Chapter 766: Full-level Boss Dressed As a Peasant Girl
Chapter 766: Poisoning and Suicide
Shu Yu raised her hand. "Stop, stop, stop. Don't overthink it. It's not that complicated. I really am unfortunate, inexplicably implicated and exiled here. I didn't intentionally come here to suffer."
Zhao Xi couldn't help but chuckle. He suddenly felt a bit sympathetic towards Shu Yu.
Cheng Dong turned his head and saw another man coming out of the room on the right.
He didn't recognize this person, but since Young Master Meng didn't avoid their presence, their relationship must be excellent.
Cheng Dong pursed his lips. He had one final question, "Did prefect Cheng discover my identity because of you?"
"Yes." Meng Yunzheng felt he should let him die with a clear understanding. It was quite pitiful for his good brother to die without knowing why. "I thought prefect Cheng would dispose of you, but I didn't expect you to escape."
"Hmph." Cheng Dong sneered. "In the end, I still fell into your hands?"
He looked at Shu Yu. "I never expected to end up in your hands."
Shu Yu didn't expect it either. "But you have to believe me, this was really an accident. I was just going out of the city to visit an old acquaintance. If it weren't for you stopping my cart, you might have actually escaped."
Cheng Dong closed his eyes. Indeed, he had been careless.
With his doubts resolved, Cheng Dong had no intention of continuing to entangle with them. He sneered and asked Meng Yunzheng, "So, now that you've captured me, what do you want to learn from me? Do you think I will talk? "
He had noticed that the poison hidden in his mouth had been taken away, but it didn't matter. No matter what torture they used on him, he wouldn't speak.
Seeing his resigned expression, Meng Yunzheng couldn't help but ask Shu Yu, "Do you have any questions for him?"
"I don't, do you?" Shu Yu asked.
Meng Yunzheng thought for a moment. "The only thing I wanted to know was the content of that letter, but I don't think he would tell us. Even if he did, it might not be the truth. As for other things, he has been in this place of exile for many years and probably doesn't know more than I do. It's better not to ask."
Cheng Dong suddenly opened his eyes, looking at him in disbelief.
Shu Yu nodded. "Makes sense."
Zhao Xi looked left and right, filled with question marks. "If there's nothing to ask, then why did you bring him back?"
Shu Yu pondered for a moment. "Originally, I intended to give him directly to Master Qi. But then I thought, since he is an old acquaintance of yours, you should be happy to meet him, right?"
Meng Yunzheng nodded. "I'm actually in a good mood."
Shu Yu knew that Meng Yunzheng despised Gong Qiu, so he must be delighted to see Gong Qiu's trusted subordinate suffer and be tormented.
That was her original intention in giving the gift.
Shu Yu felt relieved. Seeing that it was getting late, she clapped her hands and said, "Then I'll go and deliver him to Master Qi now?"
"Good."
Cheng Dong had completely lost track of what these two people were thinking.
He had prepared himself to withstand all kinds of torture and interrogation, but they didn't intend to ask anything at all?
What kind of situation was this?
Shu Yu took out a handkerchief from her
sleeve and handed it to Meng Yunzheng. "This is the poison I found in his mouth."
Meng Yunzheng looked at it with some disgust, then approached Cheng Dong with the handkerchief.
Cheng Dong widened his eyes. "What are you trying to do?"
"Since you have poison in your mouth, it must be for the purpose of not betraying your master and using it to commit suicide at a critical moment. Now, I will grant your wish," Meng Yunzheng said.
