The Nine Kings sat leisurely in the courtyard, but their eyes were not at all kind.

He stared at the Guan City Lord kneeling on the ground, and even revealed danger.

The city lord was trembling, and the city lord's wife was standing aside in despair, and there was Ji Rou next to her.

Nine Kings' eyes narrowed, and every word was full of coldness: "Guan City Lord, if King Zhao knows that you want to murder me, what do you say King Zhao will do with you?" ”

The Guan City Lord suddenly began to kowtow down, his forehead was already swollen, obviously he had kowtowed before.

Bang, the head finally broke a blood mark on the blue jade slab, and the city lord continued to kowtow to ask for forgiveness with a head of blood.

Redwaist stood at the door and wondered, why was he so afraid of the Nine Kings?

She saw that the two willow trees in the courtyard had completely withered, and the so-called aroma was not smelled, but a faint smell wafted from the end of her nose.

If even a sluggish person like Red Waist could smell it, then the other people in the courtyard must have smelled a foul smell.

The white-faced coachman was looking at the Guan City Lord aggressively: "This flower fragrance and strange poison are produced in the Western Regions, and only the Chen Kingdom bordering the Western Regions has it, where did you get it with the intention of murdering Your Highness, and you still don't recruit it." ”

It is rare to see the white-faced coachman reprimand people like this, although he is always cold, but because of this, if he says so many words like today, it will have a strange feeling.

The city lord of Guan burst into tears: "Please ask His Royal Highness the Nine Kings to believe in Xiaguan, Xiaguan really doesn't know anything." ”

It's pitiful to see him like that, and maybe I'll believe him if I change to someone else.

But the Nine Kings and the white-faced coachman, the red waist finally walked out of the door, and slowly came to stand beside the Nine Kings, and the Nine Kings just glanced at her, and then continued to look at the Guan City Lord on the ground.

Seeing the red waist so naturally walking over and standing beside the Nine Kings, there was something in her eyes that flashed with emotion.

The city lord choked up and said: "The news that His Royal Highness the Nine Kings is coming, the lower officials didn't know in advance, before that, the lower officials have been guarding the Chili City and have not come out, and His Royal Highness can go and ask the city generals to guard the officials." How could the lower officials prepare all these many things in the half hour of the arrival of His Royal Highness the Nine Kings, not to mention the poisoning on the willow tree, the lower officials would never dare to do it, please ask His Royal Highness the Nine Kings to take a clear look...... Spare the officials! ”

The words of the lord of the city are true and emotional, and he has the ability to make those who see it sad and those who hear it cry.

The red waist said in his heart, I heard the Nine Kings move out of King Zhao as a threat just now, it seems that this threat is not groundless, if King Zhao knows about this matter, King Zhao will really deal with the Guan City Lord for the sake of the Nine Kings, so the Guan City Lord is so afraid?

However, why did King Zhao dispose of his own lord of a city for the sake of a prince of Wei?

The eyes of the red waist widened, because she suddenly saw the city lord's wife and kneel beside the city lord, and said with tears in her eyes: "Your Royal Highness the Nine Kings, before you came, my husband and I had been living in this courtyard, and when I heard you coming, I immediately moved out. Maybe it was because the previous subordinates had a disagreeable look at the concubine couple, and the secret revenge led to today's sake......"

The city lord's wife had been standing next to her without speaking, thinking that she didn't want to care about the life or death of the city lord, but at this time, she suddenly begged for mercy, and her eyes were even more tearful, looking very sincere.

Looking at the situation of the willow tree, it is already a certainty that the poison was poisoned, but if the poison was not used to murder the Nine Kings, but the Guan City Lord and his wife were the victims, the Nine Kings just happened to live in...... Regardless of the truth, this reason is quite clever.

The red waist couldn't help but look at the city lord's wife differently, it seems that she is really unattractive, and the nine kings are so inconsistent, this city lord's wife is plain, but she doesn't have such a smart look at all.

There was an embarrassing silence in the courtyard, and the low laughter of the Nine Kings came out, and the Guan City Lord seemed to be blinded.

After a while, the Nine Kings smiled and said, "It sounds like there is some truth. ”

One sentence of heaven, one sentence of hell.

The Guan City Lord fell to the ground and trembled with excitement, and he was almost grateful to Dade: "Thank you, Your Highness the Nine Kings!" Thank you, Your Highness the Nine Kings! ”

The city lord's wife suddenly took a step on her knees, looked directly at the nine kings and said: "Your Highness, the concubine suddenly remembered that there was indeed a servant girl in the past, who was fled by Chen Guo, and because the concubine saw her pitiful, so she was taken in." Unexpectedly, she secretly held a grudge against the concubine, and wanted to poison the concubine, it didn't matter if the concubine was a cheap life, but she almost implicated His Royal Highness the Nine Kings, today everything is the fault of the concubine, His Royal Highness the Nine Kings is now cutting off the concubine, and the concubine is also willing to eat! ”

The red waist was stunned from the sidelines, but fortunately, at this time, the Nine Kings held her hand and took advantage of the situation to stand up from the chair.

