Bastards

Interrogating Jia Yixiu is a big project.

This is a bold, dark, yet meticulous lunatic.Crazy, it's hard to deal with.It was easy to kill, but difficult to get something out of his mouth.

Cui Yu and Yang Xuan must be fully prepared and spend enough energy and time.

Fortunately, Guan San appeared in time, and some clues from the past years were too crucial. Without Jia Yixiu's knowledge, they had already grasped many cards.

The other party was determined to keep it a secret, and it happened that they knew something that was impossible to divulge.In this way, you can calm down, analyze Jia Yixiu's thoughts and plans according to his personality, and then make use of them...

Cui Yu and Yang Xuan met head-to-head to discuss and supplement for a long time. Slowly, a phased strategic plan was completed.

Yang Xuan's eyes were shining brightly, and he picked up Cui Yu and threw it away: "Qingqing is so smart! I'm sure you can scare that surnamed Jia!"

Cui Yu patted Yang Xuan's shoulder vigorously, looking at the ground that sometimes rose and fell in horror: "You let me down!"

While talking, Yang Xuan gave the order, and the following will be ready in a short time.

Yang Xuan shook his head and took Cui Yu to the place where Jia Yixiu was detained.

Choose another clean cell, and place a screen in the dark with the same color as the wall. Behind the screen, put tables, chairs, tea sets, snacks, hand stoves, and soft cushions. This is Cui Yu's position.

In the middle of the cell, there is a table and two chairs, one table and one chair are normal, the style is simple and elegant, and there are carved flowers, there is hot tea and snacks on the table, this is for Yang Xuan.

Opposite the table, six feet away, is a prison chair, made of metal, nailed to the ground, with shackles and handcuffs, specially used to control prisoners. Needless to say, you can tell who it is for at a glance.

The light in the room is dim, creating a very gloomy atmosphere. Due to the ingenious visual angle, Yang Xuan can see Cui Yu, what Cui Yu is doing, what expression, what hints, all clearly But Jia Yixiu couldn't see it at all, so he wouldn't know that there was another person in this room.

When everything was ready, Yang Xuan raised his hand and asked someone to bring Jia Yixiu over.

There was no water for three days, and he still couldn't sleep well. Jia Yixiu was so depressed that his eyes were dull. When he was sitting on the prison chair, it took him a long time to realize who the person in front of him was.

Prince Da'an, Yang Xuan!

His pupils shrank suddenly.

"Hey, Mr. Jia," Yang Xuan raised one corner of his mouth, his smile was evil, and his voice was drawn out, with a strange sound, "Why haven't I seen you for three days, and look so depressed?"

"His Royal Highness is humble."

As soon as he opened his mouth, Jia Yixiu was almost startled by his own voice, why was it so hoarse, as if it had been honed by sand!Throat still hurts like a pinprick!

This prince is really different from those father and son, shameless enough!

He held back the itch in his throat, held back the cough, and stared directly at Yang Xuan with his sinister eyes.

When he was still in good spirits, he thought about it over and over again.

It's because he has too little information and he doesn't know how to hear. He didn't know that Cui Yu was taken by the crown prince.

It was because he was blind, he shouldn't have kidnapped Abu Ke'er to mess with Cui Yu before he figured out what happened, he deserved the danger.

But this is purely accidental.

His affairs, what power he has, who is above him, what backing cards he has... The crown prince doesn't even know.But he ran into a secret that he shouldn't know, and the prince would not let him go easily.

Who is Cui Mata?That is a person with a super high level of mystic arts, who is known as a half-immortal, not to mention King Chang of Yue, even Emperor Taikang respected him and asked about the strategy.It doesn't matter if such a person stays away from the court and doesn't get involved in fighting for positions, but he followed the prince!

The prince's people naturally acted for the convenience of the prince. Was Cui Yu's contact with other princes and even Emperor Taikang intentional to pave the way for the prince?

If he were the crown prince, and someone knew about such a secret, the first action would be to silence him.

