"What do you think?" Long Tianhao looked at the woman in front of him. She was not stupid, and could even be said to be very smart.
However, if she wanted to be his help, she still needed to gain experience.
"Since I have no choice, I will follow your arrangement." In this world, if you want to get something, you have to pay the price.
There were too many people who were related to her.
Whether it was Baizhi or Lin Zhongyu, they all needed her protection. Obviously, the man in front of her was her only chance.
"Just take care of yourself. By the way, I heard that you are very good at interrogating prisoners. I have arrested the governor. I hope you can dig out something useful. "
Long Tianhao turned around and strode out of Lin Mengya's room.
"The governor?" It seemed that she really needed to have a good talk with him!
Prince Yu's Mansion suffered a great loss in the fire. However, it was well hidden. No one knew that the dignified Princess Yu was almost burned to death in the fire.
Under the care of Baizhi and Lin Zhongyu, the elixirs flowed like water, leaving no scar on Lin Mengya.
"Miss, the Prince is really good to you!" Baizhi held a small jade bottle and carefully applied medicine for Lin Mengya with a smile.
"You were bought over by a few bottles of Hibiscus Dew Powder. You are really easy to be bought over." Lin Mengya was speechless and lying on the bed. Those elixirs were sent to her bed as if they were free.
But these were the money she earned by risking her life.
In the battle between the princes, a little carelessness could lead to eternal damnation. Even she didn't have a perfect solution.
"That's not what I'm talking about. Miss, do you remember that it was Prince Yu who carried you out of the fire that day?" Lin Mengya's eyes sparkled. It seemed that this girl worshipped Long Tianhao as a hero.
Lin Mengya looked down and sighed. She had to admit that she was ashamed of Long Tianhao's means of winning people's hearts.
"Princess, I am ordered by the Prince to invite Her Highness for a discussion." Steward Deng's voice came from outside the door.
"Okay, please wait for a moment, Prince. I will be there soon."
With Baizhi's help, Lin Mengya freshened up. Because of the fire, her waist-length hair was missing, but it hung on her shoulders, making her look even more lively and beautiful.
However, her face was still a little pale. From afar, she looked like a sickly beauty.
"Steward Deng, I am relieved to see that you are safe and sound." Steward Deng was waiting outside the door with a serious face. When he saw Lin Mengya, he forced a smile.
"Thanks to Princess's blessings, this subordinate managed to keep his life. But Wangfei, don't worry. Wangye has already ordered people to send the settlement allowance to the three brothers. Everything has been settled. "
Lin Mengya smiled, but she had made up her mind.
She was a person who would take revenge and repay kindness with kindness. She would never forget the kindness of these three guards.
The two of them walked forward, but they were not going to the prince's study, nor were they going to the main hall.
Instead, they made several turns and arrived at the back of the rockery in the small garden of the prince's mansion.
Lin Mengya frowned slightly. Could it be …
Sure enough, Steward Deng stretched out his hand and slightly stirred a small hole in the rockery. Then, there came a terrible sound of a mechanism.
"Princess, please follow me. There is a mechanism in here."
No wonder he was so careful. It turned out that this was the secret prison of the prince's mansion.
Lin Mengya nodded and followed Steward Deng cautiously.
The secret prison was full of twists and turns. The winding path could only allow two people to pass side by side.
There were lamps made of Bright Moon Stones placed all around them, giving off a frightening light. Suddenly, the tip of his nose caught a whiff of water vapor. This prison was actually built in a small lake in the garden.
What a grand gesture! It seemed that she had underestimated Prince Yu's Mansion. How many secrets were hidden in such a big mansion?
"Princess, please." At the end of the path, there was a solid stone door. Steward Deng reached out and touched the wall. Finally, the stone door rose quietly.
Stepping into the stone door, they were greeted with a damp and rancid smell.
However, there was plenty of air, and they didn't feel stuffy at all.
Beside the aisle, there were all tightly closed stone doors. There was only a very small iron window on the top of the stone door.
"Here, the people who tried to harm the prince are imprisoned. Including the assassin who dared to assassinate the prince. "Steward Deng saw Lin Mengya's puzzled look and explained patiently.
"Oh, I see." Lin Mengya nodded. This secret prison was very safe. It was extremely difficult to find it outside.
He let her down because he regarded her as one of his own. But at the same time, it meant that the more she knew, the more miserable she would die.
He was dragging her down!
Soon, they walked to a stone door. They pushed the door open and entered. Long Tianhao's tall figure was quietly standing in the dark.
