Unlimited estates for rural beauty-Chapter 366: Two More Updates Coming Soon (1)
"Hmph, spare me the nonsense, kill or slash as you wish, but don’t expect to pry a single word from my lips." He looked up disdainfully at Dugu Chen and spat forcefully.
Xuan Yue, holding him down, kicked fiercely behind his knees, and with a ’bang’, he fell to the ground. The man in black turned back fiercely, glaring at Xuan Yue with hatred, struggling to rise, but to no avail.
"Take him back, I want to see if his tongue is tougher or my torture devices are tougher," said the Prince.
"Yes, my lord."
"Tian Yi, where are Jueqing and the others?" Seeing Xuan Yue and Huang Yi taking the man away, he then turned to the wounded Tian Yi.
Kneeling on one knee, head bowed, Tian Yi replied, "My lord, everyone in the Xuanyuan Mansion is safe, and Jueqing has already sent them to the nearest court branch."
"Good, rise and go heal your wounds properly."
"Thank you, my lord." He got up, mounted his horse, and followed the Prince, riding quickly back to the residence.
In the dungeon beneath the Prince Residence, Xuan Yue and Huang Yi continuously tortured the man, yet he remained silent, biting down hard on his teeth without making a sound.
"My lord." Upon seeing the master himself arriving, the two stepped aside to clear the way.
"Did he confess?"
"No." Both hung their heads in shame, not daring to meet the Prince’s ominously dark expression.
Dugu Chen scanned the man on the rack, a wicked smile playing on his lips, but the rage in his eyes grew even more intense.
"Speak, who is your master?" His fingers gripped the man’s jaw tightly, clenching his back teeth, all because of them, he had almost parted with his wife forever, the thought sending a shiver of fear through him.
Upon hearing these words, the man previously with eyes shut tight, opened them, and let out a spiteful chuckle. Squinting his swollen eyes, he opened his bloody mouth, "Want to know? I won’t tell you."
Releasing his jaw with a sneer, "Then you can slowly await the process of death."
"If he won’t talk, pull out his tongue, watch him closely, I want him to wish for death."
"Yes, my lord."
Upon exiting the dungeon and seeing the bright sky, a smile curled on his lips. He had a son and a daughter now, he had become a father. Thinking of those tiny bundles of soft flesh filled his heart with unstoppable joy.
After washing, he changed into clean clothes and, seeing his wife still soundly asleep, he went to the children’s chamber.
"My lord." The two new wet nurses, upon seeing the Prince, quickly knelt to greet him.
"Stand up, where are the children? I have come to see them." He strode in, and seeing that they were not holding the children, he passed over the two on the ground and proceeded to the bedroom.
Dugu Chen saw the two little ones sleeping so sweetly that he couldn’t resist stretching out his Magic Claw to gently touch their soft, adorable faces, occasionally popping the bubbles coming out of the babies’ mouths with his fingers.
The two wet nurses stood to the side with their heads hung low, seeing such a high official for the first time in their lives, who was not only a prince but also the War God, they were somewhat excited, yet dared not be inappropriate.
"Take good care of the Princely Heir and the Commandery Princess. I will double your silver, and there will be additional rewards. If you do not care for them well, be mindful of your heads." Although his voice was very low, it sounded like thunder to the wet nurses, who hastily prostrated themselves on the ground, "Yes, my lord. We will take very good care of the Princely Heir and the Commandery Princess."
Seeing their honesty, he did not trouble them further, "Stand up."
"Thank you, my lord."
He glanced back at the two little ones, played with them for a while, and then stood up to leave.

The silence in the secret chamber of the Shangguan Residence felt heavy; the floor was a mess. Shangguan Rui looked furiously at the people before him.
