Text Chapter 47 Killers
The old lady and Xiao Shuyong had no way to stop Xiao Lingxiao's actions at this time, so she swaggered back to the Prime Minister's Mansion with more than 20 guards of unknown origin. Although it was late at night, the news of Xiao Lingxiao's return to the Prime Minister's Mansion still spread all at once. The eldest lady learned that Xiao Lingxiao had returned to Qinghe Courtyard directly with her own guards, and hurriedly dressed up and came to Xianglin Courtyard.
In the Xianglin Courtyard, Xiao Shuyong and the old lady had very heavy faces, and when the eldest lady saw them like that, she knew that the trip between the two of them must not be smooth. But after all, Xiao Lingxiao has returned, so it means that there will be no problem with her marriage with Su Donghan.
"Mother, Ling Xiao's dowry, I have already counted it with a few housekeepers......"
Before the eldest lady finished speaking, she saw the old lady raise her hand, interrupt her, her eyebrows tightened, she looked up at Xiao Shuyong, and said in a deep voice, "This girl must not step out of the gate of the Prime Minister's Mansion!" Shu Yong, find a way to kill her! ”
Xiao Shuyong was also thinking about this matter along the way, what Xiao Lingxiao said to them was already a naked threat, let her live, whether it was for the Xiao family or for them personally, it was definitely very unfavorable to her, and now the best solution is not to let her marry out immediately, but to let her die quietly in the Prime Minister's Mansion! As long as this person is dead, it will be useless to say anything no matter who says it at that time. King Mude and the emperor would never go against the Xiao family for a dead person.
"It's just that the guards she brought back are not easy to deal with...... "This is the most troublesome thing for Xiao Shuyong."
"Then send more people! Not a single living mouth is allowed to be left! Don't let the news leak out! The old lady roared angrily, as if she had gone mad.
Xiao Shuyong didn't dare to say anything more, and hurriedly took the eldest lady out of the Xianglin Courtyard. After coming out, the eldest doctor opened his mouth to ask what happened to them in the Lu Mansion, but Xiao Shuyong was tight-lipped and didn't tell the eldest lady anything, just asked her if there was a way to kill Xiao Lingxiao quietly.
The eldest lady lowered her head and thought for a long time, if she wanted to say a way to kill people silently, she could have as many as she wanted, but she looked up at Xiao Shuyong, who was full of annoyance, and finally decided to make a frightened look, pretending to be a little afraid, and asked softly, "Master, Ling Xiao is your biological daughter, the eldest daughter of the Xiao family, she is disobedient, as long as she is disciplined, why kill her?" ”
Xiao Shuyong said angrily when he heard this, "That little beast is not my daughter!" She's my enemy! ”
The eldest lady sighed regretfully, as if she couldn't bear to see Xiao Shuyong and Xiao Lingxiao's father and daughter turn against each other, and persuaded a few more words before leaving.
After she left, Xiao Shuyong immediately went to the study and quietly summoned his confidants to discuss how to deal with the matter.
In the Qinghe Courtyard, Narcissus and the others who were originally serving here had already returned to the eldest lady, and the demon wolves brought back by Xiao Lingxiao were all guarding around the Qinghe Courtyard.
Bao Rong'er and Xiao Lingxiao entered the inner room and found that there was not even a bed here, Bao Rong'er frowned and asked, "Master, we came back like this, we were in a hurry, right?" ”
Xiao Lingxiao sat down at the table and muttered, "That guy Fengming, I don't know where to go in the middle of the night." Bao Rong'er, you go back to Lu Mansion and wait for him in a while, and then tomorrow you will send back the things you need here. We won't be going back to the Lu Mansion for the time being, so it's better for people to clean up. ”
Bao Rong'er nodded and asked again, "But ...... Where will the master sleep tonight? ”
Xiao Lingxiao looked up at Bao Rong'er and whispered, "I'm afraid we won't be able to sleep tonight." ”
Sure enough, as Xiao Lingxiao expected, half an hour later, there was a shout outside. Not long after, a demon wolf came in and reported, "Master, they said that there were thieves in the Prime Minister's Mansion and they wanted to go to the courtyard to catch the thieves." ”
Xiao Lingxiao got up and came to the courtyard with tolerance, and saw from a distance that the demon wolves were blocking a group of people at the gate of the courtyard.
"Let them all in." Xiao Lingxiao asked the demon wolf who came to report the incident to pass the word, and soon, both groups of people entered the courtyard, and more than 20 demon wolf youths stood behind Xiao Lingxiao, murderous and terrifying.
And those who came to this courtyard were a group of elites led by the head of the Prime Minister's Mansion. There were about twenty or thirty people who entered the courtyard, and Xiao Lingxiao swept his eyes and found that archers seemed to be arranged on the courtyard wall and even on the ridge. It seems that Xiao Shuyong is going to kill Xiao Lingxiao in the name of a thief.
Xiao Ling Xiaosen smiled coldly and said, "It was my father who asked you to kill me, right?" I know that you are working hard in the Prime Minister's Mansion to support your family and make ends meet, so if you are injured and disabled, it is all Xiao Shuyong's fault, and when you go back, you must be grateful to me Xiao Lingxiao, because I left you a life. ”
After saying this to the guards, Xiao Lingxiao turned to the demon wolves and said, "You brothers all understand, right?" Only wound, not kill. ”
Demon wolves are not a murderous race, so there is nothing wrong with Xiao Lingxiao's request. But the guards on the opposite side were all angry, they were able to become the most elite guards in the Prime Minister's Mansion, they were all carefully selected, one in a hundred masters, Xiao Lingxiao is such a little girl who is protected by a group of men to say such wild words, for these guards, it is simply a great shame.
