Chapter 431: College Nine

At this moment, when he heard Li Yi's question, Shi Wanjin didn't want to hide it anymore.

Because he found out that Li Yi is a ruthless person!

People are not afraid of the laws of the Tang Kingdom at all.

What's more, beside Li Yi, there are still two princesses Li Lizhen and county lord Du Xiaomei.

These two people are Li Shimin's sweethearts.

If it weren't for the ruthless men of them, who gave the order to the guards in a fit of anger just now, how could he, as a Taoist priest who was "protected by the laws of the Tang Kingdom", be beaten into such a miserable appearance?

If he is still quibbling as before and not confessing honestly, he is afraid to wait for a while......

He will be beaten to death.

It's just that Shi Wanjin was just about to confess, and he found that it suddenly became very difficult for him to speak, and his Adam's apple was extremely hoarse.

Obviously, it was because he was beaten to the point that he was dehydrated and weak.

"Water, give me a sip of water...... Shi Wanjin looked at Li Yi pitifully, planning to beg for a sip of water to drink, moisten his throat first and then recruit, otherwise he would definitely be wasted.

After all, he doesn't want to die yet......

He is just a mortal man.

What's more, before, he had planned to get a stealing beam to change the pillar and take the opportunity to escape.

It's just that the perfect plan he thought of had been beaten up by Li Yi and others at this time, invisibly interrupting all his back roads.

At this time, the only way to confess truthfully can save him from some flesh and skin suffering.

Whether there can be a turnaround depends on whether he can seize the opportunity.

"Give him a sip of water." Li Yi glanced at the pitiful Shi Wanjin and casually ordered the guards.

"Okay, Master Pony!" The guard smiled and nodded, and immediately scooped a bowl of water from the wooden bucket with the broken bowl on the wooden table, and poured it into Shi Wanjin's mouth.

"Gurgling ......"

Although this bowl of water was very dirty, what was helpless was that the guard did not plan to give him another bowl of clean water, and Shi Wanjin had to drink it.

Because his current body needs a bowl of water to replenish it.

And the current situation does not allow him to have a choice.

A bowl of underwater belly, Shi Wanjin felt a lot more comfortable up and down.

At least it's gone...... The heart is as uncomfortable as scratching.

"Say it." Li Yi glanced at Shi Wanjin, then turned around and sat on a bench not far from him, quietly waiting for Shi Wanjin to confess.

Shi Qianjin on the side thought that his master Shi Wanjin was still unwilling to confess, so he also quickly looked at Shi Wanjin, and his voice eagerly persuaded, "Master, your old man will tell Master Ma everything he knows......"

"......" Shi Wanjin's whole person had already brewed his emotions, but when he heard Shi Qianjin's words, he was instantly not good.

The more he looked at his apprentice Shi Qianjin, the more angry Shi Wanjin felt in his heart.

But what can he do?

He's desperate too!

Even, he didn't even have the strength to scold Shi Qianjin.

"That's right." Forcibly holding back the anger in his heart, Shi Wanjin took a deep breath before confessing truthfully, "It was a dark and windy night......

"Shao Teniang's nonsense, to the point!" As soon as Shi Wanjin spoke, Chu Limo scolded loudly.

For some reason, hearing this scolding sound, Shi Wanjin was suddenly stunned, and he was so frightened that he kept nodding his head, which was completely different from his previous indifferent appearance.

"Yes, sir." In a hurry, Shi Wanjin said directly, "Let the poor ...... The villain came to the academy to spread rumors and disrupt the admissions of the academy, his name is Zheng An! ”

"Zheng An?"

Suddenly, everyone in the entire prison was not calm.

They all know who Zheng An is.

Isn't that the imperial merchant Zheng An?

In the whole world, in addition to his name, is there anyone else who is also called the name 'Zheng An'?

Li Yi also narrowed his eyes.

Looking at Shi Wanjin in front of him, Li Yi suddenly asked out loud, "Which Zheng An?" ”

"His name is Zheng An, Master Horse, you have to believe the villain, the villain really didn't lie!" Shi Wanjin was also anxious, and even his voice was in a hurry.

Although he also knew in his heart that the person who was in charge of the Zheng family of the imperial merchant was also called Zheng An, but when he first came to Xuandu Temple, the person who sent him a message was called Zheng An.

Moreover, that person is also Zheng An's face.

He couldn't be mistaken.

Although he is a person, he has always liked to be greedy for money and like to pretend to be a ghost.

But now, it's all like this, is it still necessary for him to lie?

Isn't that sincere...... Can't get along with himself?

"Master Horse, everything the villain said is true, the person who sent the message to the villain at the beginning was Zheng An, the villain will never be mistaken!" Shi Wanjin added again.

