Datang's free and easy concubine

Chapter 793

In the morning, Su Cheng let out a breath while eating an exquisite breakfast. Although Wu Jue who was sitting next to him also had a tired face, his small face was as delicate and beautiful as a flower.

Sitting on the other side, Shen Xiao and Luo Xiangfeng felt refreshed. They had been tossed a lot during the journey northward, and even though they had extraordinary martial arts skills, they still felt a little overwhelmed.

Moreover, it was difficult for them to adapt to the bumpy state on the boat. Now that they are back in Yuhang, after a good night's sleep, they feel refreshed and full of energy.

While sipping porridge, Wu Jue quietly looked at Shen Xiao and Luo Xiangfeng. From the expressions of Shen Xiao and Luo Xiangfeng, she had concluded that they had been taken in by Su Cheng.

Wu Jue was not surprised by this at all, after all, she and Yingluo were like mirrors in their hearts before they set off.

Yingluo walked in quickly with a look of panic on her face, and exclaimed, "My lord, General Xue asked my mother-in-law to report that a human head was found in the garden!"

Found a human head?Wu Jue, who was sipping porridge, couldn't help but turn pale. How could there be a head in the garden?This is too scary, right?

Now Wu Jue is very glad that such a thing happened when Su Cheng came back, otherwise she would be so scared that she would have nightmares at night!

Shen Xiao and Luo Xiangfeng's expressions were normal after hearing this, they had seen many dead people in the rivers and lakes, so naturally they didn't feel afraid.

As for Su Cheng, he has seen more dead people!

Wu Jue saw that he couldn't eat any more, but Su Cheng still ate it deliciously. While eating, he casually asked, "Whose head is it?"

Yingluo shook her head with a white face and said, "I don't know, I don't seem to be from the manor!"

At first, Su Cheng thought it was a murder case in the manor, but he didn't expect that it was not someone from the manor.

Who would that be?

Who would kill someone and throw their heads here?

Isn't this asking for trouble?

Or is there another purpose?

intimidating?

Isn't this skill too shallow?

Su Cheng wiped his mouth and said with a smile: "I'll go and see, you don't have to be afraid, we have so many elite soldiers!"

Wu Jue nodded and said, "With you here, we won't be afraid!"

Not to mention that Su Cheng came back with the musketeers, and Xue Wanche's two thousand cavalry, it would be a joke if someone broke in to commit murder!

Shen Xiao and Luo Xiangfeng hurriedly followed, they both wondered if there were some assassins in the manor.

Xue Rengui and the others looked serious, and when they saw Su Cheng approaching, they hurriedly reported: "My lord, the head was found near the courtyard wall, and it has been confirmed that the deceased was not from the manor! It seems that someone took the head outside. Throw it in!"

"There is a portrait next to the head, and the person painted on it is the dead man!"

Su Cheng looked at the portrait, and then at the head. He was sure he had never seen this person. The question is who killed the man and threw the head at him?

Is it just a drop in the road?

Su Cheng frowned and asked, "Have you gone out to inquire around the area, has anyone been killed?"

Xue Rengui shook his head and said: "The last general sent people to investigate, and he didn't hear that anyone was killed! My lord, do you want to report to the officials?"

Su Cheng frowned and pondered, and suddenly his heart moved, and he pondered: "Do you think it is possible that this is Mr. Xu?"

Mr. Xu?Xue Rengui couldn't help being slightly startled when he heard this, and then he said in doubt: "If someone finds Mr. Xu, he must be captured alive to get a reward!"

"Even if you kill him in a fight, it's impossible to throw the head in secretly, but send it with great fanfare. With the grandeur of the father-in-law, he will definitely give them a lot of rewards!"

What Xue Rengui said made sense, but what if Mr. Xu was silenced instead of people from the Jianghu?

It's not impossible!

Su Cheng turned his head and asked, "Do you think this is Mr. Xu?"

Luo Xiangfeng shook her head slightly and said, "I don't know what Mr. Xu looks like. I'll go and find out immediately. After offering a reward for so long, Mr. Xu's face should have spread!"

Just as Luo Xiangfeng finished speaking, Xue Wanche came striding over, shouting, "Mr. Jun, have you found the head? Who dares to come here to make trouble?"

Xue Wanche who walked in also saw the face of the head clearly, and said in surprise: "Hey, isn't this Mr. Xu?"

Su Cheng asked in surprise: "Old Xue, you actually know Mr. Xu?"

"Isn't that the portrait of Mr. Xu? It has been spread everywhere, and I have it too!" Xue Wanche explained.

In the beginning, Mr. Xu was indeed quite mysterious, because very few people had seen Mr. Xu, but after all, there were people who had seen it, because the whole world was in turmoil because of the bounty offer, and Mr. Xu's portrait quickly spread.

After Xue Wanche came to Yuhang, he couldn't forget Mr. Xu who offered a reward to Su Cheng, so he also bought a portrait of Mr. Xu, thinking that when he met Mr. Xu, he would cut off his dog's head with a knife.

Su Cheng, Xue Rengui and others went south without stopping, but they didn't pay attention to these things.

Luo Xiangfeng exclaimed: "It's really Mr. Xu? He died just like that?"

Shen Xiao wondered: "Who killed him? Why did you secretly throw his head in?"

Su Cheng couldn't help laughing when he heard this: "Of course the master behind Mr. Xu gave up on him, and directly took his head and sent it over. This is to make amends to me!"

"It seems that the warships equipped with artillery have scared these aristocratic families! In order to prevent one day I will find out about them through Mr. Xu, so Mr. Xu was executed in advance!"

Luo Xiangfeng and Shen Xiao were very happy when they heard that, since Mr. Xu died, the reward on Su Cheng would naturally disappear!

In the future, you don't have to worry about someone being unfavorable to Su Cheng all the time!

And Mr. Xu died, which means that the 1 taels of gold was also saved!

If someone really brought Mr. Xu to offer a reward, I don't know what Su Cheng will do, anyway, the two of them will be so distressed.

Luo Xiangfeng excitedly said: "I will pass on the news of Mr. Xu's award, and the reward for you will be cancelled!"

In fact, Su Cheng was not very surprised. Compared to Mr. Xu's death being so unclear, he still hoped that someone could capture Mr. Xu alive.

He thought it was worth buying a Mr. Xu with 1 taels of gold.

Pity!

Su Cheng nodded and said, "Then take this head with you, otherwise you won't be able to tell!"

Luo Xiangfeng nodded after hearing this. After all, it was about 1 taels of gold, lest people in the Jianghu thought that Su Cheng was unwilling to part with 1 taels of gold and canceled the reward.

The death of Mr. Xu, who was famous in the world, is a big deal for the whole world, because it is related to the reward of ten thousand taels of gold.

But to Su Cheng, to the aristocratic family, this is just a trivial matter.
