"Your Majesty, bring the suspect."

Nan Muchen was sitting in the dungeon of the Criminal Department, looking at the suspect who was being escorted and kneeling under the hall.

Just one glance surprised Nan Muchen.

"why you?"

Ling Mohan, who was injured on his leg, knelt down in the hall and tried to get rid of the hand that was restraining him. However, the more he struggled, the harder he was held down. The arrow wound on his leg also started to bleed again due to the struggle.

Hearing that Nan Muchen recognized him, Ling Mohan raised his head and looked at Nan Muchen in the hall.

"Why can't it be me?"

Feeling that there were more and more problems, Nan Muchen asked sternly.

"Ling Mohan, as a minister of Beijing, why did you come to Nanqi to assassinate the envoy of Xihe? What is your purpose? Recruit from the truth."

The pain on Ling Mohan's leg was severe, and he grinned to avoid any annoyance.

"I, Ling Mohan, do things for myself. I am responsible for Beijing, Xihe and Nanqi. I just want to kill that bastard Xihe who insists on causing Xuaner's death."

I don’t know who the bastard is, but he’s still acting plausibly. Nan Muchen can’t help but shake his head. Fortunately, Mu Mu doesn’t like you, otherwise she would have suffered.

"Ling Mohan, since you know that he is an official of Xihe, you want to assassinate him. How can you have nothing to do with Beijing and start the war between the two countries? But you alone can bear the responsibility."

After saying that, Nan Muchen signaled the imperial guards who were restraining Ling Mohan to retreat. He then ordered someone else to bring a chair for Ling Mohan to sit down.

"Nan Muchen, why don't you believe Xuan'er?"

Not caring about the war between the two countries, Ling Mohan asked, but Nan Muchen was not annoyed and asked calmly.

"Why don't you believe it?"

Ling Mo snorted coldly after gouging out the quibbling Nan Muchen.

"If you believed her, how could you have pronounced the death penalty?"

What a young boy, Nan Muchen sighed sadly.

"The queen is still alive today, but that may not be the case for you, Ling Mohan."

He laughed out loud.

"As long as Xuan'er is fine, my life and death, Ling Mohan, will be a trivial matter."

He's very proud, but I don't know if he can really be so cool when the knife is on his neck.

"Ling Mohan, why did you sneak into the palace to assassinate the envoys of Xihe, and then go to the post house to kill the officials accompanying Xihe? You didn't recruit him from the truth."

Hearing this inexplicably, Ling Mohan shook his head.

"If you say that I killed the officials accompanying Xihe in the post house, I admit it. However, if you say that I sneaked into the palace and killed the envoys of Xihe, I, Ling Mohan, will never admit it."

Narrowing his obsidian peach blossom eyes, Nan Muchen suddenly smiled sinisterly.

"Who instigated you..."

He raised his head disdainfully.

"Why should I, Ling Mohan, be instigated by others?"

Too lazy to continue the interrogation, Nan Muchen called the master next to him, checked the records one by one, and ordered the people around him to tie up Ling Mohan.

Immediately, the Imperial Guards came forward and tied Ling Mohan to the torture rack.

"Why, Nan Muchen, if you can't ask me, are you going to give in? I, Ling Mohan, am not afraid of your tricks."

Nan Muchen laughed without mind.

"Ling Mohan, why do I need to beat him into submission?"

With a wink, the master, who was holding a confession book, came to Ling Mohan and motioned to the imperial guard next to him to hold Ling Mohan's fingers.

He took the ink pad and dipped it on Ling Mohan's fingers that were desperately flexing and stretching. Together with the imperial guards, he held Ling Mohan's fingers and pressed them on the confession book.

At this moment, Ling Mohan, who knew he had fallen into the trap, yelled loudly.

"Nan Muchen, you despicable villain!"

Looking at Ling Mohan, whose eyes were so wide that they were almost bleeding, as if he were stupid, Nan Muchen passed by proudly with his tail raised.