"Are you sure...... Didn't lie in front of me? Li Yi squinted slightly and re-examined Shi Wanjin, "Presumably, you should also know the fate of lying in front of me." ”

"The villain is sure, and very sure!" Shi Wanjin replied hurriedly, "At the beginning, it was a dark night, but the villain remembers it clearly, and the villain will never recognize the wrong person, that is, Zheng An is right!" ”

"Is that the imperial merchant Zheng An?" Li Yi asked again.

"That's him!" Shi Wanjin nodded with a straight face.

This time, Li Yi suddenly felt very interesting.

This is getting ...... It's getting harder and harder.

Before, when he questioned Shi Wanjin, he had already carefully observed Shi Wanjin's facial expressions and the movement of the complexion of his eyes.

A person can lie without blushing, but his eyes can't deceive people.

From Shi Wanjin's eyes, Li Yi didn't see the slightest sign of lying.

In this way, the person behind the scenes who gave Shi Wanjin a favor and let him do things should be the 'Zheng An' in Shi Wanjin's mouth.

It's just that this 'Zheng An' still needs Li Yi to investigate.

However, Li Lizhen, Du Xiaomei, and Chu Limo and others, after hearing Shi Wanjin's answer, the whole person was stunned, and he felt a little dazed.

Because in their impression, Zheng An has always been close to Li Yi, and he is also very responsible for doing business.

What's more, he is still an imperial merchant of the Tang Dynasty!

"Even he, Zheng An, dares to be so blatant and go against the entire Tang Kingdom?"

"Isn't that digging your own grave?"

"Besides, is Zheng An such a person? He's not a fool!"

For a while, Chu Limo thought that Shi Wanjin was lying.

"Bullnose old Dao, you are a special mother, but you still don't invite you truthfully? Still talking nonsense with dog eyes open? Chu Limo let out an angry sigh, raised the long whip in his hand, and threatened, "Do you believe it or not, I'll whip your skin now?!" ”

The guards behind him were also waiting for Shi Wanjin angrily.

"Bullnose old way, I think you owe a beating, right?"

"Haven't been greeted enough just now?"

"Master Horse, according to the foolish opinion of the last general, this bull-nosed old way, just hasn't been beaten enough!"

One voice after another, sounded endlessly.

Several guards couldn't hold back the anger in their hearts, clenched their fists, and at the same time, their faces all showed a fierce look of "I'm going to beat people now".

This posture frightened Shi Wanjin on the spot, and almost subconsciously shrunk his neck, hiding like a turtle with a shrunken head, "Official, the villain really didn't lie...... What the villain says is true..."

At this time, Shi Wanjin had a desperate grief in his heart.

The person who commanded him was Zheng An's face!

It's got to this point, is it necessary for him to lie?

Why is it that no one believes in himself when he tells the truth......

"Don't be impulsive!" But seeing Chu Limo and the others, they were about to start beating people, Li Yi hurriedly waved his hand, and everyone turned their heads to look at Li Yi.

Not only Chu Limo and others were puzzled, but even Li Lizhen, Du Xiaomei and others were also puzzled at the moment.

They didn't believe that Zheng An would be the person behind the scenes.

Because it's not possible......

Are you kidding?

"Li Bo'an, what do you think...... Is he telling the truth? Li Lizhi frowned calmly, glared at Shi Wanjin fiercely, and then looked sideways at Li Yi.

"Half true, half fake..."Li Yi smiled and shook his head.

“??? What is this? Li Lizhi was a little dizzy when she heard this, blinked, pouted aggrievedly, looked at Li Yi and said, "Li Bo'an, you make it clear, I don't understand much..."

"Yes, third brother, my little sister doesn't understand much..."Du Xiaomei also said with a wooden voice.

It feels like Li Yi is selling Guanzi.

They heard it in a fog.

"Hehe......" Li Yi shook his head with a smile, glanced at Shi Wanjin meaningfully, and then turned his head and said, "Since he said that it was Zheng An, then let's call Zheng An, won't it be out of the blue?" ”

"Uh...... It seems that this is the truth, Childe. Yue'er, who had never spoken, muttered softly.

Li Lizhen and Du Xiaomei also nodded, quite agreeing with Li Yi's opinion.

At this time, when Chu Limo heard this, he didn't believe that Zheng An would actually do such a thing, so he immediately took the initiative to ask Ying, "Master Horse, princess, county lord, let the last general go?" ”

Li Yi shook his head and said with a smile, "General Chu, you stay here first, I have other things that need you, so it's better to send someone casually." ”

"Uh......" Chu Limo was slightly stunned, obviously he didn't expect that Li Yi had other things to tell him.

