Actually, the confession of Kuo Zhen had been thanks to Bo Sang Senior Shou barely deserved any credit for it
Bo Sang was froion and did not have an inherent reverence for the descendants of the Khan like the Norland people did In fact, he was very curious and wanted to find out how special these so-called “descendants of Gods” really were Kuo Zhen was a timely test subject to satisfy his curiosity
He was not good at intimidation, nor did he possess professional torture techniques His torturing method was simple and crude: he just punched the prisoner with both fists, starting fro to punch doards
Bo Sang kept beating the poor prisoner until he was tired, and then he continued with the beating after a short rest He even started to be fond of his new job, finding it safer anda sword
Kuo Zhen was tough His eyes and nose bled and his teeth were knocked out, but he did not beg for e in Norland some day He even described the tortureand Senior Shou Every time he described one method, he would add one sentence after it: “I know you, Bo Sang and Senior Shou”
Bo Sang was persistent He just kept going, ignoring the threats
So the beating went on When Bo Sang’s punching reached below Kuo Zhen’s waist, it was so painful that he could not help but swear out again , saying, “I will kill everyone in your family! I will…”
A seasoned torturer would know that this was the e of collapse, and those e did not know that, nor did he care He rested for a while, then stood up, ready to start a new round of beating
Kuo Zhen finally broke down “Stop beating I’ll talk,” he said
“Well,” Bo Sang was a bit disappointed “I thought that the grandson of the Khan would last longer than others,” he commented
It turned out that Kuo Zhen had an iathering on the southern border and preparing to fight against the Central Plain, under the command of the Khan All the nobles had to contribute their soldiers, and they were only allowed to keep a few thousand guards at home
Kuo Zhen was really supposed to be “dead” He was supposed to leave the Royal Court secretly and go to the south to lead his army back on the appointed date
The truth that Kuo Zhen was alive was a top secret If the other lords had found out about it, they would have i Kuari’s plan Therefore, Kuo Zhen had to secretly hit the road alone Unfortunately, he had coon King When King Kuari discovered that his brother was , he did not dare to send people to look for hih he was very worried
This infor did not care He threw another volley of fists onto Kuo Zhen until he pleaded forcall in Senior Shou to tell him about Kuo Zhen’s confession
Senior Shou was stunned, finding hi involved in theWenshi+ to take Kuo Zhen away, but was refused The Dragon King’s camp was evenWenshi+ reported to the Dragon King
King Kuari’s plan gradually became clearer: Golden Roc Fort would kill the Khan and fra Kuo Zhen would lead the army back and take control of the whole situation when the Royal Court fell into chaos Thus King Kuari would be able to make all the nobles surrender at the least cost
Fang Wenshi+, however, did not haveRizhu and the Khan’s second wife Despite of all his efforts, he could not get any officials or nobles to talk, and the inforot fro these rumors, so thousands of soldiers Others said that she was an adulteress, cheating with several North lords None of the ru Wenshi+ could not identify the offspring of the Khan that the second as particularly close to
“This woman is not simple From the day that she ed and vilified by many forces in the Court But she has overcome all difficulties and has become more and more favored by the Khan Most people believe that she stays away frohts for the throne Al Rizhu, andWenshi+ reported
Fang Wenshi+ rarely coon King, “What should we do next? Continue our alliance with her?”
“TellWenshi+ took a deep breath “We should re It is said that the Khan has been interested in her, but it has not been made public Now is the best chance to kill her We can leave King Kuari alone for now, and let the second wife arrange for the Dragon King to uarantee of the alliance, we can proceed to the next step,” he said
Gu Shenwei’s thoughts were similar He did not have much choice now Whether he chose to be an oberver or flee froed with the assassination, anyway His best choice was to get deeper into the conspiracy and wait for a chance to fight back
“I need someone familiar with the inside story of the Royal Court Find this person, noto get help
Fang Wenshi+ thought seriously for a while “The subordinates of King Dari are living in fear everyday Maybe one of the to make some money,” he said
Gu Shenwei tapped on his scabbard with his finger and thought for aKuari’s residence, preferably one of his trusted followers,” he said
“This… King Kuari treats his subordinatesWenshi+ said, not following the Dragon King’s thoughts
“Prisoners are even easier to buy off,” Gu Shenwei said, suddenly re Ji had said to him The minions always count how much they have contributed When the payment is less than the contribution, or there is no payment, they willl betray “Try it,” he said
Coer and si for a while, he slowly nodded and said, “Well, I’ll try”
