Chapter Ninety-Four: A Desperate Shot
Hearing this, Liu Zhongquan also realized the seriousness of the situation, and said solemnly: "Okay, this official immediately packs up and sets off for Micheng!" β
In Micheng, Zhao Hengzhi cocked Erlang's legs, sat on the chair leisurely and calmly and knocked melon seeds, he believed that Yao Yuran would come back soon, and when the time came, the Wang and Fang families would definitely be ruined.
At that time, Zhao Hengzhi suddenly heard another noisy sound in the yamen, Zhao Hengzhi's back was cold, and a trace of foreboding ignited in his heart.
He was about to go out to find out, but he saw Ah Da running in with a blue nose and a swollen face, crying with a sad face, and trembling: "Oh no, Second Young Master, Wang Zhongsheng and Fang Lianqing are back again!" β
Zhao Hengzhi frowned, and asked rhetorically, "Killed back?" Are they not ready to raise money to bribe me? β
"No, they said they wanted to arrest you back, Second Young Master! They are more at ease! Ah Da replied nervously.
Zhao Hengzhi secretly screamed that it was not good, this Wang Zhongsheng and Fang Lianqing were even smarter than he imagined, they must have realized that he was deceiving them!
At this moment, Wang Zhongsheng broke in with more than a dozen domestic servants, and Wang Zhongsheng sneered and said, "Zhao Hengzhi, do you really think that we are so easy to deceive?" Lao Tzu won't be fooled by you! β
Zhao Hengzhi saw that the situation was not good, and he hurriedly shouted at the top of his voice, "Junjun, Chu Xiao come and save me, I am besieged by them!" Help, help! β
Ye Junjun and Chu Xiao, who were watering vegetables in the mountain behind the yamen, heard Zhao Hengzhi's cry for help, hurriedly put down the scoop in their hands, and rushed in to the back door, only to see Zhao Hengzhi being chased by others, and Zhao Hengzhi was only holding a dustpan in his hand to avoid the pursuit of those servants.
Ye Junjun saw that the weak and bullying Zhao Hengzhi was besieged, and aroused his pity for the jade, so he pointed to the ground on tiptoe, flew forward, and came to Zhao Hengzhi's side.
"Brother Hengzhi, don't be afraid, I'll protect you!" Ye Junjun shouted, and hurriedly pulled out a sharp sword, the sharp sword was unsheathed, and the sword shone brightly in the sun.
Those servants were stopped by Ye Junjun's sword, and no one dared to step forward.
"What are you afraid of, she's just a woman! Give it to me! Wang Zhongsheng scolded, and he kicked a servant's ass directly.
The servants had to lift their big knives and swarmed towards Zhao Hengzhi and Ye Junjun.
"Hmph, dare to bully my future daughter-in-law, live impatiently!" Before Ye Junjun could make a move, Chu Xiao had already appeared in front of them at lightning speed.
Chu Xiao waved the paper fan in his hand, and the dust on the ground instantly rolled up, and the servants standing opposite them raised their knives, but they were defeated by Chu Xiao one by one, and in the blink of an eye, Chu Xiao had beaten seven or eight domestic servants to a bruised nose and swollen face, lying on the ground crying and calling for his mother.
Seeing this, the other servants were frightened and didn't dare to step forward easily, for fear of being killed by Chu Xiao.
"Chu Xiao is great!" Ye Junjun cast a reverent look at Chu Xiao, and he was so crazy that he couldn't extricate himself.
"Thank you, Lord Chu!" Zhao Hengzhi pinched a cold sweat, he almost lost his life, thanks to Ye Junjun and Chu Xiao's timely action, he breathed a sigh of relief.
At this time, Fang Lianqing rushed to the compound of the yamen with another group of people. The number of people in Fang Lianqing's belt was twice as large as Wang Zhongsheng's, and they were all fierce and vicious, and they looked menacing.
Chu Xiao recognized that several of the people and horses brought by Fang Lianqing were from the Spirit Fire Sect, and those people should be more difficult to deal with than these straw bale servants.
Zhao Hengzhi was dumbfounded, in this case, I am afraid that it will be more than lucky! Zhao Hengzhi was so frightened that his legs became weak and he trembled. Chu Xiao and Ye Junjun's foreheads also broke out in cold sweat, in this case, the enemy soldiers on the opposite side were overwhelming, but I was afraid that it was a little difficult.
Chu Xiao's expression was cold, and he whispered to Ye Junjun: "Junjun, you take Lord Zhao to go first, and I will deal with it!" β
"No, I can't leave you alone, we should share the weal and the woe! Together! Ye Junjun shook his head violently, resolutely refusing to take Zhao Hengzhi to leave first.
"None of you are allowed to leave!" Fang Lianqing shouted sharply, a chill flashed in his eyes, and he shouted to the person behind him: "Up!" β
Capture the thief and capture the king first, Chu Xiao moved instantly, his goal was clear, and he rushed towards the fat-headed and big-eared Wang Zhongsheng. Wang Zhongsheng saw Chu Xiao attacking him, and hurriedly retreated backwards, but unfortunately, it was only in vain to do so, Chu Xiao stretched out his long arm, choked Wang Zhongsheng's throat, and controlled Wang Zhongsheng in his own hands.
"If you want to live, let them stay still!" Chu Xiao whispered in Wang Zhongsheng's ear.
Wang Zhongsheng was so frightened that his buttocks were urinating, and he hurriedly shouted loudly: "You guys...... Stop! Don't move! Wang Zhongsheng was afraid that if he was not careful, his life would be ruined in Chu Xiao's hands.
