Emperor will kill

chapter 8
Strange, if you want to talk about robbery, the first to die should be these servants.
Staying as a slave not only has an extra mouth to eat, but also prevents him from betraying and reporting. If he is sold as a slave again, these killings will inevitably be reported, and he cannot be sold or used as a maid. Lose.

Because there is no value.

Chen Xiangxi's eyes just darkened, but he didn't say much.

I saw one of them reaching out to her and saying:
"This sister is so strong, do you have an entourage by her side? Where are you going? If you are traveling alone, why not get in the car with you and walk through this mountain road together, so you can save some energy and have someone to take care of you along the way."

Chen Xiangxi lowered his eyes, looked at her hand, and did not directly refuse.

Indeed, after such a long journey, I am indeed a little tired.

Now that the person has been saved, there will definitely be contact in the future. The capital is so big that you can't see the one who looks down and sees it again after refusing now.

Why don't you let them pay back the favor now, so that you don't have to talk about it later.

Besides, this eldest lady looked like a pampered master, she must have brought a lot of food with her, and she happened to be a little hungry after driving for such a long time, so why don't she eat something and take a rest.

Glancing at Xiao Yun beside her, she folded her arms and did not answer, presumably because she couldn't bear the status to invite her, but she didn't intend to refuse.

Chen Xiangxi thought about it and agreed.

Following the two of them to the front, they saw the carriage after a while.

Sitting on the ground next to him was a driver who was tied up and his mouth was gagged with a rag. When he saw them coming, his pupils constricted and he screamed "Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo".

There were signs of being chopped on the car, and the bodies of guards were all around.

Chen Xiangxi watched the servant girl run up to tear the rag out of the driver's mouth, untied him, and didn't answer.

They got into the carriage with the help of the servant girl, and the two of them sat firmly at the same time. The coachman immediately swung his whip and drove the horse forward.

Chen Xiangxi turned his head to look at the interior decoration of the carriage.

This carriage is luxurious.

What kind of material is it? It’s too late to tell, but just because of the four corners are hung with round hollow sterling silver ornaments, and there are luminous pearls inside, each of which can emit nine rays of light, and the interior of the carriage is like In the daytime, one can know that this carriage is by no means a vulgar thing.

Even Chen Xiangxi, who was born in the royal family, couldn't help but be speechless inwardly.

Then, another pity flashed in her heart.

But instead of going on the Kangzhuang Avenue, if you insist on taking such a deserted and roadless mountain road, bumping and bumping, you really feel wronged by this car.

As she thought about it, her gaze stayed on Xiao Yun's face who was sitting opposite.

Apparently the girl also felt her gaze, raised her eyes to meet hers, snorted, put her arms around her, and turned her face away.

"Don't worry, I won't thank you!"

And she added:

"Thinking of your attitude of saving people just now, Miss Ben will get angry! I won't thank you!"

Chen Xiangxi hooked his lips helplessly—I don't care too much.
"You're really annoying. If it weren't for you asking for something from me, Miss Ben really wouldn't let you get into Miss Ben's car!"

Then she said:
"You are just as annoying as that Chen Xiangxi!"

This is strange, it was the first time that Chen Xiangxi raised his eyebrows when he heard someone complaining that he hated him.

"Chen Xiangxi?"

Probably this name touched Xiao Yun's back, she stood up from her seat suddenly, clenched her fists and waved her hands, looking bloody and vengeful.

"Isn't that right! It's Chen Xiangxi, the war god of Yongyao Kingdom!"

As she spoke, she pointed at her nose with a vicious look.

"You're just as annoying as she is!"

Chen Xiangxi became a little interested when he heard it, and couldn't help raising his eyes to look at the person in front of him a few more times.

She has offended many people in this world, and many people want her life.

It can fully account for more than half of the names in the book of life and death of Lord Yan.

However, it should not include the one in front of him.

The Xiao family is well-known in the capital, so she has naturally heard of it.

But insisting on meeting, but only once.

That was at the Hundred Flowers Banquet, Xiao Yun's reputation as an oiran should have belonged to Xiao Yun, but she was intercepted halfway and snatched it away.

It is said that that time, she cried for a long time after returning home, and even her eyes were swollen from crying.

But how many years ago did this happen? It's so insignificant, it shouldn't be so long to think about it?

Thinking of this, Chen Xiangxi raised his head and asked:
"How did she disgust you so much?"

Even though this eldest lady has a very temper, she is not badly educated, and she has no habit of being bad-mouthed behind her back. She just folded her arms and turned her head, "Humph!", and then she didn't continue.

Chen Xiangxi smiled secretly, and didn't ask any further questions.

For a while, the carriage became quiet again.

This girl was so terrified at seeing the bloody scene, yet she calmed down in such a short period of time, which is not very human.

