Qu Tianchen stared at him coldly. "Confess. Let's see if what you know can save your life. Why don't you start by telling me, when did Qu Muxi buy you off?"
Tu Kan prostrated on the ground, his voice hoarse like a broken gong after his frantic screams earlier. "Your Highness the Crown Prince, it was... it was after Seventh Master Jian left last time... Your Highness, he—he found my family. He threatened me, saying that if I didn't work for him, he would kill my family. I was forced into this. Please, Your Highness, spare my life..."
Qu Tianchen sneered coldly.
To prevent such threats against family members, the eunuchs closest to him—the ones who cared for his daily needs—were all people with no family, no ties, no attachments.
Qu Muxi really went to great lengths, finding Tu Kan's family just to deal with him!
Qu Tianchen glared at him coldly. "What else do you know? Speak!"
