Mythical Qin: I, Gao Yao, will never be a eunuch!

"Zhao Tuo! I showed you mercy and spared your life, but you repaid my kindness with hatred and treated me like this?" Gao Yao's tone was already filled with murderous intent when he spoke.

On the contrary, Zhao Tuo who was questioned responded calmly, "The winner is the king and the loser is the bandit. Now that things have come to this, I have nothing to say. I can only blame myself for being too greedy at that time. I even thought of cherishing your talent and wanted to recruit you. I didn't expect that I would end up like this now. It's all my own fault."

At this moment, Zhao Tuo seemed to have become indifferent to life and death. He did not kneel down and beg for mercy like ordinary people, fearing death. It was as if he had already expected that Gao Yao in front of him would never let him go easily.

Zhao Tuo stood up straight, looked at Gao Yao firmly, and said slowly: "Gao Yao, I only ask one thing of you, please let my family go. They have nothing to do with this matter and should not be implicated."

Gao Yao narrowed his eyes slightly after hearing this, and after thinking for a moment, he replied: "Well, we can discuss this. But this matter is definitely not something you can do alone. Who is behind this? You must explain everything about all the people involved in this matter. If you tell even a single lie... Humph! Don't blame me for being ruthless!"

Gao Yao knew very well that it was impossible for Zhao Tuo to accomplish this task alone. Although Gao Yao did not expect that the person who did it would be Zhao Tuo at the beginning, it did not mean that he had no defense against Zhao Tuo.

In fact, he had already arranged many spies to closely monitor Zhao Tuo's every move. Without external help, Zhao Tuo alone would never have been able to accomplish such a feat.

Moreover, he had returned to the city suddenly just for Young Master Gao. Moreover, when the number of personal soldiers around Gao Yao was the smallest, he was precisely controlled by the enemy. All these signs indicated that this matter could not be done by one person, and many relevant people must be involved.

If Gao Yao cannot catch all these people and eradicate them, he will definitely be unable to sleep at night and have trouble eating and sleeping! Hearing Gao Yao's words, Zhao Tuo instantly looked embarrassed and looked quite embarrassed. However, after witnessing this scene, Gao Yao did not say a word, but just raised his arm slightly to signal to continue.

Erniu, who was standing at the door of the main hall, immediately understood the deep meaning. At this time, Gao Yao was sitting leisurely on the chair, gently blowing away the hot steam on the surface of the teacup, then sipping the fragrant tea, quietly waiting for Erniu to return.

Not long after, Erniu appeared outside the main hall with a group of people. Among them were not only several haggard and frightened women, but also some young children, even infants in their cradles. They were roughly escorted by Erniu, and their bodies were trembling.

“Ah… wuwu…”

Suddenly, a miserable cry of women and children broke through the sky, like a sharp sword piercing Zhao Tuo's heart. Hearing this heartbreaking sound, Zhao Tuo's face turned pale in an instant. He stood up suddenly and tried to rush towards the group of poor people, but he was held down tightly by the soldiers beside him and could not move at all.

"Let me go! Gao Yao, Gao Yao, you can't treat them like this, come at me alone if you dare!" Zhao Tuo's eyes widened and he shouted at the top of his lungs. However, no matter how he struggled, he could not get rid of the strong restraints of his personal soldiers.

"General Zhao Tuo, your words are too polite. I know you love your family deeply and I understand that these people have helped you. But if you don't tell me the truth, I'm afraid I will toss and turn every night and have trouble falling asleep. So, I hope you can understand my difficulties."

Gao Yao put down the teacup in his hand and slowly walked in front of Zhao Tuo with a sly smile on his face.

At this time, Gao Yao came to Zhao Tuo while talking, squatted down, and waved his hand to let the soldiers on both sides let go. Without someone holding him down, Zhao Tuo, who was bound by both sides, still ran to his family.

"You still don't want to say it?"

Seeing Zhao Tuo's family crying bitterly, Gao Yao finally understood that Zhao Tuo was also harboring evil intentions. He had calculated that Gao Tuo would never let his family survive. In this case, Zhao Tuo would naturally not explain any problems.

"Two Bulls"

"Here"

"Since General Zhao Tuo is unwilling to confess, he will be temporarily detained in the prison. I will make a decision after reporting to His Majesty."

Zhao Tuo was slightly stunned when he heard Gao Yao's words. He had never expected Gao Yao to say such a thing. It really caught him off guard. If he really had to report to His Majesty, he wouldn't have to die. Not only would he not have to die, but there might be other opportunities.

"By the way, lock up everyone and gag them. Starting from two days, start with Lord Zhao Tuo's wife. Cut off one hand every day, cook it, and use it as food. Remember to find a good doctor, and don't let anyone die. Take turns to kill one person after another, including children. But General Zhao Tuo is an important official of the court, and you must not harm General Zhao Tuo. You must make sure that General Zhao Tuo is well fed. Do you understand?"

“Yes…Yes.”

As Gao Yao spoke, everyone present felt a chill run down their spines. Even Erniu was a little frightened when he answered. As for Zhao Tuo, his face turned pale and he stared at Gao Yao with wide eyes. He had never expected that Gao Yao could be so cruel.

"I said it, I said it all!"

"Oh, General Zhao Tuo, you are open-minded. Tell me now."

After hearing this, Gao Yao nodded in satisfaction, then waved his hand and finally had everyone else dismissed. At this time, Zhao Tuo also slowly named the people involved in this matter, while Xiao He was recording on the side.

"I have told you everything I know. Can Gao Yao let my family go?"

After explaining everything to everyone involved in the incident, Zhao Tuo asked Gao Yao for a chance for his family to survive. Zhao Tuo knew very well that he was doomed, but he naturally didn't want his family to die with him.

"That's all. Not necessarily, Zhao Tuo. Where did those assassins come from? You're not going to tell me that they are your captive assassins, are you?"

"Of course..."

"Zhao Tuo, it seems that you are still not honest. This is your last chance. If you don't want to say anything, you don't need to say anything. Just wait for the meal."

Gao Yao said this for a reason. When he fought with those assassins before, Gao Yao could clearly recognize that these people's methods were specially trained, specifically for assassination. Even when fighting, they were willing to sacrifice their lives. This was not the way that Zhao Tuo, who was born in the military camp, would think.
