"I didn't expect that the place the Queen wanted to come to would be the Heavenly Prison——"
He Yilan raised her eyes and glanced at the Heavenly Prison plaque above her head, then lowered her eyes and looked at the kneeling chamberlain and said.
Mu Tianxue curled up the corners of her lips, and without taking He Yilan's words, she directly approached the Tianlao and went down to the ninth floor of the Tianlao.
"Subordinate, please see Master Snow——"
When Lan Yi and Lu Yi saw Mu Tianxue and He Yilan coming to the ninth floor of the Tianlao, they hurriedly stepped forward to greet them, knelt down on one knee and said respectfully.
Mu Tianxue glanced at the two of them coldly, and said in a warm voice: "Get up, everyone, there will be something to gain!!!"
Lan Yi and Lu Yi stood up and said respectfully: "My subordinates are incompetent. The assassin was very tight-lipped. He wanted to bite his tongue several times and fainted again under the torture!"
Mu Tianxue's eyes slightly raised and she raised her hands. Lan Yi and Lu Yi immediately stepped aside. She glanced at He Yilan and saw He Yilan looking at the entire cell, her face as calm as water, and there was a rosy flower hanging on the corners of her lips.
You Ruowu smiled before walking towards the cell.
He Yilan squinted her eyes and looked around, and finally her eyes fell on the man in black who was tied up in the cell. He saw that the man in black was thrashing all over his body, his head lowered and dying, and his two arms were cut off.
Most of the flesh on the body had been removed, and there were layers of dark blood on the ground, with a layer of wet blood covering it.
She frowned unconsciously. Could the assassin be one of his people? She felt a little uneasy and followed Mu Tianxue into the cell!!
Lan Yi lifted two chairs in front of Mu Tianxue and He Yilan, and Lu Yi poured a basin of salt water from the head of the man in black onto his body.
"Well--"
Perhaps after the severe pain of cutting the flesh, the pain of pouring salt water was too much for the man in black, and it had no effect. He could only hear him groan in pain and twitch his body.
, still in a coma.
"What kind of assassin needs to be tortured with such cruel torture?"
He Yilan sat on the chair and looked at the man in black with inquiring eyes. Wherever there were muscles on the man in black, he could see white bones, red flesh, and even...
It's cruel and terrible.
"This assassin is a man. No matter how he is tortured, his mouth is very tight." Mu Tianxue has been closely observing He Yilan's reaction and expression: "I wonder if the princess has any special skills that can make this assassin speak.
!”
He Yilan looked at Mu Tianxue and narrowed her eyes a little, and said with dissatisfaction: "The Queen really thinks highly of me, what trick can I use to make this assassin speak!"
Mu Tianxue curled her lips, stood up and walked to the unconscious man in black, leaned into the man's ear, and said in a low voice: "Your princess has come to collect the body for you, why don't you see him!!?
"
"Well--"
The man in black, who was originally unconscious, opened his eyes in an instant, raised his eyes in horror to look at Mu Tianxue beside him, and then at He Yilan who was sitting on the chair, his horrified eyes instantly dimmed.
At the same time, He Yilan's uneasy heart calmed down instantly after seeing the face of the man in black. She looked at Mu Tianxue and said in an unhappy tone: "The Queen still has a way, the salt water can't wake up the assassin.
As soon as the Queen passed by, the assassin woke up!"
Mu Tianxue curled her lips and sneered, taking in all the expressions and reactions that flashed through the eyes of He Yilan and the man in black.
Hearing He Yilan's displeased but reassuring words, she glanced at the man in black and said, "Your bones are indeed strong enough. I appreciate a loyal person like you!"
The man in black lowered his head feebly, closed his eyes, and groaned in pain, "Kill me, no matter what tricks you use, you can't get even a shred of information from me!"
"I have always admired men with backbone. It would be a pity if you died like this." Mu Tianxue glanced coldly at the man in black, walked to the chair and sat down, looked at Lan Yi and said coldly: "Lan
Yi, prepare pen, ink, paper and inkstone——"
"Yes, Master Xue." Lan Yi responded and immediately left the cell. A few minutes later, he presented the four treasures of the study and rice paper.
Seeing Mu Tianxue spreading rice paper and Lan Yi studying ink on the side, as if preparing to write, He Yilan was a little confused: "What does the Queen want?"
Mu Tianxue picked up the pen and dipped it in some ink, raised her eyes and glanced at He Yilan, and said: "I can't draw with my hands. I wonder if the princess would like to do it for me?"
"Painting?" He Yilan frowned, looked at the tied man in black and said, "Does the Queen want to draw the assassin's appearance?"
Mu Tianxue smiled lightly, "Since this assassin is so tough, I have no choice but to think of this stupid way to draw the assassin's appearance and post it in Kyoto!"
He Yilan's frown deepened, and her eyes were filled with confusion. "The assassin has been arrested, so what's the use of drawing and posting his appearance? If he could tell the appearance and name of his accomplice, he could still draw it."
Post it and send officers and soldiers to arrest it!!"
Mu Tianxue nodded, pretending to sigh helplessly, "What the princess said makes sense, but it's a pity that the assassin didn't say anything, so I can only use this stupid method to see if I can lure out his accomplices.
Princess, please do it for me!"
He Yilan sneered at Mu Tianxue's clumsy method, but did not refuse. He took the brush from Mu Tianxue's hand, asked Lu Yi to raise the head of the man in black, and began to draw.
In less than a moment, He Yilan had drawn the face of the man in black on rice paper. It must be said that He Yilan's painting skills were quite good. Not only was he fast, but the character he drew was also almost the same as himself.
"Thank you so much Princess Yilan!" Mu Tianxue took the finished painting and thanked He Yilan, then handed the painting into Lan Yi's hands and ordered: "Put him down and send someone to watch him.
Let him bite his tongue and commit suicide! For such a man with such a strong character, if he bites his tongue and commits suicide, it will destroy his whole character!"
"Yes, Master Snow!!"
Lan Yi put away the portrait, walked outside the cell door and called the chamberlain into the cell. He lowered the man in black from the iron pillar and carried him into a closed cell.
When he came out of the cell, the sun was shining brightly and it was already close to noon. He Yilan did not stay in the palace for long, and then left the palace after saying goodbye to Mu Tianxue.
"Master Snow, this portrait——"
After seeing He Yilan leave, Lan Yi took the portrait and asked Mu Tianxue for instructions.
Mu Tianxue narrowed her eyes and stared at He Yilan's leaving figure, and said: "Lu Yi, go and spy on Princess Yilan. There are secret guards protecting her in secret. Remember, don't be fooled by her and her secrets."
Wei found out!"
"Yes, Lu Yi obeys your order." Lu Yi said respectfully and then turned around and disappeared from the sight of Mu Tianxue and Lan Yi!!
After Lu Yi left, Mu Tianxue looked at the portrait handed over by Lan Yi and ordered: "Teach the portrait to Yumian and ask him to make an exact face as quickly as possible according to the face in the portrait.
