The assassin who assassinated His Highness Prince Ning looked at the three people sitting in front of him and couldn't figure out what they were doing without sleeping so late at night and torturing him. He recalled the previous interrogation process, and everything about this assassination had been explained very clearly.
"You guys..." Assassin Qiao Sheng hesitated and asked cautiously, "It's so late, is there anything else you can do?"
"Don't be nervous, you are an assassin, you are so cowardly!" Bai Meng smiled and swung his whip at Qiao Sheng, "We all came here all the way, what kind of people are we each other? , they all know in their hearts, stop pretending to be here and show your true nature!"
Qiao Sheng looked at Bai Meng and nodded slightly. The man relaxed and was completely different from his previous state.
"That's right!" Bai Meng saw that he was very knowledgeable and nodded with satisfaction, "You don't have to be nervous. I came to you this time to ask how you met Mr. Chi Hong and why you should listen to him. If so, I will assassinate His Highness Prince Ning."
"Of course it's for money to do things!" Qiao Sheng spread his hands and shrugged, "What else could it be for?"
"Qiao Sheng, there's no need to pretend to be confused. We already know your origins." Bai Meng raised an eyebrow at him and said with a half-smile, "The second most skilled guard beside Mrs. Teng, Just give you money from a random person and you will do something?"
When Qiao Sheng heard Bai Meng's words, he immediately became nervous. He looked at the three of them and stammered, "You... how did you..."
"You have sent people to Xijing over and over again, causing trouble in Xijing City when you have the opportunity, and you still want to keep us in the dark?" Bai Meng sneered, "Your Madam Teng's abacus is too good, isn't it?"
"..." Qiao Sheng was silent for a long time, and then he breathed a long sigh of relief. He stretched his legs, found a position that made him feel more comfortable, and nodded towards Bai Meng, " Now that you already know, there is no need for me to hide anything. The Mr. Chi Hong you are talking about, if nothing else happens, should be Madam’s biological brother who has been missing for many years.”
"No accident? Probably?" Bai Mengyi frowned, "So, you're not sure?"
"According to the girl close to the madam, the second night after Mr. Chi arrived at the old house, the two of them stayed alone for an hour or two. During this period, the madam's cry came from the house, howling loudly. That kind of thing. The day after they finished talking, Madam’s eyes were swollen, but her whole person was full of energy and energy. It was completely different from the lifeless look she had been in for so many years, as if she was a different person.” Qiao Sheng sighed and looked at Shen Haolin, Shen Cha and Bai Meng, "Maybe others don't know, but as the people closest to Madam, we know that the knot in Madam's heart for many years has been untied. And Madam's heart Knot, that’s the only one.”
"The lost brother?" Seeing Qiao Sheng nodded, Bai Meng touched his chin and looked at Qiao Sheng carefully, "When did you serve as a guard for Mrs. Teng? Have you ever seen the child you lost?"
"I worked as a guard for Madam ten years ago, but I have never met the young master." Qiao Sheng shook his head, "When Madam's brother was lost, I was still very young, and I only vaguely remember such a thing. It happened. Because this matter caused a big fuss, almost everyone in the clan knew about it. My wife has been depressed since that time, and few people can see her sincere smile. "
"Nor her husband and daughter?"
"No." Qiao Sheng shook his head firmly, "Mr. Teng is a lucky man. He has a good background, married a capable wife, and gave birth to a beautiful daughter. He doesn't have to do anything to be comfortable. to live this life."
"Is it comfortable?" Bai Meng smiled sarcastically, "It is indeed quite comfortable. He died in such a comfortable way."
"This is also a very good home, which most people can't ask for." Qiao Sheng couldn't deny Bai Meng's ridicule, "Actually, at the beginning, we were very grateful to Mr. Chi. Over the years, No one, no matter a man or a woman, can make my wife so happy and joyful. Every time she comes back from meeting him, she is in a particularly good mood."
"At the beginning?" Shen Cha frowned slightly, "Why at the beginning? Now you don't appreciate him?"
"He is a nuisance now. Ever since Madam brought him back to the old house, there has never been a moment of peace and purity in the old house. He has been tossing him to pieces. Not to mention anything else, just this day every day. Three meals a day, the cook was tossing around a lot. He said he wanted stewed mutton, but then he said mutton was too hot. Just after he said he wanted to have barbecue in the evening, he said he wanted something lighter and wanted some soup. He changed his mind. It's time right now. It's only when the cook is about to finish cooking and prepare to start the meal that he tells the cook that he doesn't want to eat this thing and has to change it to another one." Qiao Sheng looked very angry, "If it's once or twice, Everyone can tolerate it, but he is like this almost every day."
"Mrs. Teng doesn't talk about him?"
"Not only don't you talk about him, but you also support him! Not only that, if the food cooked by the cook is not in line with Mr. Wei Chi's taste, then the cook will be scolded by the madam. Although the madam always speaks tactfully and does not scold easily, But every word she said was like a knife, cutting into the other person's body one by one. At this time, Mr. Chi is the happiest."
"What do you mean?" Bai Meng was stunned for a moment, "You mean, seeing you getting scolded makes him happy?"
"That's more or less what it means." Qiao Sheng looked at Bai Meng, "I once heard it with my own ears. My wife asked Mr. Chi why he did this. He said that these servants are all bitches and they have to deal with them every now and then, otherwise they won't be able to do this. He will respect his master, but over time, he may rebel against his master. The wife also said that we are all people who have been with her for many years and are loyal. Such a situation will not happen. In order to refute, He cited many cases, most of which involved servants betraying their masters by relying on their old age. My wife was persuaded by him and let him do whatever he wanted, and then stopped caring."
"Isn't that more than that?" Bai Meng poured a cup of tea for Qiao Sheng and handed it over, "Looking at your indignant look, there must be something else, right?"
"This young master..." Qiao Sheng thanked Bai Meng, finished the cup of tea, and wiped the tea stains from the corner of his mouth, "He is really not a good guy. Don't talk about us. The three of you will be angry if you meet him." I had to dance around and stayed up most of the night. I found a gong from nowhere and started beating it all over the village. I wouldn't stop until I woke up everyone."
"Why is this?" Bai Meng couldn't laugh or cry, "This...isn't like what someone of his age would do."
"We think so too." Qiao Sheng sighed, "He is like a child who has not grown up in front of his wife. He wakes everyone up, saying that he can't sleep and wants to find someone to play with him. .”
Bai Meng, Shen Haolin, and Shen Cha looked at each other in confusion. They were now more and more suspicious that there must be a big problem with Mr. Chi's mind.
