After hearing this, he showed an expression of helplessness and realization, and finally sighed and slowly said, "I am Jiang Qi, the Minister of Dali Temple."
"You?" Lance narrowed his eyes. The serious and cold aura was indeed consistent with the image of the Chief Justice of the Sheng Dynasty that he had always had.
He paused for a moment and laughed at himself: "I should have known that she didn't say a word of truth."
Then he asked, "Who is she then? The Dali Temple listens to her orders? You didn't blame her for pretending to be the Dali Temple Chief Justice, and the detectives also cooperated by calling her the Chief Justice."
Jiang Qi's face was stern: "You should know where this place is. You have no right to ask who she is."
"You knew that Xili had signed the surrender agreement, but why did you disguise yourself and hide in Shengjing City? Or is this a conspiracy of your entire Xili?"
Lance smiled and said, "Yes, it's the whole Xili conspiracy. It was Princess Alice of Xili who ordered me to come to Shengjing City."
Jiang Qi sat calmly after hearing this, unmoved. He didn't know whether he believed it or not. He just asked, "Oh? What do you want me to do?"
"Can I still live if I tell you?"
"If you tell me, you can die comfortably. If you don't, you will live a life worse than death and you will not be able to die even if you want to."
Jiang Qi spoke the truth without giving any unnecessary thoughts.
"Oh, I've heard that the Ministry of Punishment of the Dali Temple of the Sheng Dynasty is the living Yama Palace." Lance looked around at the dazzling array of torture instruments hanging on the wall, and suddenly changed the subject and said slowly, "In fact, Xili has always been divided into two factions regarding the issue of surrender."
Jiang Qi narrowed his eyes and listened quietly.
"One faction is led by Princess Alice, who advocates surrender, and the other is led by the eldest prince Lance, who advocates a fight to the death and would rather turn his head than surrender."
"But more ministers in the royal court support surrender, so they all stand on the side of Princess Alice. The eldest prince Lance is weak and it is difficult for him to instigate all the ministers to turn the tide, so surrendering to the Sheng Dynasty is a foregone conclusion."
Jiang Qi heard this, lowered his eyes, twirled his fingers, and suddenly said something irrelevant: "You speak very well in Mandarin."
Lance said: "I am a spy trained by Xili, so I must be proficient in Dasheng Mandarin."
Jiang Qi nodded: "You are very sensible."
"Of course. Don't you have a saying in Dasheng that a man who knows the current situation is a hero?"
"So you are a member of the die-hard war faction, sneaking into Shengjing City to disrupt Xili's pilgrimage."
Jiang Qi said, "You said you were sent by Princess Xili in order to stir up trouble and create a trust crisis in our Great Sheng towards Xili. In the final analysis, your goal is to prevent Xili from submitting to the Great Sheng."
When Lance heard this, a hint of hidden sadness flashed in his eyes, but it was quickly covered up.
He smiled with a sigh, "A real man with a country and a family, how can he hope to depend on another dynasty? It's a pity that everyone is scared by Lu Ren, no one wants to continue fighting, even the king has been captured, and the royal court is unwilling to fight to the death. It seems that we Xili have only one way to go, which is to surrender."
Jiang Qi's mouth curled up with disdain and ridicule when he heard this: "Don't talk as if we, the Sheng Dynasty, are bullying you, Xili. Are you so pitiful?"
"It was you, Xili, who attacked Xiqinguan first. If General Lu hadn't conquered Xili with overwhelming force, where would you be now? Don't act like you are a victim now. As citizens of Dasheng, no one will sympathize with you."
"If you have the guts to fight us, be prepared for us to fight you at home."
Lance lowered his eyes and nodded: "That makes sense, we just have different positions. I am for Xili, and you are for Dasheng."
Jiang Qi asked again: "Then how did you originally plan to disrupt this pilgrimage?"
"Since I've been captured, I can't do it. What does it matter whether I tell you or not?"
Jiang Qi was about to say something when suddenly a strange fragrance came faintly. They frowned and shouted, "It's a drug incense! Cover your mouth and nose!"
There was a sound of fierce fighting outside the interrogation room, and immediately, five masked men in black broke in.
Jiang Qi covered his mouth and nose with one hand, tightly grasped his sword Ning An with the other hand, stood in front of Lance, and looked coldly outside the door.
The two young officials stood on either side of Lance, both with stern expressions.
"Chengjun, Wei Ling, keep an eye on him."
The smoke gradually dissipated, Jiang Qi took a step and flew up, fighting with several men in black. The flashing swords were dazzling.
Lance held his breath to avoid inhaling the smoke. He looked at the man in black, his eyes flashed, and then he exerted force with his hands, but did not want to break free.
Li Chengjun sneered and said, "It's made of black iron, how can it be so easy to break?"
Lance narrowed his eyes.
Many detectives inhaled some smoke at the beginning, and some of their hands and feet became weak, making them no match for the extremely skilled men in black.
But they gritted their teeth and chopped at him with their knives.
Jiang Qi blocked the attack for one of the detectives, then kicked him away: "Get out of the way!"
Soon, Jiang Qi was the only one left fighting against the five men in black.
The fight between the imperial guards outside the gate continued without stopping.
At this time, a man in black broke through Jiang Qi's defense, rolled in front of Lance, and met his gaze directly.
Upon seeing this, Wei Ling and Cheng Jun wanted to draw their swords, but their movements were a little slow, which showed that they were not good at martial arts.
Before the sword was drawn, it was kicked away by the man in black.
Lance said quickly: "The black iron chain cannot be cut."
Jiang Qi frowned when he saw the man in black approaching Lance, but he was entangled by four other men in black and could not escape.
The man in black took a look at the black iron chain, flew back, and slashed at the bottom pillar of the wooden stake of the interrogation stand.
In an instant, the pillar broke violently, and Lance staggered slightly while carrying the cross-like interrogation rack on his back.
He looked back in shock, not expecting this kind of operation.
"Go!" the man in black growled.
After he finished speaking, he led the way with a sword in hand, and Lance followed behind him with his arms outstretched, carrying a heavy cross on his back.
Lance: ...
I don't know why, even though I was saved, I felt inexplicably embarrassed.
If Wen Yu was there, she would definitely laugh until her head was all over the floor.
I will also sing the line: How can I describe you most appropriately~
Seeing the people being rescued, one of the men in black shouted "Retreat", and the rest of the people stopped fighting and fled in all directions.
The commander of the imperial guards raised his hand and waved: "Chase!"
After a while, Jiang Qi slowly walked to his side, smiled and said, "Thank you for your hard work, Commander Han, in holding back these men in black."
Han Yun smiled and said, "Thank you for your hard work, Lord Jiang. It turned out just as expected."
At this time, the two Shaoqings, Li Chengjun and Wei Ling, who were kicked away, patted the footprints on their bodies and said with a wry smile: "Sir, these two kicks are really not light..."
Jiang Qi patted their shoulders and looked into the distance: "Your Majesty wanted to lure the snake out of its hole, and he really caught a big fish. Now it's up to the fish-snatching guards."
Li Chengjun heard this and said, "There is a lot of internal fighting in Xili. The princess of Xili wants to surrender, but the prince is unwilling. I am afraid that this matter will change."
Jiang Qi said with a half-smile: "Do you believe it? Just listen to it."
