Chapter 433 Traitor
Chapter 433 Traitor
Just now, the conversation between the two people reached Mu Sixiu's ears without reservation. He looked gloomy and waved his hand. Several jailers immediately stepped forward and quickly pushed open the door of the women's cell next door, shouting in unison: "Everyone get out!"
This order was like a death warrant, and several jailers rushed towards the group of poor women without mercy. They stretched out their strong arms, grabbed the women tightly like iron pliers, and then pushed them out of the cell regardless of their care.
How could these women give in? They cried bitterly, screamed their husbands' names, and refused to move a step.
"Brother, brother!" Qiangzi's face was filled with fear and despair. He held onto the iron pillar of the prison door with both hands and pleaded in a trembling voice, "Brother, this is my wife. She is pregnant with my own child! Since you will be the father of the child in the future, please be kind and don't hurt her!"
"Get out of the way!" The jailer's cold words seemed to freeze the air. He didn't even give him a spare glance.
"Boss, can you think of a solution quickly?" Qiangzi was as anxious as an ant on a hot pan, pacing around in circles in the small, dark cell.
Ling Xiao seemed particularly calm and composed. He lay leisurely in the musty and damp haystack with his eyes slightly closed. "Don't worry, Qiangzi. The Zhan Palace won't kill them easily. At most, they will just let them do some heavy work."
Mu Sixiu in the dark smiled slightly, turned and left.
The jailer took the women to the interrogation room. Mu Sixiu interrogated them seriously without torturing them. However, looking at the torture instruments in the interrogation room, they were so scared that their hands and feet became weak. They answered whatever was asked and confessed everything honestly.
"Since you are also victims, you have some feelings for them, but they are bandits after all. This commander will give you a way out. After you get out, find a husband and live a good life. Take you away!" After saying this, Mu Sixiu turned around and walked out, not caring what the woman begged.
In this way, seven women were taken out of Prince Zhan's Palace. None of them knew what to do. Finally, after discussion, they each went to the capital to find some rough work to do while waiting for their husbands. Soon, all the women gathered at the door of Prince Zhan's Palace left.
In the prison...
The jailer walked slowly with heavy steps, holding a plate of steaming white flour buns and a few bowls of water. He placed the food on a worn wooden table in the cell with an expressionless face, then turned and left without saying a word, as if these prisoners were insignificant to him.
The people in the cell were already starving, and when they saw the food, they couldn't help but flash a glimmer of desire in their eyes. They gathered around and reached out to grab the steamed buns and water. However, despite being extremely hungry, they did not rush to grab the food, but thought of Ling Xiao first.
So, everyone carefully handed a steamed bun and a bowl of water to their leader Ling Xiao. Then, everyone began to distribute the remaining food in an orderly manner to ensure that everyone could get a portion. Although this process was simple, it was full of care and concern for each other.
When everyone got their portion of food, they did not wolf it down immediately. Instead, they each found a relatively quiet corner and sat down to eat slowly.
At the same time, the women who were released were walking hurriedly along the street. Mu Sixiu and An followed them quietly all the way, not daring to relax at all.
Just as Ling Xiao had guessed before, if the prince really wanted to take their lives, he would never go to the trouble of bringing them to Prince Zhan's Mansion to take action. There must be a mystery behind this.
After the observation and analysis just now, Mu Sixiu cast his suspicious eyes on the three women. The first one was the woman who had just been complaining to Ling Xiao. Her indignant expression made people feel a little suspicious;
The second is the woman who claimed that she would stay with her husband no matter life or death. She seemed affectionate, but her eyes were actually flickering.
The third suspect is the old man who separated from everyone else in the capital and went alone to look for his daughter.
In order to further investigate the truth, Mu Sixiu decided to personally follow the woman named Feng'er, and at the same time arranged for his deputy to keep a close eye on the woman named Xing'er.
In addition, he also dispatched several agile guards to sneak into the capital and search for the old man who was looking for his daughter, and asked them to report to him immediately if they found any clues.
Sure enough, Feng'er came to the Shennv Hotpot Restaurant, seemingly looking for something. At this time, a man walked out of the hotpot restaurant, and Feng'er followed him all the way to a remote alley.
"It's done. Where's my money and house?" Feng'er said.
"Silver, village? Come, I'll take you there." said the man.
Seeing this, Mu Sixiu in the dark breathed a sigh of relief. As expected, just as he was about to step forward to catch someone, he saw that the woman named Feng'er had already fallen in a pool of blood...
