"Cellar?"

Hearing this, Lu Zhaoyi asked him to lead the way.

As she walked, she asked, "Before Your Majesty came today, did you go to Yin Yamen in Henan first?"

"Yes, yes!" Lin Chang said frankly.

If this is the case, then it should be as I guessed, Xia Pei asked people to send it, and now in the cellar, it is a person, or the person who went to Henan Yin to find Li Qian.

"Is it Ruan Sanniang?"

Lin Chang nodded.

Thinking of this, Lu Zhaoyi couldn't help but speed up his pace, and soon, led by Lin Chang, he came to the cellar in his mouth.

Inside the cellar, the lights are on.

Walking all the way down the steps, I looked up and saw that in the depths of this cellar, Ruan Sanniang, who was guarded by the shadow guards, was now bound by iron chains, with heavy shackles and leg shackles, looking extremely embarrassed.

She was dying, her hair was disheveled, her face was as pale as paper, her lips were blue, her body was trembling, and her body was full of signs of torture.

If you become a prisoner, you will definitely not be able to escape torture.

"You know, why are you still alive until now? That's because you're still useful." Lu Zhaoyi slowly approached her and said coldly.

Ruan Sanniang raised her head weakly, staring at her with resentful eyes, and suddenly laughed, laughing miserably.

"Gou Chen is immortal, and the national enemy is immortal!" She gritted her teeth and shouted with all her might.

Hearing this, Lu Zhaoyi raised his eyebrows slightly.

She heard calluses in her ears, and she didn't pay attention to it at all.

"Feng Shicheng has already killed himself, your plan has been completely shattered, without this pillar of revenge, where else can you go rampant?"

But looking at Ruan Sanniang, her face was very calm, and she sneered again and again, "What kind of thing is Feng Shicheng? His death will not affect the lord's plans in the slightest."

As soon as the words fell, Lu Zhaoyi's pupils suddenly shrank, and his eyes were full of disbelief, "Feng Shicheng is not the mastermind? He's a pawn too?"

In all this conspiracy, there are still people who have not yet been dug up?

Recall again, the slogan of "Hook up is immortal, national enmity is immortal", except that the original Lingguo evolved through her and the fifth's strategic contest and peace talks.

As for the Jing Kingdom, the Yue Kingdom, and the Nanling Kingdom, they were all returned to the mountains and rivers in exchange for bloody wars.

There is a great possibility that this slogan was not just shouted by the people of the former Yue Kingdom.

Now the most suspicious thing is the Nanling forces, and what kind of role Ruan Gong plays here still needs to be found out step by step.

This point can be doubted first, but the important thing is to ask for clues about the death of her father Lu Yong.

Thinking of this, she grabbed it, pinched the other party's shoulders fiercely, and stared at her deadly: "My father Lu Yong, the former Shangluo County Taishou, do you know who killed him?"

"Yes, but ...... I'm not going to say that?" Ruan Sanniang raised her eyes weakly, with an evil smile on her face.

"Humph!"

Lu Zhaoyi sneered contemptuously, "Nanling people, are they all as hard-mouthed as you? Or is this matter related to the old Nanling royal family?"

Silent, the other party just shook his head.

"It's okay!" Lu Zhaoyi let go of her, took a few steps back, and his voice was hoarse, "I have a lot of ways to make you speak, there are thirty-six kinds of one hundred and thirty-nine torture tools in the Wei Ying, you can try them all the same, see if you still say it!"

「…… You, how dare you ......."

When Ruan Sanniang heard this, her face turned pale and frightened.

But this fear couldn't stop Lu Zhaoyi's pace, seeing her turn around, she walked aside, pulled out the red-baked soldering iron from the fire, and walked towards her step by step.

"Lu Qiniang, you can't ...... You can't ...... like that."

Ruan Sanniang struggled desperately, but her hands had already been tied, no matter how hard she tried, she just couldn't move, and she could only look at the hot red-dyed soldering iron dangling in front of her.

Once hit on the body, it will be burned and incurable, and paralyzed or even worse

Died in agony.

But she also knew that before she told the clues she knew, Lu Zhaoyi would not let her die easily.

"Didn't you say it? To maintain your ...... Sovereign?"

Lu Zhaoyi held the soldering iron and smiled like a flower, "Then give you two ways, one is to confess honestly, and the other is to be tortured obediently!" I'll give you a moment, think about it!"

"I...... I...... I said......"

Ruan Sanniang was forced to beg for mercy constantly, she knew that if she really didn't confess, she would inevitably die rather than live.

