On the evening of summer, it was darker later, and the setting sun shone on people's faces, and it was no longer hot. Some people were getting angry in the garden of Baifu.

"Godfather is so weird recently... he is not in a hurry to find his mother. Does he don't miss her?"

Wow

The branches waved and whipped on the flowers in the hands of the little man. The falling petals were like the withering of winter, leaving only the stamens standing alone on the branches.

Yu Linglong seemed much more eccentric when she was in Qingluan Valley. Now, following Bai Ning, there are eunuchs of all sizes, and gradually become a villain. What's more, she has two lives in her hands at such a young age, and her family suddenly changed and became much more mature than before.

But after all, he was just a child. Since leaving here with Xifu, Linglong kept wandering around the mansion every day, as if looking for something.

Perhaps it was a bit bored to hit those flowers. She sat down on the steps under the corridor, looking at the various petals falling all over the ground, tears suddenly fell.

"Mom... where are you hiding... Linglong really hopes that you are just a collector... Linglong searches everywhere but can't find her..." As she cried, she reached out to wipe it with her cuffs, but her nose was sore, and she couldn't stop crying: "Dad ignores Linglong... No one at home likes Linglong... Mom, Linglong misses you so much."

Now she is twelve or thirteen years old. If she had grown up for a few years, some troubles would have become a little naive, but the longing in her heart at this moment was real.

The red embroidered shoes were covered with white socks and shrank in. Xiao Linglong held her knees and pressed them on them. The crying pear blossoms were raining, and the water stains wet the brocade and silk penetrated into the outside.

"Linglong really wants to grow up quickly... When she grows up, she goes out to find her mother, and stay with her mother... she won't come back."

Just as she was saying something sadly, a figure rushed over at the end of the corridor. When she heard the footsteps, Xiao Linglong quickly wiped away the tears and sat there as if nothing had happened... She picked up a petal and looked blankly, probably hoping that no one would see her now.

However, the sound of footsteps came behind us.

Xiao Chenzi looked down at the petals on the ground, guessing that the little adult must be in a bad mood, so he bowed and walked over and muttered a few words beside Linglong.

"Is the news true?" The petals slid from her small hand, and the separated feet gradually gathered.

The little eunuch bowed his head and nodded affirmatively, "Yes, Miss, I just got the news from the East Factory. They found the Xuantian Hunyuan Sword lost by the governor, and Zheng Mojun also confirmed that the sword was indeed Bao Daoyi's sword."

"Come with me." The folded long skirt stood up and hung down with the figure. Xiao Linglong shook her two ponytails and turned around and passed the eunuch.

Hongsha brushed over Xiao Chenzi's face, and he was stunned, "Ah... Miss, where are we going?"

"East Factory!"

The little girl, who was more precocious than her peers, had a serious face, as if a gust of wind blew out of the mansion.

************************************************************

When the carriage stopped at Donghua Gate, it was almost dark, and the torches in the imperial prison in the factory were swaying in the dim light.

Bang!

The whip flew through the air, and the strong man on the punishment rack screamed heart-wrenchingly in pain. In his unsealed mouth, he kept shouting mercy to the prison guard who was executing his execution.

The exposed upper body is almost invisible, and most of the wounds are in a deep and outturned shape. If they are whipped up again by a whip stained with salt water, the severe pain will not dissipate like an ant climbing, and new pain will climb up again, and few people can survive for a few rounds.

However, this side will not be tortured all the time. They will stop asking questions from time to time in the middle. If the other party is in a coma, they will pounce on them with the cold water they have prepared earlier and continue to ask questions.

The person who was tortured was the boatman who was arrested during the day. He survived two or three hours and fell into a coma several times in the middle. Without exception, he woke up and continued to be questioned and continued to be tortured. If it is serious, he will apply good medicine to rest for a while and continue.

"Please spare me... I really don't know anything..." The boatman who was hung on the torture rack shook his head in a confused sense, and the sound from his mouth still begged for mercy, but it became weaker and weaker.

"Where did the sword come from?"

"Picked up... picked up"

“Where did you pick it up?”

“…………on the river bank…Pingling Ferry…My home is there…”

"How did you pick it up?"

"There are...someone fighting...forgot there..."

"Where did you pick the sword?"

…

The questions are repeated continuously. If the man on the punishment rack hesitates, he will continue to be tortured. There will be a writing script next to him to record the questions one by one. If there is any repetition, it will be cut off. If there is any question, the jailer will continue to ask questions repeatedly.

Soon the prison gate was pushed open, and the fat figure brought several people in. The boatman looked at him slightly, and the blood robe in the curtain was blurred with blood. He didn't see clearly. There was a small figure standing next to him. When he wanted to see clearly, a whip was already hitting his face.

