Chapter 604: Confession
Guo Ba looked at Xiao Diyuan with sleepy eyes, smiled faintly, and wrote on the paper: "Lord Wang, I have thought about it carefully these days, indeed, it is not good for me to hide that secret, if I say it, it will at least be of some use to the family of the three princes of Zhaoguo and Zhaoguo, but do you know why I know this truth but refuse to tell the truth?"
Xiao Diyuan sat down on the stool in a very natural posture and said, "I don't know." ”
Guo Ba smiled self-deprecatingly again, and wrote: "Because in fact, once I say it, your situation will become very embarrassing, and it can even be described as 'dangerous', aren't you afraid?"
Xiao Diyuan: "I'm not afraid, you can say it." ”
Guo Ba walked closer in the direction of Xiao Diyuan, grabbed the iron fence in his hand, and quickly wrote on the paper with a faint smile: "If I tell the truth, you may not be able to save your life." ”
Xiao Diyuan pursed his lips and smiled: "I have my own way to deal with it." ”
So Guo Ba wrote: "Then you wait, I'll write down the whole process and hand it over to you." ”
Xiao Diyuan: "I hope you don't have lies in it." ”
Guo Ba: "There is no such thing as a lie. ”
Xiao Diyuan nodded and said, "You can write it." ”
Guo Ba smiled and picked up the pen very chicly, but he didn't write it immediately, but lowered his head and pondered.
Xiao Diyuan could see that he was a person with a lot of ink in his chest, but he didn't know why he had to be an errand in the first place.
So Xiao Diyuan asked before he could figure out how to write: "You should have read for a few years when you were young, right? Why did you find an errand and kill for others?"
Guo Ba raised his eyes to look at him and wrote: "When I was a child, I did often go to the private school next door to listen to classes, so I knew some words, but my family was very poor, and there was no money for me to participate in the scientific examination, so I went out to do things at a young age, but maybe I always envied the readers, and then every time I received a salary, I would go to the bookstore to buy a few books to read, so I read a lot of books over the years." ”
Xiao Diyuan nodded.
Guo Ba bowed his head slightly this time and began to write what he wanted to write seriously.
He clearly wrote on the paper: "Guo Bafei is my real name, my real name is Zou Twelve, a native of Minzhou, in May of the 38th year of the Zhao Dynasty, I and three other guards were ordered to go to Zhaoguo to do one thing. At that time, we didn't know what we were going to do, and when we arrived at Zhaoguo, we met with the two people who were already waiting there, and we realized that we were looking for an opportunity to take the three princes of Zhaoguo away.
When I learned of this, I was very surprised, and hurriedly asked them, 'Why did Your Majesty do this?', but they did not answer me, but only said that it was Your Majesty's will, and that it must be done according to Your Majesty's wishes, otherwise none of us would have returned to Akebonoke.
So the five of them went their separate ways, one was responsible for bribing the people in the palace to get the news, some was responsible for maintaining timely contact with the monarch on the Akebono side, some was responsible for keeping an eye on the main entrance of the palace, some was responsible for keeping an eye on the other doors of the palace, and one was responsible for managing our relationship with one of the ministers of Zhaoguo.
We stayed in Shokoku for thirteen days, and when we learned that the Empress of Akira was going to take the three princes to the Royal Lodge in Daqingshan for a vacation just before June, we immediately gathered together to discuss countermeasures.
After one night, we discussed a feasible plan, so the day after the Empress Zhaoguo and the three princes went to Daqingshan for a vacation, we quietly sneaked to the vicinity of Daqingshan Royal Villa.
We lurked there for a day before we decided where and how to get started.
In those days, we gradually gathered together in the woods outside the room where the queen and the third prince were staying, occasionally climbing up the trees and watching through the windows.
Soon, we seized the opportunity of the queen to bathe in the bathing room in the afternoon and immediately took action.
It was one of my accomplices who entered the queen's chambers in wolf's clothing, and I was in charge of watching the wind outside, and there were my accomplices on the ground and in the trees not far behind me, and we received them together.
The Third Prince was asleep at the time, and he did not cry when my companion who entered the house carried him out, which brought great convenience to our operation, and we immediately created the illusion that the Three Princes had been eaten by wild wolves, and when everything was done, we took the Three Princes back to Akebono and quietly delivered him to a man sent by the Emperor to connect.
After handing over the three princes to the man, I asked the man what he wanted the three princes to do, and the man only said that he would hand them over to His Majesty, and we didn't need to know the rest, and then he gave each of us a reward, and left with the three princes in his arms.
I didn't go home that day, fearing that what I had done would cause trouble for my family, so I stayed overnight in a hotel in the suburbs.
In the middle of the night, six men suddenly broke into my room, took me away without saying a word, and soon took me out into the wilderness.
There, they punched and kicked me, beat me to death, cut out my tongue, poured oil all over me, spread firewood around me, and lit a fire.
I was so panicked that I wanted to run away, but I didn't even have the strength to stand up, and when I tried to scream, my tongue was cut out again, and I couldn't make any sound, so I could only lie there and watch the fire burn around me and on my body.
They stood there for a long time until they saw me struggling to be motionless.
I was completely unconscious, but when I regained consciousness I found myself lying on a clean, soft bed/with a man in his forties applying medicine to my face.
This man later told me that he had noticed me because he had seen a fire in the field, and that his home was halfway up another mountain, and that he had gotten up in the middle of the night to relieve himself, but he had not expected to see this scene, so he hurried to rescue me as soon as the group was gone.
I was rescued by him, and I left after recuperating from my wounds in his house for half a month.
I went back there a year later and gave him all the money I had made in a year.
After that, I wandered around like a soulless ghost, despairing several times to jump into the river, but each time I didn't die. Later, I thought that God still wanted me to keep this life to tell the truth of the matter, so I didn't have any thoughts of seeking death.
I wandered around for a few years, and you can imagine how much disgust and disgust a person like me would have, so I didn't have a long job.
Later, by chance, I came across the ruined temple and stayed there.
I lived in that ruined temple for ten years, until your people moved there.
You must know what happened next. ”
After writing it, Guo Ba read it himself first, and then handed it to Xiao Diyuan to read.
