Chapter 640
However, no matter how much Kim so-hyun denies the existence of truth water, it can't change the fact that he must now rely on the 'truth water' that he originally scoffed at to turn the tide of safety.
Above the high position, Ji Liuli couldn't help but be slightly stunned when she heard Jin Xiuxuan suddenly mention the truth. "Truth water?"
Truth water.
She didn't know where Kim so-hyun heard this, but it was just something she made up in order to make the threat feel comfortable admitting that she had killed Ahn Geun.
Now it is impossible for her to use something that has never existed to make Yeluzhi and Yeluke confess their crimes.
Although Ji Liuli is quite weak in the matter of truth-telling water.
But everyone who had seen Anxin confiding the truth after drinking the truth water did not have the slightest suspicion about this matter.
Of course, these 'everyone' do not include Yeluqing, who has already learned the truth from her mouth.
In other words, 'everyone' includes Jeluzhi and Jerub.
No, just when Ji Liuli was frowning in order to be able to properly respond to Kim so-hyun's request for her to use truth water, something happened that she didn't expect.
After hearing Jin Xiuxuan mention the truth, the eyes that were still a little hopeful suddenly faded.
Jeruzhi fell to the ground as if he had been struck a major blow, and muttered as if he had been dead. "It's over, it's over, I can't hide it, I can't hide it, it's dead. ”
He had seen the effect of the truth water with his own eyes, so even if he refused to admit the crime he had committed, it would be useless.
As long as Ji Liuli comes up with the truth, he will definitely be honest and original to the public about the bad things he has done that are enough to cause ruin.
Finished.
It's all over.
I'm afraid his fate is only a dead end.
As for Yeluk, he is relatively calm on the surface, but the pressure on his heart is not much less than that of Yeluzhi.
"......" Jerick opened his mouth to argue for himself, but he couldn't think of a suitable reason.
Dealing with this kind of danger, which is almost impossible to make any turnaround, Yerick, who has always prided himself on being in danger, can't help but panic.
Oops, what now?
He was still able to deal with the secret letter calmly when he handed it to Jin Xiuxuan before, thinking that no one knew the authenticity of the secret letter, and as long as he insisted on denying it, no one could help him.
But what he never expected was that Jin Xiuxuan would ask Ji Liuli to use the 'truth water' thing......
Although he was extremely reluctant to admit it, he probably had the same thoughts as Yeluzhi when it came to believing in the truth about the efficacy of water.
Because he had also seen the miraculous effects of truth water with his own eyes, Yeluk was naturally very worried that he would say something he shouldn't say after being forced to drink truth water.
If that were the case, his life, his dreams, would be destined to end in his tragic death and his stench for 10,000 years.
Jin Xiuxuan found that Yeluzhi and Yeluke's reactions after hearing the truth were a little intriguing, and she knew that she had made the right bet!
Even if the county lord of Allure can't come up with the truth, it doesn't matter.
Yeluzhi and Yeluke's reaction at this moment can be regarded as not self-defeating, and they are completely the kind of thieves with weak hearts.
Jin Xiuxuan knew that there was still one step left to completely defeat Yeluzhi and Yeluke...... That is Ji Liuli's cooperation.
He had long heard of the intrigue between the heirs of the royal family in the east, and he also found out that the regent Yeluqing had a close relationship with the lord of the alluring city.
So, he gambled again.
The Lord of the Gambling City and the Lord Regent are of the same party.
Gambling that the county lord and regent of the city will firmly seize this rare opportunity to eradicate the shame of Yeluzhi and Yeluke.
But in order to be able to get the help of Ji Liuli and Ye Luqing without fail, he had to give something first.
After thinking about it for a while, Kim so-hyun had an idea in her heart.
"The lord of Allure. Jin Xiuxuan clenched her fists at Ji Liuli, full of sincerity. Xiuxuan knows that truth water is hard to find, and she will not let the county lord use this thing in vain.
So, promise in exchange.
If the county lord is willing to borrow the truth water, he can make a request to Xiuxuan one day.
As long as it does not violate human morality and benevolence, righteousness and morality, Xiuxuan will definitely do her best to complete it.
Don't die, never stop. ”
Jin Xiuxuan's promise to Ji Liuli stunned everyone in the court, including Jin Xiulin and Ji Liuli.
You know, it's his own life that Kim so-hyun uses to exchange truth water!
"Brother Seven Emperors!" Jin Xiulin couldn't help but bite her lower lip, completely disagreeing with Jin Xiuxuan's decision. "If you want to exchange, there are many things that Korea can use to exchange.
Why do you have to risk your own life?!!"
Jin Xiuxuan reached out and patted the back of Jin Xiulin's hand, chuckling and soothing in a voice that only she could hear. "Alright, alright, my good Jiu'er, don't think nonsense.
I'm just expressing that I'll do my best to complete the entrustment of the county lord of Allure, and I don't necessarily want to die.
If you don't look at the face of the monk and look at the face of the Buddha, even if the lord of Allure really wants my life, he will definitely not be able to do it in your face.
Besides, it's impossible for the county lord of Allure to ask me to die directly.
It's better for me to be alive than to be dead, isn't it?"
"......" The corners of Jin Xiulin's mouth twitched fiercely, although she felt that Jin Xiuxuan's statement was a little inappropriate, but the boulder pressed on her chest finally fell to the ground.
Listening to the tempting deal proposed by Jin Xiuxuan, Ji Liuli on the high platform couldn't help but have a trace of helplessness and entanglement in his eyes.
She wanted to agree to Kim so-hyun's trade request immediately, because the offer was so moving.
Although she may not be able to use this promise at the time, it will be a great loss if she misses it.
But now the question is...... Where did she conjure up the non-existent truth water for Kim so-hyun?
If she had known, she should not have told a lie that would be exposed so easily.
Alas.
Just when Ji Liuli was troubled by this, Ye Luqing, who was not far away, had an idea in his heart.
"The county lord. Ye Luqing arched her hand in the face of Ji Liuli and relieved her of the siege. "This king remembers that the county lord said the truth, water is not easy to refine, and after so many years of hard work, he has only obtained two small bottles.
I had already used one bottle two days ago, so now there must be enough enough for one person left.
In other words, you can only choose one of Yeluzhi and Jeluk to drink the water of truth, right?"
"Uh...... That's right. Ji Liuli instantly thought of a countermeasure from Ye Luqing's suggestion, so she took out two small porcelain bottles from her arms, and asked Jin Xiuxuan with a chuckle. "The Seventh Prince.
Although Hongu is eager to comply with your proposal, there is only one bottle of truth water at the moment.
So Hongu thought, how about replacing another bottle of truth water with a poison that can make people's lives worse than death, but they can't die?"
