Chapter 46: If you want to wear a crown, you must bear its weight

The guards in the palace are all shrewd and skillful. There is still some research on the aspect of torture. And it's been so many years since the founding of the country, and I'm quite experienced in dealing with these dead soldiers, spies, etc.

In the gloomy dungeon, Fu Yan sat at the table in the center, with a pair of slender hands, beating the table rhythmically, making people feel very depressed. At this moment, he had already put away the salted fish mentality in front of everyone, but instead showed a gloomy look, like the super villain mentioned in the book.

There is a saying that how to say, oh, Taoguang is obscure, avoid its edge, and finally hit the fatal blow. But judging from today's situation, it was he who pretended to be too much, which fueled Fu Jing's arrogance. dared to hire a murderer to assassinate him so blatantly.

"Ahh Suddenly, a shout erupted from the quiet dungeon, shattering the silence of the dungeon.

Fu Yan looked over there when he heard the sound, and saw a man in plain clothes, a handsome face, and a bookish smell slowly walked out from inside.

"Your Majesty." The man bowed to Fu Yan, Fu Yan nodded at him, and let him get up. In private, there is no need for such a lot of courtesy.

"Zhuqing, how's it going?" Fu Yan asked with a smile.

The man who called Zhu Qing also smiled, he raised his head and said, "Aren't you still worried about my medical skills?" ”

"Of course I'm relieved." Fu Yan shook his head and told Zhu Qing that he had expressed his attitude.

If he can't even trust Zhu Qing's medical skills, I'm afraid it will be difficult to find something in this world that can be trusted by him. After all, Zhu Qing studied under that gentleman, and he got the essence of Mr. , and he was a rare opponent in the world. And he is very principled, and all the people he has saved have praised his miraculous doctor.

"Your Majesty, the time is almost up. They were already able to speak. Zhu Qing looked inside the prison, calculated the time in his heart, and thought that it was almost over, so he bowed to Fu Yan and said.

The royal family has a lot of connections with his mentor, so he has been working hard for His Majesty. What's more, his little junior sister is still staying in Fu Yan's harem.

When Fu Yan heard Zhu Qing say that the time had come, he rested his fatigue a little, and walked in slowly with a natural majesty when he got up. Zhu Qing followed behind Fu Yan and did not squint.

This dungeon is not too big or too small, but the protective measures are very good. Surrounded by well-trained guards, it can be seen that the emperor has put his heart into it.

In fact, the tradition of the dungeon has been passed down from the founding emperor. It is said that because the country was undecided, the spies on the frontier fished in troubled waters and entered Shengjing, and were finally caught, and the emperor set up a dungeon in order to facilitate the extortion of confessions. But, in every sense of the word, this dungeon is really not a good place to be. If you want to come here, it will be the consequence of nine deaths.

Fu Yan took Zhu Qing and walked straight to the torture room, and after the guards at the door saw him, they all saluted Fu Yan.

Fu Yan looked through the crack in the door and saw that a person with his head bowed and covered in scars was hanging, as if he was dying.

"Recruited?" Fu Yan asked coldly.

"Back to Your Majesty, this kid has recruited everything." The guard standing in the middle of the doorway replied in a low voice. It seemed that he was the leader of this group of guards.

Fu Yan snorted coldly when he heard this, so he directly pushed the door open and walked in without care.

"I'd like to hear what he's going to do."

Hearing the sound of the door, the hanging Assassin struggled to raise his head, trying to see who was coming. But after seeing that the person who came was Fu Jing, his face covered by his hair changed.

"Dogs... Emperor? A terrible voice rang out. Fu Yan subconsciously glanced at Zhu Qing, and didn't answer the man's words. He is the current emperor, a prisoner, and making a lot of nonsense here will only make people think of him as a joke. Occasionally, some sympathetic people may pity him, but it is no different from pity for a dog.

"Although his chin was taken by the minister, it was only an urgent need, and now he can only speak like this." Zhu Qing saw Fu Yan looking over, and he looked frank.

Fu Yan nodded, not thinking too much. Just kidding, Zhu Qing can make the jaw that has just been broken not long ago on the street and let him speak normally, this is already a medical miracle. Naturally, he didn't be too harsh.

After waiting for Fu Yan to sit down, the head of the guard just now walked up to the prisoner, lifted the bloodstained hair on his head, and then gestured to the people on both sides.

They all do this, and their every move is naturally very tacit. After receiving the message from his own head, he picked up two basins of cold water that had been prepared a long time ago, and the two of them poured them on the prisoner's body one after the other.

The wounds on the prisoner's body were all fresh, and he suddenly poured a basin of cold water, although it was cold, but I am afraid it was not very comfortable.

Sure enough, after the two basins of water were poured on him, the prisoner began to scream. It hurts, it hurts. I have to say that these people are really capable, and their ability to torture people is strong enough.

