Of course, it was torture
After leaving the Yin and Yang Palace.
Gu Hao and Qin Qiong headed to the Ministry of Justice's prison together.
"General Qin, what's going on?" Gu Hao asked in confusion. I don't even know that kid. Why would he stick to me?”
This mission felt strange.
"There's no need to care about the young people's personal disputes.”
Qin Qiong chuckled.
He didn't really care.
Back then, before Yuchi Gong surrendered to Tang, he was extremely arrogant.
After defeating a few Tang generals, he even thought that he was the best in the world.
In the end, when he met him, Qin Qiong, didn't he still shrink into a bear!
Gu Hao sighed and said," I still feel a little wronged. That kid must be out of his mind. He was the one who sent someone to steal my crystal cup. Why is he blaming me now?"”
"Isn't this proof that you're more outstanding than him?" Qin Qiong smiled and raised his eyebrows.”
Gu Hao paused.
Thinking of it this way…it was indeed much more comfortable.
When they arrived outside the prison, Gu Hao stopped and asked expectantly,""Can torture be used?"
"His Majesty has already promised Xiao Yu that he won't touch him." Qin Qiong shook his head and said in a low voice.”
Gu Hao curled his lips.
He didn't really understand what State Duke Song was thinking.
He was the one who betrayed her without hesitation, but now he had to protect her!
Then, under Qin Qiong's instructions, Gu Hao met the Turkic spy, Yang Zhengdao, alone.
He is the grandson of Emperor Yang Guang of Sui Dynasty.
Gu Hao sat on a torture bench and looked at Yang Zhengdao through the wooden prison.
Not as handsome as him!
Not as tall as him!
The prison uniform was not as good looking as his official uniform!
No wonder he was jealous.
"Young Master Yang, you're not particular." Gu Hao smiled.”
While Gu Hao was sizing up Yang Zhengdao, Yang Zhengdao, who was sitting on the cell bed, was also sizing up Gu Hao.
It was this fellow who had caused him to suffer a crushing defeat.
He really couldn't accept it at all!
Hearing Gu Hao's words, Yang Zhengdao sneered and said,""Looks like they can't bear to kill you."
"The person who betrayed you was clearly Xiao Yu, but why am I the person you hate the most?”Gu Hao asked.
He was puzzled.
As far as he knew, after Yang Zhengdao went to look for Xiao Yu, the Duke of Song, Xiao Yu directly sold Yang Zhengdao out.
Under such circumstances, the person Yang Zhengdao hated the most was not Gu Hao.
"How can you compare to Xiao Yu?" Yang Zhengdao asked lightly. He was the current Duke and had a close relationship with Li Yuan. He had already supported Li Shimin when he was still the King of Qin.”
Gu Hao was enlightened.
It wasn't that he didn't hate Xiao Yu, but that he knew he wasn't powerful enough to move Xiao Yu.
"So you're after me? You want to drag me along even before you die?"
Gu Hao laughed in anger.
"I won't die." Yang Zhengdao shook his head.
Although Xiao Yu betrayed me, his words are still worth believing.
He said that he would do his best to keep me alive.”
"Oh?" Gu Hao narrowed his eyes." You mean you won't die, but I might not?”
"Do you know what Li Shi Min wants the most?”Yang Zhengdao looked at Gu Hao and asked with a faint smile.
Gu Hao frowned and pondered. After a while, he said,"
"Defeat the Turks!"
"This is one of his wishes, but it's not what he wants the most." Yang Zhengdao shook his head and said.”
"The Holy Decree is unpredictable.”
Gu Hao said lightly.
He was not a worm in Li Er's stomach. How could he know what Li Er really wanted?
"Tsk, I'm really unwilling to lose to you.”
Yang Zhengdao looked at Gu Hao, his voice sounding desolate.
He was really unwilling.
Gu Hao smiled. He thought for a moment, and his eyes flashed."You know what? Enemies who have been defeated by me will never be seen as my opponents again. I will give you time to catch up until you are far away.”
Yang Zhengdao suddenly raised his head and looked at Gu Hao with a sinister look.
"In front of me, you are a loser, a complete loser.”
Gu Hao said lightly.
"You will die, and you will die horribly!" Yang Zhengdao said coldly.
"Maybe you really have some bargaining chips, but you shouldn't have asked me to interrogate you.”Gu Hao said.
"Are you trying to trick me?" Yang Zhengdao sneered.”
"Is that important?" Gu Hao shrugged. Anyway, you have to say it anyway. Otherwise, why did you call me here?”
Yang Zhengdao frowned and looked deeply at Gu Hao.
" Just as you said," Gu Hao said." With the Duke of Song, Xiao Yu, as a guarantor, you won't die. Based on my understanding of His Majesty, he might even give you an official position in order to win over the possible ex-Sui elders.
However, the prerequisite for all of this is that you have to cooperate well.”
"Now, things are getting interesting." The corner of Yang Zhengdao's mouth twitched.
"Do you know why you lost this time?" Gu Hao smiled and continued.”
"I underestimated you." Yang Zhengdao was silent for a long time.”
