Ye Zhen told Lu Xiangzhi everything about the assassin she encountered in Hu Guo Temple and later found out that it was Prime Minister Xu who did it. "The bald man caught today was the one who wanted to assassinate me at that time. I let him escape at that time. I didn't expect him to dare to appear today!"
"The Xu family was confiscated because of this incident!" Lu Xiangzhi snorted. "Isn't Prime Minister Xu dead? Why is Qian Luocha still chasing you? "
He had heard of Qian Luocha's rules before. Unless the buyer died, they would not stop the pursuit. Since the buyer, Prime Minister Xu, was dead, Qian Luocha should not continue to pursue Yao Yao.
"I don't know, but someone should tell us the truth." Ye Zhen smiled faintly.
Lu Xiangzhi said, "If the emperor knows what happened today, he will not let him go."
Ye Zhen nodded. "You are right, big brother. I want to see this man."
"Now?" Lu Xiangzhi raised his eyebrows. "If you ask him now, he may not be able to answer you."
"What do you mean?" Ye Zhen asked.
Lu Xiangzhi took her to see the bald man, who was not locked up in the prison of the yamen, but was taken to the woodshed of the mansion and locked up with many guards outside.
When Ye Zhen saw him, she knew what Lu Xiangzhi's words meant.
The bald man had been beaten to the point that he was completely unrecognizable.
"Lu Yaoyao, are you here to see if I'm dead? Oh, this young master will not die so easily. " The bald man's face was swollen, and his pair of eyes, which were originally delicate, had swollen to a line.
"I think you are half dead." Ye Zhen said with a smile. "You don't look very good."
The bald man cried, "If I die, you will not live long either."
"So, you are not a minion of Qian Luocha?" Ye Zhen looked him up and down.
"His name is Zhuo Yunrui. He is not a minion of Qian Luocha, but the young master of Qingyun Manor. It seems that the relationship between Qingyun Manor and Qian Luocha is not shallow."
Zhuo Yunrui raised his head sharply. "How do you know?"
"Don't get me wrong. Your two subordinates have just confessed everything." Lu Xiangzhi said.
"Impossible!" Zhuo Yunrui firmly shook his head. He was the clearest about what kind of people his two subordinates were. Even if he killed them, it was impossible for them to reveal his identity. "How exactly did you know?"
Ye Zhen said, "Why do you care how we know? Who asked you to kill me?"
"Whoever wants you dead is naturally that person who wants to kill you." Zhuo Yunrui said. His words pulled at the wound on his face, causing him to grit his teeth in pain. "Lu Yaoyao, I'll definitely treat you the same way you treat me today."
Ye Zhen stepped on his injured calf. "You have tried to assassinate me twice, and I still have to respect you as a guest and entertain you politely? Do you think everyone else is a fool like you? "
Zhuo Yunrui looked at Ye Zhen with a grin. "Lu Yaoyao, why don't you let me go? I will cancel the kill order for you."
"Speaking of the bounty, there's something else that I find strange." Ye Zhen said with a smile, "If I'm not mistaken, the person who looked for Qian Luocha should be Prime Minister Xu. Prime Minister Xu is dead. Why hasn't the bounty been canceled?"
"Qian Luosha has two types of bounty orders. One is a lifetime bounty order, and the other is what you know. If the buyer dies, the bounty order will also disappear. But the lifetime bounty order is different. It will never be canceled until you are killed," Zhuo Yunrui said.
Ye Zhen raised her eyebrows slightly. A lifetime bounty order? Would the Xu family hate her to this extent? Why did she feel that this was not something the Xu family could do at that time? However, who else but the Xu family had looked for Qian Luocha?
Could it be someone else who had looked for Qian Luocha at that time? No, it can't be. Dad and Mo Rongzhan have found out that it was the Xu family, so it must not be bad. Unless … someone else besides the Xu family had looked for Qian Luocha.
"So, I have to kill you first. Otherwise, won't you continue to come to kill me?" Ye Zhen looked at him with a smile.
Zhuo Yunrui snorted, "If I die, someone else will come to kill you."
"That's right, but at least if I kill you, I can vent my anger." Ye Zhen took Lu Xiangzhi's dagger and pressed the tip of the sword against Zhuo Yunrui's neck. "Anyway, I will be hunted by Qian Luocha …"
"Lu Yaoyao!" Zhuo Yunrui finally felt afraid. Was this Lu Yaoyao a woman? How could she kill people so casually?
Ye Zhen looked at him with a smile. "I can't kill you. Tell me, who wants me dead?"
"I don't know." Zhuo Yunrui said with a cold face, "Only the lord knows the buyer of the bounty order. I am only responsible for killing people."
"You are the young master of Qingyun Villa." Ye Zhen looked at him faintly. With this identity, Zhuo Yunrui could not be a small fry in Qian Luocha.
Zhuo Yunrui glared at her. "What do you want to do?"
Ye Zhen smiled. "What do you think I want to do?"
Lu Xiangzhi said, "Not many people in the world should know that a righteous and chivalrous sect like Qingyun Villa has a relationship with Qian Luocha. If it gets out … How will Qingyun Villa stand in the world?"
Zhuo Yunrui's face changed, although his bruised and swollen face could no longer be seen. "It has nothing to do with my eldest brother. My eldest brother has nothing to do with Qian Luocha."
"Who believes you?" Ye Zhen asked.
"Lu Yaoyao, what the hell do you want?" Zhuo Yunrui gritted his teeth and asked.
Ye Zhen smiled. "Who on earth asked you to kill me?"
"I don't know." Zhuo Yunrui said immediately.
"Oh, then you continue to stay." Ye Zhen smiled and turned to leave.
Seeing that she was really leaving, Zhuo Yunrui immediately called out, "Stop, you come back."
"Young master Zhuo, what else can I do for you?" Ye Zhen asked.
"What the hell do you want?" Zhuo Yunrui asked.
Ye Zhen smiled and said, "Who on earth wants to kill me?"
"I really don't know who the buyer is. The person who issued the kill order is Mister Teng." Zhuo Yunrui said, "Go ask him."
"Thank you for telling me this. Wait for the people from Qian Luosha to come and save you." Ye Rou's eyes flashed with a smile. She exchanged a look with Lu Xiangzhi and turned to leave the woodshed.
Zhuo Yunrui shouted and cursed behind them.
"Big Brother, who is Mister Teng?" Ye Zhen turned around and asked Lu Xiangzhi.
"I don't know either. The news about Zhuo Yunrui was from Xue Lin. Why don't we ask Xue Lin?" Lu Xiangzhi said.
Xue Lin, who had been following Ye Zhen, said, "Mister Teng is the deputy of the Qian Luocha Pavilion Master. I heard that he takes care of a lot of things for Qian Luocha.
Ye Zhen nodded gently, "I know. By the way, don't tell the emperor about what happened today."
"If you don't tell me, I won't know?" Mo Rongzhan's deep and cold voice came from the front.
