Chapter Ninety-Eight: We Will Know
After the Assassins were taken away, the lake fell silent, and those who could not hear the sound cautiously poked their heads out.
The cabin door that Xiao Yiran couldn't push open just now also "creaked" open at this time.
Xianglan was the first to rush out with tears on her face, and threw herself on the railing to cry and laugh at Xiao Yiran, who was standing not far away: "Miss...... Miss, great, you're okay. ”
Xiao Yiran was inconvenient to go over now, so he had to throw a reassuring look at her, which made Xianglan gradually calm down, and then she looked at Bai Huaping and the others who slowly walked out.
When Bai Huaping and the others saw that Xiao Yiran was intact, their faces changed a little instantly. When he saw Baili Wuchen, he hurriedly knelt down and saluted him: "Participate in Prince Yan." ”
Baili Wuchen waved his hand coldly.
Bai Huaping helped Xiao Zijun to stand up, and said anxiously to Xiao Yiran: "Third sister, third sister, what's going on?" Why did you stand on the Prince's boat? ”
Xiao Yiran lowered his eyebrows and lowered his eyes, and said with a frightened look: "Mother, just now an assassin wanted to assassinate me and the prince, but fortunately, the prince came to the rescue and brought Yiran to his ship. ”
"How is that possible? How could they ......" Hearing this, Xiao Zijun was so anxious that he blurted out the words in his mouth, but when he saw everyone looking at him suspiciously, he forced a laugh, swallowed everything he wanted to say just now, and changed his tone and said: "How could they have such courage to assassinate Prince Yan?" ”
Xiao Yiran said: "Yes, I also wonder why they killed me and the prince. But it doesn't matter, the prince has already sent someone to interrogate, and I believe that there will be an answer soon. She bowed her head and said to Baili Wuchen: "Thank you for the prince's life-saving grace today." I hope those people can tell the reason for the assassination as soon as possible, and the little girl will tell you the truth. ”
Baili Wuchen looked at the little girl in front of him who lied without blinking, and turned her face faster than turning a book, and said: "Miss Xiao San, don't worry, my people have been in prison, and they are very good at interrogating prisoners, and they will definitely let the assassin know everything and say everything." ”
Originally, Xiao Zijun was worried enough to see that Baili Wuchen was involved in this matter, but now that he said this, his face turned white, and he took a step back with some unsupport, and his heart was panicked.
Bai Huaping was also uncomfortable at this time, she said to Xiao Yiran: "Third sister, why bother the prince with this kind of thing, our Hou Mansion also brought a lot of people this time, let's try it." ”
Xiao Yiran said: "Now the prince's people must have started interrogation, wouldn't it be bad if they interrupted rashly?" She looked at Baili Wuchen with an embarrassed expression.
Baili Wuchen looked at her and chuckled: "It's a little bit not good." ”
Bai Huaping's complexion instantly turned a degree paler, and she moved her lips and said, "That's it...... Then trouble the Prince. ”
Seeing that they looked like mourners, Xiao Yiran squinted slightly, and sneered in his heart: "Having said that, since there are a lot of people in the house, why didn't anyone come to save me when Yiran was outside just now?" And the strange thing is that the door of the cabin could not be opened. ”
As soon as the words fell, the surroundings fell into a dead silence for a moment.
After a while, Bai Huaping smiled stiffly and said, "At that time, the situation was really critical, and my mother was so frightened that I forgot about it for a while." ”
"Oh." Xiao Yiran nodded.
At this time, Xianglan retorted loudly with red eyes: "It's not! I just said that the young lady is still outside, but madam, you and the fourth young master still closed the door regardless of it, and asked people to block the door! ”
"What are you talking nonsense?" Xiao Zijun stared and shouted, and immediately wanted to go up and slap her.
Pandan shrunk.
Xiao Yiran immediately looked at him sharply and said, "Fourth brother, what are you doing here?" ”
"Fourth Prince Xiao." At this time, Baili Wuchen also opened his mouth.
Hearing this warning, Xiao Zijun hurriedly stopped Xiao Yiran's unblocked slap and said, "Prince." ”
Bai Huaping also explained with a smile: "Prince, it's this girl who is talking nonsense, and Jun'er is also angry for a while, so she will be like this." ”
Baili Wuchen said lightly: "Whether it's nonsense or not, I'll know when the trial is over in a while." ”
"Yes, yes." Bai Tu Ping bowed his head.
At this time, He Lin happened to walk out, with an assassin at hand, the assassin seemed to be intact from top to bottom, but his trembling body and forehead that kept breaking out in cold sweat revealed that he had just suffered a lot.
He Lin still put him on the ground, and then said to Baili Wuchen: "Master, this person has been recruited." ”
"Hmm." Baili Wuchen bowed his head and asked, "Who instructed you?" ”
He Lin said in a flat tone: "He said that he is the fourth young master of the Zhongyong Marquis Mansion." ”
The air fell into a deathly silence again.
Xiao Yiran looked incredulous: "Fourth, fourth brother, why did you, why did you send someone to assassinate me and the prince?" ”
Xiao Zijun hurriedly knelt down to Baili Wuchen with a "poof" and said, "No, no, I didn't!" See, Prince, that we have instructed these Assassins to assassinate you! ”
Baili Wuchen was silent, and when He Lin saw this, he immediately kicked the assassin who was lying on the ground.
The assassin hurriedly knelt up straight like a frightened bird, and said to Baili Wuchen: "Don't, don't! Spare me! I say! I'll say everything! It's the fourth young master, and it was the fourth young master of the Marquis of Zhongyong Mansion who bribed me to assassinate the third young lady of the Marquis of Zhongyong's Mansion. ”
Xiao Zijun roared in horror: "You are talking nonsense! You're trying to frame me! ”
The assassin turned his head and said, "Fourth Young Master, we won't do this business. I will give you back the money. As he spoke, he took out a money bag from his arms and threw it to Xiao Zijun like a hot potato: "Our brother just wants to make a profit, but he didn't want to lose his life." ”
He kowtowed to Baili Wuchen again and begged for mercy: "Spare your life, the prince spare your life!" ”
Baili Wuchen said condescendingly: "What do you do for a living?" ”
The Assassin hesitated to speak.
He Lin immediately put the sword on his neck, he shuddered, and immediately said honestly: "The grass people and those brothers are, they are from the grass and the green head mountain. ”
It turned out to be bandits!
Xiao Yiran said: "You said you are a bandit, so how can my fourth brother know you?" Besides, we are brothers and sisters, how could he send you to assassinate me! You must be lying! ”
Hearing this, the assassin swore on the spot: "The grass people don't dare!" It's really the fourth young master of the Hou Mansion! Believe it or not, this is the portrait given to us by the fourth young master, saying that let's just assassinate the woman in this painting. ”
Xiao Yiran took the portrait and opened it to take a look, and sure enough, it was himself. She pretended to be shocked and looked at Xiao Zijing: "Fourth brother...... Is it really you? ”