Chen Xiangxi was a little suspicious in his heart, and suddenly remembered that the grandfather of the Xiao family was once an offshoot of the owner of Xueyi City, and Xueyi City is one of the four major cities of Wuming Kingdom, with tens of thousands of soldiers and horses, brave and good at fighting, and made great military exploits After her death, she was chased by the emperor, and it was only in her father's generation that she began to enter the court and become a civil servant, but she was also famous for her literary and military skills, so she felt relieved.

This temperament should also be used to being wild since childhood, presumably I have seen this scene before, but I was a little panicked after not seeing him for a long time.

Thinking of this, she didn't think much about it.

She was indeed tired from the long journey just now, so she closed her eyes and took a nap.

The lady on the opposite side was probably a little tired, but she also calmed down at the same time.

After some time, the car stopped.

Chen Xiangxi opened his eyes slightly, there was no trace of fatigue in his eyes, they were already clear.

But the moment he saw the servant girl, he immediately closed his eyes and continued to pretend to be asleep.

Just listen to the maidservant:
"Miss."

Xiao Yun responded.

"What's the matter?"

"My maid met a strange weed on the road. It looked like the Jianglan fairy that the master had been talking about, but I was not sure if it was true. Why don't you get out of the car and help my maid to identify it?"

Chen Xiangxi laughed secretly when he heard it.

If an ordinary servant girl saw what she was doing just now, she might have been frightened and hurried on her way, how would she even bother to identify these flowers and plants?
However, he is not a very stupid person.

It can be seen that she is not a person who is easy to fool, so why not just fool Xiao Yun?
Probably because of what happened just now, the trust in these two people has deepened a bit, Xiao Yun did not have any doubts, and immediately agreed.

Chen Xiangxi still folded his arms and closed his eyes, but after Xiao Yun got off the car, he quietly looked out through the gap in the car's curtain.

as predicted.

She knew it to herself—the so-called herbal medicine was fake, but killing was real.

Seeing the servant girl leading Xiao Yun to the bottom of a big tree, pointing to a column of weeds and explaining to her decently, secretly leading her to the edge of the cliff, Chen Xiangxi didn't bother to talk nonsense with him, just got off the car and strode away Going to the side of the coachman, he raised his hand and lifted him by the collar, pulling him to the edge of the cliff.

The coachman was frightened and struggled desperately, but how could he be Chen Xiangxi's opponent?
I saw him desperately backing away, not wanting to be dragged away by her, but helplessly unable to restrain her strength, he followed her step by step, with his face turned into a liver-colored appearance by his collar.

The two eyeballs were protruding, revealing panic.

The soft soil under his feet was also pulled out two deep marks.

Seeing this, the two maidservants were also terrified, so naturally they didn't dare to act rashly, they all stared at Chen Xiangxi with terrified expressions.

Finally, Chen Xiangxi came to the edge of the cliff, and violently pulled the coachman towards the cliff with his arm, only to see that half of the coachman's body had already swung beyond the cliff.

This posture is really dangerous—the driver's upper body is completely outside the cliff, and only the toes of the lower body barely touch the edge of the cliff. Now the only thing that can guarantee him not to fall is Chen Xiangxi's hand holding his collar—— She let go, and he fell straight down!
Chen Xiangxi stared at the person in front of him, only listening to him say:

"You, you, what are you going to do?"

His face was terrified, and he couldn't even speak clearly.

Chen Xiangxi was indifferent.

"Do what you wanted to do but didn't have time to do."

The coachman's face froze, but he became innocent in an instant.

"What did I want to do but didn't have time to do?"

Chen Xiangxi still said:

"You know it yourself."

The coachman stammered.

"I obviously, I just wanted to save Miss just now, but I was helplessly—"

But the moment he saw a sneer at the corner of Chen Xiangxi's mouth, his voice stopped abruptly.

I saw Chen Xiangxi staring at him, and said word by word:

"I haven't said anything yet, why did you mention this matter?"

Then, she added.

"You know better than me."

The coachman became anxious, turned his head to look at the cliff, then looked at Chen Xiangxi again, and cursed loudly.

"Let me tell you, this cliff is so low that no one can fall to death! If I go down and survive, I will definitely find someone to do you!"

Chen Xiangxi took out a small knife from his waist and held it in his hand.

"When death is imminent, you can still keep your face unchanged, and you can be regarded as a character."

Then, I saw a cold light flashing across the coachman's wrist.

"what--"

Accompanied by shrill screams, blood spurted from the coachman's wrist!

He raised his arm tremblingly, and looked in disbelief at the half of his arm—his hand, gone!

Blood gushed out from his wound and fell onto the cliff below.

Immediately afterwards, there were endless screams, and the driver's body twitched violently, trying to break free from Chen Xiangxi's shackles, but she pulled him even tighter.

