Chapter VII: Interrogation
The next day, Ye Zhaopei changed into black clothes and prepared to leave for the room to interrogate the assassin, and as soon as he went out, he bumped into Yun Qingchen and the ten tigers behind him outside the gate of the wrong garden. They are conducting daily patrols.
Before Ye Zhaopei could speak, the ten tiger ben had already said loudly: "I've seen the queen!" ”
Ye Zhaopei was stunned for a moment, and those embarrassing memories about Jiang Zhi swept back again, the roots of her ears were red, and she even took a step back.
Yun Qingchen noticed it, and couldn't help but smile a little in his eyes: "Miss Ye, are you going to go to the living room?" ”
A "Miss Ye" made Ye Zhaopei's heart feel more comfortable.
She wanted to nod yes, but the ten tiger ben's eyes were like torches, and they directly stifled her "yes". Ye Zhaopei shook his head and pretended to be calm: "I just came out to take a look, nothing else." Interrogation of things, I ...... Well, we'll talk about it later. ”
After speaking, she turned around and went back to the wrong garden, her back resolute and unacceptable.
After she left, a tiger ben asked curiously, "Why did the queen's ears turn red just now?" ”
Another tiger ben sighed: "I have to say, such a queen is much more likable than the queen who led us to kill people in the first place." ”
Yun Qingchen glanced at them expressionlessly, and the tiger ben closed their mouths one after another.
Ye Zhaopei felt very bored.
It's not that she doesn't like Jiang Zhi or being called the queen, it's just that she hasn't been able to adapt yet. In the past, people looked at her with fear, but now they are just smiling.
Ye Zhaopei didn't go out for two days in a row, staying in the wrong garden and thinking about what to do in the future.
In the past two days, Jiang Zhi did not come to her, but Jiang Zhi sent the attendants around him to deliver snacks and various gadgets to Ye Zhaopei.
On the third day, Jiang Zhi, who had not healed from his injuries, went to court. The court set up Ye Zhaopei as the latter, and the courtiers launched a series of fierce battles, and Ye Zhaopei did not know what the final result was.
However, that night, Ye Zhaopei changed into night clothes and quietly entered the Yunfu mansion.
Jiang Ziyang, the first king of the East Corner Kingdom, was the younger brother of the emperor of the Great Shang Dynasty, and the ancestor of the Yun family was the most loyal guard who followed Jiang Ziyang. Yun Mang belongs to the Yun family, and now he is the leader of Jiang Zhi's dark guard; Yun Qingchen is also from the Yun family, and now he is a tiger general. In addition, there are a lot of talents in the Yun family's clerical field, but Ye Zhaopei doesn't know much about it.
The Yun Mansion was adjacent to the palace, and Ye Zhaopei was in good shape, and soon turned into a wing room on the east side.
The people in the room were already alert, the bed was empty, and when Ye Zhaopei just stood firmly, he was hit by a short knife against his waist.
"Who?" The man standing behind him asked in a calm voice.
Ye Zhaopei didn't speak, and after a short silence, he turned slightly, moved his right hand back, and grabbed the hand behind him, forcing the tip of the knife to turn around and reach the throat of the person behind him. Even though it was dark in the room, Ye Zhaopei still accurately judged his location. With the advantage of disparity in strength and accurate judgment, he posed no threat to Ye Zhaopei.
In an instant, the man who originally had the initiative was severely suppressed by Ye Zhaopei.
He sighed: "Okay, I throw in the towel. ”
Ye Zhaopei chuckled: "Yun Mang, haven't you practiced martial arts recently?" ”
"I don't think even if I practice martial arts every day, I won't be able to parry you," Yun Mang said, "When I was eight years old, I would just secretly sawed off my father's chair to make him make a fool of himself in public, and I didn't kill my mother's big worm." ”
The lamp was quickly lit in the room, and Ye Zhaopei played with the short knife and sat on the side.
Yun Mang sat opposite her and said earnestly, "What about you now, but isn't it appropriate for the queen of our eastern kingdom to come to my room in the middle of the night to look for me?" If we get caught, we'll be immersed in a pig cage. ”
Ye Zhaopei glanced at him: "I have something to look for you." ”
Yun Mang nodded: "Friend, it doesn't matter if you want to discuss emotional issues with me." I'd love to. You and your ......"
"It's not that," Ye Zhaopei's face flushed, "It's about assassins." You accompany me to the interrogation, go now. ”
"Interrogating the Assassins now?" Yun Mang was stunned.
Ye Zhaopei nodded.
"I remember that it has been some time since the king's decree was issued, right? Haven't you been? And why do you have to go in the middle of the night? Assassins are also human, and assassins are also meant to sleep. What's more, if you tell me to go, I'll go, wouldn't I be very faceless? Yun Mang looked at her.
Ye Zhaopei was not in a hurry to speak. She just stood up and took two steps towards Yun Mang, the short knife in her hand facing Yun Mang's throat.
The domineering beauty sword was expressionless: "To go or not?" ”
Yun Mang, who had a very position, smiled: "It's an honor." ”
The two soon arrived at the apartment, where the two guards at the door were leaning against the wall and were drowsy. Yun Mang bent down to pick up the stone and threw one into each of their arms.