When the red marks spread, the whip fell to the ground, and someone shouted: "Cut your face!"

"You all go out first." Hai Dafu raised his hand behind him, and even the prison guards who were performing the execution retreated outside with the other eunuchs of all sizes.

After he walked away, he bent sideways to the little man beside him and said, "Miss, this is the boatman holding the sword of the governor. I have checked it before. He is indeed a boatman."

Xiao Linglong walked to the front of the torture frame with a stern face, looked up at the bloody human figure for a moment, "Are there any other discoveries? I have never seen anything that my father would forget."

Behind him, his footsteps moved slightly, and Hai Dafu stepped forward slowly: "I did find that the boatman's house had been destroyed, the dock ferry was also destroyed, and the scene was in a mess, but as he said, there had been a battle there."

The boatman endured the severe pain and raised his head, his face covered in blood, and his voice almost begged for miserable miserable: "I... really... I don't know what... it's too dark... I can't see clearly..."

"You - lie!" Xiao Linglong opened her mouth and paused word by word, picked up the whip on the ground, and hit the boatman's wrist with a crackling sound. The weakest part instantly collapsed, and his palms kept shaking.

Linglong held a whip and pointed at the other party, "If it was dark, how could you pick up my father's sword? If you saw them fighting, why wouldn't you destroy your mouth? It was obvious that you took the benefit of others. It seems that that person is not a cruel person, right?"

After saying this, she threw the whip and turned around and left the cell. Hai Dafu followed closely behind. Linglong stepped onto the stone steps in a small cloak and said, "I have already understood the matter... and put that person."

The words paused, and then said, "Let's go..."

"Yes, Miss, let's go back first, it's too dirty here." Hai Dafu coaxed the little man to bring the carriage, and he was relieved when he saw the carriage leaving the East Factory.

"The adoptive father... today's eldest lady seemed to doubt the governor..." The eunuch named Qin Shuang was the adopted son of Hai Dafu. When he saw that there were no outsiders around him, he boldly expressed his questions.

The study room was waiting for the candlelight to light up, and the shadows of the two of them were pulled on the wall. The old eunuch smiled, "It is right for the eldest lady to have some doubts, and our family is also a little suspicious. After all, our family is also an old man around the governor. Every word and action is engraved in his heart like a knife."

"The adoptive father means..." The little eunuch approached and his eyes turned, "..... is the governor in the palace actually fake?"

"Just doubt...."

Hai Dafu shook his head, "Don't do anything too absolute, but that person is indeed a bit strange. Xiao Chenzi had conveyed some of the commands of the governor before. At this moment, I think there is a lot of meaning. Don't investigate this matter in depth. You have too shallow foundation to avoid the unfairness of death. Okay, go down."

"Yes, my son will go down first."

In the candlelight, the old eunuch sitting behind the desk looked at his back as he turned around and left, narrowed his eyes, picked up his brush and wrote a few words on a piece of white paper.

Not long afterwards, he was conveyed out and sent to the palace quietly.

...

The darkness enveloped, and outside the city of Bianliang, a large amount of labor was being collected and laid in an open place in the suburbs.

On the road not far away, three figures finally arrived at Bianliang with their tired bodies. Looking at the huge black outline, the fat man with a big waist and thick waist sat on the ground.

"Oh my dear mother... finally arrived in Bianliang."

The woman among the three was also exhausted and knelt on the ground, rubbing the sweat from her head, looking at the misty sky, "Brother, we can't enter the city now... How can we find a man named Tang Long?"

"Isn't the letter from Lao Si to us a bald man? I should know when I entered the city, but I just couldn't understand why Lao Si suddenly knew people from the capital, oh... By the way, he said where to wait for Tang Long?"

Behind him, the bald man who was so tired that he stuck out his tongue pointed to the southwest: "Shifengzhuang..."

These three people were Wang Wei, Li San and Wenjuan who were blocked by Bai Ning before. They were just for the purpose of sending the letter. The three of them were not sure about it, and they came over in a daze.

However, a team of torches appeared in front of him. The soldiers who came from Bianliang Night Patrol General were the soldiers who were the camp. The leader looked at the three of them and waved: "I am not staying in the craftsman's camp in the middle of the night. Why do I run out and go back immediately."

"ah?"

The leader kicked the fat man's butt: "What, hurry up and go back to rest, the work will start soon. I won't be exhausted to see you."

While being stared at the escort to the craftsman's camp, the bald man looked at the surroundings and whispered to the fat man: "Boss... It seems that the situation is not right..."

"Idiot! Everyone knows that something is wrong." Wang Wei turned around and cursed at him.

When the three realize that it is bad.

At this time, there is no chance for them to escape.
