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.
