Chapter 059: All Caught
Nie Xinrou has made a bloody investment in the end, and there are still many assassins, wave after wave, endlessly.
Commander Yun listened to Qingchen's order, and without a moment's hesitation, he ordered the crossbowmen who had already lurked nearby to shoot at the black-clothed man in the field, and countless arrows only passed by Qingchen's side, almost injuring Qingchen by mistake several times.
The scene is still chaotic.
But for Qingchen, she actually felt very happy at this time, as if after exhausting the despair of thousands of mountains and rivers, she suddenly saw hope, and her eyes suddenly brightened.
used to toss and turn because Xiao Yi was seriously injured and unconscious, and he also frowned a thousand times because Xiao Yi was controlled by Nie Xinrou, but now, seeing Xiao Yi, who is good, his martial arts are not inferior to before, just like when they first met, Xiao Yi's long sword swirled between those secret guards and saved her.
The two of them turned back and forth in their hearts, but they knew that this was not a good time to speak, seeing that there were fewer and fewer black-clothed assassins around them, and more and more people died under the arrows of the crossbowmen, Qingchen and Xiao Yi glanced at each other, and they both saw the same message in each other's eyes.
It's time.
The assassins can't leave too much, otherwise they will expose some flaws that are unnecessarily exposed, but she can't leave any of them, because she also expects these assassins to come forward to testify against Nie Xinrou, only in this way, can she completely cut off the possibility of Nie Xinrou's future succession to the throne in this incident.
Thinking of this, Qingchen gave Yun Commander a look, and Yun Commander came to his senses, waved his hand, and asked the crossbowmen to stop, and then the forbidden army swarmed up and completely trapped those assassins.
Qingchen walked through the crowd with his small size and nimble posture, the long sword in his right hand blocked the attacks of the assassins, and the fingers of his left hand were as fast as lightning, quickly hitting the acupoints of the assassins, leaving them unable to move.
Xiao Yi saw that Qingchen was already able to control the scene, so he withdrew and left, dodging and hiding in the shadows, because it was not as chaotic as before, if he continued to blatantly help Qingchen, he might be detected by that Cloud Commander, then Nie Xinyao would not be able to hide it.
Even so, Xiao Yi was not idle, he hid in the shadows, blocking those open guns and arrows that Qingchen didn't have time to dodge, ensuring that Qingchen would not be hurt at all during the walk.
Soon, the forbidden army led by Qingchen and Yun took down all those assassins, and none of them escaped, except for those who died and were seriously injured, all the others were pointed to by Qingchen, and the forbidden army took out a rope and tied it up, tied it very strongly, and took it to the dining room to go to the empress to restore his life.
Seeing this, Xiao Yi suddenly appeared again, followed the team quietly, and returned to the dining room together.
The empress and Nie Xinrou and the others were waiting, compared to the empress's calmness, Nie Xinrou looked very anxious, her eyes kept looking outside, and her feet trembled involuntarily, as if she was waiting for something.
The moment she saw Xiao Yi's figure appear at the door, she was overjoyed, but then she saw Qingchen and Yun Commander around her, as well as the seven black-clothed people who were tied up sturdily behind her, none of them fell, but her originally excited heart gradually sank.
"Your Majesty, Wechen has been ordered to capture the assassin, and he has come to report to His Majesty. Commander Yun took the lead in stepping forward, walked in front of the empress, and spoke.
"Bring the assassin up, I want to see who is so bold as to dare to assassinate me. When the empress heard this, she opened her mouth and commanded, her face sank, and she was quite dignified.
Seeing this, Commander Yun waved his hand and asked his subordinates to escort those assassins up, because those black-clothed people were all dusted and acupuncture, and they couldn't move or speak, so they could only let those forbidden soldiers do whatever they wanted.
With a command, the forbidden soldiers behind the black-clothed man all struck out in unison, kicking the crook of the leg at this moment, causing those assassins to kneel on the ground involuntarily, and there was a crisp sound, which made the people in the room shake violently.
"Your Majesty, they were all pointed to by the people's daughters, but I am afraid that they will not be able to answer anything. But if the folk girl unlocked their acupoints, and she was afraid that they would commit suicide, she couldn't ask anything, so the folk girl suggested that they should search their mouths first and find out the poison. Seeing this, Qingchen spoke.
With the permission of the Empress, the Forbidden Army started again, rummaging through the mouths of the Assassins, and finally found the poison hidden in between their teeth, and took out the poison so that the Assassins could not take the poison to commit suicide.
"Yun Aiqing, you will preside over the trial, Yao'er, you will supervise the trial. The empress turned her head and instructed Nie Xinyao and Commander Yun.
The two nodded, and stepped forward. The civil and military ministers in the dining room were also very eye-catching, and they all retreated, making room for Nie Xinyao and their interrogation, so that they could play.