When the thugs and servants saw this, they all looked at each other and did not dare to act rashly. But Fang Lianqing was also worried, in this case, it was even more difficult to catch Zhao Hengzhi. That Wang Zhongsheng is also his in-laws, and he doesn't dare to rashly throw away his life.
But Fang Lianqing was not ready to withdraw, and still stood in place, stalemate with Chu Xiao and them.
"Exit the yamen, or I will kill him!" Chu Xiao threatened in a cold voice. As soon as these words came out, Wang Zhongsheng's lips trembled in fright, and he said, "Why are you still stunned?" Get out of here! β
Fang Lianqing stood still, he raised his eyebrows, and said to Chu Xiao: "Chu Xiao, didn't you cooperate with us before and send a killer from the world downstairs to assassinate Zhao Hengzhi?" So at this time, he helped Zhao Hengzhi in turn? β
When Zhao Hengzhi and Ye Junjun heard Fang Lianqing's words, they immediately froze. I didn't expect Chu Xiao to do such a despicable thing behind their backs!
"Lord Zhao, don't listen to their nonsense, they are deliberately sowing discord, and I was just trying to trick them for a sum of money. Besides, didn't all those killers fail? Chu Xiao tried to defend himself.
"This ......" Zhao Hengzhi hesitated, he remembered the Tang Sanbao who poisoned the mung bean porridge, if it weren't for Yao Yuran's cleverness, he was afraid that it would affect the innocent lives in the yamen. There is also the old woman who knows how to disguise, she almost killed her master, and at the last moment, it was Yao Yuran who saw through the killer's tricks.
"Chu Xiao, you tell me the truth, are they telling the truth?" Ye Junjun looked at Chu Xiao with eyes like a torch, her eyes were filled with tears, she had always believed in Chu Xiao's character, and she couldn't believe that Chu Xiao would do such a thing against her conscience!
Chu Xiao opened his mouth, his throat seemed to be stuck by a fish bone, he knew that Ye Junjun had always been a person who loved and hated, and was jealous and hateful, but now, what he had done was exposed, making him have no face to face Ye Junjun.
"You speak, don't lie to me, you must tell me the truth!" Ye Junjun frowned coldly, she held back the tears that were about to fall, at this moment her heart turned a thousand times, she wanted to know the truth, but she was afraid to know the truth, she didn't want to hear him admit in person those despicable things he had done.
Chu Xiao thought about the wording, and then said slowly: "Lord Zhao, I admit that I did collude with them at that time, they spent money to find me to hire killers from the downstairs of the world, but the ones I sent out were all bronze-level killers from the downstairs of the world, and those killers were all old, weak, sick and disabled, and they could not pose a threat at all." β
"What? Bronze-level killer? Or some old and sick? Wang Zhongsheng's eyes widened, and he was so angry that he felt as if he had been deceived.
"Ohβthat's a bit of a conscience." Ye Junjun's frowning brows relaxed, thinking about it carefully, those killers were indeed too easy to deal with. And with her understanding of Chu Xiao, Chu Xiao is a master who sees money, and it is also his criterion in business.
"Will you forgive me, then?" Chu Xiao stared at him, he could not do anything, but Ye Junjun was the person on the tip of his heart, and he didn't want to lose Ye Junjun's love for him.
"Well, I'll talk about it later." Ye Junjun snorted, the current dominance is in her hands.
"Hey! Can you stop talking about love, we are planning to take Zhao Hengzhi away seriously! Fang Lianqing realized that he seemed to be being played by the two of them.
"I have Wang Zhongsheng in my hands, if you don't want him to die, just quit obediently!" Chu Xiao's eyes were cold, and he increased the strength of his hand again, Wang Zhongsheng was choked by him, and his face turned red.
"Ahem, ahem! Fang Lianqing, you are ...... Let them step back ......" Wang Zhongsheng finally squeezed these words out of his throat.
Fang Lianqing tightened his brows, but he didn't move half a step, if he retreated at this time, he didn't catch Zhao Hengzhi. I'm afraid that when the people from Fucheng come, their lives will be even more difficult to protect.
"Hurry......" Wang Zhongsheng was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot, but Fang Lianqing was unmoved.
"Lord Yanagi has arrived!" A loud voice came from outside, Fang Lianqing and Wang Zhongsheng's hearts were like ashes, they knew that this was the end!
When Chu Xiao heard the voice, he hurriedly let go of Wang Zhongsheng's throat, Lord Hengzhu Liu had already come, and when the time came, they would definitely not be able to escape the punishment of the law.
"Husband, I'm here!" A soft female voice sounded, and Yao Yuran walked out of the back door of the yamen lobby, she was dusty and dressed as a son.
"Kiss the lady, come and save me! They bastards, they want to take their husbands away as hostages, huh! When Zhao Hengyi saw Yao Yuran appear, his eyes were full of tears, and he cried to her about the tragic things he had encountered.
"Husband, don't be afraid, with me, I will never let them touch a single hair of you!" Yao Yuran comforted softly.
"Yes, it's Wang Zhongsheng and Fang Lianqing, two old guys! They are simply too arrogant and excessive, and they even led people to trespass on the yamen, which is a heinous crime and unforgivable! Ye Junjun was furious and complained to Yao Yuran.
As soon as Yao Yuran heard that Fang Lianqing and Wang Zhongsheng were making trouble in the yamen with a group of subordinates, he was angry and scolded: "Okay! You two old fellows, dare to make things difficult for my husband while I am away, see how I clean you up! β
