Chapter 231 Deception
Chapter 231 Deception
She had never heard of Tianwai Villa, but the old man knew He Jingheng, so He Jingheng must know the details of Tianwai Villa.
"What about you?" Shang Ruoyi glanced at them: "What forces do you belong to?"
"We are from Xinghemen." The man stammered.
Galaxy Gate.
Shang Ruoyi narrowed her eyes slightly, smiled and said, "I think your Xinghe Sect is no match for Tianwai Villa, otherwise why did that old man run away, but I caught you?"
what?
Ran?
The three of them couldn't help but grit their teeth. They didn't expect that they would be at a disadvantage again.
Shang Ruoyi's eyes flickered when she saw this, and she said slowly, "But I can consider giving you a chance to make meritorious contributions. As long as you can draw the location and structure of Tianwai Villa, I can let you go."
"Really?" the man said loudly.
"Of course." Shang Ruoyi's eyes flashed coldly: "That old guy actually dared to steal such an important thing. When I catch him, I will definitely skin him alive."
As Shang Ruoyi finished speaking, the man hurriedly asked, "What did you steal?"
"What's stolen got to do with you?" Shang Ruoyi glanced at them and raised her jade hand slightly. The man thought his leg was going to be stabbed, so he quickly shrank his neck in fear.
After a while, the expected pain did not come. He slowly opened his eyes and saw Shaoyao standing in front of him with paper and pen.
"Draw the blueprint and I will let you go." Shang Ruoyi said in a low voice.
The man got up from the ground and held the pen in his hand: "Are you saying this?"
"Seriously." She waved her hands: "It's useless for me to take your lives. I don't want to see blood on New Year's Day. It's very unlucky."
Hearing this, the man began to write quickly on the paper.
In less than the time it takes to stick an incense stick, a complete layout was completed.
Shang Ruoyi looked at the drawing in her palm and raised her eyebrows slightly: "I didn't expect that you are quite good at drawing."
“Tianwai Villa is our mortal enemy. We at Xinghe Sect have already figured out their layout.” He pointed to a secret door on the blueprint and said, “We have found out that there is a secret door here that leads to a farm behind the villa. There is a woman kept in that farm. She is the mistress of the owner of Tianwai Villa.” Speaking of Tianwai Villa, there was some excitement in his eyes: “Miss, you don’t know, but the wife of the owner of Tianwai Villa is a tigress. She doesn’t allow the owner to take a concubine, so the owner has to keep a concubine outside secretly. Tsk tsk tsk tsk…”
Shang Ruoyi was in no mood to listen to his nonsense. She put away the blueprints, looked at them and said, "I always keep my promises. I won't break my promises if I say I will let you go. Of course, if you dare to lie to me and fool me with fake blueprints, I will order people to hunt you down to the end even if you are at the end of the world." She waved her hand and a white smoke rose up. "The poison in your body has been eliminated, but there is still some residue. If I find out that you are lying, it will activate the toxins in your body. If you explode and die, don't blame me."
When the three heard this, their faces suddenly turned ugly.
I didn't expect that she had a backup plan.
"Girl, this blueprint is real."
"That's better." Shang Ruoyi waved her hand: "You guys go! I will definitely go to Xinghe Gate."
"Thank you for your kindness, young lady."
Several people left the He Mansion and looked back at the brightly lit mansion with extremely ugly expressions.
"Boss, that woman said that old fellow He Chen took something extremely important. It must be the ring." He covered the wound on his leg and said in a deep voice, "We failed in this mission. Who knows how the master will punish us."
"Yes, He Chen is a martial arts master. He personally attacked, and he must be coming for the ring. We must go back and tell the master that the ring was taken away by someone from Tianwai Villa. If the master knew that it was taken by He Chen, he would not blame us too much."
Shang Ruoyi stood by the window, and Shaoyao put her outer robe on her: "Miss, we clearly caught that man, why do you say he escaped?"
"The mountain man has his own clever plan." Shang Ruoyi smiled. Since everyone wanted to snatch the ring, she might as well spread the word and make Tianwai Villa the target of public criticism. Then, she could wipe out Tianwai Villa without any effort.
She came to the most remote room, where He Chen had been tied to a pillar.
Seeing her come in, He Chen snorted coldly: "I didn't expect that after a lifetime of success, I would be tricked by a little kid like you." He said in a deep voice: "I still haven't figured out when you poisoned me."
Shang Ruoyi shook the ring on her hand: "Aren't you here for this?"
He Chen's pupils shrank slightly: "You actually put poison on the ring."
"With so many people coveting this ring, I naturally have to think of some countermeasures." Shang Ruoyi smiled: "But I am very curious, what do you want this broken ring for?"
He Chen looked at the ring on her hand and sneered, "What do you, a woman, know? This jade ring is more than just a decoration."
"It is the symbol of the Dingguo Palace." Shang Ruoyi said calmly, "But now the Dingguo Palace no longer exists, and this ring is just a thought. I really don't understand what the meaning of your succession is."
"Why doesn't it make sense?"
"What's the meaning?" Shang Ruoyi sneered, "You don't think it's true as the rumors say, that this ring is the key to some secret treasure! Or that if you get the ring, you can command millions of soldiers." She couldn't help but laugh out loud: "If there really are millions of soldiers and countless treasures, do you think the Dingguo Palace will still suffer in this wild land? Wouldn't it be better to overthrow the court and become the emperor? According to the prestige of the Dingguo Palace over the years and its status in the hearts of the people, if there is a rebellion, the world will only think it is the court's fault."
Her words made He Chen fall into deep thought.
After a while, he looked at Shang Ruoyi and said in a hoarse voice: "How do you know so much?"
"Not only do I know so much, I also know, was it He Jing and that bastard who told you all this?"
Shang Ruoyi was right. After He Jinghe was brought to Tianwai Villa, he told them everything about the ring without them interrogating him.
"I immediately guessed it was him, He Jing and that bastard. Ever since he was kicked out of the He family, he has been unwilling to resign and has been spreading rumors and fanning the flames everywhere. He wishes to kill our entire family. Is he still in your Tianwai Villa now?"
He Chen was shocked: "How do you know I am from Tianwai Villa?"
