Chapter 246: Looking at Ji Chilian’s Past
"I'm a master of mysticism and I'm proficient in physiognomy. I can tell that Liu Wu didn't kill anyone." Yi Qianhuan answered without thinking.
Ji Chilian was silent for a few seconds before she raised her head and looked at Yi Qianhuan: "Madam, this governor always likes to get to the bottom of things. If you don't tell me the truth today, this governor will end all cooperation with you."
Yi Qianhuan frowned, but regained his composure in just a moment: "Master Du, we have been cooperating for a win-win situation. You have indeed helped me a lot. But I don't need you. If you don't cooperate with me, I can also get what I want."
She said this without any blind confidence.
"Madam, you do have the ability to get what you want. I can't stop you, but I can impose on you some things you don't want." Ji Chilian smiled meaningfully, "If I don't know the truth, I will be in a bad mood. Once I am in a bad mood, I like to kill people. Madam, guess, if Helian Ziyu died, would the position of the national god fall directly to Yi Mobao?"
"You threatened me?" Yi Qianhuan laughed in anger. "Do you know, Lord Governor, that all those who threatened me before you have gone to hell without exception?"
"I am not threatening you, but I am trying to make the Crown Prince's wife understand the seriousness of the matter. This is a win-win situation for both of us. If you don't tell me the truth, it will affect my judgment."
"The Lord Governor wants me to be honest with him. But up to now, I have known the Lord Governor for such a long time, and I didn't know the truth until the truth came out. Before that, the Lord Governor had tested me many times." Yi Qianhuan would not be intimidated by Ji Chilian, "This is my secret. If the Lord Governor wants to know my secret, you must show your sincerity."
Ji Chilian fell silent again.
Faced with such a tough Ji Chilian, Yi Qianhuan lost interest.
She admitted that Ji Chilian was a good partner, but she also had her principles and was unwilling to be kept in the dark and used as a tool.
Turning around and wanting to leave, Yi Qianhuan was about to step out of the interrogation room when Ji Chilian's voice sounded behind her.
"The person who rescued Helian Ziyu last time was the Dragon Shadow Guard employed by the royal family."
Yi Qianhuan's eyes trembled slightly, and he stopped and turned to look at Ji Chilian: "You mean, the emperor already knows that the Northern Fusi wants to kill Helian Ziyu?"
Naturally, she had also heard about how powerful the Dragon Shadow Guards were, who could only be mobilized by the royal family.
If there is any force in the capital that can compete with the Jinyiwei, it is only the Longyingwei controlled by the royal family.
As soon as he finished speaking, Yi Qianhuan immediately felt something was wrong: "If the emperor sent the Dragon Shadow Guard to rescue Helian Ziyu, it would be equivalent to the emperor tacitly agreeing that Helian Ziyu would become the national god. The last time I proposed that Mo Bao withdraw from this matter, the emperor should not have rejected my request."
"Not only that, if the emperor knew that the Jinyiwei attacked the national god, I would be implicated. And all these subsequent events did not happen, which is enough to prove that it was not the emperor who sent the Longyingwei that day, but other members of the royal family who rescued Helian Ziyu, and this person is very likely to have reached some kind of consensus with Helian Ziyu."
Ji Chilian looked at Yi Qianhuan, "Madam Crown Prince, do you think that if someone in the royal family manipulates the election of the national god, once Yi Mobao becomes a greater threat to Helian Ziyu's position, will this person kill Yi Mobao?"
"Who is this person? As a member of the royal family, he actually dared to participate in the selection of the national god privately. What is his intention?!" When Yi Qianhuan thought that someone might threaten Yi Mobao's safety, it was as if a fire was ignited in her heart, burning her to the point of losing her mind.
"There are many people who can mobilize the Dragon Shadow Guards. The first prince, the second prince, even the third prince and the regent, they all have the power. At present, this governor has not yet investigated the truth, but it is certain that the enemy is in the dark and we are in the light. The situation is extremely unfavorable to us. As things develop, Yi Mobao may be assassinated at any time."
After hearing this, Yi Qianhuan had guessed Ji Chilian's intention: "Master Du, I said I don't like being threatened. Are you threatening me with the safety of Mo Bao now?"
Even though she is very strong, her energy is limited.
The Dragon Shadow Guards are very difficult to deal with. Unless the Jinyi Guards are dispatched to protect the calligraphy works all day long, the safety of the calligraphy works can be ensured.
From this, it can be seen that Ji Chilian took the initiative to reveal the matter of the Dragon Shadow Guard not only to tell her this information, but also to threaten her to compromise by using the safety of Mo Bao!
Ji Chilian's lips curled up into a faint smile, and he returned to his usual calm demeanor: "Threats only exist between enemies. My people will go to protect Yi Mobao, and you and I will continue to cooperate. This is mutual assistance and cannot be considered a threat."
"Mr. Du is really eloquent. He can even turn black into white." Yi Qianhuan took a deep breath and suppressed the restlessness in his heart.
Although Yi Qianhuan knew that Ji Chilian did it on purpose, she had no choice but to compromise.
If Ji Chilian threatened her life today, she would fight this man to the death.
But Ji Chilian was concerned about the safety of the calligraphy, and she really didn't dare to take risks with the calligraphy.
"Okay, I will continue to cooperate with you. But I have a request." Yi Qianhuan raised his eyebrows and walked towards Ji Chilian.
Ji Chilian kept looking at Yi Qianhuan until Yi Qianhuan reached out his hand to him.
Ji Chilian paused in the movement of the Buddhist beads in his hand. He first looked at Yi Qianhuan's soft and white hands, and then looked up at her face.
"Give me your hand. Just let me hold your hand, and I will tell you how I saw through Liu Wu just now." Yi Qianhuan was full of confidence and felt that this deal was a good one for him.
As long as she could see Ji Chilian's past through the handshake, she would definitely be able to find some evidence against this man.
At that time, even if she told Ji Chilian about the spiritual pupil, she would not worry that this man would let the cat out of the bag.
Seeing Ji Chilian reaching out his hand towards him like a lamb delivered to the door, Yi Qianhuan grabbed his hand.
A golden light flashed quickly in the phoenix eyes, and Yi Qianhuan tried to see something about Ji Chilian.
However, she only saw a faint golden light.
Jin Guang completely blocked Ji Chilian's past memories, and she could not see these memories at all.
Having never encountered such a situation before, Yi Qianhuan frowned in confusion, but continued to explore without giving up.
She still didn't believe that she couldn't see anything.
Finally, she found a pink smoke in the golden light.
Unlike the golden light that blocked Yi Qianhuan from approaching, the peach-colored smoke emitted a sweet fragrance that enveloped Yi Qianhuan's entire body the moment she approached.
