"The wind is tight!"
"Let's go!"
The two assassins who were fighting Meng Yi felt their hearts skip a beat when they saw that their four companions had been killed with a single strike.
At this moment, they realized that the information was wrong. This kid was not trash at all!
Instead, he was an extremely terrifying Sword Dao expert!
Therefore, seeing that the assassination attempt had failed, the two of them decisively gave up on their plan and prepared to escape.
"Crash…!"
However, the soldiers downstairs had already rushed up.
Ying Ziye, who was still sitting in the elegant room and tasting wine, also walked toward them with the Tianwen sword in his hand.
"It's not that easy to leave!"
Meng Yi took advantage of one of them being distracted and chopped off his head with his sword.
Just as he was about to deal with the last assassin, he saw that Ying Ziye had already placed the Tianwen sword on the last assassin's neck.
He moved so fast that he didn't even see what was going on.
"Tell me, who sent you?"
"If you confess truthfully, this Young Master will spare your life!”
Ying Ziye held the Tianwen sword in his hand and asked faintly.
"You want me to betray my master? Stop dreaming!”
"Humph!"
As the assassin spoke, he threw a pill into his mouth.
Soon, his eyes widened, and a trace of black blood flowed from the corner of his mouth. Then, with a plop, his corpse fell to the ground!
"Dead?"
Meng Yi felt a sense of regret when he saw that he had finally managed to capture a person alive and that he had died so quickly.
If all the assassins were dead, how could they find the mastermind?
"Men, surround the Drunken Fragrance Restaurant!”
"Not even a bird is allowed out!"
Just as he was about to look for clues on the corpses, Ying Ziye suddenly gave an order.
"Here!"
More than 1,000 elites immediately took action. In just a moment, the entire Drunken Fragrance Restaurant was surrounded!
"Your Highness, they are all dressed as Confucian scholars, and they have the waist tokens of Jixia Learning Palace disciples!”
"They seem to be from the scholarly faction!"
Meng Yi rummaged through the six corpses and finally took out six waist tokens.
"Ninth…Ninth Highness, this has nothing to do with me, right?”
"I…I don't know them either!”
When he heard that these assassins were from Jixia Learning Palace, Young Master Lu was so frightened that he immediately crawled over on his knees.
He was also a disciple of the scholarly faction, and so were these people!
Moreover, it was such a coincidence that just as he called Ying Ziye over today, the assassin made his move.
No matter how he looked at it, it seemed to have something to do with him.
Therefore, when he saw Ying Ziye's gaze, he was so scared that he almost lost his soul. He immediately crawled over on his knees.
"Tell me, who are these assassins?”
Ying Ziye sat back at the table, poured himself a glass of wine, took a sip, and asked faintly.
"It really has nothing to do with me!"
"I really don't know them!"
Young Master Lu was so anxious that he was about to cry. He cried and quickly denied it.
"These assassins obviously knew that Nine Hall His Highness was coming today!”
"Obviously, he also knows where Nine Hall His Highness will sit!”
"Otherwise, how could they have made preparations in advance?”
"And you're sitting so close to Nine Hall His Highness?”
Meng Yi seemed to have suddenly understood something. He stopped searching the body, grabbed Young Master Lu's collar, and began to interrogate him.
It was too dangerous just now!
If it wasn't for the fact that Nine Hall His Highness had hidden his strength and possessed terrifying strength, the consequences would have been unimaginable!
He didn't expect that someone would dare to assassinate the Ninth Prince.
Moreover, they had even sent six top-notch assassins at once!
Obviously, someone wanted to kill Nine Hall His Highness at all costs!
And the biggest suspect was this Young Master Lu!
The mastermind behind the scenes had used his relationship with the Ninth Young Master to ask him out and then take the opportunity to assassinate him!
Such a plan could be said to be flawless!
Unfortunately, man's plan was not as good as God's!
The mastermind's plan was so thorough, but it still failed in the end!
"I really don't know anything!”
"I swear! Everything I said is true!"
"Wu, wu…!"
Young Master Lu almost peed his pants under his gaze. In his fear, he finally cried.
He had never seen such a scene before.
Although he did not do his job all day, he knew what kind of crime it was to collude with an assassin!
That was a serious crime that could exterminate nine generations!
Therefore, he broke down emotionally and could not help but cry.
"Does anyone else know that you asked me out?”
Seeing that he really didn't look like he was colluding with the assassin, Ying Ziye had to change the way he asked.
"No…no one knows."
"Oh, no, many people know. I came in to book a private room. I think many people here should know!”
Young Master Lu wiped his tears and said with a sad face.
"Then who asked you to ask me out?”
"This…I really don't have it!"
Young Master Lu thought for a moment and shook his head helplessly.
"Think about it carefully. Who asked you to ask me out? If you can't think of it, you're the mastermind!”
"At that time, the entire Lu family will be buried with you!”
Seeing that he didn't know anything, Ying Ziye suddenly became furious!
If he could not find the mastermind behind the scenes, he did not mind killing this idiot!
"There's really no one here…"
Young Master Lu collapsed on the ground, almost scared out of his wits.
Suddenly, he seemed to have thought of something and stood up," Oh right, Sixth Wang told me that a beauty came to Drunken Fragrance Restaurant. That's why I thought of inviting you out to play. Also, when I came to book a private room, he happened to be there!"”
"Old Sixth Wang?"
"Where is he now?"
Ying Ziye's eyes lit up, and he quickly asked.
"I don't know…"
"However, he is someone from Lord Zhao Gao's residence. He should be in the Zhao residence now.”
Young Master Lu shook his head and continued.
"Zhao Gao?"
When Young Master Lu said this name, Ying Ziye's eyes couldn't help but flash with two cold lights.
