Chapter 109: Confess
This is no small surprise.
The two guards broke out in a cold sweat.
Who was the assassin who died inside?
Why did she say those things?
After a brief shock, Ji Liu had regained some of his senses, ordered one of them to report to the prince, and went in to check the corpse himself, thinking that if he was not completely dead, he would see if he could ask a few more questions.
It's a pity that the accuracy of the sword was excellent, and the assassin was pierced through the heart by the sword, and he died at that time, and he didn't even shed much blood.
In the course of this short meeting, Ji Nancheng and Shen Wenjiang had already hurried over, followed by a frightened flower.
Ji Liu glanced over there, and hurriedly lowered his head, so weak that he didn't dare to reply.
I was shocked by the situation here just now, and I didn't bother to go to see the prince.
Ji Nan Castle: ......
Turn around and go.
Shen Wenjiang hurriedly glanced at Ji Liu, and pointed to himself again, meaning you go quickly, don't worry, I am here.
Ji Liu glanced at her gratefully and hurriedly followed.
Shen Wenjiang immediately sent the prince's guards away.
Suddenly, only the two guards of the Liuxiang Inn were left at the scene.
There was such a big commotion, and when I think about it, the guests in the nearby rooms were all awakened, but no one came out to see the excitement, and they must have been afraid of getting into trouble.
The two guards were also trembling with fear.
Just now, it was the girl who killed the assassin inside.
And the words that the assassin shouted before he died, but the two of them really heard it, would she kill him?
Shen Wenjiang stepped forward, looked at the two of them and smiled.
The two guards couldn't help but take a step back, and one of them trembled, "We, we didn't hear anything, we didn't see anything." ”
"Good one," Shen Wenjiang said, took out two silver tickets from his sleeve pocket, and gave one to each of them, "Two big brothers, it's hard work, let's use this money to buy wine and drink." ”
"No, no, no." The two hurriedly refused.
Shen Wenjiang didn't give him a chance, so he couldn't help but say and stuffed it directly into their hands, "Trouble do me a small favor, drag this thief out and find a place to bury it." Otherwise, it will not be good to wait for dawn to be reported to the government. ”
That's true.
First, if someone dies in the inn, it will definitely affect the inn's business.
Second, once the government takes over this case, the inn will definitely have to close.
Third, the words that the Assassin shouted before he died were truly shocking. If it is found out by the government, I am afraid it will be another bloody storm.
It is better to believe that it is there than to believe that it is not.
Saving your life is the most important thing.
The two exchanged glances before reluctantly nodding.
Hualuo stood aside, tears in the corners of her eyes, covering her mouth and trying not to cry out, and opened her eyes to see the two guards carry the body out of it.
Fortunately, the guards took off their robes and covered her head and face.
Shen Wenjiang said again: "This is not a good thing, don't spread it everywhere." Be careful, woe comes from the mouth. ”
The two of them looked nervous, nodded hurriedly, and carried the corpse down the stairs quickly.
Shen Wenjiang pulled the flowers and went to the prince's room together.
The prince had woken up at this moment and was asking what was going on outside.
Ji Nancheng said truthfully: "I heard that it was an assassin, and it seems that he came for His Highness, but now the person is dead." ”
"Who killed her?" The prince asked.
Ji Nancheng said: "The flowers fall." ”
The prince frowned, looking a little displeased, "Why don't you leave a living mouth?" ”
Ji Nancheng said: "At that time, the situation was urgent, and the assassin shouted out the identity of His Highness, and Hualuo was in a hurry to gag her mouth, and accidentally killed her. Hualuo herself was frightened, or else, send her over to ask? ”
"No need." The prince waved his hand irritably, and looked at Ji Nancheng again, "Fortunately, you are here." ”
"Your Highness, rest assured, as long as the minister is here, no one will hurt His Highness."
Shen Wenjiang entered the door at this time, "Your Highness, I'm really sorry, I could have left a living mouth and asked her about the mastermind behind the scenes, but unfortunately, let Hualuo kill this girl by mistake." ”
Hearing this, Ji Nancheng glanced at her in surprise.
Just now, the two had no chance to unify their voices, but they didn't want to say the same thing.
Ji Liu is a member of the Ji family, so he will naturally take the young master's words as the standard.
With Ji Shizi here, the two prince's personal guards will not change their tone at will, and besides, this is how things are.
Xu has experienced a lot, and the prince is no longer as flustered as before, so he yawned and said: "You can take care of the aftermath, I'm so sleepy, I'm going to sleep." ”
After saying that, he really entered the inner room.
Outside, Ji Nancheng instructed Ji Liu a few more words before leaving with Shen Wenjiang.
Returning to his room, he retreated, and Shen Wenjiang confessed his identity as an assassin.
"I didn't expect Hua Qing to do such a thing." Shen Wenjiang sighed, then smiled bitterly again, and looked at Ji Nancheng, "Shizi, if you want to doubt me, I can't help it." In short, this was not my idea. ”
Ji Nancheng also looked at her fixedly, "I know, it won't be you." But your father, I'm afraid, can't get out of it. ”
In fact, from beginning to end, his suspicion was always Shen Lu.
Shen Wenjiang had already understood this from the first time they met.
To put it bluntly, the reason why the prince did not suspect himself was because of Shen Lu, the man who carried the blame.
Whether it was Hua Qing's doing, or the things she did herself, they could be blamed on Shen Lu's head, and it was reasonable.
After pondering for a moment, Shen Wenjiang said, "Actually, they don't completely obey my father's orders. ”
"And who else?" Ji Nancheng asked.
Shen Wenjiang raised his head and looked at Ji Nancheng, "The prince should know where they came from. ”
"Well, they're from the Race Blossom Pavilion." Ji Nancheng nodded, he had known this for a long time.
"So do the flowers." Shen Wenjiang added: "But Hualuo is different from them. ”
Ji Nancheng nodded again. If Hualuo was like them, he would have been driven away.
"But there is one thing that the prince may not know." Shen Wenjiang bit his lip and closed his eyes in pain.
Ji Nancheng's heart tightened, and he hurriedly said, "You say." ”
"In fact, when Fengzilin fell from a horse, I not only broke my leg, but also broke my brain...... I woke up and lost most of my own memories, but I don't know a little more, someone else's. ”
As soon as these words came out, Ji Nancheng's face was full of shock.
He stared blankly at the girl in front of him for a quarter of an hour, his mind blank.
Shen Wenjiang sighed in his heart.
If it weren't for Hua Qing's sudden death tonight, she didn't plan to tell Shizi these things.
When Hualuo came back, he told the story as it was, and under the circumstances, he could indeed only kill her.
Otherwise, if she is left alive, when she sees either the prince or the prince and reveals her true identity, it will be an abyss from which she will never recover.
In the final analysis, Hua Luo killed Hua Qing in order to save herself.
Until now, she hasn't recovered.
At this point, she had to say something to let the prince clear his doubts.
It is very painful to deceive someone, especially someone you love.
Shizi, I'm sorry, I had to lie to you......