The guard came to his senses, saw the two people standing in front of the door, and hurriedly saluted: "Queen, Lord Yun." ”
Ye Zhaopei frowned and didn't speak. Yun Mang glanced at her, couldn't help but smile, and said to the two guards, "The queen and I came to interrogate the assassins. ”
The guard nodded hurriedly and respectfully invited the two into the living room.
"All the assassins of the Heavenly Assassin were imprisoned in this cell, four were captured alive, one died last night, and now only three remain." The jailer in charge of leading the way rubbed his eyes and explained meticulously.
Ye Zhaopei stood outside the cell, his eyes coldly scanning the three men who were already covered in scars.
The Assassin was extremely alert, and had already opened his eyes when Ye Zhaopei and Yun Mang were in prison. At that moment, they also noticed Ye Zhaopei. A man leaning against a wall seemed a little surprised to see her, but quickly regained his apathy.
"It's a serious injury." Ye Zhaopei said.
"Yes, there is no less flogging these days," said the jailer, "but they won't say anything. ”
The man leaning against the wall laughed, "You kid, do you see?" This girl feels sorry for us. Oh, what a beautiful girl, do you think the whipping is useless, and this time you decide to make a beauty trick? ”
The jailer rebuked viciously: "If you talk nonsense, I will really kill you!" ”
The man just laughed: "If you want to kill, you will kill, where is it true or false!" ”
Ye Zhaopei stared at him for a moment, and then smiled. She said, "You don't want to die, don't you still have some information to hide?" How could you die so easily without the connector who didn't see you? ”
The man was slightly stunned, and Ye Zhaopei continued: "There are too many things to ask in the East Corner Country, so I won't kill you, but it doesn't mean that you are absolutely safe." ”
She turned away: "Bring this man over, I'll interrogate it myself." ”
The jailer answered the next sound and went to open the door of the cell. The man was dragged towards Ye Zhaopei by two jailers, and a long trail of blood was pulled out behind him. The place where he was dragged was the interrogation room, which perennially smelled of blood. For Ye Zhaopei, those are familiar and even cordial.
Ye Zhaopei pointed to the old and blood-stained chair: "Put him down." ”
The jailer did so, and the man sat down in his chair and frowned at her, "You are the beauty sword?" ”
In this world, there are really not many women who can face such a scene without changing their faces. She was able to instruct the people in the EAST Residence as she pleased, and now it seemed that she could only be the beauty sword next to the EAST King.
"It's me, you know me, it seems that my reputation is also very loud in the Song Kingdom." Ye Zhaopei smiled.
The man also smiled and said: "The Song Kingdom wants to unite with the East Corner Kingdom, you say that I am from the Song Kingdom, so what's the point of me coming here to assassinate Jiang Zhi?" ”
"I'm afraid that your Song Kingdom has other schemes." Ye Zhaopei sighed, raised his eyes to look at the man again, and smiled at the corner of his mouth: "You know that I am the beauty sword, then you should also know where I am the killer." Do you know that there is a trial of life and death every twenty days on the Burning Mountain? You know, I still remember those trials. ”
The man's face changed.
Ye Zhaopei approached him step by step, the smile on his face was kind and gentle: "Back then, it was the people who were suitable to be killers that the entire Great Shang Dynasty was looking for with me to enter the Fire Mountain, there were a total of two hundred and fifty-six men and women, and one hundred and ten people died in the first life and death tempering. ”
She stood in front of the man: "After the tempering of life and death, we all ate delicious meat and drank fragrant broth for seven days. So, sometimes, I really like life and death. Now, will you try it too? ”
Yun Mang and the jailer both stood aside, and the jailer swallowed a mouthful of saliva and asked cautiously, "Lord Yun, what did the queen say...... Is it all true? ”
Yun Mang smiled: "It's true, but some places are not clear." ”
After a pause, the smile on his face continued: "The entire Fire Mountain has never been transported out of the body, and there is no tombstone. Those who died, guess how they were resolved? ”
The jailer was stunned.
Ye Zhaopei's interrogation process was very fast, and the information obtained was extremely shocking. The jailers and guards of the entire room were impressed, but she was only concerned about the little blood stain on her cuffs.
Out of the living room, Ye Zhaopei asked Yun Mang: "Do you know how to wash these off?" ”
Yun Mang looked at her in surprise: "In the past, didn't you change one when you were dirty, throw away the old one, and take the new clothes directly?" Why do you suddenly ask me how to wash these off? ”
Ye Zhaopei was silent for a while, and said a little embarrassedly: "Because I heard Uncle Peng say that his young lady was very virtuous, and her clothes were always clean, and she washed them by hand. ”
The beauty sword that looked like a demon in front of the assassin just now, but now she looks like a little daughter-in-law, Yun Mang was worried that she might be beaten to death by Ye Zhaopei after laughing, so she just held back a smile and asked, "Are you trying to be a virtuous queen?" ”
Ye Zhaopei didn't speak, she left and left, Yun Mang called her behind her: "Where are you going?" ”
"Go back to the palace," Ye Zhaopei didn't reply, "I'll inform your lord of the information tomorrow." ”
Yun Mang let out an "oh" and continued to ask her, "What about these assassins?" ”
Ye Zhaopei waved his hand: "Kill them, they are all useless." ”
