After rebirth, mother is hard to do

Chapter 224 Interrogation
In the secret room, Cui Shi was hung on an iron chain.

A look of pain appeared on that pretty face.Her eyes were slack, her lips were chapped, and it was painful to watch.

A man on the opposite side beat her with a whip.Snapped!Snapped!Snapped!Whip after whip, she was beaten to pieces.

"Say it? Say it? How many of you? Who sent you? What do you want to steal? Tell me!" the man pressed while beating.

Cui groaned, and with the number of times he whipped her, she cried weakly.The man was merciless, the whip had barbs on it, and every time he swung the whip, the barbs drew some flesh and blood.

Meng Yuxuan and Ye Shiqi looked at the door for a long time.The woman looked delicate and weak, but she didn't expect to be able to carry it like this.Her delicate skin has been beaten beyond recognition, and she still doesn't say a word.

The man was tired and stopped to rest.When he saw Meng Yuxuan, he quickly saluted and said, "I've seen Madam."

Ye Shiqi opened the door, and Meng Yuxuan walked in.She looked at Cui who was hanging there, and said with a smile, "Auntie, why did you become like this?"

When Cui heard Meng Yuxuan's voice, she weakly opened her eyes.She grinned, showing her bloody teeth, and said, "Don't try to ask me anything, I won't say it."

Meng Yuxuan said coldly: "Really? Then I'm sorry. I might do something disrespectful to my aunt. Auntie has to hold back, don't call out. After all, you are such a beautiful woman, if you call It's too ugly, it really affects your image."

As Meng Yuxuan spoke, she stuffed a pill into his mouth.

The pill melted in the mouth, and Cui Shi didn't even have a chance to vomit it out.Not long after, Cui felt as if countless bugs were crawling in her body.That feeling was very itchy, every part of her body was itchy, but she couldn't scratch it.She looked at Meng Yuxuan in pain and said, "Kill me!"

"I won't kill you." Meng Yuxuan sat on the stool brought by Ye Shiqi, looked up at her, and smiled, "I don't like killing people."

"Isn't what you did more cruel than killing others?" Cui stared at her angrily. "If you have the ability, kill me!"

"You can't provoke me. I won't kill you. What good is killing you?" Meng Yuxuan looked at her. "If you tell me everything I want to know, I'll detoxify you."

Cui was desperate and prepared to bite her tongue and commit suicide.However, when she was about to bite down, Ye Qiqiu grabbed her acupuncture points.She widened her eyes and looked angrily at the few people opposite.

Cui couldn't move, but the poison was still circulating in his body.She is in great pain, but now she can't even cry out.That kind of pain is more painful than being stabbed several times at the same time.

Meng Yuxuan saw that it was almost time.She said to Cui Shi: "If you are willing to cooperate, just blink your eyes."

Cui now only wants to be relieved, and doesn't want to think about anything else.She blinked quickly.

Ye Shiqi unlocked her acupuncture points.

As soon as Cui was relieved, she quickly said: "The person who ordered us is..."

Before she finished speaking, a person appeared at the door and shot the hidden weapon in her hand at her.Puchi!The hidden weapon hit Cui Shi's heart.Cui suffocated like this.

Before she died, her eyes were filled with a relaxed smile.In her opinion, speaking out is death, and not speaking is also death.That's fine now.She finally didn't have to suffer anymore.

The person who used the hidden weapon killed Cui Shi and left immediately.Ye Shiqi chased him out.Meng Yuxuan stood up, lifted Cui Shi's clothes, and checked her body.Especially the hidden weapon that assassinated her, the workmanship and the patterns on it were a bit special, which gave her a strange feeling.

There is a pattern on Cui's back.It was a flower, like a rose.She didn't know what this generation meant.

There are several bottles of medicine on Cui's body, most of which are healing medicines, and only one bottle is poison.In addition, a hidden weapon was also found.It was a dart with roses on it too.

"Rose... It seems that we should ask who likes to use rose patterns as marks." Meng Yuxuan said to herself.

The man who tortured Cui just now saw that she was dead, and asked, "Ma'am, what should I do with this person's body?"

"Keep it for now! Come back night after night and let them deal with it." Meng Yuxuan took one last look at Cui Shi and left the smoky place.

In the courtyard, Yeyiyeer and the remaining dozen or so hidden guards knelt there.Each of them was wounded, but at this moment they didn't care about healing, but knelt there to plead guilty.

