Chapter 378 - 377 What kind of reward is this? (Second Update)
Seeing the person behind him about to assault him again, Zhang Er hurriedly said,
"Don’t hit me, don’t hit me anymore, what I said isn’t entirely rumors, Princess Hehui and Sheng Family’s eldest son, Sheng Heng, have been childhood sweethearts. The Sheng Family has been practicing medicine for generations, but for Princess Hehui’s sake, Sheng Heng gave up medicine to gain scholarly honor and even became the top scholar. The Prince’s Mansion was also intent on marrying Princess Hehui to him. If it wasn’t for the current Emperor of Houliang meddling, they would have been married long ago, perhaps even with children."
Seeing the cold expression on the face of his own Khan, Yelang went up and slapped Zhang Er several times in the face, angrily saying, "For babbling nonsense!"
Zhang Er covered his head and argued loudly, "I wasn’t babbling nonsense, everyone in Chang’an knows about Princess Hehui and the eldest son of the Sheng Family. Just ask around, and you’ll see I’m telling the truth!"
Yelu Yan looked at Yelang and spoke calmly, "The old rules."
The old rules meant that after rigorous interrogation, if nothing substantial was found out, the person would be killed.
Yelang respectfully saluted with a bent arm and said, "Yes!"
Yelu Yan rose and walked out.
Zhang Er cried out from behind him, "Noble sir, spare my life, noble sir, spare my life, I will never dare again."
Soon, his pleas for mercy were replaced by howls of pain.
