Use it when it is needed.

Throw it aside when it is not.

"Bai Lang, you say she is the proprietress of the Jishan Gambling House?"

He looked at the woman dressed in black, whose mask had been removed!

Bai Lang nodded: "That's right."

"The Jishan Gambling House is a famous establishment. Its owner is a charming beauty named Yao Niang. She has taken over her husband's family business for several years and managed it in perfect order. She welcomes guests all day long and is quite prominent."

As he spoke, his eyes looked with complexity at this woman who possessed both dominance and beauty.

He paused.

He added: "She is also Brother Gao's confidante, but I never expected that her hidden identity would be the enemy 'Sixteen Nights' whom Brother Gao has been tracking for years."

After being captured.

Yao Niang smiled the entire time, without wailing or begging for mercy.

Until Bai Lang's subsequent words.

Yao Niang: "Gao Bingzhu and I, I did not approach him on purpose."

After saying this, she did not speak again.

Since she was a child, her father had sold her to a foreigner for a bag of rice, and then she was trained by the Spring and Autumn Dao to become an assassin.

Gao Bingzhu had helped Yao Niang many times, and his kindness deeply moved Yao Niang, who was controlled by fate.

Yao Niang fell in love with Gao Bingzhu. During many missions, she never truly harmed Gao Bingzhu, and even assisted him from within. When Gao Bingzhu was being hunted by the Internal Guards, she hid the severely injured Gao Bingzhu, helping him escape a disaster.

She and Gao Bingzhu were very close people; the two did not ask what the other was doing, but both protected each other in their own ways.

Therefore, she did not want to be misunderstood by Gao Bingzhu, thinking that her being with him was for some purpose.

Jiang Ji did not believe her lightly: "Tell us what you know, and suffer less physical pain."

"Every time I receive a mission, I have no right to ask why. I only have to execute it unconditionally, kill people, and complete the mission so that I can continue to live."

Yao Niang's expression was calm.

A beautiful smile appeared on her face again.

"You want to say you don't know anything?"

Jiang Ji sneered.

He intended to torture her.

Yao Niang was silent.

"Lord Jiang, I think she probably doesn't know anything. How about this, let's wait until the Master's wedding is over. If the Master has no objections, we will then directly execute her in secret."

Thinking of his good friend Gao Bingzhu, Bai Lang intended to plead for him.

In his view.

This woman should really just be a tool-like assassin.

She was not in the decision-making layer.

However, letting her go was impossible.

She had just assassinated his Master, Jia Hui.

He could not let her go either.

Jia Hui had shown him great favor and kindness.

Compared to Gao Bingzhu.

Bai Lang was more inclined toward Jia Hui.

This was also the reason he was able to sit in this position.

Being able to let this Yao Niang suffer less torture was already a way for him to be loyal to Gao Bingzhu without harming Jia Hui, a perfect solution.

Killing her was just killing her; he wouldn't gain any benefits.

Since that was the case.

He would rather give the other party a quick end directly.

Instead of letting her suffer torture.

Hearing him mention the Master.

Jiang Ji looked at the incredibly beautiful Yao Niang.

Then he thought of Gao Bingzhu.

"If this woman really has no problems, she can be imprisoned for the Master to enjoy; using foot shackles and hand shackles to imprison her, there is no fear of trouble. At the same time, keeping her alive can further control that Gao Bingzhu well, killing two birds with one stone."

This made Jiang Ji put down his murderous intent instead.

........... 0

Hmm.

As for the thought of giving her to Jia Hui to enjoy.

Jiang Ji knew his Master's hobbies too well!

He understood too well!

He really, I'm dying of laughter!

This was the difference between Jiang Ji and Cheng Yu.

And Chen Gong and Mao Jie and the others.

If it were Chen Gong and Mao Jie and the others.

They would probably choose to execute her directly, or torture her severely.

And this was also the reason why Jiang Ji was able to become one of the decision-makers of the Memorial Bureau in history.

One is inclined toward the public.

One is inclined toward the private.

Loyal to the imperial court or the world, or loyal to the Emperor?

It is roughly the difference between the Royalist Party, the Eunuch Party, and the Pure Stream.

"The remaining question is, who instructed the Spring and Autumn Dao to attack and kill the Master."

"Is it Wu Youjue?"

Jiang Ji frowned slightly.

Because he also knew that Wu Youjue's own sister, Wu Siyue, was Jia Hui's woman.

Therefore, he felt it was a bit tricky.

He decided to wait until Jia Hui's wedding banquet was over.

Report to the Master, and then discuss how to handle it.

The other assassins had already been tortured.

But they were very tough and did not leak a single bit.

So Jiang Ji decided to turn to attacking the pirate Jiang Huai's group!

"Jiang Huai, if you are smart, tell me the mastermind behind the scenes!"

Thus, Jiang Ji immediately ordered people to secretly transfer Yao Niang away.

And turned to go to the pirate Jiang Huai's location.

【243】Ge Shi sends her daughter Cheng Yang; the mastermind is the Marquis of Jingyuan!

This time it went very smoothly.

Having just endured the whip punishment.

The skin-torn Jiang Huai said painfully: "The Qu family!"

Jiang Huai was a pirate.

He was just someone who sought money and killed people.

Cruel as he was.

He was not as rigorously trained as the assassins of the Spring and Autumn Dao.

Therefore, just as soon as torture was applied.

He confessed everything.
