Li Daquan's expression gradually changed from the initial panic to calmness. In the end, he gritted his teeth and said, "Don't scare me, Du Qi. It's impossible for you to kill me. This county office belongs to County Magistrate Xie. He won't let you kill me with him around. "
Du Qi chuckled. "You finally said that you're related to Xie Zhizhou. In fact, your relationship with Xie Hun and Xie Zhizhou is not a secret. You think you can hide it, but how can you hide it? "
Li Daquan didn't speak for the time being.
Du Qi continued, "Besides, the casino you're in belongs to Xie Hun. Xie Hun is Xie Zhizhou's nephew. This is not a secret. I don't know why you want to keep this a secret. "
Li Daquan finally couldn't help but say, "Du Qi, even if you know my relationship with Xie Hun and County Magistrate Xie, what can you do? Besides, you know my relationship with County Magistrate Xie. It's even more impossible for you to kill me. "
Du Qi said, "Who said I'm going to kill you?"
Li Daquan's pupils shrank.
'What does Du Qi mean?'
Li Daquan was a little confused at this time. For a moment, he didn't understand Du Qi's intention. After all, Li Daquan's nature was that of a crude martial artist.
Du Qi said lightly, "Don't think that I'm the one who wants to kill you. Is there any enmity between us? In fact, there is no enmity between us. You're just an errand boy. In fact, the one who wants to kill you is Xie Hun and Xie Zhizhou behind the scenes. They're the ones who can kill you. "
"Impossible!"
Li Daquan shook his head.
He didn't think that Du Qi's words were true. Xie Hun and Xie Zhizhou were on his side. Why would they want to kill him?
Du Qi chuckled as he took out the Regal Regal Token that Li Yuan had personally bestowed upon him from his sleeve. He said, "Do you see this token? This afternoon, I went to the palace to see His Majesty and told him that I was wronged by Xie Zhizhou. Now, His Majesty has asked me to investigate this matter. "
"As long as I start investigating, Xie Zhizhou and Xie Zheng won't be able to handle it."
"This time, the clue is with you."
"You, Li Daquan, are the key because you are responsible for contacting Xie Zhizhou and Xie Hun. Only you know about their relationship and have dealings with them. "
Du Qi spoke frankly with assurance, "Xie Zhizhou and Xie Hun won't protect you. Because they are backed by the Eastern Palace, they can't withstand my counterattack. Therefore, their only choice is to give up on you. This is the simplest, most direct, and most convenient way. "
"If you die, everything will be over."
"All the clues were cut off."
"The matter of framing me became a case without any leads. Even if I wanted to investigate, I wouldn't be able to trace it back to Xie Zhizhou and Xie Hun. But if we leave you behind, there will be problems and threats. "
Du Qi said, "Li Daquan, you're a smart man. Do you understand this? "
Li Daquan looked nervous and his body trembled.
His brows were tightly furrowed.
Although Li Daquan was a crude martial artist, he often killed people to silence them, let alone Xie Hun and Xie Zhizhou. This kind of thing wasn't new. It was an old trick.
Li Daquan was more familiar with Xie Hun.
He knew Xie Hun's nature. He would definitely do something like this to get things done once and for all.
At this moment, Li Daquan's heart was wavering. He no longer had any expectations. Originally, Li Daquan was hoping that Xie Zhizhou and Xie Hun would come to save him. But the problem was, according to Du Qi, no one would save him. On the contrary, they would eliminate him by the roots.
Du Qi said, "It looks like you've thought it through. Li Daquan, I'm not the one who wants to kill you. On the contrary, I'm the one who wants to save you. "
Li Daquan said, "Are you that kind?"
Du Qi said, "Of course I'm not that kind to save you. I'm just keeping you alive to deal with Xie Hun and Xie Zhizhou. Only you can testify against Xie Hun and Xie Zhizhou. That's all. As long as you're willing to cooperate, I can guarantee that I'll spare your life. At the very least, you'll still be alive. You won't be killed for no reason. What do you think, Li Daquan? "
Li Daquan gritted his teeth. "How can I trust you?"
