Inside the Heaven Tier room of Zi Lan Xuan.
Chu He and Zhang Liang sat opposite each other. He seemed to be in a good mood today and actually took the initiative to say,
"This wine is the Apricot Blossom White that Miss Zinu specially provided me with from the State of Zhao.”
As he spoke, Chu He raised his wine glass and said,"Zifang, you can try it."”
Zhang Liang didn't move and was deep in thought.
"Zifang, you seem to have something on your mind?”Chu He asked.
"Tomorrow is the last day of the deadline.。”Zhang Liang's eyes flickered as he spoke.
"Are you worried?" Chu He knew the other party's urgency.
After all, if he couldn't solve the case, his grandfather would be beheaded according to the decree.
"Although Lord Anping and Lord Longquan have been confirmed as suspects, if they refuse to admit their crimes, they won't be able to be convicted with their identities.”
Zhang Liang quickly said as he looked at the young man's ease.
Over the past few days, since the two lords were imprisoned, Marquis An Le continued to live a carefree life. Even when he asked Han Fei, he said that he didn't have to care about this matter.
This made the two grandsons of the Zhang family very anxious and uneasy.
Chu He looked at the other party's distressed expression and immediately said,"Zifang, come and take a look."”
With that, Chu He picked up the wooden board and saw two small people, one fat and one thin, standing opposite each other.
Chu He pointed at the boardwalk." What can you see from this?“
"Two people?" Zhang Liang asked in confusion.”
Chu He said helplessly,"Could it be that the painting is so bad?" Don't you think they look like Lord Anping and Lord Longquan?”
Zhang Liang nodded in realization and quickly said," With your guidance, it looks a little similar!”
Chu He laughed loudly." Hahaha, the one who knows me is Zi Fang.”
Then, he drew a straight line under the feet of the two little people on the wooden board. "Now, what do you see?”
Zhang Liang said," Lord Anping and Lord Longquan are standing on both ends of the wooden board.”
Chu He remained silent. He added a triangle in the middle of the bottom.
The scene between the two of them at this moment was just like the 'you draw, I guess' in ancient times.
"This is a scale." Zhang Liang responded.”
"The scale on the bottomless abyss seems dangerous, but as long as the two of them can cooperate well, it will be dangerous.”
Just as Chu He finished speaking, Zhang Liang quickly added,"Then let's break this tacit understanding."”
Chu He nodded in agreement. He slowly drew a black wall in the middle of the wooden board.
"What do you think?"
The black wall on the wooden board directly blocked the communication between Lord Anping and Lord Longquan, making it impossible for them to communicate.
"Although the two of them can no longer communicate with each other, as long as they maintain their original state, they can still maintain balance.”Zhang Liang's eyes lit up slightly.
Chu He seemed to like Zhang Liang quite a lot and wanted him to owe him a favor.
Immediately, the young man continued," Then increase it!”
He drew a line on each of the two little people's heads and shook his head as he explained,
"Whoever confesses first will be exonerated and released immediately. However, the other person will probably be sentenced to death.”
"Lord Marquis is indeed better than me. I truly admire you.”Zhang Liang hurriedly cupped his hands and said.
"Do you understand now?" Chu He looked at him with a smile.
"Understood. This game is about to end.”Zhang Liang also smiled.
At this moment, a soldier walked over and bowed to the two of them.
"Lord Marquis, there's an urgent message from the prison. Lord Anping and Lord Longquan are seeking an audience with Young Master and are willing to confess.”
two hours later
Under the lead of the soldiers, the two of them arrived at the prison.
The dark prison was filled with fluorescent eyes, and clusters of bats flew towards them.
He saw that Lord Anping's fat body was sitting with his back to the door, not making a sound. The soldier boldly turned his shoulder.
"Pata." An extremely ugly death was revealed. His brows were tightly furrowed, his mouth was wide open, and his eyes and nose were bleeding.
Seeing this terrifying scene, the soldier shouted in horror and trembled as he said,
"This is exactly the same as when the chief judge died. It's a ghost soldier!! The ghost soldiers are here!"
At this moment, Han Fei also ran over quickly and bowed respectfully to Chu He.
However, when he saw the image of the deceased, his expression could not help but darken." Are we still too late?”
He picked up Lord Anping's confession, and the words were written in spots:
Lord Longquan and I were greedy for the army's pay. We plotted against it, but we didn't expect to attract the ghost soldiers of Zheng and bring chaos to the world. The ghost soldiers had been disturbed for days, and they were terrified. If we don't die, I'm afraid that the ghost's army won't stop, so I'll die to apologize. The King of Han should not continue to investigate. He was afraid of getting into trouble.
"Lord Longquan's confession is the same. They committed suicide at the same time, and their deaths were strange."
"Lord Marquis, Brother Han, look!" Zhang Liang picked up the red string on the corpse and continued,"
"Both of them are the same!"
"Could it really be the ghost soldiers…"
While Han Fei and Zhang Liang were discussing the case, Chu He was also pondering calmly.
One had to know that not long ago, he had just seriously injured Mo Ya. Logically speaking, the other party should not be able to move for a short period of time.
Then, who was able to pass through the heavily guarded prison of the Han Country without being discovered by the guards and kill them to silence them?
In an instant, Chu He suddenly thought of the most easily overlooked person in the original novel: "White Phoenix."
He didn't expect that he would still miss out on this guy.
Ji Wuye, it seems that you are really afraid of me.
At this moment, the soldier ran back." Lord Marquis, the things you ordered are here.”
"What is this?" Zhang Liang quickly stood up and asked curiously.
"These are the two Wangye's daily meals from a few days ago.”
After saying that, Chu He picked up the silver needle handed over by the soldier and stabbed it into the rice. In the next moment, the end of the needle that was pulled out turned black.
"It's poisonous!" Han Fei and Zhang Liang widened their eyes and said in unison.
"If it really is a ghost soldier, do we need to use poison?”
At this time, Han Fei also reacted. He quickly echoed," Is it possible that someone doesn't want us to continue investigating the case?”
Chu He nodded slightly, as if he finally found it interesting. He looked at the two of them and muttered to himself,
"Perhaps, this is the finishing touch to the entire scheme.”