"The winner is a prince and the loser is a bandit. What is despicable? Master Ling, please give me some advice."

Ling Mohan, who almost lost his breath, looked up to the sky and shouted, while Nan Muchen walked out of the Criminal Department dungeon with a proud smile.

After calling Lu Qi over and handing the confession to Lu Qi, Nan Muchen immediately gave the order.

"The confession will be made in two copies, one will be sent to Emperor Beijing at high speed, and the other will be sent secretly to Donglin."

Lu Qi was a little surprised when he held the confession in his hand. Why was it that none of the confessions about the assassination of Xihe's envoys were for Xihe?

As if he guessed what Lu Qi was thinking, Nan Muchen gently patted Lu Qi's shoulder.

"The troubles caused by the people of Beijing will naturally have to be dealt with by the emperor of Beijing. The plans devised by Donglin will naturally have to be paid for by Donglin. As for us Nanqi, we just need to be good victims."

Lu Qi, who understood most of it, looked down at the confession lying in his hand, raised his head and asked.

"Isn't the Emperor afraid that Xihe will send troops to Nanqi because he has not received a reply yet?"

Hearing this, Nan Muchen curled his lips disdainfully.

“It’s a small foreign country, why should we care about it?”

Arrive in front of the head of the department with confidence.

Upon hearing that the emperor was coming, all the officials and subordinates in charge of the department gathered together to greet him.

Confidently, he ordered everyone to go about their official duties. Nan Muchen asked about the cell where Su Mumu was, and then walked towards the cell.

Su Mumu was very happy playing cards face to face with Forsythia. The two of them played to the fullest, with notes all over their faces.

Holding a hard playing card made by Su Mumu himself, Forsythia was standing in a row. Wang Zhao shouted randomly. When he looked up, he saw Nan Muchen entering the prison with a smile on his face.

"emperor!?"

For a moment, her mind couldn't turn around. Forsythia sat there stiffly and did not get up.

"What emperor? You are Wang Zha, where did you come from? If you keep shouting, this game will be forfeited." Su Mumu, who was about to lose again, had long since lost the temper to put a sticker on her face, and took the opportunity to correct herself.

I wanted to cheat, but suddenly I saw Forsythia sliding off the bed and kneeling on the ground.

"Forsythia, are you crazy? Why do you kneel down while playing cards?..."

While teasing Su Mumu, he followed Forsythia's eyes and looked behind him, and happened to see Nan Muchen's smiling peach blossom eyes very close at hand.

"Oh my goodness!"

Su Mumu was suddenly startled and fell directly from the bed to the ground.

Holding her butt that hurt from the fall, Su Mumu rolled her eyes at the sudden appearance of Nan Muchen in displeasure.

"Nan Muchen, what are you doing here? Are you here to see if I am dead?"

Turning a deaf ear, he stretched out his long arms, picked up Su Mumu from the ground and held her against his chest.

"I'm here to take you back."

Ignoring the surprised looks from others, Nan Muchen carried Su Mumu all the way back to the Nourishing Heart Hall from the Head Office.

"Nan Muchen, put me down quickly, I'm so embarrassed!"

Su Mumu, who was struggling, clenched her pink fist and kept beating Nan Muchen's chest, which made her feel a little dizzy. Nan Muchen smiled evilly and whispered a warning.

"Su Mumu, if you dare to move again, be careful that I kiss you until you die in public."

Knowing that Nan Muchen always kept his word, Su Mumu immediately nestled in Nan Muchen's arms and did not dare to move.

"That's weird."

Satisfied, she pushed Su Mumu in her arms with both arms. When she noticed that Su Mumu seemed to have lost two kilograms, Nan Muchen suddenly showed displeasure.

"Why have you lost weight?"

Biting her lip in embarrassment, Su Mumu refused to confess.

He immediately lowered his head threateningly, causing Su Mumu to blurt out.
