"Chi Hanfeng, don't let your team leave yet.”
Just as all the Brocade Guards were heading out of the city toward Taiqing Temple, Chen Beijiang stopped Chi Hanfeng.
Su Ming could not help but become stunned.
Shouldn't they be rushing to Taiqing Temple to find the Third Princess?
If he could find the Third Princess, it would be a great merit.
Sun Yin and Tang Song watched as the entire square became empty.
Then, Su Ming and the ten of them followed Chen Beijiang into the North Garrison Office.
"Lord Chen, where are we going?”
Chi Hanfeng asked.
The nine Embroidered Uniform Guards under him were also puzzled.
"This is the direction to Jin Prison."
Su Ming cast a glance in that direction and thought to himself.
Jin Prison was the place where the Northern Town Administrative Office held prisoners.
Almost none of the people who entered this place walked out unscathed.
Su Ming might have never entered it before, but there were quite a few rumors about it.
Many officials who committed crimes ended up in Jin Prison. After they came out, they were directly sent to be beheaded.
Even if he was released in the end, he had already shed a layer of skin.
"I'm looking for someone."
"If he's willing to speak," Chen Beijiang said slowly.”
Arriving at the entrance of Jin Prison, Chen Beijiang looked around and said,""Chi Hanfeng and Su Ming, follow me. The rest of you, wait outside.”
When the others heard this, they were all stunned.
However, they also knew that Su Ming had been an orphan since he was young, and his father was Chen Beijiang's comrade.
Su Ming, who had been taken care of by Chen Beijiang since he was young, could naturally be considered Chen Beijiang's trusted aide.
As the few of them watched, Su Ming and Chi Hanfeng followed Chen Beijiang into Jin Prison.
"Lord Chen."
Upon entering Jin Prison, the guards immediately stood up and greeted him.
"I am looking for Gu Jingming."
Chen Beijiang said slowly.
"Yes."
The guard hurriedly took the key and led the three of them to the room where Gu Jingming was imprisoned.
In the dim corridor, the three of them followed the guards and came to a room filled with torture instruments.
A man covered in blood and dirt was tied to a cross stake.
"Milord, we've arrived."
The guard said respectfully.
In the Northern Military District, the Thousand Households had close to a hundred Brocade Guards under him. He could be considered a figure with real power.
"He is Gu Jingming?"
Chen Beijiang frowned and said expressionlessly,""Didn't I already instruct you to take good care of him and not let him suffer any damage?”
"You're half-dead now. Do you not care about my words?”
"Sir, this lowly one doesn't know either.”
Seeing Chen Beijiang's anger, the guard panicked and quickly said,""It might have been done by someone from another class. I promise that I will definitely inform them tonight and treat them well.”
In Jin Prison, the guards had great authority.
Most of the prisoners were officials.
If he was locked up in Jin Prison for corruption, it meant that he was a fat fish.
These officials were very cunning and would divide their silver into several places to hide.
When they were locked up in Jin Prison and their property was confiscated, it was inevitable that there would be a few places where they hid their silver that no one knew about.
The guards in Jin Prison would naturally use this method to interrogate him about the whereabouts of the silver.
Such things were common in Jin Prison, and the people above turned a blind eye to it.
However, if they knew that the Thousand Households had given strict orders and still dared to extract their bones and marrow, then these guards would very likely be skinned.
"What's your name?"
Chen Beijiang glanced at the guard and said lightly.
"Milord, I am Xu Lin."
"Xu Lin, right? This official will remember you. If he still looks like this the next time you come in, you can take off your skin.”
"Yes, my lord."
Xu Lin hurriedly said as cold sweat dripped down his forehead.
He understood that this was Chen Beijiang's warning.
Even though he knew that he had given orders, Gu Jingming, who had been imprisoned, still looked like this. Chen Beijiang was obviously really angry.
"You may leave."
Chen Beijiang waved his hand, signaling him to leave.
Yes.
After Xu Lin left, Chen Beijiang walked up to Gu Jingming and said slowly,""I didn't expect that they would torture you under my orders.”
"Chen Beijiang, put away your face.”
" What?" Gu Jingming opened his eyes and sneered," If you didn't need my help, you might never have stepped into this place, right?”
"Not bad."
" I'm busy every day," Chen Beijiang said lightly." How could I have the time to come to Jin Prison to chat with you?"”
"I came here today to ask you to help me find someone. As long as you can help me find her, I will secretly help your wife and children.”
Su Ming and Chi Hanfeng were both stunned.
Who was this guy imprisoned in Jin Prison?
"Chen Beijiang, I'm afraid you're just saying that, right?”
"I won't believe your nonsense anymore." Gu Jingming sneered.”
"Besides, you have no idea where my wife and children are.”
"Don't you know?"
Chen Beijiang chuckled and said slowly,""Black Iron City, Apricot Blossom Street, Gu Yao, five years old."
Gu Jingming's expression changed when he heard this. He said in a deep voice,""Chen Beijiang, I'm warning you. If you dare to touch them, I won't let you off even if I become a ghost!”
"I wasn't afraid when you were a human, but would I be afraid when you were a ghost?”
"You brought this upon yourself," Chen Beijiang said coldly.”
"Do you really think that the intelligence network of the North Town Bureau is just for show?”
"A month after you were captured, the intelligence network of the North Town Administrative Office had already collected the whereabouts of your wife and children.”
"Today's matter is rather urgent, so I came to find you.”
"If you knew better, you would have chosen to cooperate with me.”
"Otherwise, do you believe that I will sell your daughter to the Education Bureau to receive customers?”
Under Chen Beijiang's threat, Gu Jingming finally lowered his arrogant head.
"Who are you looking for?" he asked slowly.
"Third Princess Ji Renzi!"
