Chapter 666 Prison
The two people who were most suspicious were the two people guarding the courtyard gate, who were the attendants of the second king. They had a reason for neglecting the guard because they were helping the Sixth Princess to get the kite, and they did not expect that General Meng would be assassinated.Everyone in the palace was interrogated, especially the young people who had just come in. The interrogation was even more careful, and everyone was interrogated separately. Xie Jue did not lie, saying that he went to relieve himself in the middle of the journey. If he did not tell the truth, The attendant who was with him said so, and he was suspected.

The Northern Barbarians are all outspoken, and their interrogation methods are straightforward and they will not lie.Not to mention asking the accompanying attendants how long it took him to relieve himself, so Xie Jue felt relatively at ease.He got to know the Northern Barbarians during his training and felt that their character was really simple. Lying was a major crime in the Northern Barbarians.

Everyone's testimonies were gathered at the case table of the Second and Sixth Kings. Except for the two guard attendants and the maid next to the Sixth Princess, there was almost no suspicion. Either someone entered the palace, killed someone and then left, but at this time No one entered or left the palace, so the six kings concluded that the murderer was in the palace.

Immediately afterwards, Xie Jue and his attendants were locked in a cell again. The two kings were furious. They would rather kill by mistake than let go. If the murderer did not come forward and admit it, he would kill all the attendants in the house. This incident naturally aroused the concern of the six kings. But the two kings could no longer care about the objections from the princess and the princess, they just wanted to find someone to settle the score with.

Xie Jue and the attendant watched helplessly as the two kings unleashed their dogs to kill the two guards who had neglected their duties. The screams resounded through the prison, and the ferocious wolf dogs chewed up all the bones, and blood spurted out. The walls were full, and Xie Jue's ears were filled with their shrill screams, and the bloody smell that hit his face was nauseating.

This is the first time since he came to Fox City that he has faced the cruelty and ferocity of the enemy so directly. If he makes a wrong move, he will become the wolf dog's meal.

Father, eldest brother will never find him!

The attendants yelled in fear that it was not him, he did not kill anyone, and begged them to let him go. Xie Jue pretended to be scared and told the attendants that he did not want to die, that he missed his parents, his brother, etc. The attendants were already trembling with fear and cursing "kill" The person who killed General Meng.Xie Jue secretly observed the cell, pretending to be scared while wondering why the Northern Barbarians imprisoned the two people. They were obviously interrogated separately, and even if they were to be imprisoned, they were to be imprisoned alone. Could it be that someone was listening to them behind their backs?
Xie Jue was not sure, but he thought of one thing. The eldest prince was now on the battlefield, and the two kings were wooing the six kings. The eldest prince's advisers often came to the palace. The six kings seemed not to take sides and had their own plans in mind.He killed General Meng mainly because he was afraid of leaking the border defense plan, and also to alienate the second king and the sixth king.

"When a Yanyang man dies, he dies. Why should we be imprisoned? We were not the ones who killed him." The Northern Man servants became more and more frightened, fearing that they would lose their lives. "Are we all going to be buried with him?"

Xie Jue also deliberately pretended to be listless and said, "I don't know, no one cares about us even if we are despicable, but it is indeed strange that the Yanyang people died in the Sixth Prince's Mansion. If he dies, who will benefit the most?"

Xie Jue was good at tempting, and the attendant took the bait, "I know, it's the eldest prince. Maybe he sent someone to kill him. His advisers often come to the Sixth Prince's Mansion, so they must also know about the rebellion of the Yanyang people. "

"But why did the king want to kill the Yanyang people? If he provides information, we can win the war." Xie Jue pretended to be confused.

"You're stupid. You didn't know something when you first came to Fox City. The eldest prince and the second prince are the most promising heirs to the throne. We, the sixth prince, are indifferent to fame and fortune and never interfere in their struggles, but each of them wants to win over the sixth prince. If the Yanyang people provide information and we win, the credit belongs to the second young master. How could the eldest prince be willing? We must destroy their cooperation."

Xie Jue suddenly realized, "So that's it, but how does the king know that Yanyang people are in the mansion?"

"Could it be that the Sixth Prince informed him that he was swaying on the surface but actually chose the Great King?" "This is untrue. The Sixth Prince has a kind heart. How could he plot against his brother? But... I have never met the First Prince. The prince is brave and good at fighting. He is the hero of our northern barbarians. We often hear the heroic stories of the two kings in Qianling Town. If he becomes the king of the northern barbarians, our northern barbarians will definitely be able to conquer Ningzhou, and we will no longer have to fight in fear. Living in a world of ice and snow." Xie Jue's words were filled with admiration for the second prince.

"You admire the Second Prince so much, why do you come to the Sixth Prince's Mansion to serve him?"

"I have no choice. I will go wherever the manager arranges for me to go!" Xie Jue said, "The status of people in Qianling Town is too low in the imperial court. The manager also warned us again and again not to tell others that we can speak Yanyang dialect. Otherwise, it will lead to disaster. We can only be cautious in our words and actions and be dumb."

"No wonder you don't like to talk usually, but you can still speak Yanyang dialect?" The attendant was surprised.

Xie Jue's goal was achieved. If there was really someone listening behind him, it must be someone from the second king. His goal was also achieved, "Yes, our Qianling Town and Ningzhou herdsmen are separated by the Shaling River. The town There are many women who were kidnapped from Ningzhou to be wives, and many people in Qianling Town can speak Yanyang dialect. I can still understand their words, but I don't know much about them."

"It's amazing!" the attendant asked, "Is Yanyang really like the rumors, with bright sunshine, flowers, cattle and sheep everywhere, and is it as warm as soaking in hot water?"

"I don't know, but the weather in Qianling Town is very good and warm in spring and summer. Fox City is so cold. I have never felt so cold."

This is probably the most talkative time Xie Jue has had since coming to Fox City. He is usually like a mute in the palace, doing his own thing peacefully.After being punished several times, he became even less talkative. Just because he didn't like to talk, the princess arranged for him to serve in the study. The people who served in the study were very important with their mouths.

This attendant is not usually such a talkative person. He may have been frightened today. When people are nervous, they talk more.

As long as there were any suspicious confessions, the two kings would let the dogs bite them alive. Everyone was locked in a cage and watched helplessly as the wolf dogs bit their throats and gnawed at their flesh.

More and more people broke down, roared, and became angry. Xie Jue also followed the trend and redressed his grievances. The air in the cage was not circulating, and the air was full of the smell of blood and corpses. It was cold and damp, and Xie Jue actually developed a fever. It was so fierce that his consciousness soon became a little blurry, but he didn't dare to really faint.

Once a person faints, he cannot help but say or do anything. If he speaks fluent Yanyang dialect, he is simply seeking death.

So Xie Jue was cruel to himself. Even if he was unconscious, he would take a thin knife and scrape the flesh on his waist one by one to stay awake!
