Stop acting, Your Majesty, the queen knows you're faking it

What Chi Xinian said was merciless.

And Huo Linhai didn't dare to bet lightly on whether she would do anything.

She was right, the death of a few little people who had nothing to do with her had no effect on her.Even, after the news that she has taken down the bandit leader is passed on, the living people will still be grateful to her.

What about the dead?
Just kidding, how can there be no dead people in the bandits?

The relatives of the deceased can only bear the pain alone.Moreover, as long as they are a little more sensible, they will understand that this is not the fault of the bandits, but the fault of the violent and vicious bandits.

At that time, she has nothing to lose.

And he couldn't get anything.

After thinking about it again and again, Huo Linhai still didn't choose to gamble with the lives of his brothers.

He gritted his teeth and nodded in response to Chi Xinian's words: "I promise you, one life for another, as long as you let my brothers and those hostages go forever, I can return them to you."

"Let go forever? That's impossible." Chi Xinian shook his head, "They have to promise that they won't do anything that endangers the people and the court before I can let them go. If they do it again, I'll kill them."

This request is not too much.

Pursing his lips, Huo Linhai still nodded in response: "Okay, no problem."

But after a short pause, he frowned again and said, "But even if it's agreed, we have to set up an exchange place, right? Our lives are now in your hands. If you get the hiding place of those hostages, you can If you want to kill us, what should we do?"

"Then what do you mean?" Chi Xinian raised his eyebrows.

"You let them out first, and I'll tell you the location." Huo Linhai said decisively.

"No." This time it was Chi Xinian's turn to refuse, "I let them go, what if you don't tell the truth."

Neither of them recognized the other's method, and both sides could not help falling into silence.

After a long time, Chi Xinian spoke again, breaking the silence: "Well, don't rush to discuss the hostage matter. Tell me first, how did you get rid of my maidservant's stalking?"

She didn't forget that when she came out alone to pretend to search, she arranged for Xinyi and others to watch Huo Linhai closely in secret.

It took less than a day, how did he discover them and get rid of them?
"That maid of yours is reckless, but she's not good at following people." Huo Linhai didn't really want to tell Chi Xinian this, but he didn't even want to talk to Chi Xinian.

So, after hesitating for a moment, he still reluctantly replied: "It was the first time she visited the Pingxing government office at night, and I noticed the movement she made.

"At that time, you hadn't formally appeared in front of the government to reveal your identities. Therefore, I just said something to mislead you, and there was nothing superfluous.

"However, since that time, I have been interested in your maidservant.

"I heard that you picked her up on the battlefield a few years ago, and fought with you from birth to death for several years. Later, until you entered the palace, she followed you all the way, never leaving.

"Right now, if you come to Pingxing to suppress the bandits, she will still follow you, and you have entrusted her with such an important matter as investigating the Pingxing government office.

"This is enough to prove her status in your heart.

"Thinking that she may continue to work for you in the future, I naturally have already played tricks on her.

"From the moment I walked out of Pingcheng and came to an empty place with no one, I noticed that she was quietly following me."
