Chapter Thirty-Nine: The Killer
Chapter Thirty-Nine: The Killer
Wan Qing couldn't help laughing a few times and said:
"Spare you once, it's not a pity for people like you to die, and dare to talk to me next time, I tell you, no one who offends Young Master Ben will end well, and the same is true for the two of you."
When Lang Zhong from the pharmacy heard Wan Qing's words, his face suddenly panicked, he looked at his wife and said:
"Madame, I'm sorry! It's all my fault, I knew that this Wan Qing was a person who went back on his word, and I wouldn't tell him about Qin Meiniang even if I died. “
Wan Qing immediately pulled out the knife from the guard on the side, and slashed towards the body of the medicine shop Langzhong, with a "click" sound.
The knife in Wan Qing's hand hacked Lang Zhong of the pharmacy to death on the spot, and his body suddenly oozed blood.
When Lang Zhong's wife saw this, she was immediately frightened and fainted, her face pale, but how could Wan Qing spare her?
I saw Wan Qing slashing at Lang Zhong's wife's head again, and immediately hacked her to death, and the hot blood suddenly spurted out like spring water, spraying on Wan Qing's face and body.
Wan Qing immediately dodged away and said with a vicious face:
"Humph! This is the end of going against me Wan Qing, I will let you all die well. “
Wan Qing immediately wiped the blood stains off his face, threw the knife in his hand on the ground, and said to the guards on the side:
"Leave two people to deal with the corpse, remember, you must dispose of the corpse and the scene, don't let people leave any handles, and then post a seal, seal the pharmacy here, and the rest of the people will hurry out of the city with me to chase the queen mother and her party, we must follow Qin Meiniang closely, as long as I have a chance, I will arrest her back for me."
The guards on the side immediately said in unison:
"Yes, young master."
Wan Qing immediately took a large number of guards to the neighborhood horse shop to grab some horses, and then rode a horse to go out of Kyoto City to chase the queen and her party.
The two guards who stayed behind carried the bodies of Lang Zhong and his wife to the backyard, picked up some yellow weeds at the back of the house, threw them on their corpses, and then lit them with fire, burned all the bodies of the two people, and finally cleaned the scene, and hurried out of the door of the pharmacy, locked the door, pasted the seal prepared in advance, and then swaggered away.
Qin Meiniang followed the queen mother and her party out of Kyoto City soon, and the guards at the city gate also let them go directly and did not dare to stop them.
After leaving Kyoto City, the queen mother immediately opened the curtain of the sedan chair and said to Qin Meiniang:
"Mei Niang! You get into the sedan chair and sit, don't go, it's very tiring to walk, there are a lot of people in the city, I can't let you sit in my sedan chair, now it's okay, it's okay to get out of Kyoto City. “
Qin Meiniang was also shocked when she suddenly heard the queen's words, she was just a civilian girl, how dare she think of sitting in the phoenix sedan chair with the queen!
Qin Meiniang hurriedly shook her head at the queen, "Niangniang, I'm not tired, I like to go, how dare I sit in a sedan chair with you!" I'm not going to sit down. “
The queen mother suddenly said with a serious face:
"If I ask you to come up and sit, you can come up and sit, don't get in the way of any status, besides, this is not in the palace, where there are so many rules, you can get into the sedan chair and sit with me."
Qin Meiniang still didn't dare to get on the sedan chair, "Niangniang, I'm really fine, I'm actually quite able to walk, we country girls are not afraid of getting tired, I'm walking like this very well." “
The queen couldn't help but turn her face sideways and said:
"Oops! I don't have a sedan chair, and I can sit down, so you don't have to walk, come up! Otherwise, I will let the guard carrying the sedan chair stop, and I will personally pull you into the sedan chair, besides, I still have something to tell you, you can get on the sedan chair quickly. “
As soon as Qin Meiniang heard that the queen insisted on doing so, she couldn't refuse, so she had to go into the queen mother's phoenix sedan chair.
As soon as I got into this phoenix sedan chair, I really blinded Qin Meiniang's eyes, and I saw that the decorations inside the phoenix sedan chair were all golden and brilliant foreheads, which were very eye-catching, and the phoenix pattern embroidered on the seat was very eye-catching.
The queen mother took Qin Meiniang's hand and said:
"Sit down."
Qin Meiniang immediately sat with the queen mother, the things she had dreamed of were actually met by her in reality, and she was really flattered to be able to get such unhesitating help from the queen mother.
The queen mother said to Qin Meiniang:
"It's good for you to accompany me to Lingyin Temple to incense in a while, and when the incense is finished, I will send guards to escort you home, what do you think?"
Qin Meiniang was stunned for a moment, since the queen mother had spoken, she couldn't refuse, so she had to nod and agree, "Well, then Mei Niang will accompany the mother to Lingyin Temple to make incense and then go back." “
The queen mother nodded happily and said:
"Okay, don't look sad, don't worry, since I promised you to find Liu Feng and bring him back to see you, then I will definitely fulfill my promise, so don't worry about his safety."
Qin Meiniang sighed:
"Niangniang, I'm not afraid of anything else, I'm just afraid that Liu Feng will be arrested by Wan Qing's people, that Wan Qing is ruthless, I'm afraid he will ......"
The queen then said:
"Don't worry, even if Liu Feng is captured by Wan Qing, he won't kill him so soon, if Wan Qing kills Liu Feng, then how will he know your whereabouts? Therefore, Liu Feng was at most tortured by Wan Qing, so that he would not be killed so quickly, and when I finished the incense, I made a special trip to Wan Qing's house to investigate, if Liu Feng was really arrested by him, then I will let Wan Qing release him, and then, I will have someone escort him out of the city to meet you. “
Qin Meiniang was full of excitement and said:
"Well, thank you Niangniang for helping, you have helped me so many times, and you have saved me, and now you have to help me rescue Liu Feng, your great kindness, I really don't know how to repay it, you are really better than the Bodhisattva."
The queen couldn't help but smile, "You don't always say that the Bodhisattva is a Bodhisattva, I'm not a Bodhisattva, how dare I compare with the Bodhisattva?" There is a saying that doesn't just say, save people and save them to the end, and send the Buddha to the West! As the queen, these little things are nothing, and I can't bear to watch the emperor's subjects suffer. ”
Qin Meiniang admired the queen very much in her heart, and was impressed by her personality and kindness.
"Calm down and think about it, if it wasn't for the mother who rescued me from Wanqing's mansion, I guess I don't know if I'm alive or dead now, this Wanqing is really bold in Kyoto City, doing nonsense, why didn't the queen mother inform the emperor, or the prime minister, and let them discipline this Wanqing well?" Qin Meiniang couldn't help but sigh.
The queen also breathed a sigh of relief and said:
"Don't you know, this emperor actually knows about Wan Qing's evil deeds in Kyoto City, but every time the emperor sends someone to check on him, he can always escape accountability, and because of the face of Prime Minister Wan Jinbao, he has always been able to tolerate Wan Qing's actions, and this prime minister is also Wan Qing's son, he must protect him with all his might, so now if you want to dispose of Wan Qing for a while, it is really a little difficult to do, after all, this prime minister has merit to the imperial court, and he can't do anything to him."
