It's easy to choose between the two.
"Because of you!"
While speaking, Ji Yunshu's scarlet eyes were bloodshot as she coldly stared at Su Ziluo.
He continued, "General Yuchi's death was part of your plan. You had him invite Ji Li to the relay station to refill his wine, then you had him poison his wine and willingly die. You framed Ji Li for this. But you didn't expect that Kong Yu would come that night. You also didn't expect her to use her scimitar to wound Yuchi Lin. Your plan was completely ruined at that moment. Fortunately, you beat him at his own game and carried out your plan."
"And then?" Su Ziluo asked casually.
He did not refute her words!
He was very calm!
Ji Yunshu took a deep breath and looked at him as she spoke.
"First, you made Kong Yu leave the relay station. You also made her keep her mouth shut about what happened that night because you promised her that she wouldn't go to Qujiang with you. Moreover, you erased all traces of her presence in the room. I think you also burned that handkerchief, right? In the end, only half a footprint was left … "
But the plan had to be carried out, and it had to be carried out that night. Therefore, taking advantage of Ji Li's drunken stupor, you pulled out his sword and slashed at the same spot where Kong Yu had cut General Yuchi's neck.
When General Yuchi was cut by Kong Yu, his tendons and arteries were tightened due to the pain. That was why when you chopped off his head, all ten of his fingers were in a struggling state.
After that, you put the blood-stained sword in Ji Li's hand, making everyone believe that he had killed someone while he was drunk.
No procrastination, clear words!
While the room was filled with the smell of decay, it also seemed to be mixed with a sense of sadness.
Su Ziluo met her gaze.
The corners of his mouth curled up. It was as if he had torn off his disguise and was extremely relaxed.
He only asked, "Do you mean that I killed someone? Where's the evidence? "
"All of this is just my guess, but if you want evidence, I can give it to you. I think the sword that killed people should still be in the Ministry of Justice. As long as I check it, I can know whether your fingerprints are on the sword or not. You are such a smart person, you should know that everyone's fingerprints are different."
The smile on Su Ziluo's face grew wider as he listened to her. "Could it be that Miss Ji didn't notice that her words were full of loopholes? If I really killed him, I wouldn't have let you in to examine the corpse yesterday. I could have just burned the corpse.
Kong Yu's footprint, why did I only take the handkerchief? How could I not notice the other half of the footprint? Moreover, the murder weapon is the key to solving the case. When I hold the sword to kill someone, don't tell me I won't wipe off the fingerprints on the handle? "
"You won't do that."
"Why?"
"That's because you simply want me to find evidence to prove that you were the one who killed him."
Ji Yunshu's words were serious and certain.
Su Ziluo raised his eyebrows. "Oh? In this world, is there such a stupid murderer like me? "
His calmness seemed to be shrouded in a black mist, giving off an oppressive feeling.
Ji Yunshu clenched her fists and asked in a serious tone, "Don't quibble and don't hide anymore. Tell me, what do you want me to help you with?"
'Ah!'
Her sudden question caused Su Ziluo's eyes to flicker.
He glanced at the corpse on the bed, then at Ji Yunshu. With a face full of honesty, he slowly said, "Miss Ji is indeed an intelligent person. Even the slightest bit of evidence cannot escape your eyes."
"What do you want?"
He asked again.
"What I want is just a sentence from you!"
"What is it?"
"The murderer is Ji Li!"
Ji Yunshu sneered. "You killed him."
As if to remind him.
Su Ziluo only said, "Yes, I killed him. Just like what you said, I wanted you to know from the beginning, but I need you to say it."
"What makes you think that I will help you?"
Even if she was muddle-headed, she would not joke about a murder case.
Su Ziluo was the murderer, so she had no reason to let him go.
But …
Su Ziluo took out the tassel again and dangled it on his fingertips.
As soon as she saw the tassel, Ji Yunshu could no longer control her emotions.
She wanted to reach for it, but Su Ziluo was one step slower.
"If you want to know Ji Pei's whereabouts, you must say this for me." Su Ziluo's tone was conditional.
He was making a deal with her!
Ji Yunshu's eyes reddened as she shook her head. "No, I can't do it."
"You can!" He looked at her. "Because in your heart, there is nothing more important than Ji Pei."
"No …"
"As long as you say it, I will tell you where Ji Pei is. Is he alive or dead? I will tell you everything you want to know. "
"…"
Ji Yunshu's mind went blank. Her legs were powerless as she retreated a few steps back. The soreness in her chest almost took half of her life.
Su Ziluo tucked the tassel into his sleeve and wheeled his wheelchair to the window. He reached out and pushed open the tightly shut window.
The refracted light from the outside fell on his plain robe, giving him a sense of comfort.
He gazed into the distance and said, "A single word from you can prevent countless commoners from becoming homeless and destitute, and even save the lives of countless soldiers!"
Ji Yunshu only looked at him.
"Our thirty thousand soldiers are equal to your Great Lin's one hundred thousand mediocre soldiers. If you want to speak the truth, the two countries will inevitably go to war. At that time, rivers of blood will flow and countless will die. In the end, the victor and the loser are still unknown."
The one who spoke tilted his head to look at Ji Yunshu. The light shone on the side of his face; it was a beautiful sight.
He continued, "What I want is the two cities that the Great Lin once seized from my Qujiang. From now on, Qujiang will withdraw its troops and there will be no more wars between our two countries. This should be what you want, and what the people of the world want as well. The choice between the two is very easy."
'Choice between the two?
Very easy? '
But to Ji Yunshu, it was too difficult!
Her swaying body was on the verge of collapsing. She could only support herself by holding on to the corner of the table to keep herself upright. She did not lose her imposing manner in front of Su Ziluo.
After a long time, her thin red lips parted slightly. "If I help you, it means that I will put Ji Li to death. From then on, my conscience will condemn me, and I will never be able to rest in peace."
"Is that so?" He sneered. "As far as I know, he wants to kill you. How can you sympathize with a big brother who could kill you at any time?"
Yes, he knew that Ji Li was her big brother!
It seemed that Su Ziluo already knew her background like the back of his hand.
"A life is at stake!"