But the crown prince didn't kill him, he just locked him up and tortured him, why?

Displeased?Want to make him die more uncomfortable?Or that Abu Keer girl...the weight is not low, and you want to vent your anger on her?

Jia Yixiu expressed doubts about the situation.But as long as you are alive, you have a chance.Waiting for him to probe a little bit and get a definite answer, he will have his own way to save himself...

The prince is just a prince, he hasn't become the emperor yet, has he?The foundation is so shallow, if you want to go up, you need a lot of things.It just so happened that Jia Yixiu had no other skills, but he was good at this aspect. The secrets he had known over the years, and the handles he had caught were just what the prince needed, and he could use them, not too many.

He will let the prince treat him well, and he will never be able to leave him in the future!

Jia Yixiu is mentally weak now, and his mind is a little messed up. He can't talk nonsense in this situation... He is also smart, and he took the initiative to speak and raised his hand at the prince. The sound of the shackles echoed in the empty room: "This is... ...The prince's way of hospitality?"

The plan was made early, Yang Xuan was not in a hurry, asked Concubine Tian Gui about her adulterer, and sneered, "Did Mrs. Jia have any misunderstandings about Gu? Do you still want Gu to give you a good confession for the person who hurt Gu! "

Before he finished speaking, he kicked the table violently with his big foot. The table was very heavy, and it only slid slightly on the ground, but the loud sound was harsh and terrifying.

Jia Yixiu closed his eyes: "Could Your Highness... be kind and give some water to my servants?"

Yang Xuan raised his hand, and a waiter standing beside him came over, returned the table that Yang Xuan had kicked away, and fed Jia Yixiu water by the way.

Jia Yixiu was dying of thirst, this bowl of water was like rain!What he drank was eager and rude, with no image.

"Again, give me another bowl!"

Yang Xuan sneered: "Don't support your Master Jia!"

Hearing this, the subordinates naturally took the cups and left without feeding Jia Yixiu.

Jia Yixiu still felt uncomfortable, his whole body ached, he was shaking from the cold, and his mind was a little numb, but this bowl of water was really the source of life, which made him feel much more comfortable in an instant.

Yang Xuan still didn't speak, just folded his arms and sneered, waiting for Jia Yixiu to make a move.

Sure enough, Jia Yixiu couldn't exhaust him. After being locked up for three days, his heart was not so stable. After taking two deep breaths, he opened his mouth: "Why doesn't Your Highness kill me?"

Yang Xuan squinted: "Having kidnapped Gu's people and stepped on Gu's face, how dare you expect to die happily?"

Jia Yixiu sighed softly: "Your Highness and I... don't have such a big enmity. Since His Highness returned to the court, he should know that everything can be discussed... It's just a small misunderstanding, why bother to kidnap a girl from you?" Such a big fight?"

Yang Xuan followed his words and said, "A girl? More than just a girl!"

He lost his temper again and kicked the table hard.

The ear-piercing sound startled the heart beating wildly, almost jumping out of his mouth...

Jia Yixiu lowered his eyes, very satisfied.

With such a high spirit, it seems that the girl is really important, maybe the prince has done something, prepared something, it is an indispensable dark chess move...

In this way, it makes sense.

The crown prince didn't kill him, not because he didn't want to kill him, but because he wanted to torture him well, and let out this dark air!

As soon as he figured it out, and as soon as he was sure, Jia Yixiu came back angrily.

It's very simple if you don't want to die, let yourself be useful to the prince!

Delay in this situation is counterproductive, it is far better to go straight in, so a low laugh escaped his throat: "Do you want to be on the Great Treasure, Your Highness?"

As soon as these words came out, the room fell silent.

Cui Mata behind the screen clasped his hands together, his eyes sparkled brightly, it was done!

Yang Xuan and Cui Yu looked at each other silently, and the light in their eyes was shining brightly.

Sure enough, just as they thought, Jia Yixiu would be suspicious of the current situation, and would find various reasons to test it out, even because of his three-day experience, he was more anxious than them.As long as you satisfy him, he will be hooked...

