He's been caught for the show.
Chapter 52
Chai Zhu choked on Yan Jie's sudden words and coughed so loudly.
To be honest, Chai Zhu very much suspected that this person thought the poison was too slow to take effect, and wanted to choke him to death.
I have to say that if it was the latter, this person really almost succeeded.
Although he almost died, Chai Zhu was still strong enough to save himself and failed to let the opponent's plot succeed.
He calmly wiped away the rice grains sprayed from his nasal cavity, and looked up at the person opposite, his expression was extraordinarily calm, but it might be because he was too shocked, showing a blank.
But obviously the scribe on the opposite side didn't think of the latter possibility. He even nodded secretly because of the other party's current performance, and brought up a little bit the impression that had been lowered by the violent reaction just now.
If Chai Zhu knew, he would probably shake his head wildly and refuse——
No!He didn't want this kind of inexplicable affirmation at all! !
But at this moment, Chai Zhu has no time to pay attention to these details. His mind is full of thoughts: from "What kind of nonsense is this person talking about?" ", and then to the humble "Is this person not drunk and still sober?"...
Chai Zhu came back from being stunned and carefully observed the other party's expression.
But desperately found that the person opposite was serious.
That is to say, unless the person opposite is drunk and talking nonsense, or his brain is scalded by hot water while taking a bath.
What he just said is true, or at least in the eyes of this person, it is true...
Most people don't joke about things like this.And this person's eyes are clear now, and he doesn't look stupid at all.
But which normal person would talk about "rebellion" and understate it so lightly? ! !
Chai Zhu:! ! !
Whether it was true or not, Chai Zhu still tried to struggle.
He contemplated it for a long time, but in the end he could only say dryly: "Brother, you are joking."
Being in the enemy's camp, Yan Jie didn't really want to waste his time entangled with this kid.
"You don't have to doubt my identity,"
He put his index finger and thumb on the table and tapped twice, then raised his hand and handed a jade tablet to Chai Zhu, "Give this to him, and he will understand."
Chai Zhu:? ? ?
……who?understand what?
The stuffed jade plate is made of jade and gold, even Chai Zhu, who claims to be well-informed, is not famous, but he is sure that if he sells it, he will sell it for a good price.
But after seeing what it was, Chai Zhu felt that it was as hot as a soldering iron, and he wished he could throw it out as far away as possible.
There is a word written on this sign.
—— Huo.
Chai Zhu: "..."
He really shouldn't have gone to the capital to find his father!If he hadn't gone to find his father, he wouldn't have met the bandits, if he hadn't met the bandits, he wouldn't have been rescued by Huo Yan, if he hadn't been rescued by Huo Yan, he wouldn't have...
Anyway, there will be no such series of bad things later.
Now he felt that he might as well die at the hands of bandits.
Is rebellion so easy to get involved?If one is not careful, the family will be ransacked and the family will be wiped out!The wealth of the Chai family is already enough for him to eat, drink and play for ten lifetimes, so he will get involved in such things when he is full? !
But now it is obviously not a question of whether he wants to or not.
This person has even investigated the identity of "Huo Yan", so it will be useless to pretend to be stupid now.
He didn't know how much patience the person opposite him had, so he could only grit his teeth and look over, and said in a low voice, "What the hell do you want to do?!"
If he really planned to use him as a threat to involve the Chai family in this kind of thing, Chai Zhu would be killed on the spot, and he would not be given the opportunity to drag the Chai family into the quagmire.
The pale and thin scribe on the opposite side glanced at him, but didn't answer his question, but said instead: "The way you sneak in is really good."
Chai Zhu:? ? ?
"Mix", come in?
——Brother Huo?
But as soon as his guess came out, he was denied by Yan Jie's next words, "As the head of the Chai family, this is indeed the best way."
Chai Zhu vaguely felt something was wrong.
This person is talking about him, saying that he "mixed in"?But he was obviously captured by Meng Wu...
No, it doesn't seem right.
Leaving Meng Wu's face torn apart, why didn't he act quickly to avoid future troubles? With such a large private prison and all kinds of people inside, he didn't think it was his adoptive brother who could make the noise.
After all, if the other party really had this ability, he would have left the Chai family a long time ago and set up his own family, so why should he stay with him and hate each other and laugh at each other hypocritically?
"They still want to use you as a threat to talk to that boy surnamed Meng."
Chai Zhu: "..."
Sure enough, these people were not his adoptive brother's subordinates.
He was arrested because he wanted to negotiate a deal with Meng Wu.
I see……
So what a fart? !
Meng Wu, is this crazy?It has something to do with treason!
Yan Jie didn't notice Chai Zhuna's distorted expression for a moment, his expression softened, and his tone of speech was not as condescending and judgmental as before, but softened.
He asked: "The child came in the name of King Jingning's son?"
Chai Zhu: Did Huo Yan pretend to be King Jingning's son?
No wonder this group of people are so respectful?
wrong! !
Pretending to be royalty?If it is discovered, it will be a serious crime of beheading! !
He immediately raised his head to look at the opposite side, but saw that the other side not only showed nothing unusual, but even nodded faintly with approval in his eyes.
Chai Zhu: "..."
Who the hell is this? !
Just when Chai Zhu doubted his life, the person opposite continued to speak, his tone was even gentler than just before, "It's his style to surprise and win by taking risks."
He paused here, his eyes fell on Chai Zhu, and he asked slowly, "What's his name, that child?"
Obviously, this person didn't care about those earth-shattering words just now, but it was this question that he asked cautiously.
Chai Zhu was silent for a moment, not sure whether to answer or not.
