After a long confrontation, He Nan finally spoke first. He had been carefully recalling the situation when he and Chi Zebao met. If the other party wanted to silence him at that time, he would not have had time to call Wei Kui and Yu Ruyi to come out for help. It seemed that Chi Zebao had no reason to lie to himself. He indeed had no murderous intention.

"Mr. Chi is here under His Highness's order?"

Chi Zebao nodded, and he had nothing to deny: "His Highness asked me to take you back alive, so I will not kill you at all."

"You must have had a hard time hiding in Tibet, but... His Highness didn't even issue a wanted notice." Chi Zebao looked gloating.

After hearing Chi Zebao's words, He Nan didn't feel any disturbance in his heart. He has been high-profile enough all the way, and he doesn't seem to care about whether he is wanted at all. What's more, He Nan has also been very clear during his years in Shanhe Mansion. The wanted notices posted at the city gates everywhere, that is, It's just a superficial act, giving an explanation to the superiors and serving as a warning to the people - no one can catch the criminal these days if he hides in the deep mountains and old forests, so Shanhe Mansion, which has a high crime detection rate, is also deeply favored by His Majesty. Li Yushi was highly valued, and Li Yushi was a very popular minister - in the past, the prince's division was held by the prime minister, but the emperor made an exception and assigned this responsibility to Li Zhanchun.

Yu Ruyi knew a little bit about Lou Zi who was exposed by He Nan, so she didn't think it was strange to hear the title "Your Highness", but Wei Kui was different - His Highness had to be Wang Sun at least. Noble, He Nan's grandson is really as he boasted to himself, "the people he offends are much more serious than the ones he offends." Wei Kui didn't regret boarding He Nan's pirate ship, and he wasn't afraid of the so-called His Highness. However, he was really curious about what relationship He Nan had with "His Highness", but he would have to wait until later to ask. .

"Your Highness is so sure that you will be able to catch me?" He Nan was puzzled by this point. Judging from the wisdom of the fifth prince, he is definitely not the kind of person who can do useless things. If he wants to do it, he must make a foolproof plan. Even if he is playing riddles, he will leave clues everywhere for others to refer to. But just sending some people to inquire blindly, How can I be sure to bring myself back?

"Chi has heard for a long time that Prime Minister He Fu is smart, talented, and is Li Yushi's beloved disciple. How come he can't figure out the reason?" Chi Zebao lightly twirled the two beards on his lips and smiled slightly. This sounds nice, but it's not a compliment in any way.

Even if you are smart and talented... you still need evidence to make inferences. The information He Nan got was nothing more than the following:

First, Qi Dan needs me to live; second, Qi Dan needs me to return to the capital; third, even if Chi Zebao is not there, Qi Dan can be sure that I will definitely receive the message he wants to convey to me; third, Qi Dan can be sure that I will receive the message he wants to convey to me. Fourth, the most important point is that Qi Dan is certain that I will go back voluntarily after receiving the message.

Inferring from the only four bases...the difficulty is no less than "There is a restaurant every ten miles and an inn every twenty miles. Asking the total profit of all stores within a hundred miles today".

But He Nan was different. In the process of this "reasoning", his desire to seek knowledge and win was unprecedentedly huge, let alone the opponent. If Chi Zebao wanted to kill him, He Nan could kneel down and beg for mercy without hesitation, but he would never say to Chi Zebao, "Please give me some more hints."

In other words, He Nan can accept the contempt from others for his personality, but he will never allow others to despise his intelligence.

And He Nan's inference process is also traceable - Qi Dan wanted to return to the capital alive to witness something "with his own eyes", something related to himself and him. In fact, there is no need for this matter to be conveyed to you by a certain person, but it is a major event that will be spread through various channels sooner or later, enough to spread throughout the country, and Chi Zebao's role in it is nothing more than It speeds up the process of getting the information, and he is another guarantee for taking him back.

"So... what happened that made me voluntarily, or did Qi Dan think that I would voluntarily return to the oil pan on the mountain of swords?" He Nan had already made a conclusion in his mind.

"He Fucheng...have you reached a conclusion?" Chi Zebao also waited for a while, and after finishing the cup of tea in front of him, he asked.

In fact, He Nan thought of several outcomes, but it was impossible for him to say to Chi Zebao, "Let me think about it for a while," so he chose the one he thought was the most likely and asked tentatively: " engagement?"

"Oh?" Chi Zebao's eyes changed. He now looked at He Nan with admiration. Yes, the content of the letter written by Qi Dan himself while the master and his servant were in the Acacia building that day was about "he wants to marry Zhu Zhaoer as his concubine". Chi Zebao also read the contents of the letter under Qi Dan's nose and tried to flatter him. So he had nothing to hide now. He nodded and praised: "He Fucheng... he really deserves his reputation."

This answer can be guessed based on only some details, at least Chi Zebao couldn't do it if he asked himself. What he was even more curious about now was how He Nan did it.

Even looking at Chi Zebao's interested face, He Nan had no intention of answering the other party - the other conclusions he came up with were not good things, such as Qi Dan's plan to kill Li Zhanchun, clear up Shanhe Mansion, and Killing his imperial brother, etc., this is the only thing that can be said.

