Do you know: I am Yuan Wenshao

Chapter 287 Interrogation

After Yuan Wenshao finished speaking, he sneered and said: "Go ahead, capture them alive. If you resist, there is no need to hold back."

If he hadn't said that, the soldiers would have been very worried when they took action.

And saying this can also put some pressure on the female assassin.

"Yes!"

Qin Li responded and ordered his guards to take action.

"Don't come here!"

Li Xuan looked at the guards slowly approaching, turned her hand, put the dagger across her neck, and said loudly: "If you come closer, I will kill myself. Then you will never get any news from me."

Yuan Wenshao heard this and sneered: "Do you really think I don't know your identity? If you want to commit suicide, just commit suicide."

A flash of panic flashed in Li Xuan's eyes. Could it be that Yuan Wenshao had really guessed her identity?

That shouldn't be the case. Only her maids and Lu Xiuping knew about her sneaking out.

How could Yuan Wenshao know who she was?

"Xixia sent assassins to sneak into the army with the intention of assassinating the governor. His death was in vain," Yuan Wenshao said.

He didn't know that the assassin in front of him was the Xixia princess.

The reason why I concluded that he was from Xixia was because although the other party spoke Dazhou dialect, it sounded a bit awkward.

Of course, he was just guessing. The assassins in front of him and those sent by Xixia were not sure yet. They were just testing.

When Li Xuan heard this, she thought that Yuan Wenshao really knew her identity, and she lost her voice: "Since you know my identity and you dare to attack me, aren't you afraid of causing a war between the two countries?"

"Haha, Xixia sent assassins to infiltrate the army. It's too late to sever the relationship now. How can they admit it?"

Yuan Wenshao didn't want to waste time, so he said coldly: "Do it!"

Li Xuan was stunned for a moment, and then she realized that Yuan Wenshao didn't know her identity at all, but just guessed that she was sent by Xixia.

If Yuan Wenshao knew that she was the eldest princess of Xixia, it would be impossible for him to say such a thing.

Seeing that those soldiers were only two or three meters away from her, Li Xuan came to her senses, took off her veil, and shouted: "I am the eldest princess of Xixia, if you dare to do anything to me, my imperial brother They will definitely send troops to avenge me!"

"and many more!"

Yuan Wenshao stopped the soldiers, looked at Li Xuan and frowned: "You said you are the Princess of Xixia, is that the Princess of Xixia? I also said that I am the Emperor of Xixia."

In fact, he already believed it in his heart. He didn't expect it at first because he didn't think about it at all.

Now that Li Xuan's identity has been exposed, thinking about it, it is quite possible.

Moreover, the other party's appearance was not Han Chinese at first glance, it was full of exotic customs.

The most important thing is that she is very beautiful.

In a patriarchal society, how could such a beautiful woman be allowed to serve as an assassin?

Even if there is, wouldn't it be better to use it as a honey trap?

Moreover, he had heard rumors before that the eldest princess of Xixia was known as the most beautiful woman in Xixia.

"you…"

When Li Xuan heard what Yuan Wenshao said, she was so angry that she wanted to get angry, but fortunately she calmed down quickly and said, "Send me to the Xixia envoy, and you will naturally know whether my words are true or false."

"No, what if you take the opportunity to assassinate the Xixia envoy and cause a war between the two countries? If you can't prove your identity, don't blame me for being rude." Yuan Wenshao said lightly.

"Before I sneaked in, I hid everything I had on me under the big tree by the river west of the camp. Send someone to find it. There is something to prove my identity there," Li Xuan said quickly.

When Yuan Wenshao heard what Li Xuan said, he basically believed it in his heart, but he said calmly: "You just surrender and I will send someone to find you. If it is true, I will naturally send you back. But if you break into the military camp at night, I will report this matter to Your Majesty, and I will ask you Xixia for an explanation when the time comes."

"No, if I just surrender, wouldn't I be at the mercy of others?" Li Xuan frowned.

"The idiom is a good one. Don't worry. If you are really a Xixia princess, you will definitely trigger a war between the two countries. I cannot bear this crime. If you refuse to be arrested, it means that you have something evil in your heart, but Don't blame me for being rude!" Yuan Wenshao said calmly.

Li Xuan hesitated for a moment, threw the dagger in her hand on the ground, and said, "Okay, I'll catch you without mercy. If you dare to mess around, my brother will definitely not let you go."

"Tie them up!" Yuan Wenshao said.

"and many more!"

Li Xuan said in disbelief: "You still want to tie me up?"

"Don't worry, as long as you prove that you are the Princess of Xixia, we will naturally release you." Yuan Wenshao said.

Li Xuan hesitated for a while, stretched out her hand and said, "Okay."

Yuan Wenshao watched the soldiers tie up Li Xuan and said, "You wait first, I will arrange for someone to find her."

After saying that, he took Qin Li out of the camp.

"Does anyone else know about what's going on here?" Yuan Wenshao asked.

