Chapter 168: Temptation
"Oh no.. Grandpa Sheng is not good.." A little maid ran in.
"What's wrong? But there's news of the master? ”
"No, a team of guards suddenly came outside, and it was in the direction of us, I heard the news from the queen's side, saying that the disappearance of the master seems to involve His Royal Highness the Nine, and the queen mother seems.. It seems intended..."
Xiao Liuzi's eyes lit up: "Plan to bend into a move?" ”
The maid nodded heavily, and Xiao Liuzi's heart also jumped out, he knew the relationship between the master and His Royal Highness Jiu, but now if this matter is poked out, the master is afraid that there is only one way to die.
At the moment, the master is not by his side, and his party is just a group of minions, and I am afraid that they will not be able to compete with the queen.
He took a few heavy breaths, no, the master's life and death are uncertain at the moment, and he can't let the master mess up behind him anymore.
"Quick, call all the palace people from Luoyue Palace who came to hunt."
Xiao Liuzi clenched his trembling hands and forced himself to calm down, and his usual smiling and obedient eyes were actually beginning to take shape at this moment.
The maid hurriedly ran out, Xiao Liuzi paced in the room with his hands behind his back, no matter what, he would never allow someone to harm the master when the master was no longer there, and took out a silver ticket, called his henchmen, and asked him to drag the guards who came by the people he installed on weekdays.
After everything was done, Xiao Liuzi's eyes lit up, he turned out the box he brought with him, and the moment he opened it, he suddenly shone with golden light, which was incomparably bright, making people unable to open their eyes, and their hearts moved, and the box was placed on the table.
After Emperor Beiyan bought the red lotus picture for his master, these silver coins have been in his custody, because he left the palace this time, he was afraid of using silver money, so he brought this box of gold ingots, and he didn't want to come in handy now.
The little maid's efficiency was not low, and after a while, the palace people of Luoyue Palace all walked in, trembling one by one, as if they were very afraid.
Xiao Liuzi always waited with a cold face, just like usual.
After everyone arrived, Xiao Liuzi slowly spoke: "Niangniang has not returned at this moment, presumably you have all got the news." ”
"According to our family, the mother is afraid that this time it will be more auspicious, the queen mother promised a lot of profits, as long as we are willing to insist that we have seen the master and His Royal Highness Jiu fornication, these are rewarded to us."
Xiao Liuzi looked at everyone's expressions, and with a push of his hand, the box on the table collapsed, and the gold ingots inside were scattered on the table, and the whole person's tent lit up instantly.
These palace people, who saw a few taels of silver as a reward on weekdays, looked at the fist-sized gold ingots one by one, unable to take their eyes off, some licked their lips, some wiped their eyes, some swallowed saliva, and some even tried to stretch out their hands.
"Our family's gold is enough for us to live without worrying about food and clothing, but our family is uneasy, worried that when the master comes back, he will know that we betrayed her, and he will have to settle accounts with us. Our family doesn't want to betray the master, the gold given by the queen mother, the master will only give more, but now the guards sent by the queen mother will soon take us to the execution, our family is afraid that we will not be able to bear the pain of flesh and skin, and will be beaten into a trick. So now we are very hesitant, and we can't make up our minds for a while, and we want to hear your opinions. ”
Xiao Liuzi opened his mouth unhurriedly, and many palace people began to talk to each other, one by one nervous, and it could be seen that they were also afraid.
"What are you waiting for! Don't talk yet! Seeing that no one spoke, Xiao Liuzi shouted loudly.
Seeing this, Yinhuan was the first to speak: "Gonggong Sheng, how can you treat your master like this, in vain the master's grace and trust in you on weekdays, and now that the master has an accident, you are so disappointing!" ”
The gold bracelet pulled the silver ring: "Speak well." ”
The silver bracelet snorted coldly: "I will not betray my master, there is no one in this palace who treats us better than Concubine Luo." ”
The gold bracelet also stepped forward and said, "I also agree with the silver bracelet. ”
"Our family doesn't want to betray the master, but I'm afraid that we will have to recruit under the pain of flesh and skin." Xiao Liuzi sighed.
"Rubbish!" Yinhuan scolded angrily, Xiao Liuzi's face was not good, but he still had some comfort in his heart.
At this time, a second-class maid said with some hesitation: "But... Even if we don't say it, what's the use, among so many people, as long as one person says it, the mother is a dead end. ”
The other eunuch kept looking at Xiao Liuzi's face, and when he saw this, he said: "In my opinion, we can defect to the queen mother, as long as we are willing to insist that it is His Royal Highness the Ninth who has an affair with Concubine Luo, even if the master comes back, we can't help it?" The master himself is difficult to protect, what good can he give us? It's better to know the times as a junjie! ”
Xiao Liuzi swept past the eunuch who opened his mouth, and turned his head to look at the other palace people: "What do you think?" ”
Some others stood in the gold bracelet and silver rings, and the rest hesitated and did not say anything.