"Go back and rest!" Meng Yuxuan said, "You have tried your best, I know."

"But let her escape, what about the little master's poison?" This is the reason why the hidden guards chased after them even if they didn't want their lives.They want to catch those people so that they can save a few little masters.Now that no one has been arrested, they feel very uncomfortable.After all, the lives of those many brothers were sacrificed for the safety of a few little masters.

"There is still a chance next time." Meng Yuxuan was also very sad, but what can she do now?The guards have done their best.Even if you want to blame, you should blame her for being incompetent.

Only Ye Nineteen has not come back yet.Ye Nineteen said that Tang Yu was good at disguise.Now let's see if Ye Nineteen can bring back good news.

This night is very long.The patriarch of the Wu clan was unconscious, and Meng Yuxuan had to take this person's safety into consideration first.After all, he is the last hope of several children.

The study in the space has been entered several times.The book was blank.She didn't know if it was because she used it too much and relied too much on space, or if space really didn't know how to detoxify.

While waiting, Shangguan Huan returned with tens of thousands of soldiers.They fought a big victory and defeated the enemy steadily, leaving only tens of thousands of the opponent's 50 people.Even if the emperor wanted to attack them, he would not be able to recruit troops in a short time.Besides, with this prestige, they have to take their own strength into account if they want to make another move.

"Xuan'er, I'm back." Shangguan Huan immediately looked for Meng Yuxuan as soon as he entered the mansion.

Meng Yuxuan stood at the door waiting for his return.She looked at him, raised a bright smile, and said, "Are you hurt? Go back and let me see."

"Don't worry. I'll make arrangements for the brothers first, and then I'll show you enough when I come back." Shangguan Huan still doesn't know what happened to the children.Meng Yuxuan didn't want him to be worried as soon as he came back, so she smiled.

When Shangguan Huan arranged for the soldiers to come back, Meng Yuxuan had already prepared a table full of meals waiting for him.Shangguanxi helped to set the dishes.

"Father." Seeing Shangguan Huan standing at the door, Shangguanxi hastily greeted him. "Father, I'm worried about the dead child."

Shangguan Huan looked at Shangguanxi, and said lovingly: "Silly boy, I will be fine. Don't you know what your father is capable of?"

"Come over to eat! Xi'er, don't pester your father. He is tired, let him eat and drink enough, let him sleep, and then you father and son can talk well." Meng Yuxuan said gently.

Shangguan Xi dragged Shangguan Huan to the table.Shangguan Huan looked around and asked suspiciously, "Where are Lin'er and your daughter?"

"Your daughter is going out to play, and Hui Ling took her to look at the flowers and plants in the yard. Lin'er is still in his prime now, and the girls have already fed him and are playing." Meng Yuxuan was in a heavy heart, and mentioned their Sometimes a little sad.

Shangguan Huan was careless and did not notice anything unusual about her.Shangguanxi took her reaction seriously.He took Meng Yuxuan's hand and asked her silently.

Shangguanxi doesn't know his body yet.The hidden guards knew about the situation, but they wouldn't tell her.Meng Yuxuan would not tell him.Therefore, he didn't know why Meng Yuxuan was troubled. '

Hearing that the two children were already full, Shangguan Huan was no longer polite.He sits at the table and eats.Both Shangguanxi and Meng Yuxuan served her food.

At this time, Ye Nineteen came back to his life.When he saw Shangguan Huan come back, he stood at the door and dared not enter.

Meng Yuxuan immediately stood up when she saw him.

Shangguan Huan and Shangguan Xi looked at her at the same time.

"I asked Ye Nineteen to find someone for me, you guys eat it! I'll go and ask about the situation." Meng Yuxuan said to the father and son.

"Let him come in and say. I'm back, and there are some things you can't bear alone." Shangguan Huan wiped the corner of his mouth. "My imperial brother didn't start again so soon. After all, he just suffered a defeat, and neither the hearts of the people nor the hearts of the soldiers are with him. We have time to deal with other things. As for the soldiers' compensation and rewards, I will give them one by one. They hand it out."

"Since you still have so many things to deal with, leave the other small things to me. You don't need to listen, it will bother you." Meng Yuxuan smiled lightly.

The more Meng Yuxuan was like this, the more Shangguan Huan realized something was wrong.Meng Yuxuan wouldn't avoid him even if she didn't need him for anything.The more she avoided, she was afraid that something big would happen.

