Chapter 224 True and False Schemes
"If we delay any longer, General Jia will probably wake up!"
Seeing the two arguing, Yuwen Bo couldn't help but remind them that although this was an inconspicuous villa that was temporarily occupied, he didn't want to cause trouble.
Helan Qin still couldn't bear to be cruel to this elder brother. After all, they grew up together, even though he once wanted to kill him. "Take my elder brother away! Let's go back to Rong State together."
As he spoke, several palace guards forcibly subdued him. Helan Gai had no martial arts skills to begin with, and he felt insulted at the moment, so he was naturally restrained quickly.
However, he had never been reluctant to treat this third brother. Even if he was caught now, he had to bow his head. "You are not much better than me. What? You want to kill me?"
But he didn't expect Helan Qin to say, "I will take you back to Rong State, and what you do will naturally be decided by the family elders."
"Elder? Then you might as well kill me." Hearing the word "elder", Helan Gai screamed like crazy.
The reason why their Helan clan has been able to stand firm in the Rong Kingdom for so many years, in addition to their outstanding business acumen, is that they have a group of elders who are deeply respected by the Rong nobles and are in charge of the rear.
If they knew what they had done, the end would be imprisonment in the darkest underwater purgatory. It was said that for a thousand years there, snakes and rats were rampant, and there was no sunlight all year round.
"You'd better kill me, kill me..."
Seeing him struggling to break free like a wild beast with all his strength, he took out a poison dart from his boot and rushed straight towards Helan Qin, wanting to take advantage of the opportunity to fight to the death.
The poison dart flew past Helan Qin's ear with a swoosh. He bent over and did a roundhouse kick, kicking Helan Gai out of the door, splashing dust all over the ground. The taste of blood dripped from his mouth.
Helan Qin withdrew his foot, and when he saw the body that could no longer move, he couldn't help but feel a pang in his heart.
The six years of hatred disappeared in an instant, but he couldn't be happy at all.
“Pa pa pa!” Yuwen Bo’s applause could be heard from behind. He walked behind Helan Qin like a ghost and said in a low voice, “It’s better this way. He won’t have to suffer too much. If it were me, how could I let him off so easily!”
Helan Qin said disdainfully, "I am not you!", and with a wave of his hand, several strong guards carried Helan Gai's body out and put it into the coffin that had been prepared long ago.
"Hahaha!" Yuwen Bo walked up to Helan Qin with a hint of sarcasm, and said with a destructive momentum, "So what? Now, aren't we on the same path?"
"If it weren't for me, would Helan Gai have believed the ambush set up today so easily? Would he have been caught by you so easily?"
"If it weren't for me, would you have been able to easily get the letter that he had colluded with Jiang Zhiang to kill you? Would you have been able to return to Rong Country safely relying on that guy Tang Yuwei?"
Every word Yuwen Bo said was deeply engraved in Helan Qin's heart. It was not the anger of an accomplice, but the ridicule within a plan.
Yuwen Bo would never know that the moment he was tied up by Jiang Chi and forced to leave Jia Kuizhuo a few days ago was actually a play directed by him and Tang Yuwei.
In order to make Yuwen Bo believe that the two of them were really at odds, Jiang Chi and Jia Kuizhuo staged a scheme of coercion and inducement, asking Jia Kuizhuo to bring the army to pick up Princess Taole and her party and bring them back safely, and to guarantee that he would get evidence of Xuanyi's collusion with the Rong State, otherwise Jiang Chi would kill Helan Qin immediately.
Because the Helan family controlled most of the economic lifeline of the Rong Kingdom and was the future son-in-law of the Rong Kingdom, Jia Kuizhuo naturally pretended to accept the conditions.
When Jia Kuizhuo led his army to Sand City, Yuwen Bo sent his own secret guards from Qingshang Pavilion to rescue Helan Qin from Jiang Chi's custody and reached the current deal.
But Helan Qin had been hiding for so many years, how could Yuwen Bo easily control him? He was just good at pretending to be stupid, but he was not stupid. He sneered, "Jiang Zhiang is a county magistrate, how could he be so bold as to kill me?"
Yuwen Bo laughed dryly. He naturally knew that Helan Qin had known the truth for a long time, but so what? Helan Qin had no evidence to prove it. "Third Young Master!" He put one hand on Helan Qin's shoulder and tightened it slightly, saying, "If you lose something in one place, you can gain something in another!"
"Hahahaha!" Helan Qin forced a laugh and smiled at Yuwen Bo.
Pulling his thoughts back, he looked at Xue Qingqing, who was standing in front of the door and was frightened by Fang Cha's repeated assassinations, and turned his gaze to Yu Wenbo, "How are you going to deal with her?"
"Of course I will go back to Rong State with you." Yuwen Bo stood up and walked towards Xue Qingqing with murderous eyes. He came up to her and lifted up her frightened face. "If one person is missing suddenly, Jia Kuizhuo will be suspicious."
"Young Marquis...your concubine..." Xue Qingqing still hasn't figured out what just happened.
She was taken to the horse by Yuwen Bo with a dazed look in her eyes. When she felt the coolness of the soft sword at his waist, Xue Qingqing took a breath.
Yuwen Bo took the opportunity to grab her neck and whispered in her ear, "If you dare to say a word about what happened today, you will end up like Helan Gai."
Helan Qin brought Yangyang back to Jia Kuizhuo's team again and returned to their original position before they woke up, as if nothing had happened.
After putting her back on the table, Helan Qin, who was wearing the uniform of an officer, patted Yangyang on the shoulder and said jokingly, "Don't pretend! Get up quickly."
Yangyang looked up and realized that Helan Gai had been there all along, but she had not noticed him because he was wearing a soldier's uniform.
Moreover, he had always known that she was pretending to be unconscious, but when Yangyang looked back at Biluo and Xiaotao, he saw that they had just woken up from a coma. It must have been Helanqin's doing.
"What's going on?" Jia Kuizhuo covered his headache forehead. Seeing that all the officers and soldiers seemed to be drowsy and just woke up, he looked at Yangyang and asked, "Is the princess okay?"
Yangyang saw the smile on Helanqin's lips, so he replied, "General Jia, maybe everyone is not used to the local climate. Let's leave here as soon as possible!"
Although Jia Kuizhuo looked at Helan Qin and the postman who was still reading at the counter hesitantly, as if nothing had changed, he did not dare to delay too much and agreed, "Yes, Princess!" He shook his armor, "Everyone, get ready quickly and set off immediately."
Back in the carriage, Biluo, who still felt the unusual pain in her neck, couldn't help but ask, "What happened? I clearly didn't eat the noodles, why do I feel like I fell asleep?"
"Me too, and my neck hurts so badly," Xiao Tao also said.
"Maybe it's because everyone is too tired." Yangyang tried to smooth things over.
Thinking of the scene of being taken away just now, it was also in the information that Helan Qin had already mastered. However, he was just playing along with Helan Gai in order to make Helan Gai expose his crimes himself.
But why did he cooperate with Yuwenbo? Didn't the conversation between Yuwenbo and Helan Gai while he was unconscious clearly expose their cooperative relationship?
"Miss, are you okay?" Xiao Tao saw Yangyang in a daze, and her eyes were fixed on a soldier next to Jia Kuizhuo.
"It's okay!" Yangyang looked away, and an idea suddenly popped into his mind. "So that's how it is."
