Chapter 114: The Dead
Later, Xiao Zichen asked something, Zheng Xi didn't answer, just didn't know anything, and the old god was standing there, not hearing or asking. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
Xiao Zichen's divine line finally glanced at her face, probably because she wanted to know what she had done or said, and she could make him, an imperial uncle who had not fallen for thousands of years, so angry that he could not go to the early dynasty.
It's a pity that Zheng Xi doesn't admit it, even if everyone suspects that she has done something, there is no evidence. On the contrary, it was Zheng Xi's indifference that made everyone beat a drum in their hearts, and said in their hearts: This woman is very sincere, and she can't be provoked.
As soon as the dynasty dispersed, Xiao Zichen sent someone to invite Zheng Xi, who was about to return to the official residence.
Facing Xiao Zichen's puzzled eyes, Zheng Xi hurriedly argued: "I didn't do anything!" It was he who sent someone to kill me last night, but he didn't succeed, and when he saw me alive and came to the court, he was angry! ”
Xiao Zichen listened to it and asked, "He sent someone to kill you?" ”
Zheng Xi said: "This minister has no evidence, guess!" Based on his reaction this morning, this guess should be correct. "Enough is enough, not nine times out of ten, but nine out of ten.
Xiao Zichen's face was not good-looking now, and he said, "It's me who has affected you!" ”
Zheng Xi said: "You can't say that, doesn't the emperor just want to use his ministers as gunmen?" How can it be said that the ministers are involved? ”
Siu Zichen: ......
Realizing that he was a bit too extreme in saying this, Zheng Xi continued: "It is the honor of the minister to let the emperor take the minister as a gunman. ”
Xiao Zichen really has nothing to say this time.
Anyway, what should be said was also said, thinking that the group of people in the house were still waiting for her to solve it, Zheng Xi asked Xiao Zichen weakly: "Can the minister go?" ”
"You don't have anything else to say to me?"
Zheng Xi waved his hand again and again: "No, what the minister should say and what he shouldn't say is all done!" ”
"Li Xu is back!" Xiao Zichen said.
"Yes! I saw it! "Can she not know that such a big living person is there?
"He ...... with you"
"The minister hasn't slept at night for the past two days, and he wants to take two days off from the emperor! Can? "Headache, dizziness! That is, her body is still young now, and if she is a few years older and boils like this, she will be beaten with iron and will have to fall.
Xiao Zichen sighed and said, "Go ahead!" ”
When Zheng Xi came out of Xiao Zichen's Ganquan Palace, he ran into Li Xu coming in.
Li Xu saw that Zheng Xi wanted to speak and stopped, but Zheng Xi didn't even stop his feet, only nodded politely at him and left.
Li Xu was stunned, probably because he didn't expect Zheng Xi to have this attitude towards him now.
Zheng Xi thought very open-mindedly, that is, when colleagues meet, they have to say hello, not to mention that they used to be roommates. She still has this politeness.
Back at the official residence, Zheng Xi changed his clothes and went to see the group of dead soldiers.
The dead man was directly locked up in Zheng Xi's banquet room by Xia Ju, his hands were tied behind his back, ropes were also tied to his feet, and his mouth was stuffed with a white cloth. The black scarf on his face had been removed, revealing young, malnourished faces.
It was caused by not seeing sunlight for a long time and not keeping up with the diet for a long time, which shows that the Xiao family does not take much care of these people.
When Zheng Xi entered, those people all showed expressions of looking at death as if they were at home.
Zheng Xi pointed his finger at the head and counted them, a total of twenty-one people.
Twenty-one people, that is, one person is the leader.
Zheng Xi looked at everyone carefully, and then fixed his gaze on a man who was obviously whiter than everyone else and was strong.
Zheng Xi asked Xia Ju to bring the man to her, then took the white cloth from his mouth and asked the man, "What's your name?" These are your men? ”
The people present obviously didn't expect Zheng Xi to guess it at once! There were puzzled expressions on their faces.
Although the man was surprised, he also had backbone, and only replied: "If you want to kill or chop, listen to it." ”
"Why should I kill you? You don't pose a threat to me! Zheng Xi replied lightly, and then continued: "But you haven't completed the task, I'm afraid there is only a dead end when you go back." ”
Seeing that those people all shrank back, Zheng Xi proposed: "But this official is a person who spares his life and talents, if you want, you can stay here!" Follow me in the future, and I promise that you will be well fed and sheltered, and live with dignity. ”
After speaking, Zheng Xi took out a stack of silver tickets from his sleeve, and personally stuffed them into the arms of those people one by one, and then said: "These are all silver tickets with a face value of 1,000 taels, with them, you can have your own home and your own life from now on!" The official will give each of you a name and a household register. "Look, how generous she is, using the Xiao family's money to bribe the Xiao family's carefully trained dead soldiers, and use her own privileges to take care of them.
After distributing the silver tickets, Zheng Xi said again: "I know that you have no family since you were a child, if you are willing, from today on, I will be your family." ”
"Of course, I will never force you, if you are willing to take the silver ticket back to the Xiao family, I will not stop you, how to choose, it is all up to you." After speaking, Zheng Xi asked Xia Ju to go to the white cloth that covered their mouths.
Finally, he added: "However, if there is still someone who wants the official's order, the official will not be polite!" In dealing with the enemy, the official will never be soft. ”
The dead are all cultivated from childhood, and they are often extremely loyal, and Zheng Xi's approach is undoubtedly risky. But in addition to digging into the corners of people, Zheng Xi has no time to re-cultivate people.
Zheng Xi was the first to personally tie the leader Xiao Nian, and when he untied it, Zheng Xi could almost hear his own thunderous heartbeat.
Saying that you are not nervous is pure pretense.
As expected, the young man pounced on Zheng Xi at the same time that his hands and feet were free, fortunately Zheng Xi had already taken precautions, and while retreating quickly, he had already handed out a knife in his hand.
That person's kung fu was not weak, and he dodged the knife handed by Zheng Xi with only one side, and Xia Ju saw that the situation was urgent, and he also showed his sword to help.
Zheng Xi roared: "Go down!" ”
If you want to subdue such a person, you can't just rely on your mouth, you have to use force to beat him to obey.
Xia Ju had to take the sword and retreat to the side to stand.
Zheng Xi shouted in his heart that being an official was hard, he was tired, and his hands couldn't be idle, and while carefully dealing with that person's attack, he was thinking about how to convince him.
Against such a person, Zheng Xi's chance of winning is actually the greatest, because her initial training was derived from this kind of training.
If you want to kill the other party, it is an easy thing for Zheng Xi. But she is really reluctant! She urgently needs such a team that belongs to her, so she can only work hard and work hard to let everyone present know her sincerity.
In the case of protecting herself and not letting herself be hurt a little, she also has to give the other party a face, not hurt the other party at all, and then defeat the other party.
Zheng Xi comforted herself, she regarded it as a sparring partner, and warmed up for a hundred strokes.
Good! Done! (To be continued.) )