This time, the locked guy suddenly came to his senses, and he stared at Fu Yan sitting in front of him, like a wild leopard that was still breathing but not losing its wildness, which made people feel cold in their hearts when they saw it. But Fu Yan is not a good person, he was not stunned at all in the face of this kind of look, but greeted him with interest.

But after all, it was only a final struggle, and it didn't take long for the prisoner to retract his gaze, and the whole person drooped.

"What do you want to know?" The man said this with difficulty, and his jaw still hurt. But that's light, at least he's still alive. And those who were with him have been thrown into mass graves at this moment.

It stands to reason that he is a dead man, and he should not be afraid of death, and even do his best for death. But it's a pity that his courage is very small, although he was cultivated by the killer tissue, but his courage is really small, and besides, he is a novice, and this year the novice has no knack to kneel, it's not a big problem, right? Well, not a big problem.

"Tsk." Fu Yan didn't ask him in a hurry, first smacked his tongue at his shameless behavior, and then said, "Tell me, the person behind you." ”

There are no unorganized and unplanned assassinations in the world, and everyone knows this. So more or less, the assassinated will have some eyebrows.

"Hey, the emperor is really good at pretending." The man made another strange tone, which sounded harsh. "Don't you know everything?"

Fu Yan heard what he said, and he was noncommittal. He did know, but that didn't stop him from asking.

"I ask you, and you just say it." Fu Yan snorted coldly and replied.

The man laughed a few times, but under the cold gaze of the guards around him, he still withdrew his smile and said slowly: "The person who sent us is naturally the person who has been spying on your throne for a long time. ”

"You're talking nonsense, there are more people snooping on my throne. Not to mention the close, even those barbarians on the frontier don't want to attack our Hua Dynasty and pull me off the throne all the time. ”

"And the one who wants to pull you off the horse the most is not your good brother, Fu Jing, the king of Xiangyang?" The man said, with a sneer in his words.

"You don't know, do you? His Majesty the Emperor who loves to pretend to be garlic. ”

Before they were caught today, they all thought that the current emperor was a straw bale. Of course, he had always thought so before he was taken to prison. But when he saw this dungeon, and watched his original companions being tortured to death one by one, when he saw Fu Jing sneering in front of him, he thought that this guy was a straw bag, and he was a head show.

This guy is a tiger in a fox's fur. Beneath his straw bag appearance, he has a murderous heart that doesn't blink. Compared to him, Fu Jing can be regarded as gentle. Therefore, the original old emperor was really accurate in his view of people, and choosing Fu Yan as the crown prince may be his smartest decision.

"Huh, so what was his original plan?" Fu Yan asked.

"My royal brother is the most clever, knowing that the matter is exposed, I don't believe he didn't leave a back hand for himself."

"He really didn't." Unexpectedly, the man spoke before Fu Yan's words had completely fallen.

"Your Majesty, this younger brother of yours, I'm afraid I don't have any hope for this assassination." The man laughed self-deprecatingly.

"We're just pawns he sent to test you, and I came in to understand how someone as thoughtful as him could do such a stupid thing as buying murderous assassinations."

"It's nothing more than that he's letting us explore the way."

Fu Yan listened to the man's words, and his face was a little unpleasant. The truth of his words naturally does not need to be doubted, people are at the end of the road, and there is no point in telling lies. What's more, he is just working hard for Fu Jing, how can the cooperative relationship be so strong. Just hearing him say this, Fu Yan also thought about it in his heart. He naturally knew that his younger brother would not do such a thing easily, I am afraid that it was really to test him. It's just that Fu Jing has changed a lot over the years, and he doesn't dare to speculate.

Fu Jing knew what he wanted to know, and the rest of the things only needed to be left to those guards to do. In the end, the disposition of this person depends on whether the destiny of heaven allows him to survive. Fu Yan is ruthless, but he has not yet reached the point of being extremely vicious.

He looked one last last at the man who was hanging, and the man's hair was lifted to reveal a dirty face. Oh, it's a newcomer. Fu Yan thought to himself, it's no wonder if the newcomer is new. At a young age, let's go home and farm.

Fu Yan was speechless, he got up with Zhu Qing and was about to leave, and as soon as he walked to the door, he heard a faint voice behind him:

"Emperor, I advise you, don't go to the king of Xiangyang, there are people behind him who you can't beat."

Fu Yan stopped, he looked back at the prisoner deeply, only to see that after he said that, his strength was discharged, and his head tilted and he was silent.

Originally, Fu Yan planned to let him go, but he committed suicide after saying what he just said. His jaw still has some strength, and he can still bite his tongue and kill himself. What's more, he still has force in his body, and he is too familiar with such things as transporting scrap explosions.

Fu Yan didn't know why that person finally decided to give up his life and tell him these words, he only felt that another stone was pressed on his heart, and it was pressure from the outside world on him.

"When you die, do you want to put a shackle on me? That's good. Fu Yan whispered. Without hesitation, he strode out.

So many people in the world wanted to answer him, but he never let those people get their wish. If you want to wear a crown, you must bear its weight.