"Going back to the Marquis, according to the Marquis's previous instructions, I only called the personal soldiers. My subordinates were worried that the patrol soldiers would be exposed when they passed by, so they sent people to stop the patrol soldiers nearby. Now there are all the Marquis' personal soldiers near the camp. There are no Others." Qin Li said.

"That's good."

Yuan Wenshao pondered for a while and said: "Send a few people to the place she mentioned to bring the things back, and explain that not a word of what happened tonight will be leaked."

"Yes!" Qin Li responded.

After Yuan Wenshao finished explaining Qin Li, he returned to the camp.

"Hey, it's too tight and it hurts. Please loosen it up."

Li Xuan's hands and feet were tied, and she was sitting on a stool when she saw Yuan Wenshao coming in and shouted.

His expression was as if he was commanding a slave.

Yuan Wenshao stepped forward with a smile on his face, reached out to pinch her chin, lifted it up, looked at her delicate and pretty face with a smile, and said softly: "You are now a prisoner, why can't you see the form clearly? "

Li Xuan was stunned by Yuan Wenshao's sudden action. When she came to her senses, she tilted her head back and avoided Yuan Wenshao's hand. She glared at Yuan Wenshao angrily and said, "How dare you do this to me? I will tell you when I get back." His Majesty the Emperor of Zhou Dynasty!"

Yuan Wenshao approached again, ignoring Li Xuan's resistance, and came close to her ear. Li Xuan could even feel Yuan Wenshao's breathing.

"Then you have to go back!" Yuan Wenshao said softly.

Li Xuan said in a panic: "How dare you? When I came, someone knew about it. If I haven't gone back at dawn, someone will come to His Majesty the Emperor of Zhou to ask for someone. Can you afford it then?"

"is it?"

Yuan Wenshao chuckled and said: "As long as the Xixia envoy is not a fool, it is impossible for you, a princess, to do this. Did you sneak out?"

Li Xuan said: "Even if I ran away secretly, my Xixia envoy also knows where I went. As long as I don't go back, he will definitely ask the Emperor of Zhou for help."

"hehe…"

Yuan Wenshao smiled and suddenly took action, knocking her unconscious.

Princess Xixia is a big fish and she must know many secrets of Xixia.

Yuan Wenshao had been thinking about how to find evidence of collusion between Han Zhang and Xixia, but he didn't expect that the Xixia princess would show up on her own.

As for what Li Xuan said, Yuan Wenshao was not worried.

After just passing the test, Yuan Wenshao has determined that Princess Xixia ran away on her own.

Even if the Xixia envoy guessed where she went, there was nothing he could do as long as he did it cleanly and couldn't find any evidence.

Of course, there wasn't much time left for him.

The disappearance of the eldest princess of Xixia in the Zhou Dynasty will inevitably cause a war between the two countries, and Zhao Zongquan will definitely try his best to find her.

However, after being in contact with her for a while, Yuan Wenshao has already seen that this Xixia eldest princess has no scheming intentions, and it should not be difficult to ask questions from her.

As long as you get what you want, let the person go.

After waiting for a while, Qin Li brought over the things Li Xuan had hidden.

The things were very simple, just a set of men's clothes and a little silver.

In addition, there is a gold medal with complex patterns engraved on it, and the four words "Princess Jing'an" are engraved in the middle. This token can completely prove Li Xuan's identity.

Yuan Wenshao immediately asked Qin Li to transport Li Xuan and these things out of the military camp and send them to the other courtyard of Feiyun Village.

……

Lu Xiu waited for the whole night, but Li Xuan still didn't come back.

And the people sent out didn't find any clues.

Lu Xiuping could no longer sit still and quickly contacted the officials of Honglu Temple and asked to see Zhao Zongquan.

Seeing how anxious he was, the officials of Honglu Temple did not dare to delay and reported him immediately.

Zhao Zongquan thought Lu Xiuping wanted to see him to discuss the alliance, so he summoned him directly.

"The foreign minister has met His Majesty the Emperor of Zhou Dynasty." Lu Xiu saluted.

"You don't need to be polite, you will be given a seat if you come." Zhao Zongquan waved his hand.

"Thank you very much, His Majesty the Emperor of Zhou. However, the foreign minister's request to see you this time is because he has something urgent to ask for help from the Emperor of Zhou." Lu Xiuping said anxiously.

Zhao Zongquan was startled and asked, "What's the matter?"

"Our princess is missing, please..."

"what!"

Zhao Zongquan heard this and before he finished speaking, he stood up suddenly and exclaimed: "Isn't your princess always at Honglu Temple? Why did she suddenly disappear?"

Lu Xiuping felt bitter in his heart and said: "Our princess has always heard that Bianjing is prosperous and has admired her for a long time. She sneaked out of Honglu Temple yesterday, but she didn't return all night."

"Ah…"

Zhao Zongquan was angered when he heard this: "Do you think I am a fool? A princess slipped out of Honglu Temple. Your people didn't notice. Are the guards at the entrance of Honglu Temple all blind?"

Zhao Zongquan even suspected that Xixia was trying to make trouble.

Of course, he didn't know the word "touch porcelain", but that didn't stop him from thinking so.

