098 Don't say anything about death
Just as a new round of rumors drowned out the old rumors of Huang Hongfei and Mingyue eloping with an unstoppable momentum, Jin Qiaoer was quietly brought to He Zhizhou by Green Sleeves and Red Fei.
The dungeon at night was shrouded in firelight, which was a little more eerie and cold than during the day.
Jin Qiao'er, who was still smiling proudly in her sleep, was suddenly thrown to the ground, and she couldn't help but shiver when she was wearing only white clothes. She was tied with her hands behind her back, and her mouth was gagged, and she was frightened and didn't know what to do, but when she looked up, she saw a slender and handsome figure standing opposite her.
In front of him was a large stove filled with hot red coals, and he hung his head slightly, his slender and beautiful fingers as if inadvertently fiddling with the reddening soldering iron burning in the coals. As if he didn't notice that there was a sudden extra person in this space, he still lowered his head slightly, and the light and shadow of the candle flame hit his face, and the darkness made it impossible to distinguish.
But Jin Qiao'er recognized it at a glance, her pupils shrank sharply, and at first she showed a look of surprise in disbelief, and then looked at the face that she couldn't get tired of looking at.
......The longer you stay, the more you can feel the cold chill in the dungeon slowly soaking her limbs, and the cold Jin Qiao'er couldn't help but whine.
He Zhizhou slowly raised his head, but still didn't look at her, only gently lifted the soldering iron that had been buried in the charcoal fire, and the soldering iron was red like blood, emitting faint white smoke. His gaze was firmly fixed on the iron, and his eyes were long and gloomy.
"Where did you get her?" He asked coldly.
Green Sleeves stepped forward, loosened the tie for Jin Qiao'er, and pulled out the handkerchief that was stuffed in her mouth.
Jin Qiao'er's gaze still fell on He Zhizhou's delicate and beautiful face without the slightest flaw, even if he was expressionless, even if he was full of coldness, she still felt that she was about to faint with happiness. How long had it been since she had seen him so presumptuously?
"Cousin Zhou......" She looked confused and obsessed, as if she was afraid of waking up from some sweet dream, and whispered: "Am I dreaming again......"
She could only see He Zhizhou in her eyes, and she couldn't see her own situation and the soldering iron in He Zhizhou's hand at all.
He Zhizhou didn't even look at her, only glanced at the green sleeves with his eyelids.
Green Sleeves hurriedly walked to him, took the soldering iron in his hand, walked back to Jin Qiao'er in a few steps, and lightly imprinted the soldering iron in his hand on her waist without hesitation.
"Ahh The terrible and painful screams rushed into the ears and made people shudder.
The smell of burnt meat fills the air instantly, and the place where it is scorched with a soldering iron still makes a sizzling sound.
Green Sleeves put the soldering iron back, she hated Jin Qiao'er very much in her heart, and she wanted to torture her to death immediately, but she also knew the proportion, before the prince asked for the news of the princess, she couldn't die, and she couldn't let her faint like this.
The originally delicate and beautiful woman was lying on the dirty floor covered in cold sweat at this time, she gasped for breath, and her well-trimmed nails were almost buckled into the floor, leaving several shocking scratches with blood stains on the floor. However, in this dark prison, no one pitied her.
She lay on the floor as if she was dying, but her eyes stubbornly widened as she looked at the man who was still looking at her condescendingly.
How beautiful, but how ruthless!
"I ...... What did I do that my cousin wanted to do to me? She endured the sharp pain in her waist and desperately moved towards him little by little.
"Who instructed you?" He Zhizhou's gaze did not show a trace of emotion, and he looked at her coldly towards him, with only deep disgust and coldness in the depths of his eyes. "Say it, and this king may spare your life."
Jin Qiao'er seemed to be exhausted, she stopped her movements dejectedly, and the mouth that was still panting burst out of laughter intermittently, she laughed for a long time, and the strange laughter was like a ghost, but she couldn't stop.
He Zhizhou's patience had run out, time was too precious for him, and one more moment of delay would make Mingyue a little farther away from him. He didn't know who she had fallen into, and he didn't dare to think about how she would be treated. Every time she thinks of the hardships she may endure, He Zhizhou can't wait to cut Jin Qiao'er in front of her with a thousand knives!
"Cousin, you're so ...... to me It's so ruthless. Jin Qiao'er laughed enough, before she stopped, she still looked at He Zhizhou, and her pale little face was already full of tears after laughing wildly, "Do you want to find her?" I won't tell you, if you have the ability, you will kill me! Kill me, and you'll never find her! ”
He Zhizhou narrowed his eyes slightly.
He always thought that Jin Qiao'er was a woman who was spoiled by the eldest princess who was arrogant and brainless, and he thought that if he scared and scared her, she would say everything, but he didn't expect that she also had a hard bone. Interrogation was not his strong point, and he didn't want to look at Jin Qiao'er more, so he turned around and walked out, "Call Xiao Dalai." ”
This night, He Zhizhou's study was brightly lit.
On this night, the screams in the secret prison of the unknown Prince Regent's palace did not stop for a moment.
This night, how many people were busy, but in vain.
When the sky was about to dawn, Xiao Dacai came to He Zhizhou, and he couldn't remember how many people he had interrogated over the years, but Jin Qiao'er made him remember it deeply for many days to come.
