Chapter 121 Slaves
Looking at Xie Lao's expression, I thought he was just joking, but I never thought he really had it in mind.
Xie Wanyi couldn't help but feel a little worried, thinking that if the woman who had a conflict with her before was really the eldest princess, would her elder brother still have a chance?
"Big brother, we have two princesses in the Great Yi Dynasty. One is the eldest princess who is born to the same mother as the current emperor, but she already has a husband. The other little princess...sigh..."
Xie Yun's fingers holding the cake tightened a little, and Xie Lao asked anxiously: "What happened to the other one?"
Xie Wanyi: "The other one was found not long ago, but for some unknown reason, he had already died. It is said that he was sent to death by the eldest princess herself..."
Hearing this, the cake in Xie Yun's hand fell to the ground, and Xie Lao leaned on the stone table with both hands in disbelief.
The blood drained from their faces and they turned pale.
Xie Lao muttered to himself: "No... Impossible... How could Ah Man die..."
Xie Wanyi didn't hear his words clearly, she just looked at the two of them worriedly: "Big brother, second brother, you guys are not going to have anything to do with that little princess..."
Xie Luo interrupted her coldly: "Little sister, do you know where the princess's residence is?"
Xie Wanyi was a little frightened by his expression: "Brother, what do you want to do? Even if you have feelings for the little princess, you can't do something stupid without caring about your own life!"
Xie Yun: "Yeah, brother, maybe that little princess is not necessarily the one we are looking for, maybe..."
Xie Luo snorted coldly and asked, "How could she be so kind as to kill someone?"
Xie Yun paused, opened his mouth, and finally swallowed his words.
Xie Wanyi said cautiously: "It's not necessarily the eldest princess's fault... maybe... the little princess committed some unforgivable crime, otherwise she wouldn't have ended up like this..."
Hearing this, Xie Luo's face became even gloomier: "No matter what her fault was, she is still her blood sister. As the eldest princess of a country, she is so cruel and vicious. She is totally unworthy of the position!"
Xie Yun knew that he was very angry at the moment and couldn't be persuaded easily, so he could only change the subject first.
"Sister, have you seen the eldest princess and the youngest princess? Do you know what they look like?"
Xie Wanyi shook her head, feeling a little distressed: "I was traveling outside before and only returned home two days ago. I haven't seen the little princess. As for the eldest princess... I'm not sure..."
"But I heard from others that the eldest princess and the young princess look somewhat similar, but the eldest princess is more beautiful."
Xie Luo snorted coldly: "Femme Fatale!"
Xie Wanyi advised, "Big brother, don't be impulsive. Hurting the princess is a serious crime of treason, which is punishable by death! The family of the Minister of War was implicated and thrown into prison because their illegitimate son assassinated the princess..."
Xie Lao was silent for a moment, then stood up and picked up the sword leaning against the stone table.
This was a first meeting gift that Xiao Yao had specially found for him when he and Xie Yun had just returned to the Xie family. He liked it very much and thought it was rare.
"Don't worry, little sister. I won't act impulsively."
The most important thing now is the Autumn Examination. As long as the two brothers win the first place in the Autumn Examination and officially enter the officialdom, they will not be afraid of not having the opportunity to take revenge.
One day, he will hold power in his hands, avenge Ah Man, and make that vicious and cruel woman pay the price.
Even if she was the noble eldest princess, he would definitely drag her into the endless abyss...
Since giving the list of corrupt officials and secret agents to Lin Xu and Wuming, and giving the report on the disaster to Qi Junqi.
Qi Yue acted badly again. After visiting Qi Junqi and Queen Wang in the palace for two days, she retreated back to her own princess mansion and became a useless person.
Apart from missing Wuming quite a bit during the day, I wondered whether he had come back after I did what Yibai said in the letter last time.
If I had known that both tasks would be left to Linxu alone, I should have detained Wuming in the mansion first.
If anything goes wrong with him, then her precious Yibai will never come back!
Qi Yue felt a little irritated, and the book in his hand was no longer interesting.
"Helu, haven't Wuming and the others come back yet?"
He Lu replied while fanning herself with a palm-leaf fan, "Princess, Master Ming and Master Lin have never returned home."
"Princess, are you missing the two young masters? Do you need me to send someone to look for them?"
"No, let's wait until they get things done. The overall situation is more important."
The more she read the storybook, the more boring it seemed to her, so she simply gave up reading it.
"Help me change my clothes. Let's go out for a walk and bring back some more fashionable and exciting storybooks."
He Lu put down the palm-leaf fan and helped her to dress and put on makeup.
The two first took a carriage to Qiufangzhai in the south of the city to buy a lot of cakes, and then went to Jinyumantang to check the fundraising situation of the previous auction.
After bidding farewell to the owner of the Jin Yu Man Tang store, Qi Yue returned to the carriage.
As soon as he entered the carriage, a dagger was pressed against his lower back.
"Don't talk, or I'll kill you."
He Xiang is still resting in bed. Leng Yue is going to be transferred to the Ming Guard, but Qi Junqi thinks her strength is not enough, so he sends her back to the Dark Guard Camp for retraining.
The secret guard who was temporarily sent here was called Jiyue, and he was a male secret guard.
Generally speaking, he would not show up unless Qi Yue called someone.
So at this moment when she was held hostage, still no one showed up to save her.
Qi Yue was wearing a veil at the moment, covering half of her face. She just felt that the voice of the person behind her seemed a little bit familiar.
At this moment, there was a sudden noise outside the carriage.
A brothel owner who was over fifty years old and a group of burly men stopped the carriage.
Madam Hua glanced at the carriage and asked the thug beside her suspiciously, "Are you sure that boy got into this carriage?"
The thug lowered his voice and said, "I saw that the door was clear, and it was drilled in here!"
He Lu knew that this group of people were not good people, and she shouted at them: "Who are you? How dare you stop my young lady's carriage? Believe it or not, my young lady will send you directly to the Dali Temple at the command of my young lady!"
Madam Hua frowned slightly. Seeing He Lu's attitude, she didn't dare to offend her easily.
After all, in the city of Kyoto, you can run into an official every two steps you take, and there are many young ladies from official families.
She immediately put on a flattering smile and said, "Girl, please don't misunderstand me. This is what happened. A servant in my family stole some silver, beat someone up, and ran away."
"It just so happens that my men seemed to have seen the servant get into your carriage, and they were afraid that the servant was really in the carriage. If he hurt your young lady, it would be a real sin..."
He Lu looked doubtful, but she didn't dare to joke about Qi Yue's safety.
"Wait a minute..."
Hearing the noise outside, the people behind became very nervous.
Qi Yue lowered her voice and said, "Move your dagger away. If you hurt me, you won't be able to escape!"
