Chapter 664: Questioning

Hearing the dragon king named by the Grand Captain, Fang Wen was about to step forward, and Gu Shenwei signaled the military division to retreat and decided to meet the battle in person.

"I used to be a killer. ”

Captain Dadu ignored the word "once" and stared at the Dragon King's face with a stern expression, "Do you think my judgment is correct? ”

"I don't know, the Grand Lieutenant has revealed too little information. ”

There was silence in the tent, and no one wanted to take the lead in such a thing, and maybe any word would cause a catastrophe.

"What more information do you need?" said the Grand Captain's voice, growing harsh.

Gu Shenwei looked back at the other party firmly, if the Grand Captain wanted to test the Dragon King's true thoughts, it would not be so easy, "For example, those five maids, since they are at the scene, they should see a little clue." ”

"Of course they're dead, the Dragon King wouldn't have thought of that, would he?"

King Zuo Yue, who had just succeeded to the throne, let out a short laugh, as if he thought the current scene was very interesting, and in a puzzled gaze, he coughed dryly twice, but did not say a word.

"As for the truth, the Captain of the Metropolitan is what he says, and I will not 'think' wildly, because even if I think of a hundred possibilities, I will not add a single cent to the facts. ”

The Grand Lieutenant was silent for a while, as if he was very dissatisfied with the Dragon King's answer, and was on the verge of anger, but when he spoke, his tone was much more relaxed, "Okay, I will only say what I saw, the five maids of the Old Khan King sat on the bed, in a circle, each of them was at an equal distance, without clothes, they all held a knife in their hands, and their bodies were covered with blood, especially on the side of their mouths, among the five people was the remains of the Old Khan King, headless, and a part was missing, which I saw with my own eyes, and there was no conjecture." ”

Everyone knew that the old Khan was dead, but few people knew the scene at that time, they were all generals with troops, they had seen countless corpses, and even killed many people with their own hands, and they were still frightened by some hints from the Grand Captain.

"You mean, they ate the body of the old Khan King?" asked the chubby King Zuo in a low voice, his face full of disgust.

"I think so. Dadu Wei deliberately emphasized the word "think", and his eyes still stopped at the dragon king.

Gu Shenwei was one of the few unmoved, "Who recognized the body of the old Khan King?"

"Personally. ”

"On the basis?"

Captain Dadu stretched out two fingers, "First, those five maids are the people of the old Khan King, and they will never be wrong, and second, I am the younger brother of the old Khan King, and I know his things, I dare to guarantee that the entire steppe will never find the second one as big as the second one." ”

This second basis was said by the always serious Grand Lieutenant, and it had a surprising comedic effect, everyone laughed out loud, and the Saint King slapped it the head, "That's right, I saw it once when I was a child, it was so big that I didn't sleep well for several days, and if I were those five maids, I probably wouldn't be able to stand it and want to kill." ”

The atmosphere became more and more lively, and King Zuo jumped up and said: "The words that say that real heroes are also different from ordinary people, it turns out to be true, let's not fight around, just take off our pants here, and compare whoever is the biggest, and make whoever is the king of Khan." ”

Before he finished speaking, King Zuo knew that he had said the wrong thing again, and although he didn't know what was wrong, the laughter suddenly stopped, and the eyes around him became cold, as if he was a fool.

King Zuo sat down with his head down, and kept turning the wine bowl in front of him, thinking that he might be a fool.

The Grand Lieutenant continued to control the direction of the conversation, "What else does the Dragon King have to ask?"

"The head is missing?"

"That's right, I didn't find anywhere. ”

Gu Shenwei saw the scene in front of his eyes, and he clearly saw that the head of the old Khan King was held on a copper plate, and the corpse was casually stuffed into the quilt.

"It's weird. ”

"What's so strange?" the Grand Lieutenant seemed to recognize the Dragon King as the one in the know, and asked step by step.

"It's strange that a killer who carefully arranged the positions of five maids and wanted to frame them on them, but took their heads, leaving the most obvious loopholes. ”

"Well, there's something even stranger, someone reported to me that the Dragon King had stolen into the palace that night, I wonder if it's true?"

The Grand Captain's questioning made everyone look at the Dragon King, and the King stopped talking, and his face turned a little red.

Fang Wenye's heart was pounding, and he didn't know how the Dragon King would answer.

"Yes, I went into the palace that night. ”

The dragon king admitted this, and the Grand Lieutenant was silent, and all the people present at the meeting were either not concerned with themselves, or glared angrily, or were suspicious, and they all felt that today's gathering might be blood-spattered on the spot, and their guards were all vigilant, ready to savior the Lord in a critical moment.

King Zuo Yue felt that the timing would not be wrong this time, so he jumped up and pointed at the Dragon King and said loudly: "I knew that it was you, a little king of the Western Regions, who came to the Dragon Court and did not leave, and must have a ghost in his heart, so I said that what qualifications do you have to participate in today's party, it turns out that the Grand Captain is also suspicious of you." ”

The Saint King looked at his nephew with disdain, now that the most powerful princes were dead, leaving him to stand out from the crowd and look down on everyone, "My stupid nephew, don't be suspicious, you and your guards can't beat a finger of the Dragon King." ”

"Let's go up together and avenge the old Khan!"

King Zuo's guards had no choice but to step forward and support his master's decision, but he was pleased to see that none of the princes responded.

