This was also the reason why Xiao Zhenhai was determined to get rid of Lian Ru Yue in one fell swoop. Lian Ru Yue was Xiao Rou's nightmare. If the nightmare didn't die, then he wouldn't be able to get rid of it.
"Don't worry little sister, their martial arts are powerful, they will not disgrace your mission." He had always felt guilty for not taking good care of Xiao Rou. Now that he wanted to kill Lian Ru Yue, he was happier than anyone else!
"As far as I know, they have just departed from the Prime Minister's Estate. I order you to stop her halfway, do not hesitate, the moment you see her, cut off her legs with a saber, put her in a jar, and then throw her legs to the dogs to eat. You want her to watch as her legs get eaten, then hide her and wait for me to find her and settle the score, is that clear?"
Her gaze was as terrifying as that of a hungry wolf, and the flesh on her face was trembling in fear.
Madam Xiao sighed softly from her seat.
"Master, there are quite a few guests outside. Sixth Prince, Eighth Prince, Tenth Prince, Prime Minister and Vice Minister have all arrived." At this moment, the voice of the butler, Xiao Gui, came from outside.
Xiao Zhenhai stood up and his sons took a step back. He bowed and Mistress Xiao stepped forward to help him tidy up his clothes.
"Let's go. The banquet should start soon. There's no need to take that person to heart. When the time comes, we can go and take a look at the corpse." He sent the most powerful person in the camp to stop, and even the Moon Spreading Wings flew away.
Xiao Zhenhai strode out of the back pavilion and headed to the front hall. When his figure appeared, everyone in the room stood up and looked at him, greeting him.
"Duke Xiao …"
"Duke Xiao …"
The Duke of Xiao cupped his hands together in response to the crowd, while his three sons all looked extremely talented, especially the second son, the Heavenly Treasure Great General, Xiao He.
The Duke of Xiao walked all the way to the front of the princes and led his three sons to kneel down on one knee. "Your Highness, this humble subject has come late!"
The eighth prince's face was full of smiles as he said, "There's no problem. Duke Xiao, please get up."
The banquet was extremely lively.
The two carriages headed towards the direction of the Xiao family. For some reason, Qing Dai felt uneasy, her right eyelid twitching from time to time. While she was holding the book for Lian Ruyue, she dropped the book twice on the ground.
"Chen Xiang, what's wrong with you?" "What's the matter?"
"Sister Qingdai, I've heard that there's been a flower gathering road in the capital recently. There are many ladies who have fallen into malice, I'm worried …"
"Puchi …" "You're thinking too much. This is the Prime Minister's carriage. Who doesn't have eyes? Who dares to make a move against the people in our carriage …"
Just as they were talking, they heard the sharp sound of wheels hitting the ground outside. The carriage tilted forward and came to a sudden stop. The three of them crashed forward.
"Miss, be careful!" Qingdai quickly held onto Lian Rue.
"What happened?" Lian Ruyue suddenly grabbed the chair under her and asked in a tight voice.
"Miss, there's an assassin!" A cold voice came from outside.
Assassin? The cold brows had just finished speaking when they heard Lian Shiya's shrill scream from the other carriage.
When Lian Ruyue heard this, she suddenly opened the curtain of the carriage. The moment she did, she felt a cold light flash into her eyes, causing her to almost be unable to open her eyes.
He saw several black clothed men holding cold blades in their hands. The swords were long, and with the force of breaking bamboo, they pounced towards the gold horse carriage.
"Not to kill us, but to kill the third miss!" Xia Xiang was stunned as she sucked in a breath of cold air and said.
The guard on the horse carriage was clearly not on guard at all. With a "pu" sound, he saw a guard, who had not even managed to draw his sword from his waist, fall into a pool of blood.
"Ah, ah..." "Don't kill me, don't kill me …" Lian Ruyue heard Lian Shiya's screams one after another from the carriage, as well as the Xiao Clan's wails.
With a swoosh, he pulled out the sword from his waist.
"Scram!" Otherwise, I will kill you! " Two of the black-clothed men flew to the front of their carriage. Before they could pull out their swords from their foreheads, a sharp sword was pressed against their throats.
Coldly looking at the sword flashing with a cold light, Lian Shan did not have any expression. He slowly put the sword back into its sheath and jumped onto the carriage. He waved his whip and quickly drove the carriage away.
Lian Ruyue heard Lian Shiya and the Xiao family's voices from inside getting further and further away.
"Third young miss, she …"
"Leng Mei, hurry up!" Lian Ruyue ordered in a low voice. Those people would soon discover that they had recognized the wrong carriage, so they had to seize the opportunity to leave quickly.
Qing Dai and Xia Xiang also seemed to understand what was going on. They sat beside Lian Lu Yue, tightly protecting her while their hearts thumped in their chest. They were probably used to seeing Lian Yi Yue's life and death; although they were afraid, they still felt at ease with Lian Yi Yue's presence.
"Eldest Miss, they're charging over!"
As expected, after a short while, the cold brows voice came from outside the carriage. Liuyue lifted the curtain of the carriage to look, and from afar, the carriage made of gold had already flipped over and landed on the ground. It was unknown whether the Xiao clan and Lian Shiya had been stabbed to death.
This was the letter that Feng Yunzheng had asked the cold brows to pass over. It said that when she went to the Xiao Estate, she was to sit in the most luxurious carriage, which he would be responsible for forging. At that time, it would be sent to the Prime Minister Manor in the name of his mother.
When Ru Yue suddenly saw such a luxurious carriage, she was shocked. This carriage was practically made of gold. And when Lian Shiya desperately wanted her carriage, she seemed to have started to understand his intentions.
"Eldest Miss, be careful!" Suddenly, their carriage flipped to the side. Lian Ru Yue's expression changed as she abruptly held onto the carriage's railing. Her head heavily smashed against the door, and following that, a long sword pierced in from the outside with a 'swoosh' sound.
Something struck the palanquin, and drops of blood fell to the ground.
Ah!
Ah!
Blue Dai and Dai Xiang screamed. Their terrified eyes were tightly staring at Lian Yue, and they were almost unable to breathe.
The guests had all arrived one by one, and not long after, even the fourth prince, Feng Qianyue, who rarely appeared recently, appeared at the banquet. After he had fought with the other princes, he first sat down beside Feng Ye.
Xiao Zhenhai chatted merrily with his honored guests. Occasionally, his sly fox would glance towards the door.
"The young lady of the Prime Minister's estate has arrived …" At this moment, a voice finally sounded out from outside the door. Feng Qianyue's heart skipped a beat, and he couldn't help but turn to look over. He was vexed to discover that even though he was resentful, he couldn't help but want to see her!
When Xiao Rou, who had been hiding in the rear pavilion, heard this, she hurriedly walked outside with her walking stick.
"Miss, be careful." The serving maidservants hurriedly ran over to support her.
At this moment, they saw a carriage stop in front of the entrance.
"Father, there really is only one carriage. Looks like Lian Ru Yue has already been smoothly taken care of." Xiao Shan by the side opened his brows and said.
"A brat with a yellow mouth. There's nothing to fear from the start. You guys have overestimated her." Xiao Zhenhai had never placed Lian Ru Yue in his eyes.
