"Wen Hui, what's wrong with you?"

From the time he finished solving Zheng Ke to returning to his residence, Liu Qi could clearly feel that Zhao Wenhui had obviously become a little silent, as if he had something on his mind.

"Uh... No, nothing. ”

But Zhao Wenhui's answer didn't want to look like it was okay at all.

Liu Qi didn't continue to ask, and after a long sigh, it was Zhao Wenhui who was puzzled.

"Why does Your Highness sigh?"

"This king originally thought that you and I had already trusted ourselves, but in the end, it turned out that I was thinking too much."

Zhao Wenhui quickly shook her head.

"No, Your Highness."

Liu Qi took a step forward and stared into her eyes.

"Since it's not, then you don't have anything to say."

Zhao Wenhui hesitated for a few seconds and lowered her head to speak.

"The little girl is just a little scared, His Royal Highness's method of punishing Zheng Ke is really too ruthless."

Liu Qi chuckled a few times.

He was not surprised that Zhao Wenhui would have such thoughts.

Not to mention him, even those officials in the lobby shuddered after hearing the punishment he said.

Zheng Ke was even worse, his legs were weak on the spot, and when he was paralyzed on the ground, he peed his pants instantly.

In any dynasty, it was a very cruel punishment.

Some people think that Ren Bi just cut off his limbs, but in fact it is a hundred times more ruthless than this.

First, the palms and soles of the feet are chopped off, and the eyes are gouged out and copper is poured into the ears to make them deaf (deaf).

He then poured medicine into his throat, cut off his tongue, and damaged his vocal cords, making him unable to speak.

Then they are stuffed into jars, and some have to cut off their noses, shave their hair, and shave their eyebrows (not just their eyebrows and hair, but their eyelashes).

Then apply a medicine that destroys the hair follicles so that they will no longer grow after they fall off, and they will never grow hair again.

Then they were pulled out one by one, and some were tired, so they simply pulled them out together.

Some people even fell off their skins, or they bleed to death during the execution.

"Wen Hui, standing in my position, you will understand, people are not ruthless, and they can't stand steadily."

"Zheng Ke's evil was even more serious than those corrupt officials, colluding with mountain bandits, extorting people's money and property, and costing countless soldiers' lives in vain."

"If it weren't for Song He's private chef report, I don't know how long I would have let him hide."

"The most important thing is that he knew about the important military situation, but he didn't report it, and such a heart is no different from treason."

"A disloyal, unkind, and unrighteous person, only by giving him the most severe punishment can he deter other officials, which is the true purpose of this king."

Zhao Wenhui stared at Liu Qi with big watery eyes, as if she didn't understand.

Looking at her stunned appearance, Liu Qi suddenly felt a little moved.

Taking advantage of General Qin Wei's absence, he thought about doing whatever he wanted.

hugged Zhao Wenhui's waist, unceremoniously kissed her lips.

"Hmm..."

Zhao Wenhui's body trembled, and the prince was too sudden.

This time, Liu Qi did not hesitate, his heart was hot, and he directly put his hand on Zhao Wenhui's belt, thinking that today, he must take a good look at this beautiful work of art.

However.

"Who!"

Zhao Wenhui quickly pushed Liu Qi away, turned around, and saw him behind him.

After looking around nervously, he quickly ran to the window.

"Wen Hui, what's wrong?"

"Your Highness, don't come here!"

Liu Qi was stunned, this was the first time he had seen Zhao Wenhui so nervous.

If you don't say that you are a practitioner, just now, when you were intoxicated, you didn't find anything.

After slowly opening the window, I saw a dart stuck in the window frame, and there was a note on it.

Zhao Wenhui took a closer look and felt that there was no problem, so she took it down and then handed it over to Liu Qi.

When I opened it, I saw a few big characters written on it.

"Someone is sneaking up tonight, be careful!"

Liu Qi didn't do much, and Zhao Wenhui was taken aback.

"Your Highness, this... This seems to be the dart that sent a message to General Bai in Jincheng. ”

Liu Qi picked it up and looked at it, there was nothing special, it was made by an ordinary blacksmith shop.

Obviously, since leaving Qingdu, there have always been people who have been protecting themselves in secret, and they have followed all the way to this Yongcheng.

You don't have to guess to know that it must be the men in black, and the master in black who said that he was "very similar".

Who are they?

Could it be the father? There's no need, if the father protects him, he can just be open, why bother?

I can't think about it so much, at least these people are certainly not enemies.

"Wen Hui, how did you find out that there are people."

"I just heard movement at the window."

Liu Qi couldn't help but have a cold sweat behind him, if Fang was an assassin, he would have already been killed in the house at this time.

"Your Highness, is what this note says true or false, and if it is true, who will be the person who attacked it?"

Liu Qi pondered carefully.

"People are unpredictable, maybe it's the Jiao Gong who looks harmless to humans and animals, or Zheng Ke's sworn friend."

"Perhaps, it's Song He's men, and maybe the remnants of those who escaped."

Speaking of this, Liu Qi's mind suddenly appeared with the figure of the white-robed man, Luo Cheng.

To say that in this Yongcheng realm, the only one who has a deep hatred for himself is Na Luo Cheng.

"If this king didn't guess wrong, it should be Na Luo Cheng and the others."

Zhao Wenhui raised her eyebrows.

"It's impossible, Your Highness, this is Yongcheng, they dare to come in and assassinate, isn't this self-defeating?"

Liu Qi chuckled.

"Silly girl, haven't you heard what it means to be dark under the lamp?"

"It's dark under the lights."

"To put it simply, the more dangerous the place, the safer it is."

"To be honest, if there is no reminder from this note, we are really unguarded, how can we guess that he Luo Cheng actually dares to bring people into this Yongcheng."

When he said this, Liu Qi had already felt a chill down his spine.

"It's just a pity that this king was still there, such a good general, just let him go, this time I have to seize the opportunity and capture him directly!"

But at this time, Zhao Wenhui asked.

"Your Highness, that's... If Luo Cheng swears not to surrender, what should he do? ”

Liu Qi's eyes suddenly burst out with a trace of ruthlessness.

"Then kill him!"

Zhao Wenhui's heart trembled.

"Your Highness, don't you always say that you like him very much? How did he turn his head, he was so decisive, saying that he was going to kill him. ”

Liu Qi turned his head to look at her, with a slight smile on his lips.

"I forgot what this king just told you, people are not ruthless, and they can't stand steadily!"

"Since he is not attached to me, he is an enemy, and mercy to the enemy is cruelty to himself!"

"Because he is a master, this king cherishes talents, so he has the intention of subduing him, and because he is a master, if he doesn't return, he will kill him even more to prevent future troubles!"

After speaking, Liu Qi's eyes looked at the night outside.

"Wen Hui, go ahead, call Qin Wei and Bai Qi over, this is destined to be a night that will not be quiet."