However, He Nan's way of pretending to be mysterious and fighting with his eyes closed really shocked Chi Zebao.

"Well..." Chi Zebao pondered and waited for a while. When He Nan didn't respond, he took out a letter from his arms and handed it to the other party's hand. "Since Prime Minister He Fu doesn't want to say anything, Chi will not ask any more questions, but Chi will still give it to you for the things His Highness the Fifth Prince entrusted to me."

This letter had been in Chi Zebao's arms for three months, and now it was finally in He Nan's hands. When Chi Zebao submitted this letter, he even felt a sense of ritual...

He Nan didn't have any special reaction. He took the letter and opened it. After listening to the hazy conversation between the two, Wei Kui and Yu Ruyi became very interested in the content of the letter, and both of them glanced at He Nan's hand.

The content of the letter is also very concise, with a total of eight words: "Chongjiu, Beijing, King Zhao, Naifei." These eight words perfectly summarize the time, place, people and events... I have to say, The fifth prince is really concise and concise, and every word is worth a lot of money.

Of course, Chi Zebao didn't know which girl the fifth prince, King Zhao of the Sheng Kingdom, wanted to take as his concubine, but He Nan knew that there was only one girl who could be related to both of him at the same time. .

"Well..." He Nan read the content of the letter over and over again, and after putting the letter paper under the sun and looking through it carefully, he found that there were indeed only these eight words on the paper, and there were no other words. Got a clue, "Something's wrong..."

"What is He Fu Cheng doing?" Chi Zebao also saw He Nan's strange behavior. He was the famous spy chief of Tianbian Guards. Of course, he also knew about this "writing on paper with special ink to achieve communication." "Secret Code" method, but the fifth prince wrote these eight words in front of him, so the content is what is visible to the naked eye. "There's nothing wrong. There are only these eight words on the paper, and Chi has confirmed them repeatedly."

"I'm not saying this is wrong..." He Nan didn't know how to explain it to Chi Zebao, but he thought of something else, so he changed the subject and said: "Before sending you here, His Highness the Fifth Prince, did you Have you given instructions like, 'He must tell me this personally'?"

"Well... I said it." Chi Zebao also pretended to remember, "His Highness said that he wanted to tell you these words in person, and he was looking forward to your expression after hearing these words. .”

However, Chi Zebao also recalled some of the words he expressed his loyalty to the fifth prince - "If you don't kill He Nan, I will kill someone." So his own expression became a little strange.

"So... why are you still playing tricks with me and telling me these words in advance?" He Nanxu asked with squinted eyes, "Aren't you afraid of His Highness punishing you?"

"Because I also want to see what kind of expression you will show." Chi Zebao also gave a very convincing reason, "Although I don't know what the relationship is, but I really Quite curious..."

"Then what did you see from my expression?"

"After reading the letter, you... are much more confident than the Fifth Highness who wrote this letter at the time."

Chi Zebao didn't know where the little He Nan had the confidence, but he couldn't deny what was reflected in his eyes. He has also served in the Tianbian Guard for nearly twenty years, rising from a small guard to the position of one of the four general managers. With his ability to observe words and emotions, there is absolutely no mistaking He Nan's confidence. Pretended.

And he thought that the reason why He Nan was more confident than His Highness was because of the huge difference in their demeanor - after His Highness handed over the matter to him, he stood by the window and looked far into the distance, holding the hands on the wooden edge of the window sill. He couldn't hide his excitement and trembling, but the He Nan in front of him showed no emotion at all, and his expression never changed even for a moment.

He Nan poured Manager Chi a cup of tea very politely. Obviously, behind this move was the fact that he was about to say something that Mr. Chi didn't like to hear: "Mr. Chi, after much thought, I still think it's best not to go back with you..."

"What do you mean?" Chi Zebao's expression suddenly changed.

"That's the literal meaning." He Nan said with a smile, "I accepted the letter... but I really can't go with you."

"Don't be so shameless..." Chi Zebao's voice also deepened, veins bulged on the backs of his thin hands, and his anger soared to the extreme. This is difficult for He... I won't listen to my own words and discussions, so I have to do it myself? If I had known earlier, I should have kidnapped him and put an end to it.

"I said...I, no, go." He Nan spoke word by word as if he was deliberately trying to arouse Chi Zebao's anger.

"You!" Chi Zebao practiced two-hand kung fu, and was especially good at making claws with his hands. At this moment, he suddenly rose up, overturned the table in front of him, spilled soup and water all over the floor, and reached for He Nan's throat with his right hand.

The atmosphere in the private room suddenly became tense, and Chi Zebao's hand couldn't get any closer to He Nan - his five fingers dug into Wei Kui's thick arm and dug out five cum. The bleeding hole comes.

And there was a sharp sword on his neck, but it was placed on his own neck from behind - the person who drew the sword was the guard who was watching He Nan in the toilet before.

"Mr. Chi, even if you want to take me away by force, it's too late now, right?" He Nan patted the tea splashed on his clothes, knowing that he was sure of victory.
