Nightfall.
Anqing County, inside a torture chamber.
The torch on the wall cast a flickering light.
Zhang Feng and the Eldest Prince sat upright at the top.
In the small open space ahead were various torture devices and the Chief Constable and County Captain tied to torture chairs.
On the ground beneath them lay several weapons and gold and silver treasures found in the well of their home.
"Speak! Did you cover up the forbidden books case?"
Whip!
At this moment, a constable took over the petty officer's role, whipping a wet lash onto the Chief Constable, eliciting a miserable scream from him.
With his scream, the interrogation officially began.
However, the Chief Constable was a man of steel; despite his howls, he wouldn't say a word about the forbidden books case.
On the contrary, he glared at everyone, fiercely saying, "Have the guts to kill me!"
Whip!
The constable didn't kill him, instead continued the flogging.
