Chapter 226: How to Save People?
The rope with the hilt of the knife was wrapped around the branch from the other side, and was tied around the waist of the masked man, and the rope that was wrapped around the branch was deliberately broken, and only a thin section was joined together.
If there is any movement of others, he can cut the rope with a wave of his hand at the moment when he wants to approach the masked man, and if he wants to use a hidden weapon or something to shoot the masked man, the moment the masked man falls, he can pull the rope wrapped around the branch, because the force of falling to the ground is enough to tear the thin rope, the hanging knife will sink into Mrs. Zhiqi's body in the blink of an eye, and the rotation of the grinding stone is enough to stir her intestines.
Even if no one made a move on the masked man, the rope that was about to be worn down would not last long, and when the rope broke, Mrs. Zhiqi was still killed by a knife. Then, as the grinding stone rotated, it swirled a bloody hole in the body like a whirlwind.
"Hey! Do you agree to Lao Tzu's request? The hooded man wore a mask and shouted angrily, "Lao Tzu doesn't care, it's a big deal to die." If you don't want this woman, let her die with Lao Tzu, ha, this girl is not bad, go to the underworld to serve Lao Tzu, hahaha! ”
"What does he want?" Lin Xin'er avoided the wind and returned behind the small door.
Listening to the man's voice, the middle qi was quite sufficient, and it seemed that without waiting for him to run out of strength to push the grinding stone, the rope would inevitably break before he was too tired to lose.
"How's the mother?" Lord Fu Yin asked nervously.
If Princess Xuan said the word "face pain", he would be charged with poor care, and he couldn't eat and walked away.
"This princess has nothing to do." Lin Xin'er couldn't see this Fu Yin's attitude of making a big fuss and not distinguishing between the important and the serious, and asked sharply, "What does that person want?" ”
"Him?" Fu Yin wiped his sweat.
"He wants us to find Simonhai before the rope is broken." Yang Chen walked over to Fu Yin.
Fu Yin nodded repeatedly.
Want to see Simonhai? It's really not easy. Even Huangfu Yan Chong didn't know where Ximenhai left Wuli Peak, how could he find someone in such a short time?
I don't think that person is deliberately looking for trouble.
But he's risking his life to find trouble, who is it?
Lin Xin'er returned to the door of the house again and examined the situation in the courtyard.
The rope wrapped around the branches has been sharpened very thinly, and it is estimated that it will be broken before Ximen Jingxuan arrives from the palace, so he can no longer expect to hear King Xuan's idea at this time.
"Where did he get the opportunity to do this?" Lin Xin'er asked with a twisted eyebrow.
It will take time to tie up Zhiqi and hang the knife again, can he do these things without resistance?
Fu Yin, who was waiting behind her, hurriedly dragged the big shopkeeper of Liuhetang on the side, "You tell the princess Niangniang carefully." ”
"Back to my mother." The big shopkeeper stood in front of Lin Xin'er, bent over and said, "At that time, the incident happened suddenly, Mrs. Zhiqi was originally taking medicine in the pharmacy, and she was suddenly caught and taken to the courtyard. At that time, a large area was knocked down. ”
Lin Xin'er followed the words of the big shopkeeper and looked to the side, there were still a few people in the room humming and chirping, probably trying to resist in vain and being injured.
And the yard is indeed a little messy.
"Don't hide it from the princess, the matter of tying up Mrs. Zhiqi and the hanging knife was done by the guys in Liuhetang at the behest of that gangster." The big shopkeeper said, "At that time, that person suddenly held Madame hostage, and the knife was on Madame's neck, and the little ones didn't dare to disobey, for fear that Madame would make a mistake, and the result would be ......."
The big shopkeeper can't go on, and there is no need to say it.
"As a result, you hung the knife on Mrs. Zhiqi's body, and was choreographed by this madman to make something like this?" Lin Xin'er asked, "Your guys are really fast." ”
The implication is, can't you have a little brain to delay the timing and wait for the help to come?
"Mother's forgiveness!" The big shopkeeper naturally understood Lin Xin'er's voice, and knelt down, "Liuhetang takes diagnosis and medical treatment as its own responsibility, and has always done its duty, and I have never seen such a scene." At that time, there was an accident, and I was really afraid that Mrs. Zhiqi would make a mistake, so I had to obey this gangster's orders, thinking that if I could follow the gangster and do things according to his words, there would be no danger to my life. Niangniang, the gangsters just want the little marquis, you might as well make an exception and let Steward Yang bring the little marquis first, and save the lady first, if there is any delay, I am afraid of hurting the lady! ”
The words of the big shopkeeper unabashedly admit that the people of Liuhetang only have a single mind such as curing diseases and saving people, and lack the judgment of responding to the enemy when they are in danger, and they also pretend to be ignorant and let Ximenhai be handed over.
"Niangniang, if you want to blame Liuhetang, please save Mrs. first, the old man is willing to be punished for this matter!" The big shopkeeper said and kowtowed again to show his sincerity.
Lin Xin'er didn't have anything to say to a group of nerds, and waved her hand to dismiss the big shopkeeper.
At this point, it's useless to blame anyone, it's still important to save people.
