Chapter 123 Captive Assassin 2

"After all the Northwest spies arrested and returned to Beijing, King Rui will personally interrogate. But what I never thought was that the day before the arrest, someone leaked the news, causing the top figure of the Northwest spies to flee from Lanzhou overnight."

"After I arrived in Lanzhou, I only caught those spies from the bottom, and no important figure was discovered."

"So, when King Rui found out, he ordered the people from Prince Rui's mansion to go to various major cities and post wanted orders from Song Hao and others at each city gate. The discoverers were rewarded."

"Just less than a day after posting the wanted order, we received a secret letter from King Rui, saying that on the official road from Lanzhou to Jingzhou, someone discovered Song Hao, the head of the Northwest region's spy, and ordered us to arrest him immediately and return to Beijing, and he would definitely take this person down."

"The brothers chased Jingzhou all the way, and then scattered around every corner of Jingzhou City to investigate carefully, but they didn't expect that Song Hao was caught by my brothers last night. So they chased him all the way, and unknowingly he chased him to the palace, and then we were caught."

As the assassin said, Tang Yan recorded.

Qi Yan listened and analyzed. Judging from the information explained by the two assassins, the timeline and the occurrence of the matter did match what she knew. It can be seen that Song Hao was chased in the palace and was accidentally hit by King Rui.

"Then, can King Rui know about this? Have you informed other companions?"

Qi Yan asked.

"I don't know, except for the two brothers who ran into Song Hao last night, everyone else knew nothing about it. We were also determined to arrest people at that time and didn't have time to send a signal to our companions."

The two assassins shook their heads repeatedly, obviously they were afraid that one of them would be punished by Qi Yan if they answered incorrectly.

"What exactly do you want to do when Master Min meets King Rui?"

Qi Yan asked again.

"This matter is a lot involved, and it even has a great connection with the predecessor of Jin He, the female official next to Concubine Wei De, who was beheaded."

One of the assassins said mysteriously, "After the discovery of the Baling spy at Master Min's mansion, when King Rui came to mention people, he mentioned two names to Master Min, Jin He and Bai He."

"When Master Min learned that King Rui had some clues about the Baling Spy, and then he thought of a plan."

"At present, the clues in His Highness, King Rui, are incomplete. Master Min suggested that King Rui capture Song Hao and force him to confess the remaining clues. Then he wanted King Rui to control the Baling Spy, so as to disintegrate the Baling Kingdom from within and classify it as King Rui."

"Then, Master Min suggested that as long as King Rui can do this, Master Min was the first to come forward to help King Rui impeach the prince, and connect other officials to advise Emperor Yan, and recommend King Rui as the new prince!"

The two assassins said the whole thing they knew one by one.

Even some details were not left behind, and the explanation was clearly explained.

Qi Yan also kept listening carefully, and she knew that these two people were not lying.

Then the two looked at Qi Yan with a gaze, thinking that Qi Yan let them live.

"You have given a detailed explanation. I, Qi Yan, are not a person who breaks my promise. As long as you are willing to put a note on this record, you can safely leave the palace."

Qi Yan pointed to the record written by Tang Yan and said.

The two assassins naturally did not dare to refuse. They couldn't wait to press their handprints on the paper and waited respectfully for Qi Yan's hair to fall.

Seeing the two of them making a note, Qi Yan really let them go.

"You guys go and go out through the palace gate!"

Qi Yan waved her hand and said.

"Can you really leave?"

"Crown Princess, you really have a lot of adults."

The two assassins looked around and saw the surrounding feathered guards looking at them with a bad expression. At this moment, they still felt like they were dreaming.

The dying person actually saw the light of day again, which made the two of them feel as if they had experienced a baptism in hell, as if they had gained a new life.

"Let you go, just leave quickly and stop disturbing the princess's thoughts."

Rongfeng said unhappily.

The two assassins thanked each other very much, and then left after a lot of gratitude.

"Crown Princess, did you let King Rui go like this? I'm worried that it would be a disaster!"

"It's better to let me follow you and wait until there is no one, click..."

Tang Yan said while doing a neck wiping action.

Tang Yan's worries are right.

Although the two assassins agreed on the surface, they just knew the people but didn’t. Who can guarantee that they would not return to Prince Rui’s Mansion to inform him after leaving the palace?

How can we guarantee that even if these two guys didn’t return to the capital, they didn’t go to collude with their companions?

However, Qi Yan looked at the words on the piece of paper recorded by Tang Yan leisurely and did not take this matter to heart.

"No, these two people still have a function and cannot be killed for the time being."

Qi Yan took a sip of tea and said while repeatedly thinking about the news on the paper.

But the assassin brothers had just left the room and saw two feathered eagle guards dragging Song Hao to pass by with fierce looks outside the other courtyard.

"Isn't that Song Hao?"

"Yes, this guy was the guy we chased last night."

"What is the Eagle Guard doing? It seems that he is going to deal with Song Hao."

"Go ahead and take a look."

The curiosity of the two assassins ignited. Seeing that there was no one around, Tang Yan, Rongfeng and others were all inside the house.

So he followed quietly with the courage.

After leaving the villa, the two of them disappeared from Song Hao and others just now.

See there is a straight road ahead.

The two looked at each other, nodded and walked forward.

The road was quiet and no one was passing by.

Walking all the way to the end of the road, there is a red wall in front of you.

When the two saw a stone brick path on the right, they thought that Song Hao might have been taken away from the path by the two feathered eagle guards.

For this reason, driven by curiosity, the two assassins followed.

As expected, halfway through the path, I saw Song Hao kneeling in the center of a garden from a distance with his back to them.

One of the Feather Eagle Guards pulled out the sword from his waist and said loudly, "This person is a strange behavior and refuses to confess. The prince ordered us to kill him, so there must be no mistake!"

Hearing the words of the Feather Eagle Guard, the two assassins took a look.

Sure enough, Song Hao's back was covered with whip marks. I'm afraid the punishment he received last night was much heavier than both of them.

"It's worthy of being a spy. We brothers can't stand this torture. I didn't expect that Song Hao would resist it even more severely than us."

"What's the use? Didn't you hear that? Your Highness the Crown Prince was angry. Song Hao was stubborn and refused to tell the secret he knew. Your Highness the Crown Prince was going to kill him!"

While talking.
