Chi Ge Lao looked at Shen Haolin, Shen Cha, and Song Qiyun, who were sleepy-eyed, sitting in front of him, and a wry smile appeared on his face.

"Your Highness, Grandpa Guo, General, no matter what is urgent, you should have breakfast, right? Look at you like this, have you stayed up all night? He coughed lightly twice, "Although you are young, you should also take good care of your body, otherwise, when you reach my age, you will be worried." ”

"We'll take good care of ourselves, and we will definitely be very healthy, and we will ensure that we will live longer than you and your son."

Song Qiyun's tone was very unkind, when he was in the palace last night, he had already seen the file sent to the palace by Xuanyuan Liang and Yutai Pingchuan, and the two brothers were busy all night and came to the same conclusion as Shen Cha. Therefore, when he faced Chi Ge Lao again, his attitude was very tough, and he didn't save face for Chi Ge Lao at all.

"Your Highness, what do you mean by this?"

Chi Ge Lao felt Song Qiyun's faint anger, and felt that something was wrong, although he had already been a teacher, but he had been a lecturer in the palace, and his reputation was still there, these royal family and Gaomen disciples were still respectful when they saw themselves, like Song Qiyun blatantly fought against himself, especially disrespectful to himself, he almost never encountered it, so he felt very surprised and shocked. He looked at Song Qiyun with some puzzlement, and he didn't know if this prince had eaten something wrong with breakfast.

"Today, this king is here to interrogate you on behalf of His Majesty, so I won't say much about those polite nonsense." Song Qiyun showed a mocking smile towards Chi Ge Lao, "This king asks you, you answer, if you lie......" He waved his hand behind him, and two shadows with wolf fang whips walked to both sides of Chi Ge Lao and stood up, "Don't blame this king for not respecting the elder." ”

Chi Ge Lao looked at the shadows on his left and right, and then looked at the wolf tooth whip in their hands, on the surface, he was very well-behaved, and nodded towards a few people, indicating that he would definitely know everything and say everything, but he didn't care in his heart, to be honest, he really didn't believe that Song Qiyun dared to do it to himself. If the punishment is really used, the consequences are not something these children can afford.

Shen Cha saw what Chi Ge Lao was thinking, and raised his eyebrows at the two shadows, who received the general's instructions and waved the wolf tooth whip in their hands towards Chi Ge Lao's back.

When he was still complacent, he suddenly received a few whips on his back, which made Chi Ge's eyes darken, and he almost didn't faint. He never thought that the three children in front of him would not say anything about it, and would directly attack him.

"You ...... You ......"

"Elder Chige, you have to recognize your identity now, you are no longer the dean of Taixue, you are just a prisoner." Shen Haolin looked at Chi Ge Lao very indifferently, "Your majesty, let's save it!" ”

"By the way, I forgot to tell you that the Chi Mansion has been copied now, and the homes of your proud protégés have also been guarded by the forbidden army and the patrol battalion, and they are now too busy to take care of themselves, and they have no spare time to save you." Shen Cha smiled faintly, "So, you still listen to us honestly, otherwise, we don't know what we will do to you." ”

"You ...... How can you be like this, it's too much! ”

"It's very polite to treat you like this. Usually we will be given a hundred lashes to those who collude with foreigners and those with ulterior motives. ”

"I ...... I didn't! When will I ......"

Shen Cha stretched out his hand to interrupt Elder Chi Ge's defense and waved his hand at him.

"Whether you have colluded with foreigners, whether you have colluded with people with ulterior motives, you know it in your heart, and we know it too, so there is no need to quibble."

"I don't know what you're talking about."

"It's okay, you can think slowly, we're not in a hurry." Shen Cha waved his hand towards the shadow, "If you can't think of it, we don't mind using some means to help you reminisce about your memories." ”

Chi Ge Lao's attitude still wanted to continue to be tough, but seeing the mocking smile on Shen Cha's face, as well as the whip in the hands of the two shadows beside him, he opened his mouth a few times and closed it again. After thinking about it for a long time, he sighed softly.

"What do you want to know? As long as I know, I'll tell you. ”

"Wouldn't it be nice to do this sooner? You have to be whipped twice, do you scholars like to be cheap in your bones? Song Qiyun snorted, and saw Merlin, who was in charge of recording the confession, make a prepared gesture towards him, and gently tapped the table, "First question, Chi Hong is not your biological son, you picked it up outside, right?" ”

Hearing Song Qiyun's words, Elder Chi Ge hesitated for a while and nodded slowly.

"That's right, he's not my biological son, I saved him unintentionally." He sighed deeply, "That winter, I was ordered by the emperor to accompany Lord Zhen of the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses Division at that time to visit the soldiers at the Southwest Border Pass, and I met a group of robbers on the way back. There are people from the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses Division, and it is no problem to clean up the robbers. After all these robbers were wiped out, we learned that this was not an ordinary robber, but a group of human traffickers, who abducted a lot of children from Yancheng and wanted to sell them to Jiangnan. ”

"Among them is Chi Hong?"

"Yes!" Elder Chi Ge nodded slightly, "According to the confession of this group of criminals, they brought out a total of twenty-three children from Yancheng, seven of which they abducted from the Lantern Festival, and the remaining sixteen were bought by them from the parents of these children. It's just that the weather is cold and the road is long, and these children can't help but travel a long way, and only fifteen of the twenty-three children remain. ”

"It's quite a lot." Shen Cha looked at Shen Haolin and Song Qiyun, "It's also because the place where you rescued them is not far from Yancheng, otherwise, the number should be much less than this." ”

"The general is right, Lord Zhen said the same thing at the time. Even so, the situation of these children is not particularly good, the vast majority of children because of insufficient food, clothing, and being beaten and scolded by traffickers, born a very serious illness, three or five children have a high fever that does not go away, although later timely treatment, but also left some root causes. Chi Ge Lao looked at the three people in front of him, "There are those who don't remember the past, there are those who can't hear the sound in their ears, and there are a few who can't speak and don't interact with people." He sighed softly, "Xiao Hong just after he got well, he can't remember what happened before, he doesn't know what his name is, he doesn't know what his relatives are......" He looked at the three people in front of him and explained, "If you know what your name is, where your home is, and you are eager to go home, we all sent someone to send it back, and there are only a few children who don't want to go home and can't remember what happened to them before. ”

"Why is it other than Chi Hong?"

"After he got well, no one could approach him except me, so I had no choice but to take him home."

"In this way, he became the youngest child of the Chi family." Song Qiyun nodded, changed his words, and threw out a key question, "You actually already know from this time that Chi Hong is actually Mrs. Teng...... No, it should be said that this kid has something to do with the mysterious Tantai family, right? If it weren't for you, you wouldn't have taken him home, would you? ”