Nie Xinrou followed back, but her eyes looked at those people in black motionlessly, although she was covered with a black scarf, but the familiar eyes of a few people still shocked Nie Xinrou's heart.
Nie Xinyao stepped forward and tore off the masked scarves on those people's faces, revealing their faces under the veil, all of which were sharp and angular, but their faces were full of murderous aura.
"Anyway, who sent you, if you want to live, you'd better be honest. Unceremonious, Commander Yun slammed a whip on the assassins and said in a cold voice.
"You'd better think clearly, don't implicate your relatives on a charge of assassinating the emperor for those things outside your body. Nie Xinyao also said, "Your identity is not difficult to identify, your past is not traceless, becoming a killer may be voluntary, or it may be a last resort, you are not afraid of death, and it will be a hundred when you die, but the relatives who stay in the world are not so good......"
Nie Xinyao's words that seemed to be admonishing and threatening came out, and the room suddenly fell silent.
After being silent for a while, Qingchen raised his head, his gaze swept over the faces of those black-clothed people one by one, and landed on the face of the sixth person, nodding at him slightly, his eyes flashing slightly, giving him a signal.
"I said, the villain still has a wife and children, please be gracious to Your Majesty, don't embarrass them! As long as Your Majesty agrees, the villain will recruit anything!" The man in black received Qingchen's message, and immediately spoke.
The empress's eyes lit up, and she said coldly: "Bold, you still dare to talk to me about conditions." ”
"Your Majesty, these people live a life of licking blood from the knife edge, taking some silver, but also to support their families, and they value the lives of their families the most. Qingchen persuaded, hoping that the empress would not be angry.
The Empress thought about it, and the most important thing for her now was to understand who had sent these assassins, and as for other matters, she could wait until everything was ascertained.
Thinking of this, the empress nodded her head and showed her favor.
"Your Majesty has agreed to your request, and no matter what, you will never embarrass your wife and children, you can say it now. Nie Xinyao spoke for the empress, and her tone was solemn and prestigious.
When the assassin saw the empress nodding and Nie Xinyao saying this, he no longer hesitated, so he said: "The villain is under the order of His Royal Highness San, and he is ambushed in the dining room, just wait for His Majesty to enter the dining room, and make sure that His Majesty dies here!"
As soon as these words came out, everyone's eyes looked at Nie Xinrou, their eyes were full of complicated looks, both shocked and angry, shocked that they didn't know why Nie Xinrou did this, and angry that Nie Xinrou dared to do this!
Nie Xinrou looked at the assassin who had spoken out against her, even if she didn't understand it in her heart, she understood it all now.
This so-called assassination was simply arranged by Nie Xinyao, and the assassin in front of her was also arranged by Nie Xinyao, she took advantage of her position to take advantage of her position, deliberately exposed her flaws, and let her place people near the main hall, so as to gain insight into her plan.
Then, Nie Xinyao arranged for her own people to be near the dining room, and took the first step to disrupt her plan, obviously the person who did it was Nie Xinyao's subordinates, but when Commander Yun went out to hunt down, it was the person she arranged near the main hall that was caught, but Nie Xinyao's people were retreating, and they walked cleanly, leaving no traces.
What she didn't expect was that among the killers she bought, there were also Nie Xinyao's people, they killed all the assassins, leaving only seven people, among these seven people, there was a wife and children alive, who could be threatened by them, even if the empress sent someone to investigate, there was no flaw.
is so logical, it comes naturally, and the plan is seamless, so she is trapped in it, and she can't escape.
Even if she sent Xiao Yi to go, in front of so many forbidden troops, even if Xiao Yi could come up with a way to deal with it, they would not have time, they could only become the turtles in the urn of those forbidden troops, waiting for all to be caught.
After a thousand turns of thought, she already understood Nie Xinyao's plan, and Nie Xinrou understood even more that such a plan was definitely not something that Nie Xinyao could think of alone, it must be the woman surnamed Mu next to her, she was the only one who could achieve such an effect.
Just as Nie Xinrou was pondering, the empress's angry voice sounded: "Rou'er, don't you have anything to defend?
"Mother, I'm ......" Nie Xinrou suddenly heard the empress's voice, raised her head, looked at the other party, and wanted to speak, but saw that the other party's eyes were full of doubtful expressions, and the words that she wanted to defend were suddenly blocked in her throat, and she couldn't say anything.
She knew that the Empress was suspicious of her, because the Empress had already believed the assassin's words, and she had already believed that she was behind all this, and no matter how she defended herself, she could not dispel the doubts in the Empress's heart, and that question was just a routine matter.
"I didn't expect it to be Her Royal Highness the Third Imperial Princess. Qingchen chuckled lightly and spoke again, "But Her Majesty the Empress is the biological mother of the Third Highness after all, maybe this matter is just this assassin indiscriminately biting and trying to frame the Third Highness?" ”