Shangguan Huan is not a fool.Usually he can pretend to be deaf and dumb, but it doesn't mean that he is really deaf and dumb.At this time, Meng Yuxuan's concealment made him suspicious. He saw her nervous, but he couldn't bear to force her.He thought for a while and sighed: "Then listen to you. If there is anything you can't handle, just leave it to me."

Meng Yuxuan secretly breathed a sigh of relief.She quickly responded and said, "Then I'll listen to what he has to say first."

Meng Yuxuan took Ye Shijiu to the yard.

Ye Nineteen knelt down and said to Meng Yuxuan: "I was about to find the woman, but Wu Feng found my subordinate at this time, and the subordinate fought with him for a while, and the woman ran away.

"They're still in the city." Meng Yuxuan said, "It's impossible for them to leave without getting something. As long as the things in the warehouse are still there, we still have a chance to catch them."

"Did Madam go to the warehouse? Is there something worth their trouble?" Ye Nineteen asked.

"This... I haven't seen it yet." Meng Yuxuan was annoyed.She had forgotten such an important thing. "You rest first! Leave the rest to me."

A breeze blew through her hair.In this hot season, such a gust of wind is really timely.

Meng Yuxuan stood in front of the window, watching the leaves swaying in the strong wind outside.She closed her eyes, feeling the coolness of the breeze on her face, and at the same time, the heat in her heart subsided a little.

Shangguan Huan hugged her waist from behind.He rested his head on her shoulder and said, "What are you thinking?"

"You must be exhausted during this time." Meng Yuxuan smelled that he had just taken a bath.His hair was still dripping. "I'll wring you dry."

"No need, it will be done in a while." Shangguan Huan let go of her hand and looked at her tenderly. "Xuan'er, you have something on your mind. Can't you even tell me?"

"It's not that I can't say it, it's that I don't know how to say it." Meng Yuxuan lowered her eyes and said, "You were born and died outside, and I can't even do small things well. I'm really useless."

"Silly girl, who said this? If it wasn't for you, how would we have built this place? If it wasn't for you, how could we have lasted so long? Those weapons were all drawn by you." Shangguan Huan held her face and said seriously look at her. "What happened? Tell me, let's figure it out together."

"The woman I mentioned last time is the woman named Tang Yu. She is good at poisoning. When I was busy governing City of Hope, she poisoned our children." Meng Yuxuan said with her head down: "None of the three children survived. The little girl discovered it early, and the poison I injected happened to be something I could cure, so I rescued them. I have nothing to do with the other two children."

When Shangguan Huan heard her choking, his heart ached.He hugged her tightly and said softly, "I'm here, don't be afraid. Let's find a way together."

"I thought the patriarch of the Wu clan could help, but he is not good at poisoning. He said that the only way to solve it completely is to catch that woman. But I let her run away." Meng Yuxuan said sadly.

"Ye Shijiu came to report just now, but he didn't find that woman?" Shangguan Huan asked.

"Yeah. That woman is good at disguise, so I let her run away after all. What to do? Once she runs away, what will happen to the children?" Meng Yuxuan said worriedly: "I'm sorry, I didn't take good care of them."

"You are not a god, and it is impossible to solve everything. You are so busy during this time, it is normal for you to neglect your children. Although I am also worried now, I can't blame you for it." Shangguan Huan looked tenderly looking at her. "So, don't think about those things anymore. I will find a way to find the woman."

"She wanted to steal something from our house. I interrupted the plan last time and didn't take anything away. I think they will come again." Meng Yuxuan sniffed, controlled her emotions, and calmly analyzed it to Shangguanhuan Condition.She explained the ins and outs of the whole matter clearly, so that Shangguan Huan could understand the current situation.

After hearing this, Shangguan Huan understood what those people meant.He also knew the origins of these people.

"The person with the rose pattern and such behavior is probably not from our country." Shangguan Huan said, "It should be the eldest princess of our enemy country."

"Huh?" Meng Yuxuan was puzzled. "The princess they are talking about, I thought it was Princess Hualing or Princess Ziyang, isn't it?"

"There is an eldest princess in the enemy country. She has been mysterious since she was a child, and she seems to have special power. She has been feared by her tribe since she was a child, and even her father dared not touch her. She was never married and established a mysterious organization in the enemy country. That organization is very powerful, and sometimes they even take on assassination business. From my point of view, they should be right.”
