After rebirth, tear the black-hearted husband to pieces and step on the evil mother-in-law
Chapter 186 Shocking Secrets (Part )
Prince An brought Lin Luoling to the interrogation room at the deepest part of the dungeon. Inside the room was a huge rectangular wooden table. Prince An pulled Lin Luoling to sit on the wide chair behind the wooden table. At Gu Shun's command, two guards came in carrying the two women from Nanxiang Country.
The two women were tied to the black iron pillar, their eyes full of panic, and they said:
"I have said everything I was told to say, and it is not an exaggeration."
"I have told you everything I know. Please stop torturing me and spare my life. If you need me to do anything, just tell me. I will definitely do it."
……
Before the two women finished speaking, Prince An suddenly remembered the records in ancient books about the country of Nanxiang eating men, so he raised his eyebrows and asked.
Upon hearing this, the two women's faces suddenly turned pale.
One of the women hurriedly explained, "Sir, don't believe the rumors. Nanxiang has never eaten humans. It's just that Nanxiang is made up of women, not men. In order to continue their offspring, Nanxiang lets women of low status go out and seduce men, and then bring them back to Nanxiang to be enjoyed by the monarch, princess, and powerful nobles of Nanxiang."
The woman next to her continued, "Yes, yes, the rumor that the Nanxiang country practices cannibalism is not true. After entering the Nanxiang country, the men will die of emaciated bones within half a year. Therefore, in order to continue their offspring, the women of the Nanxiang country have no choice but to lock them up in the Pleasure Palace while they are still alive.
Men with excellent looks and figures are naturally dedicated to the monarch of Nanxiang Country for his exclusive enjoyment. The next best ones are enjoyed by the princesses in turn. The next best ones are locked up in the pleasure palace outside the palace, where the powerful and nobles come one after another. Only the worst men are given to women of humble status like us."
After saying this, the woman paused, and continued hesitantly: "It's just... it's just that in the past three to five hundred years, the number of men brought back from Nanxiang Country has become fewer and fewer, and the women in Nanxiang Country all want to get pregnant. This... um... the man brought back died within a month..."
Seeing that the woman bowed her head and dared not continue, Prince An asked, "So, the women of Nanxiang Country sucked the men dry in less than a month? Then, how did you deal with the bodies?"
The woman replied, "There are several streams in Nanxiang. There are fish in the streams. The bodies...are thrown into the streams. After the fish eat them clean, they grind the remaining bones into powder and use them as fertilizer for the flowers."
The woman next to her added, "Don't get me wrong, sir. Not only men, but also women from Nanxiang Country will be thrown into the river to be eaten by fish after they die. The remaining bones will also be ground into powder and used as fertilizer for flowers. The flowers in Nanxiang Country will bloom only after they eat the bone powder."
"It will only bloom if it eats bone meal?" Prince An raised his eyes and glared at them coldly.
When the two women first saw Prince An, they felt that this man was a romantic, handsome man with picturesque features and unparalleled beauty that they had not seen in decades. Their eyes burned and their noses bled and saliva dripped instantly. Such a man, let alone them, I am afraid that even the monarch of their Nanxiang country has never seen such a handsome man, right?
Prince An saw the two of them staring at each other and said "hmm" coldly.
After a long while, Gu Shun whipped the two women hard with the whip. The sudden pain brought them back to their senses.
Gu Shun frowned and said, "My master asked you a question, why don't you answer it quickly?"
The two women had no idea what Prince An had just asked, so they asked in bewilderment, "What did you ask, young master?"
Gu Shun repeated it, and the two women finally told him the whole story.
It turned out that Nanxiang Country was surrounded by mountains and shrouded in clouds and mist, and the light of the sun and moon could not be seen all day long.
The men of Nanxiang who first fled here were buried under flowers, plants and trees after their death, and they began to bloom the next day.
It is said that a man accidentally fell into a stream while fishing and was eaten by fish. People nearby saw with their own eyes that after the fish ate the man who fell into the water, the fish instantly grew a lot bigger.
Extremely surprised, he fished up the fish and discovered that the fish, after eating the man's food, had grown more than twice as large and was extremely plump and delicious.
Therefore, the Nanxiang Kingdom would throw the dead into the stream to be eaten by fish, and the remaining bones would be ground into powder and sprinkled among the exotic flowers and plants.
After hearing this, King An asked, "Is the Three-Day Soul-Calling Flower a plant native to your Nanxiang Kingdom?"
When the two women heard the name, they looked at each other and asked, "Sir, how did you know about this flower?"
Prince An raised his eyebrows, and one of the women said, "The Three-Day Soul-Binding Technique is only available in the Nanxiang Kingdom, but it is not something that people of our status can get at will."
The woman next to her nodded and said, "We are both humble servants of the Ministry of Materials."
King An asked the two women from Nanxiang Kingdom what official position the Wusi held in Nanxiang Kingdom.
