Chapter 63 Interrogation of Cuihua
Cuihua was a little panicked.
——What are you doing! What are you doing? How could a dozen big-bodied soldiers be killed in one go? I remember that the emperor did not have the setting of a martial arts master!
At this time, Tang Ru became angry and shouted: "Your Majesty, you actually killed my servant. I want to file a complaint with my mother!"
Only then did Cuihua wake up and react suddenly.
--Yes. There is also Zhenbei Hou behind us. No matter what, this is a historical novel, not a fairy tale. No matter how powerful she is, can she still kill an entire army of 500,000 people? !
Cuihua calmed down immediately.
"Your Majesty is really good at his skills, and the little girl admires them very much." Cuihua said with a slight smile: "But it only stops here. When an ordinary man is angry, he can only bleed five steps. Even if you kill these dozen servants today, Even if you kill both of us, so what? Can you still kill Zhenbei Hou and his 500,000-strong army?"
Chu Lu walked towards the two of them expressionlessly.
Cuihua was not panicked. She believed that the situation was so obvious that as long as Chu Lu still had some brains, he would think rationally, analyze the pros and cons, and then surrender honestly.
After all, this is a novel for girls. No matter how aggrieved or ridiculed, it is a reasonable development to surrender honestly. There is no possibility of losing one's mind and turning the table over in anger.
"If you kill us, the furious Zhenbei Hou will only make Dayan pay a thousand times a hundred times the price." Cuihua continued: "If you want to take us hostage, it is useless. I have already talked to Zhenbei Hou has analyzed the pros and cons. As long as she takes the attitude of dying together, you don't dare to kill us to avoid retaliation in the future."
Chu Lu continued to move forward.
"Of course, the emperor's performance today is indeed unexpected. Zhenbeihou likes people who are brave and good at fighting, so I can leave a way for you to survive." Cuihua said: "As long as you surrender, cooperate obediently, and give up the throne to Zhenbei. Beihou, how about I let you live the rest of your life leisurely?"
Cuihua had a beautiful thought in her heart, thinking that this could also solve the problem of legitimacy. She originally planned to use Chu Lu's brothers and sisters as tokens, but this was obviously not as good as Chu Lu himself.
At this time Chu Lu had already arrived in front of Cuihua.
"What are you doing?" Cuihua frowned and said, "Why are you still pretending? I'll leave it all to you..."
Chu Lu raised his leg and kicked Cuihua in the knee.
That kick looked ordinary, the movement was not fast, and the amplitude was not large, as if it was a slapstick between friends. However, after such an ordinary kick landed on Cuihua's knee, Cuihua's right leg sank directly in, and the gap between her calf and thigh was bent at a hundred and ten degrees.
"Ahhh!" Cuihua screamed immediately and fell to the ground.
She hugged her thighs in pain and shouted loudly: "What are you doing? What are you doing? Ahhhh! It hurts! Kill you! I'm going to kill you!"
Chu Lu didn't care about the other party's curses, but said with peace of mind: "Okay, you shouldn't be able to run away now."
Then he looked at Tang Ru.
The latter's face turned pale with fright when he heard Cuihua's screams. When he saw Chu Lu's eyes, he trembled even more and did not dare to speak.
"Come down." Chu Lu said.
"Oh." Tang Ru immediately came down obediently.
Chu Lu reached the position.
At this time, Cuihua looked at this scene and spoke again.
Although the severe pain of the broken leg made her mind go blank and she could only cry out, her resentment and shock helped her regain her sanity.
"Princess, you don't have to be afraid!" Cuihua shouted loudly: "She won't be proud for long! As long as she waits for the return of Zhenbei Hou, she will..."
"It's useless." Chu Lu interrupted her and said, "Zhenbei Hou can't help."
"Ha!" Cuihua sneered and said, "How can it be useless to lead an army of half a million people?! Or are you saying that you haven't read my letter and you think you can rely on an imperial edict to resolve it?"
"There is no need for an imperial edict, and I don't even need to do anything." Chu Lu looked at her and said, "There is no way your plan will succeed from the beginning."
"Fart! Keep farting! Don't think we will believe it!"
"Let me tell you..." Chu Lu said helplessly: "Do you... know what the power of commanding troops is and what the power of dispatching troops is?"
Cuihua sneered when she heard this.
Chu Lu continued: "Do you know how the imperial court's food and grass supply system is structured?"
Cuihua was still sneering. She couldn't understand what Chu Lu was talking about, so she just thought he was farting.
