Chapter 96 The Assassin is Caught

That day, Ye Jinxiu was handling some affairs when Lin Mu walked in hurriedly.

"Your subordinate, I pay my respects to your Majesty."

"Flat body."

"Your Majesty, I have captured an assassin."

"The assassin has been caught."

"Yes."

"Come with me to the Ministry of Justice."

"Do we need to inform the Emperor of Chu about this matter?"

"Don't tell him yet. Wait until this matter is thoroughly investigated."

Ye Jinxiu and Lin Mu came to the Ministry of Justice and looked at the assassin who was covered with wounds.

Ye Jinxiu looked at the man in front of him with a furious look, his eyes revealing endless majesty. He shouted, "You bold assassin, you dared to assassinate the Queen of Chu. You are guilty of a heinous crime!"

The assassin trembled, knelt on his knees, and dared not look up. He did not know that the person he assassinated was the Queen of Chu. If he knew it was the Queen of Chu, he would definitely not participate in this matter.

"Why, you still don't want to tell us who is behind this?"

The man lowered his head and remained silent. This made Ye Jinxiu even more angry, but as a monarch, Ye Jinxiu had many ways to make the man speak. He wanted to see how long the man in front of him could hold on.

"Come here, take this assassin to the prison and torture him severely. Make sure he reveals the mastermind behind this!"

The guards responded and dragged the assassin away.

In the prison, the assassin was tied to the rack and subjected to all kinds of torture. The whips fell on his body like a storm, and each whip brought piercing pain, and blood stained his prison uniform. However, the assassin gritted his teeth and still kept the secret.

Ye Jinxiu learned that the assassin still refused to speak, so he decided to interrogate him personally. He stepped into the gloomy prison, his footsteps echoing in the silence. Ye Jinxiu sat in the upper seat of the interrogation room, staring at the assassin opposite him with a cold gaze.

"If you don't confess, I will let you experience even more cruel punishment."

Ye Jinxiu's voice was like ice, chilling.

The assassin's body was broken, but his eyes were still firm. He knew that if he revealed the mastermind behind the incident, he would lose his life.

"I am just an assassin following orders. I really don't know who is the mastermind behind this."

Ye Jinxiu slammed the table so hard that the torture instruments began to buzz.

"What a stubborn assassin! Since you refuse to speak, I will grant your wish."

He turned to the guards and ordered: "Break his limbs and throw him into the wilderness, letting him die slowly in pain."

The guards took the order and mercilessly tortured the assassin. The sound of broken bones and the assassin's screams intertwined, making people shudder. The assassin eventually passed out, like a broken doll.

Ye Jinxiu watched all this with dignity. He didn't believe that a person could not reveal the mastermind behind the scenes after being tortured so cruelly.

"I will never tolerate anyone who threatens her safety. No matter who you are, you will be severely punished!"

Ye Jinxiu's voice echoed in the prison, as if it was the final warning to the man in front of him.

"You don't say it doesn't matter. Don't you think about yourself or your family?"

"Sir, what are you going to do to my family?"

"They did nothing wrong. They did nothing wrong."

"What mistake did the Queen of Chu make that made you kill her?"

"Your Majesty, if I tell you who is behind this, can you let my family go?"

"You are negotiating terms with me."

"Your Majesty, I only have one life. If I hadn't been forced by life, I wouldn't have done such a life-threatening thing. I just hope Your Majesty can let my family go."

"If you want me to let your family go, just tell me the truth and don't try to lie to me, okay?"

"Little understands."

"Go ahead."

"There are three of us."

"What about the other two?"

"The other two have already fled the Southland."

"Why didn't you run away?"

"I was worried about my family, so I wanted to take them away from the Southland, but before I could leave, you found me."

"Do you know the whereabouts of the other two people?"

"They left the city, probably heading towards the Yun Kingdom."

"forest."

"Your Majesty."

"Take people to Yun Country and make sure to capture the remaining two assassins."

"As ordered."

"You go on."

"The three of us received a mission to assassinate the Queen of Chu. We didn't know that the assassin was the Queen of Chu. If we had known, we would definitely not have done it."

"Now I just want to know, who asked you to do it?"

"I dare not say."

"You dare to do it but not to say it. Is this all the courage you have?"

"Hurry up and tell me, I don't have the patience to stay here with you."

"Yes, Your Majesty's Queen."

"What did you say?"

"I dare not lie to you, my Lord. Everything I say is true."

Ye Jinxiu had thought of many possible outcomes, but never imagined this would be the outcome. Why did Qingmu do this and kill Wuyou?

The consequences of this incident are already very serious.

"Someone, drag him away."

"Your Majesty, I have explained everything to you. Please spare my life."

"You want me to spare your life after such a serious matter as assassinating the Queen of Chu? You are wishful thinking."

Finally, Ye Jinxiu ordered his men to throw the assassin onto the wasteland outside the city like a dead object, leaving him to breathe his last in the wind and sun.