"Presumptuous!" Yang Xuan slapped the table with his big palm, his eyes were full of anger, "Is someone like you worthy of knowing what I'm going to do!"

With this performance, Jia Yixiu put another word on Yang Xuan's head: impulsive.

The prince undoubtedly has certain abilities, and everyone can see his performance after returning to Luoyang.But the prince is also upright and reckless. Seeing that he dared to fight hard with the king of Yue, directly confronted Concubine Tian, ​​and sometimes spoke rudely to Emperor Taikang, he knew that this one had talents in civil and military affairs, and Wu did a good job. It can be seen that he is a general, and his writing is not good enough. He has small cleverness, but not great wisdom.

It's okay to be a king who helps the emperor to expand the territory, but to be an emperor is less scheming.

Jia Yixiu didn't make any detours, and said directly: "A soldier who doesn't want to be a general is not a good soldier. Your Highness is a prince and has the dignity of a prince. If you don't dare to think about this position, your servants will laugh at your highness for being cowardly. "

"solitary--"

Jia Yixiu stopped him, and looked straight up: "I don't want to die, I'm willing to saddle up for the prince and help the prince rise!"

Yang Xuan settled down, hugged her arms again, and slowly sat back on the chair, laughing loudly: "Gu has never seen such a cheeky person! Mr. Jia, Mr. Jia, why do you think that if you want to recommend yourself, Gu has to use it?" you?"

He looked Jia Yixiu up and down, and narrowed his eyes: "Or, is this an alternative method by Mrs. Jia, wanting to make the orphan angry and angry, and directly order you to be killed? Uh...it's really ingenious."

Jia Yixiu's expression remained the same, but he still kept smiling, and he sat down on the prison chair with the imposing manner of an official's desk: "Since I dare to speak, I have enough skills to rely on. Your Highness, you—" He elongated his voice, creating a Mysterious, meaningful atmosphere, "It's not long before the dynasty, the fledglings are still fledgling, it will take time to expand the network and attract talents."

"But no matter how well you perform, and how much you have the title of heir, the emperor doesn't like you, he only likes Concubine Tian's two sons. Even if King Chang of Yue is demoted, this special honor has not changed. Sooner or later Tonight, the two princes and titles will return. Your Highness is different, there is no staff, and there is not enough time. It is difficult to gather the strength of your subordinates. It may be difficult to overcome the mother and son..."

As he spoke, he observed the prince's expression.

The prince's body was tense, his face expressionless, but his body language was full of loopholes.

Hooked!

He said, they are all dragon sons, how could they lose that desire to win?

Jia Yixiu was persuasive and persuasive: "Jia is not talented, and I would like to help His Majesty."

Yang Xuan still didn't speak, but she was not as firm as before.

Jia Yixiu continued to speak boldly: "If Your Highness agrees, Jia is willing to submit a certificate of approval, and His Highness has checked that there is no problem, then it will not be too late to agree to Jia!"

Yang Xuan's body shook, but he didn't accept Jia Yixiu easily. His slender phoenix eyes slowly narrowed, with sharp arcs at the tip of his eyes, and he tapped the table with his fingertips, showing a chilling look: "Master Jia thinks Gu is so easy to coax." ? Who did Mr. Jia serve allegiance to before, could it be that Gu doesn’t know?”

The light in Jia Yixiu's eyes trembled, and he was about to lower his eyes when he suddenly saw the prince's feet under the table.

The face is so sharp, the posture is so determined, it looks as stable as possible, but the feet placed under the table are shaking uneasy left and right.

The prince is deceiving him!

The prince doesn't have any evidence, so it's impossible to know who he is loyal to. He is just cheating him with his usual thinking!

The corners of Jia Yixiu's lips raised slightly.

This is normal.

If he accepted his allegiance from the very beginning without any doubt, then he would suspect that this was a game...

Thinking back and forth, Jia Yixiu's self-confidence doubled, and he raised his head to meet Yang Xuan's eyes, his gaze was very calm: "That's right, I did serve the King of Yue."

