Besides, the only one who had a conflict with Empress Ma was Concubine Liu, who was extremely favored in the harem.
As long as Empress Ma is eliminated, who will be the mother of the country and who will ascend to the throne?
Whoever benefits the most has the greatest motivation.
Although there are suspicions, there is no evidence at the moment and no one dares to speak nonsense.
Just as the two were talking, a sharp scolding voice suddenly came from outside: "How dare you! Who gave you the guts to talk about Concubine Liu behind her back like that?"
The two men shuddered immediately, and the wine glasses in their hands fell to the ground. They looked over here in horror, with deep fear in their eyes.
One of them even subconsciously drew out a knife, and with a "swish" sound, a cold light flashed.
The firelight in the room where the two were was flickering, reflecting on their terrified faces, making them look particularly hideous.
Then a man in a black robe and a figure as big as a hill walked in.
The person in the lead was Ye Feiyun, and behind him was Ye Ding who looked confused. Ye Ding was laughing, and a terrifying smile appeared on his big face, looking a little terrified.
"Who are you?" One of them frowned immediately, "Don't you know that in this prison..."
Before he could finish his words, Ye Feiyun was seen waving the Liu family badge in the air.
"What is this? Do you recognize it?"
The man's face immediately showed a look of astonishment, and he slowly turned his head to look at his colleague. The colleague next to him obviously also saw the token in Ye Feiyun's hand and looked terrified.
"The one who came in is the master of the Liu family, you..."
"Stop talking nonsense!"
Ye Ding pretended to be deep and said something, then immediately asked the two of them: "I want to ask you, where are the four great Vajra guards?"
An embarrassed look immediately appeared on the two men's faces, and their hearts skipped a beat, as if they had figured something out.
After all, the four Vajras who went to assassinate Queen Ma were arrested, and now people from the Liu family have come again. They were just discussing whether the Liu family sent these four people.
Now that the people from the Liu family have arrived, they are asking about where the Four Heavenly Kings are being held. This can easily lead to people's wild imaginations.
The two men looked grim, "Sir, this prison..."
Ye Feiyun glared suddenly, with a fierce light in his eyes.
Just one glance was enough to make the clerk shudder and look cold. He felt as if he was being stared at by the god of death. He felt cold sweat all over his body and his clothes on his back were soaked with sweat.
I was afraid that if I said one more word, I would be killed.
After a moment of silence, one of them said tremblingly, "It's inside."
"Humph!" Ye Feiyun snorted coldly, "Get out!"
"Ah." The two of them immediately looked embarrassed.
"Sir, please don't embarrass me, the superiors..."
Ye Ding bulged his eyes, took a step forward, and panted heavily, like a bellows. "You two are quite courageous. Didn't you hear what my master said?"
"Are you going or not?!"
Ye Feiyun cast an approving look at Ye Ding. This time, the other party did not call him "Young Master".
There has been progress.
The two looked at Ye Ding's huge body. When he stood up, he looked like a roaring bear. The muscles in his arms were as thick as their thighs.
At the moment, he didn't dare to say much, but just said hesitantly and tremblingly:
"Then... then please don't cause any trouble..."
The assassin who assassinated Queen Ma has been arrested and imprisoned in the prison. Then the biggest suspect, the Liu family, came to the prison. Now they are about to be expelled. What will happen next?
They didn't dare to think about it.
One of them looked embarrassed and trembling, refusing to go out.
Ye Feiyun understood what he meant and immediately winked at Ye Ding.
Ye Ding did not hesitate and stopped threatening. He just stretched out his two big hands like palm-leaf fans and knocked on the necks of the two men quickly. With a "clang", the two men fell to the ground, their limbs twitching, their eyes rolled back, and their bodies limp.
Obviously fainted.
"Why hit so hard?!"
Ye Feiyun stepped forward to check and sniffed the two men's breath.
"You're still breathing. Be gentle next time. What if you kill someone?"
"Master, it's okay. I still have some strength left in my hands." Ye Ding explained hurriedly.
Ye Feiyun looked at him helplessly, then looked into the distance.
I saw that there was another door inside the room the two men were guarding. There was a flickering fire inside. From a distance, I could see the hot breath coming towards me, burning my face with a burning pain.
It goes without saying that it is an interrogation room, and as for who is imprisoned, Ye Feiyun already has an idea in his mind.
At this moment, a weak voice begging for mercy came from inside: "Help!"
Then a shadow appeared extremely conspicuous on the wall under the light of the fire.
Ye Feiyun's face changed as he recognized the voice. He immediately took the lead and walked in, and Ye Ding hurriedly followed.
At this moment, on the rack, the four great Vajras were tied up, their upper bodies naked, leaning on it. There was not an inch of good skin on their bodies, and they were covered with bruises and blood.
The layers of crystal wounds revealed the white bones, which was shocking to look at. His face was bruised and swollen.
The coal on the iron rack next to it was burning red, sizzling, and sending up a burst of hot air.
"Ah!" The Four Heavenly Kings heard footsteps coming, and Qinglong's trembling voice rang out: "Stop hitting me, I really can't stand it anymore. Please, just give us a quick death."
"Let me ask you, have you said anything when people from the Ministry of Justice asked you questions during this period of time?" Ye Feiyun's voice suddenly rang out.
Qinglong looked up suddenly as if he had heard something extraordinary. "Master... Master... Master Ye... Young Master Ye, you're finally here. We... We haven't said anything."
Hope appeared in the eyes of several people.
It was as if I saw a savior!
"Oh, nothing?" Ye Ding did not rush to untie the shackles of the Four Heavenly Kings, but sat down at the table and chairs nearby.
Ye Feiyun took out a piece of coal from a red-hot iron, dangled it in the air, then picked up a piece of coal with an iron clamp and blew on it. Immediately, smoke sprayed out and a flame rose.
"Let me ask you, what's the matter with the people from the Ministry of Justice saying that you went to assassinate Queen Ma?" Ye Feiyun looked at them meaningfully.
You should know that he originally asked them to assassinate Concubine Liu, but in the end they went to assassinate Empress Ma.
He was already worried that there was something fishy going on. Even if a few of them had IQ problems, it wouldn't be serious to this extent, right?
It is too outrageous that he can't even tell the difference between Concubine Liu and Empress Ma.
Aren’t you mentally retarded?!
Unexpectedly, a trace of bitterness appeared on the faces of Qinglong and his companions, and they cried out hesitantly, as if crying:
"Young Master Ye, you don't know. Imperial Concubine Liu and Empress Ma...they lived next to each other. We took the wrong path and were caught by the Imperial Guards."
