Chapter 57: Have You Figured It Out?

"Three shopkeepers, don't be angry! The princess is ignorant when she first came, why should you bother with her, we all know that the three of them are the pillars of the palace, if it weren't for you, the little ones would have to drink the northwest wind......"

Xia Xue coldly watched these maidservants and maids keep the three of them one after another, and secretly laughed at their ignorance in their words, intentionally or unintentionally, they were really fearless who did not know.

The three people who were surrounded by everyone in the middle had a smile in their eyes, but they pretended to be tall and arrogant.

"Princess, don't drive the three shopkeepers away, if you don't have them, what will happen to the store? Where does the food and clothing in the palace come from? Someone had the audacity to say to Xia Xue.

"Since you can't live without them so much, roll up your bunks and leave with them!" Xia Xue raised her eyebrows, hooked her lips slightly, and said lightly.

The sound in the hall stopped abruptly, and the sound of a still needle hitting the ground could be heard.

It's been a long time.

Someone timidly knelt on the ground and said, "Princess, the slave didn't mean that, and ask the princess to forgive ...... sin," he said, his head fell to the ground, and he kowtowed.

When everyone saw this, they came forward and begged for mercy.

"Shut up!" Xia Xue shouted angrily at everyone, stood up, slowly came to the three of them, and said coldly, "The three of you want to leave, that's necessary, but before leaving, return the silver taels you have embezzled, one less copper plate, just wait for a board." As for you ......"

Xia Xue slowly turned around, looked at the people kneeling on the ground, and said, "Return all the things you took from the palace one by one, even if you have to hand over every brick and tile to this concubine, otherwise, hum!" ”

Otherwise, go for yourselves.

Xia Xue slowly walked to the chair and sat down again.

Xia Xue's cold words made everyone's hearts fall to the bottom all of a sudden, since ancient times, the people did not fight with officials, let alone the royal people, if they want to kill a person, it is as simple as pinching an ant to death, not to mention that they did do the thing of stealing chickens and dogs, but the stolen things have long been lost, and the money has long been spent. And the three shopkeepers, the silver taels that they privately swallowed have also squandered almost, and now let them hand them over, that is, they have bought all the family property, and it is not enough to sell it themselves!

Everyone's faces turned pale, and their minds went blank for a moment.

Steward Xu stood aside and watched the princess battle wits and courage with these people, and his face changed again and again.

It's not that he doesn't know these things about these people, it's just that the prince is like this now, and it is already difficult for the prince he can protect to be thoughtful, and he is old, so he really can't take care of so much, but fortunately, now he has a princess.

He is even more glad for the prince now, the prince is married to Xia Xue, not Xia Lin, the prince's good days should be coming soon! Thinking of this, Steward Xu couldn't help but have slightly red eyes.

It's just that I didn't expect that a veteran figure like the money shopkeeper would actually fall into the well for the prince in this situation, which is really hateful! What a damn one! Steward Xu couldn't help but curse them fiercely in his heart.

"Whoever you take anything from the palace without permission, stand up for the concubine."

Everyone looks at each other, and going out is equivalent to confessing their sins, what should I do?

"If the concubine counts to three, if she automatically confesses her guilt, she will be punished lightly, and the person who conceals it will be killed!"

When everyone heard that the rod had been killed, they all shuddered.

The cowardly, as soon as they heard this, they quickly stood up, and some of them were still struggling to die, speculating that the princess was just babbling about them.

"Three!" Xia Xue's eyes were cold, and as the cold words came out, everyone looked at her in amazement.

"Steward Xu, let the guards drag these people down and beat them to death." Pointing at those who were motionless, the merciless words floated softly from her lips, but the beautiful voice had already pronounced their death sentences.

Steward Xu was slightly stunned, does the princess really want to kill these people? Looking closely, the princess is serious.

"The old slave takes orders!" Steward Xu replied respectfully, turned around, and shouted at the door, "Come on, pull them down and kill them." ”

"The princess spares her life!"

"Didn't the princess say that she counted to three, why did she count three directly?" Someone said unconvinced.

"Concubine Ben said counting to three, but she didn't say from one to three! The opportunity is given to you, but you don't want it, since you want to die so much, this concubine will fulfill you! Xia Xue's cold words pierced everyone's hearts like a cold knife.

The uniformly dressed palace guards appeared, surrounded everyone, and in an instant, the screams of the maids and maids in the palace were endless, and all of them cried and begged like wolves.

A servant girl sneaked to King Yi's feet, trying to grab King Yi's leg and plead, but was kicked away by Xia Xue, "Drag it out - cane death!" ”

It's not that I'm too ruthless, but if I can't stand up in the palace today, and I can't correct the atmosphere of the palace, I'm afraid that it will be even more difficult if I want to think about rectification in the future.

The so-called snake hit seven inches!

And the seven inches of these people are to let them know that the master is always the master, the slave is always the slave, the slave belongs to the master, and the master, or everything of the master, will never belong to them.

If you don't make a move, you have to strike first, and you can't give the other party a chance to fight back.

The ruthlessness of killing chickens and monkeys is still a must!

Soon, the courtyard of the palace sounded the dull sound of flesh touching with sticks, echoed by a sharp cry of pain, which passed through the open courtyard and reached the ears of the three shopkeepers who were trembling, like a spell, tearing at their hearts, and fear followed them tightly.

Xia Xue supported her chin with one hand, her eyes narrowed slightly, and she looked at the three of them with a smile, such an expression made the three of them feel like they were facing a great enemy, making it even worse, and shaking even more.

"Have you figured it out?"

"Think, think what?" Shopkeeper Tian asked timidly.

Xia Xue's eyes swept over the other two, and when she saw that the two of them also looked like they didn't know why, she knew that these old guys didn't shed tears when they saw the coffin, and they didn't hit the south wall and didn't look back.

"Steward Xu, the cane punishment is suspended, you take the guards in the palace, according to the address on this, the soldiers will divide the three shopkeepers into three ways and search me out all the things they stole from the palace."

"The old slave commands." Steward Xu is so happy in his heart, the princess's trick is really wonderful! Holding the address given to him by the princess in his hand, he was happy in his heart, and his steps couldn't help but be brisk.

Seeing that Steward Xu was leaving with someone, Xia Xue said coldly to the three of them, "Since you don't want to say it, do you want Concubine Ben to say it for you?" ”
