345 Interrogation
Although he dislikes the Great Elder, but at the moment he can say anything, the Great Elder's reputation in the Wu Clan is still very high, just look at him as soon as he speaks, there are no other elders chirping crookedly.
Situ Lang said in a relaxed tone: "Young Master Yun, then I-"
Yun Qingchen replied very politely: "The princess said that Young Master Situ kindly invited her to be a guest, so naturally there will be no dissent, so Young Master Situ doesn't have to go, stay here to deal with the housework of the Wu clan with peace of mind!" β
Situ Lang was stunned, and only nodded after half a sound: "Oh, okay, then the grass people are waiting for the result of the princess's interrogation, I hope that my Wu clan will not have such a rebellious person." β
Yun Qingji smiled indifferently, with a polite appearance: "Everything is waiting for the princess to interrogate!" β
Glancing at the eight elders, Yun Qingchen frowned again, "Young Master Situ, I heard that there are nine elders of the Wu clan, and what about one more?" β
Situ Lang looked at him with some embarrassment: "Here's the thing, there is another one who is the Ninth Elder, who is served by the Holy Son, but he usually doesn't come forward, so he ......"
"In that case, let's take these eight to the princess first!"
Yun Qingchen took eight people back to Chenxi's side, in the work he went to, Chenxi had let people clean up the battlefield, those corpses or something, all dug a big pit and buried them together, of course, the few people they lost were dealt with separately, placed first, the ancients paid attention to returning to their homeland, so she promised to let some of the individuals who escorted the dead back to Xicheng after Tianming to settle down,.
Chen Xi sat leisurely in the middle of the room, and the eight elders were placed in the opposite room and waited.
The bloody aura also impacted everyone's senses, causing the eight originally somewhat proud elders to restrain a little. In the past, I really saw the elite soldiers under the name of Princess Chiyang up close.
Judging from the eyes of their Jianghu people, the martial arts of these elite soldiers are not very high. But it's really better than an ordinary army! The rigorous standing posture and breath are two points better than the second-rate characters in the rivers and lakes.
"Eighth Elder, the princess will see you first."
The Eighth Elder was quietly stunned, thinking that it must be the Great Elder Seer! Follow the escort out of the room where Chenxi was sitting and confront the woman who was standing tall. Before he entered the door, Chenxi changed his shape, and when he wanted to interrogate the suspect, he naturally had to make a stressful gesture.
But. These eight elders looked thin, and they were really unpredictable little old men. Even wonder if the living conditions of the Wu people are not very good.
The Eighth Elder still saluted quietly very politely: "The grass people see the princess." β
Chenxi glanced at him lightly: "Eighth Elder, sit down and talk!" β
The Eighth Elder's eyes fell on the chair beside him, and he secretly said in his heart: This Princess Chiyang really interrogated them as suspects! The layout of this seat is similar to that of the yamen, and of course, he doesn't care about sitting down.
"Eighth Elder, this princess doesn't like to beat around the bush, so let's ask directly! Why do you think the people of the Remnant Sun Sect came to the Wu Clan to assassinate this princess? This princess didn't make a big deal of it when she came to the witch clan, but she was invited by your young master to go on a trip. It stands to reason. There shouldn't be many people who know that this princess is in the witch clan. β
"Princess. I really don't know about this achievement, maybe someone found the princess on the road, and the people of the witch clan won't talk nonsense. β
"Okay. Then let's not check that for the time being, let me ask you, why didn't anyone from the Wu clan come out to help when this princess was besieged? Is it possible to understand that someone in the Wu clan wants this princess to die, so he has a heart-"
The Eighth Elder hurriedly stood up and defended himself very wrongfully: "The princess misunderstood, we just didn't hear any movement outside, and since the Great Elder came back, we celebrated tonight, and everyone drank a lot of wine......"
Hmph, that's a good calculation!
Chenxi's sharp eyes stared at the Eighth Elder, the Eighth Elder was very safe at first, and gradually became a little unbearable, how did this woman raise her? Xiao Da Nian is a little girl, which actually makes him, a person who is dozens of years old, have a feeling of being seen through.
Suddenly, the Eighth Elder's expression was shocked, but he could only be surprised for a moment, and then he was a little distracted, and looked at Chenxi blankly, "Princess-"
"Well, write me everything you know!"
"Yes."
The corners of Chenxi's lips raised a pleasant arc, quietly waiting for the statement paper written by the Eighth Elder.
Although she is a little tired, she is still not enough to make a person obedient at close range! Liuyun Cliff's half-year cultivation is not in vain, a group of black-hearted old guys, just wait to be frank one by one!
He wrote a morning and evening look, the eight elders are the people on the side of the seven elders, and the situation is similar, that is, the seven elders and the people of the Remnant Yang Sect have formed an alliance with each other, and they want to use the rights of the Wu Clan to assist the Remnant Yang Sect to expand their rights, correspondingly, the Remnant Sun Church will provide them with a superior life, fine clothes and food, and even let them separate the Wu Clan and live in a prosperous big town.
However, he did not mention who the ancestors of the Remnant Sun Sect were, as he did not know; Moreover, there is no mention of the matter of the Great Elder, perhaps, the matter of the Great Elder is not clear to many people!
