Chapter 96 The Concubine's Surprise

"Your Majesty, please forgive me. Perhaps they were too tired from hunting these past two days and that's why they were a little careless. I will definitely punish them severely when I return."

"Never mind. You are the one who will suffer for your dereliction of duty this time. Consider this your punishment. I will take these assassins away."

The Duke of Zhenguo seemed to have not expected that the emperor would let it go so easily this time. He looked up in surprise, only to find that the emperor had already left.

Ling Xuan imitated An Yi and removed his chin to pick out the poison sac but found nothing. Confused, he followed Leng Qingyi with a group of five people.

After arriving at Leng Qingyi's tent, several assassins knelt down and cried, mumbling something inaudible.

"Push their chin back."

"Yes."

As soon as their chins were pressed down, the five people immediately begged for mercy.

"Your Majesty, please spare us. We didn't know you were here."

"Your Majesty, please spare us. We didn't mean to hurt you."

"Someone gave us 100 taels of silver each and told us to find the person living in the largest tent in the forest and kill him."

"Your Majesty, we didn't kill anyone, but we injured that gentleman's arm. Could you please let us go?"

"If it really doesn't work, Your Majesty, can you poke both of our arms to apologize to that gentleman?"

"Yes, Your Majesty, stab us."

"The emperor stabbed us to apologize to that gentleman."

The chattering made me feel lonely and my head buzzed.

"Stop, I ask you questions."

"Okay, Your Majesty."

"Can you let us go after we finish answering, Your Majesty?"

"Your Majesty, this is the first time we have done this. We will never dare to do it again, Your Majesty."

"Yes, Your Majesty, we will never dare to do that again."

Leng Qing held his forehead and rubbed his eyebrows. These people didn't look very smart.

It was because she felt that these people were different that she did not immediately hand them over to An San and brought them over for interrogation herself.

I didn't expect that he is not just not very smart, isn't he simply mentally retarded?

"Ling Xuan, remove four chins and keep one."

"Yes."

Leng Qingyi looked at the person whose jaw had not been removed and asked, "Who are you, where do you live, and what do you do? Tell me the truth."

The assassin looked at his four speechless brothers in panic and stammered.

"Your Majesty, my brothers and I came here to escape famine. Our home is in Xiaohuai Village, Anyuan County. Before we arrived, the five of us worked as laborers."

"flee from famine?"

"Yes, it is."

"Drag him out and chop him up."

"Don't...don't, Your Majesty. I'm telling you...to be honest, I'm...I'm..."

"Drag it out."

"Yes."

Ling Xuan stepped forward to drag the person out and just happened to run into Ji Yechen who was coming over.

"Ling Xuan, what's going on?"

"Just in time, you drag this man out and kill him."

"I won't go. This is your job, not mine."

Just as Ling Xuan was about to speak again, Ji Yechen slipped into the tent like a loach.

"I see you, Your Majesty."

Leng Qingyi pinched his eyebrows and looked up at Ji Yechen.

"You came just in time to fix his jaw."

Ji Yechen's eyes lit up instantly. He had seen An Yi's smooth movements several times and had wanted to try it for a long time. Today was finally his turn.

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Ji Yechen pinched the man's chin and pushed it upwards with a click. I don't know whether it worked or not, but the man screamed loudly.

Leng Qingyi turned his head to the side helplessly. Ji Yechen scratched his head awkwardly and reached out to touch the man's jawbone.

"The Emperor has installed it."

Leng Qing turned his head and looked at the assassin who was screaming.

"You said, lie and you will die."

"I say, I say, these guys are bandits from the hill next door... We came here because someone paid us 500 taels to kill someone."

"Which hill? How many bandits are there? Where is their exact location?"

"It's on the mountain behind us, on the mountainside. There are probably more than a hundred people there."

"Who gave you the money?"

"do not know."

"Ok?"

"I really don't know, Your Majesty. When that man came to us, he was wearing all black clothes and even his face was covered."

"Your face is covered?"

"Yes, yes, Your Majesty, I promise I didn't tell a single lie."

"An Yi, take a look and see if this is the case."

Leng Qing raised his hand and pointed at An Yi who suddenly appeared.

The bandit was startled and turned to look carefully.

"Yes, yes, that's what the Emperor wore. He came to see us late at night. That's all I know."

"Do you three have anything else to add?"

Two of the three shook their heads, and only one nodded.

Leng Qing raised his chin towards Ji Yechen.

Ji Yechen understood and installed the man's chin.

"explain."

"Your Majesty, that person is not as tall as this elder brother. When he walked, I noticed that his shoes were a little draggy, and his footprints were deep and shallow. I think that person is most likely a woman."

"Oh? Do you have any evidence?"

"I found a handkerchief after she left."

"where?"

"It's on the common people."

"Ji Yechen untied him."

"Yes."

As soon as the man was released, he immediately rushed towards Leng Qingyi, shouting, "Go to hell, you dog emperor."

It was completely useless for Leng Qing to make a move. An Yi flashed over quickly and killed him with one blow.

"It's useless, just drag them out and kill them. Ji Yechen, go back and gather a few elite teams to investigate the place they mentioned. If they are bandits, destroy them immediately. If there is any fraud, return and notify me immediately."

"Yes, I will go back now."

Leng Qingyi was speechless about what happened tonight. Everyone wanted her dead, even the bandits were involved.

Who is she looking down on? Even professional killers can't do anything to her, yet she actually goes to find bandits.

Two days later, news came from Ji Yechen that there was a bandit's nest on the hillside next door, but there were not more than a hundred people as they said.

The entire bandit camp had a total of five to six hundred people, including men, women, old and young. Fortunately, he brought so many people with him that he didn't need to borrow troops from the local county government and directly wiped out the whole group of bandits.

A lot of money and grain were seized and handed over to the Ministry of Revenue.

It would be impossible for such a large group of bandits to exist near the capital without the tacit approval of those above them.

So Ji Yechen stayed there to investigate secretly, and found that the local county government was really rampant and not afraid of being discovered at all. Not only did officials collude with bandits, but they also embezzled and accepted bribes.

In response to this, Leng Qingyi sent someone to tell the Jingzhao Yin to investigate the matter thoroughly. If he didn't get to the bottom of it, he would have no need to care for his head.

In the next few days, Leng Qingyi continued to hunt and catch assassins.

On the day he returned, Leng Qingyi wrote a prescription for An Yi and asked him to get the medicine and add it to the water used in the base.

She had not forgotten that a very vicious person had poisoned the stream.

After returning to the base, Yan Ruju went to Leng Qingyi's tent immediately and couldn't wait even a moment.

Seeing that he was in a hurry, Leng Qing summoned him into the tent.

But she didn't expect Yan Ruju to give her such a big surprise. She knew that as long as a woman wanted to, there was nothing she couldn't do.
