Chapter 42 Breaking into the house and seizing people
Xiao Lingxiao subconsciously looked at Xiao Fengming, his thick eyelashes seemed to be flickering with the soft light of the candle flame, and in a pair of dark and clear eyes, there was an indescribable heat that seemed to burst out at any time. The more you look closely, the more you will feel that Xiao Fengming's handsome face is not like a mortal, in the swaying light and shadow, he seems to disappear at any time.
"Feng Ming......" Xiao Lingxiao subconsciously raised his hand and held his wrist.
Xiao Fengming's body shook slightly, and then the corners of his mouth bloomed with the same smile as usual, and he asked softly, "What's wrong, sister?" Don't like this pastry? This is made by the best pastry chef in Chufu Building, so it's hard to buy. Look, there are several more here, would you like to try something else? ”
With that, he quietly withdrew his hand and pushed another plate with pastries in front of Xiao Lingxiao.
I don't know why, the moment Xiao Fengming withdrew his hand, Xiao Lingxiao suddenly felt a little lonely. She looked down at the delicate pastries on the plate, and she had lost her appetite at all.
Xiao Lingxiao simply told Xiao Fengming what happened in the palace, and after she finished speaking, she found that Xiao Fengming's face had become very ugly.
"There's another way, isn't there? Why did you agree to marry Su Donghan! Xiao Fengming couldn't hide his anger, clenched his fists tightly, gritted his teeth and said, "I'm going to kill him!" Sister, you don't have to worry about these things anymore! I'll kill your enemies for you!" Is the Xiao family here? Leave none behind! ”
Hearing this, Xiao Lingxiao hurriedly waved her hand and persuaded, "I have my own opinions on these things, if we kill those people like this, we will definitely cause a lot of trouble in the future." ”
"What trouble are you afraid of?" Xiao Fengming said angrily, "After we kill those people, I'll take you out of here!" No matter how long the manpower of the country is, it is only in this country! ”
Xiao Lingxiao was stunned when she heard this, but she thought about it, in this other world, of course, there will not be only one Wuqi country, but unfortunately, there is no world map here, and Xiao Lingxiao doesn't know how big Wuqi country is, let alone what other countries there are besides Wuqi country.
She suddenly remembered that Xuan Xuan had said that Feng Ming seemed to be running around with his father in business.
"Fengming, have you been to other countries?"
Xiao Fengming frowned, his anger seemed to have dropped a little, he let out a sigh of relief, nodded and said, "I have been to many places, and after you take revenge, I will take you out of here, find a place you like, and live the life you like." ”
When Xiao Fengming said this, he used a declarative tone, as if such a decision was taken for granted. Xiao Lingxiao knew that he should refute it, and he had not consulted her at all for this decision. But she didn't want to say this, and sometimes, it was a kind of happiness to be decided by someone else. Especially when this matter is still far away, even if it is only a small hope, Xiao Lingxiao decided to keep it.
Two days ago, there was nothing to do, and Xuan came back with a message, saying that the fourth prince was called by the imperial concubine to persuade him, and he didn't go to the emperor to make trouble anymore, and the emperor didn't take the matter of marriage to heart. In the eyes of others, Xiao Lingxiao's marriage to Su Donghan is obviously a certainty.
On the third day, Bao Rong'er came back in a hurry, and when she entered the house, she said to Xiao Lingxiao, "Xiao Shuyong is here, and he brought a lot of people." ”
Xiao Lingxiao smiled indifferently, turned her head and asked Xiao Fengming, "Are they here?" ”
Xiao Fengming nodded, "I arrived last night." ”
At this time, in front of the door of the Lu Mansion, the two carriages and horses slowly stopped, and Xiao Shuyong came out of the carriage in front of him, looked up at the huge "Lu Mansion" plaque on the lintel, and his brows were twisted into pimples. If you want to say that the place he is most unwilling to go to in this imperial city, it is this Lu Mansion. Back then, the Lu family was so prosperous and arrogant, even when he Xiao Shuyong came here, he had to bend down and bow his head. That feeling, when I think about it now, is even more like a fish in my throat.
Xiao Lingxiao, the child born by the Lu family, how much trouble she gave the Xiao family! Now that she has deliberately bought this Lu Mansion, what is she going to do?
Xiao Shuyong suppressed the anger in his heart, and only hoped to end these bad things as soon as possible.
As soon as he waved his hand, a guard with a large knife at his waist came forward and slammed the door.
The door was opened by an old man with a white beard, who was not dressed as a slave, as if he were just an ordinary person. The guard proudly pushed the old man to the side, and then bowed down to meet Xiao Shuyong into the courtyard.
The familiar courtyard evoked memories of the past, Xiao Shuyong waved his hand in vain, and said in an irritable voice to a few stout old women brought by him, "Go and find the eldest lady!" ”
A few stout old ladies moved when they heard this, and ran quickly towards the house. But before they could run a few steps, they were frightened back by a group of men armed with knives, guns and clubs.
A group of people poured out from it violently, led by Xiao Lingxiao and Xiao Fengming.
