Jiapingguan Chronicle

Chapter 1198

After hearing Hei Lu'er's question, Ziyi's mouth, which was still eloquent just now, was tightly closed again.

A Piao glanced at Ziyi, then at Yi Qianzhang, then turned his head and raised an eyebrow at Hei Lu'er and Wu Shudan.

"When I was chatting about gossip, I was talking happily, but the hype was falling, and it was time to talk about serious things, and I became a gourd again, refusing to speak." Wu Shudan was tired from sitting, stood up and walked around twice, stopped. In front of Ziyi and Yi Qianzhang, "You should be very clear about your current situation and what it is like. Or what I just said, it is impossible to expect your Highness to save you."

"As long as you dare to think, everything is possible." Ziyi said with a cold face, "I still have confidence in our Highness."

"Really?" Hei Lu'er raised her eyebrows lightly, "We can spread the news that you have been arrested, and see if your highness can send someone to rescue you. As long as he dares to send someone, we won't mind, Take it all."

"The tone is too loud."

"Since we insist on our own opinions, we might as well wait and see." Wu Shudan raised his eyebrows, "However, I still have to say that cooperating with us is the only way out for you."

"The only way out?" Ziyi's expression was unmoved at all, "It's really nice to say, but it's actually the only way out?"

"Hey, you can't say that. Is it the only dead end or the way out? It's hard to say now. Which one to go to depends on your own choice and your performance." Hei Lu'er tapped twice , "Seriously, you are nothing but His Highness Wanyan Qingmu's accomplices, at least there is no specific evidence to prove that you played a key role in His Highness Wanyan Qingmu's rebellion. Now you know what you know If you say it all, the crime will be lighter. Otherwise, you can only advance and retreat with His Royal Highness Wanyan Qingmu." He said while looking at Ziyi, "However, in my opinion, it is unlikely that you will betray you. Your Highness."

Ziyi did not speak, and confirmed Hei Luer's guess with his eyes. He could say something else, but he would never betray His Highness.

"Very good, very good. Since this is the case, I won't waste time on you." Hei Lu'er nodded, and waved at the guards, "Take it down!" Watching the guards drag Ziyi away , raised his chin towards Yi Qianzhang, "Just say what you want to say, don't hold back."

"Don't you despise me?" Yi Qianzhang felt the pain on his body was getting worse, he took two deep breaths, "Since you despise me, why bother to ask me questions?"

"Do you think you have the qualifications to negotiate with us? You don't have to say it, but you will never die." Ah Piao smiled slightly, "Do you feel that the injuries on your body are unbearable now? Do you feel that life is better than death? Don't worry, this is just a small trick. If you carry it on, the uncomfortable situation may be worse than it is now. Also, don't expect His Highness Aoki to come to save you, he may save his confidants, But for you, he will only throw you to us, torture you, and make your life worse than death, which is his real purpose."

"I don't need to be reminded by adults, I know it very well." Yi Qianzhang thought for a while, "That secret path didn't come after I came, but existed before. As for why there is a secret path?" I don’t know what the secret path was used for before.”

"Look, is there anyone you've seen here? Whether it was once in the palace, or later in this garden."

Ah Piao took out a few portraits and placed them in front of Yi Qianzhang. These portraits were brought over by Ah Rou before, for the purpose of identifying people.

Yi Qianzhang looked at these portraits seriously, picked three out of them, and nodded to A Piao.

"I have seen these three people, probably in this garden last month, and there are five or six other people with them. However, I only met them once, and I didn't even say hello. Ziyi was responsible for the reception, what they said, what they did, and where these people went, I don't know very well."

"Understood." Ah Piao nodded. Of these portraits, only the three selected by Yi Qianzhang are the assassins caught this time, and the others are just deceptions. They are prisoners caught before and have been locked up in prison. inside. "Your garden has a hidden yard, did you know that?"

"Hidden yard?" Yi Qianzhang was stunned for a moment, then shook his head gently, "I don't know about that, these two yards are where I am active. To be precise, the atrium where I performed in front is where I usually stay The place, the backyard is for those girls. I didn't expect..." He sighed softly, "Are they... doomed to death?"

"It's inevitable." Ah Piao nodded, "Whether it's Jin, Xia, or Liao, when they meet these congregants, they will kill the grass and root them out. Can you be sure that His Highness Aoki doesn't know about their existence?"

"Your Highness doesn't know, and can't tell the difference. We've grown up so much, and we haven't seen anything like this, have we? They've been dead for twenty or thirty years, and the adults in the family have only told us to be wary of such people, but We have never met, and it is impossible to know a person, and when we meet a person, we will see if there is a tattoo on his body, is it?"

Ah Piao nodded, "Why did you assassinate His Highness? This shouldn't be your task, right?"

"I...I..." Yi Qianzhang began to hesitate again at the critical moment. He knew that his temperament was not very good, but he couldn't help but always like to think too much. He thought for a long time, and sighed resignedly .

"It's okay, think slowly, decide slowly, we have plenty of time."

"I... overheard Ziyi's conversation with a man from outside, I..."

"People from outside? Outside the city? How did they get in?"

"It's someone sent by His Highness outside the city, but I don't know how they got in."

"What was the content of the conversation?"

"I just heard a few sentences, and I didn't start from the beginning. However, I also heard the key point, saying that His Highness sent someone to the palace to kidnap His Highness Wanyanping, and wanted to use His Highness Wanyanping as a hostage to threaten you to take over the palace. Hand it over, if you don't hand it over, they will kill His Highness Wanyan Ping. At that time, I introduced His Highness Wanyan Qingmu as a confidant, and I wholeheartedly wanted to help him accomplish his great cause, thinking that what he did was right, Wanyan Ping Your Highness is my enemy. So, when I saw His Highness Wan Yanping appearing in the garden, I knew that group of people had failed, so I came up with the assassination method out of desperation."
