"Then how can you save him?"
"In the next life! Do you want to talk about it?"
"Do not say!"
"Do you think there is nothing I can do?"
Li Xiao cracked the corner of his mouth and said with a light smile, "Now that I know you are Li Xiaogong's daughter, it will be much easier."
"What do you want to do?!"
Liu Ruohan's expression tightened, and he looked at Li Xiao vigilantly.
Li Xiao jokingly said, "Just because you don't want to say it doesn't mean your father won't say it."
"Your wish is very illusory, but your father's wish may not be certain."
After speaking, Li Xiao turned around and prepared to leave.
But before leaving, he turned around and said, "If you don't want your father to die in prison, then don't answer any questions from Dali Temple."
"Of course, you can also choose to expose me, just see if anyone believes you."
After finishing speaking, Li Xiao walked away in a huff.
Liu Ruohan collapsed to the ground, his eyes were empty and lifeless.
……
Li Xiao came to the living room of Dali Temple, Wei Zheng had been waiting for a long time.
"How is it, Your Highness?"
Although Wei Zheng had no expression on his face, there was a trace of expectation in his eyes.
"Wake up." Li Xiao replied.
"woke up?!"
Wei Zhengteng stood up abruptly, his eyes brightened: "Your Highness, you are doing a great job! Without further ado, I will go to interrogate her right away!"
"Wait a moment!"
Li Xiao shouted at Wei Zheng: "I have already interrogated her and obtained a very important piece of information."
"What information is it?"
Wei Zheng stared at Li Xiao.
"Lord Wei, I have a plan..." Li Xiao said slowly with thoughts in his eyes.
……
The prison cell of Tianzihao in Dali Temple.
All the prisoners here are felons of the imperial court.
Li Xiaogong finally came here after going through various prison cells.
As if to show respect for him, Lee Hyo-gong's cell is in the deepest part.
The largest and most fortified room.
"Snapped!"
"Snapped!"
"..."
In the dark and damp dungeon, the sound of the whip whipping the body was heard continuously, one after another.
"Didn't you eat? You're like a bitch, let's find someone else!"
Li Xiaogong's voice was full of contempt and mockery.
"Damn! Why is this old thing so rough and thick?"
"I'm exhausted!"
"I can't do it anymore, keep smoking, be careful not to kill me, call the doctor immediately if something happens."
"Okay, okay, let's go!"
The sound of two Dali Temple jailers talking came out.
At this time, in the corridor of the dungeon, Li Xiao walked slowly with a blank expression on his face.
Seeing this, the jailer who had just left the house immediately shouted solemnly: "This is the important site of Dali Temple, whoever comes here should show his identity!"
Zhao Yuntian raised his hand, and the token of Dali Temple appeared.
"You don't need it here, get out! Don't let anyone come near here!"
"Yes!"
When the two jailers saw the token, they immediately left with fists in their hands.
"Why, another interrogation?"
In the dark cell, came Li Xiaogong's disdainful voice.
Li Xiao came to the door of the cell, looked at Li Xiaogong who was covered in blood, and raised the corner of his mouth: "Old friend, do you still remember me?"
"Ok?"
Li Xiaogong noticed that the voice was wrong, and immediately raised his head.
When he saw Li Xiao, his eyes narrowed slightly, and he said in a deep voice, "You're not dead yet!"
"Sorry to disappoint you."
Li Xiao smiled.
"What are you doing here?!" Li Xiaogong stared at Li Xiao with an indifferent expression, "Come and see my joke?"
"Let me guess."
Li Xiao ignored Li Xiaogong, and slowly pushed the door in, just sitting on the cold stone, and said slowly: "For so long, you have been refusing to confess, do you think someone will come to rescue you?"
"In your opinion, as long as you keep silent, you still have value and you won't be killed. As long as you are alive, you have the hope of leaving."
"So what?"
Li Xiaogong said coldly: "Don't think that you have seen through everything, sooner or later you will end up like me."
After a pause, a cruel smile appeared on Li Xiaogong's face: "At that time, you will experience what it means to truly live than die!"
Li Xiao smiled faintly: "Then I want to say sorry to you."
