Chapter 55: Scared Li Xiaowan



"I have nothing to say, just kill me!

Humph, but don't be too proud, sooner or later you will end up like Eunuch Xu."

Xiao Zhuzi did not deny it at all.

"You have some backbone, but you are too stupid to do things."

Xing Bang was a little surprised that Xiao Zhuzi didn't beg for mercy.

"Humph, now that things have come to this, stop talking nonsense. You can kill me or chop me up as you like."

Xing Bang snorted coldly, "You are so bold. If you say that you are the only one who dares to act so blatantly without any accomplices, do you think I will believe it?"

Xing Bang said this and looked at the cook eunuch. He noticed that he had been keeping his head down since he entered the room, and he became a little uneasy after saying this.

"Okay, let him go."

Xing Bang said to the cook who was holding Xiao Zhuzi down. After the latter stood up, he said timidly, "If you have nothing else to do, I will take my leave first."

Xing Bang snorted coldly, "You have made such a great contribution, which is equivalent to indirectly saving my life, and I haven't rewarded you yet."

"This is what I should do. I dare not ask for a reward from you, my Lord."

At this moment.

Xiao Zhuzi suddenly jumped up from the ground and charged at Xing Bang, shouting, "I'll fight you!"

The next second, Xiao Zhuzi flew backwards, fell heavily to the ground, and then spat out a mouthful of blood.

“You don’t know your own limitations!”

Xing Bang didn't use any strength at all, he just kicked casually. If he used more force, Xiao Zhu would have died instantly.

Xiao Zhuzi looked at Xing Bang in disbelief, obviously unable to believe that he had such skills.

Xiao Jinzi was also very surprised. The cook eunuch was stunned for a moment and then fell to his knees in fear.

"I deserve to die. I was blinded by Xiaozhu's banknotes. Please spare my life, sir."

As he spoke, the cook eunuch took out a silver note from his bosom. Xiao Jinzi took it and handed it to Xing Bang.

Xing Bang glanced at the banknotes and sneered, "One thousand taels? Xiao Zhuzi, you are really generous."

"Sir, Xiao Zhuzi has a lot of silver notes hidden on him. I saw it when he took it out. He said he would give me another 5,000 taels after the matter is done."

The cook had no other choice and explained everything.

Xing Bang was not surprised at all that Xiao Zhuzi could bribe the cook eunuch, after all, they had worked for Xu Guang before so they had some relationship. Moreover, this cook only worked in the small kitchen of the Baoshi Office and was relatively free on weekdays. He should be grateful for Xu Guang's kindness, so he was so happy to bribe him for the sake of money.

The mistake of the two was that they underestimated Xing Bang. After all, he was just a low-key eunuch who had just entered the palace not long ago.

A new emperor appoints new ministers. Now that I have taken over the torture chamber, it’s time to clean up the people around me.

"Since you confessed voluntarily, I will let you die quickly!"

The cook eunuch was stunned for just a moment when Xing Bang hit him on the head, and his brain burst into blood.

Xing Bang didn't use anything too terrifying. In his eyes, Xiao Zhuzi was already a dead man. This move was also meant to intimidate Xiao Jinzi.

Xiao Jinzi's eyes widened. He had seen Xu Guang slap a maid to death before, but compared to Xing Bang's slap, it was much softer...

How could I not tremble in my heart? I never expected Xing Bang to be so cruel and ruthless. I can't betray him. It's creepy to think about it!

Xiao Zhuzi's expression wasn't much better either, he was swallowing his saliva in fear, thinking that he might be the next one to be hit...

"Xiao Zhuzi, you don't have to be too scared, you can't enjoy this kind of pleasure yet!

I haven't seen the torture instruments in our torture chamber yet, so I'll take you to the disciplinary room and try out all of them."

The disciplinary room in the torture chamber was specifically used to punish those disobedient or criminal women who had made mistakes, and of course, it also included the maids and eunuchs who worked in the torture chamber.

Although most of these torture instruments are prepared for women, it seems more interesting to use them on men.

When Xiao Zhuzi heard this, he was really scared and immediately became a coward.

"Sir, please give me a quick death. I am willing to give you all the banknotes left by Eunuch Xu!"

Xing Bang sneered, "You have no room to bargain with me, but I want to see how much money you can come up with to see if it's enough to buy you a good time."

Xiao Zhuzi took out 20,000 taels of silver notes from his pocket, and then said: "Not only that, there are another 50,000 taels hidden somewhere else.

I don’t know if these are enough to give me a good time!”

Xing Bang really didn't expect that Xu Guang had made so much silver. It should be all of Xu Guang's fortune. It was already a pleasant surprise to get so much silver. How Xiao Zhuzi died was no longer important to him, and there was no need to spend so much effort on it.

After Xing Bang received the banknotes, he suddenly thought of a question, "Xiao Zhuzi, you are just a eunuch, why did Xu Guang give all these banknotes to you?"

"Eunuch Xu is my distant cousin. Because I was involved in a murder case in my hometown, I had no choice but to seek refuge with him and become a eunuch in the palace. He gave me all the silver on the night of his accident. The reason I killed you was because Eunuch Xu asked me to do whatever it took to get rid of the person who took his place if he really got into trouble."

"No wonder you were valued by Xu Guang as soon as you entered the palace. It turns out that this is the relationship..."

Xiao Jinzi looked as if he had suddenly understood something.

Xing Bang did not dwell on these issues. He thought about how Xu Guang had mentioned this issue when he came to see him that night. Killing him might give him a chance to survive. He told Xiao Zhuzi these things as a last resort. It was not difficult to understand that whoever took over his position would be killed to avenge him.

"Let me ask you again, where does arsenic come from?"

"It was done by the medical department. I gave Xiao Niuzi five thousand taels of silver and asked him to steal it."

It turned out to be from the medical department. You little bastard, let’s see if you can survive.

"Xiao Jinzi, let him take you to get the silver back."

"Yes, Master Xing!"

After receiving the order, Xiao Jinzi grabbed Xiao Zhuzi's clothes and said viciously, "Get up and take me there!"

Xiao Zhuzi looked at Xing Bang and saw his lips trembling a few times, but he still didn't say anything. He let out a long breath, then covered his chest, hunched over, and went out with Xiao Jinzi.

Xing Bang knew what he wanted to say, and luckily the boy understood it and knew that it was useless to say anything. He had no say over it. He could only hope that after seeing the silver, Xing Bang would show mercy and give him a quick death.

It didn't take long for the two men to come back. Xiao Jinzi directly handed the 50,000 taels of silver to Xing Bang. Xiao Zhuzi had already lost all hope and was waiting to die.

The banknotes were hidden in the place where the paint was poured in the sun drying area, which was also the place where Nangong Xue and Xing Bang threw the corpse.

It is indeed a good place, but it is dirty, smelly and generally no one goes there.

At this time, Li Xiaowan woke up and walked out, and saw the body on the ground...

With a cry of surprise, he went straight into Xing Bang's arms...
