Reborn as the first poisonous concubine

Chapter 850 Rapid Change 4
Xiao Jingyao responded lightly, looked at the assassins in front of him sternly, and said word by word: "Tell this king, is it the prime minister's own intention or the emperor's intention to bribe you to assassinate this king?"

The assassins kneeling on the ground frowned slightly, muttered a few words in a low voice, and didn't know what they were talking about. Seeing that they refused to answer, Xiao Jingyao gave a low cough, and the yamen servants picked up big boards one after another, and beat them hard. .

Although the assassins came and went in the wind and rain, it was the first time they endured such a punishment. Seeing that his companions were beaten to the ground, the leader finally said: "Even if you kill us, we will die." Don’t know who issued this order? We are only responsible for getting money to do things, and the rest has nothing to do with us!”

Xiao Jingyao looked at them thoughtfully, knowing that they did not dare to tell lies, he waved his hand to make the servants stop.

And Xiao Duo, the heir son of Changsha Prince who had been quietly watching Xiao Jingyao interrogate these assassins, also spoke at this time.

"They probably don't know the details... It's just that the prime minister openly sent an assassin to assassinate the accomplished King of Luoyang this time, it's really against me, Dayin!"

After Xiao Duo finished speaking slowly, he turned his eyes to the pale-faced Luoyang prefect, and asked with a smile: "Master prefect, do you think what I said is right?"

"Your Majesty's words are true!" Luoyang prefect wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, and replied with a smile: "The emperor must have been deceived by the prime minister, so that this kind of thing happened!"

"Prime Minister Fang Shixian killed Guanglu doctor Fan Qing, and sent assassins to assassinate this king. His heart is not righteous, and his crime deserves to be punished... Your Excellency, you should understand what to do!"

Xiao Jingyao said lightly, his expression was still as calm as ever, but the Luoyang prefect could still hear the faint threat under his calm tone.

He hardly dared to hesitate for a moment, so he nodded and said: "Your official understands, come and send these assassins to death row, and choose a day to execute them!"

After he gave orders, even his legs were trembling faintly.

Although he was appointed by the emperor to be the prefect of Luoyang, and he also understood the purpose of the emperor's transfer to Luoyang, but when he saw Luoyang King Xiao Jingyao, he was afraid from the bottom of his heart!
Xiao Jingyao, the king of Luoyang, deserves to be a prince with illustrious military exploits. The awe-inspiring aura exuded from his whole body is enough to make him awe!
Even when facing the emperor, he didn't feel that way...

Now the King of Luoyang is personally interrogating these assassins, and the words of the Prince of Changsha who seem to be smiling are not smiling, he already vaguely understands that these princes... are going to confront the court!
As for him, a magistrate, he must either attach himself to the King of Luoyang, or he will die!
"Lord prefect, are you alright?" Xiao Jingyao asked with concern when he saw that the prefect of Luoyang was looking down.

The prefect of Luoyang smiled a little forcedly, but still nodded his head and replied with trepidation: "Thank you, my lord, for your concern. I'm very good, but... I can't believe it!"

Xiao Jingyao patted the Luoyang prefect on the shoulder, and said quietly: "The prefect is a person who understands current affairs, what should be done, what should not be done, I don't need to remind you more!"

"I'm waiting for the prince's order!" Luoyang prefect had already made a quick decision, and said with cupped hands.

Seeing Xiao Jingyao nodding in satisfaction, the Luoyang prefect heaved a sigh of relief, resumed his usual seriousness as an official, waved his hand and said, "Take all these assassins to me, and kill them all in the city at noon tomorrow!"