Du Qi said, "Do you have a choice now? If I'm not wrong, someone will target you tonight, perhaps in the first half of the night, or perhaps in the second half of the night.
"If Xie Zhizhou's methods are slightly gentler, he'll choose to have you kill yourself.
"If you kill yourself, everything will be over.
"If you kill yourself, there won't be any flaws."
Du Qi said in a low voice, "If Xie Zhizhou's methods are more ruthless, he'll arrange for someone to kill you and make it look like you suddenly die. In any case, you'll be in great danger tonight. "
Gulp!
Li Daquan gulped again.
He couldn't hold on any longer.
After all, Li Daquan didn't want to die. He wanted to continue living.
Li Daquan gritted his teeth and stared at Du Qi. He said, "If I cooperate with you, how will you save me?"
Du Qi chuckled.
'It's done!'
With Li Daquan's words, the matter was settled. After all, Li Daquan was Xie Hun and Xie Zhizhou's confidant. He knew a lot about them.
Du Qi said, "If you want me to save you, it's very simple. You'll be in trouble tonight. Stall for time until the night is over. Tomorrow, I'll deal with Xie Hun and Xie Zhizhou. At that time, you will be safe. "
Du Qi paused for a moment before he continued, "Of course, the prerequisite is that you have to prove that you're related to Xie Hun and Xie Zhizhou. Moreover, you must have sufficient evidence to prove that Xie Hun and Xie Zhizhou are related. "
Li Daquan weighed the pros and cons in his mind.
He was naturally capable of stalling for time, but could Du Qi really do it?
Du Qi continued, "You don't have to doubt my methods. Besides, I need you to stay alive. His Majesty will be involved in this matter. His Majesty can only interrogate you if you're alive.
"That's why I'll guarantee your safety.
"Moreover, the jailers in this cell are all former county magistrate Wang Min's subordinates. They're not Xie Zhizhou's direct subordinates. With them around, your safety won't be a problem. "
Du Qi instigated Li Daquan.
Li Daquan was moved by Ou Yangming's words. He knew it was just as Du Qi said. He had no way out. He could only choose to believe in Du Qi.
If he didn't believe in Du Qi, he would definitely die.
Li Daquan gritted his teeth and said, "It's not difficult to prove our relationship. I'm Xie Hun's subordinate. I'm in charge of the casino. Xie Zhizhou gets 60% of the casino's daily profits, Xie Hun gets 30%, and I get 10%. "
"The account book is in my hands."
"The account book can prove everything."
"In addition, the money I give to Xie Zhizhou and Xie Hun every day is personally given by me. The person who contacted me in the county government is called Xie Hong. He's Xie Zhizhou's butler. He knows about this matter. The person next to Xie Hun in charge of contacting me is called Lin Ming. He's Xie Hun's incompetent adviser. "
"Both of them know the situation."
Li Daquan continued, "In addition, when Xie Hun first came to Chang 'an, he either directly occupied or killed some people in order to establish himself. In the end, Xie Zhizhou was the one who settled the matter. It was Xie Zhizhou who suppressed the matter. That's why Xie Hun was able to establish himself in Chang 'an North City. I've written down all the things that happened. The time, place, incident, and related people involved, I've recorded them all. "
After hearing this, Du Qi's lips curled into a smile. He praised, "Li Daquan, I didn't expect that a burly man like you would know these things. You actually kept a card up your sleeve."
Li Daquan said, "I actually don't know. It's my woman who wrote it down. She said that one must be vigilant against others. So, I wrote down all the things in detail. If something happens, I can use these to threaten Xie Hun and Xie Zhizhou. It's a way out. "
Du Qi said, "This is indeed a way out. Where did you put the two books? "
Li Daquan said, "They're in my woman's hands."
After a pause, Li Daquan took out a jade Buddha from his clothes and said, "Take this jade Buddha and go to Daning Square to find my woman. She'll give it to you. This is my agreement with her. If something happens, I'll use this jade Buddha to make her hand over the books. "
