Chapter 84 Killing Her Husband!
Shen Xiao suddenly grabbed Li Shi's hand, "Do you... know what you're doing?..."
Li did not answer, but looked at him with deep affection.
One who had been scheming.
One who already harbored feelings of love and resentment.
They both understood the emotions in each other's eyes.
The feelings were very strong...
They want to get to know each other better in this ancestral hall!
The desktop is cold.
This contrasted sharply with the two people's burning hot bodies.
The brush, ink, paper, and inkstone that Shen Xiao used to write the Classic of Filial Piety were swept to the ground with a clattering sound.
The sound was particularly jarring in the quiet night, yet it was more like a drumbeat to liven things up.
Shen Xiao was young, three years younger than the thirty-five-year-old Li Shi.
In addition, his years of martial arts training have made him physically strong, far superior to the weak and scholarly Shen Yan.
Li experienced unprecedented joy and excitement with Shen Xiao.
It was a soul-stirring, bone-melting experience that made even the soul tremble...
The Li family took revenge on Shen Yan.
He found a woman named Wang Lian'er to humiliate her.
She then found a man who could humiliate Shen Yan even more.
The night was thick.
This obscured the springtime beauty of this corner of the Hou Mansion ancestral hall.
at the same time.
It also ignited a fuse that could push the entire Zhenguo Marquis's Mansion into an abyss of no return!
After it's over.
The ancestral hall was filled with an ambiguous atmosphere between men and women, mixed with sweat and the faint, feminine fragrance emanating from Li Shi.
Suddenly, Madam Li raised her head and whispered to the man, "Kill me!"
Shen Xiao was startled, almost thinking he had misheard.
"……What?"
Shen Xiao's eyes instantly reddened: "You...do you regret it?"
His heart felt as if it were being gripped tightly by an invisible hand; the joy and satisfaction he had felt moments before vanished instantly, leaving only panic.
Li slowly shook her head: "No, I don't regret it."
"Then why are you seeking death?" Shen Xiao asked, somewhat annoyed. "Didn't you regret sleeping with me?"
Li Shi looked out the window at the deep night: "Tomorrow night is the day Shen Yan will come to my room."
He paused for a moment.
Fearing the rough man before her might not understand, Madam Li added, "I'm afraid he'll see the red marks on my body... In that case, neither of us will escape death."
The Marquis's family had strict rules.
If this happens, not to mention their lives.
Even their families might be implicated.
For example, the Li family.
For example, Shen Xiao's maternal grandparents' family.
Li has already dragged people onto the pirate ship before analyzing the pros and cons.
This is also forcing Shen Xiao to make a choice!
Shen Xiao fell silent.
He was no fool and naturally understood the seriousness of Li's words.
But he didn't regret his crazy actions just now!
He looked at Li Shi, whose eyes were full of seductive charm.
A bold and crazy idea crept into his mind like a venomous snake.
Strike first, strike hard!
Shen Xiao's voice carried a desperate ruthlessness, "Why don't we...why don't we...kill Shen Yan?"
This statement perfectly expresses what Li was thinking.
That might very well be her purpose in coming here tonight to seduce someone!
A charming smile bloomed on Li's face.
That smile was like a datura flower suddenly blooming, beautiful yet deadly poison.
She stretched out her slender fingers and gently stroked Shen Xiao's tense cheek: "Second Uncle, are you confident? We... don't have much time left."
This time.
Naturally, this meant killing Shen Yanming before he came to her room tomorrow.
When Li said this, her voice rose slightly at the end, carrying a subtle urging and a hidden warning.
"Tomorrow, when Shen Yan attends court, will be the best opportunity." Shen Xiao didn't mince words, his fingers unconsciously stroking the soft sword at his waist.
Both of them were ruthless.
"Are you sure you can do it?" Mrs. Li asked impatiently.
Shen Xiao took a deep breath and made a clean and neat throat-slitting gesture towards Li Shi: "Don't worry. Tomorrow morning, when Shen Yan goes to court and passes through that sparsely populated alley in West Street, I will take care of it."
Although there were very few battles in the army he served in.
But they regularly engaged in bandit suppression and troop training.
Shen Xiao also spent three years training in the northern frontier.
So killing someone is still very simple for him!
immediately.
As if he had thought of something, he added to Madam Li, "Even if... even if things are exposed, I, Shen Xiao, will take full responsibility for my actions and will never betray you."
Having received the promise she wanted, Li's smile grew even more alluring.
She leaned forward and planted a kiss on his tightly pursed lips: "Okay, I'll wait for your message."
She was aroused by Li's kiss.
Shen Xiao wanted to do it again.
He instinctively reached out to put his arm around Li's waist, pulling her back into his embrace, trying to capture that fleeting moment of tenderness.
But Li blocked it.
Her hand rested gently yet firmly on his chest, her eyes filled with a hint of cunning and an air of complete control: "Once you've dealt with Shen Yan, I'll be at your mercy."
This was yet another lure, driving Shen Xiao headlong into the abyss without hesitation.
"Great!" Shen Xiao was even more motivated now.
She straightened her slightly disheveled clothes and quietly walked towards the door.
Just as it came, like a haunting shadow!
Soon, only Shen Xiao remained in the room, amidst the complete mess.
A faint, lingering fragrance of a woman permeated the air.
Shen Xiao unconsciously stroked his slightly cool lips with his fingertips.
There seemed to be a trace of Li's warmth still lingering there.
In fact, what Li gave her was not just a kiss, but also a promise.
He forced himself to pull away from that tender feeling and began to rehearse the massacre the next morning in his mind over and over again.
This is not a rehearsal of moves.
He was rehearsing the details, the timing, the atmosphere, and any possible variables.
For example, in which direction would a bodyguard typically hide?
Is it the roof?
Is it the shadow of a tree by the roadside?
Or perhaps a rooftop further away?
The next day.
Shen Xiao sneaked out of the ancestral hall and followed Shen Yan's carriage all the way.
Shen Xiao dared not entrust this matter to others; he had to do it himself.
It was the dead of winter, and the Lunar New Year was approaching.
Therefore, there weren't many pedestrians on the road.
The main reason is that the court session starts quite early, and everyone is staying home at this time, which makes it easier for Shen Xiao to carry out his duties.
The carriage drove along several main roads before finally turning onto the western alley leading to the palace gate.
This alley is narrower than the main street, with towering walls on both sides that block out the already dim morning light, making the alley even darker.
This is it!
Shen Xiao's pupils suddenly contracted, and all the muscles in his body tensed instantly, like a cheetah poised to pounce.
Shen Yan probably never expected this.
Under the emperor's nose, in the magnificent capital, would anyone dare to lay a hand on him, the eldest son of the powerful and influential Marquis of Zhenguo?
Therefore, he did not bring many guards.
Besides the coachman, there was only one bodyguard hidden in the darkness.
Shen Xiao seized the opportunity and acted.
He was so fast that he left only a blurry afterimage.
The target was not the carriage, but the shadowy corner of a seemingly empty house to the side and ahead.
