Chapter 1433: Also a lover
"Palmis?
If it weren't for hearing this name from Li Zhong's mouth, Qin Jin would have almost forgotten about this woman, and he was puzzled, he didn't know what kind of medicine this guy was selling in his gourd.
"What's your relationship with this woman?"
At the same time as Qin Jin asked, Qin Yan also asked:
"So, that woman was sent by you to assassinate the prime minister?"
Li Zhong shook his head with a wry smile.
"How could I send a helpless woman to do such a thing? He has a family feud with the Shenwu Army and ran out secretly!"
Now it's Qin Jin's turn to be strange, he can't figure out how he can have a grudge against a Persian woman? Even if he has a feud after arriving in Persia, it is not very likely.
Li Zhong seemed to know Qin Jin's doubts, and after a pause, he said:
"Don't be surprised, Palmis's father and brother were leading the army in black, and Yusuf's crusade was killed and wounded in Anxi, including her father and brother. Therefore, it is normal to hate the prime minister to the bone!"
This was something that Qin Jin did not expect, Yousufu's Eastern Expeditionary Army actually did not suffer many casualties, mainly in the four towns of Anxi and other places, and a large part of them became prisoners.
The captives were later put into coolie camps as coolies and distributed to all parts of Anxi to do hard labor.
If Palmis's father and brother had not been killed on the spot, there is a high probability that they would have built a wall in Anthy and other places.
Of course, perhaps they will not be able to withstand the cruel and harsh living conditions, and it is very likely that they will die in the coolie camp.
"So, you're throwing yourself into the net in exchange for Palmis, but now that you're behind bars, what leverage do you have to trade with me?"
Qin Jin quickly pointed the question to Li Zhong's purpose of throwing himself into the net.
Li Zhong stretched his brows, as if he was not worried about his safety at all, and then looked at Qin Jin rather playfully, and asked:
"Isn't the prime minister curious, what am I going to use to make a deal with the prime minister?"
Qin Jin Dao:
"It's up to me to see if the chips you're trading in are useful to me!"
Li Zhongdao:
"If it doesn't work, how can I come?"
"Then listen to me!"
Li Zhong was silent for a while, and finally said:
"The prime minister may have heard that it was the deposed prince who started a rebellion in Shiguo, right?"
Hearing the words "Waste Prince" coming out of his mouth, Qin Jin frowned, he had already guessed that Li Zhongqi had something to do with the Waste Prince, but he still didn't expect that this person would be able to admit it for a Persian woman.
"Say, if the chips are right, I'll consider letting that woman go!"
Li Zhong said unhurriedly:
"I won't say a word until I see Palmis!"
Thunderbolt, Qin Yan slapped Li Zhong's face.
"When is it the prisoner's turn to bargain? Your so-called bargaining chips are all up to you, don't think that a few words can lead us away!"
Qin Yan was extremely ruthless, even Li Zhong was surprised, he rubbed his neck that was thrown and hurt, and felt that his nose was hot, and when he raised his hand to touch it, it was full of blood.
"Someone, shackle him, and put him in the execution chamber!"
Torture prisoners is the main thing, and Qin Yan plans to let this rampant guy taste what life is worse than death!
The wolf-like guards rushed up, pressed Li Zhong to the ground, put iron chains on his body, and dragged him out.
Qin Jin didn't speak, he just looked coldly at Li Zhong, who was greatly frightened, this person was indeed courageous, but he obviously overestimated himself.
"Prime Minister, don't you, don't you want to know the villain's bargaining chips, don't you want to know about the ...... related to the abolished prince?"
Li Zhong struggled and shouted loudly at Qin Jin, hoping that Qin Jin would sit down and negotiate with him.
Therefore, Li Zhong did not get a response, and although he struggled and shouted, he was still dragged into the execution room.
The soldiers in the execution chamber had been waiting impatiently, and soon the terrible screams resounded throughout the cell and beyond.
Qin Jin was not in a hurry to leave, but sat down and waited quietly.
"It seems that this Li Zhong will not confess because of torture!"
Qin Yan was surprised:
"In that case, why did the prime minister torture this person again?"
Qin Jin smiled helplessly.
"Blowing up the armory, burning down hundreds of civilian houses, and creating so much trouble for the Shenwu Army, can't you beat him up to relieve his hatred?"
Qin Yan was stunned for a while before he reacted, and he smiled and leaned back.
Unexpectedly, the reason why Qin Jin tortured this person was because of this.
"Also, torture him for half an hour over there, and then bring it over for trading!"
Qin Jin nodded.
"Bring that woman over first, let them meet for a while, and see what secrets Li Zhong has mastered about the abolished prince!"
"This guy is also strange, since he is loyal to the abolished prince, how can he betray the abolished prince because of a woman?
Qin Qin Jin sighed.
"I don't know if I'm trapped by love, I don't know how two unrelated people came together!"
Li Zhong's miserable howl resounded in the prison for an hour, and when he was brought to Qin Jin again, he had already been beaten with his skin and flesh open, covered in blood.
"You, don't be delusional, delusional that I will succumb, unless, unless you make a good deal with me, let go, let go......"
The intermittent Li Zhong suddenly stopped talking, he stared at the door dumbfounded, the Persian woman at the door was quite beautiful, but her face was haggard, and her face was full of disbelief and fear.
"You, you're still here?"
Li Zhong closed his eyes, and when he opened them again, he became much gentler.
"They, no, didn't embarrass you, did they?"
"I'm all right, but you've suffered for me......"
The Persian woman whimpered and cried, and Qin Yan stared at the big eyes, surprised by the change in the two. The woman, Palmis, was also scared before, but she adopted a soft-confrontational and uncooperative attitude.
Now, after she met Li Zhong, she seemed to be a different person.
And Li Zhong, what a proud and powerful person, he actually spoke so softly, as if the voice was louder and the speed of speech was faster, and the woman would be scared away.
Palmis strode in front of Li Zhong and stretched out his hand tremblingly, wanting to caress the man's fleshy chest, which was marked by whip marks and repeated ironing of the soldering iron.
She had never seen a person so tortured that his slender fingers could not be caressed for a long time.
"Why do you do this, let them torture you like this? I bear the hatred of my father and brother, and I will never live alone in this world, and if I cannot take revenge, I would rather die and go to heaven to follow them. But now that you're here, even if I want to see my father and brother, I can't leave without worry......"
