Su Jin ordered the others to go out and wait for the time being, leaving only himself, Zhu Laizi and Rou Niang who wrote the transcript.
Su Jin stood up, came to Zhu Laizi, patted his shoulder and said: "Manager Zhu, with all due respect, I'm afraid you won't live long."
Zhu Lezi was shocked: "Don't you want to kill me?"
Su Jin smiled and said: "Why should I kill you? It was just a small friction between you and me. It was all resolved that night. It's not me who wants to kill you now."
Zhu Lezi said: "I know it's Xiao Hu. It must be this bandit who is causing trouble behind my back. This time the bandit intercepted me on the way and killed me, it must have been this kid who let me know."
Su Jin sighed: "Even if you die, you will only be an unjust ghost. Can Xiao Hu do this? He may have the intention of ostracizing you, but he dares to do something so brazen? Besides, the thieves in Kuangfeng Village will listen.
What he assigned? It’s a joke.”
Zhu Lezi said doubtfully: "You mean...Seventh Master?"
"Can Master Qi control the bandits?"
"Then what you mean is...Prince?"
Su Jin blinked silently, smiled strangely, and didn't answer.
Zhu Laizi shook his head in disbelief and said: "Your Majesty can't push me out just for a few lives. Besides, if Your Majesty wants to kill me, you don't need to bother yourself. Just give me an order and I will die without a burial place."
Su Jin said: "First of all, the prince did not kill a few people for you and then abandon you. Do you know that the note you wrote to me has been taken away by them?"
Zhu Laizi was shocked and said: "What? Did the written certificate fall into the hands of the prince?"
Su Jin said: "I have no choice. I have hidden myself in the iron box in the secret room. Unfortunately, they took advantage of my absence and brought people to force the servants to open the secret room and take away the note. No wonder.
I, this alone is enough for the prince to kill you."
Although Zhu Lezi was very angry with Su Jin, he also knew that there was really nothing Su Jin could do about it. The prince was determined to get the evidence, fearing that no one would be able to keep it, but he didn't know how they knew about the existence of the evidence.
Su Jin seemed to understand what he was thinking, and sighed: "No one knows about this document except the servants in my family and you and me. It's a pity that I met someone unkind, and one of the servants in the family was bribed and said
This incident happened, so we have this section; I have buried that servant alive, which can be regarded as a relief for you."
Zhu Laizi was relieved, so that was the case. No wonder Su Jin wanted to exclude others and only talk to himself alone. It seemed that he was frightened and didn't believe anyone else.
"Secondly, it is not easy for the prince to kill you. The German Guards in the city have already intervened and are patrolling the city day and night. Killing people openly may lead to disaster. The Royal Guards are not something that the prince can mobilize.
That is an army under the direct control of the Privy Council, and you must be aware of this; and you have more than a dozen brothers who are determined to die, and it is not easy to deal with them. If they attack you secretly, or summon you to use poisonous wine or something to deal with you secretly, you will be able to do it secretly.
Maybe, it's just that you just messed up something, and suddenly the prince's house invites you to attend a banquet. Even if you are a pig, you will feel that something is wrong. If you notice it, things will become even worse."
Zhu Lezi listened with fear to Su Jin's analysis of his own life and death. In the past, he had never cared about the life and death of others. Now that his own life and death were being discussed casually by others, Zhu Lezi felt even more frightened and uneasy.
"But the best way is to transfer you out of the city, order you to go to the mountain stronghold to join the gang on the pretext of protecting you, and then order someone to set up an ambush to kill all ten of you, and then blame the bandits.
, there will be no further trouble, the prince’s evil spirit has come out, you can only lie in some dark grass and slowly rot and get maggots; you are lucky enough to escape, but you are too brainless.
, If you dare to come back to the city at this time, I'm afraid your life will be in danger, and life or death is only a matter of time."
Zhu Lezi remained silent. He did not want to believe Su Jin's words, but he also understood that Su Jin's analysis was indeed reasonable.
"Manager Zhu, does what I'm saying make sense?"
"I'm afraid... what you said is the truth. These bastards treat me like a rag to wipe my butt, and throw it away after use. I'm not done with them!"
When Rou Niang heard these dirty words, her face turned red and she quickly lowered her head.
Su Jin said: "What can you do? In this Yingtian Mansion, you are just an ant. The prince can pinch you however he wants. Do you have any room to resist?"
Zhu Lezi said: "No wonder as soon as I entered the city at night, the city was full of government officials searching for people. Is it aimed at me?"
Su Jin laughed loudly and said: "You? It takes so much effort to kill you? Do you want to know who those people are looking for?"