The two women from Nanxiang Kingdom gave a general explanation of the monarch and official positions of Nanxiang Kingdom. The current monarch of Nanxiang Kingdom is called Nan Zihuan, who is about 130 to 140 years old and has five daughters. Nan Qiuzhi is Nan Zihuan's youngest daughter, and Nan Zihuan loves Nan Qiuzhi the most.
Since a woman became the monarch of Nanxiang Kingdom, a rule was established that only the eldest princess of Nanxiang Kingdom could inherit the throne.
Nan Zihuan's other three daughters each had their own duties, but the little princess Nan Qiuzhi was spoiled. She was favored by the monarch above and loved by her elder sisters below. She was naughty and active since she was a child. One day, she secretly followed the maids who were sent out of Nanxiang Kingdom by the Siwu Bureau and left Nanxiang Kingdom.
It is said that Nan Zihuan was furious about this incident and reprimanded her daughters. She sent people out of Nanxiang Kingdom many times to look for Nan Qiuzhi's whereabouts. She found out that Nan Qiuzhi was in the capital of Tianqi Kingdom and was married. So she ordered them to protect Nan Qiuzhi secretly and obey Nan Qiuzhi's orders.
Prince An frowned and asked, "Nan Qiuzhi is in the capital? Who did she marry?"
The two women from Nanxiang Kingdom shook their heads and said, "We are of low status. Although we are in the capital, we have never seen Princess Nanqiuzhi. Princess Nanqiuzhi will send her personal servants to tell us to do things. How dare we ask about the princess's affairs?"
King An asked, "How many people are there in Nanxiang?"
One of the women from Nanxiang answered, "About 20,000 people."
Prince An then asked, "How are the official positions in Nanxiang State set?"
Another woman from Nanxiang replied: "The monarch of Nanxiang has nearly 3,000 maids. These maids usually grow flowers and fish, and are also sent out to Nanxiang to do things. As for what they do, we don't know."
The woman paused and continued, "The eldest princess of Nanxiang Kingdom holds military power and has more than 10,000 soldiers."
Then he listed the official positions of Nanxiang Kingdom one by one.
It turned out that the Nanxiang Kingdom had one army and three divisions.
The so-called "one army" is the princess's charm army. The three departments are now managed by Nan Zihuan's other three daughters, namely: the Production Supervision Department, the Pharmaceutical Preparation Department and the Supplies Department.
The Construction Supervision Office was responsible for building and repairing the monarch's palace and the houses where all the women in Nanxiang Kingdom lived.
The Pharmaceutical Bureau makes all flowers and herbs into spices, and the Three-Day Soul-Turning comes from the Pharmaceutical Bureau.
There are more than a hundred female officials under the Siwu Department, who are specifically responsible for seducing men to follow them back to Nanxiang Country.
Then there are Nan Zihuan’s sisters, who are in charge of the three “Palaces of Desire” outside the palace.
Prince An interrupted, "Nanxiang Kingdom is not at war, so why does the princess have the power of more than 10,000 soldiers?"
The women of Nanxiang replied, "How could the men who were lured back to Nanxiang stay there? They must have wanted to escape. Moreover, after experiencing the painful lesson of Nanxiang's near-destruction, they formed a female army after escaping here. At first, these female soldiers practiced martial arts and forged weapons, but now, apart from forging weapons, most of the time they are fishing."
"Fishing?" Gu Shun asked.
The woman from Nanxiang nodded and said, "After all, Nanxiang has not had any foreign enemies for so many years. As time goes by, the women's army of Nanxiang has no wars to fight.
Moreover, the women of Nanxiang Country cannot only eat flowers and plants. Every day, all the women of Nanxiang Country will be rewarded with a fish. However, those with high power and position will get fatter fish, while humble female servants like us will get smaller fish. "
Prince An's eyes were like frost and snow. He stared at the two women and sneered, "Haha... Since they have no war to fight and only fish for the women of Nanxiang Country every day, why do they still need to make weapons?"
The woman from Nanxiang Country dodged her gaze for a moment, then replied, "How can a humble maid like us know what you are asking? I think they made weapons to catch fish."
The woman from Nanxiang Country beside her quickly replied, "Yes, yes, sir, we will tell you everything we know."
"Really?" Prince An raised his eyebrows and asked in a disbelieving tone, "How old are you two?"
You don't know until you ask. Once you ask, you will be shocked. The two women in front of you are nearly seventy years old, but judging from their looks, they look like young girls of eighteen or nineteen years old.
Prince An was stunned for a moment, and after carefully examining the two of them, he slowly asked, "Do you know how old your Nanxiang country's little princess Nan Qiuzhi is now?"
The two women looked at each other, as if trying to estimate how old Nan Qiuzhi was. After a moment, they replied, "The little princess is already over fifty years old."
Lin Luoling whispered in Prince An's ear, "Look at the way they answered, it's obvious that they have become accustomed to lying. Seven or eight out of ten sentences must be false. I guess they must know who the little princess of Nanxiang Kingdom married.
Why would Granny Sun obey the orders of Prince Rui and the Queen Mother for no reason? She must have something to do with them."
