Chapter 278: Cannibalism
Zhao Wangfu.
During this time, Xiao Wuxin was looking for famous doctors from all over the world, just to be able to pull Xiao Yanting back from the brink of death.
Including all kinds of famous medicines, all that can be used, all are greeted.
As long as Xiao Yanting's hope of being alive can be raised, Xiao Wuxin will not hesitate.
Princess Zhao saw all this in her eyes, and she couldn't repay the emperor's kindness.
Maybe it was God's favor, Xiao Yanting's life was greatly blessed, and he finally survived the dangerous period.
However, due to the heavy damage to his heart, it was impossible to exercise vigorously in this life, that is, King Zhao could no longer bend his bow and shoot arrows and ride a horse to kill the enemy.
This is already the best result for Xiao Wuxin, as long as people live.
"Your Majesty...... ......"King Zhao wanted to say something, but he couldn't say it, he was weak and could only have tears in his eyes, if it weren't for Xiao Wuxin's own life, he would have died long ago."
Looking at Xiao Yanting, who woke up, Xiao Wuxin said: "Fourth, that knife will not let you suffer in vain, I will make the person who hurt you pay the price of blood." ”
At this time, Xiao Wuxin's personal eunuch came to the room and whispered, "Your Majesty, Wang Shicong and Qin Fen are here. ”
When the two came to the imperial city, they didn't see Xiao Wuxin, so they guessed that the emperor was in King Zhao's mansion.
"They must have caught the killer and waited for me to come back." Xiao Wuxin patted King Zhao's shoulder with relief.
......
After Wang Shicong and Qin Fen saw Xiao Wuxin, they hurriedly saluted.
After motioning for the two to get up, Xiao Wuxin asked, "Did anyone catch it?" ”
The two nodded at the same time, and Wang Shicong added: "Your Majesty, they hid deep enough, disguised as dancing girls, and they were scratching their heads in the brothel, if it weren't for Qin Fen's sharp eyes, they would have almost been fooled by them." ”
Xiao Wuxin looked at Qin Fen, and was also very surprised: "The killer is a woman? ”
Everyone's first impression of the killer is that they are ruthless and vicious men, and this group of killers sent by Beiliang is just a group of beautiful women, who perfectly conceal their true identities through the identity of the women in the dust.
And the land of wind and dust is precisely the most perfect place to transmit news, I have to say that Beiliang's approach this time is really cautious and cautious.
Qin Fen didn't dare to take credit, and said: "The minister just noticed the difference in their behavior, so he boldly gambled, but he didn't expect to win." ”
The women of Beiliang are different from the women of the Central Plains, their behavior is quite different from that of the Zhou people, and after questioning with the old bustard, these women claim to be from Yangzhou, which undoubtedly verifies the fact that they are lying, and also verifies Qin Fen's verification.
"Where are they?" Xiao Wuxin asked with a gloomy face.
"Locked up in a dungeon for watchmen." Wang Shicong replied.
"Take me over."
This group of killers dared to touch his brothers, and they had already touched Xiao Wuxin's scales, even if they were women, they were equally unforgivable.
Came to the yamen of the watchman.
Different from the period when Xiao Yuanshan was in power, Xiao Wuxin had completely made the "Imperial City Watchman" public, and really set up a government office for the watchman organization to open a government.
Nowadays, this group of watchmen is no longer hiding in the dark and sneaking around, but is listed as the regular establishment of the imperial court in an open and honest manner, and the watchmen are not subordinate to the six ministries, let alone obey the orders of the cabinet, but directly under the jurisdiction of the emperor.
Dungeon.
There were five female killers arrested this time, Xiao Wuxin came to the prison, the five of them were hung in the air by steel cables, and they were beaten all over their bodies while wearing prison uniforms.
"Recruited?!" Xiao Wuxin asked the interrogator.
"Back to Your Majesty, don't look at them all women, their mouths are strict, but they don't recruit anyone to direct them behind the scenes." The interrogator replied.
This group of murderers came to Jinling thousands of miles away, and there must be people behind them who are connected, as long as they catch the people who are connected, the rest of the spies hidden in the shadows will also surface.
"Since they are hard bones, they didn't even think about suicide when they were caught?" Xiao Wuxin asked with a sneer.
"How is it possible not to commit suicide? It's just that we discovered the poison sac hidden in the mouth in advance, so we didn't succeed in suicide. Wang Shicong said with a smile.
Xiao Wuxin was very satisfied, all the people in the organization were human spirits, and the methods of these five killers were weak chickens in front of them, and Guan Gong was playing with a big knife in front of him.
"Your Majesty, it's not a way for them to continue to torture like this if they don't recruit." Qin Fen said.
Xiao Wuxin sat down with Erlang's legs crossed, looked up at the killers who were hanging in the air, and said, "I know that you are not afraid of death, so it's better to play a game for you, and the name of the game is 'Only One Can Live'." ”
"The five of you draw lots, as long as anyone can draw the 'Wu' number, the remaining four people will die, and the surviving person, whether you say it or not, I will release her, and I will also give her a thousand taels of silver, and send her to a place where no one can find her, what do you think?"
The five did not speak.
"If you don't speak, I'll take it as your acquiescence." Xiao Wuxin was a little joking.
Wang Shicong and the others don't understand what the emperor is doing, if they were afraid of death, they would have said it a long time ago, and they would have waited until now?!
However, how did they know that Xiao Wuxin was playing "psychological warfare".
When Xiao Wuxin told them that only one person could live, this was already hinting at the final ending.
If five die together, they will not be afraid; But what if the first four people died?! The last person left is alive in the end, whether he says it or not.
There is only one end to this: they will kill each other in order to survive.