Princess Xixia had always worn a hijab before, even when she entered the palace to meet him.

Who knows what Princess Xixia looks like, but now she comes to him and says that Princess Xixia is missing. This is not porcelain.

"this…"

Lu Xiuping said awkwardly: "Our princess has learned some martial arts since she was a child. She used to sneak out of the palace by climbing over the wall."

Zhao Zongquan asked suspiciously: "Is everything you said true?"

"It's absolutely true. If His Majesty the Emperor of the Zhou Dynasty doesn't believe it, let someone inquire and you will find out that this is not a secret in Xixia. As long as our princess can be found, the foreign minister will definitely report the truth to the king, and there will be a generous reward." Lu Xiuping said .

"Come, tell King Huan to come." Zhao Zongquan ordered.

Regardless of whether this matter is Xixia's plan or not, we still have to look for it before we have any evidence.

If it is true that something happened to Princess Xixia in the Great Zhou Dynasty, Xixia will definitely not give up, and it may even trigger a war between the two countries.

Not long after, Zhao Ceying rushed over. When he heard that the Xixia Princess was missing, he also knew the seriousness of the matter.

Zhao Zongquan directly asked Zhao Ceying to mobilize the five city troops and city defense battalions to cooperate with Lu Xiuping to investigate the whereabouts of Princess Xixia.

Zhao Ceying ordered Ming and Lu Xiuping to leave the palace, and summoned the generals of the five-city military and horse divisions and city defense camps with the imperial edict.

They hired a painter and asked Lu Xiuping to find someone to describe the appearance of the Xixia princess, and asked people from the Five Cities Military and Horse Division and the City Defense Battalion to search the city with the portrait.

At the same time the city gates were ordered to be closed.

The troops and defense battalions of the five cities were dispatched together, and the city gates were sealed. Everyone was panicked for a while.

The people were so frightened that they wanted to go home. Unknown officials in the city thought something had happened in the palace and closed their doors one after another.

When Yuan Wenshao asked Qin Li to send Li Xuan to Feiyun Village, he sent people to keep an eye on the movements in Bianjing.

After learning that the city gates in Bianjing were closed in broad daylight, Yuan Wenshao knew that he should be looking for Li Xuan.

Waiting until night, the city gate in Bianjing was not opened, so Yuan Wenshao felt relieved.

But he knew that there was not much time left for him.

At night, Yuan Wenshao secretly left the military camp and went to Feiyun Village.

……

"Where's Yuan Wenshao? I want to see him. Let him come to see me."

Li Xuan's hands and feet were tied, and she was lying on a bed, feebly shouting toward the door.

When she woke up, she found herself in a very luxurious room.

Her hands and feet were still tied, and there was nothing strange about her body, which made her feel at ease.

However, no matter how she shouted, no one paid attention to her.

There was no movement at all outside, as if there was no one at all.

She tried many times, but there was no way to untie the ropes binding her hands and feet.

I don't know how long it took, but the door suddenly opened and two maids came in carrying food.

However, no matter what she said, the two maids remained silent, as if they were mute.

Li Xuan refused to eat, and the two maids still took the food and left without saying anything.

At the end of the day, Li Xuan had not had enough water and was shouting all the time. Her voice was already hoarse and she was exhausted.

Li Xuan fell asleep in a daze. She didn't know how long it had passed before she was awakened by the sound of the door opening.

As soon as Li Xuan opened her eyes, she saw Yuan Wenshao walking in with a smile.

"I slept very soundly," Yuan Wenshao said.

"What exactly do you want to do?" Li Xuan said hoarsely.

"I just want to ask you a few questions. As long as you tell me, I will let you go. If you don't tell me..."

Yuan Wenshao folded his hands in front of his chest and looked up and down Li Xuan's body with a squinting look.

"How dare you! I am the princess of Xixia, who came to Dazhou to marry me. If you dare to mess around, neither Xixia nor Dazhou will let you go."

Li Xuan struggled to shrink to the corner of the bed, as if staying away from Yuan Wenshao would give her a sense of security.

Yuan Wenshao stepped forward, put his hands on the bed, got closer, and said, "Do you want to try me?"

"Get lost!" Li Xuan glared and wanted to kick Yuan Wenshao.

Yuan Wenshao stepped back, hid, and said coldly: "My patience is limited. Let me ask you a question first. If your answer dissatisfies me, I will have your clothes taken off first."

"Why did you want to infiltrate the army?"

He didn't think Li Xuan sneaked into the military camp to inquire about the military situation.

It's not like the two armies are facing each other now, so what can be learned.

Putting aside this possibility, Li Xuan was probably running towards him.

Li Xuan hesitated for a moment and said, "It's because you led the troops to take away Lingzhou City. I wanted to see if I had a chance to kill you."

"Come here!" Yuan Wenshao said coldly.

After Yuan Wenshao finished speaking, two maids walked in from the door. They bowed and bowed without saying a word, waiting for Yuan Wenshao's instructions.

"Take off her clothes." Yuan Wenshao said calmly.
