Haishi, Yuzhong City.
The famous prince Liang Meng, who was tied up by Wu Huada, walked into a room under the escort of Zi Shu and Huo Yi.
As soon as Liang Meng entered the house, he saw a figure in white.
Before he could see the man's face clearly, he felt a sharp pain in the crooks of his legs.
"Kneel down."
Amidst the two scoldings, Liang Meng became unsteady and fell to his knees on the ground.
As the son of a famous prince, Liang Meng had never been so humiliated before.
He immediately turned his head and glared at the two people behind him.
"I am the crown prince of Tuyuhunming. How dare you insult me like this! Aren't you afraid that my father will lead his troops to attack the Tang Dynasty?"
Zishu and Huo Yili ignored Liang Meng, but bowed to Qin Ming and said:
"Sir, we have been brought here."
Qin Ming nodded slightly.
Immediately, he picked up the two portraits from the table, threw them on the ground, and asked coldly:
"Who gave you these two portraits?"
Liang Meng stared at Qin Ming with his eyes and said through gritted teeth:
"You are Qin Ming, right? You were the one who killed Lou Ming?"
Qin Ming frowned and asked:
"My patience is limited, you'd better answer my questions first."
Liang Meng curled his lips, glanced at Qin Ming with some contempt, and then sneered:
"Although I am a prisoner, you have no right to interrogate me based on your status."
From the moment he saw the portrait, Qin Ming understood that the chase this afternoon was not an accident.
Tuyuhun's real target is not Daozhang Sun, but himself.
If he hadn't been assassinated early this morning, he might have followed Pei Song to Lanzhou.
If that were the case, even if he could survive the raid, it would probably be extremely dangerous.
Within one day, he suffered two "assassinations" in succession and killed eighteen members of the special team.
No matter how good-tempered a person is, he will go berserk.
At this time, Liang Meng's lack of cooperation caused Qin Ming, who was already on the verge of an explosion, to explode.
"Zi Shu."
"My subordinate is here."
"Cut off one of his ears."
"Here."
Zi Shu, who was filled with anger, immediately took out the dagger from his waist and swung it towards Liang Meng's right ear.
Liang Meng was shocked and instinctively wanted to dodge to the left.
However, Huo Yi, who was standing on his left, held his head tightly.
"How dare you...ah..."
Then, Zishu "raised the knife and dropped it", and a bloody ear fell to the ground.
Before yesterday, Qin Ming would definitely not have given such an order.
But it's different now.
After all, just an hour ago, he endured the huge pain and mended the broken corpses of the eighteen personal guards with his own hands.
Qin Ming glanced at Liang Meng on the ground and said calmly:
"Can you answer my question now?"
Liang swallowed hard.
He understood that he was in trouble.
If you continue to speak harshly, I'm afraid the other ear will not be saved.
[Where there is life, there is hope. As long as I can go back alive, this revenge will be avenged sooner or later. ]
Thinking of this, Liang Meng's eyes flashed with a trace of cruelty.
"I said, that portrait was given to my father by a man from Tang Dynasty."
"He also revealed your whereabouts to us in advance."
When Qin Ming heard this, his eyes narrowed and he asked:
"who's that person?"
Liang Meng shook his head and said:
"I don't know his name either. My father only said that he was a member of the Tang Dynasty Shandong noble family and the talker of Longyou."
Seeing that Liang Meng's expression didn't look like he was lying, Qin Ming asked again:
"Then why do you want to listen to his arrangements?"
Liang Meng replied:
"He promised us that as long as we kill you, they will do their best to stop Emperor Tang and send troops to attack Tuyuhun."
Just like that, Qin Ming asked and Liang Meng answered.
Soon half an hour passed.
After getting all the information. Qin Ming stood up, dusted himself off, and then walked towards the door.
Upon seeing this, Liang Meng stretched his neck and shouted to Qin Ming:
"When will you send someone to negotiate terms with my father?"
Qin Ming paused when he heard this and said:
"Zizhu, I'll leave this man to you. Cut off his head and put it on top of the Jingguan."
After saying that, Qin Ming walked out of the room.
Zi Shu looked at Qin Ming's back and said respectfully:
"I obey my orders."
When Liang Meng heard the conversation between the two, his liver and gallbladder suddenly burst into tears, and his eyes showed a ferocious look.
"Qin, as you say..."
Liang Meng only said one side of his words and then stopped suddenly.
Blood was pouring from the corner of his mouth. At the last moment of his life, he looked down at the dagger stuck in his chest, his eyes filled with regret.
[If I had known this, I shouldn't have accepted this mission in the first place! ]
Huo Yi put away the dagger and said calmly:
"Boss Rat, I'll leave the rest to you. I'll escort the young master back."
Zishu nodded and said:
"Be careful on the road."
Huo Yi sighed and went out to catch up with Qin Ming.
After walking a long way.
Huo Yi hesitated and asked:
"Sir, why didn't you spare his life just now and exchange it with that famous king for information about the person behind the scenes?"
Qin Ming shook his head and said:
"First of all, we can't tell whether Liang Qucong will use personal names casually."
"Secondly, since there is a detailed operation in the army, Duke Wei will investigate it to the end. By then, following this line, we will also know who is behind the scenes."
"Thirdly, those dead brothers are still lying in the yard. How could I let them leave alive?"
Huo Yi's body trembled, and he bowed to Qin Ming and said:
"Thank you, sir."
Qin Ming patted Huo Yi on the shoulder and said:
"Okay, let's go back first."
"Here."
Qin and Ming had just walked to the door when a figure rushed out from inside.
Qin Ming frowned and asked:
"What happened?"
Xu Gou was stunned for a moment, then he leaned into Qin Ming's ear and whispered:
"Sir, someone in the house hanged himself."
With that said, Xu Gou took out a piece of paper from his sleeve and handed it to Qin Ming.
"This was found in his room. I asked the young master to take a look at it."
Qin Ming took the paper and glanced at it.
There are not many words on the paper, only two sentences.
The first sentence is, I, Li San, can't help you, and I am willing to die to apologize.
In the second sentence, my little sister works as a maid in Changsun Mansion.
........
A quarter of an hour later.
Qin Ming came to the deceased's residence.
He squatted down and looked at the marks on the neck of the corpse. After confirming that the deceased had indeed committed suicide, he raised his head and said to the people in the room:
"Bury him alive and well, and don't tell anyone what happened today."
Xu Gou and others responded in unison.
.......
