The whistleblower on the side couldn't help but tense up when he heard Zhao Xiu's name.
The Turks asked, "Why did the King of Ying send you to Beiting?"
Zhao Xiu snorted, "What else can you do?"
The Turks were terrified. Could it be that Prince Ying was planning a rebellion? But why hadn't he received any news?
"We in the Central Plains believe in mutual exchange. Now that I've revealed my identity, you should also answer my questions. Why did you appear in Fuqiang County? And why were you assassinated by the government officials?"
"I don't believe you."
Zhao Xiu was furious. This Turkic barbarian was just a stinking stone in the toilet.
"Don't believe me? Why do you think I kept you here now that I've discovered your identity as a Turkic soldier? It's because you are useful to our prince."
Zhao Xiu sneered, "Since you don't believe me, there's no need for me to keep you here any longer. Besides, Lou Yunchun is chasing us now, and you'd be a burden to me. It's better to throw you out and stop him. Maybe I can still go find Guo Yuanzhen smoothly."
He then looked at the whistleblower who was pretending to be dead. "Let's take him along. Since Lou Yunchun is here, it means that Bai Yu's Class A mission is to assassinate him. I believe Lou Yunchun is currently searching for assassins. If there is one more person to stop him, my chances of success will increase."
"I, I... believe it." Upon hearing this, the whistleblower suddenly came back to life, opened his eyes and looked at Zhao Xiu, "Zhao Xiu, I've heard of you."
Zhao Xiu's eyes darkened. "How did you hear that?"
"The King of Birds in the Capital City has ordered us to search for you and ensure your safe arrival in Beiting."
"Really?" Zhao Xiu thought that King Ying would order a hunt for him, but he didn't expect that he would let Bai Que protect him to go to Beiting. What was this man thinking?
"Absolutely true." In order to save his own life, the whistleblower did not dare to tell the whole order. The remaining half of the order was that if Zhao Xiu came out safely from Beiting, he would be killed.
Zhao Xiu asked again: "Who is your bird master?"
"I can't tell you."
"Will it work if I hand you over to Lou Yunchun for interrogation?"
The whistleblower was silent for a moment, then said tactfully, "There are two mahjong masters, one is Liu Ciling, and the other is Wei Yuankui."
Zhao Xiu thought to himself: It really is them.
When the Turkic man heard the whistleblower confirm Zhao Xiu's identity, he half believed it, but the people of the Central Plains have always been cunning, and since they belong to two countries, he still couldn't let his guard down.
Zhao Xiu turned her gaze towards him and raised her eyebrows, "Still don't believe it?"
Saving his life was the most important thing right now, so he nodded and said, "I believe it."
"Then tell me, why were you being hunted in Fuqiang?"
It seems that there is no way around this.
The Turkic man half-concealed, "The magistrate of Fuqiang County had originally agreed to connect us to Tubo, but he changed his mind after hearing that his friend in Beijing was imprisoned in the Dali Temple for aiding the aristocracy. He also heard that people from the Dali Temple had come to the northwest, and he was afraid that they would find out about him and expose his relationship with us, so he wanted to silence me."
Zhao Xiu thought expressionlessly, could it be that the good friend of the Fuqiang County Magistrate in Beijing was his unlucky teacher?
This means that the Fuqiang County Magistrate is probably somewhat involved with the Jiang family.
I heard that an old member of the Jiang family was banished from the capital because he pleaded for the Jiang family. Could this person be him?
This is really like a shepherd's purse seed falling into the eye of a needle - what a coincidence, isn't it?
Then Zhao Xiu felt something was wrong and pressed him, "You're Turkic. What information is he afraid of you leaking? Could Lou Yunchun still find out about you?"
The Turks remained silent.
Zhao Xiuyi narrowed his eyes and asked with a hint of inquiry: "Besides the Fuqiang County Magistrate, who else was bribed by you?"
The Turks couldn't help but curse in their hearts, the Central Plains people are really cunning, and the Central Plains person in front of them is the most cunning!