"Prince, Princess is here." Steward Deng saluted and quietly waited at the door. Lin Mengya felt Long Tianhao's eyes looking at her. She just smiled slightly.
"Prince, did you ask me to come here to dig out any useful information from the governor?"
In the room, the governor, who was still wearing his underclothes, was tied to a stake.
There was a piece of cloth in his mouth. It seemed that he had lived quite well these days.
But now, his eyes were wide open. Lin Mengya didn't need him to say it. She also knew that he should be threatening her to make the last struggle.
"Up to you. I only want to hear useful information." Steward Deng said that Lin Mengya's interrogation methods were unique.
She used both torture and scheming. It just so happened that the governor was stubborn. He wanted to see if she had any ideas.
"Yes."
Lin Mengya stood in front of the governor. She was slightly moved. There must be a way.
She smiled and leaned over to the governor's ear and whispered softly.
Just two words, but the governor's face changed slightly. A pair of eyes looked at Lin Mengya as if he had seen a ghost.
"Come on, dip the whip in salt water and loosen the governor's skin."
The soft and melodious voice was like that of a devil.
The whip was extremely domineering, with barbs. A whip could cut off a piece of flesh and blood.
With the addition of salt water, the sourness increased exponentially.
"Your Highness, how many whips do you want?" The executioner asked in a low voice.
But Lin Mengya looked at the governor with evil intentions. It seemed that he was going to resist.
It was not that simple.
"You can't stop until I say so. Steward Deng, prepare some ginseng soup and various kinds of good medicine for wounds. Oh yes, prepare ten corks for me, the kind that can be stuffed into his mouth."
Everyone could not help but suck in a breath of cold air.
It was not torture. It was simply torturing the prisoner for fun.
Glancing at the governor, who was still resisting, everyone felt that what was going to happen next would be very exciting.
It was not terrible for a person to be tortured. What was terrible was that this kind of pain had no end.
The most terrible thing was that the torture without hope was that it would make people collapse.
If it was a person with weak willpower, he would be stupid or crazy in the end.
"What if you can confess? I'll let you rest for a day, and then I'll beat you. If you don't confess, I'll torture you every day and night. But don't worry, I'm not like them. The torture I'll use on you is something that they have never heard of. "
Lin Mengya opened her bright eyes and looked at the governor with a touch of joy.
When she was in college, she once read a book called The Art of Punishment.
The physical pain was only a part of the punishment. The ultimate goal of punishment was to destroy people's spirit and will.
"Oh … Oh …" The governor never dreamed that the dignified Princess Yu turned out to be a pervert who liked to torture people for fun.
"All right. Start the punishment." Without any explanation, the guards who were carrying out the execution raised the whips in their hands and lashed on the governor's body with a "Pah" sound.
Suddenly, the howl, which was comparable to that of a pig being slaughtered, resounded through the dungeon.
Lin Mengya asked someone to bring a small stool, took some melon seeds, and watched the show leisurely.
"That one, on the left, go and get a new whip. The one on the right, dip it in salt water. "While eating melon seeds, he instructed the executioner.
If the governor's flesh and blood were ignored, it would be like watching a vaudeville.
"Your Highness, if it goes on like this, will he …" Steward Deng looked at the governor whose howl began to weaken. He was afraid that if it went on like this, the governor would die before he confessed.
"No." Long Tianhao stood quietly in the dark and watched. He understood that the reason why Lin Mengya did this was to let the governor think that she didn't care about the so-called confession at all.
However, in this boundless pain, only a confession could exchange for a moment of peace.
She believed that it wouldn't be long before that man couldn't take it anymore.
"Take out the thing in his mouth and ask him if he has anything to say." Lin Mengya asked someone to take out the rags in the governor's mouth, but before he spoke, Lin Mengya immediately shouted.
"There is nothing to say. Block it and continue to beat him." The governor widened his eyes and held his breath. What kind of trick was this? Shouldn't he be shouting and then Lin Mengya would be exasperated?
At this time, the governor's heart was broken.
But Lin Mengya was far from being as relaxed as she looked.
According to Steward Deng, this person should be a member of the mysterious organization that day, and his martial arts were not bad.
But after hiding for so many years, he could become the governor of the capital city, so he should be doing well in the officialdom.
After struggling in the officialdom for so long, he was more or less contaminated with some bureaucratic ways. Compared with those people in Jianghu who would stubbornly resist to the end, people like him were easier to pry open.
