Chapter 76: Murder and Silence
In Zhao's room, the dark incense floated, and the light and darkness were mixed, reflecting on the bronze beast Ruijin incense burner in the center of the room.
At this time, Liu knelt tremblingly in front of Zhao. Facing Zhao's angry face, Liu's gaze dodged and couldn't make direct contact with Zhao.
"What did you just say, that Xia Chu peach saw everything?"
"Yes......"
Liu opened his mouth with a little weakness, in the end, Zhao had already ordered him to be secretive, but now he was just hit by Xia Chutao.
According to Fu Qingru's temperament, he may have already told Xia Chutao everything now. Thinking of this, Liu's heart was a little flustered, and if he didn't do what Zhao ordered to do well, the consequences would be serious.
"Look at what great things you can achieve, you can't even do such a simple thing."
The Zhao family was also speechless to the Liu family, when Xia Chutao and his party had just entered the Hou Mansion, she noticed that Fu Qingru had run out.
Originally, I told the Liu family to deal with it casually, as long as I didn't let that Fu Qingru be in front of Fu Rin now, this is good, and it completely bumped into Xia Chutao.
"If this matter is known to the general, you and I will not have any good fruit to eat."
Zhao glanced at Liu coldly, only thinking that she was not doing well, and stealing chickens would not make it a loss.
"Wouldn't it be nice for you to let her go back to where she lived, where did you come from so many things?"
Zhao was a little angry, and couldn't help but roll his eyes in front of Liu.
"Didn't I just want to teach my wife a lesson...... Madame, you don't know how many times you've been taught this hoof, but you don't have the consciousness to learn it at all. ”
Liu actually just wanted to be prestigious for a while, but now that Zhao is so angry, she can only be obedient.
"Huh."
Madame sneered and didn't take Liu's words to heart.
She just fanned the fan in her hand for a while, and her brows furrowed uncontrollably when she thought about it, and muttered to herself.
"Do you think that Xia Chutao will have told the general about this matter now?"
"I don't think so."
Liu immediately grabbed the words, wanting to make the situation sound more relaxed.
"In the end, Master Hou has been friends with the general in the officialdom for a long time, and he doesn't dare to go to the general to say this for no reason."
"First, it hurt the harmony between the Hou Ye and the general, and secondly, she has no evidence herself, so she probably can't speak."
Zhao still felt a little bit of truth when she heard Liu say this, she nodded, and then looked at Liu and said,
"In that case, then this matter will be left to you."
"Madame means ......"
Liu raised her head and asked hesitantly, she didn't know what Zhao meant.
"This is not simple, the dead will never speak."
There was a glimmer of light in Zhao's eyes, full of viciousness.
Liu Shi was frightened by Zhao's words, she hurriedly glanced around, and only after seeing that there were no outsiders did she lower her voice and say to Zhao,
"Madam, you are crazy, now the general and the early peach of Xia are in our Hou Mansion. If something happens, our Hou Mansion won't be able to get away with it at all......"
"Heh, you still don't believe you stupid, do you?"
Zhao sometimes just thinks that the woman in front of him is big-chested and brainless, and she came out of the Qinglou in the end, and she has no foresight and strategy at all.
The Zhao family looked down on the Liu family in his heart, if he didn't think that the Liu family still had some effect on being attached to him, how could she let the Hou Ye marry in such a woman?
"Your methods are obvious, and our Hou Mansion is naturally inseparable. But what if the peach at the beginning of summer accidentally died by herself? ”
Zhao smiled deeply, and Liu suddenly brightened.
Liu nodded hurriedly, she knew that it was Zhao's chance to atone for her sins.
"Thank you, Madame, I see."
"Well, it's good to get it."
Zhao took a sip of tea, then gently wiped the corners of his mouth with a handkerchief, and opened his mouth quietly.
"That's right."
Zhao seemed to have remembered something, and couldn't help but add more.
"Since the peach at the beginning of summer is dying, by the way, let's get rid of that slut. That slut was of little use by now. ”
"Yes......"
Although Liu's face was a little embarrassed, Zhao had already ordered her, and she could only do it.
"You'd better be nimble and clean."
"You must know that if you don't do this well, if Master Hou blames it, you won't be able to top a hundred heads."
Zhao slowly put his teacup back on the table, his tone sounding more like a threat.
"Yes, yes, I understand."
Liu's chick nodded as if pecking rice, and then retreated under Zhao's mocking gaze.
……
It was night, and Xia Chutao was walking aimlessly in the Hou Mansion alone.
