Grace and peace to you from our Lord Jesus Christ.
At this point Jesus could talk his way out of being crucified. Jesus is a cunning speaker, which is made evident in his sermons and other sayings. As the high priest is questioning Jesus I am sure Jesus could have found some way of getting out of this situation. However, Jesus does not talk his way out of it, he does not try and get out of the situation. Jesus has every chance to escape, to get away from the cross, but he does not. Jesus follows the path God has laid out for him, and he does it for our sake. This shows just how deep Jesus' love for us is: that he has every chance to escape, to get away, but he does not. Jesus loves us too much not to go through with it. God bless you.
