Lin Xiner followed Yang Chen into the secret room again.
Walking to the thief, Lin Xiner squatted down.
Seeing the woman's dress, the thief raised his head, looked at Lin Xiner, and smiled, "What? Prince Xuan used a beauty trick again?"
"If you tell me where the dagger is hidden, I will rescue you." Lin Xiner used the method of sound transmission through the empty valley to transmit her voice to only the thief.
The thief was stunned and glanced at Yang Chen, who had a normal expression on the side, to make sure that he had not heard what the woman said at all.
Prince Xuan's subordinates would not remain indifferent upon hearing such conditions. Moreover, if this woman was sent by Prince Xuan, they would not use the word "rescue", but should directly say "release".
However, she clearly followed Ximen Jingxuan in.
The thief's eyes rolled in circles, he looked at Lin Xiner, and he laughed, "Don't waste your time and make excuses. No matter what means you use, hard or soft, I won't do it."
I can say it. Hey——"
The pain in his leg made the thief take a breath, glanced at the dog beside him that had eaten the entire piece of meat, smacked his lips and said, "Sir, I've fed you, a beast."
"Animals can't be fed enough." Lin Xiner glanced at the thief's blood-stained legs and said coldly.
"I know that a woman like you is definitely not simple. She is also a killer when she goes out to do things. Come on!" The thief stretched his head forward and lowered his head. "Kill me directly and feed it to the dog. If you blink your eyes, I am not a son of a bitch."
of."
"Prince Xuan won't kill you directly." Lin Xiner raised her hand and pushed the head back, "He doesn't care about your life or death, just feed the dog little by little and let nature take its course."
Lin Xiner said and then switched to Konggu sound transmission, "Do you think a dagger can have much effect on Prince Xuan who controls half of the world? He is just curious about what you stole from Princess Xuan's house. You don't tell me.
, he can naturally ask Princess Xuan what she is hiding, or he can simply not bother to ask."
The thief looked at Lin Xiner. He didn't know Princess Xuan, and naturally he didn't know who she was, but she accurately said the word "dagger" one after another. Prince Xuan never mentioned it before when he interrogated him, and,
Whenever it comes to daggers, this woman knows how to use Konggu Sound Transmission.
But there was one thing. He had doubts before doing this. He didn't know what the Lord's purpose was. He actually asked him to risk his life to steal an ordinary dagger. And it seemed that he, a big thief, was going to die.
That’s it.
The thief stared straight at Lin Xiner. She said that Prince Xuan didn't care, so she secretly asked him, so she must have cared?
Lin Xiner saw the doubt on the thief's face, turned her back to Yang Chen and smiled slightly, and continued the voice transmission in the empty valley, "That dagger is evidence of Princess Xuan's affair with Shuiyue Palace, so I naturally want to take it back."
The words "Shui Yue Palace" made the thief's eyes light up, and he looked Lin Xiner up and down.
"Yes, I am from Shuiyue Palace. If you tell me the whereabouts of the dagger, I will try to rescue you without having to face Ximen Jingxuan or leak the secret to him." Lin Xiner continued.
"Hehe, hehe, hahaha!" The thief changed from a low smile to a laugh.
In Yang Chen's opinion, the thief paused for a moment and laughed a little arrogantly after listening to what Wang Yue said about feeding the dog.
"Shut up, it's time to cut the second piece of meat soon." Yang Chen stopped the thief's laughter and said coldly.
Lin Xiner's sharp gaze sent a warning message to the thief. She had to make a decision as soon as possible. It would not be easy for her, an undercover agent of Shuiyue Palace, here.
"Haha." The thief chuckled again, "If I tell you where the things are hidden, will you still ask me who ordered me? The questions will never end, and I will never be able to truly escape.
Lose."
What he said was meant for Yang Chen and Lin Xiner.
Shuiyue Palace? How could he, who often walks by the river, not have thought that Shuiyue Palace would not give up tracing the things behind him after rescuing him, but he did not dare to betray his lord, and would rather die by himself.
"Feed the dog, it's up to you. My life is as long as I can live." The thief's legs were clearly in pain, but he still looked nonchalant.
"I'll rescue you first. You can leave after you tell me the whereabouts of the dagger. Just tell the person who ordered you that you didn't find the dagger." Lin Xiner said through the empty valley.
The thief's eyes flickered slightly again. No one wanted to die. If the people who followed Shuiyue Palace could escape from Ximen Jingxuan, no matter what the people in Shuiyue Palace would do to him, there would always be more chances to survive. If forced, at that time
No matter how dead he is.
Lin Xiner could see the thief wavering because of her concession. For her now, finding the dagger was the most important thing. The person behind the scenes, since he was hidden so deeply, would not be easily found. She would rather use
The thief's life is only in exchange for the whereabouts of the dagger. If he can't escape, he will definitely fight with the man behind the scenes, so don't worry for a while.
"What a tough talk." Lin Xin'er stood up and looked down at the thief, "It's really unlucky to stay with such a person for a long time. Prince Xuan is right, it's best to leave him here and let him perish!"
After saying that, Lin Xiner turned around and walked towards the door of the secret room.
Yang Chen was slightly startled. He didn't expect Wang Yue to give up so quickly. He originally hoped that she would really ask something.
"If you can survive until night, I can rescue you. Whether you can survive or not depends on your performance."
Lin Xiner's figure disappeared in the darkness of the secret passage, and the last voice reached the thief's ears alone. She knew that the thief planned to use her to escape from Prince Xuan's Mansion before making any plans, but it was she who obtained the whereabouts of the dagger.
The bottom line is, I hope he will be able to understand the interests and know the trade-offs by then.
Lin Xiner went back to Mo Yaxuan directly. Ximen Jingxuan still wouldn't be there. She had been busy for two days and didn't sleep well, so she decided to take a rest during the day after dinner.
Imperial Palace, Cuizhu Pavilion.
Gu Qingcheng was sitting aside, quietly listening to Ximen Yin playing the piano. Looking at the entire court, he was the only minister who had this honor.
After the song was played, Ximen Yin straightened his sleeves, stood up, walked to the table, and poured himself a cup of tea that had been brewed.
"Qingcheng, what can you find out in the past two days?" Ximen Yin asked.
"There are no clues yet." Gu Qingcheng shook his head, with a rare sad look on his face, "I'm afraid that my reputation will be ruined by this case."
"If you can't find out, then no one can seek justice for Dr. Chen." Ximen Yin sighed slightly, "If the assassin points directly at me, it won't bother me and lets him escape. But Chen
The imperial doctor died in vain because of me. If the real culprit cannot be caught, I will really be ashamed of his family."