As soon as dinner was over, Fu Rin and Na Xiangpinghou rushed into the study to discuss important matters.
Now that the border is in an emergency, most of the two of them are talking about the war between Dawan and Beizhao.
The Xiangping Marquis Mansion is not as good as the General's Mansion, and at the beginning of Xia, Tao was really bored and came out for a walk.
The night is as cool as water, and the evening breeze in the autumn season is even cooler, and at the beginning of summer, Tao walks back and forth in the Hou Mansion like a headless fly.
However, at this time, Xia Chutao seemed to hear a pair of strange sounds behind him.
"What sound?"
Xia Chutao turned her head a little suspiciously, but behind her was the same cold and deserted night scene as when she came.
Xia Chutao's own head couldn't help but muttered to herself.
"Maybe I misheard ......"
After thinking about the early summer peach, continue to walk forward slowly. If Xia Chutao is not mistaken, this is the garden of the Hou Mansion in the past.
But at this time, the strange sound behind him sounded again, and Xia Chutao turned back vigilantly again but still didn't see anything.
Xia Chutao thought carefully in his heart, and the sound he heard seemed to be the sound of clothes flapping in the wind.
"Is it possible...... Is it human? ”
An extremely terrifying thought exploded in Xia Chutao's heart, and now that there is no one around, Xia Chutao's heart is also beginning to panic.
She focused on her surroundings, but saw nothing.
The more mysterious it is, the more nervous Xia Chutao becomes.
After all, the enemy is in the dark, and she is in the light. Xia Chutao didn't know what this person wanted to do behind him.
"Who is it? Come out! I've seen you. ”
Xia Chutao didn't see anyone for a long time, so she plucked up the courage to shout to the surroundings.
However, it was still quiet, except for the leaves swaying in the evening breeze.
At the beginning of Xia, Momo's heart was pinched, and a layer of fine sweat couldn't help but appear on her forehead.
I don't know who the other party is, and Xia Chutao doesn't know if she can solve it.
This is the first time that Xia Chutao felt in his heart how good it would be if Fu Rin was by his side......
At this time, the strange voice sounded behind Xia Chutao again.
"Little Peach, be careful!"
"He's behind you!"
"Little Peach, run!"
Xia Chutao didn't see everything behind him clearly, but the fans saw it clearly, and shouted in the barrage one after another.
After hearing what fans said, Xia Chutao subconsciously wanted her body to react immediately.
But he still couldn't beat the people behind him, and before Xia Chutao could dodge his steps, he felt that he was being pushed heavily behind his back.
This was followed by a cold tingling sensation in the back of his neck.
Early summer peach: !!
Fans: it! Little Peach! Be careful!
Xia Chutao was pushed by the man, and the whole person fell to the side uncontrollably.
Xia Chutao's heart panicked, but he couldn't stabilize his body that had lost his center of gravity at all.
At the beginning of the summer, Momo's body fell straight backwards into the pool behind her.
"Save ......"
Xia Chutao opened her eyes wide and wanted to call for help, but she couldn't speak because she opened her mouth wide.
She could see the man in black standing by the pool, watching her fall into the water with his hands behind his back, with a wicked smile in his eyes.
"Plop—"
With a bang, Xia Chutao's entire body fell into the water, and he could feel the cold pool water in the autumn overflowing his head, really covering his entire face, followed by a complete feeling of suffocation.
"Little Peach!"
"Isn't Little Peach a swimmer?"
"Oh my God, why is she still motionless?"
At the beginning of summer, Tao could see the barrage of her fans caring about her passing over her head one by one.
But at this time, it was not that she couldn't swim, but that she found that her limbs were very stiff and couldn't even move.
"What's going on......"
At the beginning of summer, Tao couldn't help but feel the stinging sensation in the back of her neck before she was pushed into the water.
Thinking about it this way, she knows her body, and she is afraid that she will be manipulated by others.
"It seems that someone is intent on killing her......
She was like a solid scale, and she could only sink into the water......
Xia Chutao desperately watched the moonlight above her head getting farther and farther away from her, and under the sparkling reflection was her dull and numb face.
"Am I going to die here......"
Xia Chutao couldn't help but think so in her heart, and her heart was very desperate.
And at this time, all she could think of in her mind was Fu Rin's cold face.
"Fu Rin......"
Xia Chutao silently recited Fu Rin's name in her heart, and she wanted in her heart how good it would be to be able to see him one last time before she died......
But Xia Chutao could feel the water in her body getting farther and farther away, and she could only slowly close her eyes......