"Take who?"
"I..." Su Jin pointed to his nose.
"You? Have you offended the government?"
"No, it was the government that offended me."
"Then you can't protect yourself?"
"Do you think I'm in trouble? They're arresting me, and I'm arresting you too. This shabby house is prepared for you. Where I live, there's wine, meat, and women. I'm very free.
, what can they do to me?"
"Who are you?" Zhu Laizi was surprised.
"Don't ask me who I am. I'm someone they can't deal with. I just want to keep a low profile, so I don't want to confront them head-on."
"Then what's your purpose of arresting me?" Zhu Laizi was almost passed out after being tortured by Su Jin, his mind was in a mess.
"Do you want to die?" Su Jin asked.
Zhu Lezi thought to himself, what is this? Who is willing to die?
"An ant is still living an ignoble life. Although my life, Zhu Lezi, is not valuable, I have been raised by my parents for decades, so naturally I don't want to die."
"This is the truth, but your current situation seems to be beyond your control. What do you think?"
"I...I..." Zhu Lezi wanted to say a few tough words, but he really didn't have the confidence to say them out.
"I have two ways here. It's up to you to choose. Don't force it." Su Jin learned and applied Yan Shu's tricks.
"You said it, I'm listening." Zhu Lezi felt that Su Jin seemed to be a life-saving straw, and he had to grab it quickly.
"The first way is, I will let you go and I will never embarrass you. As long as you nod, I will immediately order someone to blindfold you and send you out of my place, and put you somewhere in the city. When the time comes, the sea and the sky will be vast, and you can go wherever you like.
It has nothing to do with me; but I would like to kindly remind you that the curfew will begin in the four cities tonight, so you must hide and be sure not to be seen."
Zhu Lezi said with a mournful face: "You are sure to catch me and then drive me out. Where can I go?"
Su Jin said: "That's your business. Didn't you hide well on the street before we took you? How did you survive it before? How can you survive it now?"
Zhu Lezi scratched his head and said: "I was looking for my old sweetheart just now, but when she saw me in this state, with no money and injuries, this bitch wanted to drive me away, and I killed her in anger.
She hid in her room for a while, but the official came to search for her. Seeing that I couldn't hide, I escaped, and while I was walking around, I was knocked unconscious, and when I woke up, I was here."
Su Jin cursed secretly, this Zhu Lezi really didn't regret his death. He entered the city with blackmail, and in just a short time, another life was lost on his hands.
Su Jin patted her hand to express comfort, then turned to Zhu Lezi and said, "Then you are not going to choose this one, are you?"
"What's the second option, I'd like to know."
"The second option is that you cooperate with me and listen to my instructions. I guarantee that I will send you out of the city safely and soundly in the morning, but you need to tell me what you know about Prince Teng, Tang Fuyin, and Kuangfeng Village.
Tell me everything about the robbers and make a confession."
"Are you going to make a written statement again? Aren't you forcing me to die?" Zhu Laizi shook his head like a rattle.
"It's different this time. I will send your confession and evidence to the capital and to the Third Secretary. You don't have to worry about being searched by Prince Teng."
"Are you going to deal with the prince? Have you taken the courage of a leopard?" Zhu Laizi couldn't believe his ears. The weak young man in front of him actually wanted to fight with Prince Teng. He didn't seem to be on the same level.
"Yes, you are right. I just want to expose his face. If he doesn't get rid of me, will you be able to live in peace in this life? You should be happy when I do this."
"Can you bring down Prince Teng by taking my confession? This is too childish."
Su Jindao: "Of course I have other evidence. Do you think I've been here in Yingtian for a few months just to fool around? How to bring him down is my business. It's my business whether you agree or not. If you don't agree, I
Ask someone to take you out immediately. If you don't say anything, someone will."
Zhu Laizi was deep in thought. He would definitely be dead if he went out now. Su Jin and the others would not be so kind as to throw him outside the city or anywhere in the city. With his injured body, it would be impossible for him to do so.
If they can't escape, they might even knock themselves unconscious and throw them directly into the prince's courtyard. It's definitely not appropriate to go out.
If he cooperates with Su Jin, according to Su Jin, he wants to overthrow the prince, but it is not credible no matter how he thinks about this matter. Su Jin said that he is related to the Third Secretary in Beijing, which is even more unbelievable. The Third Secretary
If you want to deal with the prince, will you entrust the matter to an ordinary-looking young man? Moreover, if your confession is handed over, you will still not be able to escape the investigation, and you may still die. This road is not possible.
