Chapter 182 The nightmare is full of her
"This king knows that you were the one who sent Xiao Jin's exile team out."
Li Da said truthfully: "It was given by me."
"I just want to know what Su Ying was like along the way."
Li Da thought Xiao Jue would ask about Xiao Jin, but he didn't expect that he was asking about Su Ying.
Su Ying, hiss, his memory of her was so profound... It was simply... Her figure was always present in his nightmares.
Xiao Jue and Su Ying both worked in the capital and knew something about it, so no one knew why he was asking about this woman whom he looked down upon.
"It's just... pretty impressive."
"How great?"
Li Da rubbed his hands and said, "Tearing a white tiger apart with bare hands, blowing off a head with a kick, and beating up a policeman with a punch? Hiss... and fighting against the mob alone? Using a python as a pendant?" Li Da felt that there were too many things, and he was still extremely shocked every time he recalled them.
Every time Li Da said something, Xiao Jue's face became uglier, and in the end it was even so ugly that it became numb. If it weren't for what happened before, he would have thought that Li Da was playing a trick on him. But he saw with his own eyes that Su Ying held him hostage and confronted hundreds of people, and she was not afraid at all and was able to escape unscathed. This was definitely not the Su Ying he knew.
Absolutely not!
"When did she become like this?"
Li Da frowned and thought for a long time, but he really had no impression. There were too many people in the exile team at that time, and he seldom paid attention to each of them. Everyone was disheveled and looked lifeless, so he didn't take it to heart.
"Probably... a month or so after the exile? It was about that time." He couldn't remember the details, his mind was filled with the image of Su Ying kicking him in the head...
"Was Xiao Jin still alive when he came out of seclusion?"
"Alive." This matter was recorded at every turn, he couldn't lie, but he didn't want to say that he was not only alive, but also living a good life.
"Are the legs healed too?" Xiao Jue's expression became increasingly gloomy until he saw Li Da shaking his head, then his expression lightened up a little.
"No, I haven't stood up yet."
Xiao Jue showed a sinister smile on his face, "Send him out."
Li Da's hair stood on end when he heard this. He was afraid that when Xiao Jue said sending him out, he meant sending him to heaven.
Fortunately, Xiao Jue thought that there was no benefit in taking his life, so he let him go quickly.
"Your Highness, Su Ying is a woman who really hides her true identity," said Liang Kuan, a close confidant.
Before, when Su Ying was chasing after Xiao Jue, she was like a fool, how could she be so powerful?
"Your Majesty, can you be sure that person is Su Ying?"
Xiao Jue had doubts before, but he had secretly observed Su Ying's face and was sure that she was right, so he concluded that Su Ying had deliberately hidden her strength in front of him.
What on earth does this bitch want to do!
"But Your Highness, don't worry. Even if Xiao Jin is not dead, his power in Jincheng will be slowly disintegrated by us. Everything will be irreversible."
But Xiao Jin was not eliminated, and Xiao Jue was filled with hatred. "I asked you to find the Leng Jun before, but there is still no news from him. What's going on?"
Liang Kuan's face was a little stiff, he was also very annoyed about this matter. They also tried to contact the leader of the Lian Army, but the people there kept saying that the two sides had lost contact and they were also looking for people, but after leaving the checkpoint, their people disappeared along with Xiao Jin and the others, as if they had evaporated from the face of the earth and could not be found no matter how hard they tried.
"Your Highness, do you think this matter is related to Xiao Jin and the others?" But Liang Kuan felt that, even if dozens of people were killed, there should be corpses, right?
"You ask me, why do I keep you guys around when I already know this? I should have killed him right here in the country. It's all because of you idiots who are afraid of everything. Otherwise, he would have rotted in the ground by now!"
Zhang Kuan was scolded so hard that he dared not say a word. If he had not accidentally received news from the Ministry of Justice that the Emperor had secretly talked to the Minister of Justice and said that they must see Xiao Jin leave the country alive, otherwise they would not have only killed the people around him.
"Your Highness, please calm down. You came to the Southern Kingdom to negotiate peace, but now you have encountered an assassin. Isn't it a good opportunity to use the excuse of hunting down the assassin as an excuse to search for the whereabouts of Su Ying and Xiao Jin?"
Xiao Jue narrowed his eyes, "You are right, someone is trying to assassinate me. I will find the assassin no matter what. You must immediately mobilize troops from the nearest city. The more the better."
The troops at the pass cannot be mobilized on a large scale easily without the tiger talisman. If they want to send more people to search for people, they can only mobilize officers and soldiers from nearby cities.
"Yes, I will go and do it right away."
…
Three days after Jiang Yang left a letter for Lin Kun, Lin Kun finally met Xiao Jin.
Lin Kun looked at Xiao Jin standing in front of him, his face filled with excitement that was hard to conceal.
"Have the prince's legs recovered? Can he walk freely now?"
Seeing that he was almost crazy with excitement, Jiang Yang reached out and punched him twice, "What are you thinking, you bastard? Of course, the prince is fine. These two legs must be flexible before."
Lin Kun really didn't dare to think of this, "This is really great. If the prince and General Sima knew about this, they would definitely drink three jars of wine to celebrate."
When Xiao Jin thought of his legs, a slight smile appeared on his face.
After Lin Kun was happy, he did not forget to talk about business, "Your Majesty, Xiao Jue is not dead."
The smile on Xiao Jin's face gradually faded. Su Ying said that he stabbed Xiao Jue with a knife. Based on Su Ying's killing method, it should be difficult for Xiao Jin to escape.
"Can you find out the details?"
Lin Kun shook his head. "It's difficult. His compound is strictly guarded, and the people he keeps around are his trusted followers. It's difficult for our people to get in. But from the scattered information we have gathered, we know that the man was covered in blood when he was brought back that day, and he looked seriously injured."
Xiao Jin suddenly thought of something. Many years ago, Xiao Jue got a piece of soft armor, which could withstand sharp weapons. Xiao Jue was a cautious person who feared death, so he would even wear it when sleeping at night. Su Ying's knife must have stabbed her, but it was most likely blocked by Xiao Jue's soft armor.
"What is he doing here this time?"
"The spy in the capital reported that the emperor sent him to try to find out the attitude of the Southern Kingdom and negotiate peace." Now that Xiao Jin, who had a great chance of winning against the Southern Kingdom, has been exiled, no one knows whether he is dead or alive, the King of Chu naturally will not want to go to war with the Southern Kingdom anymore.
Jiang Yang said after hearing this: "No wonder the spies from the Southern Kingdom came to see the prince before. They probably don't want to negotiate peace."
Lin Kun also said: "They were beaten so badly by the prince before. Given the vengeful nature of the southerners, they will never let it go. But they are also worried that the emperor's exile of the prince is just a cover, and he will give them a fatal blow when they send troops again."
Xiao Jin slowly shook his head and said, "No, neither monarch wants to fight, but some people want to fight again."
