Chapter 446: Almost silenced in the past

Zhou Daqian met Yue Haoyun's eyes, and for a moment, he was moved by the scene and sobbed again.

Yue Haoyun handed him a handkerchief and said softly: "Now is not the time to cry. Tell me, who harmed you? Who sent you to that place?"

In fact, after listening to Zhou Daqian's words, everyone had some guesses in their hearts.

The eunuchs who served the emperor personally before were of higher status than the eunuchs in other palaces.

Usually, after the emperor passed away, even if the new emperor did not like the eunuchs who served the previous emperor, he would usually transfer them to other places to serve.

For people like Sun Gonggong, who was the chief eunuch of the previous emperor and was older, the new emperor would reward them with a pension and release them back to their hometown to live out their days.

Therefore, those who dared to harm them must not be ordinary people.

Zhou Daqian wiped his tears vigorously and said in a calm tone: "I don't know who gave the order."

"But, just when we were transported out of the city, I was lying in the carriage and vaguely heard the voices of a man and a woman talking outside the carriage." "

At that time, they should have thought that we were still unconscious and there was no need to worry about talking. But because I had internal strength, I had already woken up."

Yue Haoyun heard this and asked excitedly: "What did they say?"

"The man said that the people in the car must not be kept and must all be killed. Because only when people die can we guarantee that the secret will not be told."

"The woman said that he was too cautious and sending people to the Insect Temple would be foolproof. Moreover, he could make some contributions to Dayue before he died."

"She said that her Insect Temple was in need of slaves."

"I didn't understand what the woman meant at the time, but later I realized that the place we were taken to was called the Insect Temple."

"It was an underground palace located in Yin Mountain, and it was also one of the witch's territories."

"There were people who studied insects, and there were also many servants who did odd jobs. The next were people like me who were specially provided for them to test insects, and were called slaves."

When everyone heard this, they suddenly realized that there was a place called the Insect Temple.

Moreover, Zhou Daqian and other slaves were originally imprisoned in the Insect Temple.

Yue Haoyun asked hurriedly: "Then can you tell who the man and woman are by their voices?"

"Your Highness, it sounds like Han Lie, but I can't recognize the woman. It seems that she is someone I don't know." "

However, judging from the tone of the woman's voice, she should be from the witch's side, because she said, 'Our Insect Temple.'"

Zhou Daqian scratched his head and said, "By the way, the man asked the woman several times, how are the guards of the Insect Temple, and whether the insect slaves will escape."

"After the woman explained several times, she seemed impatient and laughed, as if she was mocking the man. She also said something like, you are just too timid. She also said something like, anyway, Daxia's national strength is declining, so what if they know it's you?"

"Then the man sighed and said, what do you know."

Xia Miaoyuan felt numb when she heard this, [Ahhh! Han Lie!]

[It makes sense. The one who dared to kill the eunuchs around the late emperor could only be a powerful person. Han Lie was already the prime minister of the dynasty at that time, and he was also an old minister entrusted by the late emperor. This identity is very suitable!]

[Han Lie wanted to kill these eunuchs to silence them, it must be to cover up some shocking secret.]

[The woman said that the national strength of Daxia has declined, even if they know it was you, what can they do... Could it be that the one who gave the idea to the late emperor of Dai Viet to poison my uncle with a snake was Han Lie? ! 】

When Xia Miaoyuan thought of this, she felt as if the blood in her body had solidified. She couldn't help but pull the sleeve of the second prince. She really wanted to tell him these thoughts immediately.

The second prince was also very excited when he heard his sister's speculation.

Moreover, he concluded that the reason why Han Lie wanted to kill people to silence them should not be just because of this matter.

Yue Haoyun is a smart person. After hearing what Zhou Daqian said, he naturally thought of these things.

For a moment, the scene fell into silence.

Yue Haoyun stroked his chin and asked again: "Daqian, do you know what secrets of Lord Han? Can it make him want to kill people to silence them?" When

everyone heard Yue Haoyun ask the question directly, they were excited again and looked at Zhou Daqian.

【Hurry up and tell me! See if my guess is right! 】

However, everyone stared at Zhou Daqian's mouth, but did not wait for the expected answer.

Zhou Daqian frowned and shook his head, saying: "I don't know either..."

"Lord Han is a confidant of the late emperor. He often came to the Yuhua Palace to have secret talks with the late emperor. They talked too much."

"If it is a secret, probably all the contents of the secret talks are secrets."

"Besides, I was only responsible for guarding the Yuhua Palace at that time, and I was not serving the late emperor. The one serving him was my master, Eunuch Sun."

"If there is anyone who knows the most about the confidential matters of Lord Han and the late emperor, it is none other than Eunuch Sun."

Xia Miaoyuan rolled his eyes speechlessly, [No one else but Eunuch Sun... Isn't this just useful nonsense? 】

【You just said that Grandpa Sun has passed away. What's the use of him knowing the most? 】

Yue Haoyun continued to ask: "Then did your master tell you anything later?"

Zhou Daqian's eyes flickered when he heard this, and then he said: "Nothing."

Now, everyone was even more disappointed.

Yue Haoyun patted his shoulder and said: "Okay, Daqian. You go and rest first. Rest well here, and I will come to see you again."

Zhou Daqian bowed to Yue Haoyun again, then turned around and left. After taking two steps, he turned back to look at Yue Haoyun, as if he had something to say. After hesitating for a moment, he returned to the room.

Seeing Zhou Daqian leave, the second prince immediately said to Wang Meng: "Find us an empty room."

Yue Haoyun immediately understood that the second prince wanted to talk to him about something confidential, and followed him tacitly.

Inside the room, the second prince and Yue Haoyun sat opposite each other, Xia Miaoyuan lay outside the door, looking inside through the crack of the door.

"Second Prince, what did you think of?" Yue Haoyun said straight to the point.

The second prince stroked his chin and said, "Back then, the Great Yue witch came to my Great Xia and put a trap on my uncle. It was probably Han Lie's idea."

Yue Haoyun nodded, "I think so too. Besides, Han Lie should have some shocking secrets besides this."

"Otherwise, it's just a vicious plot to persecute the prince of Great Xia. He wouldn't be that scared."

The second prince said, "That makes sense. Then let's check it out next."

"I firmly believe that as long as a person has done something, it will definitely leave traces. No matter how he hides it, he can't hide it."
