Li Hongyuan said, "The person behind Mu Jian is hidden too deeply, and even now I still haven't been able to investigate thoroughly. I want to know whether he is really connected to the Jiang family or not."
"Why bother with this effort, putting your own wife and children in danger?" The Emperor disapproved of his actions, "It's just a mere Mu Jian, capture and torture him, and I doubt he will still refuse to confess."
Li Hongyuan shook his head slightly, "This won't work for Mu Jian. On the contrary, it will alert the others."
He had grown up with Mu Jian, and he knew Mu Jian's character better than anyone else.
He was a man with unwavering determination. No amount of physical pain could ever make him yield even the slightest bit.
What's even more troublesome is that Mu Jian's parents had passed away early, and he himself had not married and had children. There was simply no one to threaten him with.
Li Hongyuan did feel a bit regretful in his heart.
