The wonderful life of modern women in ancient times

Chapter 551 Interrogation

"You guys go in and get some rest. I'll go to the palace to report the epidemic to the regent and I'll be back soon."

Lin Kang stood at the gate of the yard and spoke to Lin An and the other kids, then he quickly headed for the palace.

Lin An and the others had just returned to their rooms, washed up and lay down on the bed when they sensed the scent of a stranger.

They opened their eyes quickly, got out of bed quietly, opened the door, and headed towards the strange breath in the yard.

At this time, the guard of Jingbei Marquis's Mansion was looking around in the yard and heading towards the main courtyard. As soon as he reached the middle of the main courtyard, he found that there were people standing all around him. He was so scared that he trembled all over, and when he realized what was happening, he was about to run away.

How could these kids let him escape? Yuanyuan raised her hand towards him, and he suddenly felt weak all over and fell to the ground.

"Who are you and what are you doing sneaking into my house?"

Yuanyuan squatted in front of him, stared at him with her big harmless eyes blinking and asked.

"I, I lost money in the casino today. Seeing that this courtyard is very grand, I want to come in and try my luck to see if I can steal some money and win back my money in the casino."

The guard rolled his eyes and thought of an excuse.

"We have been observing you for a while. If you stole any item from the courtyards you just entered and sold it, you could get a lot of money. But you have no interest in those valuables. You are not here to steal at all. Tell me! Who are you? What are you doing in our house?"

When Yuanyuan saw that the guard was lying, her face turned stern and she began to interrogate him.

It's just that she looks so cute that her intimidation is limited.

Seeing the man in front of her with his eyes rolling around and not showing any fear, Yuanyuan had an idea and took out a paper bag from the space ring. Lin An stepped forward quickly and pinched the man's mouth open. Yuanyuan laughed and poured all the powder in the paper bag into the guard's mouth.

"Humph! This is a new poison I developed. Since you are not honest, I will test it on you first."

Yuanyuan snorted coldly, stood up, kicked the man, and then stepped aside.

Lin An also stood with his arms folded with his friends, waiting to see the effect of Yuanyuan's poison.

After Lin An released the guard's mouth, he hurriedly put his left index finger into his throat and dug it hard, then bent over and lay on the ground, retching.

"What did you feed me?"

As soon as the guard asked this question, he felt a chill all over his limbs. After a while, he felt as if he had fallen into an ice cave. He curled up on the ground and shivered. After a while, his whole body felt like it was burning on fire and the severe pain made him wail continuously!

"Who?"

Suddenly, the kids looked towards the gate of the yard at the same time and asked in unison.

"Hello, gentlemen and ladies. We heard wailing in the yard, so we came to check it out!"

It turned out that they were the death warriors from the next yard who were ordered by Jun Moyue to protect Lin Xi and his group.

"Thank you for your concern. This man sneaked into our yard in the middle of the night. We are interrogating him!"

Lin An smiled at these assassins, then pointed at the guards on the ground and spoke to them.

"He is from the Jingbei Marquis's residence!"

A assassin dressed as a maid strode up to the guard, squatted down, pinched his face and looked at him for a while, then said with certainty.

The guard didn't expect that someone knew him, and he suddenly became panicked.

"Marquis Jingbei's men?"

The kids looked at each other. What were the people of Jingbei Marquis doing in their yard? Could it be that Jingbei Marquis wanted to vent his anger on his daughter because of the conflict between his daughter and them? There was no need to drag it out until now, right?

While they were thinking, they saw the maid-like assassin bowing to them and asked, "My lords and ladies, it is getting late, why don't you let me take this man away for a thorough interrogation?"

"No need, we can interrogate him ourselves. You guys can go back. This man can't escape from our grasp!"

Chen Yan took two steps forward and spoke politely to the assassin.

"Then I'll take my leave. If you have any instructions, you can come to us at any time!"

When the assassins heard Chen Yan's words, they bowed respectfully to them and then quickly disappeared from Lin Xi's yard.

"Sister Yuanyuan, let's go interrogate this man!"

Lin An came up to Yuanyuan and said, blinking his clever big eyes.

He learned some interrogation skills from his sister and put them to use.

"Xiao An'er and I will go pry open this man's mouth. Sister Daya, you two go and have a rest. If there is any important news, I will call you!"

Yuanyuan said this to Daya and the others, then she and Lin An grabbed the man and left the main courtyard to a small courtyard nearby.

Less than a quarter of an hour later, Yuanyuan and Lin An returned to the main courtyard and saw that Daya and her group did not go back to their rooms to sleep, but gathered in the hall waiting for them.

"Xiao An'er, what did you ask?"

Lin Ping saw Lin An and Yuanyuan come in, both of them looked a little serious, so he walked over and asked.

"The guard said that a soldier guarding the city went to report to Marquis Jingbei, and informed him that we had just entered the city with the regent token. Then Marquis Jingbei asked him to check whether the children who entered the city mentioned by the soldier were ours. He also said that the Marquis Jingbei's mansion has been very busy these days, and people with high martial arts skills often come in and out. As for what they are busy with, he doesn't know. He also said that servants in the Marquis Jingbei's mansion have often disappeared inexplicably these days, and their marquis does not allow them to investigate or make this matter public. It's very strange!"

Lin An held her chin with her small hand and spoke slowly.
