Chapter 33 Revealing Your Identity
The scene was very chaotic. The thugs broke into the wonton stall, overturned the stall and the stove, and shouted angrily for protection money.
The boss lady's son argued with reason and had a conflict with the other party.
But the other side was outnumbered and powerful, and he was quickly knocked to the ground by them.
When the boss lady saw her son being beaten, she rushed over to stop him.
The stick hit her directly on the head, blood spurted out, and she died on the spot.
After the other person died, her life began to be slowly recalled by the passive illumination technique, but Xiao Tu did not continue watching.
The proprietress was not one of her objects of entertainment, so she had no intention of intruding into her privacy!
At this time, a group of thugs came forward, slamming wooden sticks on the table, and said fiercely, "Widow Cui, your family should pay protection money."
The wonton-cooking boy rushed over at this moment, protecting his mother while glaring coldly at the newcomer, "We just paid the protection fee a few days ago."
The leading thug laughed shamelessly, "It was just handed over, who did you hand it over to? We brothers didn't see it!"
The young man was very angry when he heard this. It was clearly these people who came to collect protection money a few days ago, but now they are denying it. They dare to blackmail them so blatantly just because they think they are orphans and widows.
Cui Ziyu didn't want to cause trouble. If he could tolerate it, he would swallow his anger this time as he did before.
But he and his mother didn't have any extra money, and the only few taels of silver they had left were used to buy medicine for his mother.
He gritted his teeth and tried to reason with the other party.
But this group of people are capable of extortion, so how could they possibly listen to him?
When the leader saw that he didn't want to give the money, he immediately started to hit him with a stick, grinning.
At this moment, there was a sudden knock on the table.
"Hey, have any of you seen me sitting here?"
The leading thug paused and turned to look towards the source of the sound.
Just a few steps away, I saw a woman sitting at a small broken table. She was wearing a bright red dress and was extremely beautiful.
The gang leader's eyes lit up, and the four big words "bad intentions" popped up above his head.
He walked forward with a lewd smile, "Hey, where did this little beauty come from? Let me take good care of you..."
“Pah.”
Xiao Tu raised her hand and slapped the man, then looked at the stunned man and said with a curved red lip, "Do you know who I am? How dare you say such things?"
The thug covered his face in a daze, and asked in some confusion, "Who are you?"
Xiao Tu raised her chin and said, "Xiao Zhi, reveal your identity."
Xiaozhi stepped forward, took out the five-tailed golden and red phoenix token from her arms, and said coldly, "Look carefully, this is the Jade Princess of the Zhenguo Palace."
The hooligans didn't have much knowledge, but they still recognized the phoenix logo and the words on the token.
All of a sudden, everyone was so scared that their legs went limp, and they all fell to their knees on the ground with a "thump, thump".
The gang leader who was about to tease Xiao Tu was paralyzed on the ground.
Xiao Tu crossed his legs, looking as arrogant as a villain could be.
"Are you scared now?"
Everyone trembled and dared not speak.
Xiao Tu continued, "Do you know what happens to those who offend this princess?"
Everyone didn't know, but when they heard this, their faces turned pale with fear. As expected, the woman said with a sneer, "That means death."
The thugs were terrified when they heard this and immediately began to kowtow, "Princess Jade, please spare us, Princess Jade, please spare us!"
Xiao Tu's expression was arrogant, and his tone was extremely bad. "If you want me to spare you, it's not impossible. First, pull out the tongue of this leader who just teased my princess!"
Everyone was horrified when they heard this. These thugs had never done such a cruel thing.
The gang leader was also scared. This is the world of the rich. It is so easy to take someone's life.
Xiao Tu's face turned cold at this moment, "Why don't you want to do it? Then you are all dead."
The thugs looked around and finally couldn't bear the threat of death. They stood up and rushed towards their boss, shouting "Ahhh".
A group of people rushed over and tried to pull out his tongue. The gang leader was almost scared to death. He kicked and punched the people who rushed over, and was also beaten by them.
The gang leader was outnumbered ten to one and soon his face was bruised and his body covered with wounds, but he didn't dare to stop. He faced more than ten pairs of fists and spit out a lot of blood. He struggled desperately to break out of the encirclement and then fled without looking back.
He couldn't stay in this place any longer, otherwise the vicious Princess Jade would definitely not let him go.
The gang leader didn't even go home and fled straight out of the city gate.
The boss ran away and they failed to complete the mission. The remaining people knelt down again in fear.
Xiao Tu crossed her legs and swung them. "You're useless. You can't even handle such a small matter. Okay, you two can break each other's legs. I won't care about this matter."
The gangster was overjoyed when he heard this. Although his leg was broken, his life was saved.
Besides, legs and feet broken by sticks will not necessarily become lame as long as they are taken good care of.
Everyone stood up, took back their weapons, and took turns breaking their companions' legs.
Xiao Tu waved his hand with satisfaction, "Go away."
Upon hearing this, a group of lame people left here as quickly as possible.
After everyone left, the proprietress pulled the young man to his knees and said, "Thank you, Princess Jade. Thank you, Princess Jade."
Xiao Tu laughed, "Don't be polite, Auntie. My wontons are about to rot."
"Hey, hey, hey," the proprietress rubbed her tears and laughed, and hurriedly pulled her son to stand up.
The young man raised his eyes, his handsome yet childish face filled with gratitude. "Thank you, Princess, for your kindness today. These bad guys will definitely not dare to cause trouble again. However, if word gets out that you're going to punish them, I wonder if it will be a problem for you."
After all, things like pulling out tongues and breaking legs are definitely bad for your reputation, Princess. Of course, I know that Princess was just trying to scare them. It's all my fault. If I had reminded Princess in time, you should have sent them to the authorities. That way, the bad guys would have been punished and you wouldn't have been gossiped about. " Her eyes were filled with worry as she spoke.
Xiao Tu suddenly smiled when she heard this. She lifted her cheeks and looked at the handsome young man with her beautiful eyes. She said, "Thugs like this who dare to extort money on the street usually have connections in the government. So if I send them to the government, they may not be punished.
Of course, I can use my status as a princess to put pressure on them, but how many years will a group of hooligans who extort money be sentenced to? I'm afraid they won't even be released in a month.
Or if their relatives are willing to pay for their redemption, they should be released immediately. So sending them to the government is the cheapest way for them. If I do that, you will be truly unhappy.
Xiao Tu leaned over and smiled in his ear, "You clearly want to skin me alive, pull out my tendons, and kill me, little brother."
Cui Ziyu's sunny smile froze, a hint of gloom clearly flashed across his clear eyes, and then he lowered his head.
