Sweet pet: The queen is delicate and soft

"There is no need to prepare. Mistress and I will go to the secret prison together."

Canglong's subordinates thought well. Xiao Mobai would not take Gu Nian to the secret prison before, but the recent calmness and boldness shown by Gu Nian made Xiao Mobai want to take Gu Nian into his own world.

"Yes, my subordinates know."

Xiao Mobai's men would never question any decision made by Xiao Mobai.

After a brief exchange with his subordinates, Xiao Mobai led Gu Nian to the secret prison.

On the way to the secret cell, Xiao Mobai asked Gu Nian softly: "Nian'er, you may see torture scenes in a while. Are you afraid?"

Although he decided to take Gu Nian to the secret prison, Xiao Mobai still wanted to say hello to Gu Nian in advance.

Gu Nian was held gently by Xiao Mobai, and feeling the warmth coming from Xiao Mobai's broad palm, Gu Nian felt extremely at ease.

"Not afraid. With brother Mo Bai here, Nian'er is not afraid at all."

Gu Nian shook his head and answered extremely firmly. With Xiao Mobai by his side, Gu Nian didn't feel afraid at all.

Even as the two of them went deeper into the secret cell step by step, Gu Nian still didn't feel the slightest bit scared when a bit of cool air blew on him.

The two walked to the depths of the cell and saw that the housekeeper had been beaten and tied to a cross with a haggard head.

Hearing the sound of someone coming in, the housekeeper tried his best to raise his head.

The moment he saw Xiao Mobai, the housekeeper's pupils suddenly widened.

"Prince? You actually tied me here? What kind of place is this?"

The housekeeper was surprised that Xiao Mobai still had his own power so far away from the capital and had such a large secret prison.

From the moment he entered this place, the housekeeper has been doubting whether his master was right to follow the eighth prince and the prince in confronting him over the years.

"You don't need to worry about where this place is. You just need to know that if you don't cooperate, you won't be able to leave here alive."

Xiao Mobai took Gu Nian and sat on the chairs prepared for them by Canglong's subordinates.

In the cell, there were people from Canglong who were responsible for tormenting the housekeeper. Although the master said that he would interrogate him personally, he could not let the master torture the housekeeper himself.

Hearing Xiao Mobai's words, the steward's eyes lit up with hope.

"His Highness said so, does that villain still have a chance to leave here?"

Although he worked for the governor and did many heinous things, he still hoped to stay alive in this world.

"Whether you can leave or not depends entirely on what you said and whether it is worth it for me to let you go."

"I tell you, I tell you everything. What does Your Highness want to know? I will definitely tell you everything."

Since being imprisoned, the housekeeper has been severely beaten by the person in charge of the cell.

Now that he finally saw His Highness the Crown Prince, he would definitely seize this opportunity. Otherwise, he might really have no chance to see the sun tomorrow.

"I want to know everything you and the governor do."

Xiao Mobai asked Ye Zhao to investigate, but he hasn't heard back yet. Then why not just listen to this butler and tell them what they did.

"Yes, yes. I tell you everything."

Xiao Mobai sat there, scratched the tea cup with the lid, and took a slow sip of tea.

"Nian'er, try it. This tea is good."

Xiao Mobai drank some delicious tea and didn't forget to share it with Gu Nian.

"okay."

Recommended by Xiao Mobai, Gu Nian also picked up the tea cup and took a slow sip.

The two of them looked leisurely, not at all like they were in a terrifying secret prison, but rather like they were on vacation.

The housekeeper looked at the two of them and couldn't help but feel that he was also thirsty. But he didn't dare to ask Xiao Mobai for a drink of water.

After he had sorted out everything, he spoke.

The housekeeper told him that over the years, he had helped the governor embezzle money, oppress the people, and secretly have affairs with the Eighth Prince.

But the only thing the housekeeper didn't say was about the lonely graves on the back hill.

It's not that the housekeeper forgot, but that he knew very well that the embezzlement of money would ultimately result in the court losing some money.

But for the lives of those people, it was a real crime.

Moreover, the housekeeper also had a sense of luck. He did not think that Xiao Mobai could detect the lonely graves on the back mountain.

He just didn't expect that he had a pig teammate who had already betrayed himself when he went up the mountain.

After hearing this, Xiao Mobai calmly took a sip of tea and asked, "Has the housekeeper finished telling everything?"

Indeed, Xiao Mobai could not deny that the housekeeper did say a lot of things that he did not expect.

But the housekeeper was smart enough not to mention the corpses on the mountain behind. You know, after Ye Zhao's investigation into this matter, it has been determined that those girls from good families were all given to the governor through the hands of the housekeeper.

Afterwards, the governor would definitely not dispose of the corpses himself, so it is conceivable whose work the lonely graves on the back mountain were.

"Yes, yes. I have told His Highness everything I know."

The housekeeper didn't know that Xiao Mobai had already known about the lonely grave, and thought his lie was perfect.

Xiao Mobai slowly put down the tea cup in his hand and said coldly: "In this case, housekeeper, don't blame me for not letting you go."

Hearing Xiao Mobai say such words, the housekeeper looked at Xiao Mobai in horror.

"No, no. Didn't His Highness say that if the villain told everything, he would let the villain go?"

"Whether you have told everything, you know it yourself."

After Xiao Mobai finished speaking, he stood up to leave.

"No, Your Highness, Your Highness, I forgot just now, but now I remember."

Seeing Xiao Mobai's look, the housekeeper quickly reviewed what he had just said in his mind.

What should be said and what should not be said. He has said it all.

But His Highness the Prince actually said that he had not finished speaking, so that was the only thing left.

After hearing the butler's words, Xiao Mobai glanced at the butler coldly, and then sat back down.

"Go ahead."

After Xiao Mobai's order, the housekeeper slowly began to talk about the lonely tomb on the back mountain.

Although Xiao Mobai already knew that the housekeeper and the governor had done this, they would not know the details if the governor didn't tell them. So Xiao Mobai still had to listen to the butler himself.

"In addition to working with the Eighth Prince and embezzling the court's money, we adults also have a special hobby that even the Eighth Prince doesn't know about. He likes to play with the little girls of ordinary people.

He felt that the women in the brothel were dirty, so he asked me to search for good-natured women among the people.

At the beginning, I just spent money to buy women who were willing to sell their homes.

But later on, I became increasingly unable to meet the needs of adults..."
