The assassin was somewhat frightened by Ye Qinghan's psychological attack and couldn't take it anymore. Among the dozens of assassins, at least five of them knew his background, but none of them were willing to speak. How could he give up on them for the sake of face?
"It's the ninth prince's uncle, Zhen Zilong." The assassin gritted his teeth and said.
"Very good." Ye Qinghan smiled and waved his hand. He said calmly, "Give him a brush and ink. Let him sign."
"Someone, inform Marshal Yun that he has to testify for me and help me catch the criminals."
Ye Qinghan's orders were sent out one by one. The Imperial Army's prison immediately moved. The Imperial Army rushed out in waves.
Soon, Marshal Yun, the fourth prince, and the sixth prince all arrived. They were obviously here to show their goodwill.
"Sir, you were attacked in the Sacred City. These people are really daring. Did you find out who sent them?" The fourth prince asked, pretending to be angry. In fact, he knew better than anyone that the assassins from hell wouldn't betray the person who sent them.
"We found out. Now, Marshal Yun and the two princes, please be our witnesses and help us catch the real person who sent them." Ye Qinghan said calmly.
Marshal Yun and the two princes' pupils shrank. They couldn't imagine what kind of punishment Ye Qinghan used to force the assassin to reveal the person who sent them in such a short time.
Marshal Yun and the two princes quickly entered the prison. They were shocked to see that the assassin wasn't injured at all. However, the other assassins were very weak.
"Sir, please tell us who sent them." Ye Qinghan waved his hand and handed the confession to Marshal Yun.
"The person who sent them is the ninth prince's uncle, Zhen Zilong." The assassin gritted his teeth and said.
The two princes and Marshal Yun were completely shocked. It was obvious that Ye Qinghan didn't torture the assassin!
"Marshal Yun, this matter involves the royal family. I can only ask you to uphold justice." Ye Qinghan bowed slightly and said.
"Uncle, you don't have to do this. I will do it myself. That damn Zhen Zilong is so daring. He actually sent assassins to attack in the Sacred City! It's obvious that he doesn't care about the royal family at all, "the Fourth Prince said angrily.
How could the Sixth Prince allow the Fourth Prince to show goodwill? He hurriedly said, "Sir was attacked, and this Little Prince was furious. This Little Prince wants me to take revenge for sir. I'll go and capture the Zhen family's people and interrogate them to find out the truth!"
"Then … then I'll have to trouble Your Highnesses," Ye Qinghan said in a deep voice.
In order to express their goodwill, the two princes directly led the prefecture soldiers and mobilized the city guards to charge into the Zhen family's territory. They attacked in the middle of the night, and their actions were swift and decisive. It was difficult for the Zhen family to react.
Inside the palace, Imperial Concubine Xue found out that Ye Qinghan had been attacked and that the Ninth Prince was behind it. She was so scared that she went limp on the spot. She could only hate Ye Qinghan for not fighting back.
"Get out of the palace quickly, I want to see Mister Zuo!"
Her son had made a huge mistake, so she had to clean it up. Otherwise, that imperial edict would be invalidated. How could she be willing to lose the throne that was in her hands?
Imperial Concubine Xue anxiously rushed to the Zuo Marshal's residence, but found that Ye Qinghan was not there. She could only wait in torment.
In the prison, Ye Qinghan looked at the assassin and said indifferently, "I want to replace Hell and Heaven. This is not nonsense, but a plan. If you help me, you will be the Lord of Hell in the future. If you don't help me, I will send you to Hell. You have no choice."
"You madman! How can a civil official like you challenge the dignity of the Lord of Hell? Just kill me, I will never make an enemy of the Lord of Hell! "The assassin was frightened and angry as he roared.
"Think about it again. If I want to find out the location of your family, I can still do it." After Ye Qinghan finished speaking, he waved his hand and left. When he reached the door, he said to the leader of the imperial guards, "None of these people can die. Guard the exit strictly. Send a hundred people to block these people for me. Don't let anyone come to rescue them. Also, don't let them commit suicide.
Outside the prison, Marshal Yun still had not left. He seemed to be waiting for Ye Qinghan.
Ye Qinghan appeared behind Marshal Yun and asked indifferently, "Why hasn't Marshal Yun gone back to rest?"
"Sir, you're really something. I can't help but admire you. You've taken every step carefully. You're really going to kill the Ninth Prince's relatives, and you're even able to force the assassins to reveal who they are without torturing them. Now, I'm curious as to what your true purpose is." Marshal Yun looked directly at Ye Qinghan, wanting to see his true face.
Ye Qinghan shrugged and said with a smile, "Marshal Yun really thinks highly of me. No matter how much we overturn the heavens, there is still the Realm Lord above us. His Majesty is smart and can see all of this. That is why he allowed us to assist him. Otherwise, it would not be our turn to assist him."
Marshal Yun could not help but nod. This was true. No matter how capable or crazy they were, they could not go against the Realm Lord's will.
"Oh, that's right. Marshal Yun, I was attacked by more than one wave of people today. A few women in the Fragrance Pavilion tried to make a move against me. Seeing that they failed, they tried to assassinate the prince and frame me. These people are extremely daring. After failing their mission, they directly took poison and committed suicide. I want to ask, do you know where these people came from?" Ye Qinghan asked curiously.
"What? They even dared to assassinate the prince and frame you? " Marshal Yun was startled and murmured, "The people in the Fragrance Pavilion were all carefully selected. They all belong to the Snow Kingdom Financial Group of the Sixth Prince's grandfather. They only want money. They do not dare to get involved in the underworld. There is no way they would dare to assassinate the prince!"
"These people are really good at hiding. If I want to find them, I will have to spend a lot of effort." Ye Qinghan clenched his fists. His eyes flashed as he looked at the Fragrance Pavilion in the center of the city.
The one who started the trouble should end it. Since this power could break through the Fragrance Pavilion in the Holy City, they would definitely be able to break through the Fragrance Pavilions in the other cities. Moreover, they were all big cities. It was impossible for them to infiltrate small cities!
"Marshal Yun, please help me keep an eye out. This power is not like Hell or Heaven. They do not have a bottom line and dare to assassinate anyone. No matter where they are, leaving them alive is a disaster." Ye Qinghan said in a deep voice.
"En, you must be tired tonight. Go back and rest early. Tomorrow, I will personally investigate Zhen Zilong. According to your instructions, I will kill all his relatives." Marshal Yun nodded and said indifferently.
Ye Qinghan thanked him and returned to the Left Marshal's Mansion with a group of Imperial Guards. At this moment, the Left Marshal's Mansion was surrounded by the Imperial Guards. They were afraid of being attacked again.
Xue Fei was anxiously waiting in the courtyard. When she saw Ye Qinghan enter the courtyard, she immediately knelt down with a face full of fear.
"Mister, there must be a misunderstanding. Little Ninth would not dare to do such a ridiculous thing!" Xue Fei begged.
"I know. It was not the Ninth Prince. It was his uncle Zhen Zilong. The assassins have already admitted that they were the ones who sent the assassins." Ye Qinghan said indifferently.
Bang!
Xue Fei was frightened. She did not expect that one would be more troublesome than the other. This time, they even implicated their relatives.
