Chapter 301: Suicide by poisoning
When Commander Xia returned to the mansion with ginseng, Lu Qingzi and Qian Baihan were both relieved.
Fortunately, Zhou Qingwu did not suspect how he found Wu Sisheng, otherwise it would be easy to expose this matter.
Zhou Qingwu has a lot of secret guards, if they find out that Lu Qingzi is in Qian Baihan's hands, I am afraid that Qian Baihan will not be able to get better for the rest of his life.
Qian Baihan deliberately did not write about Wu Sisheng's collusion with King Han, also because he talked too much, and he became dangerous.
"Tomorrow, I'll ask Commander Xia to take you to the prison!" Qian Baihan looked at Lu Qingzi and said, "Dressed up as a guard, I said that I was ordered to interrogate." ”
Lu Qingzi thought for a while and said to Qian Baihan: "You are still sick now, and you suddenly sent someone to the prison, if Yang Yuecheng knows, will it be unfavorable to you?" ”
Qian Baihan smiled and said slowly to her: "Although I am sick, I am still the general of this Li country, and I have not been deposed, and I sent someone to arrest him. ”
When Lu Qingzi saw him say this, he inexplicably felt that it was reasonable, so he stopped refusing it.
Lu Qingzi talked to Qian Baihan for a while, and when he saw Xia Chuli coming over with the medicine, he got up and said, "You have a good rest, I'll go back first." ”
Qian Baihan nodded and didn't say anything more.
Lu Qingzi took a look at Xia Chuli, and walked out with only a slight bow.
Early the next morning, after Lu Qingzi had eaten, he changed into the guard clothes sent by Commander Xia, and followed Commander Xia to the prison.
It's just that I didn't expect to arrive at the door of the prison, but I saw that Yang Yuecheng had just arrived at the door.
Xia Tong arched his hand at Yang Yuecheng and said, "My subordinates have seen General Yang." ”
Yang Yuecheng looked at Commander Xia and asked, "Why did Commander Xia suddenly come to prison?" ”
Commander Xia said indifferently: "General Qian put the remnants of Qi in prison yesterday and specially asked me to interrogate. ”
Yang Yuecheng's eyes crossed with a trace of unhappiness, and he said to Commander Xia: "General Qian's body is not yet well, so leave this matter to General Ben to do!" Besides, His Majesty has replaced General Qian with General Ben, and this matter is also within the general's responsibility, so Commander Xia should go back! ”
Lu Qingzi listened to it, but he didn't expect that Qian Baihan had just been arrested and sent to prison yesterday, and Yang Yuecheng couldn't wait to interrogate him, and wanted to go to Zhou Qingwu to ask for credit.
No wonder Chu Lie and others look down on Yang Yuecheng, it seems that this person is indeed inferior to Qian Baihan at this moment.
"General Yang is embarrassed by his subordinates, General Qian sent me to wait, if I go back like this, General Qian will definitely be angry." Commander Xia was not moved by Yang Yuecheng's words, but only looked at him quietly and said, "I am also under orders, and I also ask General Yang not to embarrass his subordinates!" ”
Yang Yuecheng was a little annoyed and said: "Since Your Majesty has handed over the position of General Qian to General Ben as an agent, you don't have to worry about this matter from your generals, come and send Commander Xia out!" ”
Seeing that Yang Yuecheng was going to forcibly send Commander Xia away, Lu Qingzi couldn't help but speak: "General Qian's position is represented by General Yang, but General Qian has not been deposed, and now he can't even interrogate the rest of the Qi State that he caught?" Didn't General Yang want to usurp power? ”
Lu Qingzi's voice sank, and Yang Yuecheng froze in place for a while.
Commander Xia immediately took the opportunity to say: "Please also ask the general to give way, come here today, we will also act as ordered!" ”
The two soldiers who followed Yang Yuecheng and were about to forcibly send Commander Xia out were also shocked by Lu Qingzi at this moment, and they didn't dare to act rashly.
Yang Yuecheng glanced at Commander Xia and Lu Qingzi, and finally snorted coldly and watched Commander Xia get out of the way.
"Let's go!"
Commander Xia glanced at Yang Yuecheng, who was leading people away, and cast an approving look at Lu Qingzi.
What he said just now made him unexpected.
Lu Qingzi seemed to see through Commander Xia's thoughts, and whispered a little embarrassedly: "It was told to me by the general when I went to see the general yesterday." Otherwise, I wouldn't have thought of these words for a while. ”
Yang Yuecheng was in a rage just now, Lu Qingzi looked bored, if it weren't for what Qian Baihan said yesterday, I'm afraid that she would only be able to think of these things if Commander Xia came out of here with her.
Commander Xia smiled and lowered his voice to Lu Qingzi: "Miss is too modest, let's go in!" ”
Lu Qingzi nodded, and entered the prison with the commander of Xia, the light in this prison was very dim, and as soon as he entered, he felt a cold air, compared to the scorching sun outside, it was very cool here.
"Commander Xia!" The prison warden, Commander Xia, who was in charge of the prison, brought people over, and immediately stepped forward and said, "Commander Xia is here to interrogate the remnants of the Qi State who were sent yesterday?" ”
Commander Xia nodded, "Well, I came on the orders of General Qian, and I asked the front to lead the way." ”
The warden answered, leading the way, and after a while, Lu Qingzi saw Wu Sisheng who was locked alone in a cell.
He was sitting on the hay, and there were already some wounds on his body, and it seemed that Yang Yuecheng had tortured him.
The prison warden opened the cell door, and Commander Xia walked in with Lu Qingzi, Wu Sisheng closed his eyes, as if he had fallen into a coma, and did not notice their arrival.
Commander Xia glanced at the warden and said, "You go out first!" I'll call you over if there's something. ”
The warden answered, and exited the cell.
"Wu Sisheng!"
Commander Xia drank his name, and only then did he slowly open his eyes and look at the two people in front of him.
"Where is the whitening?" Commander Xia looked at Wu Sisheng and asked.
Wu Sisheng sneered and said, "I don't know." ”
Lu Qingzi didn't expect that at this time, Wu Sisheng could still be so hard-mouthed.
She just wanted to take a step forward, but saw Xia Tong take a step ahead and came to Wu Sisheng, looked at him and said, "You don't say it's okay, there are a total of ninety-one tortures in this prison, I hope you can stand it!" ”
Wu Sisheng's heart trembled, he was used to torture people before, so he naturally knew what kind of pain it was.
If you have used all of these one by one, I am afraid that you will be disabled even if you don't die.
At this moment, Wu Sisheng heard Commander Xia say this, and his face couldn't help showing a trace of horror, but this panic was fleeting, he looked at Commander Xia and said, "Even if you torture me all the time, I won't tell you the whereabouts of Lord Bai." ”
As he spoke, a pill appeared in his hand and threw it into his mouth.
"He's going to take poison!" Lu Qingzi let out a low breath, "Stop him." ”
Before the words fell, Commander Xia had already slashed Wu Sisheng with a hand knife, and before he could swallow the medicine, he had already spit it out.
Lu Qingzi breathed a sigh of relief, he didn't expect Wu Sisheng to be so sincere to Bai Fanghua, and would rather commit suicide by taking poison than tell his whereabouts.
