In the backyard of the hospital, Ji Wuhen led a small group of people to survey the surrounding environment, and it was inevitable that another accident would happen.

The Seventh Prince was sitting under the corridor, with a handful of melon seeds in his hands at some point, looking at the busy group of people in the corner, he couldn't help laughing: "The third brother is quite diligent."

Being coldly received by the emperor one after another, he must be in a hurry, and he doesn't want to let go of any chance to stand up.

Ji Yunyan glanced lightly along his line of sight, no emotion could be seen on his jade-like face.

What he was worried about was not Ji Wuhen, but female officer Wuliang.

"Fifth Brother, why are you frowning so tightly? Didn't Imperial Doctor Zhang say that Wu Liang envoys will not be in danger of their lives."

While talking, the Seventh Prince leaned against the pillar of the corridor, as if he had an attitude that if the sky falls, it has nothing to do with me.

Ji Yunyan's expression was frosty: "Whether there is a fear of life or not can't change the assassination of Wuliang's envoy in Daxia."

The Seventh Prince curled his lips, feeling bored, turned his head and saw a young man sitting quietly, looking not far away, with quiet eyes, like a young man in a daze.

He twitched his eyebrows, and for some reason, he blurted out a sentence: "Fifth Brother, King Ning misses Princess Ning, right?"

Looking at this distraught look, those who didn't know thought they had been separated from Princess Ning for three to five years.

"Don't talk nonsense." Ji Yunyan said displeasedly, how can King Ning be such a person who puts his children's affection on his face.

The Seventh Prince blinked, his face full of innocence.

Ji Yunyan didn't want to say anything more to him, but when she turned her head, she saw the expression on the young man's face, and was momentarily stunned.

"Fifth brother, let me just say it." The seventh prince pursed the corner of his lower lip, and he knew he was right.

Ji Yunyan remained silent, and suddenly didn't know what to say.

Seventh brother, it seems that he guessed right.

Xiao Yunheng didn't know that he had been misunderstood by the two of them, the assassin's face flashed in his mind, and he always felt that he had seen it somewhere.

His memory has always been good, but now it suddenly appeared, and his memory is a little fuzzy.

In the medical hall, female officer Wu Liang had already passed out.

"His Majesty Huidi, Master Linrui was assassinated in Daxia for no reason, and his life is dying. His Majesty Huidi must give us Wuliang people an explanation!"

"My envoy rest assured, I will definitely find the murderer."

The Wuliang envoy who spoke snorted coldly, not satisfied with Emperor Hui's perfunctory statement, "Isn't the assassin already caught, His Majesty Huidi might as well hand him over to us."

"The envoy can rest assured that this person's sudden assassination must have a purpose. After the results of the interrogation by the people of the Imperial City Division, this person will still be handed over to you."

What he wants to know is who is behind the instigation.

Daqi, Miaojiang, or Xiling, who participated in the court meeting to pray for blessings, could not escape the suspicion.

The Wuliang envoy hesitated for a moment, met the eyes of several other people, and then asked, "I don't know when the Imperial City Secretary of your country will be able to get the result of the interrogation?"

"My lord, the interrogation of a case cannot be controlled with just a few words." The first assistant who was wearing a blue-brown crane men's imperial uniform replied.

"So, His Majesty Huidi can't be sure when it will be found out?"

Facing the envoy Wuliang's angry questioning, Emperor Hui knew very well that he could only try to appease him at the moment.

"Within an hour, the assassin will definitely speak."

The chief assistant and the surrounding ministers were astonished when they heard this.

Why did His Majesty make such a hasty decision? The Imperial City Secretary's method is high, but the assassin has been taken down for half an hour, and there has been no response.

What if after an hour, the assassin just killed him and didn't speak.

Among the crowd, only Shangshu of the Ministry of Justice was so calm.

Your Majesty has his own reasons for saying this.

What the Imperial City Secretary can't do, isn't there still Princess Ning.

The Wuliang envoy was quiet for a moment, then smiled with satisfaction: "Since His Majesty Huidi said so, then we will wait for an hour."

An hour later, if Daxia couldn't give a satisfactory answer, they could only do it themselves.

After the envoy entered the back room, Emperor Hui asked the people from the Imperial City Department to look for Xiao Yunheng.

"My lord, Your Majesty has ordered you to find the princess immediately."

"it is good."

He could guess why.

Probably the people in the Imperial City Division are not very useful, and they can't even pry the assassin's mouth open.

After leaving the hospital, he rode on his horse and hurried back to the palace.

The raised dust followed Huidi's guards who came to protect him.

In the firewood room of the medical hall, because tools were limited, Huang Chengsi found a tongs for charcoal fire in the medical hall, and it burned red in the stove.

The hot iron tongs fell on the flesh, and soon there was a smell of burnt flesh in the room.

Accompanying it was the assassin's painful wailing.

At this moment, the originally pretty face was drenched with sweat, the hair was sticking to the face, and the scorched flesh of the heart was smeared with smoke, which was a disgusting smell.

"The mouth is still quite hard."

Seeing that he was still silent, the Secretary of Huangcheng took back the iron tongs and ordered his men to go down to get the salt water.

The assassin's head was drooping, and the severe pain spread to his whole body, which made his whole body sink down, but he still clenched his teeth and refused to let go.

Soon the men brought salt water.

"General Zheng."

A young man followed and opened the door of the woodshed.

The Secretary of the Imperial City glanced at the young man and recognized his identity: "Xiao Ning, what are you doing here?"

When investigating the spies of the State of Qi before, Huangcheng Division had cooperated with Shangshu of the Ministry of Justice, that is, he knew the new capable subordinate who was recruited by Shangshu of the Ministry of Justice.

"I heard that this person refused to confess, Master Shang Shu specially asked me to help the general." Ning Yi approached calmly.

The assassin with his limbs bound raised his head and looked at the young man who suddenly appeared without any expression on his face.

Huangcheng Secretary was stunned for a moment, "Do you have a solution?"

The young man in front of him was only in his 20s, and he had a very good appearance. If he hadn't learned that he was an orphan from the Minister of the Ministry of Justice, he would probably have recognized him as a descendant of some honorable family.

Even though Ning Yi has the ability to track down people, he is knowledgeable in interrogation.

Ning Yi took out a small porcelain bottle and handed it over: "I got this by accident when I was investigating the secret agents of the Qi State. I thought it was useless. After being eaten by mistake two days ago, I found out that it was actually made by the previous killer. s things."

After receiving the small porcelain bottle, Huang Chengsi was secretly surprised.

Of course he knew about the reputation of the killer door.

When the assassin heard these three words, his calm expression changed.

"General Zheng, as long as you let the assassin take this thing down, he will obey your orders." Ning Yi introduced the effect of the medicine.

This was the only thing he brought out after the Killer Gate was destroyed.

It's a pity that the medicinal materials used to make this medicine have also disappeared, and the one in this porcelain bottle is also the last one left in the world.

But it doesn't matter, it's worth it to exchange a medicine for the chance to show his face in front of Emperor Hui.

The assassin's eyes widened, finally unable to maintain his composure.

When General Zheng heard this, he couldn't wait for his subordinates to force the assassin to take the medicine.
