Emperor Beiling issued a death order, requiring him to eliminate all remnants of the Shuoyue Sect within one month, otherwise, the entire Nan family would be punished.

When Nan Jingxing was feeling worried, the intelligence from His Royal Highness Prince Gong was like timely rain, helping him out of his urgent need. Otherwise, he alone would not be able to complete this difficult task in such a short time.

"My prince said that it would be great if we could help General Nan."

Faced with the courtesy of the great Major General, Tieyi naturally had to return the courtesy: "Major General, His Highness has a small request, please fulfill it."

"Guard Tayun, please speak." Xiao Zhan had helped him so much, so naturally he had to give something in return.

It's just a small request. As long as it is within his ability, he will do his best.

"It's not a big deal, Major General. You just need to arrest these people from the Shuoyue Sect and report back to your superiors. However, I hope you can hand over the other group of rebels who colluded with the Shuoyue Sect to His Highness for handling.

When we came here just now, the Major General also saw that this group of people had been following behind your Highness' carriage. If your Highness had not been smart enough to get rid of them, we don't know what they would have done to your Highness. For the sake of safety, your Highness wants to keep them and interrogate them in detail. "

Tieyi told Nan Jingxing exactly what Jiang Xue had taught him.

The argument was clear and well-reasoned, so Nan Jingxing agreed without hesitation.

He only took away those who pretended to be spies from the Shuoyue Sect, and left the group of people who had just followed the palace's carriage to Tieyi.

"Your Highness, Princess, what should we do with these people?"

Xiaochun, Fudong, Qingfeng and Tieyi occupied the four directions of east, south, west and north respectively and surrounded the group of people.

Not far away, a large water tank that appeared out of nowhere stood quietly.

At Qing Feng's invitation, Jiang Xue and Xiao Zhan slowly emerged from the darkness.

Looking at the group of fish trapped in the fishing net, Jiang Xue said, "Clean them up, put them in the water tank, and send them to their boss as a belated welcome gift from our Prince Gong Mansion to His Royal Highness Prince Huan."

She just wanted to let Jun Li and His Royal Highness Prince Huan know that their Prince Gong Mansion was not to be bullied.

"Your Highnesses." As it approached the hour of Yin, the attendant in charge of gathering intelligence hurried back to Prince Huan's mansion.

As soon as he came back, Jun Li and Xiao Huan's eyes were focused on him at the same time.

"What's the situation?" Xiao Huan hid his hands in his wide sleeves and rested his elbows on the table on the right.

"Your Highness, our people have been captured."

The attendant lowered his head and answered in a low voice, his eyes fixed on the ground, not daring to look directly at the two princes in front of him.

"Caught? It seems the progress is quite smooth." Jun Li raised the corner of his mouth, thinking that Xiao Zhan was caught. He was so proud of himself that he didn't notice anything strange about his servant.

"Since everything is going well, why are you hesitating so much?"

Seeing that the servant was reluctant to look up, Xiao Huan narrowed his eyes and felt something was wrong.

He pointed at the attendant and his voice came faintly.

The cold aura emanating from His Royal Highness Prince Huan makes people shudder.

The servant was glared at by him, trembling all over, and immediately knelt on the ground: "Your Highness, calm down, yes, it's our people who have been captured!"

"What did you say?"

This unexpected outcome was like a bucket of cold water, extinguishing all of Jun Li's pride.

He suddenly stood up and slammed his palm on the table with such force that a crack appeared on the tabletop.

Compared to Xiao Huan, Jun Li's shock was much more obvious. Xiao Huan simply changed his sitting position to a more comfortable one, leaning back on the chair, his eyes icy as he stared at the trembling attendant on the ground: "Anything else you haven't said?"

Seeing how scared this kid was, Xiao Huan knew that there must be more explosive news that had not been revealed.

"Also... the group of people arranged by His Royal Highness Prince Rui were taken back by General Nan to report. Also, someone from Prince Gong's Mansion sent a large water jar, saying that it was... that it was a gift for His Royal Highness Prince Huan to return to Beijing..."

The servant was shaking as he spoke. The thing in the water tank was so creepy that he couldn't help feeling nauseous when he thought of that horrific scene.

"Drag him out, it's disgusting to watch."

Xiao Huan had a look of disgust on his face as he watched the servant vomiting all over the ground. He quickly covered his nose with his sleeve and ordered the boy to be chopped into pieces, stuffed with all the disgusting stuff into his stomach, and then thrown to the watchdog in the mansion as a snack.

He was born with a mysophobia and couldn't stand dirt and mess.

In the past, if anyone accidentally spat on the ground in the dungeon, he would be skinned alive and his tendons pulled out, then hung out to dry in the cell.

Now that it's out, its ruthlessness is even more intense than before.

Even the experienced Jun Li felt that this method was too extreme, not to mention the inexperienced servants around him, who were so frightened that their legs went limp and their souls flew away.

"You, go and bring me that water jar."

Xiao Huan pointed casually, and was frightened by the servant in front of him, unable to move. When he heard the order, he almost knelt down on the spot.

"Bring the water jar over here, and don't let me repeat it for the third time, or you'll be chopped up and fed to the dogs like him."

The words were neither fast nor slow, and the voice was neither loud nor soft, but with the brutal threat and the sinister eyes, he looked like a ghost crawling out of hell.

"Yes!" The servant dared not hesitate. He crawled to the door and used all his strength to pull the big water jar over.

"Your Highness... your servant... your servant has dragged the water jar... dragged it here." The palms of the hands dragging the jar had been rubbed by the rough rope, and blood had seeped into the knot.

Although his hands were burning with pain, the servant didn't even dare to make a sound and stood obediently beside the water tank.

"Yes." Xiao Huan then stood up, his movements lazy and devilish: "Jun Li, you come and open the tank."

This commanding tone made Jun Li feel extremely uncomfortable, but he would not show it easily in front of Xiao Huan.

He reached out and opened the lid of the water jar, and a strong smell of blood and decay rushed into his head.

The two of them took a closer look at the water tank, and wow! It turned out to be full of the heads of secret agents sent to Prince Gong's Mansion as spies.

Twelve in total, not one more, not one less! They were all cut and neatly stacked in the water jar.

The more Jun Li looked at the water jar, the more familiar it looked. Thinking carefully, wasn't this the same one that he had sent to the gate of the mansion with a head when he intercepted Jiang Xue in Nanyuan before? That time, he became a joke in Yujing City.

"Jiang Xue!"

Jun Li gritted his teeth, the embarrassing scene flashed in his mind again, and could not be shaken off.

"Hehehe, hahahaha!"

In contrast to Jun Li's rage, Xiao Huan endured the stench and carefully checked every human head in the water tank. Then, he laughed out loud with a hint of madness in his laughter.

His pupils narrowed slightly because of laughing, and became enlarged. The look in his eyes made people feel cold in their hearts.
