Kneeling on the ground with disheveled hair, the palace maid was not afraid when she heard Li Chen's words. Instead, she raised her head and looked at Li Chen with an extremely resentful and ferocious face. She screamed hysterically: "Prince Dog, you will not die well! You can't even think about it from me.
If you get any information from your mouth, I will not let you get what you want even if I die!"
Hearing this, Zhao Rui next to Li Chen became furious.
She stood up, walked forward quickly, and slapped the palace maid on the face.
With a snap, this slap was clear and loud.
It was obvious that Zhao Rui had used a lot of force. The palace maid screamed and was knocked to the ground.
With a "Wow" sound, the palace maid opened her mouth and spat out a mouthful of rich blood.
The scarlet blood was mixed with white broken teeth.
"Who do you think you are? You dare to insult the prince?" Zhao Rui said coldly.
After saying that, Zhao Rui turned to Li Chen and said, "Your Highness, why don't you hand this maid over to me? I'll have a way to interrogate her."
Li Chen raised his eyebrows slightly, he had planned to interrogate him personally.
Although this palace maid seems to be very tough-tongued, she has more methods, which is nothing more than spending some effort and time.
But now that Zhao Rui has volunteered, Li Chen might as well let her give it a try.
So, Li Chen said: "I am going to take a bath, and I will leave this place to you. Don't kill her yet."
Li Chen's subtext was that it didn't matter even if he couldn't ask, but the palace maid still had to keep her alive.
Seeing that Li Chen had agreed, Zhao Rui was overjoyed and said a blessing and said: "When His Highness the Crown Prince comes back later, I will definitely give His Highness some good news."
Li Chen stood up and chuckled: "It doesn't matter whether the trial is successful or not. Since you are willing to do something for me, I will naturally be happy."
After saying this, Li Chen went back to bathe and change clothes while being served by a group of palace maids.
Although he was not injured, the clothes had a hole in his chest, which was always unsightly.
After Li Chen left, Zhao Rui came to the palace maid.
Zhao Rui was condescending, looked at the palace maid with cold eyes, and said coldly: "Since you dare to assassinate His Highness the Crown Prince, you must have already thought about the consequences, so there is no point in threatening you with death, right?
The palace maid raised her head, her eyes were hidden behind her messy hair, her gaze was as vicious as a poisonous snake, and she sneered: "You are smart."
"If you can, kill me now and see if I frown?"
"Kill you? Of course I won't kill you."
"His Highness said he would keep you alive."
Zhao Rui's tone was cold and she said, "And if I just kill you like this, wouldn't it be too easy on you?"
"Did you think I would ask you who is the mastermind behind this? No, you are wrong. I will not ask you at all."
After saying that, Zhao Rui told others: "Go and get some silver needles for sewing clothes. The longer the better."
"yes."
A eunuch came down and immediately turned around to look for the silver needle.
Soon the eunuch took the silver needle Zhao Rui wanted and presented it to Zhao Rui.
The palace maid didn't know what Zhao Rui wanted to do, so she just looked at her with a sneer, looking confident.
"Here comes someone."
Zhao Rui picked up a silver needle and said in a very scornful tone: "Prick the silver needle into her fingernails, first pick out her ten fingers, and then pick out her ten toes."
Zhao Rui's expression was casual and indifferent, as if he was just talking about an ordinary thing.
