Ye Shangshu ordered, and the black shadow outside the window responded and left again.

If many people were asleep, they would be taken away by the men in black, and they would not be able to speak even if their mute points were tapped.

In the dungeon of the Ye Mansion, seven men and women were kneeling on the ground shivering. They only wore a pair of middle coats. Now that there was no fire in the dungeon, they were naturally shivering from the cold.

"Do you know why I called you here today?" Manager Mo walked out, changing his previous submissive attitude. His whole body seemed to be covered with a layer of frost, which lowered the temperature in the prison by a few degrees.

.

The seven men and women looked up blankly. How did they know?

"Do you suspect that the fire in Miss Qi's yard was caused by the slaves?" One of the middle-aged women asked worriedly.

Manager Mo smiled and said, "The arsonist has been caught, and it's not one of you."

"Don't worry, then why?" Before the words could be spoken, seven men and women were thrown into several huge pottery jars by men in black. The water was very cold. As soon as the people entered, their faces lost color, because it was a little bit cold.

If the acupuncture points are damaged, they can't move even if they want to.

Mo Guanshi didn't say much. He just ordered someone to pour cold water on their heads, one ladle after another, until they told the truth.

It was very quiet in the sky prison. I could only hear everyone's breathing, the sound of splashing water, and the faint sound of heartbeats.

Women were not as cold-resistant as men, so they fainted immediately.

Manager Mo winked, and someone stabbed him awake with a silver needle, and continued to question him.

"I said...I said..."

One man finally couldn't bear it anymore and said, "Stop pouring water on it. It's so cold. I said... I'll say anything."

These seven people are all old people in Ye Mansion. If they were sold by others, it would have happened a long time ago, and it cannot be something that happened just this year.

"Think clearly, if you tell lies, I will throw you into a pot of boiling water and cook you." Manager Mo didn't want to waste time, and the man didn't want to waste time either, "I...my master is Concubine Xu Xian!"

Mo Guanshi's eyes narrowed, "Continue talking."

"Twenty years ago, Concubine Xu Xian was still a girl who had not entered the palace. My family fled from Henan. As soon as we arrived in the capital, we fainted from hunger. Concubine Xu Xian gave us food. After that, Ye Mansion recruited people

, we sold ourselves and came in. Over the years, Concubine Xu Xian has never asked us to do anything detrimental to Ye Mansion."

The man's face resembled that of an ordinary middle-aged man, except for his eyes, which were so dark and dark. Steward Mo smiled coldly, "I hate hearing lies the most."

As soon as his hands moved, the two men in black directly carried the man to a large iron pot in front of him. The iron pot was very big and was usually used to boil water when killing pigs. The man in black let go.

, the man fell into the bottom of the pot.

"Last chance, tell the truth, or lie?" asked Manager Mo.

The man glanced at Guanshi Mo and said, "What I said is all the truth."

"Make a fire!" Guanshi Mo ordered, and countless torches were placed under the big iron pot.

The temperature of the water in the iron pot gradually increased. At first, the man felt a little enjoyment. After all, he had just moved out of the cold water tank and into the hot water pot, and the warm water tightly surrounded him.

He smiled with satisfaction.
