Chapter 123 The Embroidered Guards Reappear
After reading the letter, Chu Fuchi asked the same question as Qi Wushuang: "Where did you get these letters from?"
Ye Wuwei repeated the story again.
"We're going to the Yi Pavilion now."
After arriving at Yiguan, Ye Wuwei took Chu Fuchi and Qi Cheng directly to meet the thirteen Central Plains people.
Thirteen people were tied up and gagged.
Upon seeing this, Chu Fuchi exclaimed in surprise: "How come you are still alive?"
Ye Wuwei asked: "Do you know them?"
"They are former members of the Embroidered Uniform Guard, and this man is the former deputy commander of the Embroidered Uniform Guard."
"Embroidered Guards?"
"We'll talk about this later."
Chu Fuchi pulled the cloth out of the deputy commander's mouth and asked, "Who saved you?"
The deputy commander looked at Chu Fuchi hatefully: "Do you think I will tell you?"
"It doesn't matter if you don't tell me, I can roughly guess it.
But since you didn't die three years ago, why didn't you just hide away instead of coming to Qamdo to die?"
"I'm not like Pei Qing, that coward who became a coward after you guys caught him.
We have all received favors from His Majesty, and since we have received His Majesty's orders, we must complete them.
What's more, Your Majesty was killed by Qi Wushuang, so we must avenge Your Majesty.
For the past three years, I have been collecting evidence of Qi Wushuang's crimes in the north, and I finally found it.
I had originally planned to make it public in front of all the officials at his coronation ceremony today, but unfortunately I was wrong."
The Majesty mentioned by the deputy commander is the former emperor who was killed by Ye Wuwei.
"I don't believe you didn't make a backup plan?"
The deputy commander kept saying that it was too late, but Chu Fuchi and Ye Wuwei didn't believe it.
Chu Fuchi looked at the other people in the room:
"Are any of you willing to confess?
If anyone is willing to confess, I will spare their life, otherwise today will be the day you die."
The deputy commander sneered:
"Don't waste your energy. We are all people who have received favors from His Majesty and will not betray His Majesty."
Chu Fuchi ignored the deputy commander's words and continued to ask:
"If anyone is willing to confess, please tell me. This is your last chance."
The deputy commander shouted, "Don't listen to him. He won't let us go even if we tell him to."
At the deputy commander's call, no one agreed to confess.
Chu Fuchi ordered Nie Youren: "Kill them all."
Chu Fuchi's expression at this time was nothing like his usual "charming smile", it was very cold.
Ye Wuwei thought:
Maybe this is the real Chu Fu Chi!
The usual smile is just an act to confuse others.
Nie Youren was about to carry out Chu Fuchi's order when Ye Wuwei suddenly spoke:
"Don't kill them in the room. People will live in this room later. Drag them all to the woods in the backyard and kill them."
After saying that, Ye Wuwei stood up and walked out, dragging someone with one hand.
Although Ye Wuwei didn't know the cause and effect, he was good at observation.
He noticed that when Chu Fuchi asked for the first time if anyone was willing to confess, surprise appeared in the eyes of two people.
But when the deputy commander said, "We will not let them go even if they confess," the light in their eyes dimmed again.
The two people Ye Wuwei is dragging in his hands are the two people whose eyes showed surprise just now.
Chu Fuchi and Nie Youren both knew that Ye Wuyi had many ideas. Since he took the initiative to drag two people away, he might have some plan in mind.
After the Imperial Guards brought a dozen Embroidered Uniform Guards to the woods in the backyard, they all looked at Chu Fuchi.
Chu Fuchi opened his mouth and ordered: "Kill."
As Chu Fuchi uttered the word "kill", the guards all raised their knives, and Ye Wuwei was no exception.
However, as the knife fell, everyone else died, but the two people Ye Wuwei dragged out were still alive.
Ye Wuwei looked at the two people and said, "I'll give you one last chance. Will you confess?"
The two men looked at their dead companions and nodded repeatedly.
Nie Youren said to the other guards, "Let's go guard the surrounding area."
After Nie Youren and the others dispersed, Ye Wuwei pulled the cloth out of one of them's mouth.
"Our patience is limited, so please don't tell lies or talk nonsense."
The man nodded repeatedly.
Ye Wuwei gestured to Chu Fuchi to ask.
"Are there any other living Embroidered Uniform Guards besides you thirteen?"
"Gone. Only the thirteen of us are alive."
"Who saved you three years ago?"
“They are the people of the Great Prince of the North.
After they rescued us, they killed thirteen slaves and put on the clothes of the Embroidered Uniform Guards, wearing the Embroidered Uniform Guards' waist badges to impersonate us."
"You've been in the North for the past three years?"
"We are hiding in the Northland, pretending to be citizens of the Northland, and secretly collecting evidence."
"Where did you get these letters?"
"We found out that Prince Qi had connections with the Third Prince of Beidi, and that the Embroidered Uniform Guards were killed by the Third Prince of Beidi, so we asked the First Prince of Beidi for help.
The evidence was given by the Northern Prince to the Deputy Commander."
"So, the Northern Prince might also have such a letter in his possession?"
"I don't know that."
Chu Fuchi thought for a moment and asked, "Do you have anything else to say?"
The man thought for a moment and said, "I've told you everything I know."
Ye Wuwei also pulled the cloth out of the other person's mouth:
"He told me what I said just now. If you can't tell me anything new, there's no point in keeping you here."
Another person quickly said, "Let me think about it."
After a while, another person said:
"I once heard the deputy commander say: 'He didn't believe the commander just accepted his fate like that, he had to ask for his own advice'.
Then about two months later, the deputy commander received a letter. His expression became noticeably happier, and he said, "I knew he wasn't that bad."
But I'm not sure if the person he's referring to as 'not that bad' is the commander."
Ye Wuwei asked calmly, "Anything else?"
The other person racked his brains and thought:
"I know he has just said it, there is nothing special about the rest."
"Then let me ask you: What makes you say that the former emperor was killed by His Majesty?"
“We actually have no evidence, but we just don’t believe that His Majesty would die of convulsions.
Furthermore, we know of a method for faking a death by convulsion.”
"what way?"
"Inserting a specially made silver needle into a person's Baihui acupoint can create the illusion of death from convulsions."
Although Ye Wuwei did not show any surprise on his face, he was a little surprised in his heart:
I didn’t expect that the Embroidered Uniform Guards had more skills!
Ye Wuwei suddenly asked, "How many letters does the deputy commander have?"
Another person blurted out: "Eight seals."
"how do you know?"
"When the eldest prince sent someone to deliver the letter to the deputy commander, the person mentioned the words 'eight letters'. I was standing by at the time and took notice."
"Do you know the contents of the letter?"
The other man hesitated this time.
Ye Wuwei didn't ask any more questions.
"You are very attentive and actually a very good spy. It's a pity..."
"Are we still going to die?"
"You can only blame yourself for following the wrong master!
Do you have any last wishes? I will try my best to fulfill them for you."
The man who had confessed before spat at Ye Wuyi and said, "Do you think we will still believe you?"
Another person sighed: "The winner is the king and the loser is the bandit" is the eternal way! He still thinks it is simple!
