Ye Li squatted down and looked at the person on the ground. He looked like a typical person from Nan Jiang. Even though he was wearing black night clothes, he didn't hide his features. "They shouldn't be Princess Anxi's men. Chu Liuyun shouldn't have any enemies in Nan Jiang. Who dares to chase after the princess and provoke her? "An Er frowned and said," Could it be that someone else knows about our identities? "
Ye Li shook her head. "That's not right. If someone really knows about our identities, I'm afraid it won't be as simple as these few low-level assassins. What happened tonight is more like a demonstration or … a provocation to Princess Anxi. "
"A demonstration … a provocation to Princess Anxi? Is it because of Young Master Qingchen? "An Er guessed. Ye Li nodded and said thoughtfully, "I think so too. In Nan Jiang, the only person related to Chu Liuyun's identity is Big Brother. But what's the use of such a provocation if it doesn't hurt? In comparison, it's more useful to capture me to threaten Big Brother. If Big Brother is in the other party's hands. "
"With these assassins' abilities, they can't take anyone away from the princess residence even if I'm not here." They haven't even touched the guest house, but they have already alerted the princess residence's guards. Such assassins can't even kill people, let alone kidnap someone alive. "Miss, can you guess who did it?"
Ye Li smiled lightly and said, "I didn't know at first, but I'm quite confident now. Tomorrow, I'll try out your interrogation skills and verify my theory. "
An Er knew many interrogation experts, such as the romantic and elegant Feng San Gongzi Feng Zhi Yao, the leader of the hidden guards who was responsible for training them, and the Ding Guo Wang Fu's steward Uncle Mo, who was solemn and silent but actually had a good heart. However, An Er never knew that the originally delicate Princess Consort Ding's master was also an expert in this area. Many times, the four of them couldn't help but secretly guess how badly the Ye family treated the Princess Consort back then to distort a rich young lady from a prestigious family like this.
It would take a lot of effort to bring that unlucky assassin out of the princess residence. At this moment, the princess residence was under martial law, and the price of bringing him out might not be proportional to the rewards they would receive. So An Er didn't plan on waiting until tomorrow. He prepared to pry open that unlucky guard's mouth on the spot. The guest courtyard wasn't small, and Ye Li's room was located in the innermost part of the courtyard, so as long as they didn't shout, even the people outside the courtyard wouldn't notice anything. Of course, the Shadow Guard who had been hiding in the Princess Residence would not allow anyone who was not supposed to get close to the guest courtyard. After the unlucky assassin was forced to drink a cup of herbal tea mixed with Tendon Softening Powder, he couldn't scream even if he wanted to.
Thus, a few strange scenes appeared in the elegantly decorated room. On one side of the couch lay a maid from Nanjiang who had fallen into a deep sleep. Sitting at the table was a charming young girl who was writing and drawing under the lamp. A few steps away, however, there was an inhumane interrogation going on under torture. An Er's face darkened as he broke the assassin's left leg bone. That assassin's face was deathly pale and he was drenched in sweat, but he still clenched his teeth and refused to speak. Because of the restrictions of this place, he couldn't use too troublesome and bloody methods. This made An Er's face become more and more ugly. Even after Ye Li finished dealing with her own matters and raised her head, An Er still couldn't get the assassin to spit out a single useful sentence. Instead, that assassin almost bit his tongue and committed suicide.
"Is it no good? Do you need help? "Ye Li stood up and asked. An Er's mouth twitched. He shook his head and said, "There's no need to trouble young miss with this kind of thing."
"No problem. Even if you break another leg, he still won't confess."
"Then I'll break all the bones in his body." An Er coldly stared at the assassin.
Ye Li shook her head and said with a smile, "When you break half of his bones, he'll be dead."
"What idea does young miss have?"
Ye Li leisurely walked over. She squatted down and smiled at the assassin on the ground. She softly said, "Do you understand Central Plains language? Don't worry, I won't be as rough as him. "The assassin vigilantly stared at the charming young girl with a kind smile. As an assassin, his intuition told him that this pretty and cute young girl in front of him was the truly dangerous person.
"Don't be afraid, I won't break your bones like he did. I plan to … remove all the bones in your body," Ye Li said with a smile as she looked at the assassin who was staring at her with vigilance, "Don't be afraid, I won't break your bones like he did. Let's start from ….. your fingers. " Her slender white hand held the assassin's left hand. With a kacha sound, a knuckle on the left index finger strangely twisted. Ye Li continued to move downwards. Another crisp sound was heard, and her entire index finger was twisted. The assassin's jaw was dislocated and he couldn't even cry out. He could only make vague ah ah sounds. Ye Li looked at him, "Nod your head whenever you want to, but ….. don't wait until I remove all the bones in your body before you nod. By then, it'll be too late."
Kacha …..
Ye Li's expression was calm, but her hands were moving in an orderly manner. And it was this kind of calmness that was more frightening than An Er's threatening words. When Ye Li's hand moved to the assassin's right hand, the assassin who was breathing weakly finally nodded his head with difficulty. Ye Li raised an eyebrow and looked at An Er from the corner of her eyes, "I thought it was some tough bone, but it's just like this?" An Er silently wiped the sweat from his forehead. He also felt that this assassin was a bit too useless. But at the same time, he felt that his master wasn't scary because of her methods of torturing people, but rather that terrifying calmness. If it was him, he would also be scared.
"Very good, but you can't joke with me. Otherwise ….. the consequences will only make you regret living in this world. "Ye Li sincerely looked at him and advised.
Ye Li nodded in satisfaction. "Very good. Then tell me who your master is?" Waving her hand to indicate for An Er to close his jaw, Ye Li asked. A trace of fear flashed through the assassin's eyes. He looked at Ye Li and opened his mouth, but didn't say anything. Ye Li wrinkled her brows and thought for a bit before saying, "If you're worried about your life's safety, I can guarantee your safety. Moreover, after I finish the matters in Nan Jiang, I can give you a sum of money to let you change your surname and start a new life. " The assassin's eyes flashed and there was a bit of hesitation on his face. Ye Li saw this and the smile on her face became even more sincere, "Your information is very important to me, so ….. as long as you give me true information, I promise to fulfill the promise. However, I think you should also understand that you're not the only one who knows the information. If you don't say it, others might say it. At that time ….. I'm very sorry, I can only ….. "Seeing the assassin's nervous expression, Ye Li said with a smile," No, I won't kill you. When I came to Nan Jiang, I passed by a valley that was filled with blood red flowers. There was also a small snake under each of the flowers. At the time, I was thinking, with so many snakes, what would they eat to grow? What do you think ….. "
"Snake ….. Snake Valley ….. No ….." It wasn't only the people of the Central Plains who were afraid of a place like Snake Valley. The people of Nan Jiang weren't afraid of snakes, but other than the Snake Tamers, there was no one who wasn't afraid of thousands of uncontrolled poisonous snakes.