"Lord Wang, your subordinates are incompetent." Xiao Da knelt down in front of He Zhizhou and pleaded guilty.
He has tried a lot of methods for Jin Qiaoer, some of which are not even carried by ordinary men, but Jin Qiaoer looks delicate and weak, and has been raised since childhood, but he gritted his teeth and refused to spit until now. He knew the importance of Jin Qiao'er, and he didn't dare to kill people too ruthlessly, and he was afraid that he would not be able to find Princess Mingyue when the time came.
He Zhizhou slowly raised his eyes to look at him, "She still refuses to say." ”
"She said she wouldn't say it when she died." Xiao Da was very ashamed, and for the first time, he smashed the master's explanation, "The subordinates threatened her with the Dingguo Mansion, but she was unmoved, and the subordinates took the princess too long to threaten her, but she still refused to say it." Her subordinates couldn't find her weakness for a while, and she kept asking the prince to talk to her in person. ”
"How many batches of people chased out yesterday have come back?" He Zhizhou closed his eyes slightly, he didn't close his eyes all night, arranged people, and waited for the news to come back from all directions, but the whole night passed, and no one found the whereabouts of Mingyue and his party.
Huang Hongfei said that the man took Mingyue and left in a carriage. In just one day, it was impossible for him to escape from the territory of Daliang with Mingyue, and he ordered all the towns near Shangjing to be blocked and investigated, but there was no news to send back. Not only was there no news, but even suspicious people were not found.
"Almost all of them came back, and they chased down the forks in the road, but they found nothing. This matter is very strange, the man with the princess, as if he disappeared out of thin air. Xiao Da secretly raised his eyes and glanced at He Zhizhou, although he was still very calm, but for some reason, he could feel the storm-like anger that he was trying to suppress under his calmness.
The person was lost in the capital, not to mention the capital, that is, the entire beam, almost all of them are in the hands of the prince, but now, the prince who thinks he is in control of everything, but he can't even find the person who was lost in the Yong'an Hou Mansion, how can he not be annoyed? In addition, the person who lost it can see at a glance that the prince loves her heavily, and the first time the prince loves a woman so much, she is afraid that she will feel uncomfortable.
"Nearby towns have sent more manpower, and in addition, isolated villages in the suburbs have also been the focus of investigation, and it has only been a day, no matter how capable he is, it is impossible for him to escape from the beam in one day. What's more, Huang Hongfei said that there are a lot of them, and such a large group of people, if they are traveling together, they must be very conspicuous, and they will always show some traces if they are not careful. He Zhizhou closed his eyes forcefully, and commanded in a dumb voice.
He can carry out a carpet search, and if he doesn't believe it, he can't find Mingyue in the end. But he couldn't let go of the clues on Jin Qiao'er's side, so He Zhizhou got up and planned to go to the dungeon to see Jin Qiao'er.
But at this moment, a servant hurriedly came to say, "Lord, the prince of the Marquis of Yong'an accompanied the third prince to visit, saying that he had come to thank the prince for saving his life." ”
Huang Hongfei was injured a lot, He Zhizhou knew in his heart that he had been trapped in his secret prison for a long time, and then there was a powerful injury medicine, so he was afraid that it would be a little difficult to get out of bed. He must have remembered something again when he came over in such a hurry.
He Zhizhou's eyes lit up, and he took two steps forward almost out of shape, "Quick, invite someone in!" ”
Du Shiqi had always been worried that he would offend the high-ranking and powerful regent by holding out the three princes, until yesterday the regent sent the injured three princes back to the Yong'an Hou Mansion with great fanfare, and he immediately understood that this was He Zhizhou's hint to him, and this was also an important opportunity for him to Yong'an Hou Mansion and the three princes.
Although He Zhizhou did not clearly express his intention to support or cooperate, he made the world suspect that the little emperor had committed murder of the three princes in the desperate situation of the Yong'an Marquis Mansion and the three princes, which was in itself a dissatisfaction with the little emperor. Du Shiqi never dreamed that the turnaround between the Yong'an Hou Mansion and the Three Princes would be because of a woman. It can be seen from this that the regent cares about the woman who disappeared in the Yong'an Hou Mansion.
Thinking of this, Du Shiqi felt stuffed again, although the regent did not ask the blame on the Yong'an Hou Mansion, but the person was lost in the Yong'an Hou Mansion, and it was good to get it back, if it can't be found, will the Yong'an Hou Mansion be angry with the regent?
He was happy and sad and lamented, and listened to the little guy who took care of Huang Hongfei and said that Huang Hongfei had to come to the Regent's Mansion. He wanted to reprimand him for fooling around, but after thinking about it carefully, this trip may not be an opportunity, and it also happened to probe the regent's attitude towards the Yong'an Marquis Mansion. I thought that the regent would be very embarrassed for them before he would be willing to see them, but who would have thought that not only did he enter the gate of the palace smoothly, but the regent couldn't wait to welcome him out of the study.
Du Shiqi hurriedly stepped forward with a smile on his face, "Lord Wang......"
He Zhizhou didn't look at him, his burning eyes only fell on Huang Hongfei, who was lying in the soft chair with a pale face, and casually instructed the executives around him, "Take the prince to the flower hall for tea." ”
Dusqi: "......"
He's not here to beg for tea!
