The Famous Detective of the Red Mansion-Chapter 441: A Series of Skills and Tricks
Chapter 441: A Series of Skills and Tricks
This was not the time to mourn deeply for the Crown Prince's small caliber weapon.
Sun Shaozong's gaze shifted slightly upwards and fell on Li's pair of watery eyes. Li's original appearance was impeccable as the favored Concubine of Prince Yizhong and a woman of worldly descent.
But after all, she had been imprisoned for three years and had no freedom in this tiny area. Her skin was inevitably pale and flabby, and her beauty was only six or seven out of ten.
Only her pair of eyes remained brilliant and dazzling. When facing Sun Shaozong, not only did they not show any hesitation, but instead they showed contempt and mockery, as if the person who was locked on the wall and unable to move was Sun Shaozong.
After staring at Li-Shi for a while, Sun Shaozong finally spoke up and said, "The attendant has already admitted that he was instructed by Prince Yizhong parties to act on that ”tool.””
Li's expression suddenly changed, and her body suddenly moved forward, with several iron chains rattling.
It seemed that, as Liu Luanwei said on the way, she still didn’t know this news.
When the noise subsided, Sun Shaozong said again, "The people who spread the news of the Crown Prince's decapitation have also been caught. They all claim to be the remaining followers of Prince Yizhong.”

Sobs!
Li shook her head like a rattle drum, muttering vaguely in her mouth,, her saliva splashing all over, and a silver thread slowly dripping down her chin, dripping profusely onto her skirt.
Seeing that she was so agitated when she heard unfavorable news about Prince Yizhong, Sun Shaozong became even more curious about this sorrowful ”senior traveler.”
One should know how many years older Prince Yizhong was than Emperor Guangde, and now he was already in his 60s. However, no matter how he looked at Li-Shi, she didn’t exceed 25 years old.
What was it that caused a young and beautiful woman to have a lasting affection for half-century-old people until death?
“The current situation was extremely unfavorable for Prince Yizhong, so you must live and live well.”
Sun Shaozong approached without hesitation and took off the towel from Li's mouth, continuing, "Otherwise, they would all agree and this charge would definitely fall on Prince Yizhong. His Majesty is already afraid of Prince Yizhong, and coupled with this bloodthirsty feud, even if the Crown Prince appears, he may not be able to save him.”
Li-Shi first closed her mouth, swallowed a mouthful of saliva vigorously, and then frowned at Sun Shaozong for a while, questioning, "Who are you? What did that remark just now mean?”
“Nothing meaningful.”
Sun Shaozong turned around and placed the towel on the square table. He took the opportunity to pull over a bench and sat down on it. He said, "I must spend some time here, and I really can't think of anything to talk about with you. Being idle is also idle. It's better to listen to the process of your meeting with Prince Yizhong.”
This kind of behavior made Li feel at a loss, and she frowned and stared at Sun Shaozong for a while. Seeing him sitting there with a respectful appearance, she couldn't help but bite her silver teeth and resist, saying, "I don't know what your purpose is, but the Prince's subordinates are all loyal and righteous, and no one will ignore his safety and create such a dangerous situation.”
“Hmmm…”
Sun Shaozong let out a noncommittal hum and curiously asked, "Where was the first time you met Prince Yizhong?”
What's going on with this person?
At this moment, at this critical moment, he came to pester such unimportant matters!
Li became increasingly unsure of how to deal with it and deliberately ignored it. However, just now, in Sun Shaozong's words, there seemed to be an intention to shield Prince Yizhong. Although this person might not be trustworthy, talking to him about old things wouldn’t have any errors, right?
Therefore, Li-Shi finally said in a muffled voice, "The first time I met the Prince was on the veranda of the Embroidery Building in the backyard of Yanfang Pavilion. At that time, I was being grabbed and beaten by the manager because I wanted to escape. Suddenly, I heard someone shouting downstairs, “Let go of that girl, let me handle her.””
When Sun Shaozong heard this, he almost didn't fall off the bench. Even if he was a traveler, at least he was still a master over 50 years old. Did he need to show such detachment?
Li-Shi looked at Sun Shaozong's ghostly appearance, afraid that he might have a bad impression of Prince Yizhong. She quickly explained, "It was just a moment of confusion… His Majesty ascended the throne and was very afraid of the Prince. That's why the Prince deliberately acted recklessly and wanted to tarnish his name.”
Okay, this reason barely made sense.
Sun Shaozong rearranged his posture and assumed a posture of continuing to listen attentively.
“I didn't know the identity and difficulties of the Prince at that time, so I got angry for a moment and spoke disrespectfully towards him," Li murmured.
“Later on, although I learned about the identity of the Prince, I realized that it was difficult to escape death on both sides, and I spared no effort to speak nonsense.”
“Who knew that the Prince not only didn’t get angry but also praised me for daring to fight against fate, unlike ordinary women in the current era.”
“Later on, the Prince often went to Yanfang Pavilion to chat with me.”
“Every time he utters shocking words, sometimes he is innocent like a child.”
“He once wrote a hundred poems about drinking, but when he woke up, he pretended that it was someone else's work. He was just picking up people's teeth and wisdom.”
“The tight-fitting clothes he designed for women in the Pavilion became popular in the Capital in just ten months.”
“He elevated me to the throne of the flower queen in the Capital, and without hesitation, he gave me the deed of identity.”
“On that day, he said to me, "From today on, you will be free.””
“In this lifetime, I don't want to get out of his cage again.”
At first, Li-Shi was somewhat reluctant, but later on, she forgot about Sun Shaozong in front of her. Her voice was all lingering and reminiscent, with tears rolling in her eyes and a blush on her cheeks.
If anyone else listened, they couldn’t help but be moved by the plot.
However, Sun Shaozong became increasingly speechless as he listened. Prince Yizhong, who was copying poetry, making innerwear, and raising the flower as the head of the Pavilion, he definitely read a lot of online articles!
Upon seeing Li finally finish confiding and the process of getting to know Prince Yizhong, Sun Shaozong took out his pocket watch and looked at it. It had already been about 30 minutes, so he stood up and picked up the towel. He apologized and said, "I'm sorry; I'm afraid I might have to continue to put this in your mouth.”
Li-Shi thought he was going to put on the towel for herself, and she didn't pay much attention. Instead, she continued to immerse herself in reminiscing.
Unexpectedly, after Sun Shaozong put the towel on her, she still refused to stop. Instead, he forcefully stuffed three fingers into her mouth, two fingers tightly pressing against the base of her tongue, and his middle finger scratching back and forth on the tonsils.
What was this supposed to be?!
Li was inexplicably surprised and felt a fit of nausea. The soup and water that had been forced into her stomach at noon stirred for a while, and finally, she couldn't help but vomit it out, dirtying most of Sun Shaozong's ink dragon-swallowing cloud robe!