I saw the Nine Kings slowly pacing in front of him and his wife, with an unpredictable smile on the corner of his mouth: "Oh? It's such a coincidence, is there really a spy of Chen Guo in the mansion? ”

The city lord's wife looked at the robes of the nine kings close at hand, her neck moved, and said: "Actually, if it weren't for the fact that His Royal Highness the Nine Kings just mentioned, the concubine body would have forgotten it, and the slave and maid Ping Suri looked honest and made the concubine lose her guard, otherwise there would be no disaster today." ”

The Nine Kings laughed low again, as if they were really happy, a matter of poisoning and murder, so a few words pushed it onto a servant girl, "Then what are you waiting for, call that servant girl out and let this king see it." ”

The city lord's wife immediately raised her head, as if she had received a pardon: "His Royal Highness Xie Jiuwang forgives, that cheap maid is in this courtyard now, and the concubine will call her out immediately!" ”

The red waist jumped in his heart, and he saw a sharp eye of the city lord's wife sweeping towards the crowd, in the crowd, a woman wearing a cloth dress and a green hairpin turned pale, and she subconsciously wanted to escape, but was grabbed by the shoulders by the two strong men next to her and grabbed in front of the nine kings.

The city lord's wife said sharply: "His Royal Highness the Nine Kings also dare to be presumptuous in front of him!" Don't kneel yet! ”

The servant girl knelt and knelt, but unfortunately her face was pale, and her lips and teeth were clenched tightly and she didn't speak.

The Nine Kings squinted their eyes and looked the servant girl up and down, the corners of their mouths hooked, and they seemed to be quite interested.

Somehow, suddenly that Ji Rou stepped out and slapped the servant girl in the face, "What a cheap maid, I dare to harm His Royal Highness the Nine Kings, just throw you to the ant room without leaving a whole corpse!" ”

No one would have thought that this Ji Rou would be so vicious, and she would be beaten to a woman as big as her, bleeding from the corner of her nose and half of her cheeks.

The red waist faintly felt that something was wrong, it stands to reason that even if the character is forbearing, he should not be silent when he is treated like this, and this maid really didn't make a sound at all. There were a lot of tears.

The red waist could see that something was wrong, and Jiuwang Yan couldn't see it, he smiled softly, and instructed the white-faced coachman: "Coachman, break her mouth for this king." ”

The white-faced coachman immediately stood in front of the maidservant, pressed one hand on her cheeks, pinched and twisted, and the maid's mouth opened widely.

Suddenly, the red waist facing her was a gasp.

The servant girl had nothing in her mouth, not even her tongue.

No wonder she hasn't made a sound since just now, no tongue, how she speaks.

Even the red waist felt how cruel, and the Nine Kings sighed lightly: "This Chen State spy is actually a dumb person, but this king can't even speak." ”

The city lord's wife immediately kowtowed to the nine kings: "Please Your Highness be clear, this cheap maid is from the border of Chen State, if you don't see her pitiful, how can the concubine be deceived by her, if Your Highness doesn't believe it, you can torture all the people in my mansion, and you can testify that this maid is not from our Zhao country." ”

Red Waist almost immediately remembered that on the night when he first came, the white-faced coachman said to the Nine Kings that all the servants and maids in this courtyard were temporarily found to make up the number, and the Nine Kings did not break it, but now the city lord's wife said that all the servants and maids in the courtyard could prove that this dumb girl was Chen Guolai's spies, but they didn't know what the confirmation was for her.

The Nine Kings also seemed to have forgotten what the white-faced coachman had said, his eyes fell on the mute girl, and he smiled faintly: "In this way, it is the family matter of the city lord, but the city lord should also deal with it well, after all, this crime of harboring Chen Guo's spies, if King Zhao knows about it, I am afraid that it will inevitably be angry." ”

Guan Cheng's face immediately changed, and he fell to the ground and kowtowed: "His Royal Highness Xie Jiuwang's suggestion, His Royal Highness Xie Jiuwang's suggestion, Xiaguan disposed of this girl today, and in addition, he expressed his feelings, asked the king for guilt, and hoped that His Royal Highness would be gracious." ”

The Nine Kings smiled: "That's it, since the city lord has this intention, this king will not meddle in his affairs, after all, this is the internal affairs of the Zhao Kingdom." ”

The relieved red waist in the corner of the city lord's eyes was in her eyes, but she couldn't help but look at the "Chen Guo spy", compared to the Guan City Lord's joy, the city lord's wife was as secretive as deep, Ji Rou's faint pride, and the red waist felt that this "Chen Guo spies" was the most pitiful.

Ji Rou suddenly stood up and said to the city lord and the city lord's wife: "City lord, madam, please allow the slave maid to deal with this slut of the Chen Kingdom, and also do your part for His Royal Highness the Nine Kings." ”

As she spoke, her eyes glanced at the Nine Kings coquettishly.

The Guan City Lord was upset at the moment, waved his hand and said, "I'll leave it to you, I want this cheap maid to know well." ”

Ji Rou's eyebrows fluttered, and said: "Please rest assured, the slave and maid will hang this spy on the city wall when the time comes, and let King Zhao see the city lord's loyalty." ”

The lord of the city seemed to be satisfied when he heard this, and cast an approving glance at Ji Rou.

It's a big show, the red waist only has this feeling in his heart, the nine kings have spared no effort to cooperate, and the "Chen Guo spies" seem to be the only victims.

After a long time, when noon was almost there, the "spies" were dragged away from the courtyard, and the city lord commanded people to burn the willow trees in the courtyard, and only bare black was left on the ground, so the city lord's wife asked someone to bring a few pots of magnolia and put them on the scorched ground, but they still couldn't cover the surrounding wilt.
