Chapter 416: The Lady Is Fierce
The Secretary of the Criminal Ministry coughed and said, "Since he is the younger brother's father-in-law, he is my colleague. Ahem, Mr. Su, come, let's study the testimonies of these envoys together."
Dali Temple Minister: "Listen to what you have to say..."
The Minister of the Ministry of Justice said in surprise: "This sentence of the official can also bring inspiration to Mr. Yan?"
Dali Temple Minister: "If you listen to a conversation..."
Minister of Criminal Affairs: "..."
Doctor Yushi: "The last time I was so speechless, it was the last time."
The Secretary of the Ministry of Justice looked at the two of them: "Could it be that what I said is wrong? Isn't Mr. Su a colleague of this official?"
Doctor Yushi: "Is what I said wrong? Wasn't it the last time I was speechless?"
Jingzhao Fuyin, who watched everything silently from the side, thought in his heart: you all put it here, where should you put it?
night
The moon is dark and the wind is high
Residence of the Envoy of the State of Zhou
An envoy surnamed Zhao was writing something in front of the desk, when the shadow of the candle suddenly shook, the door was opened and a young man walked in.
When the messenger surnamed Zhao heard someone coming, he quickly raised his head and saw Li Xun walking in. Immediately, his hands began to tremble. Before he could put the paper away, he quickly took out a book and covered it, stood up and laughed along with him. Said: "Master Zhengshi, you...why are you here?"
Li Xun walked to the table of the envoy surnamed Zhao: "This envoy came to see the envoy Zhao, what are you doing sitting at the table so late?"
There was a little cold sweat on the forehead of the envoy surnamed Zhao: "No...it's nothing, it's because I can't sleep, read a book."
Li Xun glanced at the envoy surnamed Zhao: "Oh? Envoy Zhao is so eager to learn?"
As he spoke, Li Xun moved the books on the desk case away, and suddenly found a piece of paper, Li Xun picked it up, and read softly: "The real murderer of Deputy Envoy Yang Zhou was Li Xun?"
After reading this, Li Xun showed a weird smile while tearing the paper in half and lighting it with a candle beside him.
"tick..."
A drop of sweat fell on the messenger Zhao's forehead, and he wanted to shout, but it was obvious that Li Xun had been guarding against him, and he stretched out his hand and grabbed the messenger Zhao's neck, causing the messenger Zhao to be strangled I couldn't yell out at all when I hurt my neck, and finally I could only make a painful whine.
The piece of paper that was originally lit by the candle in Li Xun's hand was also thrown into the air with Li Xun's hands, like petals falling from the fire lotus, fluttering and falling to the ground, the flame extinguished, turning into ashes all over the place.
Due to difficulty in breathing, the emissary surnamed Zhao instinctively stretched out his hand to break free from Li Xun's hand, but due to lack of oxygen, the resistance was too weak.
While pinching the messenger Zhao's neck, Li Xun stretched out his hand and pulled out the hairpin that the messenger Zhao used to tie his hair, aiming at the messenger Zhao's neck.
Li Xun exerted a little force, and the hairpin pierced through the neck of the envoy surnamed Zhao, and at the same time, the envoy Zhao Xing fell silent.
Li Xun let go of his hand, and the envoy surnamed Zhao immediately fell to the ground straight, with a blood-stained hairpin sticking out of his neck.
Li Xun picked up the silk handkerchief of the envoy Zhao Xing and wiped the blood on his hands, then it was still on the envoy surnamed Zhao, and murmured, "The last hidden danger has been eliminated."
Then Li Xun blew out the lights and walked out of the room.
In fact, there is no need for Li Xun to eliminate him, because even if he said it, it was a one-sided statement, and one-sided words alone could not convict Li Xun at all.
However, the crime of falsely accusing Shangguan is not fatal, and it will eventually be a trouble if this letter spreads.
It's fine if he's the only one, but he still has a Little Sister to protect, and there's no room for mistakes.
Keeping this person is always a hidden danger, but now Li Xun doesn't want to leave any hidden danger.
...
Andingbo Mansion
The little maid hugged Su Qian's changed clothes and followed Su Qian to the bathroom.
Su Qian likes to take a bath before going to bed, and usually the little maid, Xuan'er, will go with her.
Li Mingyue came from the side wearing cool clothes.
Xu Qing looked at Li Mingyue and asked, "Isn't Mingyue still asleep?"
Li Mingyue shook her head, and said softly: "I can't sleep, I want to come out and take a look here."
In fact, Li Mingyue didn't say anything, she was reluctant to sleep.
For falling asleep the night will pass quickly.
Now that the mission is coming to an end, and the deputy envoy in the mission was unexpectedly assassinated, I'm afraid he should go back when half a month is up, when the time comes, Chu and Zhou will probably meet each other.
It is also because of this that Li Mingyue cherishes every day of staying in Chu State and Andingbo Mansion.
Here she met sisters like Su Qian, Long Bing'er, and Xiao Ruxue, and she didn't have to worry about being bullied by the next princess and prince.
They are all very good, they will let her, teach her martial arts, and stand up for her.
Xu Qing even saved her several times.
This place is actually more like a home than the indifferent palace in the palace.
Lively, stable, harmonious.
It's a pity that this place does not belong to her, and the people here are not her family members. She just lives here temporarily and will leave here one day.
And the day of departure is not far away.
Go to bed late and get up early, so she can stay here for a while.
After returning to the state of Zhou, I can have more memories.
Xu Qing looked at Li Mingyue and said, "Why don't you go and sit in the pavilion over there, there is toilet water hanging there, and there are relatively fewer mosquitoes."
Li Mingyue nodded, with an imperceptible smile on her face, followed Xu Qing as she walked over.
The two sat in the small pavilion, and the lampposts beside the pavilion were lit with lamps, illuminating the small pavilion.
Li Mingyue seemed to have considered it for a long time and asked, "Can Mingyue ask a question?"
Xu Qing nodded and said, "Of course."
Li Mingyue said: "How did Sister Su and Young Master Xu meet?"
Xu Qing couldn't help laughing when he heard this question: "This is interesting to say, I was actually a small catcher back then, and my lady came to the county government to be a head catcher at that time."
Li Mingyue asked in surprise, "Female catcher?"
Xu Qing nodded and said: "Yeah, the lady at that time was very fierce, and she liked to draw a sword to threaten people from time to time. When I first met the lady, she broke a corner of the lamp post with one hand and told me not to be her subordinate." It's okay, she doesn't force me. Mingyue, tell me, say this...is this not forcing me?"
Li Mingyue covered her mouth and smiled lightly: "It turns out that Sister Su, who looks gentle and kind now, is actually so fierce. I really can't tell."
Hearing Li Mingyue's words, Xu Qing couldn't help saying: "Gentle and kind? Alas, Mingyue was deceived by the lady, and now the lady is also very fierce! Especially at night..."
Having said that, Xu Qing unconsciously put his hands on Own's waist.
The lady at night is really fierce...
The kind of fierceness that I can't resist.
And every time the lady has the upper hand.
At this moment, a pair of hands suddenly rested on Xu Qing's shoulders, and the faint scent of a woman's body invaded Xu Qing's nostrils.
Su Qian's voice sounded from behind: "My husband just said to Mingyue Little Sister about my concubine's status?"
Without looking back, Xu Qing sat up straight and said emphatically: "Of course it means that the lady is gentle, kind, beautiful and generous. To be able to marry a wife like the lady in this life is really a blessing in eight lifetimes!"
