Chapter 1245: Encounter
Actually, Zhao Yong didn’t need to look for those men in black. He only had to get someone to disguise as Little Treasure and the others in order to lure them out.
However, those people’s martial arts were indeed powerful. A few of them escaped from the encirclement of the army in the Central Capital. Zhao Yong only brought back five survivors because the others either died or fled. Regardless, Little Treasure and Little Bear were already very satisfied.
The two of them had already guessed that there were people from Great Yuan and West Xia among the assassins, so they were not surprised to see the faces of the Hu people. They were more curious about the Han assassin who had been caught.
However, the Han assassin had not said a word since he was caught. If not for the fact that he was seriously injured and had his chin dislocated, he would probably have committed suicide.
Zhao Yong interrogated him for two days, but the other party still didn’t speak.
The guards said, "Your Highness, why don’t you hand him over to us and let us interrogate him?"
Having been hunted down along the way, they had a lot of pent-up anger. Since they had this opportunity, they naturally had to vent their anger.
Little Treasure nodded and smiled. "Alright, just make sure not to kill him."
After the guard left, Little Treasure said to Little Bear, "Regardless of whether we can get a confession or not, we have to return to the capital as soon as possible because we’ve been delayed for long enough due to the Weizhou matter."
Before leaving the capital, they’d planned to take the route from the west to the north, then back to the capital from the east. By the time they were done, it should be around mid-June. However, because of Ogedei, they were delayed in Weizhou for a month. Originally, they could have shortened the time and played all the way back from the east. However, after this assassination incident, the two of them could not afford any more delay.