"I'm not asking about your plan," Gu Hao shook his head and said,"I'm asking about yourself.”
"What do you mean?" Yang Zhengdao frowned and asked.
"A gentleman doesn't stand under a dangerous wall. You're too confident." Gu Hao said.
If I'm not wrong, you came to Xiao Yu because you wanted to attend the bonfire banquet last night.
Even if I couldn't make the crystal cup, the bonfire banquet last night would still be held because I knew that the Turkic spy who planned the shattering of the crystal cup would definitely send someone to investigate!
I just didn't expect to catch you directly.
In fact, even if Xiao Yu didn't betray you, you wouldn't be able to escape!”
Yang Zhengdao's face was extremely gloomy.
He regretted it the moment the bonfire banquet started last night.
He was the only young man at the banquet, so there must be a lot of people paying attention to him.
"You should remember this lesson and never do it again.”Gu Hao said.
"Heh, are you concerned about me?" Yang Zhengdao sneered.
"Can't I?" Gu Hao chuckled and raised his eyebrows.”
The corner of Yang Zhengdao's mouth curled into a mocking smile.
"You're really…young." Gu Hao shook his head, looked at Yang Zhengdao, and said," Your surname is Yang, and you're the grandson of Yang Guang, Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty. You must have great ambitions.”
Yang Zhengdao sneered and looked at Gu Hao without saying anything.
Gu Hao didn't mind and continued," To do great things, you need to have a big picture. One needed to consider a problem from multiple perspectives.
Seeing your confused look, I'll give you two examples.
You should know Yuchi Gong and Wei Zheng, right?”
Yang Zhengdao snorted noncommittally.
Yuchi Gong and Wei Zheng were both people of high status in the Great Tang, so he naturally knew them very well.
"Back when His Majesty was still the King of Qin, he was almost beaten to death by Yuchi Gong," said Gu Hao.
But after General Qin Qiong captured Yuchi Gong, what did His Majesty do?
To vent his personal anger, he cut Yuchi Gong with a knife?
Most people would probably do this.
But what did His Majesty do? Not only did he not kill Yuchi Gong, he even treated him as one of his most trusted generals.
What was this called?
This was called having the capacity to accommodate people and knowing how to use them well, not limited to personal grudges.”
"Li Shi Min is indeed stronger than the average person in this aspect." Yang Zheng Dao frowned and said lightly.”
"Let's talk about Wei Zheng." Gu Hao continued," According to the rumors, when Wei Zheng was helping the hidden crown prince, Li Jiancheng, he suggested several times that Li Jiancheng make the first move and kill the current Emperor first.
In the end, Li Jiancheng was indecisive and lost the opportunity. Instead, he was beheaded by the current Emperor.
When ordinary people dealt with Wei Zheng, most of them would directly cut him down. The more ruthless ones would even execute his entire family.
However, not only did His Majesty not kill Wei Zheng, but he also entrusted him with an important task.
Wei Zheng's situation was different from Yuchi Gong's.
When conquering the world, every brave general was the most important, so it was understandable that Yuchi Gong was not killed.
When he dealt with Wei Zheng, the Emperor had already taken over the world. He also had Du Duan, Zhangsun Wuji, Tang Jian, Gao Shilian, Liu Zhenghui, and many other civil officials. It did not matter if Wei Zheng was there or not.
However, Your Majesty did not care about the past, left Wei Zheng behind, and entrusted him with an important task.
Do you know why?"
"Because of what?" Yang Zhengdao asked.
"Because it's useful," said Gu Hao.
If Wei Zheng was alive and became a high official, then the remaining forces of the Hidden Crown Prince would feel that there was hope in their lives and would not go to the extreme.
With Wei Zheng as a model, most of the hidden crown prince's remaining forces had surrendered.”
"What are you trying to say?" Yang Zhengdao frowned and asked coldly.”
Gu Hao smiled and said," It's still the same. Those who achieve great things should be tolerant and have a big picture."
If you really want to restore the Great Sui Dynasty, what you should do is not to think about how to kill me, but to rope me in.”
"Will you be roped in?" Yang Zhengdao sneered.”
"Do you think Wei Zheng would have been roped in when Li Jiancheng was still alive?" Gu Hao asked lightly.”
Yang Zhengdao frowned and stared at Gu Hao.
"There's still a prerequisite for doing great things.”
"Alive!" Gu Hao replied.
"Live well."
"Hidden Crown Prince Li Jiancheng failed because he risked his life and was beheaded.”
"Just like a chess player, regardless of the situation on the chessboard, if he wants to play chess as a chess player, he has to live well.”
Yang Zhengdao was silent. After a while, he slowly said,"I underestimated you before."
"An old man told me that if I want something from others, I have to give them what they need first," Gu Hao said with a smile.
Previously, you asked me if I was concerned about you.
The answer was yes.
You will only help me if I help you first.”
Yang Zhengdao looked at Gu Hao and suddenly sneered,"But after hearing so much from you, I want to kill you even more.”
“………”
Gu Hao secretly rolled his eyes.
If Qin Qiong had not said that torture was not allowed, why would he say so much?
The best way to interrogate a criminal was, of course, to use torture!