Chu Lu could only sigh and explain to these two fools.
Power comes from violence.
Therefore, the person with the most military power in a feudal dynasty was the de facto emperor.
But the problem is that if there is a war, most emperors will definitely not be willing to lead the army in person, preferring to let other generals go out. But this means surrendering military rights, which means the rights may be lost.
Therefore, emperors of all generations have been thinking hard about how to solve this problem.
After so many years of development, many corresponding methods have been found.
For example, separate the power of commanding troops and the power of deploying troops.
For example, control grain and grass.
For example, set up a supervisory army.
For example, placing the emperor's manpower among the middle and lower-level officers.
For example...
Wait, wait, etc., all these means are to ensure that the generals fighting outside are not capable of rebellion.
The amazing thing is that Dayan has done a good job in this regard.
When Chu Lu listened to Xu Liniang's introduction in the Prince Consort's Mansion, he was secretly shocked and couldn't understand why he did so...normally in this regard.
Chu Lu thought that maybe it was because this part of the content did not appear in the main text of the novel, so it did not have the flavor of female porn, but was deduced based on normal circumstances.
After all, Xu Liniang is the second generation. Logically speaking, Dayan should be relatively sound in all aspects.
In short, it was because he knew the situation of the army that Chu Lu was not worried at all about Cuihua's rebellion, and he felt helpless at Xu Liniang's shock and the fall of the imperial capital.
He rushed over in such a hurry just because he was worried that something unexpected would happen and Cuihua would run away again.
After listening to Chu Lu’s story.
Cuihua was still sneering.
She still didn't understand what Chu Lu was talking about, and still felt that Chu Lu was talking nonsense and wanted to deceive them.
"Princess, don't believe it. You talk about the power to command and mobilize troops. As long as she waits for the return of the Marquis of Zhenbei, she will be finished!"
"Ha..." Chu Lu sighed helplessly.
What he wanted to do was to explain the situation, make Cuihua give up, and facilitate the subsequent interrogation.
But it didn't work out like this. The other party's intelligence and knowledge were lower than he expected.
"Okay, okay." Chu Lu shook his head and said, "Since you can't understand people, let's torture him severely."
########
After that, it only took Chu Lu an hour to regain the imperial capital and bring order to the chaos.
Most of that time was spent running.
After all, as long as he found each general and explained the situation, the generals would suddenly understand and the problem would be solved.
Su Muyun and Zhao Shilang who were imprisoned were both released, the Zhenbei Hou Mansion was ransacked, and Tang Ru and Cuihua were imprisoned.
When Cuihua entered the cell, her momentum remained unabated and she even scolded her even harder. "Dog Emperor! Feudal trash! Do you know who I am?! You, a native, dare to attack me!"
Chu Lu crossed his arms and looked at Cuihua's posture. The last trace of luck was gone. He waved and said: "Get on the instrument of torture."
"Yes, Your Majesty." The jailers agreed and immediately came up carrying various instruments of torture.
Cuihua was not afraid when she saw this, and had an inexplicable sense of confidence: "Hmph, do you think I would be afraid of such a small scene?"
Chu Lu: "..."
"Don't kill her." Chu Lu ordered: "I will interrogate her later, so as long as she begs for mercy, I will stop."
"yes."
After giving the instructions, Chu Lu turned around and left the prison.
However, as soon as he reached the door of the prison, the guards came after him and reported: "Your Majesty, the prisoner is begging for mercy!"
Chu Lu: "??"
——So fast?
Chu Lu had no choice but to turn around and go back.
At this moment, Cuihua completely lost her previous toughness and confidence, and her whole face was full of tears.
"What torture tools did you use?" Chu Lu asked curiously.
"I put the clamp on her, and after just two clamps, she started crying and shouting that she was wrong," the jailer replied.
Chu Lu: "..."
——Emotions are hard-spoken!
Chu Lu approached Cuihua and asked, "Do you realize your mistake now?"
Cuihua nodded repeatedly. The pinch stick hurt more than she imagined, and when she thought that this was just the beginning, she immediately gave in.
"I want to ask you some questions, will you answer them honestly?" Chu Lu asked again.
Cuihua continued to nod.
"Very good." Chu Lu straightened up and said, "Everyone else should step aside. I want to interrogate her personally."
The jailers all obeyed and left.
Chu Lu found a stool and sat down, looked at Cuihua and said, "I'll get straight to the point and ask, are you a time traveler?"
"Eh?" Cuihua was shocked, "How do you know...ah! You are also a time traveler! That's why you are a martial arts master!"