"I'm leaving Kyoto soon, and you probably won't have a chance."
After a pause, Li Xiao continued: "By the way, I came here to tell you some news."
"what news?"
"You probably don't know yet. Just a few days ago, there were assassins in the outskirts of the capital who assassinated the King of Han and kidnapped the King of Wei. His Majesty was enraged by this and investigated the matter thoroughly."
"Hahahaha..." Li Xiaogong laughed wildly, "Thank you for bringing me such good news, my heart feels relieved immediately."
"It's not over yet!"
A playful smile appeared on the corner of Li Xiao's mouth, and he continued: "The assassin has been found, do you want to guess who it is?"
"who is it?"
"Liu Ruohan."
"That Dongying princess?"
Li Xiao remained expressionless.
"That's right." Li Xiao said casually, "What's interesting is that the person who controls everything behind this is actually the crown prince."
"What are you telling me about this?"
Li Xiaogong frowned slightly, staring at Li Xiao.
Li Xiao looked at Li Xiaogong calmly.
"Liu Ruohan was convicted of treason and will be executed tomorrow."
After the words fell, Li Xiao keenly noticed the momentary fluctuation of Li Xiaogong's aura.
After pondering for a moment, Li Xiaogong said indifferently: "So, what do you say these have to do with me?"
"It doesn't matter, I just said it casually when I was in a hurry."
While speaking, Li Xiao stood up and said, "Since I told you, I should go too."
"and many more!"
Li Xiaogong frowned and called Li Xiao to stop.
"Anything else?"
Li Xiao turned around.
"The Great Tang and Dongying are about to go to war, Liu Ruohan, as the princess of Dongying, is a very good bargaining chip, why should he be killed?" Li Xiaogong asked with a frown.
"You still care about Datang's state affairs?"
Li Xiao looked at Li Xiaogong in astonishment.
"I have half of the credit for this country, but I just don't want to see it destroyed in the hands of the Hunjun!"
Li Xiaogong looked at Li Xiao calmly.
"Really?" The corner of Li Xiao's mouth curled up, "Who told you that Datang and Dongying are about to go to war?"
Hearing this, Li Xiaogong's pupils shrank, his eyes were a little flustered, and he said hastily: "It is quite normal for Dongying to send people to assassinate the royal family, and a war should break out."
"That's not necessarily going to war right away."
With a smile on the corner of Li Xiao's mouth, he said casually: "But you used the word 'war is about to start'."
However, Li Xiaogong said disapprovingly: "What can a word represent?"
"What does it represent?" Li Xiao sneered, and suddenly asked, "Changsun Wuji told you, right?"
Chapter 256: Dispelling the confusion
what? !
Li Xiaogong's heart suddenly set off a shocking wave.
Li Xiao actually knew his secret!
Where did he find out about it?
But no matter how much Li Xiao's words had an impact on his heart, Li Xiaogong, relying on his good psychological quality, didn't show any abnormal changes.
At the same time, it was next to the cell where Li Xiao and Li Xiaogong had a conversation.
Wei Zheng also opened his mouth wide in surprise, his eyes bulging.
Immediately, his brows were gradually wrinkled, and thousands of thoughts were in his mind...
Li Xiaogong pondered for a long time, then calmed down his emotions, and said calmly: "You guessed right, Changsun Wuji is my accomplice in the court, if you want to convict him, I can help to testify."
"Tsk tsk!"
Li Xiao had a sarcasm on his face, and said: "I didn't expect that the famous Li Xiaogong would have misjudged someone."
"You probably don't know yet, Liu Ruohan was captured by Changsun Wuji himself, and he was the one who proposed to execute Liu Ruohan."
"What exactly do you want to say?" Li Xiaogong asked in a deep voice, frowning tightly.
"It's nothing."
Li Xiao said indifferently: "It's just a bit of a sigh. In order to help Changsun Wuji hide it, you have been tortured in prison, and life is worse than death."
"But someone crossed the river and demolished the bridge, and the backhand will kill your whole family."
"Is this still the all-powerful Li Xiaogong?"
"It's stupid to be used in such a way without knowing it!"
