Uncle Detective Di Renjie, I build a crime-solving team

Chapter 427: Ruthless Huang Shengyan

Walking between multiple forces is like walking a tightrope on a cliff.

If you are not careful, you risk falling into the abyss.

If you succeed in getting through it, you will be rewarded greatly.

In order to have a little happiness in the troubled times ahead, Yu Zhou resolutely walked onto this tightrope.

At that moment, he told Prince Helu everything that had happened when Prince Mochu came.

Prince Helu twirled his beard and was silent for a long time. Suddenly he said:

"That is to say, the governor of the Great Zhou, Li, has discovered the strangeness of Mochu."

"He went to find Mochu, not because the relationship between Mochu and you was discovered, but because of Mochu's own problem?"

"Tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, that Mochu's plan has ended completely before it even began. How miserable."

"But it's good, this prince now has one less competitor on his road ahead."

"Mr. Yu did a great job today and was very honest to me. I like people like you."

"This prince is not a lobbyist with words, I still like to make friends like you with gifts."

"Treasures will be delivered to you tonight."

Prince Helu is such a generous man, he has no shortage of money.

But not everyone in this world has everything.

Just like Yu Zhou in front of us, this person lacks gold, silver and jewelry.

"Thank you, Your Highness. I appreciate your kindness."

Yu Zhou happily bowed and accepted the gift from Prince Helu.

Now is not the time to act hypocritically. He cannot let Prince Helu discover his weirdness.

"Very good. I like people like you, not hypocritical or pretentious."

Prince Helu looked at Yuzhou with great admiration and liked this man from Central Plains even more.

On the other side, Ma Rong followed Prince Mochu back to his residence and found a small shop nearby to stay.

So that he could keep an eye on Prince Mochu at all times.

……

In the territory of the Great Zhou, the sacred capital is Luoyang.

Xiao Qingfang strolled in the mist and rain. The man following behind her with an umbrella was her confidant and also a member of the Snake Spirit.

The middle-aged man was holding an umbrella, with half of his body exposed to the rain, but he didn't care.

There was no conversation along the way. When they reached a street corner, the man suddenly said:

"Things in the north are destined to take time, so you'd better make plans early."

"Yu Zhou, Xiao Feng, Qiu Jing, and Su Honghui are nominally loyal to you, but you still have to be more careful."

"After all, Li Cunxi has already led everyone north. He is a time bomb. I don't think the sword spirits, magic spirits, moving spirits and transformation spirits can keep an eye on him."

"Moreover, the sword spirit has changed its temperament since the Youzhou case."

Xiao Qingfang stopped, glanced at the middle-aged man silently, and asked in a low voice:

"So, you want to tell me that there are great hidden dangers when these people gather together?"

The middle-aged man nodded without comment.

That's what he thinks.

Normally speaking, five of the six snake heads took action to prevent Li Cunxi from disrupting their plans.

This should be foolproof.

But middle-aged men just feel like there’s something wrong.

He subconsciously felt that these snake heads were entangled with each other and could easily cause trouble.

Besides...

There is another top master beside Li Cunxi, Li Yuanfang.

"You should send someone north to get some information."

"If something unexpected does happen, we can make arrangements in advance."

The middle-aged man's advice made sense. Xiao Qingfang responded silently, and the two of them went to the Inner Guard Palace.

When he returned to the Inner Guard Palace, Fenghuang was approaching and grabbing a minister in court robes, punching him from time to time.

"Phoenix, who is this?"

"Grand Lord, this thief is the Minister of Rites that Your Majesty wants to arrest. I led people to arrest him, but he refused to be arrested in the street and even drew his sword against me."

"Let's hand this thief over to Huang Shengyan. I heard that Huang Shengyan has recently become addicted to whipping and cold water. Let him go and interrogate him."

"Understood, Grand Lord."

The interrogation room set up by Huang Shengyan for the prisoners was right next to it. Huang Shengyan, who seemed honest, just sat down and drank two sips of water.

The last criminal who was nearly beaten to death was dragged away, and there is a high probability that he is not far from death.

"Huang Ge Ling, this is the Minister of Rites whom His Majesty ordered me to capture."

Fenghuang pushed the official in and ordered his men to put the Minister of Rites on the tiger bench.

Huang Shengyan drank two sips of water and rested enough, then he stood up, stretched his arms twice, and then said:

"Phoenix, take a rest."

"I will treat him well today!"

The Minister of Rites had always known Huang Shengyan's reputation and his methods.

At this moment, seeing Huang Shengyan putting the blood-stained whip into a large bucket and soaking it up and down, my scalp suddenly felt numb.

From his perspective, the water in the barrel had been contaminated by blood, and it looked blood red at first glance.

"Huang Ge Ling, what are you doing? We can discuss this matter."

"Otherwise, you should ask me first. I will confess everything."

The Minister of Rites was so frightened that he trembled and begged for mercy.

Faced with such a spineless official, Huang Shengyan simply showed a cruel smile.

"I'm holding a whip and I'm going to beat you!"

"Beat you to death, you bastard!"

Huang Shengyan's slightly melodious words left the Minister of Rites completely confused and bewildered.

He pretended that he had not heard clearly, and said pitifully:

"Huang Ge Ling, Huang Ge Ling, I didn't hear what you just said clearly. Please say it again, Huang Ge Ling."

Huang Shengyan took out the whip stained with salt water and blood from the barrel.

A faint smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.

"The whip is cold water, I will beat you without mercy!"

Huang Shengyan immediately swung the whip and beat the Minister of Rites severely.

Xiao Qingfang and the middle-aged man, who had not walked far, stopped at the same time.

All one could hear in the interrogation room was Huang Shengyan whipping someone hard with a whip. The sound of the whip was followed by screams.

Huang Shengyan, who was designated as the next leader of the Internal Guard Bureau, said Li Cunxi's classic saying while beating him.

"Dip the whip in salt water and disinfect it while you're beating!"

"Ah ah ah ah ah ah!"

"Do you want to recruit?"

“Ahhhhhhhhhhhh, I confess! I confess!”

"You're going to recruit or not! You're going to recruit or not!"

“Ahhhhhhh, Leader Huang, I was wrong. I really am willing to confess!”

"You recruit or not, you recruit or not, you recruit or not!"

“Ahhhhhhh, I told you I’m going to confess!”

"Snap, snap, snap, snap, snap!"

"Aaaaaaaaaaa!"

"Recruit or not, recruit or not!"

“I admit it, I admit it, please stop whipping me, it’s hurting me so much, ahhhhhhhhh!”

The same questions and answers as usual were heard in the interrogation room. Xiao Qingfang, who was used to it, just shook her head.