Xiao Lingxiao still had a cold smile on her face, she came to Xiao Shuyong and stood still, glanced at the dozens of guards behind him, and asked, "Father broke in with these people like this, is it to tie me back?" ”
Xiao Shuyong glared at Xiao Lingxiao fiercely and said angrily, "Look at what you are like now?" The eldest lady of the dignified Prime Minister's Mansion actually ran outside to make a fuss! Are you going to stand on your own? It's ridiculous! Hurry up and go home with me, or I'll have to tie you back!" ”
"Father!" Xiao Lingxiao gritted her teeth and said sharply, "Have you forgotten how you kicked me out of the Prime Minister's Mansion in the first place?" Don't you know who is responsible for today's situation? Hum! You say I'm going to set up my own door? Well said! I, Xiao Lingxiao, am just about to stand on my own, is there anything I can't do? Tell you! I now have a house and a courtyard, and I live freely, I don't need to be rewarded by your Xiao family, I don't need your charity, I can still live! No one here bullies me, no one plots against me, so why not! ”
"Presumptuous!" Xiao Shuyong was afraid that Xiao Lingxiao would tell the ugly things about the Xiao family, so he said angrily, "If I give birth to you and raise you, it is better to raise a beast!" You have encountered all kinds of misfortunes before, and your family has endured you and let you, but you have become even worse! You slander the Xiao family everywhere in front of people, this is simply inferior to a beast! I have been an official for many years, and I only care about the people in the world, but I didn't expect my daughters to be arrogant like this! Xiao Lingxiao! You're going to come back with me no matter what! I have to do my duty as a father and discipline you well. ”
With that, Xiao Shuyong took a step back and made a gesture behind him. As soon as the dozens of guards he brought with him saw this signal, they immediately drew their sabers at their waists and rushed forward with a roar. The rest of the old mothers also stared at Xiao Lingxiao, and when they had the opportunity, they went to subdue her.
Xiao Fengming saw the guards rushing up, and the corners of his mouth provoked a cruel smile.
The dozen or so people who followed him were all demon wolves who had rushed over from the wolf clan. The shallowest cultivator among them has lived for a hundred or two hundred years, and all of them have experienced a hundred battles, and they are all bloodthirsty monsters. Xiao Lingxiao specially confessed that they were not allowed to kill, but these demon wolves still rarely encountered this kind of excitement, watching the guards rush over with big knives, not only were they not afraid, but they all smiled, picked up knives, guns and sticks to meet them.
A melee with an extremely disparity in power began in the blink of an eye, and the demon wolves seemed to have a tacit understanding, teasing Xiao Shuyong's guards like cats and mice. If these guards were placed on weekdays, their martial arts would be first-class, but now they have become living playthings, and they are not vulnerable at all.
Xiao Lingxiao stood there without moving, she still looked at Xiao Shuyong coldly, watching him stunned by the scene in front of him, his face turned from red to iron, and then turned pale.
"Father, what I said on the day you kicked me out of the house, the old lady should have told you again, right? If you want me to go back to the Xiao family, you two must kneel down and beg me! ”
After saying this, Xiao Lingxiao smiled coldly, turned around, and walked through the crowd of people unscrupulously.
By the time the demon wolves had had enough, the guards brought by Xiao Shuyong had already turned into pigs and collapsed to the ground. Xiao Fengming asked the demon wolves to drag these people out of the Lu Mansion, he slowly came to Xiao Shuyong, and said coldly, "I don't know if my sister repents of marriage and resists the decree like this, whether the emperor will only blame herself, or will the entire Xiao family be implicated." In case the Xiao family is like the Lu family back then, and they are all over the place, I, an outsider with no genealogy, I don't know if I will be implicated? Uncle, I see that you and the old lady have to discuss carefully before making a decision. ”
Looking at the back of Xiao Fengming's departure, Xiao Shuyong was like a fish in his throat, his words just hit Xiao Shuyong's sore spot, the Lu family was strong for a while, there were courtiers with prominent official positions, there were fierce generals guarding the border gates, and even the daughter of the Lu family married a neighboring country and became a princess, how could the emperor not mind such a force? Lu Jiawei is too big to fall, and after the emperor set it up thoroughly, he caught a momentary mistake and beheaded him. Xiao Shuyong knew that the Xiao family was not as strong as the Lu family, but after the emperor beheaded the Lu family, his suspicions became heavier.
The Xiao family must not repeat the mistakes of the Lu family, he Xiao Shuyong is a minister, and it is not ashamed to grovel in front of the emperor, but if it is for a daughter who has not been disciplined well and bears a notoriety of resisting the decree, it is absolutely impossible! The Xiao family will never make the slightest mistake because of a Xiao Lingxiao!
Xiao Shuyong secretly gritted his teeth, walked out of the gate of the Lu Mansion, and saw the guards on the ground, snorted, flicked his sleeves and got into the carriage.
In the Lu Mansion, Xiao Fengming still didn't seem to be relieved, he didn't have the smile on his face, and said softly to Xiao Lingxiao, "Xiao Shuyong won't give up, my sister wants to force them to kneel with this, I'm afraid it's not easy." ”
Xiao Lingxiao picked the corners of her mouth and nodded, "But with a few tricks, how can they know that they are afraid?" ”
