Yu Meng put his hands behind his back and paced back and forth in front of the assassin.
The assassin was lying on the ground, and could only see a pair of deerskin boots dangling in front of his eyes. His originally calm mind gradually became uneasy.
His "confession" was carefully studied word for word, and it was flawless. It was impossible for the eldest prince to have doubts without reason.
The behavior of this captain of the guard is really abnormal.
Before the assassin could figure out the reason, Yu Meng suddenly stepped on his head.
"Whose dog dares to bite His Highness the Crown Prince!"
The assassin's heart tightened. The eldest prince's chief of bodyguards was actually the prince's man!
"If you tell me the truth, I will give you a good time; if you are stubborn, I promise to teach you that death is worse than death!"
The assassin remained silent.
Yu Meng raised his foot and stepped on his swollen back, crushing it several times.
The assassin clenched his teeth and did not even hum.
"It seems that you won't cry until you see the coffin, but it doesn't matter. If you don't tell me, I will help you find a master!"
Yu Meng turned around, wrote a "confession" on the table beside him, blew two breaths, then picked up the assassin's bloody hand and pressed it hard.
The assassin tried to see clearly what was written on the paper, but unfortunately Yu Meng deliberately blocked it and he could not see the specific content clearly.
After Yu Meng finished all this, he raised his hand and was about to send the assassin away when suddenly a guard walked in, lowered his head and said, "Sir, His Highness asked you if you have finished the interrogation."
Yu Meng had no choice but to stop and said: "After the trial, this guy is indeed a fraud!"
The assassin wanted to retort, but before he could say anything, Yu Meng tapped his mute point.
Yu Meng put away the confession and put it in his arms, and then told the guard: "The confession has been obtained. If he disobeys, he will be sent away directly!"
"yes!"
After hearing Yu Meng's words, the assassin immediately became quiet.
Two quarters of an hour later, Li Jingye and Yu Meng arrived at the execution chamber at the same time.
Li Jingye stared at the lifeless assassin on the ground for a while, and then suddenly said: "He also confessed that he is the Fourth Brother's man?"
The assassin was stunned.
Yu Meng said quickly: "This kid was very tough at first, and it took a lot of effort for my subordinates to get him to tell the truth. I didn't expect that he turned out to be the fourth prince's son, and my subordinates were also very surprised!"
The assassin was tortured and beaten for a whole day and night. His mind was not clear, and he did not expect that Yu Meng and Li Jingye would actually stage such a trick to deceive him. In desperation, he denied it: "Nonsense, I am..."
However, he quickly sensed something was wrong and shut up abruptly after saying only four words.
Wasn't my mute acupuncture point tapped? When did the acupuncture point be unlocked?
He was about to bite his tongue and kill himself, but Yu Meng stopped his jaw first.
Although the assassin didn't finish what he said, the unfinished meaning was obvious.
Seeing how Li Jingye tried to "defend" Li Jingxiao, Li Jingye still didn't understand that the person behind the scenes was really the good fourth brother who he thought was harmless to humans and animals!
"The Fourth Brother is really a good trick!"
First, he assassinated his second son and wronged him, and now he assassinated himself and wrongly accused his second brother.
If the second brother hadn't been too arrogant, I'm afraid the two of them would have fought to the death as he wished, and he would have finally come to reap the benefits!
Yu Meng never expected that the assassin's master was really someone else, the fourth prince, whom his master had never paid attention to.
The fourth prince's hiding place was so deep that he actually deceived everyone.
"Your Highness, what should I do with this bastard?"
What he meant was to chop it into pieces and feed it to the dogs.
His whole life's fame almost fell into the hands of this bastard!
Li Jingye thought of the way Li Jingxing treated the assassin, and sneered: "Keep an eye on him, don't let him die!"
It might come in handy someday!
There was deathly silence in the assassin's eyes. Not only had he exposed his master, but he also wanted to die. To describe it as ashes was nothing short of an exaggeration.
...
In the Prince's Mansion, Rong Yunyun heard that Li Jingxing was grounded by Li Zetian, and he was secretly happy. The Prince really couldn't beat the fourth prince, and they had made the right bet.
Chiyang also learned about Li Jingxing's grounding, and heard Caixia say that Li Jingye was attacked and the eldest princess miscarried. She immediately thought that Li Jingxing's grounding must be related to the attack on the eldest prince. She felt uneasy and went to the study in person. One trip.
Li Jingxing heard Xiao Fuzi calling Chiyang asking for an audience, and said, "Let her come in."
Chiyang was surprised to see Li Jingxing's indifferent attitude and asked tentatively: "I heard that the eldest prince was assassinated?"
Li Jingxing nodded and said, "Father suspected that it was Gu's fault, so he banned Gu's feet."
"What about the eldest prince?"
Chiyang was worried that Li Jingye had been instigated by Li Jingxiao and would stalk Li Jingxing as a murderer.
If the two brothers fight to the death, they will only benefit Li Jingxiao, the real culprit behind the scenes.
"Brother was suspicious of Gu at first, but now he should have found out the truth."
Li Jingxing saw the curious look on her face and said proudly, "I have taught you the method we used before, and it should be effective."
Chiyang understood.
[I am becoming more and more intelligent. 】
Li Jingxing was a little dissatisfied. It sounded like he was praising himself, but it always sounded a little unpleasant to his ears.
Xiao Fuzi's voice sounded outside: "Your Highness, the eldest prince is here."
Chiyang knew that they were going to talk about business, so he saluted and said, "I take my leave."
"No need, go sit in the back for a while." Li Jingxing looked at the screen. He had no intention of hiding these things from Chiyang.
Chiyang thought for a moment and realized that he really wanted to join in the fun. He said "Thank you, Your Highness", then stood up and walked behind the screen.
Soon, Li Jingye stepped into the study with a solemn expression. He cupped his hands and apologized to Li Jingxing without any hesitation.
"I wronged my second brother before. I hope my brother will forgive me."
Li Jingxing quickly waved his hand: "I don't blame brother, I just blame the murderer for being cunning. Brother, please sit down."
After Xiaofuzi served him a cup of hot tea, he left and closed the door thoughtfully.
Li Jingye asked: "What are you going to do, second brother?"
Li Jingxing understood what Li Jingye meant, but now was not the best time to reveal everything.
"Brother, the fourth child now has the trust of the father. If you and I reveal this matter rashly, not only will the father not believe us, but he will probably think that you and I jointly suppressed the fourth child, which will be counterproductive."
Li Jingye also had this concern, so he did not go up to Heaven to listen immediately, but came to discuss with Li Jingxing first.
"I've always treated my fourth child well, so he just did it to me. He also did it to a pregnant woman. It's really hateful!"
It is not easy for the eldest princess to get pregnant. They got pregnant for the first time after two or three years of marriage, but Li Jingxiao caused a miscarriage and injured her body. I am afraid that it will be even more difficult to get pregnant in the future.
If he hadn't considered it inappropriate, he would have wanted to go outside the fourth prince's residence and yell in his face!
