Chapter 34 Liu's
After the punishment, she still had doubts in her heart, so she took her close maid and added a car back to Xiao's Mansion. The chief butler answered the carriage at the door, and when he saw her return, he hurriedly bowed down to say goodbye.
Xiao Changying raised her hand, looked at him with an unkind face and asked, "The eldest prince is back?" β
"Yes, I came back on a horse, and I was soaking wet."
Xiao Changyuan had just bathed and changed his clothes, when he heard Xiao Changying's shouts outside, and then the door was pushed open, and the face of the person who came was extremely bad, and he asked repeatedly: "Which stupid thing under my command revealed the news to you, and you want to delay my good deeds like this!" β
He closed his eyelids and didn't lift them.
"I did all this for the sake of the Xiao family and your future! Big brother, look at what our house has become now? If you don't fight again, the whole family will sit in the cloth shop and drink the northwest wind! β
"For the Xiao family? Xiao Changying, are you doing those hurtful things for the sake of the Xiao family? If so, don't let this full future. He hooked his lips mockingly: "Besides, these things you have done are the disasters of the Xiao family, and I don't know." β
"You! You! You're so blind! She gritted her teeth with hatred and slapped her palm on the table, "I know that you have always looked down on me, but I want to tell you today that if you stand in my way again, I will not be soft on you, let's wait and see!" β
Xiao Changyuan sneered: "Get out!" β
"Xiao Changyuan, I advise you to be more deferential to me. Without you, the three princes have more candidates for military generals who can be supported. She laughed angrily, scrutinizing him slowly. Xiao Changyuan was most tired of her viper-like gaze, and when he raised his head, his gaze was extremely gloomy and impatient.
"I said you, shouldn't you have fallen in love with Miss Song Liu?"
As soon as he said this, Xiao Changyuan was furious and flipped the table. Seeing this, she hurriedly dodged, but her expression was similar to that of ruthlessness, but suddenly she laughed and said: "The Song family is the enemy, it is in my bag, big brother, you die before you think about it!" β
"Roll ββ!"
was attacked in the rain, and saw two people in the Xiao family who were very annoying, and Song Yansheng had been in a bad mood when he returned to Ensitang. As for why Xiao Changyuan appeared there, and why he went against Xiao Changying's intention to rescue her, she thought about it, if these two people didn't actually deal with each other, Xiao Changyuan would have hit his head stupidly. The next morning, she opened the quilt and came to receive the second girl of Yuan who rushed to the scene with two dark circles under her eyes.
Yuan Ying was startled when she looked like this, "What's the matter, didn't you sleep well?" β
Song Yansheng squinted, looked at her, and then looked at Duan Xun.
"Why are you here too?"
"I don't feel comfortable coming to see you." Duanxun is dressed in snow and has a white fan, and his face is beautiful and noble. She slapped his fingers, sat down on the chair angrily, and said, "My third brother is in the study, don't tease me anymore." β
"You girl." Duan Xun shook her fan, and when she saw that her face was slightly pale, she couldn't help but say: "Yesterday Jingyun came back to tell me that you were scared and in bad spirits, and I looked at it like this." β
"I saw someone I hated, and my heart was panicked."
Yuan Ying watched the two of you come and go back and forth on the side, holding her chin and asking curiously, "Nasty person?" β
"Those people from the Xiao family." Song Yansheng poured a cup of tea and handed it to her, while asking, "How is the arrangement of Qianyunju?" β
"Hey, I was about to tell you about this." Yuan Ying glanced at her cousin's face on the side, and said with a straight smile: "Xiao Changying is really ruthless, she just arranged people in last night, and after a while, someone from her subordinates came to report, saying that the person in Huayuelou was angry, sealed his throat with a knife, and died very happily." β
Really.
As the saying goes, knowing oneself and knowing one's opponent will not be defeated in a hundred battles. Xiao Changying has always done everything to achieve her goal, so how could she take the trouble to take a big risk to save an agent who doesn't matter to her? only took pity on the girl in Huayuelou, and was strangled in vain.
"Sixth Highness, it doesn't matter if your place is dirty, right?" Song Yansheng glanced at Duan Xun. According to his level of cleanliness, I don't think he will go to the Hidden Cloud Residence again.
Duan Xun glanced back at her, fanned one hand, and said casually, "If it's dirty, it's dirty, just throw it away." You two girls, count it on my head. He feigned anger, but what he didn't know, he didn't agree with Yuan Ting to arrange it.
She was suddenly in a much better mood, looking at his amazing appearance like Zhilan Mingyue, she smiled and said, "Then we can proceed smoothly to the next step." β
"But, hey, Little Liu, what about the string of jewels around your neck? Why is it gone? Yuan Ying was strange, the six girls wore this Yingluo collar every day on weekdays, and they didn't leave their bodies, but they didn't see it today.
Duan Xun also looked over, and there was really nothing on his small neck.
