“Yes.”
Su Qing nodded. She wanted to interrogate them personally.
When thieves looked at people, they were sneaky and focused on different things. The eyes of an informer were different from that of an ordinary person. A real beggar would focus on the people walking past him, but these two people kept looking toward the government office.
“Alright, thank you, Miss Su.”
Cheng Yu admired Su Qing very much. He had thought that it would not be easy to dig out his spies. He even wanted to search every house if it was complicated to find them. As long as they kept pigeons, he would lock them up.
The matter of Mo City could not be leaked to the capital. If the Wan Family Army came, they would not be able to resist. Right now, they are still weak.
Su Qing walked into the prison. The prison in Mo City was very shabby. There were only three cells. At this time, the cells were not reinforced with concrete. They were only locked in with wooden railings.
Because the Zhizhou of Mo City had escaped, and the people imprisoned in this prison were honest, Cheng Yu decided to let them all go. Otherwise, there would be no food for these prisoners to eat. It was too cruel to starve them to death.
The prison was covered with straw, which had not been changed for a long time. It gave off a rotten smell and the smell of feces and urine.
The beggars locked up in the prison were terrified and trembled in fear.
However, the eyes of the two people Su Qing suspected were rolling around. Although they looked nervous, they were different from ordinary beggars. They were thinking about how to explain themselves and how to get away.
“Bring these two over.”
Su Qing pointed at the two beggars and asked the leader to take them to the interrogation room.
There were all kinds of torture devices in the interrogation room in the prison. One could still see the mottled blood stains on the wall in the dim light. The old and new blood stains overlapped each other, and coupled with those creepy torture devices, people were already terrified as soon as they entered. They were frightened before they were tortured.
Su Qing sat behind the interrogation table and looked expressionlessly at the two beggars being dragged into the interrogation room.
“Sir, please spare my life! Sir, please spare my life!”
The two beggars knelt on the ground and begged Su Qing for mercy.
“You want me to spare your life?”
Su Qing looked at them coldly. Her gaze was extremely penetrating as if she could see through all their thoughts.
“Yes … It was … Lord, please spare my life.”
The two beggars felt a chill run down their spines when Su Qing looked at them like that. They felt as if Su Qing’s gaze had cut them into pieces.
“Alright, as long as you tell me honestly how to contact Prime Minister Wan. How often did you report? What tools did you use to send secret messages? Tell me, and I’ll spare you.”
Su Qing looked at them indifferently and said.
“… We don’t understand what you’re saying, sir.”
The two beggars’ eyes flashed with fear before they quickly quibbled.
“You don’t understand? Alright, come and torture them. Let them go through all these torture tools.”
Su Qing wanted to see how tough Prime Minister Wan’s bones were. She sat behind the interrogation table and watched them calmly put on the torture devices, screaming in pain. Therefore, she didn’t give them the Tendon Splitting and Bone Disintegrating Pill at the beginning.
After a set of torture tools was used, the two men lay on the ground like dead dogs whose bones had been extracted. They were covered in blood and cold sweat, struggling to survive. However, even so, they still did not say a word.
“Miss Su, could you have made a mistake?”
The leader looked conflicted. He felt guilty about torturing ordinary people and came over to plead for them.
H H
The leader was so frightened that he immediately stepped back. Su Qing glanced at him indifferently. Miss Su had such a strong aura. Her gaze was too oppressive. It was the gaze of a superior. There was no room for doubt, and it was highly dignified.
“Your bones are quite hard. 1’11 give you two pills then!”
Su Qing stood up from behind the interrogation table and walked towards them with her hands behind her back. Her calm voice sent a chill down the two’s spines. When they saw Su Qing’s dark eyes that were as cold and fierce as the abyss, the two could not help but curl up into a ball and shut their mouths.
Their instincts told them the torture tools added together were not as terrifying as these two pills.
“Give them the medicine.”
Su Qing handed the two pills to the leader. This young man was brave during the war and always rushed to the front, but he was a little soft-hearted. It was not surprising. In his heart, he believed that these two people were ordinary people.
The leader was very conflicted, but when he remembered the lieutenant’s order, he still took the medicine and walked toward the two beggars.
“Spare me, spare me.”
The two beggars crawled back in fear and begged loudly. The leader gritted his teeth and made up his mind. He pinched their cheeks and stuffed the medicine into their mouths.
“All… Bah!”
The two of them felt that the medicine melted as soon as it entered their throats and went down their throats into their stomachs. They were so scared that they choked and vomited, but ultimately, they could not spit the medicine out.
Su Qing looked at them coldly. She had done many cruel things to her enemies. Compassion would only harm her.
The two beggars were writhing on the ground like cocoons in just a few moments. All parts of their bodies were in unbearable pain. All the bones in their bodies seemed to have been broken into pieces. Their skin seemed to be about to crack, and there appeared to be countless bugs gnawing and crawling in their meridians. The pain was simply unbearable.
The two of them scratched the ground with all their might as their bodies rolled around. Their eyeballs were about to pop out of their sockets from the pain, and their entire faces turned the color of pig liver.
Su Qing looked down at them and counted the time silently. These two people were tough. They had lasted for a minute.
“I’ll talk, 1’11 talk.”
The two of them were in unbearable pain. They wished they were dead. Ultimately, they could not bear it anymore and raised their hands to surrender.
While Su Qing helped Cheng Yu find Prime Minister Wan’s spy in Mo City, Ji Shuisheng and Yang Zhi went to Jin City to save the child.
Although the child was in the An Family Army camp, it was unsafe.
Ji Shuisheng had originally thought that the An Family would not harm these children and would use them to bring down the Wan family.
However, there was a hidden danger in thinking about this now. If the An family reported it to the emperor and the emperor wanted to punish the Wan family, would the Wan family be able to surrender?
If the Wan family were afraid that the matter would be exposed and stopped them on the way, they would cruelly kill the children and disappear without a trace. The children would become the victims of the An family and the Wan family’s battle.
Along the way, Ji Shuisheng was burning with anxiety. As long as he arrived in time before the children went to the capital, he could save the children safely with the help of Brother Yang and the others.
When they arrived at Jin City, it was already dark. Ji Shuisheng dismounted and said to Yang Zhi,
“Brother Yang, 1’11 go into the military camp first to find the children’s exact location.”
“I’ll go with you so that we can take care of each other.”
Yang Zhi was worried. If Shuisheng went alone into the heavily guarded military camp, there would be no one to help him if there was danger.
“We have a bigger target in numbers.”
Ji Shuisheng disagreed. He was confident he could come and go freely, but it was not necessarily the case if he brought Yang Zhi along. Moreover, the two were big targets and would be easily discovered.
“Alright, you must be careful.”
Yang Zhi had no choice but to agree and remind Ji Shuisheng to be careful.
Although the An family’s military camp seemed heavily guarded, loopholes still existed. Their military discipline was not strict. Although there were people standing guard, they were all absent-minded and only focused on chatting. They were not very responsible.
Ji Shuisheng found an opportunity to sneak into the military camp. He still remembered and went straight to the tent where the children lived. After the patrol left, Ji Shuisheng only sneaked into the tent. As soon as he stepped into the tent, he stepped into a trap and fell rapidly into the pit..