But thinking about it, this person even knew the identity of Huo Yan's most important "Son of Huo Xiang".
And although this person is really strange, talking about the great crimes of "rebellion" and "pretending to be the royal family" is an understatement, but Chai Zhu has never felt any malice from him, it should be said that he is too friendly .
But Chai Zhu dared to assert that this person was by no means such an easy-going temperament in ordinary times, and it should be said that his difficulty was first reflected in the prison cell.
Chai Zhu finally gave the answer, "Yan, Huo Yan."
"Word?"
The man didn't know what to think of, and his expression was dull for a moment.
He paused, his voice low, "Speakers, the curse of tongue."
Chai Zhu: ... Huh?
Is this how normal people should react when they hear someone's name?Forget about even courtesy compliments, he is... swearing, right?Or the very straightforward one?
Could it be that he guessed wrong, this person has a grudge against the Huo family?
At the moment when Chai Zhu was silent, Yan Jie's face became more and more gloomy.
His voice was cold, like a poisonous snake spewing out letters, "Words should be words.... A lot of words can melt gold, and a pile of gold can be destroyed... Who can tell the difference between right and wrong, black and white?! Ha..."
The hanging hair covered half of his face, and under the flickering light and shadow, the face was so thin that the bones protruded, revealing something ferocious like a ghost.
Chai Zhu: "...?"
He endured it, but he still couldn't hold back, and interrupted: "Generally speaking, people who name 'yan' think more about 'good words', 'good words', and 'approving words'? What the sages call 'a gentleman is slow in words but quick in deeds'."
The curse of tongue?
Which father and mother named their children, would it have that kind of ominous meaning?
The person opposite seemed to be taken aback, he pulled the corner of his mouth upwards, and said softly, "Really?"
But I don't know whether to believe it or not.
But Chai Zhu guessed that he didn't believe it. After all, the common problem of such smart people is "not listening to others".Thinking about it this way, brother Huo who doesn't have this problem is simply one of the clean streams.
Yan Jie was a little dazed——
"Gentlemen are silent in speech and quick in action"?
From this point of view, there is probably no gentleman in this world who is more distinguished than that man.
The road is also the trace of walking.
And he named his child "Yan", did he not want this child to follow in his footsteps?
……
If so, he will be watching over the child.
He thought so, but hesitated.
Perhaps, there is no need for him to do anything extra...
That man's flesh and blood, and his spine as a beam to support the prosperity of Ankang, no longer needs a second "gentleman" who will go all out for it.
Those trances are only a moment's work.Blinking again, he has returned to his original expression.
He glanced at Chai Zhu, and said lightly: "Your ideas are good, but you are really reckless."
Chai Zhu's mind was still on the topic of the name just now, and he hadn't recovered from it for a while, and couldn't help but "Huh?" when he heard the words.
Yan Jie thought that he was dissatisfied with his evaluation.
He frowned, and although he wasn't too impatient to explain, he finally opened his mouth and said briefly, "You pushed that Meng too hard."
Chai Zhu:? ? ?
He forced Meng Wu?ha?What are you kidding?
Over the years, the one who wanted to mess with him was obviously his adoptive brother.
If he hadn't backed down too much, his elder brother wouldn't be so courageous that he would dare to pay for murder.
Oh, it's not "buying murder to kill", it's that the cooperation has not been negotiated, and he is taken as a hostage.
Chai Zhu felt that he really beeped the dog.
It was obvious that Meng Wu was the one who tried to hide from Hu, and even dared to get involved in the matter of treason, but in the end he was the one to suffer.
Chai Zhu's questioning expression was too obvious, which made Yan Jie frowned unhappily.
But after all, considering that this is the child's friend, he suppressed his temper and explained: "You pretended to look for Meng Wu and designed to be arrested on the way to find him. The suspicion in front of Xiangjin will save your life, but if there are too many traces left, it will be difficult for him to get rid of the suspicion. Then it doesn't matter if you live or die."
Chai Zhu: "..."
Reasonable and reasonable.
He really almost believed it!
But he really is!It was caught by this group of people! !
Instead, what "design" was caught.
He couldn't bear to think about it so much that he took the initiative to send himself in to eat in prison!A little bit, really just a little bit, he really starved himself to death! ! !
Chai Zhuzheng was thinking about this, but he saw the person across the street cast a glance at him, and said, "You acted on your own behind his back, didn't you?"
Chai Zhu: "How do you know..."
There was a pause when he blurted out, although he did come out behind Huo Yan's back, but Chai Zhu felt that... what the two of them were talking about was completely different.
He thinks it's better to explain the misunderstanding first, and then talk about these details.
But before Chai Zhu organized his speech, he heard a sneer from the other side.
He raised his chin, obviously not too much higher, but he used the posture of tilting his head to create a look of disdain. It's you who... can figure it out."
Chai Zhu:? ? ?
!!!
What is the word that follows "such"?
Did you scold him? !This person must have called him "stupid" in his heart just now, right? !
Before half a cup of tea, the man praised this as a "good idea", but when he heard that he did it himself, he turned his face in an instant.
——It is said that Huo Yan is "surprised and won by danger", but when it is his turn, he becomes "reckless and reckless, regardless of the beginning and the end".
Chai Zhu: "..."
He stared at the person in front of him, his expression suddenly became menacing.
——Obviously before this, this person didn't even know the name of "Huo Yan", right?
To be honest, Chai Zhu very much suspected that this person thought the poison was too slow to take effect, and wanted to choke him to death.
I have to say that if it was the latter, this person really almost succeeded.
Although he almost died, Chai Zhu was still strong enough to save himself and failed to let the opponent's plot succeed.