Yang Xuan frowned slightly: "Zeng?"

"Your Highness has also seen my current situation. I did something wrong and took Miss Abu Keer captive, but why did I take her captive? It was because she had a good relationship with Cui Yu, and I wanted to ask Cui Yu to help me get rid of it. Difficulty. What is this dilemma... I don’t even need to tell His Highness that I understand that Prime Minister Zhuang You has spared no effort to kill me, and I am powerless to stop him. How can I get through this without asking for foreign aid?”

"I and Zhuang Youxiang are both from the King of Yue. I swear to God, I have never done anything against the King of Yue. I have always been conscientious and sincere, but what have I got in exchange? Zhuang Youxiang deceived me so much, and the King of Yue sat on his back. , ignored, didn't even say a word... How can such an attitude not make me feel cold?"

"I, Jia Yixiu, didn't feel sorry for anyone, but they betrayed me so much. I chose another hero, what's wrong! Your Highness, you are the crown prince, and you have suffered so much from being oppressed by the mother and son of Yue Wang since you were young. Knowing you, hearing your name, what's wrong with you!"

The more Jia Yixiu spoke, the more fluent he became, and the louder he spoke, he was very confident!He almost wanted to praise his wit. He came up with such a rigorous logic so quickly, and he couldn't find a reason for his mistakes. It's amazing!

"The two of us should form an alliance! With me, Your Highness is like a tiger with wings added, and the future is promising. With Your Highness, I have a bright future and a great career. Your Highness and I are the strong and good ministers, and we should get together!"

Jia Yixiu's words were sonorous and powerful, and he was moved by himself. In such an atmosphere, if the crown prince refuses to agree, he will be the biggest fool in the world!

Cui Mata almost spit out his tea after taking a sip.

This Jia Yixiu is really shameless!Still worthy of anyone, dare to swear, ah bah!How many people has this bastard killed!

The prince... The prince said that it was really hard to hold back the laughter.

In order to match Jia Yixiu's mood and IQ, he acted in such a way, "exploring" and "guiding", paying attention to all kinds of small movements and details, is it easy for him?

Looking over from the corner of his eyes, the one behind the screen is holding a teacup and laughing, his eyebrows and eyes are crooked, and his face is almost buried by the big fur collar!

Yang Xuan coughed hard twice before he could hold back his smile, and looked at Jia Yixiu with a serious face: "The King of Yue is the old master you have followed for many years—"

Jia Yixiu smiled wryly: "I follow my master, but I just want to gain a future. Let's not talk about the future now. I will lose my life..."

The prince didn't answer, but just called the attendants over, pointed to the snacks on the table: "Here, serve some for Lord Jia."

Jia Yixiu had been hungry for a few days, and he was already drooling over the snacks on the table. He used all his mental strength to hold back from looking there again and again. Now when the crown prince spoke, he immediately understood what the crown prince meant, so he slowed down. Yes, he has hope!

He gulped down his snacks, almost rolling his eyes from choking.

After finishing his snacks and drinking some water, Jia Yixiu spoke without waiting for the prince to ask questions, "I know some of the King Yue's personal contacts..."

He let out several people, including six important officials.

The prince didn't move.

Jia Yixiu's heart sank: "I still know something..."

In a certain year and a certain month, what did the King of Yue do, what evidence was left behind, and where were they; some.

The prince still didn't move.

Jia Yixiu's heart beat a little.

After a long time, the prince knocked on the table, his voice was cold: "This thing just wants to prevaricate Gu...Master Jia, it seems that you are not really optimistic about Gu, you want to submit to Gu."

Jia Yixiu's heart skipped a beat, this prince, don't be fooled!

That's right, he should have thought earlier that although the prince is impulsive and lacks great wisdom, he has enough cleverness and the greed of the royal family. What he said may not necessarily be weightless, but it is not enough.

He has to make a big deal out of it.

Jia Yixiu lowered his eyelids and gritted his teeth: "King Chang has made some moves recently!"