The guards received death orders, and none of the people in the Qinghe Courtyard could get out alive, so after the leader of the guards gave the order to do something, all the guards rushed up with a scream.
More than a dozen demon wolves fought in one place against the guards, and the remaining seven or eight demon wolves all disappeared into the night sky. Before anyone could react, a scream was heard, and the archers who were lying on the walls and ridges fell down.
Xiao Lingxiao and Bao Rong'er stood in the main hall, watching the fight in the courtyard, although the guards were all strong in martial arts, they couldn't resist the demon wolves who grew up in the jungle. The demon wolves just relied on their natural acumen and fierce instincts, and they didn't need to use witchcraft, and they had already beaten these guys to the ground.
"Master, someone has come to watch the battle." The voice of a divine wolf came from his mind, Xiao Lingxiao turned his head in the direction it said, and really saw a black shadow flash away.
"Is it Su Donghan?" Xiao Lingxiao asked the wolf in a dark voice.
The Divine Wolf replied, "Someone we have never met before, he can hide his aura quite well, and he should be a powerful martial arts master." ”
Xiao Lingxiao told Bao Rong'er to guard here, and she took advantage of no one to pay attention, flew into the room, and then followed the direction in which the black shadow disappeared.
The divine wolf could still feel the faint aura left by that person, and when Xiao Lingxiao chased all the way to a garden in the Prime Minister's Mansion, he saw a man dressed in nocturnal coarse cloth black standing under the shade of a tree.
Xiao Lingxiao stopped vigilantly, and after hearing the divine wolf say that there was no one else around, he asked, "Who are you?" Don't know how to buy a ticket to see the excitement? ”
The man in black didn't come out from under the shade of the tree, but just opened his mouth and said softly, "I have no grudge with Miss Xiao in Xia, I accidentally got there just now, and I went over to see when I heard the sound of fighting, and I asked Miss Xiao to forgive me for my unintentional mistake." ”
When Xiao Lingxiao heard this, she couldn't help but sneer, "I didn't expect to meet a thief who talks elegantly, couldn't those guards be chasing you just now?" ”
The man in black shook his head when he heard this, "There are no thieves in the mansion, and the guards are going directly to Miss Xiao." ”
Xiao Lingxiao thought to herself, sure enough. The behavior of this guy in front of him was really suspicious, Xiao Lingxiao hesitated whether he should catch him and ask him clearly.
The man in black seemed to understand Xiao Lingxiao's thoughts, and said softly, "Miss Xiao is on the next horse today, and we will meet another day, and we will definitely repay this kindness." ”
Xiao Lingxiao frowned, "How do you know that we can meet another day?" "This guy is weak when he encounters the enemy, but it makes Xiao Lingxiao feel interesting. Seeing that the other party didn't answer, Xiao Lingxiao didn't want to ask any more, maybe she could really meet again another day.
At this moment, a fire suddenly broke out in the direction of Qinghe Courtyard, and the man in black stretched out his hand and pointed, and Xiao Lingxiao immediately found out.
The two seemed to have some tacit understanding, the man in black disappeared first, Xiao Lingxiao didn't chase him anymore, and hurriedly returned to Qinghe Courtyard. As soon as she arrived outside the courtyard, she saw a group of people desperately throwing torches and other things into the courtyard. The courtyard was in chaos, and most of the guards who had been knocked to the ground were badly injured and could not move, and the torches fell beside them, and they could only scream and crawl around. The demon wolf was afraid of fire, and he didn't dare to rush out, so he was called by Bao Rong'er to the main hall to take shelter for a while.
Xiao Lingxiao was angry when she saw this, but she didn't expect Xiao Shuyong to set fire to her house in order to kill her! He didn't even care about the guards, and let them burn to death in this courtyard as well!
"Divine wolf, is there any way?"
The night was windy, and the fire grew fierce.
"Wouldn't it be okay to let the demon wolves withdraw? The host will pick a separate yard to live in. The wolf seemed to have no sense of urgency at all, and said leisurely.
Xiao Lingxiao frowned and said angrily, "I asked you if you have a way to extinguish the fire!" ”
The white light flashed, and the divine wolf landed on all fours, looking up and squinting at Xiao Lingxiao, "They are coming to kill you, don't you deserve to die?" ”
Xiao Lingxiao glared, "Where is so much nonsense!" ”
The divine wolf sighed, and the huge wolf body suddenly turned into an ethereal smoke and dust, which rose into the air, and then turned into a violent wind, setting off the dust and sand in the sky, and swept across the Prime Minister's Mansion.
In just a short moment, the wind roared, as if heaven and earth were about to become one. Those who set fire to the outside of Qinghe Courtyard had to throw away their belongings and lie on the ground, and some were even lifted by the strong wind and thrown out of the distance. The pool of water in the Qinghe courtyard poured down like a torrential rain as if it had been swept up by a strong wind, and in the blink of an eye, the fire in the Qinghe courtyard disappeared without a trace.
The wind crawled out of hell like a night watchman, and disappeared as soon as it passed.
After a while, the divine wolf flew back triumphantly, but when it looked closely, it found that Xiao Lingxiao was also blown away unsuspectingly, and now he was standing there unkempt and puffing his waist.
"God...... Wolf ......"
"Hah...... Haha......" The wolf sweated on his forehead and laughed dryly, "Fire...... I put out the fire! After saying this, it disappeared in front of Xiao Lingxiao's eyes with a swish.
