Jiang Yi raised an eyebrow at the dramatic turn of events, thinking how pitiful Jiang Tian was!
"Brother, it's embarrassing for me to let you witness this humiliating scene!"
Jiang Tian took a deep breath, "If this gets out, I, Jiang Tian, will become a laughingstock!"
"Young Master Jiang, you can rest assured! I saw nothing tonight, and nothing has happened in the castle!"
Jiang Yi knew what Jiang Tian meant.
"You know me well, brother, thank you so much!"
Jiang Tian said.
"You're too kind, Young Master Jiang!"
Jiang Yi smiled faintly.
"Brother, you're from the imperial capital and well-traveled. Perhaps you can help me analyze who this spy could be, to be so deeply hidden!"
Jiang Tian looked at Jiang Yi.
Jiang Tian was deliberately testing Jiang Yi.
"Young Master Jiang, in a place as complex as the imperial capital, every castle has informants from other factions. Even the King's palace likely has spies!"
"This kind of thing cannot be completely prevented, but precautions can be taken!"
Jiang Yi replied.
Hearing this, Jiang Tian's interest was piqued, and he couldn't help but ask, "How can we prevent it? Please, brother, enlighten me!"
"It's very simple, use benevolence and morality to influence them. Only then will they be loyal and never betray you!"
After speaking, Jiang Yi walked directly towards the backyard.
Jiang Tian snorted upon hearing this.
Jiang Yi's words were tantamount to saying nothing, as the killers under Jiang Tian were all bloodthirsty executioners. To try and influence them with benevolence and morality was utter nonsense.
A few minutes later, the butler found them again!
"Are there any clues?"
Jiang Tian asked the butler.
"Yes!"
The butler nodded. "We discovered from the signal receiver that the special envoy's one-eyed bodyguard sent two text messages when you sent your assassins out of the castle!"
"What was the content of the messages?"
Jiang Tian frowned and asked.
"The content was a reminder to the recipient about the assassins! Both messages were identical!"
The butler said.
Jiang Tian's face showed cold killing intent and anger upon hearing this.
"Young master, there's no time to delay. We must apprehend him. I'll bring men to capture him now!"
The butler said.
"Not now!"
"He is the special envoy's bodyguard. I can't just arrest someone. If we deal with that one-eyed fellow, the special envoy will surely be displeased!"
"There's no need to rush this matter. We already have evidence. Tomorrow morning, I'll personally go to the special envoy and confront that one-eyed fellow. How he is dealt with will be the special envoy's decision!"
Jiang Tian said.
The butler nodded and said no more.
Jiang Tian was quite shrewd, knowing that he couldn't act impulsively and had to proceed cautiously, or it would bring him unnecessary trouble.
At this moment, Jiang Yi had already reached the outside of the wall of the courtyard where Du Yue was being held.
Without alerting the guards, Jiang Yi scaled the wall and entered the courtyard.
He arrived at the room door and knocked.
"Who?"
Du Yue's voice came from inside the room.
"It's me!"
Jiang Yi said.
A moment later, Du Yue opened the room door and was stunned to see Jiang Yi standing there.
After regaining her composure, Du Yue couldn't help but ask, "You are the special envoy's bodyguard, I recognize you. What business do you have with me so late at night?"
"Why don't we talk inside the room? If Jiang Tian's men see us standing here, it won't be good!"
Jiang Yi said.
Du Yue was very vigilant, and her face showed hesitation, wondering whether to invite Jiang Yi into the room.
"I've come to help you!"
Jiang Yi said.
Hearing this, Du Yue stared into Jiang Yi's eyes, trying to see if he was lying.
But Jiang Yi's eyes were as deep as the night sky, and she could see nothing.
"It seems I'm being overly enthusiastic. You should take care of yourselves!"
Jiang Yi said, preparing to leave.
"Wait!"
Du Yue called out to Jiang Yi and then said, "Please come in!"
Jiang Yi smiled faintly and entered the room.
Inside the room, Du Yue poured Jiang Yi a cup of coffee and then sat down on a chair by the table.
Du Yue placed her hands under the table, holding a shotgun.
The muzzle was pointed in Jiang Yi's direction. If Jiang Yi made any unusual move, she would pull the trigger.
At this moment, Du Yue trusted no one.
"Miss Du Yue, you've followed Jiang Tian for many years, haven't you? You know his personality very well. He won't allow anyone who betrays him to live."
"Your and Pike's time is running out. Jiang Tian might even make you disappear from this world tonight!"
Jiang Yi looked at Du Yue and said.
Du Yue let out a cold laugh and remained silent.
"Now, only I can give you a chance to survive!"
Jiang Yi said.
"Sir, I don't know you. Why are you helping me? What benefit is there for you in helping me?"
Du Yue still didn't trust Jiang Yi.
"In a sense, my true purpose is not to help you. My only goal is to eliminate Jiang Tian's assassin organization and deal with Jiang Tian."
"You and Pike can be of assistance to me, so I intend to save you and cooperate with you!"
Jiang Yi said.
Hearing this, Du Yue's eyebrows furrowed.
"I can't trust you easily!"
Du Yue said.
"You can only trust me now, because I am the only one who can save both of you. You know this very well, so I don't need to say more."
"I will await your reply, but it must be quick. Jiang Tian could kill you at any moment!"
After speaking, Jiang Yi walked directly out of the room.
Jiang Yi had given Du Yue a choice. As for how she would choose, that was her own business.
After leaving Du Yue's courtyard, Jiang Yi returned to the courtyard where Meinaisha was staying.
At this moment.
The lights were bright in Meinaisha's room; she had not yet rested.
Jiang Yi glanced at her room and then sat on a stone stool, picking up his teacup to drink.
"Creak!"
The door to Meinaisha's room opened!
"Come in, I have something to ask you!"
Meinaisha called out to Jiang Yi.
Jiang Yi responded and entered Meinaisha's room.
Meinaisha sat on the sofa with her legs crossed, holding a glass of red wine. After taking a sip, she cast her gaze upon Jiang Yi.
"I just heard a lot of commotion in the castle. Did something happen?"
"Nothing major!"
"Young Master Jiang suspects there's a spy and planned to investigate. Unexpectedly, he didn't find the spy but instead discovered his wife's affair."
Jiang Yi said.
"This Jiang Tian is so useless, he can't even control his own wife."
Meinaisha said with a cold laugh.
