Chapter 54 Torture
In the elegant small courtyard, guards were coming and going, but there was no maid. In the hall, Li Qun was sitting on the upper seat, and there was one person standing at the bottom.
This man is not unfamiliar, because he is the man who was beaten alive while eating the Overlord meal in Jingyue Tower just now.
Zhang Che stood next to Li Qun's two young men. His eyes glanced at Li Qun from time to time, with a look in his eyes.
In fact, Li Qun did not go to Jingyue Tower for Cui Xiu, because he had no idea that Cui Xiu would go, but he just happened to meet the waiter in the tavern taking her with him.
When Li Qun heard the noise, he deliberately pushed the door of the room open so that Cui Xiu could see him.
Li Qun went to Jingyue Tower because of the man in front of him, Zhang Che, a man from the south of the Yangtze River.
"Sir, don't listen to the nonsense of the boss of Jingyue Tower."
"I paid for the meal, but I didn't eat the Overlord meal."
Zhang Che As he said that, he immediately bent over, with a nervous and flattering expression on his face, and the emotions in his eyes just now were also hidden.
When Li Qun heard Zhang Che's words, he paused while playing with the jade, his eyes fell on the jade in his hand, and he slowly said: "Dong Zuo."
The fatter boy couldn't think of anything. Without thinking, he gave Zhang Che a kick and kicked him to the ground. Zhang Che didn't resist and fell to the ground.
Zhang Che crawled on the ground for a few seconds, and then heard Dong Zuo say: "Master, you don't have to act with us here."
"Why did we bring you here? Yes, you should know it in your heart."
As soon as Dong Zuo said this, the expression on Zhang Che's face became even more frightened. He slowly got up, but he was still kneeling on the ground, with his head lowered. His eyes rolled from side to side.
"Here, I don't know what you are talking about."
"I just had a meal at Jingyue Tower."
"What kind of acting? Sir, you can You can’t listen to the slanderous words of that damn boss.”
“He must be trying to harm me because he thinks I won’t pay him!”
Zhang Che was not worried about Dong Zuo’s words. When he was shaken, he was still talking about the incident where the shopkeeper of Jingyue Tower beat him out for eating the Overlord meal.
Li Qun listened, but the expression on his face didn't change much. Did he regard them as a yamen?
This guy is really interesting.
"Dong You, you ask."
As soon as Li Qun said this, the tall and thin boy standing on the other side of Zhang Che took a few steps forward and took out a bottle from his waist. Holding the dagger, he squatted down without thinking, and then pulled out the dagger.
Dong You raised his hand and pulled Zhang Che's collar, then put the dagger in front of Zhang Che's neck and said with a cold face: "You'd better explain everything."
"Otherwise, I will kill you with one blow!" As soon as Dong You's threatening words came out, Zhang Che was trembling with fright, his eyes widened subconsciously, and his face was full of panic.
He looked like he had never seen such a scene before. He was afraid that if the dagger came any closer, Zhang Che would faint.
Dong You's main theme is that he doesn't like nonsense and gets to the point.
"My lord, please slow down."
"I really don't know what you want to know."
"How about you ask me what you want to know."
"If I knew, I would definitely answer you."
Li Qun put down the jade in his hand and looked at it. Turning to Zhang Che, his eyes were sharp, and when he looked at a person, it seemed as if he was about to penetrate someone's heart in an instant.
"Okay." Li Qun said, since Zhang Che is so tough-mouthed, there is no need to treat him like an ordinary person. As soon as Zhang Che heard Li Qun's words, he quickly raised his hand to take away the dagger Dong You put on his neck.
But before he touched the dagger, Li Qun said: "Who imprisoned you in Jiangnan, and who released you."
"Who is the mastermind behind the scenes."
As soon as Li Qun said this, Zhang Che's face that was pretending to be crazy changed reflexively, and his eyes became more alert. He originally wanted to fool him.
Unexpectedly, he met someone who really wanted to pry open his mouth. Many people wanted to kill him along the way.
Fortunately, he was lucky, and he hid from batches of killer bandits along the way, and finally reached the capital with his life saved.
He originally thought of going to Jingyue Tower for a meal first and then going home, but he never thought that the shopkeeper of Jingyue Tower had actually changed and he no longer recognized him.
He also beat him out. How could he have suffered such injustice in his whole life?
Fortunately, he met a kind person, Cui Xiu, who helped him pay and let him leave.
He hadn't even taken two steps when he was kidnapped by these two boys in black. He was stunned by the ones who covered his head along the way.
He hasn’t returned to the capital this year. Didn’t he expect that the capital is already in such chaos?
"May I ask who you are?"
"Why do you want to ask about this matter?"
Zhang Che changed his crazy look, slowly raised his head, and looked at the person sitting not far away of Li group.
A few years ago, Zhang Checi went out to travel and met many talented people in the world. Some people would only meet once in a lifetime, so he wanted to stay longer in Jiangnan. time.
Never thought that one of the capable men and strangers would provoke someone they shouldn't provoke, causing a group of them to be captured by the big shot and put into a heavily guarded compound.
They have to work every day and cannot talk to each other casually. If they are found to be suspected of sneaking out, they will definitely be arrested and beaten.
Zhang Che was able to come back, thanks to his family connections and communication with the people above, so he was able to escape. Otherwise, he wouldn't know how long he would have to stay there.
Now that he has just come back, someone has arrested him and brought him here. The feeling he feels here is very similar to the feeling he had when he was in Jiangnan.
Maybe the big shots above are worried about him, so they want to find someone to test him.
If he breaks the promise he made at that time and tells what happened in Jiangnan, he will be killed to silence him.
Maybe the person in front of him is the big shot behind the scenes, Zhang Che thought, with a hint of scrutiny in his eyes. This big shot has a really dirty heart.
Obviously he agreed to let him go, but in the end he was still uneasy and acted like this to frame him.
Is he someone who is easily framed? Why were so many people arrested but not released? Only he came out.
That's because he has a bright mind and is very smart, so he is not so easily deceived.
“No, how can you come up with so much nonsense!”
"Our lord asks you, and you answer truthfully."
Dong Zuo saw that Zhang Che not only refused to answer the question, but also asked who they were. Isn't this deliberately looking for trouble?
The adults in his family don't have that much patience. If Zhang Che doesn't answer properly, the dagger in Dong's right hand will fall.
When the ground is bleeding and people are gone, there won’t be so much nonsense to talk about.
