Mo Zhu instinctively wanted to step forward and take a look. It would be a lie to say that he was not curious, but Mo Zhu hesitated.

"Empress, men and women should not be intimate with each other. Moreover, Empress is the empress. This one is only clothed in cloth, I'm afraid it's not suitable."

In the past, Hu Xiao would always wear men's clothes, so Mo Zhu didn't feel that it was right, but now, it was really too inappropriate.

He didn't like being close to women, so he had no choice but to do so in the past. But now, no matter what, Mo Zhu couldn't even take a step towards him.

Hu Xiao curled her lips when she heard this. She was only wearing a woman's outfit today. Why did she start talking about men and women who don't like each other in the past?

But seeing that it was really too difficult, Hu Xiao took a few more steps forward.

Seeing this, Mo Zhu slowly walked forward.

"What a stubborn old man!"

Naturally, Mo Zhu heard these murmurs, but he also turned a deaf ear. As the saying goes, a wall has ears, he, Mo Zhu, did not want others to gossip about him.

Although Zhi Lan stood at the side and did not say anything, but looking at her expression, it could be seen that Mo Zhu had gone overboard this time, but it just so happened that Hu Xiao was being watched by various people, so being careful was extremely good.

"May I ask who this drawing is?"

The black bamboo stared fixedly at the area that Hu Xiao had drawn and asked while trembling.

"Hmm? Mr Mo Zhu didn't understand? Isn't Mr Mo Zhu studying torture tools? How about you fill it in yourself? "Is it more perfect than what you wanted?"

Perfect? Although she did not know what Perfection meant, Mo Zhu was very satisfied with Hu Xiao's actions. It was true that every time Hu Xiao saw him, she would give herself a pleasant surprise.

"Can the Empress describe in detail how this torture device is to be used?"

Previously, she did know about the Black Bamboo she drew, but Hu Xiao did not understand some parts of the Black Bamboo she drew later on.

Just as Hu Xiao was about to speak, she was interrupted.

"What are the Empress and the Mr Mo Zhu doing? What torture device? You speak so happily, do let me hear you speak so that I can hear you speak? "

He was used to seeing Zhao Qiyan interrogating prisoners in the dungeon, so he felt somewhat bored. This was why he wanted to see if Mo Zhu had any new moves, but he didn't expect that once he entered the door, it would be so quiet. Even the gatekeeper Yuan Bao was gone, so Yin Fufeng went straight to look for Mo Zhu's temporary study room.

He was wearing green clothes, but it wasn't able to cover the dense stench of blood on Yin Fufeng's body. Hu Xiao and Zhi Lan had fought since young, so naturally, they weren't unfamiliar with this smell.

"Master Yin, where did you come from? You smell so good."

As he said this, he covered his nose. It looked quite funny.

"Hmm? "On me?"

No one had ever said that his body smelled heavy. When Yin Fufeng heard this, he took a sniff and said, "Eh, it really is heavy."

As he thought about this, his face did not reveal any traces of it. Yin Fufeng looked at the movements of the ingot in amusement, as if he had found some entertainment. After walking a few steps forward, the ingot retreated a few steps, almost falling out the window.

"Master Yin."

Yuanbao was close to tears, his small face frowned, as he was afraid of Yin Fufeng's actions.

"Alright, Yin Fufeng, stop teasing Yuanbao, come over and take a look at this."

If he let Yin Fufeng continue bullying the ingots, he would cry, and could only speak to save him.

Hearing that, Yin Fufeng did not continue playing with the ingots, but turned and picked up the drawing.

When Mo Zhu was drawing, Yin Fufeng knew that he had filled in a few strokes, and now it seemed like the new strokes were done by Hu Xiao.

Glancing at Hu Xiao in shock, Yin Fufeng never thought that Hu Xiao would actually be so talented!

"This torture device must have been used on that assassin?"

Hu Xiao said softly after looking at Yin Fufeng, he looked extremely similar to a demon.

The words that came out of her beautiful face were truly terrifying.

merely flicked a glance at the drawing, but she was also extremely shocked. Since she was young, she had always been by Hu Xiao's side and had never come into contact with these things. She thought that the tools Zhao Qiyan had made last time would be his limit, but Hu Xiao was actually breaking her imagination time and time again.

"Since Empress has said so, there is no harm in using it on those two, I wonder if Mister can do it in the next few days?"

"Yes."

"Since that's the case, then I'll have to trouble Mr Mo Zhu."

Mo Zhu naturally knew about the people in the dungeon. Furthermore, they would be leaving the Ethereal Water Manor soon, so rushing them out in the next few days was not a big deal.

After finalizing the matter, Hu Xiao saw that the sky was already dark, so she left with Zhi Lan. She heard an incredible thing from Yin Fufeng's words just now.

Just interrogating a prisoner who wanted to kill him was enough to make him cross.

Even if she wasn't there, Hu Xiao would still know who was the mastermind behind the scenes. Other than Wen Fuchen, there was no one else who had been trying to cause trouble for him.

However, Hu Xiao did not have the time to bother with Wen Fuchen. The most important thing was to find out who it was that wanted to kill him from behind.

"Esteemed Empress, the Miss Soong came to see you while you were unconscious. However, she was stopped by Eunuch Wei."

After all, the Empress had just regained her identity and went to establish Miss Soong Xuan's prestige, and the relationship did not seem to be the same, but Zhi Lan was curious as to why Hu Xiao and Soong Xuan seemed to be close, could it be that the two of them had not met on the streets that day?

"Let's go to Soong Xuan's place."

Initially, Hu Xiao wanted to directly return home, but she suddenly changed her mind.

She nodded her head in satisfaction. That Soong Xuan's aunt had done too much, if Soong Xuan still continued to endure, Hu Xiao felt that it was very possible that she would pack up and send this group of people back to the Song Manor, so that they wouldn't get in her way.

"Greetings Empress."

Seeing Hu Xiao's clothes, Soong Xuan's expressionless face became cheerful.

"Just get up. If you are on your own, there is no need to bow. It will be difficult."

Hu Xiao said somewhat angrily as she walked forward to help Soong Xuan up, but after a moment, her smile blossomed.

"Alright, is the Empress doing well?" "Just send someone to notify me, why are you coming here yourself?"

Although it wasn't as pale as before, it had only been a few days, and his heart was still anxious.

"It's alright, I need to walk a few more steps to get better, but I think I heard that Xue Mier came here before?"