If Zhiqi is allowed to die in front of everyone like this, it will not be good for the prestige of King Xuan's mansion. This person pointed out that he wanted Ximenhai, I don't know if he really didn't know that Ximenhai was rescued, or did he deliberately make things difficult for Xuanwangfu? But no matter what, she had to solve the problem.
"Princess Xuan, you see that the time is almost up, hurry up and order someone to bring Ximenhai, if King Xuan's wife dies, it will make people think that you deliberately want to take the opportunity to get rid of the thorn in your side out of jealousy, and in front of everyone, it is not good for the reputation of the princess!" The hooded man said angrily.
Lin Xin'er didn't expect this masked man to recognize her. It is said that Lin Xin'er has always been very low-key before, and outsiders only heard rumors, and few people really recognized her, but this person actually told her identity at once.
It seems that he is really familiar with King Xuan.
Lin Xin'er thought to herself, and there was a little coldness in her eyes when she looked at the man.
"Steward Yang," Lin Xin'er beckoned to Yang Chen.
Yang Chen walked over.
"Do you have a solution?" Lin Xin'er asked.
"Nope." Yang Chen replied very directly.
He had already ordered someone to enter the palace to report to King Xuan, but after all, the road was far away, and there was no news yet.
Other than that, he didn't know what to do. The knife hung less than an inch on Mrs. Zhiqi's body, and he really didn't dare to act rashly against that gangster.
"None? If it goes on like this, you and I might as well not come. Lin Xin'er said.
Of course, Yang Chen also knew that it was better not to come when he saw Mrs. Zhiqi die in front of him. If you don't come, it can be said that something delayed the rescue, and when you came, you were helpless but were seen as a joke in the Xuan Palace.
"Does the princess have an idea?" Yang Chen asked. Although he didn't have a good impression of this Mochizuki, with her identity as the young palace master of the Water Moon Palace, he still had some hope for her when he encountered problems.
"At this time, I just need to save Mrs. Zhiqi." Yang Chen said.
He also thought of shooting the man with an arrow, but as soon as the man fell, he would break the rope......
"Hey, Princess Xuan, are you persuading this housekeeper of King Xuan's Mansion?" The masked man saw Lin Xin'er whispering to Yang Chen, and said loudly with an urn, "Shouldn't he be dissatisfied with you, the princess who just entered the door?" This is when you are in power, if these guys refuse to listen to you, how can you gain a foothold in the Xuanwang Mansion in the future? ”
"Shut up!" Yang Chen was very annoyed and couldn't help but snort.
He didn't want to listen to the words of this fake princess, but he had no idea at the moment, and he had to ask her opinion, his stomach was on fire, and that guy was still provoking with words, and he really wanted to kill him with a knife.
Lin Xin'er smiled lightly, knowing that Yang Chen was really annoyed this time, and sprinkled all the anger that had "fascinated" King Xuan on her.
"I just told Steward Yang that Ximenhai is a key criminal in the imperial court, and he must not be handed over, as for Mrs. Zhiqi, after she dies, I will ask the prince to title her Princess Xuan, although she is still honored." Lin Xin'er said in a casual and loud voice, so that everyone present could hear it clearly, "If you want to play here, this princess wants to see if the rope is broken first, or if you lose the strength to turn the grinding stone first." ”
"Princess!" Yang Chen's face changed abruptly, and he said in a low voice.
Lin Xin'er glanced at him, "Aren't you trying to save people?" ”
Yang Chen's body was stiff, and he had no bottom in his heart.
Lin Xin'er ignored Yang Chen and slowly approached the stone mill.
"Princess!" Fu Yin shouted anxiously.
The strong wind swirling on the grinding stone continued to hit everyone's faces, and Yin of the capital mansion wanted to dodge it for a long time, but when he saw Princess Xuan approaching him step by step, he didn't dare to retreat.
Yang Chen followed Lin Xin'er and walked forward.
"What? Do you really want Mrs. Zhiqi's life? The hooded man didn't expect Lin Xin'er to dare to choose to let Zhiqi die in front of everyone.
"When will you wait?" Lin Xin'er walked forward and said, "I just happened to take a closer look at what kind of death penalty this is?" In the future, if there is a chance, I will ask the emperor to set one up. ”
Lin Xin'er's voice was relatively low, and only the masked man who was getting closer and closer could hear it with Yang Chen behind her.
Yang Chen's heart hung high, and he didn't dare to leave the knife hanging over Mrs. Zhiqi for a moment.
He really couldn't figure out the bottom of Mochizuki, if this woman really wanted to take the opportunity to ask for Mrs. Zhiqi's life, it would be reasonable to want to dominate the Xuan Palace.
The Water Moon Palace dominates the rivers and lakes, what can its young palace master not do?
"You're such a vicious woman!" After listening to Lin Xin'er's words, the masked man also commented on it.
"Look, people are dizzy, even if they die, they can't feel the pain, it's really not interesting." Lin Xin'er squinted at Zhiqi, who was moving with the grinding stone, her face was unusually pale and bloodless, probably frightened, and she had already passed out. Even if I suffered any pain, I was unconscious.
"How about I talk to you about waking her up first?" Lin Xin'er proposed.