King Zuo Yu blushed, turned his head and glared at his staff officer fiercely, "Of course, what the captain here says today, I listen to him." ”

King Shengyue crossed his hands on his belly and looked at his uncle, who was one or two years younger than him, "With 100,000 close servants, Grand Captain, now your words have the same weight as the old Khan King, let's say, do you think the Dragon King is a murderer?"

"No, he's not. ”

"Why?" asked King Zo in surprise, beginning to wonder if everyone had joined forces to play tricks on themselves.

"Because so far, he hasn't gained anything. ”

Gu Shenwei really didn't get much benefit, the old Khan King died a little too early, his alliance with the Xiao Yan clan was not optimistic at all, in the eyes of the Beiting nobles, it was more like a random refuge when there was no way out, and even the Xiao Yan clan himself had to take refuge in King Yao to barely maintain his position.

"King Yao and the Dragon King are in the same group, they are ......" King Zuo frowned, because the old King Yao was an ally of King Kuayu, and King Kua Yue was said to have been assassinated by the Dragon King, and the relationship between them was more chaotic than he imagined.

Said Yao King Tosai snorted, he would not speak for the Dragon King, but to ensure his own interests, "My father committed suicide without fear of sin, my army was beaten to pieces, what benefit did he get?"

The old king committed suicide because of fear, but it caused more gossip, and the king of the new Zuo said that he was most afraid of hearing this, so he got up, sat on his knees, and gasped, he was not afraid of Tosai, but he was afraid of the stern gaze of the captain.

The Grand Lieutenant recognized the Dragon King, and no one could let him change the topic, "But I want to know, what is the purpose of the Dragon King's entry into the palace that night?"

"The old Khan invited me to talk about something. "Gu Shen told the truth.

"Since he was invited to the palace, why did the Dragon King sneak around?" a prince interjected.

"The old Khan wants to see what I am capable of. ”

"Did he see it?" asked the Grand Lieutenant.

"No, I entered the palace, did not find the whereabouts of the old Khan, and then left. ”

Gu Shenwei didn't intend to tell the truth in public, that would only attract more suspicion.

The Grand Lieutenant lowered his head, as if he was about to pick up the wine bowl in front of him, and said casually: "After leaving the palace, you went to assassinate King Kuayu." ”

King Tosai overturned a plate of meat on the table by mistake, and hurriedly said, "The king was not killed by the dragon king......

He had to make this clear so that he would not be seen as a betrayal of his father and cousin by sheltering the Dragon King.

The Grand Lieutenant interrupted Torsai, not loud but powerful enough, "Let the Dragon King explain himself." ”

"King Kua said that he was killed by the people of Xiaoyuetang, I was at the scene, but I did not participate in the assassination, if I investigate carefully, I think I can still find witnesses. ”

"Xiaoyue Hall?"

"A killer organization with mostly women. ”

"Female killers are rare, and there are a few under the Dragon King, right?"

"Well, Xiaoyuetang was once an ally of the Dragon Army, and we broke up on the night of the Old Khan's assassination. ”

"Lies, all lies, where did such a coincidental thing come from?" Zuo said that the king always couldn't control his mouth.

The Grand Lieutenant was silent for a while, and then turned to the other participants, "There are indeed female killers in the Dragon Court, not one or two, but many, at least fifteen, and the assassination of several generals under the prince's account is related to them. ”

"A group of women?" This time it was not only King Zuo Yue, but the others were also surprised.

The Grand Lieutenant nodded, "I have definite evidence, I can't come up with it for the time being, and the Holy King may be willing to explain." ”

The king laughed loudly, picked up the knife of cutting meat, and stuck it on the table, "It turns out that after such a complicated circle, the majority of the lieutenants are actually suspicious of me, just because now I have the most cavalry and the most extensive territory? ”

"It has something to do with cavalry and territory, but not all, those female killers are hidden in your battalion, and after every assassination, you are a direct beneficiary. I've been wondering what kind of person could get close to the old Khan without any hindrance? ”

The guess of the Grand Lieutenant had deviated a little, but it was very close to the truth, and Gu Shenwei couldn't help but look at him with admiration.

The Grand Captain made the Dragon King tell Xiaoyue Hall in the way of forced questioning, obviously he could gain the trust of the kings more than telling the truth directly, and he was not unfamiliar with it at all after being isolated from the insidious and complicated court for many years.

The Holy King pulled out his knife and held it in his hand, "Everyone, haven't you seen it clearly? Get rid of me today, tomorrow will be King Yao, who will be the day after tomorrow? Whoever has the greatest power is whoever is, the Grand Lieutenant will destroy everyone and become the Khan King himself." ”

The Grand Lieutenant let out a voice like a lion's roar, "The traitors of the North Court, the traitors of the grassland, stop your sowing discord, within two days, hand over all the female killers, who killed the old Khan King, I will know in the first trial, you don't want to escape, let alone use the power of demons and monsters, the killers you sent, I will chop them in two and return them to you!"

The Grand Lieutenant suddenly became angry, and everyone was horrified, and the Holy King was stunned at first, and then threw the knife in his hand violently.

The only guard behind the captain stepped forward, took the knife, and gently placed it on the table, his body was neat, without a trace, obviously a first-class master.

Gu Shenwei heard Fang Wen is whisper: "The Grand Lieutenant is in danger." ”

He thinks the same thing as the military advisor.