Chenxi let go of the eight elders after getting some news, they are all some old gingers, and they can't be controlled for too long, otherwise they will be suspicious in advance.
After the Eighth Elder woke up, he glanced around with some confusion, there was nothing, but he seemed to feel something invade his body for a moment before. Poisoning or something shouldn't be possible, the elders of their Wu clan have Gu worms on their bodies that can take drugs, ordinary poisons can't deal with them, and it will be more and more difficult for others to play Gu on them.
Is it a delusion?
"Eighth Elder, you seem to be constantly evading the achievements of this princess, I asked you who is the most capable of hooking up with the people of the Remnant Sun Sect, and you keep not answering? After thinking about it for a while, there is no answer yet? β
Yes? He's distracted! The Eighth Elder's expression was grim, and he replied carefully: "Princess, the grass people didn't escape, they really don't know. β
"Don't you think there is no one in the witch clan who is suspicious?"
"The grass people really haven't found out that anyone has a bad heart for the princessβ"
"However, Situ Mian, the son of the Seventh Elder, seems to have a covetous heart for this princess, I heard that he wants to torture me after grabbing me?"
The Eighth Elder's expression changed greatly, and he was drenched in a cold sweat, he had also heard of this, and it was Situ Mian who personally told the Seventh Brother, saying that if he wanted to keep Gong Chenxi's life, he would have to play first......
However, how could this matter be known to Princess Chiyang herself?
Situ Mian's kid is nowβcould it be that she sent someone to ruin that kid's life? The Eighth Elder was getting more and more cold sweat, and his shirt was soaked, there was such a fierce character around Princess Chiyang, wouldn't it be difficult to kill others?
Chenxi looked at him with satisfaction, bowed his head and didn't dare to look at her, "Eighth Elder, are you acquiescing?" β
"No, although the child is a little lascivious, he will never dare to move his thoughts to the princess! Don't listen to rumors, princess! β
Chenxi snorted coldly, "Is it a rumor that I know in my heart, you go down, and ask you in vain." Later, I'll ask Situ Mian and his father about it. β
The Eighth Elder wiped his sweat, returned to the opposite room, and glanced at the Seven Elders who walked out with some concern, Seventh Brother, take care!
The third elder's expression changed when he saw him come back, and he couldn't help but ask, "Eighth brother, what did Princess Chiyang say?" β
Yun Qingchen glanced at them: "The princess has an explanation, in order to prevent you from colluding confessions, so, please stop talking in this room." If you have anything to say, wait until the princess is done interrogating! β
The third elder glared at Yun Qingji, but he was not too presumptuous.
As Yun Qingchen thought, they never wanted to go against the entire imperial court, even if they thought about some brocade clothes and jade food, but they were not fools, and they knew that there were some things that they couldn't do.
Collaborating with the Remnant Yang Sect is just the right of the rivers and lakes, and the imperial court and the ordinary rivers and lakes are not related to each other, so they agree with the choice of the Seven Elders.
After about half an hour, Chen Xi interrogated the eight elders as usual, among which the seventh elder and the great elder interrogated the longest, because the two of them knew the most inside information.
After the interrogation ended, Yun Qingji didn't guard those people, and returned to Chenxi's side, and found that her expression didn't seem to be very good, "Princess, are you doing it again?" β
Chenxi shrugged his shoulders and couldn't do it, "yes, otherwise, will they talk obediently?" β
Obviously, I can't, I can only use other methods, but it's really worrying that the princess is tossing like this! Yun Qingchen sighed and said melancholy: "Princess, if you don't, you can teach me to cultivate poison arts, and I will do what I need at the moment!" β
Chen Xi glanced at him: "You think it's a flower fist embroidered leg, anyone can learn it!" β
"I don't think I'm stupider than a princess, so what a princess can learn, I should be able to learn."
"No, that's fate......"
"What?"
Chenxi smiled quietly, "It's nothing, you don't have that kind of talent, don't mention such a thing at the moment." β
"Princess!"
"No matter how you cultivate, you can't be the same as me, I'm - anyway, even if you are like before, you don't need to practice poison arts."
Yun Qingchen looked at her unwillingly: "The princess doesn't believe me?" β
Of course, it's not that she is disbelievable, it's just that he really can't learn it, and even if she can, she won't let the people around her repeat her fate.
Although it is a talent, it is also a kind of fate, and if you get a sharp weapon, you must pay the same price! In this world, there is nothing that is not earned.
"Princess?"
"Don't say it, let them go back, just say that I haven't determined which guilty person is for the time being, and I'll find them again when I find definite evidence."
Yun Qingji was quietly stunned: "Go and put them all back?" β
"Hmm."
"The Great Elderβ"
"It's the same."
Yun Qingchen was a little unwilling, they all gathered, especially the Great Elder, this time he was released, who knows when he will appear next time, and he still wants to interrogate him!
Chenxi reached out to hold his hand, raised his eyes and looked at him sincerely, with a pleading in his eyes: "Qingji, don't be patient, I will give you an explanation." However, I realize that now is not the time, for my sake, can you endure for a few more days? β
