After the group returned to the camp, a young general immediately came over to greet the two of them: "I have met the prince and the princess."
Mu Yexiao hummed: "Where is General Dongchen?"
"The general is discussing matters in the tent. Your Majesty, please come!"
As he said that, the young general led the way and took Mu Yexiao to the tent, while Qian Jiujiu stopped and said, "My lord, you go first, I will go back to the tent first."
Mu Yexiao nodded to Qian Jiujiu: "Then go ahead."
Qian Jiujiu returned to his tent. After a while, a soldier came and looked at Qian Jiujiu: "I would like to send my regards to the princess. There is a letter from Kyoto."
With that said, Xiaobing gave Qingye the letter from Kyoto. Qingye took the letter and handed it to Qianjiujiu. Qianjiujiu opened it directly and found that it was sent from Mingyue Island.
The above recorded every detail of the growth of the two children during this period. Qian Jiujiu watched it very seriously, which was quite interesting. It took a while before I finished reading the letter sent from Mingyue Island.
Later, I discovered that in addition to the picture album sent by Mingyue Island, there was also a letter underneath. It was estimated that this was a letter sent from the Kyoto Palace.
I didn't know who wrote it, so I glanced at Qingye and said, "Qingye, you are injured, so you should go down and rest first, and let Lingdang come and take care of you."
Qingye immediately thanked her: "I thank the princess for your concern. I will go and ask Lingdang to come over now."
Qian Jiujiu immediately stopped him: "Let Lingdang go and see if the prince's affairs have been settled. If so, invite the prince back together."
After all, it was a letter from the palace, so it was better to let Mu Yexiao read it. Soon Lingdang invited Mu Yexiao back with him, and Mu Yexiao noticed it as soon as he stepped in.
Qian Jiujiu was in a good mood and walked to Qian Jiujiu with a smile: "Jiu'er seems to be in a good mood. Did something good happen to her?"
Listening to Mu Yexiao's words, Qian Jiujiu also smiled: "It's a good thing. I've sent the picture album of Mingyue Island to you. In addition, the reason why I invited you here."
"It's a letter sent from the palace. Read it yourself."
But Mu Yexiao didn't care: "I don't think you're funny. What's the difference between you and me after it's delivered to you? I'll look at the picture album first, and you can see what's in the letter."
Seeing that Mu Yexiao didn't care, Qian Jiujiu didn't think too much. He reached out and tore open the letter, only to see that the handwriting was very familiar.
It was also during the time when Qian Jiujiu was teaching Mu Yexing, what he saw the most was Mu Yexing's handwriting. He glanced at Mu Yexiao and said, "This is the emperor's personal letter."
Mu Yexiao also became interested: "Brother, did you tell me what happened?"
Qian Jiujiu did not answer, but continued to read. In fact, there was nothing important. He just talked about what happened in Kyoto during this period.
On another front, Xiaoman and Gu Xiangning joined forces, like a tiger with added power, and they had already taken three cities in Ningguo.
When Qian Jiujiu saw this, he couldn't help but curl his lips: "Mu Yexiao, do you think the emperor feels that there is something abnormal about the lack of good news coming back from us?"
Mu Yexiao smiled: "Brother Huang is not such a person, don't think about it. By the way, we should talk to the Emperor about the treasure. However, before that, we must first clarify the purpose of Qian Guo. what exactly is it?"
Qian Jiujiu nodded: "I have no objection to this. Now let's interrogate the prisoners we caught."
Mu Yexiao nodded, and the two of them set off. This time they planned to interrogate him in person. Coincidentally, the first person to be caught was the old acquaintance Qian Jiujiu remembered.
Naza, at this time, Naza's whole body was trembling: "What else do you want to know? I have told you everything I know."
Qian Jiujiu snorted coldly: "Have you told me everything you know? As Princess Fei's bodyguard, the person Princess Fei trusts the most, you can rebel in an instant, which makes people a little suspicious."
Naza's expression changed: "Although I am Princess Fei's bodyguard, life is more important than Princess Fei, so I have told you everything I know."
Qian Jiujiu didn't believe it and looked at Nazar: "I'm afraid not. Let me think about it. You said you came here for the treasure, right?"
Nazar nodded: "Yes, Princess Fei is here just for the treasure. As for the small number of people she brings, it's just because she is worried about attracting your attention."
Qian Jiujiu raised his eyebrows: "You have set a trap for me again! How long is the journey from the imperial capital of Qian Kingdom? You guys set off at least a month or two ago."
"And we have only occupied the Overnight City for more than half a month. Do you want to say that you have no predictions? It seems that you do know some news."
"And you people were just abandoned by Princess Fei and used to interfere with our sight. Are you sure you want to sacrifice your life for a princess who abandoned you?"
