Chapter 61 Killing Wife and Daughter
Hearing General An scolding An Yunxi as a bastard, An Yunhe's eyes were filled with a gloomy color.
An Yunxi was inside the room, and An Yunhe was at the door, with some guards from the general's mansion between them.
She saw her third brother pull out a dagger from his sleeve.
An Yunxi's eyes widened instantly.
"Third brother, don't be impulsive!"
An Yunhe doesn't know martial arts at all.
What if he suddenly takes a knife and hurts himself!
General An saw the shining blade in An Yunhe's hand, and his temper instantly came up.
"Are you going to attack this general too?"
An Yunhe didn't say anything.
But he already had an idea in his mind.
In order to let his sister get rid of this man completely, he can reveal his identity and let the assassins around him kill him here today.
As long as General An or the people around him dare to kill him, those assassins will definitely kill them all, leaving no one alive!
However, after this matter is over, he will be charged with the crime of killing his biological father, and then he can no longer stay with Xier, and can only leave here with the assassins.
He doesn't want to leave unless it is absolutely necessary
. Just when An Yunhe was hesitating.
A guard ran out of the door: "Report to the general, there are many people from the government office outside the door. They said that someone reported to the official that there was an assassin in the mansion!"
General An's expression changed.
"Who from the government office reported to the authorities?"
An Yunhe raised his eyes, "It was me."
General An glared at An Yunhe with disappointment on his face, but his eyes turned cold in an instant.
"Everyone follow this general to greet them. As for An Yunxi and Du, arrange a few people to watch them and don't let them leave this room."
"Yes, general!"
Du was so angry that tears filled her eyes when she saw that General An had his men monitor her and Yunxi.
She held her daughter's hand tightly, her wrist trembling, and her expression was full of worry.
An Yunhe immediately came to the two of them, "Xi'er, the assassin has been killed by the prince, and he asked me to bring the body to you."
She helped her mother sit on a chair beside her, and then gently stretched the muscles of her wrist.
After listening to the third brother's story, An Yunxi was thoughtful, and a look of enlightenment suddenly appeared in her eyes.
"I know, third brother, it's a good thing that you are here, you help me guard mother, I'll go out and take a look."
An Yunhe was shocked: "There are guards outside, will you be in danger if you go out?"
An Yunxi shook her head: "No, I have a way."
She picked up a chair and smashed it against the window.
With a clang, the window frame shattered. The guards outside were startled and ran to the window, drew their knives, and looked at the room vigilantly.
An Yunxi moved to the window and smiled at them.
She was already extremely beautiful, and this smile was even more charming, which made the guards' hands holding the knives pause.
"Miss, the general has ordered that you cannot leave."
One of them said politely.
Although they didn't know what happened to the An family, they were the general's subordinates
. An Yunxi hooked her finger at one of them.
"Come closer."
The man looked alert, but hesitantly took a few steps forward. After all, An Yunxi was good-looking and had no weapons in her hands, so she didn't look threatening.
Several people next to them were still staring at this place with knives in their hands. If something unexpected happened, they would definitely rush forward.
"Why are you so nervous? I want to show you this."
As she spoke, An Yunxi took out a 100-liang silver note from her arms.
These guards only received three liang of silver a month.
Seeing the 100-liang note, the approaching guard swallowed subconsciously.
An Yunxi smiled and said, "There are more here."
She counted the number of people outside.
"A total of 500 liang, you can take it and divide it. If the work is done well, I will give you another 100 liang each. What do you think?"
This 100 liang is their monthly salary for two or three years.
The eyes of these people lit up instantly, and they all showed hesitation. They worked for the general's mansion, and An Yunxi was also a lady of the general's mansion.
"Miss, what do you plan to let us do?"
"It's not a difficult task. Let me go out to see the official, and you will be responsible for telling the government everything that happened just now. It's that simple."
The leading little guard was shocked: "But in that case, won't we offend the general?"
An Yunxi smiled and said, "My uncle is the Marquis of Anguo. Do you think that if the Marquis of Anguo knew about this incident today, would he let him go? Is it to help me, or to help a dying man? You guys can decide."
The guards were conflicted and showed hesitation on their faces.
At this time, General An was receiving several people from the government office to investigate the assassin.
The corpse was placed among the crowd.
Ling Fengxun, dressed in brocade and jade belt, stood at the front of the group of people in the government office, his face was frosty and his expression was cold.
General An was polite and respectful at this moment.
"Why do you bother to come here in person for such a small matter?"
Ling Fengxun opened his thin lips slightly, his voice was icy.
"Who does this man want to assassinate?"
General An hurriedly said, "Of course he wants to assassinate"
"The person he wants to assassinate is me!"
An Yunxi suddenly spoke from behind.
Then, under the surprised eyes of everyone, she squeezed out of the crowd and came in front of Ling Fengxun, and saluted in full view of everyone.
"Your Highness, I was the one who reported to the police. This man was with General An. It was my father who wanted to kill me. No, he not only wanted to kill me, but also my mother and my brother. I escaped with great difficulty. Please help me, Your Highness!"
An Yunxi looked flustered and pitiful. She
tearfully recounted the cruel and inhumane behavior of General An!
General An was stunned. He did not expect An Yunxi to say such a thing.
"What nonsense are you talking about?"
He immediately turned around and said to Ling Fengxun, "Your Highness, I was just joking. How could I kill my wife and daughter!"
An Yunxi glanced at the guards who came with her and stood behind An Qing.
"This is absolutely true, they all saw it with their own eyes!"
The guards pointed by An Yunxi immediately showed a slightly panicked expression on their faces.
Ling Fengxun raised his eyes and looked at those people, his eyes were full of intimidation.
"Is what Miss An said true?"
General An was shocked. He glanced at his subordinates with a grim look and an extremely cold tone.
"Whether you saw it or not, you must tell the prince the truth. You can't lie at all. Do you understand?"
His words were a reminder and a threat.
The guards knelt on the ground trembling, and then spoke in unison.
"I saw it with my own eyes. After the young lady exposed the assassination, General An was so angry that he swung his knife himself. If the young lady had not dodged quickly, she would have been dead by now."
When General An heard this, it was as if a thunderbolt exploded in his mind.
He said in a gloomy voice: "What are you talking about?"
