He rubbed his eyes, quietly moved to the side, and looked at it with a look like a ghost.

This is really Lu Huaijin, how is the prince in the emperor's bedroom, and it seems that he is injured!

"Lord Wang? You...... What's wrong with you? For a while, Lord Hu couldn't care about why Lu Huaijin suddenly appeared in the emperor's bedroom, and he was anxious.

Lu Huaijin's face was very pale, coughing constantly, and it was not difficult to see that he was seriously injured.

Gu Qingyue sighed softly and slowly told the whole process of Lu Huaijin's injury.

Lord Hu originally wondered in his heart why His Majesty would lead him indoors to confess to a mediocre prisoner, instead of speaking out above the court.

Now it seems that this incident is not a trivial matter, and it is not an ordinary murder case.

When the three of them were discussing, Imperial Physician Xu, who was holding the decoction, happened to come in, and as soon as he turned into the door, he saw the emperor discussing important matters with Lord Hu.

He was about to withdraw silently, but Gu Qingyue had already noticed and stopped him, "Imperial Doctor Xu, bring the medicine in." ”

"Yes." Imperial Physician Xu responded in his mouth and put the bowl of black decoction on the golden silk nanmu table.

After a while, the whole room was filled with a choking smell of medicine.

Master Hu, who is not very used to it, couldn't help frowning slightly, it seems that the prince's condition is very serious.

"Master Hu, do you know how the poison from outside the territory flows into the Central Plains?" Gu Qingyue didn't wait for Master Hu to ask, and took the initiative to raise her eyebrows and ask.

Hearing this, Master Hu was slightly surprised in his heart, and said tentatively, "Could it be that the prince has been poisoned by extraterritoriality?"

Gu Qingyue nodded slightly, "I have already interrogated the thief today, but the man's mouth is too hard to ask." ”

When she said this, Gu Qingyue had hatred in her eyes.

"I heard that Lord Hu has a very good way of interrogating criminals, and the thieves have already ordered them to be sent to the dungeon of Dali Temple," Speaking of this, Gu Qingyue's eyes revealed a cold light, "Be sure to interrogate the mastermind behind it." ”

"Yes," Hu replied.

Knowing that this matter is not trivial, before leaving, he said to Gu Qingyue, "The emperor can rest assured, today's matter will be kept secret." ”

Gu Qingyue smiled lightly, "Master Hu is an understanding person, after this time, I will definitely reward you." ”

Dali Temple dungeon.

All kinds of cold torture instruments were placed on the iron shelves, glowing with cold light in the faint candlelight.

A man dressed in black was tied to a bronze pillar, and the marks of the whipping on his body were superimposed, some places had crusted into scabs, and some places were dripping with blood.

The dungeon was already stuffy, and the smell of blood was mixed with it, making people can't help but gag when they smell it.

The two jailers guarding the door frowned as they looked at the man who didn't have a good skin on his body.

"I don't know if this person offended that master and was beaten like this."

"Hmph, don't you know? This man was sent from the palace. ”

The jailer shook the whip in his hand in shock when he heard this, "That offended the nobles in the palace?" Now he's miserable! ”

When the two of them got together and whispered together, a strong man with thick eyebrows and a wide nose and a steel knife pinned to his waist appeared coldly behind them.

"What's the noise?" Dahan said and gave each of them a kick.

The two jailers bared their teeth and were about to curse, but when they turned around and saw the fierce face of the cell head, they immediately stopped.

The two looked at it again, and there was a middle-aged man wearing an official uniform and a dignified bearing standing next to the cell head, which should be an official.

When the cell leader turned his head to look at the official, the face that was still fierce just now suddenly disappeared.

I saw the cell boss smile and said, "Master Hu, inside is the person you are looking for, and the little one will take you in." ”

Unexpectedly, Master Hu glanced in the direction of the cell head and said, "No need, just find me two strong men." ”

The cell boss paused, and immediately understood what the noble man was asking for.

What Master Hu is looking for is naturally not an ordinary strong man, but will torture the prisoner by some means.

"The little one understands." With that, the cell boss beckoned the two jailers and hurried away.

Master Hu took the key and unscrewed the big iron lock hanging at the door, making a "clang" sound.

The man in black who was tied up heard the movement and struggled to lift his swollen eyelids.

Before he could react, a basin of cold water was poured over his head.

Cold water seeped into the wound, and the pain spread through the limbs.

Master Hu looked at the black-clothed man in front of him who was trembling with pain and his teeth chattered, and sneered, "I knew this was the case, why did I bother in the first place?"

The man in black came to his senses, looked at the unusually dressed man in front of him steadily, and said nothing.

When Lord Hu saw his appearance, he knew that the person in front of him was really as the emperor said, not an ordinary killer.

Ordinary people were beaten like this, and they would have already knelt on the ground and begged for mercy.

"It seems that the master behind you is really benevolent to you."

Master Hu picked up a pair of iron tongs with a crimson bottom from the blazing stove beside him, "Such torture will not make you succumb." ”

The man in black looked at the tongs in Master Hu's hand, and his pupils couldn't help but dilate.

"Then let me see how hard your bones really are!"

With that, the bottom of the red pincers was pressed straight to the neck of the man in black.

"Ahh

At this moment, the cell boss had already found a strong man, and he saw this picture as soon as he walked in.

Rao has been a cell boss for so many years, and he can't help but feel numb when he sees this picture.

"Master Hu," the cell boss pointed to the two muscular, fat and strong young men behind him, "the strong man I found for you." ”

As if he hadn't heard, Master Hu threw the tongs in his hand into the furnace and left with a gloomy face.

In the main hall, Lord Hu knelt on the cold white marble floor and glanced at Qingyue cautiously.

The latter slowly played with the Vajra Bodhi in his hand, looking uneasy.

"Your Majesty, Wechen has exhausted the torture," Lord Hu cried with a sad face, "but that person just won't recruit ......"

Speaking of this, Gu Qingyue suddenly stood up.

Seeing this, Lord Hu quickly shut up, leaned over and bent lower.

Gu Qingyue slowly walked down the white jade steps.

Every step she took, Master Hu's heart tightened.

"Master Hu doesn't need to be so alarmed," Gu Qingyue glanced at Lord Hu who was kneeling on the ground, "I won't punish you for this." ”

Hearing this, Master Hu's mood relaxed slightly.

"However," Gu Qingyue's eyes narrowed slightly, "Next, I will rely on Lord Hu to help persuade Taifu Yang to help." ”

Master Hu understands that His Majesty is giving himself a chance to make amends.

Gu Qingyue slowly moved in front of him, "If Master Hu can't handle this matter, don't blame me for being ruthless." ”

After speaking, Gu Qingyue leaned over and looked at Master Hu at eye level, with an extremely cold smile on her face.