Mu Yexiao raised his eyebrows. He didn't know that Qian Jiujiu was so good at trapping people. If Qian Jiujiu was right, then he would be the one sent to complete such a task.
She will definitely be Princess Fei's 100% confidant. Such words will not work. And after Qian Jiujiu's words fell, Nazha stopped talking.
He just kept silent, changed his timid and fearful look, and stayed quietly. Qian Jiujiu raised his eyebrows: "It seems that I really underestimate you."
"You have been so kind to our military camp these past few days. Come on, please give this princess a severe punishment."
Two soldiers came in quickly outside the door and dragged Naza out. Then there was a bench outside. They tied Naza to the bench and started beating the military stick.
Qian Jiujiu looked at all this and couldn't help scratching his head. This was a military camp, and the so-called torture service was nothing more than beating military sticks. It seemed that it couldn't threaten people at all.
Looking at Na Zha, sure enough, all 10 army sticks were beaten, but there was no sound from the Zha Zha. Qian Jiujiu couldn't help but look at Mu Yexiao: "Your Majesty, what is the method of interrogation in your camp?"
Mu Yexiao looked at Qian Jiujiu: "Beat him until he confesses. Of course, if he doesn't confess, he will be beaten to death."
Qian Jiujiu suddenly looked up to the sky speechlessly: "I think you should look in the military camp to see if there is anyone with a perverted personality who can be used to extract a confession."
"If it really doesn't work, you can use the methods used in Kyoto's prison cells to force confessions. For example, you can make him a human pig or something."
Mu Yexiao raised his eyebrows: "Human pig, what is that?"
Qian Jiujiu coughed twice and began to explain about human pigs. He also waved his hand to make the man with the military stick stop. The scene was quiet, and then Qian Jiujiu started to speak.
"The so-called human pig! It means cutting off a person's hands and feet, and then keeping the remaining body parts in a jar to prevent him from dying."
"As long as the other person's mouth is open and they can still talk, do you understand? If you still don't understand, let's use this Nazarene as an experiment."
"By the way, how many of their living people are left? They can all be used as human pigs! After all, some people will die after cutting off their hands and feet."
"This Nazar seems to be very important, so just leave it to the end and use the others first."
The soldiers on the field looked at Qian Jiujiu as if they were looking at a devil. They are all very upright people! Suddenly I felt how could this princess be so evil.
Qian Jiujiu also saw these looks and couldn't help but twitch the corner of her mouth. It is estimated that from today on, no one will say that she is kind again. She is thinking about her reputation in Kyoto.
Qian Jiujiu was speechless for a moment. In fact, she was really kind, okay? Seeing the soldiers not moving, Mu Yexiao raised his eyebrows and said, "Don't do as the princess said."
A soldier immediately knelt down and looked at Mu Yexiao: "Go back to the prince, of the 19 people captured, there are still 10 left. The other nine have been forced to confess and beaten to death."
Mu Yexiao nodded: "Ten is enough! Let's catch one first. As for the others, just watch and let them see where their Princess Fei sent them."
"Do you think my camp is a very kind place?"
After listening to Mu Yexiao's words, Nazha immediately raised his head and looked at Mu Yexiao: "Actually, I have always respected your character, King Xiao, but I didn't expect that you are also a vicious villain."
Mu Yexiao just curled up the corner of his mouth: "You and I are from different camps, and it is appropriate for me to be cruel to you no matter how cruel I am. It seems that I have something right."
"You are really sent here intentionally by your Princess Fei, just to disturb our sight. Do you really think that I don't know?"
"What do you, Princess Fei, want from the former imperial mausoleum?"
Naza's pupils shrank, but he lowered his head again, no longer looking at Mu Yexiao and Qian Jiujiu, but was taken away with eight other people.
As for the remaining one, it has been brought in to make a pig. Soon the screams of their brothers came from inside: "Ah..."
After several screams, there was no sound. Soon, a soldier came out and knelt down when he saw Mu Yexiao and Qian Jiujiu also walking in.
First, greetings were given to the two of them: "I would like to send my greetings to the prince and princess. Return to the prince and princess. This prisoner did not survive and died. Is it time to make the next one now?"
Qian Jiujiu pouted: "Why are you so weak? Then let's start the next one."
Then after saying that, the soldiers began to move over to arrest people again. The remaining nine people, except Nazar, were trembling with fear because they had no idea what was going on inside.
If they were beaten, they would be beaten to death. They were not afraid. The worst case scenario would be death. But now, the unknown is the scariest thing.
They must not have been beaten to death, because their brothers would not have screamed if they had been beaten. Moreover, the soldiers who came out to report were covered in blood. Needless to say, they knew that the blood belonged to their brothers.
