King Yue lowered his eyes and looked over: "What's going on?"
"Reporting to Your Highness, this person just arrived this morning. Now, he suddenly wants to sneak out of the camp and get caught by us. After that, he will struggle non-stop."
"Where was he placed?"
"Ordinary tents." At first, when they saw this person sneakily escape from the camp, they thought that he was isolated due to the epidemic situation. However, according to the guards, he was only arranged to be in a normal camp, which meant that his body was healthy. Since that's the case, why did he not stay in the camp?
Do you have to leave?
"Raise your head."
The man had been forced to raise his head, but he did not look at the Titan who he had spoken to. Instead, his gaze fell upon Mu Yunyao's body. There was an extremely complicated expression in his eyes.
Mu Yunyao slowly walked over, her brows slightly knit together."You know me?"
The man hurriedly shook his head, but the panic in his eyes deepened."I don't know the princess."
Mu Yunyao had a hunch that there was a problem with this person. She turned her head and instructed a guard at the side, "Bring him to His Highness Duke of Yue's tent. I have some things to ask."
"Yes."
Inside King Yue's tent, Mu Yunyao was not in a hurry to ask questions. Instead, she sent people to gather information to see who this person was in contact with and what kind of news it was that they were about to leave. Very quickly, Si Qin sent over the news. After she finished reading it, Mu Yunyao's forehead slightly creased."Since you were brought here by me, you should know that if you don't explain yourself, you will never have the chance to leave. Now, do you want to explain yourself and avoid physical pain, or do I have to have someone torture you and interrogate you?
"
"Princess, please spare my life. This commoner is just a commoner. The reason for this is because I want to leave the camp in a hurry. I want to go to Yi River City to search for my missing family. I ask you, Princess, to let this commoner leave."
"What's your name?"
"This commoner's name is Tension."
"Tension?" Mu Yunyao looked at the man in front of her as thoughts raced through her mind."There's still a flood in Yi River City, so your ability to find people is limited. Tell me the whereabouts of your family members and I'll send someone to help you find them."
"No ..." I don't dare to trouble you, Princess. Mu Yunyao coldly laughed, "Family? You already have no family, what you said just now was a lie you made up in order to leave! Your body is healthy, and you haven't gotten sick. You don't have to worry about your own safety if you stay in the camp. Everyday, you will have porridge on your belly, which is definitely better than staying outside to look for food ...
Eat. That is to say, you have a reason to leave. Is it because of me? Or perhaps it is because the Su Clan ... " The information on the paper was extremely detailed. This person had to leave after knowing his identity, and when they met afterwards, it was clear that it was Yue Yang who was questioning her, but the first thing he did was to look at her. That was to say, even if he wasn't sure that Yue Yang had definitely seen her before, it could at least mean that he knew something about her.
He did not want her to know about this news, so no matter how he thought about it, the Su Clan was the most likely target.
As expected, when he heard the two words "Su Family", the man's strained face suddenly went pale white, without a single trace of blood. You."How could you ..."
Mu Yunyao's eyes moved. Indeed, she had guessed correctly, he had a relationship with the Su Family, and he even knew her!
A person suddenly flashed through her mind. Could this person be the son of the midwife who helped deliver the old mistress of the Su family, the last person to see her father?
"You caused the death of my father, so you're guilty right?"
"I didn't!" "I have a close personal relationship with your father, how could I possibly kill him!"
"The Su Clan told me and even found evidence. Do you still want to argue?" This person was hiding in Yi River City and was very far away from the capital. He probably wouldn't know that the Su Clan members had already been imprisoned.
"It is the Su family that is deceiving the princess! Princess, I really didn't kill Brother Mu Cheng. It was the Su Family, and the Su Family caused his death! "
"Words have no basis, why should I believe you?"
"The princess already knows that she is the granddaughter of Grand Princess Yi De. In other words, she has nothing to do with the Su family. How could she still believe the words of the Su family?"
After Mu Cheng died, he fled the capital and hid himself carefully along the way. It was with great difficulty that he settled down here. Who knew that after just a few days of peace, there would be a flood in Yishui City? In the beginning, his heart was filled with joy at being able to survive. Afterwards, he met a merchant from the capital who came to the camp to do business, and when he heard about Mu Yunyao's legend, he became more convinced.
The more he panicked, the more he realized that this Mu Yunyao was clearly the daughter of Mu Cheng and Su Qing. Although he knew that Mu Yunyao would not recognize him, he did not dare take the risk and quickly left. He did not expect that just as he was about to say that he was leaving the tent, the guard would bring him to be interrogated.
Mu Yunyao. If he had known earlier, he would have hidden himself among the victims with peace of mind. In any case, there were so many people, it was possible that Mu Yunyao might not have noticed him.
"The daughter of the Su family saved my mother's life. To my mother and I, she is my benefactor. I don't believe that they would believe you, the murderer." As matters stand, I do not wish to hear any more of your excuses. Men, come and drag him down and deal with him; I do not wish to see him again."
"Princess, have mercy, Princess ..." Seeing that the guards were about to drag him down, without giving him much time to think, he shouted, "Princess, the Su family is full of nonsense. The Su family's old mistress only has Su Jin as her daughter!"
Mu Yunyao raised her hand to signal the guards to go down. Her cold eyes stared at the tension as she asked, "What do you mean by this?" At this time, he could only leave behind his life by revealing what he knew, "Princess, you should know that my mother was a midwife of the Old Madam of the Su Family. The Eldest Master and Second Master of the Su Family were both responsible for the delivery of the baby by my mother, and she was highly regarded by the Old Madam of the Su Family. At that time, I was only seven years old. I didn't know what had happened, so I just kept on crying. Afterwards, I was drugged and passed out. When I woke up, I was already far away from home.
When I finally got back, my home had already been burnt to ruins. My parents and sister had also lost their lives in the sea of fire."
"The Su Clan should be aware of your clan's situation. Didn't they notice you escaping right away?"
"My mother used silver to buy a boy who was similar to me. The Su Clan thought that I had also died, but they did not know that my mother was stiff on her behalf. Thus, I was able to escape calamity."
"And after that?" Then I remembered something my mother had repeatedly told me before she sent me away, to go under the bricks by the well and take out the things she had left behind, and to keep them well, and not to let anyone know about them. When I took it out, it was a letter. At first I could not read, I could not read what was written on the letter, and when I thought of what you had told me, I dared not ask anyone to look it up. Later on, when I learned a thing or two, I found out why my parents died. She had helped the Old Madam of the Su family fabricate a daughter. In other words, the daughter that the Su Clan had claimed to have lost never existed from the beginning to the end."
