MTL - After Reincarnating, an Evil Consort Only Wants to Torture Scums-Chapter 521 523: Xiao Mansion Destruction
The emperor asked the second prince, the third prince and the fifth prince to go to Changcheng together. Although none of them were allowed to lead the army, but if the management was successful, it was also an opportunity to win people's hearts. It's more muddy, so as to pave the way for the Eighth Prince.
Since this is the case, then find a way to remove the stumbling block first, and then cut down the big tree in front of you.
The Minister of the Ministry of Industry said without hesitation: "What Xiangye said is that the lower officials don't think well."
"You guard the Ministry of War well. Don't worry about other things. When you need to take action, I will naturally tell you." Liu Xiang said "I value you" and patted the Minister of the Ministry of Industry on the shoulder.
The Minister of the Ministry of Industry saw this, and immediately responded excitedly: "Yes, Mr. Xiang."
…
night, very deep.
In the sky as thick as ink, not even a crescent moon or a starlight appeared.
The wind, blowing swiftly and strongly, with a twisting force, savagely swept through every street in the capital, raging, vowing to destroy something.
Tonight is destined to be an uneasy night.
Xiao Mansion, Xiao Muheng walked quickly in the yard after taking Wushisan. It was cold at night, but he was only wearing a thin coat.
Seeing that he was walking away, the servants ran away one after another, not daring to approach Xiao Muheng.
Since the eldest young master took Wushi powder, his whole person has become cloudy and uncertain, and his gentle and kind temperament in the past has completely disappeared. In just such a month, several servants who served improperly have been executed.
People in the mansion were panicked, and the servants were tense every day, fearing that they would offend Xiao Muheng if they were not careful, and even lose their lives.
The mansion that was so lively every day has become lifeless now.
Although Master Xiao and Mrs. Xiao feel sorry for their son being abused by Wushisan, they are still afraid of his son's tyrannical character.
Suddenly, a shrill scream sounded in the quiet night sky.
Xiao Muheng paused, and a gloomy look flashed across his face, which had become thin due to the poison of Wu Shisan, and he was no longer handsome and unrestrained.
"Go and see what's going on."
He instructed the valet beside him.
The boy responded and walked towards the direction of the sound.
But not far away, a figure suddenly appeared, Xiao Muheng only felt a flash of cold light in front of his eyes, the next moment the servant screamed, and then he fell into a pool of blood.
Xiao Muheng looked at the scene in front of him in shock, his mind went blank with a bang.
Kill...Kill!
After the man killed the boy, he seemed to be feeling it, and his vicious gaze like a poisonous snake locked on Xiao Muheng, as if an invisible big hand grabbed his neck forcefully, making him terrified.
"You... who are you..."
Xiao Muheng asked with a trembling voice.
He yelled in his heart to run away quickly, but his legs seemed to be nailed to the ground, unable to move, shaking like chaff.
The man smiled sullenly: "The one who wants to kill you."
After finishing speaking, he chased Xiao Muheng with a knife in his hand.
Xiao Muheng's complexion suddenly changed, he turned around and ran while suppressing the fear in his heart, but he staggered and fell to the ground before he could get up, and stepped on his back with one foot.
"You son of a bitch, run, run again."
Xiao Muheng shouted in panic: "Don't kill me, don't kill me, I'll give you money, as long as you let me go, you don't have any problem with it."
"Money?" Hearing this, the man's eyes shone with excitement and cruelty: "When I kill everyone, all your money will be ours, and you will still have to give it to me."
After finishing speaking, the man took a knife and wiped Xiao Muheng's neck vigorously...
"go to hell!"
Xiao Muheng had to say one more word in the future, his head hit the ground heavily, his pupils suddenly dilated, as if he never thought that he would die so suddenly.
Seeing that Xiao Muheng had lost his breath, the man let go of his feet, wiped the blood-stained knife on Xiao Muheng's body, and then left.
When the first ray of sunshine rose in the morning, Jingzhao Mansion received a report from the people.
A tragedy happened in the Xiao Mansion, and the family was wiped out overnight, leaving no one alive.
Even if it is just an ordinary merchant, such a tragedy of extermination is no longer something that Jingzhao Mansion can handle, let alone Xiao Muheng is the son-in-law of Liu Xiang, the matter is even more serious.
Lu Mansion.
Lu Xiang and his brothers and sisters even had breakfast with the old lady at Fuyuan Hall, when they suddenly saw Manager Du coming to report in a hurry.
"Slave pays respects to the old lady."
The old lady nodded to signal him to excuse herself, and asked, "What's wrong?"
Guard Du looked at Lu Chao and said, "Young Master, the Yamen from Jingzhao Mansion has come and said that there has been a serious case in Xiao Mansion, and the Marquis of Wu An urgently summoned you to the scene."
After the words fell, everyone in the room looked at him.
Lu Xiang asked: "What's the case in Xiao's residence?"
"I heard that a group of bandits broke into Xiao's mansion last night and killed dozens of people in Xiao's mansion for money." Du Guanshi replied, his face was full of sorrow, who would have thought that the son-in-law of the dignified prime minister It's such a bad luck, the whole family was wiped out, it's too miserable.
Lu Xiang looked at Guanshi Du in shock, and forgot to come back to his senses for a while.
Lu Chao didn't care about eating, so he hurriedly talked to the old lady and left in a hurry.
The room was quiet for a while, and a pin drop could be heard.
Not only Lu Xiang was shocked, but everyone else was dumbfounded when they heard this.
After a long while, the old lady came back to her senses, and said quietly: "This...are the bandits so rampant these days, actually committing crimes in the capital?"
This time it’s the Xiao’s Mansion. If you don’t arrest the person quickly, you don’t know which house will be destroyed next time.
Thinking of this, the old lady couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat: "Jingru, can you see if it would be better for our mansion to invite some guards back?"
Although there are quite a few strong servants in the mansion, if you run into those gangsters, there probably aren't enough people to fill your teeth.
Qiao Jingru replied without hesitation: "Yes, grandma, I will do it now."
As he spoke, he didn't even bother to eat breakfast, and turned to leave.
Hearing what the old lady said, Lu Xiang comforted her: "Grandmother, don't worry, the extermination of Xiao's family is a big case, and the court will not ignore it. The capital will definitely be under martial law next time, and those bandits won't stay in the city waiting to be caught after they get rich. , this kind of thing won't happen again.
She said this, but her heart was full of indifference and happiness.
Heh, the crown prince Shaofu who had a great reputation in his previous life has fallen to such a situation in this life. Even though she helped to make things worse, who can say that this is not karma.
The cause of the previous life, the result of this life.
Bandits?
The capital city is under the foot of the emperor, and the governance is strict. It is easy for bandits to kill a person. If there is no one behind the door to destroy a family, how can they kill quietly and get away with it.
Liu Xiang may not care about Liu Anhui's life or death, but he will never allow others to destroy his chess pieces.
Since Xiao Muheng is addicted to drugs, he has no use value in itself. Maybe even the Liu family will be affected if someone finds out.