Seeing that she was soft, Lu Zhaoyi no longer forced her, so she threw the soldering iron in her hand aside and sat on the steps to listen to her.

"Four years ago, my father and I went to Shangluo County, and at that time, Lu Taishou seemed to be unhappy with the two Taishou of Beidi County and Feng Yi County. The next day, when my father and I were about to leave the city, we heard that Lu Taishou had died of illness."

After Ruan Sanniang finished speaking, she closed her mouth with a look of vigilance.

"And then?" Lu Zhaoyi's face was expressionless.

"After Lu Taishou died, the two counties of Beidi and Feng Yi left Shangluo in a panic."

Speaking of this, she raised her eyes and glanced at Lu Zhaoyi vigilantly, and said solemnly, "I swear, this matter has nothing to do with my family lord and my father, and I just accidentally discovered it back then."

"Then why didn't you say it before?"

With this roar, Ruan Sanniang suddenly fainted in fright, and she didn't reveal the reason.

Lu Zhaoyi frowned, turned her head to leave, and at the same time ordered, sent someone to continue to take care of her, and then walked out of the cellar with Lin Chang.

She had a hunch that this matter was not as simple as it seemed.

Or maybe back then, her father was killed by inadvertently learning a big secret.

Thinking of this, she exhaled heavily.

As soon as he came out, Lin Chang couldn't wait to hurriedly confess to her, "In the past few months, great changes have taken place in various prefectures and counties, Guanzhong counties and Shangluo County have been abolished, and Taihua Mountain is the boundary, the east is included in Hongnong County, and the west is merged into Jingzhaoyin."

He paused, and then said, "Moreover, according to Brother Yang, it should be that in the near future, Jingzhao Yin will be removed from Yin and renamed Jingzhao County."

"I see."

Her state was obviously a little unrelenting, and she didn't take a few steps and turned back, "By the way, go and check, who were the county guards of Beidi and Feng Yi in Guanzhong back then?"

"Okay." He answered, and he set out.

"Also, I want you to find someone." She stopped the person again, "This person's name is Xu Shen, he was the governor of Beidi County back then, and then he was the general of Jingzhao, and after the opening of the dynasty, he resigned from his official position and returned to Guanzhong to cultivate the land."

After explaining, she walked out on her own.

All this that Ruan Sanniang knew from her mouth seemed to be completely different from what she had investigated before, and she also complained about the chaos in Guanzhong back then, and soon after Wugong unified the north, the generals of Jingzhao Yin Lantian Guan rebelled, causing ten dead and nine wounded in the garrisons of the two places.

Shangluo County is the closest to Lantian Pass, and many of the characters have also been lost, which makes it more difficult for her to explore.

And right now, Ruan Sanniang's statement of this matter is indeed extremely important, and it is really an unexpected surprise to return the direction of future investigation to the right path.

However, in her heart, she was still nervous, and she always felt that something was missing, and these details did not seem to be so easy to find.

"What are you thinking? Qi Niang." Huazhi suddenly appeared beside her, saw her in a trance, and asked.

Lu Zhaoyi retracted his thoughts, shook his head, and said, "It's nothing."

After a brief reply, she turned around and asked, "What news have you received in the past two days?"

Hanade nodded.

"The letter from the Captain was delivered two hours ago, and they will be able to return to Beijing in about three days."

"That kid seems to have worshipped Mr. Fifth as his teacher."

Hearing about Gu Man being the fifth Langya's apprentice, Lu Zhaoyi smiled with a smile on his face, "Xiaoman is not small, it's okay to follow the fifth."

Huazhi also thought so, "Xiaoman, that kid, has a stubborn temperament, but his brain is very good.

He might be able to learn a lot from Mr. Five, right?"

The two returned to the bedroom, and while Hua Zhi was washing up, she was talking about the news that Qinyu Pavilion had received in recent days.

She had been listening casually, but when she heard one of them, her eyes suddenly lit up, and she hurriedly grabbed Hua Zhi's hand holding the hair comb.

"What did you just say? Say it again."

Hua Zhi blinked and expressed doubt, but could only listen to her meaning, and repeated honestly, "Sanjiang Pavilion has a large area of ownerless land, and now Shangluo has returned to Jingzhao, and most of the people in Guanzhong have entered Jingzhou through Wuguan and gone to Sanjiang Pavilion to farm."

"Sanjiang Pavilion?" Lu Zhaoyi stared, muttering the name of the place, but he had a strange feeling in his heart.

"That's right, that's right."

She muttered in her mouth, and instructed Huazhi to go to get the map of the intersection of Yongzhou and Jingzhou, and there seemed to be an idea that kept popping up in her heart.
