Chapter 368 Princess, Don’t Look

"Yes!" The Beili soldiers on the left and right immediately responded and went to pick up the person.

A moment later, the only four remaining survivors were brought over by the Beili people. They were captured in the melee and were all covered in blood. After being captured, the secret guards and the Beili people tied them up to prevent them from committing suicide and stuffed their mouths with cloth.

Because the Beili envoy ordered a head-on fight with those who were ambushed in the valley, there were heavy casualties. When the Beili soldiers captured these people alive, they surrounded them and beat them up with punches and kicks, knocking them unconscious. If Jiang He and the others had not stopped them, I'm afraid not a single one would have been left alive.

The four survivors now all had bruised eyes and noses and were unconscious.

Mu Xu ordered the soldiers, "Bring water and pour water on them to wake them up."

Several Beili soldiers immediately did as they were told, brought buckets of water, and poured them all over the men's heads and faces.

Several survivors were forced to wake up. The accompanying General Beili immediately drew his sword and put it to the neck of one of them, shouting, "Tell me! Who sent you here?"

Several Beili soldiers beside him drew their swords and pointed them at the remaining three survivors, shouting in unison: "Speak!"

The few survivors did not speak immediately, and they looked like they were determined not to say anything.

General Beili stabbed the survivor in the shoulder with his knife, then immediately pulled the knife out, bringing out a large piece of flesh and blood.

Huo Yanran frowned and turned her head away, only to see that her seventh brother had raised his hand to block his sister-in-law's eyes.

Chunzhi took Huo Zheng's hand away, looked at him and shook her head gently.

She had been to the battlefield and had seen bloody scenes far more horrifying than the ones she saw now.

The screams of the survivor shook the forest, but even so, he still held on, looking loyal and willing to die rather than betray his master.

"You're still not telling me, right? It's easy to want to die, but this general will make you want to live in vain and die in vain!"

General Beili said this and stabbed the man again, this time in the abdomen. When the knife was pulled out, intestines and blood flowed out.

Huo Yanran almost vomited when she saw this scene. Seeing this, Liu Yan immediately turned around and stood in front of the princess.

Then a human wall appeared in front of Huo Yanran, blocking all the dirty and bloody scenes.

As soon as she looked up, she saw Liu Yan's face.

The sun rises in the distance, the morning light spreads across the earth, and everything around becomes brighter.

Liu Yan lowered his voice and said, "Princess, don't look."

Huo Yanran looked at him without blinking.

She thought, with Liu Yan here, why would she look at anything else?

At this time, everyone's attention was on the survivors. Chunzhi subconsciously raised her sleeve to block Yanran's sight, but found that Liu Tanhua had already done this before her.

Chunzhi silently lowered her sleeves.

It turns out that this silly girl Yanran is not in unrequited love.

very nice.

“Ahhhhhh!”

The survivor was stabbed several times by General Beili and screamed in pain.

But he did not say who was the mastermind behind this. General Beili kept stabbing the knife in his hand, then pulled it out and stabbed it in another place.

Each time he stabbed someone in a non-fatal place, but the pain was so severe that one wished he'd died on the spot.

General Beili is an expert here. He kills people like crazy, and each stab is fast and fierce.

It really makes people want to live but cannot, and want to die but cannot.

Everyone present was silent except for the one who was stabbed, who screamed in agony. His painful expression frightened the other three survivors so much that their faces turned pale.

General Beili shouted again:

"Let me ask you again, who sent you to ambush again? What's your purpose?"

The survivor who had been stabbed several times could no longer endure such torture and finally spoke, "It's...it's Prince Chang'an."

The young envoy who had previously been saying that this was all a trick by the King of Chang'an immediately jumped out and said loudly: "I said this was a trick by the King of Chang'an. He first sent people to ambush us in the valley and then suddenly appeared to pretend to rescue us. His purpose was..."

Huo Zheng ignored him and walked straight to the man who had been stabbed several times before he was forced to confess the mastermind behind the attack. "You were sent by the King of Chang'an, so who am I?"

The survivor was in excruciating pain. Suddenly, he was asked this question and tentatively asked back, "Were you also sent by the prince?"

Huo Zheng smiled and turned to look at Mu Xu and the others. "He said he was sent by the King of Chang'an, but he didn't even recognize me. Do you really think this man's confession is credible?"

Mu Xu and the others were not stupid, and they immediately realized that this survivor was lying.

General Beili, who was in charge of forcing a confession, was furious and stabbed the man who was lying even when facing death. He then put the knife to the neck of the second man and said, "You tell me!"

The second survivor hesitated for a moment, and General Beili slashed his neck with a knife. Then he came to the third survivor and said, "You say."

The third one refused to speak and did not want to suffer torture before his death, so he simply cut his throat with the blade.

In the blink of an eye, only one person was left alive.

Mu Xu was afraid that this reckless general would kill all the survivors, so he quickly stepped forward to stop him, "There is only one survivor left, keep him alive for now."

General Beili did not put the knife to the neck of the fourth survivor.

They always thought that they would be able to get the truth out of people under severe punishment.

But with just one sentence from King Chang'an, the answer they had finally gotten turned into a joke.

The man sent by King Chang'an to snatch the princess did not know King Chang'an.

And he had no idea that Huo Zheng had come to Beili in person.

Even if these Beili people exchanged their brains for martial arts, they would know that there was something wrong with the confession of this survivor.

This survivor had previously refused to reveal the mastermind behind the incident and only spoke out the "truth" after being stabbed several times. This seemed to be a deliberately designed plot to make them believe that what he said was true.

These people have extremely sinister intentions.

Huo Zheng gave Jiang He a look.

Jiang He nodded, stepped forward immediately, and said to the fourth survivor, "If you want to die, do it quickly. Don't waste your time."

The only survivor hesitated, and Jiang He reached out and stripped off his clothes without waiting for him to react.

The people lying in ambush in the valley were all wearing night clothes. They looked like people from Daxing and spoke the Daxing dialect, but they had pythons tattooed on their chests. The ferocious green snake body was coiled around their chests, which was weird and terrifying.

Jiang He was afraid that the Beili people had no idea what the snake totem on this survivor represented, so he immediately said, "The snake totem on this person is a unique mark of the assassins under the command of Prince Xiling. Those who ambushed you in the valley are not from Daxing, but from Xiling!"

Before he finished speaking, the other secret guards came forward and stripped the clothes off the other three dead Xiling warriors.

Without exception, these people have green snake totems on their chests.

Daxing, Xiling and Beili countries have all planted spies in each other's territory, so these so-called secrets are actually not unknown.

The evidence was right before their eyes, and all the Beili people present fell silent.

"Didn't that guy just now want to die as an apology?" Jiang He glanced at the prince, and seeing that he had no intention of stopping him, he immediately drew the long sword from his waist and threw it in front of the young envoy who had been shouting the longest and loudest that the Prince of Chang'an of Daxing had ulterior motives. "Please go in."