Chu Lu nodded: "Yes, I am also a time traveler."
"That's it!" Cuihua suddenly realized, "No wonder my plans always fail!"
Cuihua then said: "Why didn't you tell me earlier! If I had told you earlier, I wouldn't have done this! We are all fellow villagers... By the way, where did you come from? Is it modern? But modern people are not like you Isn’t it something from a martial arts novel?”
"Are you from modern times?" Chu Lu asked, "How did you get here?"
"I don't know." Cuihua shook her head in confusion and said, "I just stayed up late last night reading, and when I woke up in the morning I felt lack of energy. I was hit by a car when I was crossing the road. As a result, I woke up and entered the book I read last night. "Your Majesty, it's your turn to give birth".
Chu Lu: "..."
He tried his best to ignore the weird title and think about the other party's situation.
——It seems to have nothing to do with the chat group. She might be the real protagonist in this female novel. Wear a book. Even though I don’t watch women’s videos very much, I know that this is a very popular subject there.
"Then why are you deliberately trying to frame the emperor?" Chu Lu thought for a while and asked: "Is there some kind of system? Can you go home after completing the task?"
"No." Cuihua said innocently, "I just want to live a good life. You don't know how hard it is to be a maid in the Liu Mansion."
When Cuihua said this, she burst into tears: "I work non-stop all day long. Liu Jinli is the one who picks up goods and deducts our money. I can't find a way to climb up?"
Chu Lu: "..."
He suddenly felt a little unmotivated.
After finally catching Cuihua, she interrogated her and got the answer, but the answer was... too ordinary.
It's like paving the way for a million-word puzzle, with all kinds of monsters and monsters involved, but the final result is like walking into science.
Chu Lu... was quite disappointed.
"Hey, so where did you wear it?" Cuihua kept asking nonstop, "It's modern, right? At least it should be from China, right? It's unlikely that a foreigner will wear it in online articles?"
"Huh?" Chu Lu frowned, "What country are you talking about?"
"China. Are you really a foreigner?" Cuihua also asked in surprise: "Then where are you from? You are not from the United States, are you?"
Chu Lu was thoughtful when he heard this, and suddenly asked: "When did you travel through time?"
"It's 2018."
Chu Lu always felt that something was wrong, and he had a vague guess in his mind. He asked: "Who are the popular celebrities over there now?"
"Ah? Why do you ask?"
"Just answer it."
"Okay. Of course the most popular actor is Lu Yicheng, who debuted as a child star at the age of three, worked with a big-name director at the age of ten, and became the best actor at the age of twenty. The most popular boy band leader debuted as a solo with a beautiful stage, and became a god in half a year Wang Ju'an. In addition, there are Li Zechuan and Shen Xiujin..."
The more Chu Lu listened, the weirder his face became: "What about Wu Yifan, Wang Junkai and the others?"
"??Who?"
A flash of heart palpitations flashed through her.
Chu Lu looked at her and thought in his heart.
——Something is wrong, something is obviously wrong. If she is the heroine of a time-traveling novel, then the main part of the story must be after the time-traveling. There should not be much description of modern times, so there is no need to do so many evasions. Hua Guo can still understand, but it would be redundant if all the stars are changed. Unless... she is not the heroine, but passed from other books.
"Um..." Chu Lu asked: "Are there people over there who are obviously third-tier bastards but are inexplicably blackmailed by the entire Internet? Or third-tier bastards who are extremely good-looking but have shitty business abilities? Or maybe they are obviously third-tier losers but have an ambiguous relationship with the movie star? And they will definitely end up on some kind of romance show, then perform uniquely and suddenly become famous."
"Everyone is black on the Internet? Isn't that Shen Xianyu? She used to do some glamorous black drafts, and she was very pretentious, like green tea. But when she came to the farming bar, she didn't even put on makeup, and just showed up in a work jacket. . When the show started, she lay down and did nothing. Everyone was shocked. "
Chu Lu: "..."
——Damn it, it’s an article about the entertainment industry!
Chu Lu was in a trance.
——It actually came from other novels. But what is the principle? Could it be that the theme of the sequel suddenly changed drastically? The heroine who was in the entertainment industry in the last book, is in the entertainment industry in the next book? I've never heard of such a thing.
"Then what..." Chu Lu paused and asked, "What was your original name? I mean the one before time travel."
"My name is Wang Luyao."
Chu Lu thought: Such an ordinary name, it’s not a repeated word, and it doesn’t feel like the heroine...
