Chapter 1220: Kill three birds with one stone (9)
Chapter 1220 Three birds with one stone (9)
Eleven Niang burst into tears.
Ning Yue cast a sideways glance at Eleven Niang, but said nothing. Although it was Eleven Niang's fault that allowed those people to succeed this time, Geng Yun's intentions were really vicious. He asked her to negotiate, examine Xuanyin, and assassinate the elder brother. Three birds with one stone, calculated to the extreme!
If the eldest brother really died, from the perspective of the game, she would not be able to go back and kill Patriarch Geng, because once Patriarch Geng died, Princess Deqing's life would lose its value.
Already lost his eldest brother, do he have to pay for an innocent princess? Lose the lives of their envoys?
This is what a fool would do.
Geng Yun had calculated exactly this point, so he dared to blatantly assassinate in the Marshal's Mansion. He even counted that his eldest brother would send Rong Lin to protect her, but unfortunately he missed Rong Lin.
He thought Rong Lin would obey his elder brother, but he didn't expect Rong Lin to learn to say no.
But even though her elder brother was safe and sound, Ning Yue still couldn't forgive Geng Yun's insidiousness. She will ask Geng Yun for this price tonight!
…
In the dungeon, King Xuan was interrogating Patriarch Geng, and the jailer reported: "Your Highness, the commander-in-chief is asking to see Princess Yinjun."
King Xuan nodded: "Please!"
It was rare for King Xuan to pick up this piece of gold in the Marshal's Mansion, so he naturally had a good time with Lixian Corporal. He personally greeted the two at the prison gate, and greeted them with a smile: "It's so late, haven't the Marshal and Princess Princess rested yet?"
He said this as if she and Rong Lin were sleeping in the same bed. Ning Yue smiled, not in the mood to joke, and said: "I heard that Your Highness encountered some difficulties in interrogating Patriarch Geng, so I came here to help His Highness solve problems."
King Xuan glanced at Rong Lin beside Ning Yue, and his mind was spinning rapidly. Rong Lin was the number one general in southern Xinjiang, and his reputation was even higher than that of Qu Lao, but he always only listened to Rong Qing. Rong Qing asked him to fight. He went to fight; Rong Qing asked him to suppress the bandits, so he went to suppress the bandits; even when Rong Qing returned to Xiliang, he followed, almost becoming half of Xiliang. The princess of the county is Rong Qing's younger sister. Her words should... also represent the meaning of the handsome, right? Rong Lin looked at the sky lazily, which further strengthened the guess in King Xuan's heart.
King Xuan laughed and said, "It's indeed a bit difficult. Even torture can't pry his mouth open."
"That's because His Highness didn't use punishment."
King Xuan was taken aback: "Huh?" He used the most difficult torture in the palace, and could there be more severe torture?
Ning Yue smiled slightly and said: "If your Highness trusts me, please go back to the mansion to rest first. I will personally interrogate him and promise to make him confess."
King Xuan's eyes moved: "Okay."
Anyway, with the commander in chief, something big should happen, so he returned to the mansion with his confidants.
There are still many jailers left in the dungeon, but compared to Rong Lin, they are nothing.
Rong Lin moved a stool and sat at the door: "Do you want me to come? Or do you come in person?"
"Of course I will come in person, I like the feeling of revenge in person." Ning Yue said slowly, picked up the tongs, held a piece of iron, and walked towards Patriarch Geng, who was tortured to death, "Patriarch Geng, do you still know me?"
Patriarch Geng raised his head in embarrassment. Because he was too weak, his eyes were full of confusion: "Ma... Ma Ning... Yue..."
Ning Yue smiled: "Very well, my mind is still clear, then I'll make it clear."
die?
Hearing this word, the jailers in the dungeon widened their eyes.
Patriarch Geng smiled disdainfully: "You dare not kill me, Ma Ningyue, Princess Deqing is still in my son's hands. If I die, she will die too."
