Chapter 531: Killing
Shen Liuyue looked them up and down a few times, they were all ordinary, no different from ordinary people.
But they don't smell of alcohol, and they're not drunkards. Shen Liuyue frowned.
There is still a distance from a crowded place, and Shen Liuyue is not familiar with this place, she is an unarmed woman, if she really wants to fight, how can she fight these men.
"Naturally, I'm here to play with you." One of the men smiled, and his expression was as lewd as he was.
Shen Liuyue couldn't help but feel sick to her stomach, and tilted her head to the side in disgust.
"I have nothing to do with you, what are you playing?" Shen Liuyue didn't bother to deal with them.
With that, she was going to bypass a few men and leave.
But as soon as she took a sideways step, someone deliberately blocked her again.
"What the hell are you doing?" Shen Liuyue was quite impatient. Originally, she was in a hurry, and the few people in front of her looked at Jiao'er Langdang, and she didn't look like a good person. Shen Liuyue's temper came up instantly, and she didn't have a good face for them.
"Liu Yuetang has only been open for a while, and its reputation has already spread. I heard that Liu Yue, the proprietress of Liu Yuetang, often wears a veil and never lets people see her appearance. Our brothers are curious, a smart and capable woman like you should also look like a beautiful country. As the man spoke, his eyes had already rolled over Shen Liuyue a few times.
Shen Liuyue's brows furrowed.
As soon as the words fell, several men surrounded Shen Liuyue. Before Shen Liuyue could ask questions, someone grabbed her arm and ripped the veil off her face.
No matter how hard Shen Liuyue struggled, she couldn't resist a few men.
"Hell!"
When they saw Shen Liuyue's appearance, some of them shouted fiercely.
It was as if Shen Liuyue was really some terrifying monster who wanted to eat him.
Shen Liuyue had long expected that others would look like this when they saw her appearance, and there was no turmoil in her heart. She just wanted to get rid of these people as quickly as possible.
"So you're so ugly." One of the men glanced at Shen Liuyue with disgust. "I thought you were so attractive."
"So you can let me go?" Shen Liuyue didn't seem to hear what the man said.
She didn't care how ugly the descriptions of these people were.
"Let go of you? There is no such simple thing in this world. The man snorted coldly, thinking that Shen Liuyue had said some big joke.
Several men dragged Shen Liuyue, and she watched one of them take out the sack and reach out to put it on Shen Liuyue's body when suddenly the man fell, and the blood soaked the ground around him.
Shen Liuyue was dumbfounded, and when she looked up again, she had already seen Ying Yi fighting with several men.
Someone finally came to her rescue. Shen Liuyue breathed a sigh of relief. She was convinced of Ying Yi's skills, and Shen Liuyue was busy picking up the veil that had fallen on the ground and putting it back on.
Soon, Keichi kills everyone else, leaving only the leader man.
When the sword was about to pierce into the man's chest, Shen Liuyue suddenly shouted to stop.
Ying Yi knew that Shen Liuyue must have had his own plans, so he withdrew his sword and retreated behind Shen Liuyue.
Shen Liuyue walked up to the man step by step and looked at him condescendingly.
"Tell me, 'Who sent you?' Shen Liuyue asked.
For no reason, neither robbing money nor lust, Shen Liuyue didn't believe that there was no one behind them. If they were really so boring, just to see her true appearance, then there was no need for them to take a sack to catch Shen Liuyue just now.
Shen Liuyue thought about it carefully, she was also diligent in doing business, and she had never offended anyone. She couldn't figure out who was going to harm her.
The man turned his head, looking completely stubborn.
"Kill him." Ying Yi was much more decisive, and when he saw that the man's attitude was not good, he took out his sword again and killed the man directly.
"Don't." Shen Liuyue grabbed Ying Yi's wrist.
"If you tell me, I'll let you go. In order to help others teach me a lesson, in the end, even took your own life, do you think it is worth it? Shen Liuyue was calm and restrained, and she was good at seducing the man to shake off the person behind him.
Shadow drew his sword with a gesture, and the man trembled all over, and quickly let go.
"Yes...... It was a girl who asked us to do this, saying that she would take you to the barren mountains outside the city to solve the problem, and she would give us three thousand taels. The man wanted to cry without tears, and lowered his head to tell the whole story.
Yes, the good brother is gone, the money is flying, and everyone wants to cry.
"Who?" Shen Liuyue then continued to ask.
was willing to buy her life with 3,000 taels, this person really hated her to the core.
"I don't know, this girl is wearing lotus root powder clothes, and she looks like a maid from which family, but most of the maids from the powerful families in the capital are dressed like this, and I can't guess." The man sighed helplessly. "But she has a mole between her nose and on both sides of her cheeks."
This was the greatest feature of the girl who instructed her.
Shen Liuyue kept coming up with one face after another in her mind, whether it was the customers she often saw, or the boss of another family who also opened a medical clinic, Shen Liuyue speculated one by one.
"Since it's a little girl, how can you be sure that she will take three thousand taels?" Shen Liuyue was curious. After all, three thousand taels is not a small amount for anyone.
"Because she gave us five hundred taels in advance." The man told Shen Liuyue.
Shen Liuyue frowned, and suddenly the figure in her brain stopped.
