Chapter 540: They're all his people
Upon hearing this question, Lin Rusi didn't move at all, but stared at the other person with a half-smile.
Their eyes met directly, and Shen Liuying froze on the spot. She wanted to get up and fight back, but a hand grabbed her.
"You really want to know what's inside? Why don't we take a look together?"
"Look? You wrote all of this, and you can say whatever you want."
Lin Rusi sat calmly to one side, and after a long while, she let out a soft laugh.
"Are you finally done talking?"
"What exactly do you want? This letter is definitely not what I want."
Lin Rusi was too lazy to argue with someone who refused to admit it, so she simply opened it, revealing two thick sheets of paper inside.
Shen Liuying stood there stunned, clearly wanting to say something more, when she heard familiar words.
"I used to think that no one could touch my heartstrings, until I met you, and then I understood what it meant to have a face as handsome as Pan An..."
"Stop reading!"
Lin Rusi flicked the letter in her hand, a more natural smile appearing on her face.
Shen Liuying realized that she was too excited. She stood there blankly, her lips trembling, and finally lowered her head.
Why are you reacting so strongly? Did I guess right?
When their eyes met, Lin Rusi's face became even brighter as she smiled at Shen Liuying.
These actions made her even more nervous, but she quickly managed to force a smile again.
"I just don't want to hear you read letters to other people."
"How do you know this letter is for someone else? It could be for Li Jingyang too."
Shen Liuying curled her lips into a smile and snatched the letter from Lin Rusi's hand.
He shook the envelope at the person, and a smile once again appeared on his lips.
"Isn't it written clearly here? I never imagined that the lady would still have contact with Prince Yun."
"How come you don't even know how to throw dirty water?"
What do you mean?
Shen Liuying stared at Lin Rusi in astonishment, wanting to ask for clarification, when she saw several guards step forward.
Having spent these past few days together, she naturally knew the other party's abilities. She tried to escape, but was pressed to the ground by a hand.
"Bring it inside the tent to avoid misunderstandings."
"What are you doing? She's been corresponding with Prince Yun, betraying your master!"
"Shut up!"
The guard looked at the handwriting on it, and the undisguised disdain in his eyes was exposed to Shen Liuying.
Even after the person was thrown to the ground, they still insisted that it wasn't their fault, and that it wasn't their letter.
"Is this the handwriting I used to write my letters?"
"I've seen your calligraphy before; the handwriting is exactly the same!"
"really?"
Lin Rusi casually pulled a letter from among Li Jingyang's books; it was the one she had sent back. She tossed it over to him.
Unaware of what was going on, she opened it and discovered that the image inside was not delicate at all, but rather had a masculine and unrestrained quality.
"We put in a lot of effort to avoid being stopped, and even if someone sees it, they won't think it was written by me."
"You're really something, but so what? Doesn't that just prove that you wrote this letter?"
Lin Rusi looked at the stubborn Shen Liuying, shook her head helplessly, and took out a brown cloth bag from her waist.
With a casual toss, it spreads out smoothly on the table, revealing the silver needles arranged from smallest to largest inside.
"I've learned a skill, so I'll let you try it out."
"What are you going to do? I warn you, if you actually do it, you'll regret it."
"Then I'll give it a try. I haven't tried anything that I regretted before."
Lin Rusi picked up the thickest silver needle and walked forward, but instead of squatting down, she casually tossed it down.
Seeing that it was indeed too casual, Shen Liuying was just about to mock him when she was overcome by a sharp pain in her body and let out a shrill scream.
"That's really jarring. Should I seal your speech acupoint too?"
As Lin Rusi finished speaking, a silver needle fell and pierced Shen Liuying's neck. There was no more sound from her in the tent.
But the silence didn't mean she would stop; instead, she plunged in even more silver needles in one go.
Once Shen Liuying had transformed into the shape of a wild boar, Lin Rusi finally withdrew her hand with satisfaction and sat down to drink the perfectly warm tea.
"After one incense stick's time, the silver needles in the neck can be removed."
"Waaah!"
Seeing that Lin Rusi was about to leave, Shen Liuying, who was in pain all over, was unwilling to leave and immediately struggled with all her might, hoping that the other party would stay.
But she acted as if she hadn't seen it, casually turning her gaze away and walking straight out.
As Shen Liuying watched the figure disappear, she could no longer hold back her tears, which fell to the ground and were absorbed by the soil.
After enduring the pain for what felt like an incense stick's time, as the silver needles were removed with comforting words, she collapsed to the ground, struggling to twist her body in an attempt to escape the pain.
But who is Lin Rusi? How could she let people live so easily?
Almost every movement brought back that piercing pain, until finally Shen Liuying could only collapse to the ground.
"How are you feeling? Are you still willing to talk?"
"you……"
"It seems you're unwilling, then I'd better give you the medicine."
As she swallowed the bitter medicine powder, Shen Liuying let out another mournful cry, and then the faint light in her eyes vanished.
"You are Prince Yun's man, does your brother know that?"
“I was originally sent to Li Jingyang by my brother, who was trying to use my beauty to lure him into telling everything.”
Both of them are Prince Yun's men; Li Jingyang really didn't take it seriously.
Looking at the dazed Shen Liuying, Lin Rusi felt even more irritated and slapped the person across the face.
The stinging pain brought her back to her senses, followed by shock and disbelief.
"Is this how you control Li Jingyang? Lin Rusi, you're shameless!"
“I never needed to use these tactics against him.”
After saying this, Lin Rusi waved to the guards, ordering them to take him away.
On the other side, Li Jingyang opened his eyes and saw no one. Without thinking, he rushed to the military camp.
He happened to see this scene and couldn't help but walk over.
Just as Shen Liuying was about to acknowledge her and beg for mercy, a silver needle appeared on her neck.
"They're making a lot of noise. Go down and keep a close watch on them."
"Yes."
The guards, seeing Li Jingyang walking briskly into the conscription area, dared not utter a sound and rushed into the city's prison.
Unaware that Lin Rusi had already asked him everything, he saw two letters on the ground as soon as he entered the tent.
Out of the corner of my eye, I had already gained a slight understanding of the situation.
"You really were careless, letting him sneak people into your circle like that."
“You’re right, Madam. I will be more careful in the future.”