"Oh?" The prince was very interested, crossed his hands on his chin, and leaned forward, "Let's listen."

……

This day's meeting ended with Yang Xuan getting a lot of secrets.

Someone took Jia Yixiu back and told him to take good care of him, Yang Xuan left in a hurry.

After he left, Jia Yixiu was waited on, took a comfortable hot bath, changed to a cell with better conditions, and delivered delicious dishes... Jia Yixiu ate a round belly, and in the dead of night, hugged the quilt to each other Laughing at the wall.

It worked!

When the prince confirms the authenticity of those things, he will be released and invited as a guest of honor!

At the same time, Yang Xuan held Cui Yu in his arms, looking at the latest things he got, he was also very satisfied.

"It's still Qingqing who is amazing!" He kissed Cui Yu, "So many things were fished out of Jia Yixiu's mouth!"

This lunatic's mouth is the most difficult to pry, and torture is not as effective as this!

Cui Yu pushed his head away: "I've been drinking, it stinks."

"It's better to thank yourself. His Royal Highness's acting skills are also making rapid progress, which is amazing!"

Yang Xuan sighed: "This Jia Yixiu is indeed a bit capable. Few can compare to his skill in spying on secrets. For example, this concubine is actually a member of the King of Yue County, and the King of Chang County has actually done it in private. There are so many things... My network is so big, I haven't heard the slightest rumor."

After eating the snacks, Cui Yu gently wiped his hands with a handkerchief, and his voice was a little weak: "Unfortunately, this is probably the limit of what he can say, even the king of Changjun is sold, no matter how much, I'm afraid I won't dare to say more. "

"It's okay, it's not our intention to control us, these are just additional surprises. Next, according to the plan, it's time to give him a big move."

Yang Xuan looked at Cui Yu, and Cui Yu just turned his head slightly and made eye contact with him.

Cui Yu was stunned, and smiled with crooked eyebrows, his smile was very bright: "Then His Royal Highness, please behave well."

……

Another three days passed, and it was still the same cell, with simple tables and chairs, separated by a screen in the dark.

Jia Yixiu smiled warmly: "How about it, Your Highness has confirmed everything? Jia's submission of a certificate of honor is not low?"

The prince didn't sit on the chair this time, but stood in front of the table, looking down at Jia Yixiu: "Gu agrees with what you said, but Gu doesn't believe that you can submit to Gu. You betrayed the king of Yue County today, and he will , you can betray Gu.”

Jia Yixiu was stunned.

This script is different from what I imagined!

Shouldn't the prince immediately invite him as his own, so as to appease him, and get drunk with wine to show his intimacy!

But thinking about it again, the prince's behavior is not wrong. Impulsiveness does not mean that he will not be cautious. The prince has lived alone for so many years, and there are dangers everywhere. It is normal to be wary of people.

He provoked each other with words: "The prince's words made Jia speechless. But all heroes in the world have the courage, the prince dare not even take such a risk, why talk about the whole world!"

He also has a temper.He wants to stretch the prince.

"It's not that Gu has no courage, but that you have too little courage for Gu." Yang Xuan walked into Jia Yixiu step by step, "Master Jia is still too wary of Gu, and has too many reservations. If not, Mr. Jia might as well talk in detail. Let’s talk, why did you poison Guan San back then?”

It was as if there was a knife blade in his eyes, and the knife cut all at Jia Yixiu's vitals.

In an instant, Jia Yixiu's sweat came down.

What happened back then...how could the crown prince know!

That's right, Guan San is now the Prince's man.

It was he who was careless.

Right now, at this moment, the prince asked this question just as a test, to see whether he is sincere, whether he dares to tell the truth, or... has other purposes?

For example——his backer, the person who gave birth to King Chang by the concubine Tongtian.

No, it's impossible!The prince should not know about this!

The prince didn't seem to notice the horror in Jia Yixiu's eyes, and continued to ask, "Why did you kill him back then?"

Jia Yixiu didn't have any time to think!