"Yes, Master Pony." Nodding, Chu Limo turned his head to look at his brother's person, chose the guard who had beaten Shi Wanjin before, and immediately ordered, "You go to the academy now, bring Zheng An over, remember not to alarm anyone." ”

"Yes, sir!" The guard immediately responded with a fist, then turned around and walked straight out of the cell.

As soon as the guard turned around and left, Li Yi immediately gave Yue'er a look.

Yue'er blinked slightly, and instantly understood what Li Yi meant.

Nodding softly, she leaned close to Du Xiaomei's ear and whispered a whisper to Du Xiaomei.

“???” Du Xiaomei looked at Yue'er with a puzzled face, but she was just about to speak out when she saw the corners of Yue'er's mouth, and her movements moved very delicately.

At this time, Du Xiaomei completely understood.

"Ahem, cough ......" On the spot, Du Xiaomei covered her mouth and coughed dryly, quite a feeling of being cold, which frightened Li Lizhi beside her, and hurriedly said with concern, "Little sister, what's wrong with you?" ”

"I'm a little uncomfortable," Du Xiaomei replied softly.

"Or ...... I'll go out with you? Li Lizhen proposed.

"No need, I'll go out by myself and take a breath of fresh air, it should be fine." Du Xiaomei refused softly.

But Li Lizhen suddenly felt that Du Xiaomei's situation seemed to be very different from usual.

The two of them have grown up together since they were young, and both are familiar with each other's physical conditions.

Du Xiaomei will be provoked by the air in the cell and have a dry cough?

It's simply impossible, well!

"It must be a little sister, what's the matter!"

Li Lizhi thought so in her heart.

At this time, she was even more worried and let Du Xiaomei go out alone.

But before Li Li could speak, Li Yi, who knew that Du Xiaomei had been notified by Yue'er, glanced at Du Xiaomei beside her with concern and asked, "Little sister, you don't matter, right?" ”

"I didn't ...... It's just a little unaccustomed, the smell of the cell. Du Xiaomei grinned, and then Shi Shiran said, "Third brother, I'll just go out and blow a breath of cold air." ”

"Hmm......" Li Yi blinked thoughtfully, and then agreed, "Okay, then you wait for me outside." ”

"Well, my little sister knows." Du Xiaomei nodded obediently, turned around and was about to leave the cell.

Seeing this, Li Lizhi immediately chased after him and shouted, "Little sister, wait for me, I'll accompany you!" ”

However, Chu Limo, as well as a group of his guards, didn't care at all after hearing the conversation between Li Lizhen and Du Xiaomei, after all, the princess and the county lord were delicate, where had they ever entered the cell?

They feel a little uncomfortable with the air in it, and that's normal.

But after all, they are princesses and county lords, and Li Yi is here again, Chu Limo hurriedly said, "Master Ma, or ...... The last general asked his subordinates to go out to protect the princess county lord? ”

"No, it's fine." Li Yi waved his hand indifferently, and directly rejected Chu Limo's kindness, "They just don't adapt to the air here, just go outside and rest for a while." ”

"Uh... That's fine. Chu Limo nodded helplessly.

After all, Li Yi said so, it was impossible for him to ...... And continue to propose with a dead face, let people go out to protect them, right?

However, at this time, Li Yi did smile slightly, looked at Chu Limo mysteriously, and suddenly asked, "General Chu, what do you think...... The real murderer behind this, could it be Zheng An? ”

“???” Chu Limo was stunned for a moment, scratched his head, and then shook his head seriously and replied, "Master Horse, this is unlikely, right?" After all, Zheng An is an imperial businessman of the Tang Dynasty, and he has always been good friends with you, how can it be him? ”

"Well," Li Yi nodded, nodding his head in disbelief, "I think so too, but tell me, who will be the real murderer behind this scene?" ”

Chu Limo immediately fell into deep thought.

After half a night, he shook his head and replied, "Master Horse, the last general is ignorant, I can't guess, I think it should be this bull-nosed old way, let's lie again......"

"Possibly." Li Yi smiled and didn't say anything more.

As soon as he heard this, Shi Wanjin suddenly became uncalm, his face was full of bitterness, and he struggled to defend, "Master Horse, the villain really didn't lie, the villain dares to use the Taishang Sanqing as a guarantee, if the villain has a lie, let the villain go to hell, and he will never be able to turn over!" ”

"Bullnose is old-fashioned, and you are still demagogic here?" Chu Limo suddenly scolded.

"The villain really doesn't have it......" Shi Wanjin wanted to cry.

To tell the truth, no one believed him.

This Nima, I feel so tired of being a man......

But at this moment, Li Yi, who had been silent and did not speak, suddenly spoke out coldly.

"Yue'er, take the person down for me!"

"Yes, Childe!" Yue'er nodded, and she immediately took out a short blade from her sleeve.

In the next moment, I saw Yue'er rushing towards Shi Wanjin like the wind.