This made Xiao Liuzi feel a little comforted, after all, most of the people in this Luoyue Palace were selected by him and his master, if the tree fell down at this moment, it would really be a slap in the face, even if the master came back, what face did he have?
"That's right, a good person who knows the times is Junjie."
Xiao Liuzi is still a smiling face, not much different from his usual attitude, but it inexplicably makes many people bow their heads.
"In that case, take the gold." Xiao Liuzi looked at the eunuch who intended to sell his lord for glory and said.
Turning sideways, the shining gold on the table aroused greed.
The eunuch hesitated for a while, looked at the people around him, and then looked at Xiao Liuzi, and finally failed to resist the temptation of this real money, you know, only those who dare to try can get more, although no one dares to join him at this moment, but relatively, these gold will also belong to him, oh no, and Gonggong Sheng.
Xiao Liuzi showed a sneer in his eyes, what the master said was really reasonable, a person may not be shaken in the face of the empty promise of 100,000 taels of gold, or the silver ticket, but if he is faced with 10,000 taels of real money and silver in front of him, he may not be unshaken.
The eunuch stepped forward step by step, looking at the lovely gold ingots, his eyes lit up, and the rest of the palace people also looked at him, as if they wanted to observe the situation in front of them.
The eunuch stretched out his hand tremblingly, and just as one hand was about to touch the gold in front of the table, Xiao Liuzi suddenly moved.
A lancet flew out of the cuff, led by silver filaments, outlining silver brilliance in the air.
"Ahh
The eunuch suddenly let out a scream, and his movements stopped instantly, and many palace people covered their mouths, watching this sudden great change.
The eunuch's eyes were full of horror, and his trembling hand gently caressed his face, but he never dared to cover it.
Looking at it again, I found that the eunuch who had just been full of red light, at this moment, his round face was actually stabbed a few times, just like a fish on weekdays, and his face was shaved off.
Xiao Liuzi's movements did not stop, his hand rose and fell, and a lancet was controlled by silver wire.
Before the eunuch could speak, he saw that the ground beside him was gradually covered with a layer of flesh and skin, blood splattered everywhere, and a drop was sprayed on the candlestick on the table, making a sneering sound.
A piece of silver light flew, hovering up and down with a moving melody, but the eunuch's undulating cries were like the sound of hell.
The palace people in the house began to tremble one by one, and no one could have imagined that Gonggong Sheng, who seemed to be very good at talking on weekdays, would be so cruel, wanting to retreat and escape from this tent, but found that his legs seemed to be filled with lead, and he couldn't move a step no matter what.
Yinhuan couldn't help but shudder, wanting to close his eyes, but he still unconsciously watched this perfect performance.
The gold bracelet slowly lowered his head, clenched his palm, and told himself all the time that he must not betray his master, otherwise the end would only be worse.
The lancet slashed over the eunuch's body, and before everyone could see how the knife flew, they saw pieces of skin and flesh flying away from the eunuch's body with the same size and equal thickness, not like murder, but like art.
The exposed cyan blood vessels, the beating and distinct muscles, and the white bones made people feel creepy for a while.
No one knows how many knives there are, but they can't help but think of a thousand cuts, but that's it.
Looking at the blurred mass of flesh and blood rolling on the ground, Xiao Liuzi slowly wiped his hands clean and said, "Today, our family just wants to tell you that death can be very enjoyable." ”
Many palace people came back to their senses one by one with red eyes, but at this moment they understood that maybe death is not terrible, what is terrible is that you enjoy the process of dying, life is better than death!
Xiao Liuzi continued to speak: "I called you here today, there are some things that our family wants to explain to you, this time the master is outside, the queen will invite us to come over to ask, if anyone says something that should not be said, don't blame our family for not being merciful in the future." ”
The wind outside the tent blew the placket of Xiao Liuzi's clothes, and the candle shadows on the table were also jumping, which added a bit of solemnity.
Xiao Liuzi paused for a moment and continued: "Don't think that with the queen mother as a backer, you can not be afraid of heaven and earth, even if our family dies in the hands of the queen mother today, our family can guarantee that you will never see the sun for one more day than our family!" ”
The atmosphere in the crowd was a little dull, and many palace maids were frightened, and after coming back to their senses, they covered their mouths and seemed to want to vomit, but looking at the appearance that they never dared to move, Xiao Liuzi wondered if she would swallow it back.
"Today's words, we hope you all keep it in mind, if anyone can't control their mouths and hands, and talks nonsense and greedy for money, this is his fate."
Xiao Liuzi's not strong voice is deeply engraved in everyone's psychology at this moment.
"The slave must swear allegiance to Concubine Luo."
After one person spoke, many people spoke one after another, Xiao Liuzi nodded, and said to the henchman next to him: "Everything you prepared is ready." ”
"Ready."
