When Ruyan returned to her Shaoyao Courtyard from the guest room, Wu Ying immediately reported, "Princess Consort, the suspect has been detained."
"Has she confessed?"
"She said she will confess only if she can see the Princess Consort. I have used many tortures, but she is a tough nut to crack."
Wu Ying had admiration for her. To endure under his hands for that long without uttering a word.
Ruyan frowned, "Let's go, take me to see her."
She let Luo Shunchen and the two children return to their rooms to rest first while she followed Wu Ying to the cell to see her.
In the cell, many torture instruments hung on the walls. A person was chained by the wrists and hung, her head drooped, and she remained silent.
Ruyan saw her body covered in bruises, yet felt no pity, merely gazing quietly at her as she took step by step to her front, "I am here, will you tell me everything now?"
