Chapter 818 - 818 Lion Camel Ridge 8
Tiger and the others also followed in at this time. The killer had no way to run and ran into the dagger in Gu Chengrui’s hand. At the same time, he clenched his hands into fists and smashed toward his temple.
Gu Chengrui immediately leaned back, raised his leg, and kicked him in the chest.
The killer took two steps back but was quickly stopped by Tiger and the others. They quickly gave him some muscle relaxant.
“Tie him up.
“Brother Tiger, inform the people guarding the stronghold that everyone is only allowed to enter and not leave. Otherwise, they will be killed without mercy.” Gu Chengrui said.
“Ah?” Tiger looked at him in confusion.
“The old informants of King Hui all had a poison sac in their mouths, but this one doesn’t. This means that he developed later, and the person that the mole mentioned hasn’t been found.”
Tiger’s expression froze after hearing that. He nodded and led the two of them out.
Gu Chengrui waited for him to leave and immediately began interrogating the killer.
With just one piece of paper, he had identified the person beside him. His superior was the earliest informant, and he was now a captain and had over a hundred subordinates.
He knew that he had already developed seven people.
He didn’t know anything else.
Gu Chengrui was about to go out with the name list when Lin Yitian walked in and asked, “Marquis, are you okay?”
“Pretty good. How are the brothers?”
“Very good. We’ll rest after everyone is bandaged.”
Gu Chengrui nodded and handed the list to a bandit he had just saved.
The bandit nodded solemnly, then turned around and ran out.
Gu Chengrui asked someone to keep an eye on the killer while he sat on the chair to rest.
After a while, the outside became chaotic, but it quickly calmed down. Tiger captured the seven people on the list.
After a round of interrogation, they arrested another group of people.
Gu Chengrui also understood what was happening with the weapons in the note he got from Master Liu.
It turned out that King Hui still had an iron mine in his hands, and a large number of weapons were being forged inside.
More importantly, he even got the address of the iron mine.
As for the person in charge of the iron mine, he was the general judge of Qianzhou Province.
After confirming that the news had not been leaked, Gu Chengrui got Tiger to kill all the informants.
As for those who knew the news, they were temporarily put under house arrest.
When they were almost done, the people from the stronghold who had helped Master Liu and the others were all captured.
After more interrogation, more than half of the people in the entire stronghold had already sided with King Hui.
Only the First Leader, Second Leader, and their trusted aides were still in the dark.
Thus, those who rebelled would all be executed.
As for the First Leader and the Second Leader, they stayed in the stronghold for the time being.
At night, Gu Chengrui wrote the matter into a memorial and put the note in it.
When it was late at night, he called Zhou Ying and handed the item to her. “In the name of Mother God, send it to the Emperor as soon as possible.” “Understood. You won’t be coming in today?”
“No, there are too many people here. I won’t go in.”
“Alright, go to bed early.” After Zhou Ying finished speaking, she gave him some self-defense powder.
Only then did she open the memorial and take a glance.
After reading it, Zhou Ying shook her head and went straight to the Emperor.
At this moment, the Emperor had finished seeing the Eldest Prince and was about to take a bath. Zhou Ying quickly sent him a voice transmission and asked him to return to the study.
The Emperor was stunned for a moment. When he realized that it was the voice of the Mother God, he nodded to Gu Wanning and immediately rushed to the royal study.
After he entered the study, Zhou Ying handed the memorial to the Emperor..