"Let's go." Since Shen Liuyue guessed who was behind her and wanted to kill her, she fulfilled her promise to let the man go. Reading the book
The man fled non-stop, for fear that Shen Liuyue would regret it halfway.
Shen Liuyue's expression became more and more solemn.
"Princess, are you alright?" Eichi frowned tightly, his tone very worried.
Even if Shen Liuyue has no identity in the palace now, Ying Yi knows that as long as she is willing to come back, the position of the princess must still be Shen Liuyue's.
In Xuanyuan Zichen's heart, no one can replace Shen Liuyue.
"It's fine." Shen Liuyue smiled. "Thank you for today."
If it weren't for Kageichi appearing in time, I'm afraid she would have been taken to the barren mountain now, and it is not certain whether she would have died or not.
"Did the princess guess who instructed them?"
A deep meaning flashed in Shen Liuyue's eyes.
"Eichi, you and I are old acquaintances, so you don't have to go around in circles in front of me." Shen Liuyue chuckled.
Ying Yi is the personal guard of the regent, if he can't even find out this little thing, how can he be qualified to serve by Xuanyuan Zichen's side.
Now that Shen Liuyue knew, it was impossible for Ying Yi not to count in his heart.
Hearing this, Shadow paused, and then chuckled.
"The princess is still so smart and clever." Ying Yi couldn't help but praise Shen Liuyue for being careful.
After the laugh, Keichi fell into seriousness again.
Su Zhici has already exposed Shen Liuyue's identity, and has secretly troubled her repeatedly. Shen Liuyue seems to be more auspicious.
"Aren't you going to come back?" Keichi was really helpless.
He also knew that Shen Liuyue was doing this for the sake of Xuanyuan Zichen's plan, but seeing that the two people who were worried about each other couldn't recognize each other, Ying Yi's heart was in a hurry.
"We'll talk about it later." The corners of Shen Liuyue's mouth barely pulled out a smile. "Today's events will definitely reach Su Zhizi's ears, and it should be able to deter her a little. I just feel guilty, if she knew you were helping me, she would definitely see you as an adversary. ”
"How can her status with the prince be higher than that of her subordinates." Keichi is very confident.
He knew Xuanyuan Zichen's plan in his heart, and he grew up with Xuanyuan Zichen since he was a child, and Xuanyuan Zichen would tell him any plan. Ying Yi wouldn't believe that Xuanyuan Zichen would punish him for a Su Zhizi.
That's true. Shen Liuyue breathed a sigh of relief.
After getting out of the morning court, Xuanyuan Zichen went to the military camp outside the city.
The 20,000 elite soldiers he brought from the King of Qi were placed here.
Several days have passed, and Xuanyuan Zichen has gone to inspect for the first time. After all, now that the country is safe and secure, there is no need for him to move troops, and there is nothing for him to worry about.
The tame camp was at the foot of a hill outside the city, and through the dense jungle, you could see a huge clearing.
Tent barracks were set up around, and the soldiers were scattered in different camps, practicing the exercises and sentry posts, performing their duties in an orderly manner.
Coming over today, Xuanyuan Zichen could clearly see that some veterans had changed their attitudes towards him. Especially a few small commanders, in the past, when they saw Xuanyuan Zichen, they would definitely come forward to say a few words of greeting, thanking Xuanyuan Zichen for their concern, but now they only greeted coldly, looking polite and distant.
It's all to be expected.
Entering the camp tent, the orthodox leader Situ Lei came to greet him.
"Lord Wang." Situ Lei clasped his arms with both hands and saluted Xuanyuan Zichen.
Xuanyuan Zichen took a slow sip of tea.
"Where's the lieutenant general?" Xuanyuan Zichen glanced outside the door and found that Li Nanxuan was not there, so he asked casually.
"Back to the prince, General Li is leading the first battalion to practice, and he will come later." Situ Lei reported truthfully. "If you have something, your subordinates will call him over."
"No, you don't." Xuanyuan Zichen called out to Situ Lei. "I'm just asking."
Situ Lei stood quietly in front of Xuanyuan Zichen, lowered his head, and stopped talking several times.
Xuanyuan Zichen had a keen mind, and naturally took in Situ Lei's appearance.
"Say whatever you want." Xuanyuan Zichen lowered his eyes and didn't look at Situ Lei.
He didn't say a word coldly, and he said it without any emotion, Situ Lei's heart was so stunned that he almost knelt on the ground in fright.
"Lord Wang." Situ Lei raised his head and tentatively observed Xuanyuan Zichen's reaction.
However, Xuanyuan Zichen's face was expressionless, and he couldn't see what his mood was at this time.
"The 20,000 elite soldiers you received from King Qi have been properly placed, but many veterans are not satisfied, thinking that you treat the recruits too well and cool their hearts. The subordinates thought that it was time to think about it, lest the army be unstable. Situ Lei's words were held back for a long time, and finally confided.
After all, he was judging Xuanyuan Zichen for doing things, and Situ Lei was still very empty in his heart.
Xuanyuan Zichen didn't respond in time, but leaned back on the back of the seat slowly, not knowing what he was thinking.
Situ Lei was nervous about this, and secretly pinched a cold sweat.
"Leave them alone, keep it like this." At the end, Xuanyuan Zichen ordered lightly.
