Chapter 43 If you want to kill him, kill him. He can handle it
. Xiao Shunzi laughed coldly after hearing what Cheng Jin said, and then looked at Cheng Jin and Chu Chengye.
"Tyrant and witch, you two are a perfect match."
"No need to say anything more, just think of me as acting on behalf of heaven. I will accept it if you want to kill me, but I am sorry that I couldn't kill this tyrant."
Xiao Shunzi didn't finish scolding.
"You only cared about poisoning this tyrant and forgot about you. You, a witch, are vicious and no different from this tyrant. If the two of you go to hell together, I'm afraid there will be no Yanluo in this world."
[No, no, it's not good! ]
Cheng Jin listened to Xiao Shunzi's words, and the alarm bells in his heart rang loudly.
[You are considered to be in cahoots with this tyrant. You should have gotten away from the tyrant and stayed away from the palace disputes, but why are you getting deeper and deeper into it?]
[I guess you will come after me next time.]
Chu Chengye couldn't help curling his lips after hearing Cheng Jin's inner voice.
He had always intended to keep Cheng Jin by his side,
so how could Cheng Jin get away? But Cheng Jin thought that since she had been scolded, she might as well just throw
it out. Since she has been scolded, she must give me something to say.
"If that's the case, then I will do as you wish."
Cheng Jin picked up Chu Chengye's short knife that he had just hidden, and waved it back and forth at Xiao Shunzi's neck.
Although there was no expression on Cheng Jin's pretty face, the words she spoke were like a sharp blade that cut into Xiao Shunzi's heart.
"Since you said that I am an unforgivable sinner, then I will certainly not let you down."
"You poisoned the emperor and insulted me and the emperor. It is not a pity if you die thousands of times. But if you are killed directly, it seems too easy for you."
"Why don't I slice off your flesh piece by piece, and then smear salt on the wounds every day." Cheng Jin made two "tsk tsk" sounds and shook his head repeatedly. "I can't imagine what that pain is like."
Xiao Shunzi was so scared after hearing Cheng Jin's words that he trembled.
"At that time, you will definitely not die, and I will not let you die. I will definitely call the best doctor to keep you alive, and turn you into a human pig when I get tired of playing with you."
Cheng Jin bent down and looked at Xiao Shunzi. His words were vicious, but his eyes were innocent. "I'm sure you will tell me when the time comes, right?"
Xiao Shunzi swallowed nervously.
Although he didn't know Cheng Jin's temper, Cheng Jin said it in front of Chu Chengye, and Chu Chengye would definitely do such a thing.
At that time, you can neither live nor die.
Xiao Shunzi gritted his teeth and hardened his heart.
In that situation, it's better to die now.
Thinking of this, Xiao Shunzi was about to bite his tongue to commit suicide.
Fortunately, Chu Chengye was quick to hold Xiao Shunzi's chin.
Xiao Shunzi was forced to open his mouth. Chu Chengye exerted a little force on his hands, and Xiao Shunzi's mouth was dislocated, so he could only open his mouth.
Chu Chengye frowned, "I haven't given you death yet, and you want to die?"
"I tell you, your life is in my hands. If I want you to die, you will definitely not live. If I let you live, you can only live well for me."
After saying that, Xiao Shunzi was thrown to the ground by Chu Chengye fiercely, and snorted coldly.
"Your mouth is really hard. I want to see whether it is your mouth that is hard or the torture instruments in the dungeon that are hard."
Chu Chengye waved his hand to let Wei An outside the door come over, "Take him to the Dali Temple and serve him well."
When Xiao Shunzi was taken away, he was still "babbling" in his mouth, but I didn't know what he was saying, it seemed like he was cursing.
Chu Chengye glanced at the three young eunuchs kneeling not far away in the room again, and ordered them to speak.
"You are a disloyal slave, and now you are sent to the Ministry of Punishment to serve hard labor."
Knowing that they were wrong, the three eunuchs didn't say anything and followed the people away.
It was better to go to the Ministry of Punishment, at least they saved their lives.
After everyone left, Chu Chengye looked at the mess on the ground and felt tired.
The ministers in the court were ambitious and hoped for his death, and even the young eunuchs serving beside him had the same idea.
Cheng Jin was still thinking about what Xiao Shunzi had just said.
[I didn't expect that the villain was me. ]
[If she follows Chu Chengye again, I'm afraid she won't be able to clear her name in this life, let alone leave the palace. ]
[If Chu Chengye dies there, she will be buried with him here. Cheng Jin
wanted to cry but had no tears. What was going on? How did the plot develop to this point?
She didn't know how long Chu Chengye could live, and how long she could live with him.
Chu Chengye replied to Cheng Jin in his heart:
If I live to be a hundred years old, you will also live to be a hundred years old. If I really don't have that blessing, I will naturally send you out of the palace.
However, Cheng Jin's constant mention of "tyrant" really annoyed him, and he just wanted to divert Cheng Jin's attention.
Chu Chengye suddenly spoke up to disrupt Cheng Jin's wild thoughts, "Concubine Rong was really in a good mood just now."
Cheng Jin thought of how she had threatened Xiao Shunzi just now, and looked at Chu Chengye pretending to be innocent.
"I've been with the emperor for a long time, so I've naturally been influenced by him, but I'm not even one tenth of his courage."
Chu Chengye raised his eyebrows and looked at Cheng Jin with a little interest, "Am I usually like this?"
Cheng Jin shook her head on the surface, but nodded frantically in her heart.
"It's your fault. The emperor is kind and tolerant, how could he be like this."
[Isn't it you? ]
[You commit suicide all the time, and I'm afraid of being struck by lightning even if you
say you're kind. ] [God, I don't want to say this. ]
[If I'm going to be struck by lightning because I lied, then let Chu Chengye be struck, he can handle it. ]
Chu Chengye: "..."
In order to avoid Chu Chengye continuing to ask this question, and Cheng Jin still lying against her conscience, which would increase the possibility of being struck by lightning, Cheng Jin quickly changed the subject.
"Your Majesty, there is something I don't understand."
Chu Chengye nodded slightly, "Speak."
"That Xiao Shunzi admitted that you had done him a favor, so where did he get such hatred from?"
Chu Chengye was silent for a while, "I just felt familiar with him, but now I remember that Xiao Shunzi had a sister who worked in the palace."
Cheng Jin realized where Xiao Shunzi got such a big grudge from.
Well, her sister was doing a good job in the palace, and suddenly she was executed by you. Who wouldn't be angry?
The book said that Chu Chengye replaced the palace maids and eunuchs with clean ones when he just took office. Although he didn't explicitly order the execution, those people seemed to have disappeared out of thin air, and no one had seen them.
This tyrant probably has nothing to do. Why would he touch those people for no reason? Wouldn't he just bring hatred upon himself?
Cheng Jin complained in his heart, and Chu Chengye listened as well. There was no expression on his face. It was unknown what he was thinking.
When he first ascended the throne, he only wanted to deal with the remnants of the previous dynasty. He was afraid that those palace maids and eunuchs might have ulterior motives, so he just sent them away. Who could have thought that he would dig such a big hole for himself now.
"I just arranged them casually at the beginning. Who knows whether they are alive or dead now?"
Cheng Jin looked at Chu Chengye's pensive expression and suddenly woke up, "Your Majesty, I'm afraid that Xiao Shunzi's sister is not dead."
