Chapter 169: Host, have you ever thought that your father would collaborate with the enemy?
[There are four spies here, two from Nanzhao, one from Chishui, and one from Tujue. Host, do you see the maid next to Princess Zheng? She's a spy from Chishui.]
Princess Zheng knew that King Annan would definitely deal with the concubine who had committed adultery after he returned, and she didn't want to watch, so she didn't follow him back.
Jiang Yueyang looked over in the direction of the sound, and the others also glanced quickly in the direction of Princess Zheng without noticing.
The maid had an ordinary appearance and was expressionless at the moment. She stared straight ahead at the thirty-three people in front of her who were suspected.
Everyone couldn't help but wonder, her identity was exposed, why was she still so calm?
Could it be that... she can't hear what Master Xiao Jiang is thinking?
This must be the case, otherwise they would have taken the hostages and escaped by now.
In other words, no one other than those from Da Xia can hear Lord Xiao Jiang's thoughts!
This is good!
This way, no matter how many spies come, they can only wait to be slaughtered!
Hearing this, Xie Xu winked at Qin Shi, who was closest to him.
Qin Shi understood what Emperor Yuan meant and bowed, saying, "Your Majesty, I believe that until the true spy is found, everyone present is a suspect, including me."
"I second the motion." The Left Vice Minister of the Ministry of Justice also came out to support them, "Your Majesty, I think the bloodstains on the fence are too deliberate.
Someone assigned as a spy shouldn't be so careless. This was most likely intentional."
"Then examine everyone carefully!"
"promise!"
After they responded, they began to check on those who were not injured one by one.
Jiang Yueyang praised: "I didn't expect this Left Vice Minister of the Ministry of Justice to be quite clever."
Upon hearing this, the Left Vice Minister of the Ministry of Justice curled his lips in shame.
Seeing that Qin Shi and the others quickly asked about Princess Zheng's maid, she couldn't help but feel curious.
"Oh, Xiaogua, how did the Chishui spies get into a place like the palace? And even get close to Princess Zheng?" She paused and frowned. "Could Princess Zheng be... collaborating with the enemy?"
Princess Zheng suddenly opened her eyes wide. Seeing that everyone was looking at her strangely, she wanted to explain right away that she had not colluded with the enemy.
The system answered one by one: [She was selling herself on the street to bury her father. Princess Zheng saw her and kindly brought her back to the palace. Princess Zheng did not collude with the enemy. She did not know that the maid was a spy for Chishui.]
Princess Zheng immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
[Who are the other three spies? ]
[Host, do you still remember the maid who led you on the first day? She was a Turkic spy.]
Hearing this, Jiang Yueyang looked at the palace maid who led her in fear. [She approached me, is she trying to kill me?]
Because the system did not clearly indicate who the palace maid was, Emperor Yuan, Xie Xu and others followed Jiang Yueyang's line of sight to look for her without leaving any trace.
The Empress immediately frowned, the palace maids and eunuchs who came with her this time were all from Ning'an Palace!
Those people actually extended their hands to Ning'an Palace!
System: [She approached the host to learn why the host, a woman, was favored by the emperor.]
[Fuck! Shouldn't she go to His Majesty to learn more about this? I can't figure it out myself!]
[Do you think she doesn't want to? She can't get close to the emperor.]
Jiang Yueyang snorted angrily, "You're just picking on the weak! I was actually praising her in my heart, take it back!"
Emperor Yuan: “…”
Everyone: "..."
The system continued: [The remaining two Nanzhao spies are the eldest daughter of Mr. Zhang, the Deputy Minister of the Ministry of Revenue, and her personal maid.]
Hearing this, the Ministry of Revenue member in the crowd suddenly felt dizzy, swayed all over, and almost fainted.
At this moment, he could clearly see himself and his family walking up to the guillotine.
Jiang Yueyang was shocked. [What? My father's subordinates? If this happens, my father won't be implicated, right?]
[Host, have you ever thought that your father would collaborate with the enemy? ]
Minister Jiang: My head is already on the verge of collapse, and you still want to push it down? What good will it do you if I die?
Everyone present changed their expressions. If Minister Jiang really was collaborating with the enemy, it would be a disaster.
First of all, it is questionable whether Lord Xiao Jiang’s voice was intentional.
Secondly, Minister Jiang has a father-in-law who is as rich as a country.
Emperor Yuan's expression remained unchanged. He didn't think Jiang Chengrui would collaborate with the enemy.
He did have some confidence in this, after all, Jiang Chengrui was someone he and the old man Wen Zhiyuan had been observing for a long time.
Besides, whether or not we are collaborating with the enemy will be clear soon.
Jiang Yueyang answered without hesitation: [You're asking nonsense, aren't you? My father isn't stupid. What good would it do him to collaborate with the enemy?]
[You can sit on the throne of the supreme ruler! ]
Minister Jiang gritted his teeth secretly and said, "Little melon, can you shut up?"
"Little melon, have you eaten too much garlic? My father doesn't have any military power. How can I hand over the throne to him?"
Hypothetically speaking, if my father had really collaborated with the enemy, I bet he would be the first to die during the mutiny.
Minister Jiang: “…”
Everyone couldn't help but curl their lips. Little Lord Jiang was definitely Minister Jiang's biological son.
That being said, Jiang Yueyang hesitated for a moment and couldn't help but ask: [Did my father collaborate with the enemy?]
"No, your father is loyal to Daxia, and he doesn't have such great ambitions. His greatest wish right now is to have another daughter with your mother."
Hearing this, Jiang Yueyang felt relieved but also a little unhappy.
"I just can't understand. Why is my father so dissatisfied with me as his daughter? Why does he insist on having another child?"
The system smiled and said nothing.
Minister Jiang, who had just returned from a trip to the underworld, wiped the cold sweat from his forehead with his hand and pulled the corners of his mouth weakly.
I have only one complaint about you: your mind is too active!
My daughter... Daddy has only one request, please don't send our whole family to the guillotine again, okay?
Seeing that Xie Xu was about to ask about the eldest daughter of the Ministry of Revenue, Jiang Yueyang spoke again in confusion: "Little melon, you said that Mr. Zhang's eldest daughter and her maid were spies from the Nanzhao Kingdom. When were they instigated to rebel?"
Hearing this, everyone suddenly thought of something wrong.
If only the people of Daxia can hear Lord Xiaojiang's voice, then Lord Zhang's eldest daughter should also be able to hear it.
But the way they looked, it was obvious that they couldn't hear!
The system chuckled, "They weren't instigated to rebel. They were spies for the Nanzhao Kingdom from the beginning."
"If you say that, I will..." Jiang Yueyang paused, then said in disbelief, "Could it be that they are actually from Nanzhao, just like General Cao before?"
【Congratulations to the host for answering correctly! 】
