Chapter 421: Be cruel to yourself

The prison of the Criminal Department was dark and damp, filled with the smell of blood and decay.

The queen was okay, but when she saw the emperor frowning, she obviously couldn't bear it. Some people sit in front of the bright mirror in the high hall for a long time and think that the world is bright and bright, forgetting that there are places where the light cannot be found, or they are selective.

Forgot.

The prison guard led the way to the torture chamber. There was a pot of fire in the middle with a hot iron burning on it. The walls next to it were covered with torture instruments, some of which were still dripping with blood.

After entering, they saw a bloody man tied to a wooden frame, his head hung down, silently.

The queen's heart tightened, "Is he still alive?"

Perhaps he did not expect that the Emperor and Queen would come here. The guards in the execution room knelt down one after another, and no one dared to answer.

The emperor shouted angrily: "The queen is asking, are all of them deaf?"

The leader of the prison guard trembled and said shivering: "Still... still alive."

The queen snorted coldly: "I'm afraid I only have one breath left. Put me down first and go find the doctor quickly!"

"The general ordered his subordinates to wait..."

"Presumptuous!" The emperor's eyes widened, "He Han Lin is a general and holds the military power in Xizhou. When did he have the right to take charge of your criminal department!"

The prison guard realized that he had said the wrong thing and quickly lowered his head, "You deserve to die for your humble position!"

"Hurry up and put this person down!" the emperor said angrily.

At that moment, the prison guards hurriedly lowered Yan Mu from the wooden frame and placed him on the grass. Seeing that he was motionless, the leader stretched out his trembling hand to reach over.

"The breath is very weak..."

The queen quickly took out a small porcelain bottle from her arms, stuffed a ginseng pill into Yan Mu's mouth, and ordered the people next to her to call the doctor quickly.

At this time, the Minister of Justice and the Minister of Justice came over. After being scolded by the emperor, they knelt down outside the execution room in fear.

After taking a ginseng pill and waiting for a while, Yan Mu slowly opened his eyes.

The emperor was anxious and hurriedly stepped forward. He saw Yan Mu covered in blood again. He covered his lips and nose with his hands, frowned and asked, "Do you know how to refine the fire unicorn?"

"Your Majesty... Your Majesty..." Yan Mu was injured too much and was extremely weak. Although his eyes were open, they were dim and dull, "I... I didn't kill... Qin Zhenzhen..."

"I ask you if you know how to refine the Fire Qilin?"

"I...was wronged..."

The emperor took a deep breath and said, "I will send another King of England to supervise this case, and I will not let them torture to extract confessions again."

Yan Mu said in a daze, unable to catch his breath: "They didn't torture me for a murder case...but...they forced me to ask me how to refine the fire unicorn..."

When the emperor heard this, he couldn't help but widen his eyes, "You really know, then can you explain it?"

Yan Mu nodded, "Fire Qilin...the refining method is complicated...I found a book from Zhenbei Military Camp...General Han...has taken it away..."

The Queen was worried at first, but after hearing what Yan Mu said, she finally let it go. Yan Mu and Liu Yunxiang, the couple, have a perfect understanding of each other, and they are both cunning and cunning.

When the emperor heard this, his face changed drastically, and he even looked a little panicked.

My own minister obtained extremely lethal gunpowder but kept it from him, the emperor. What was this minister going to do?

This minister started refining the Fire Qilin three years ago, which means that he had long wanted to usurp the throne. Now that he has control of such powerful gunpowder, his chances of winning are greatly increased. Will he immediately rebel?

The more the emperor thought about it, the uglier his face became, and the more he thought about it, the more afraid he became, and chills began to creep down his spine.

"Queen, take Yan Mu away from the Criminal Department and imprison him in Dali Temple. You will go to Dali Temple to investigate the murder of Qin Zhenzhen."

"yes."

"besides……"

"My concubine understands that the Emperor is at ease."

The emperor looked at the queen and saw her nodding towards him. He felt much more at ease, and then strode out.

"Han Lin is coming back to the palace with me. I have something to ask you."

When the queen heard the emperor shouting when he went out, she knew that the emperor had believed Yan Mu's words.

Also, Yan Mu was so seriously injured that he was almost invisible. How could the emperor suspect that this was his plan? Who would be so cruel to torture himself like this, and his life would be lost if he failed to do so.

But Yan Mu is so cruel, he is cruel to others and he is equally cruel to himself.

Such people are the most terrifying!

The queen knelt down and saw Yan Mu looking at her. She shook her head and smiled: "When you return to Da Rong, if you ascend the throne as emperor, you must remember my kindness in saving you today. Don't invade or hurt my Beijin."

common people.”

Yan Mu was stunned for a moment, then smiled bitterly: "I just want revenge, I don't have that ambition."

"That's a pity."

If such a person becomes an emperor, he can be a militaristic and foolish king, or he can be a wise king.

"Yunxiang asked you for help, right?" Yan Mu asked.

The Queen raised her eyebrows: "Can you two communicate through the air? Otherwise, how could you have such a tacit understanding?"

He expected that Liu Yunxiang would ask her for help, and Liu Yunxiang also expected that Yan Mu would push the matter of Huo Qilin to Han Lin in front of the emperor. On the surface, he was framed and suffered miserably, but in fact

But he took the opportunity to drag Han Lin into the water.

Yan Muxiao: "We have the same mind."

The queen nodded, "My goddaughter truly loves you wholeheartedly. Don't let her down. Otherwise, even if you return to Da Rong, I will carry a knife and kill you."

In the palace, Han Lin knelt in the study room. Although he expected something to happen, he was still surprised when he heard that the emperor said that Yan Mu had told him the method of refining the fire unicorn.

At this time, he was really speechless, which showed that Yan Mu was talking and that he had not obtained the method to refine the fire unicorn at all. However, the suspicion and anger on the emperor's face could not be concealed, which told him that he could not prove his innocence.

He suddenly felt as if he had fallen into a pit, and this pit was obviously dug for him by Yan Mu.

"Your Majesty, I made great contributions to you in the Southern and Northern War, and I have been loyally guarding the border these years. You can't trust Yan Mu, a man of great honor, but distrust me, right?" Han Lin said helplessly.

The emperor frowned, "The fact that Xie Shengmao developed the Fire Kirin really has nothing to do with you?"

Han Lin paused for a moment and said, "I really don't know!"

"I'll ask you again, do you really not know?"

"I really don't know!"

The emperor and his ministers fell silent again. The emperor was thinking about Han Lin's words, and Han Lin was also thinking of ways to defend himself.

Outside the palace, Liu Yunxiang took advantage of the darkness and quietly came to Prince Shun's mansion.

A quarter of an hour later, in the main courtyard of Prince Shun's Mansion, Princess Shun stood at the door, watching her walk in with a sad look on her face.

"You said you have a way to save my father Ning?" Princess Shunqin asked anxiously.

When she first heard about Princess Changning's prison robbery, Princess Shunqin fainted from shock and anger. When she recovered, she went around asking for help, but after running around for a day, she received no response.

This matter was so big that no one was willing to go to the Prince's Palace for her or say a word for her daughter. But in the final analysis, her daughter had gone too far.

He went to jail to save a man!

Liu Yunxiang looked at Princess Shunqin calmly: "Princess, don't you ask me who I am?"

"Oh, yes, you are?" Princess Shunqin was so confused that she didn't even think of asking who the person was.
