Forcing me to keep vigil for your childhood sweetheart? Then I'll leave you.

Chapter 174 Interrogation Obstacles

"He's awake?"

Lin Yi was a little confused.

Although I fired randomly, there was a high probability that the bullets would ricochet and hit me, and there were also rocks blocking the way.

But judging from the wound, it's actually quite deep!

How is it possible to wake up in one day?

It's not even a day yet!

"Indeed, your Majesty intends to interrogate him immediately."

Bao Bu Tong said, nodding slightly, "However, His Majesty will ask you to be present before the interrogation."

Having said that, Lin Yi felt even more strange.

If it's an interrogation, Bao Bu Tong should be a professional...why do you have to do it yourself?

"Can't you get anything out of me?"

Lin Yi asked thoughtfully.

"He's injured, so he can't be tortured."

Bao Bu Tong sighed as he spoke, obviously hiding something.

"you……"

Lin Yi thought for a moment, then said something that shocked Bao Bu Tong, "Have you already tried it, and found nothing?"

Bao Bu Tong swallowed his saliva, Lin Yi guessed it all right!

In fact, the assassin had already woken up in the middle of the night yesterday.

He was summoned by Huangfu Qingling overnight and began to be interrogated.

Although the "assassin" was a little unconscious, he was able to speak.

Then Bao Bu Tong asked but there was no information until the morning.

Huangfu Qingling called Prince Qing and Yu Jin to jointly interrogate him.

Still no information at all.

The man fainted as soon as he was punished.

So, in desperation, they could only delay until morning.

These things were finally made clear thanks to Lin Yi's guesses and Bao Bu Tong's narration.

"Have you forgotten what I said about being soft and not hard?"

Lin Yi frowned and looked at Bao Bu Tong.

Logically speaking, he had already demonstrated to Bao Bu Tong how to conduct an interrogation.

Give the "prisoner" some benefits so that they feel they can survive, be saved, and even live a better life.

Then, 80% of people who prefer soft words to hard ones will make this choice.

"Lin Yi, this is not up to me."

Bao Bu Tong smiled bitterly, "Your Majesty is directing from the side."

Although Huangfu Qingling should know something about these things, she was already furious, so it was difficult for her to calm down and think.

So what Bao Bu Tong meant was that he was not sincere.

Perhaps Huangfu Qingling would not listen to anyone except Lin Yi.

"I understand. Thank you for your hard work."

Knowing the situation, Lin Yi nodded slightly and patted Bao Bu Tong on the shoulder. Then he changed his clothes and followed Bao Bu Tong to the palace.

After walking through the streets, they entered the palace without stopping.

Then Lin Yi came to a side room.

This is a place used to receive visitors from small countries of lower level.

Huangfu Qingling breathed a sigh of relief when she saw Lin Yi.

"Lin Yi, I've been interrogating that man all night!"

"No information at all!"

Although Huangfu Qingling sighed, there was still some anger on her face.

It was only because Lin Yi came that she calmed down a little.

"Your Majesty, what is this person's condition now?"

Lin Yi did not rush in, but asked about the situation.

Prince Qing and Yu Jin were also present.

"He's fainted. He was just put in a clamp."

Prince Qing said, "This is the most severe punishment we can impose."

"Has the wound opened?"

"Things should be alright?"

After Lin Yi's further questioning, he realized that they came out to have the imperial physician diagnose their pulses and check their conditions.

In fact, Lin Yi was a little angry, but in front of Huangfu Qingling, he didn't dare to "stab the emperor in the face".

"His pulse is stable, but if he's subjected to more severe torture... I'm afraid he won't be able to be saved."

Just then the imperial physician came out.

According to the imperial physician, the "assassin's" condition will be much more stable after they give him some medicine.

But I don’t know when I will wake up.

"Alright, all of you go down. Bao Bu Tong, keep an eye on that guy."

After saying that, Huangfu Qingling waved her hand slightly, and they sat down at the stone table in the yard.

"Lin Yi, I have tried everything I can."

"But he didn't say anything!"

Huangfu Qingling saw that Lin Yi's anger had actually subsided for the most part, but as soon as the assassin was mentioned, his anger was rekindled.

"Your Majesty, do you want to punish the criminal or find out the truth?"

Lin Yi spoke slowly, and only dared to speak after seeing that Huangfu Qingling had calmed down a little.

"Of course I know the truth!"

"But he didn't say anything, how would I know?"

Huangfu Qingling became anxious again.

"Your Majesty, please leave this matter to me first. Once he wakes up, I promise to complete it within half an hour."

Lin Yi said, promising.

"Half an hour?"

Huangfu Qingling frowned. He looked at Prince Qing and Yu Jin around him, and remembered that Bao Butong was also in the room.

She found it hard to believe that they couldn't get any answers out of this "all-star" lineup after spending the entire night there.

But just based on the two words "Lin Yi", she is worthy of trust.

"Your Majesty, it's been so long, you must be tired, just leave it to us. Have a good rest."

Lin Yi smiled as he spoke, and there was a hint of concern in his tone.

This kind of "warmth" that comes as a timely help has brought Huangfu Qingling's anger to the freezing point.

"Okay, I'll be waiting for your good news!"

Having said this, Huangfu Qingling slowly left.

After Huangfu Qingling left, Prince Qing and Yu Jin finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"Finally... I can relax a little."

"Lin Yi, let me talk. My little sister can be quite stubborn sometimes."

Prince Qing said this, revealing the source of Huangfu Qingling's anger.

In fact, it is a question of "royal face".

As a royal family, as the number one family in the world, if anyone can enter and exit the palace as they please, it would be a complete loss of face!

"I understand that, too."

Lin Yi nodded slightly as he spoke, "Thank you both for your hard work."

Although he did not think this kind of face was important, the emperor always had his own considerations.

After hearing these words of comfort, Prince Qing and Yu Jin nodded and breathed a sigh of relief.

"However, this assassin still has a hard mouth."

"Nothing."

Prince Qing told Lin Yi some details of the previous interrogation.

Although the assassin was somewhat confused, he insisted on keeping his mouth shut and not saying anything.

It is obvious that he has received professional training.

"So, we should be worried about you."

Yu Jin looked up at Lin Yi and said, "You said it would only take half an hour. If you break your promise, it would be a serious crime of deceiving the emperor."

Although he knew that Huangfu Qingling would definitely not make such a judgment, it still made Lin Yi lose face in front of Huangfu Qingling.

"I said there is a way."

"Some people are more susceptible to soft tactics than hard ones. If you're being so forceful, you won't get anything out of them."

Lin Yi replied, "I heard from Bao Bu Tong that with His Majesty present, there's nothing you can do to remind them."

After hearing this, Prince Qing and Jingqi suddenly realized that this was the reason why Lin Yi sent Huangfu Qingling away?
