Chapter 378: Interrogation
() "Kiyoki?" Xue Tan hurriedly ran to him and looked at the familiar face in front of him.
Qi Yuan also frowned, and glanced at Xue Tan dissatisfied, Xue Tan's face was a little embarrassed, and he didn't know what to say.
"She, why is she here?" Qi Yuan's voice seemed to be squeezed out of his throat, gloomy and indifferent.
Xue Tan also looked embarrassed, this matter, in the final analysis, should be counted on his head, Xue Tan also knew that it was a little inappropriate to stay in the two of them to escape, and this responsibility should have been borne by himself.
"I don't know." Xue Tan shook his head helplessly.
"Qi Yuan, don't blame Xue Tan." Yin Qingqi's face was cold, full of sadness, as if he was thinking about something.
"This matter has nothing to do with Xue Tan, it's all Jiuling's ghost." Yin Qingqi said slowly, her tone full of disgust.
"Huo Jiuling?"
The two glanced at each other, and neither of them thought that the people around them would betray themselves.
"But why would she do that?" Qi Yuan's face was displeased, but he still tried his best to restrain his anger.
"It's because of you." Yin Qingqi's expression was slightly embarrassed when he looked at Qi Yuan, and then he turned his gaze.
"Miss Nine has always wanted to kill me, and then she will take the throne herself." Yin Qingqi smiled bitterly, even she couldn't imagine that the position of the crown princess was really coveted by many people.
"Huo Jiuling, this ......" Xue Tan just wanted to continue, glanced at Qi Yuan's face, and then kept silent.
"Did Huo Jiuling say anything to you before leaving?" Qi Yuan looked at it coldly, since Huo Jiuling was a member of the Huo family, he would naturally be the target of the government's key inspections, how could he betray Yin Qingqi? Besides, catching a Huo Jiuling is much more credit than finding them.
"I seem to vaguely hear that she said that she was going to find someone outside the city......" Yin Qingqi frowned slightly, could it be Chang Lei?
"Could it be that she wants to betray Chang Lei? She knows our plans, but she also knows who we are. Xue Tan said in horror, since Huo Jiuling knew what the identities of these people were, even if it was an official government, he had to think about it, not to mention a small county government.
"Maybe she won't tell people who we are, and she won't let others know who she is." Qi Yuan said coldly, this kind of person, Qi Yuan has seen a lot, since there is no such person now
The rest of the way, then can only quietly wait for Chang Lei to notice.
"Ugh." Xue Tan clenched his fists, a little self-reproachful, it may have been a mistake to entrust Yin Qingqi to Huo Jiuling in the first place, he shouldn't have trusted this girl so much.
"Qi Yuan, during this time, it's better not to reveal your identity." Yin Qingqi opened her mouth to speak, silently thinking about countermeasures.
"If the people in the government know that we are from the capital, they will inevitably threaten the emperor with us, and the rest of the things will be as we said in the inn, when we are Yan Qiong's people."
"No, this trick can't be used anymore." Qi Yuan shook his head helplessly.
"Since the government can catch us, it means that they have seen through our tricks."
Chang Lei's whereabouts are unknown now, and he may be betrayed by Huo Jiuling at any time, and several people are now in prison, so naturally they can't report at will.
Unexpectedly, after many days, several people suffered from prison again.
In the dark, a person who looked like a county magistrate came over and came to a few people, and the official headed by him moved a chair and put it in front of him, and the county official sat in front of a few people and sneered.
"Tell me, how did you come up with the idea of using the hands of the Huo family to create a plague? Could it be that he wants to harm the people of Qamdo? ”
Qi Yuan and Xue Tan glanced at each other, in the final analysis, it was nothing more than a battle between the two doctors, and it would evolve into what it is now.
"My lord, we never said what the Huo family was looking for, you said that the surname was Huo, and I didn't know it at all." Xue Tan sneered, and swept up and down at the scrawny county order in front of him.
"Presumptuous!" The county commander let out a loud sigh, trembled all over, and pretended to be majestic.
"This official has already found out that you and the criminal Chang Lei are in the same stream, and you dare to quibble? Since this is the case, don't blame the official for being unkind! As he spoke, the county commander lowered his head, leaned near the officers and soldiers around him, and whispered something.
"Wait." Xue Tan took a look at it, this was to abuse lynching, and he didn't care, but Yin Qingqi's fine skin and tender flesh naturally couldn't withstand the toss, and besides, she was a sick body, if she was tortured again, I was afraid that she wouldn't be able to survive.
"I say, I say." Xue Tan and Qi Yuan exchanged a look, and of course Qi Yuan understood what he meant.
This is to confess Huo Jiuling.
"When we were arrested, there was another person with her, right?" Xue Tan sneered and looked at the county order with a puzzled expression.
The county commander looked around left and right, and communicated with the official for a moment before nodding silently, "So what?" She is a good citizen of the highest class, and she is risking her life in order to report you, and besides, she is now an important witness for us. ”
"But do you know that you tried your best, but you never caught a real Huo family."
Xue Tan's face sank like water, his face was calm, and the county commander saw that he didn't have the slightest intention of panicking, but he was a little anxious.
"What are you talking nonsense about? Is she a member of the Huo family? How could the official not know? The county commander slapped the chair and scolded Xue Tan loudly.
"Maybe you don't know, but she brought us here from Yangzhou."
After Xue Tan finished speaking, he closed his mouth silently, quietly closed his eyes, and let the county order ponder alone.
Yin Qingqi looked at it coldly, although she shouldn't be overly merciful at this time, she was still a little hesitant, after all, Huo Jiuling had also shared weal and woe with several people for many days, and she was only a weak woman, so Yin Qingqi was also a little unbearable to do this.
"Qi Yuan, isn't it a bit ...... to do this" Yin Qingqi said in a low voice, his expression a little stiff.
"Shh Qi Yuan made a silent gesture to Yin Qingqi, quietly observing the movements of the county order.
"I didn't expect that the county magistrate would also have a time when he was half-understood." Xue Tan added oil and vinegar to the side, constantly ridiculing the county order.
"My lord, can you think about it, is a so-called 'chaotic minister and thief' important, or is a real Huo family harmful, if I guessed correctly, this matter is a ghost made by the Han family from beginning to end, what the Han family wants, you won't know, right?"
The county magistrate and several officials looked at each other and remained silent.
"If I'm not mistaken, that one named Huo Jiuling should be hiding in the city, right?" The prefectural magistrate asked tentatively.
"Of course, and it's in Lin Chuntang, the house of the shopkeeper Han." Xue Tan sneered, everything was under control.
"Presumptuous, Shopkeeper Han is the imperial doctor appointed by the Holy Lord, how could he do such a rebellious thing, you have to make up a story, you have to look like it, right?" The county commander scolded Xue Tan angrily, and his eyes were round!
