Duke Jing's younger sister

Chapter 119 Learning the truth

Everyone looked in the direction of the voice and saw a wealthy young man dressed in blue.

She is fair and clean, and more delicate than a girl.

The man who was accused was kneeling on the ground, looking very disheveled as he had not had a good rest the night before.

He raised his eyes and carefully looked at the young man in front of him, hoping that he would confess everything as soon as possible and make amends.

Let this young master be more merciful to his men.

After all, all his family members fell into the hands of others.

Luo Zhi walked forward, picked up the man like a chicken and brought him in front of Shen Li, threw him onto the hay-covered ground, and casually took the cloth ball out of his mouth.

"My young master has something to ask you, you'd better tell the truth!"

Luo Zhiyang raised the sharp dagger in her hand, and the cold blade pressed against the man's cheek, scaring the man so much that he dared not breathe.

"Otherwise, do you know what will happen?"

"Yes, yes, I know. I will tell you everything I know. I hope you can spare my life!"

He lay on the ground, still nodding his head, like a worm wriggling on the ground.

Shen Li's eyes were calm, and her heart was not disturbed by his wailing and begging.

When Zi Yuan was in front of them in the past, did she ever beg them to let her go?

Did they ever show any mercy to her at that time?

"What's your name?" Shen Li deliberately lowered his voice and asked coldly.

Luo Zhi grabbed the man's collar and pulled him up, making him kneel in front of Shen Li.

The man listened to the question and leaned forward and said, "Sir, my name is Zhu Yang."

Pigs and sheep?

Shen Li snorted in his heart, it would be better to call them pigs and dogs!

"Let me ask you, what happened in Wanhua Tower that night?"

The man was a little hesitant. He could tell at first glance that the fair and handsome young man in front of him was a girl.

People from above had come to reprimand him, so how could he dare to tell the truth so easily?

"It's just... a thing between a man and a woman. The woman must have been given an aphrodisiac from Wanhua Tower, so..."

There is no need to say more about the rest, it is self-evident.

Shen Li's face turned pale. "Do you know her name? Who is her family?"

"I don't know. We drank a lot that night. I don't know who took the lead, but we all went into the room. When we entered, the woman was already unconscious and had no clothes on. She came all over us... We were all normal men. Who could control themselves?"

Seeing her face becoming increasingly grim, the man's voice became increasingly quiet, "Actually, we... don't have to choose her alone..."

"I heard that she was injured!"

Shen Li gritted her teeth and said, "Can't you see it?"

Zhu Yangyu choked up. Of course he saw it, but the woman had injuries on her back that looked like whip marks.

Besides, they were all drunk that night, or maybe these men had been drugged.

Anyway, when they thought about it afterwards, they all felt it was ridiculous.

What is Wanhua Tower? It is the largest brothel in Jiangdu City and the place with the most women.

They came here, of course, to have some fun.

Why are more than a dozen people acting like crazy?

But it's a disaster for a girl.

You know, this can kill people.

They came here to have fun and never thought of killing anyone.

Seeing the man remained silent, Shen Li sneered, "Do you know who brought her to Wanhua Tower?"

"I don't know. We have been drinking in Wanhua Tower since the afternoon."

It seems that the person who brought Ziyuan to Wanhua Tower must be the one wearing the black jade cuckoo pendant.

Shen Li: "That night there was a man in the room with a black jade pendant on his body. Do you know who that man was?"

The man was silent for a moment, then replied, "The one who knows is the third son of the Duke of Liang's family, named Liang Yangrong."

Shen Li was stunned. Liang Yangrong?

She once secretly wondered if it was him.

I didn't expect it was really him?

Zi Yuan must have been drugged that night, and she made a mistake while she was unconscious, and mistook the lucky rat black jade pendant for a cuckoo pendant.

So, why did he want to harm Ziyuan?

She confirmed that before the polo match, she and Liang Yangrong had no interaction at all, let alone celebrating a festival together.

Why did he torture Ziyuan and force her to tell him about her relationship with Shen Beiqi?

Shen Li clenched her fists and asked coldly, "Are you familiar with him? Do you know why he abducted that woman to Wanhua Tower?"

Zhu Yang shook his head. "Before we entered the room, we had no idea that Lord Liang would be there. Although we have a little money in our families, the threshold for Duke Liang is so high. How could he look down on us and be friends with us?"

Thinking back on it now, Zhu Yang felt extremely hateful.

I think they must have been fooled. If they knew that the girl was from the Duke Jingguo's Mansion, they would not dare to touch her, let alone a maid, even if she was a dog!

"Sir, what I said is absolutely true. I hope you will forgive me and spare my life!"

Zhu Yang kept lowering his head. Luo Zhi noticed that a man was struggling desperately in the corner and seemed to have something to say, so she stepped forward and pulled him over.

The cloth ball was removed from the man's mouth. He took two deep breaths and then said hurriedly, "Master, I know why Master Liang wanted to bring that maid here."

Now, everyone in this house, young and old, is in the hands of Duke Jing.

The Duke of Jingguo was known for his cruelty in the north, and was feared by everyone.

They don't want to bring disaster to the whole family because of their momentary absurdity.

But now that the mistake has been made, I can only hope that this young master can show mercy and not hurt their relatives.

Luo Zhi kicked him hard, "You know what I mean, why don't you just say it now? Why are you dithering?"

The man was hit hard, but he didn't dare to show any displeasure. He knelt down again and spoke,

"Sir, Mr. Liang has been in love with Prime Minister Han's daughter for several years, but she has never looked at him straight in the eye. This time, it was Miss Han who asked Mr. Liang to inquire about it."

The dark pupils suddenly shrank, and Shen Li looked at the man in disbelief.

"You mean, he took Han Yunning's instructions to take people to Wanhua Tower?"

If it was really Han Yunning, then it would explain why Liang Yangrong tortured her and forced her to tell the story between her and Shen Beiqi.

"exactly!"

The man continued, "Mr. Liang San brought her here with the intention of extracting some information from the maid, but he didn't expect that the maid would be very tight-lipped and refused to tell the truth no matter what. This angered Mr. Liang San, and he took her to Wanhua Tower..."