She was stunned for a moment, touched her neck, Cheng's mother found that this Yingluo was missing last night, she thought about it several times, but she couldn't remember where it was lost, but it was the most likely to fall in the woods. It was a heavy rainstorm and an assassin raid, and she could have accidentally broken somewhere, and she only vaguely remembered that she seemed to hear the sound of broken jade ticking and splashing. This colorful treasure is a very precious and brilliant thing, Cheng's mother went to look for it carefully according to what she said, but she didn't see it sporadically, and she only regretted that it was probably taken away by a lucky passer-by.
"I went out yesterday and fell off, and I couldn't find it, so I gave up." Song Yansheng said this, but he was a little distressed. It's not because of the preciousness of this Yingluo, but because it was given to her by her mother, and it was her mother's heart.
Yuan Ying didn't want to see her sad, so she took her hand and said boldly: "I have a few jewelry shops in my house, let's go shopping when we find time, and if I like it, I'll take it to you and give it to you, it's just a string of chains." β
She curled her lips and shook her head to decline her offer. Duan Xun stood next to her with a fan, his phoenix eyes drooped slightly, looking at her neck, but his expression was thoughtful.
The spies caught by Huayuelou brought back a total of two, one had been wiped out in Qianyunju, and the other was still in the Yuan family's dungeon, naively believing that her master would come to save her and protect her. Now that her companion is dead, does she dare to bet. If the two of them were put into Qianyunju together, then there would be two lives, just as Xiao Changying intended.
"Let her see what happened to her companion, I don't believe she still won't say anything."
To deal with a mere Liu, the pain of flesh and skin is already a numb for a prisoner, and it can still last for a few days, the fastest and most effective way is to destroy and collapse her spirit and stupid innocence.
Here, Xiao Changying searched for Qianyunju again according to Song Yansheng's hints, and this time he really found someone, and the killer sent felt that it was incredible. When she went back to tell the truth, Xiao Changying frowned and felt that something was wrong.
"You're saying that there's only one person locked up in Qianyun Curie? Not two people?! β
"Yes."
After the fire in Huayue Building, the manpower was counted, except for the accidental loss, the rest were clearly missing two people! One is the Liu family and the other is the Yu family, both of whom have been trained and raised as spies in Huayue Tower since childhood. These two people don't have any martial arts, so Xiao Changying didn't feel distressed at all when they killed them. Now the people under her command actually came back to tell her that there was only one Yu clan in Qianyunju?!
There's another guy thereββ!
Her eyelids jumped, and a bad premonition suddenly rose in her heart, something bad happened!
"You fools! Don't you know how to move your brains? Xiao Changying threw it out with a slap, shocked and undecided, pacing back and forth. She still underestimated Song Yansheng, judging from this development, this is clearly a game for her!
After another two days, Yuan Ying came to her and said that the Liu family had relented. When he arrived at the martial arts dungeon, the Liu family was already colorless compared to the fearless ones of the previous days.
Song Yansheng's appearance made her completely understand, in Xiao Changying's eyes, these secret agents who knew some secrets were already dead people the moment they were caught. There is absolutely no way for her to save herself, and killing people is the most effective and labor-saving way.
"She's been like this since she saw the body. After a few days of silence, this morning there was a clamoring to see us. Yuan Ying told her about the situation when she was on the road, and when she saw Liu, she pounced like a madwoman, grabbed the railing and said, "I said! I'll say everything! Just let me go, and I'll say anything! β
Her tone was urgent, obviously terrified, with a hint of flattery and pleading, she looked straight at Song Yansheng, raised her hand and swore several times:
"Nobleman, I say, if there is a lie, I, I will thunder in the sky!"
"That's enough, let's save some time, don't talk about what we don't have." Song Yansheng held his hat, and his voice was very weak, "As for whether what you said is true or false, we have our own judgment, and you don't want to be lucky." If there's one thing that's wrong, then you don't want to think of this place. β
"I say, I'll say it all!"
"Minions...... The minion's real name is Liu Xiuxiu, who was bought by Miss Xiao San, and has been working as a spy in Huayue Tower, responsible for collecting information and intelligence from the mouths of those nobles who visit the building, and passing it on to the bustard's mother, who is responsible for sorting it out to Miss Xiao. β
"So, the owner behind Huayue Tower is Xiao Changying?"
Liu Shi looked at her and bit her lip, shook her head and said, "Not all, there are other forces in the building, all of which are under the orders of the 'third master' in Miss Xiao's mouth, slave...... The slave had never seen this master, and only once overheard the bustard's mother talking. β
The "third master" in her mouth is naturally the third prince Duanhong, but the Liu family is just a small role, insignificant, and has not yet come into contact with those people at the top of the interests, it is just hearsay. Song Yan smiled, noncommittal, and motioned for her to continue.
"Long before the Begging Festival, the mother in the building had a lot of contact with Miss Xiao, as if she wanted to take action. The bustard is only responsible for arranging manpower, and refuses to disclose any other information. So the minions often went to eavesdrop, and heard that they were plotting to kill people on the day of the begging festival, so that Song Meiyong, the second master of the Song Mansion who often came to the building, would take the blame. β
