After hearing Hei Luer's question, Ziyi's mouth, which was still so sharp just now, was tightly closed again.
Ah Piao glanced at Ziyi, then at Yi Qianzhang, then turned and raised an eyebrow at Hei Lu'er and Wu Shu Dan.
"When I was chatting about casual things, I was very happy, but it was too colorful. When it was time to talk about serious things, I became boring again and refused to speak." Wu Shudan got tired from sitting, stood up and walked around twice, stopped In front of Ziyi and Yi Qianzhang, "You should know very well what your current situation is like. As I said just now, it is impossible to expect your Highness to save you."
"As long as you dare to think, everything is possible." Ziyi said with a cold face, "I am quite confident in our Highness."
"Really?" Hei Lu'er raised his eyebrows slightly, "We can spread the news that you have been arrested and see if your Highness can send someone to rescue you. As long as he dares to send someone, we won't mind. Take it all as ordered."
"The tone is a bit too loud."
"Since we each hold our own opinions, we might as well wait and see." Wu Shudan raised his eyebrows, "However, I still have to say that cooperation with us is your only way out."
"Is it the only way out?" Ziyi's expression was unmoved at all, "That sounds nice, but is it actually the only way to die?"
"Hey, you can't say that. It's hard to say whether it's the only way out or the only way out. Which one you go towards depends on your own choice and your performance." Hei Lu'er knocked twice. , "If you really think about it, you are just the accomplices of His Highness Wanyan Qingmu. At least there is no concrete evidence to prove that you played a key role in His Highness Wanyan Qingmu's rebellion. Now you know what you know If you tell them all, your guilt will be lighter. Otherwise, you can only advance and retreat with His Highness Wanyan Qingmu." He said while looking at Ziyi, "However, in my opinion, it is unlikely that you will betray you. Your Highness."
Ziyi said nothing, but confirmed Hei Luer's guess with his eyes. He could say something else, but he would never betray his Highness.
"Very good, very good. Since that's the case, I won't waste my time on you." Hei Lu'er nodded and waved to the guards, "Take him down!" He watched the guards drag Ziyi away. , raised his chin towards Yi Qianzhang, "Just say what you want to say, don't hold it back."
"Don't you despise me?" Yi Qianzhang felt that his injuries were getting more and more painful. He took two deep breaths, "If you despise me, why do you need to ask me questions?"
"Do you think you are qualified to negotiate terms with us? You don't have to say it, but you will definitely not die." A Piao smiled slightly, "Do you feel that the injuries on your body are unbearable now? Do you feel that life is worse than death? Don't worry, this is just a small trick. If you carry on, the uncomfortable situation may become more serious. Also, don't expect Aoki-dono to save you, he may rescue his confidants. But for you, he will only leave you to us, and torturing you and making your life worse than death is his real purpose."
"You don't need to remind me about this, I know it very well." Yi Qianzhang thought for a while, "That secret passage didn't appear after I came here, but existed before. As for why there is one I don’t know what the secret passage was used for before.”
"Look, are there any people you have seen here? Whether they were in the palace or later in this garden."
Ah Piao took out several portraits and placed them in front of Yi Qianzhang. This portrait was brought here by Ah Rou in order to recognize the person.
Yi Qianzhang looked at these portraits carefully, picked out three of them, and nodded to Ah Piao.
"I have seen these three people, probably in this garden last month, and there were five or six other people with them. However, I only met them once, and I didn't even say hello. They Ziyi was responsible for the reception. I don't know what was said, what was done, and where these people went."
"Got it." Ah Piao nodded. Among these portraits, only three that Yi Qianzhang picked out were actually the assassins caught this time. The others were all deceptions. They were prisoners caught before and were already in prison. Inside. "This garden of yours has a hidden courtyard, did you know?"
"Hidden courtyard?" Yi Qianzhang was stunned for a moment and shook his head gently, "I don't know about this either. These are the two courtyards where I move around. To be precise, the atrium in front of me where I perform is where I usually stay. This place and the yard at the back are all for those girls. But I didn’t expect..." He sighed softly, "They...are they bound to die?"
"This is inevitable." A Piao nodded, "Whether it is Jin, Xia, or Liao, when encountering these sects, they will be eradicated. Can you be sure that His Highness Aoki does not know the existence of these people?"
"Your Highness doesn't know and can't tell the difference. We've never seen anyone like this when we've been growing up, right? They've been dormant for twenty or thirty years, and the adults in the family have only told us to be wary of such people, but We have never met, and it is impossible to know a person, and just look at whether he has a tattoo when we meet him, right?"
Ah Piao nodded, "Why did you want to assassinate His Highness? This shouldn't be your mission, right?"
"I...I..." Yi Qianzhang began to hesitate again at the critical moment. He knew that his temper was not very good, but he couldn't help but always liked to think too much. He thought for a long time and sighed with resignation. .
"It doesn't matter. Think slowly and decide slowly. We have plenty of time."
"I... overheard the conversation between Ziyi and a person from outside. I..."
"People from outside? Outside the city? How did they get in?"
"It's someone sent by His Highness from outside the city, but I don't know how they got in."
"What was the conversation about?"
"I only heard a few sentences and didn't listen from the beginning. However, I also heard the key points, saying that His Highness sent people to the palace to kidnap His Highness Wan Yanping, and wanted to use His Highness Wan Yanping as a hostage to blackmail you into taking the palace. Hand it over. If you don't hand it over, they will kill His Highness Wanyan Ping. At that time, I took His Highness Wanyan Qingmu as a close friend and wholeheartedly helped him accomplish his great cause. I thought what he did was right. Wanyan Ping Your Highness is my enemy. So, when I saw Your Highness Wan Yanping appearing in the garden, I knew that those people had failed, so I came up with the assassination method out of desperation."