The blood from the wound flowed faster because of his violent movements.

Chen Xiangxi was still just watching, without any fluctuation in his expression.

Soon, the roar of wild beasts came from below, probably attracted by the blood.

The coachman turned his head and glanced at the beasts gathered under the cliff, raised his head and roared at him with a terrified expression.

Just heard a calm voice.

"Not bad enough."

It's Chen Xiangxi.

The driver's pupils shrank suddenly.

It turned out that her real purpose was not to throw him to death, but to throw him under the cliff and be bitten to death by wild beasts!
Then, the moment he watched her react, Chen Xiangxi let go.

"Plop—" There was a sound of objects falling from the bottom of the cliff.

Immediately afterwards, there was the deep cheers of wild beasts, accompanied by bursts of screams—presumably the group of bloodthirsty things had already started their delicious meal!
Chen Xiangxi stood on the edge of the cliff and listened, until the sound from below gradually weakened, and the cheers of wild beasts became much quieter, then Chen Xiangxi turned around - there should be no more people alive.

She turned around, walked up to the three people who had already stared blankly, and stopped.

"You you you you you - what are you doing?!"

Xiao Yun was the first to react.

The other two servant girls were huddled together by Chen Xiangxi's fright, and looked at her in horror.

Chen Xiangxi withdrew the knife, his voice was still calm and indifferent.

"As you can see, kill."

Obviously, Xiao Yun hadn't reacted yet, and stared at her blankly for a long time.

Then, a heart-piercing scream resounded through the night.

"What are you doing—don't come over—"

Chen Xiangxi took two steps back to distance herself from her, only then did she feel that the pain in her ear was slightly relieved.

With the lesson learned just now, this time Chen Xiangxi directly picked up a stone and threw it at her.

"Don't bark, it's too noisy."

Sure enough, Xiao Yun became quiet again.

But still with a pale face, watching her with fear.

Knowing that it would be useless to say anything to her at this time, Chen Xiangxi turned to look at the two servant girls.

"If I hadn't acted just now, you would have died, Miss Xiao."

As she spoke, she walked towards the two of them slowly.

"If I'm not wrong, this is actually not what you call herbal medicine at all, and you haven't seen this herbal medicine, have you?"

"Just now you said that you saw the herbs and wanted her to get out of the car to identify them, but you just wanted to take the opportunity to stop the car and kill her, right? In fact, you are with those bandits, right?"

Sentence by sentence, the voice was very slow, but with unquestionable majesty.

Sure enough, a trace of panic flashed in the eyes of the two servant girls.

Seeing that he had guessed correctly, Chen Xiangxi turned around and looked at the person behind him.

"Miss Xiao, you said that you decided to walk the path in the forest because it was fun and interesting. In fact, you are lying, right? In fact, this is not your original intention at all, it is just one or both of these two maidservants. I was urging you to walk this mountain forest, so you decided to go, right?"

Xiao Yun hadn't recovered from her panic, but Chen Xiangxi had an answer in her heart after glancing at the panic in the eyes of the two maidservants.

"Sure enough"

She smiled and was cold.

"How did you know they were trying to frame me just now?"

It was Xiao Yun's voice.

Yue Mo reacted.

Chen Xiangxi said without hesitation:

"These three are servants of the Xiao family. If they meet a servant girl, of course they will be killed first."

Xiao Yun didn't understand a little bit.

"why?"

Chen Xiangxi looked sideways at the posterity, and explained a little.

"Keep you, and you can still negotiate with the Xiao family, get money, keep them, and guard against a counterattack."

That Xiao Yun wasn't stupid either, a look of bewilderment suddenly appeared on her face.

Chen Xiangxi continued to look at the two people in front of him.

"At that time, when I saw you for the first time, I was very surprised. This eldest lady is a master who has been pampered on weekdays. How could she choose to walk in such a mountain forest? Besides, if the master at home disagrees, how can this maidservant?" Dare to hide it?"

As she spoke, she walked around behind the two servant girls and kicked at the hollows of their knees.

"Plop—" With a sound, both of them knelt down on the ground, raised their heads, and looked at the person in front of them in fear.

Chen Xiangxi walked around in front of the two of them, staring at them.

"I don't like it. People who can't see the situation clearly are stupid."

Then, she leaned over, looked at the two of them, and lowered her voice.

"What happened to the coachman died, do you know?"

The slightest threat is in my ears.

One of the maidservants was so frightened that she was trembling and unable to speak, the other was a little clever, and although she was also pale from fright, she immediately replied:

"Hui, Miss Hui, the coachman went to the edge of the cliff to use the toilet, and accidentally fell down, attracting wild beasts, and was bitten to death."

Chen Xiangxi straightened up, looked down at the two of them, and smiled.

"Very well, I like smart people."
