As Jamukha reached the door, a sword suddenly thrust in, but Jamukha swiftly turned to avoid it.
The next second, the door was kicked open, and two people entered and started fighting with Zhamu.
Jamukha struggled to deal with even one of them, let alone two, and was quickly captured.
"Who are you?" Jamukha asked, looking at the two men.
One of them slowly pulled off his mask and looked at Jamukha. "Deng Yi, it's been a long time."
Jamukha stared at the person in front of him, startled. "Xiao Yanchu?"
The visitors were Xiao Yanchu and Hu Qing.
Hu Qing tied Zhamuhe up, and Xiao Yanchu sat down beside him. Seeing that there was still a trace of hope in Zhamuhe's eyes, Xiao Yanchu smiled and said, "What, still thinking that the guards in the manor will come to rescue you? Don't worry, they can't take care of you for a while."
Jamukha also realized that the fight between him and Xiao Yanchu had been quite loud, and the guards in the manor should have arrived long ago.
The fact that no one has shown up now can only mean that these people have already been dealt with by Xiao Yanchu and his group.
Jamukha stared intently at Xiao Yanchu. He tried hard to recall why Xiao Yanchu could recognize him when he hadn't given anything away.
Xiao Yanchu noticed the question in Jamukha's eyes, "Aren't you curious about how I recognized you?"
Jamukha didn't say anything, he just looked at Xiao Yanchu.
"Deng Yi, oh no, it should be Jamukha. I admit your disguise skills are very impressive. You really fooled everyone in the Great Chu. Who would have thought that the dignified Dali Temple Vice Minister of the Great Chu would actually be a Northern Li person in disguise?"
I must say, your chess move was brilliant.
Unfortunately, no matter how good the art of disguise is, it can change a person's face, but it cannot change a person's eyes.
If Deng Yi hadn't provoked Su Muyao and had quietly remained the Vice Minister of the Court of Judicial Review, Xiao Yanchu might not have noticed him, much less have been so familiar with his gaze.
The difference between remembering a portrait and remembering a look is significant.
When Xiao Yanchu saw Jamukha at the banquet, he only felt that his eyes looked somewhat familiar, but he couldn't remember where he was.
It wasn't until later, when he recalled the portrait of Fu Dongsheng's family and recognized Fu Cheng, that he realized the familiar eyes belonged to none other than Deng Yi!
After returning from Xiaoyue, Ajin went to see Deng Yi, who had been captured by Yunniang. After asking a few questions, she realized that the person was not Deng Yi at all.
In the past few days, Xiao Yanchu had Yue Ling's people secretly investigate and learned that Jamukha was not in Jingqiang before, and only recently returned.
Moreover, Jamukha speaks fluent Da Chu Mandarin. If one did not know that he was from Bei Li, one would think he was from Da Chu just by listening to his accent.
Yue Ling's men had been keeping an eye on Jamukha and discovered that he had frequented the Qinwang Mansion and the Xiaoyong Mansion.
All indications suggest that Jamukha is very likely the real Deng Yi.
In addition, Jamukha's appearance is extremely similar to the person Yi'er described who kidnapped him.
If he is Deng Yi, all the mysteries can be solved.
Upon hearing Xiao Yanchu's words, Jamukha narrowed his eyes slightly, but remained silent.
Xiao Yanchu said to Hu Qing, "Go and look for it."
"Yes." Hu Qing began searching around.
Soon they found a small box. When they opened it, they found it was divided into two compartments. One compartment contained different human skin masks, and the other compartment also contained human skin masks, but they all looked the same.
Hu Qing took out an identical leather face mask and casually stuck it on Jamukha's face. It was immediately recognizable as Deng Yi's face.
"Zhamuhe, you've hidden this move quite well. First, you killed the real Deng Yi, and then used his identity to hide among the officials of the Great Chu."
However, Deng Yi's initial official position was not high enough to satisfy your ambition. It is likely that you orchestrated the Majia Village case to give yourself a chance for promotion and access to more secrets of the Great Chu.
The family that died in Majia Village was also someone you arranged, wasn't it?
