Chapter 939: 939-Don't Show Your Courage
My Ferocious Tigress Wife
Xiao Baoxin sneered,â
âI was wondering who it was. So itâsâ¦â
âHe said his name is Yang Fengming.â Butler Qi knew how to continue the conversation when he heard this.â I live next door. It used to be the Wang familyâs former residence in Langya.â
Yang Fengmingâs face turned green with anger. He had moved here for at least two years, but this person was clearly looking down on him and making things difficult for him in public.
However, on second thought, if he wanted to do this, he indeed did not need others to give him more face. Sooner or later, they would fall out.
âCut the crap. Where is Xie Xian? The emperor has invited you to come with us to Taiji Palace!â
âWho are you trying to fool?â Xiao Baoxin narrowed his eyes. General Wei has just received a call from the Empress. The Emperor has passed away this morning and has urgently summoned General Wei into the palace to discuss the follow-up matters.â
All the soldiers were stunned and looked at each other.
The Emperor was dead?
Even if this old hag of Jiankang City had the guts, she wouldnât dare to say such disrespectful words.
Why did such a sentence suddenly appear?
Yang Fengming obviously didnât listen to him.â We are here to receive the Emperorâs decree. Donât even think about pretending to be crazy and acting stupid to get away with it!â âYour Majestyâ¦â It was obvious that he didnât want to say the word âdeathâ, but he was so angry that he blew at his beard and glared at him.
âIf there was really something, why would he order us to come and capture the guilty minister Xie Xian?â
âOnly Xie Xian is an important official in the court. Do you think the Chu family, Xi family, and Xu family are all dead?!â
âPerhaps Empress Xiao only treats you as a dead person. How do you know that you didnât summon the Chu, Xi, and Chu families? Itâs just that you werenât summoned.âXiao Baoxin wasnât bragging. It wasnât that she couldnât speak properly, but that her hands were fast. Donât think that she was clumsy. When it came to talking, she was not inferior to others.
He couldnât let others suppress him in terms of aura. He had to make a move first!
Yang Fengming gritted his teeth, the veins on his neck popping out.
âTake down the family of the guilty minister, the Xiao family! What are you guys waiting for?â
âStop! Stop! Stop!â A series of loud cries came out from the Xie familyâs residence. Xiao Baoxin turned around and saw Xie Qing running out with disheveled hair. Her belt belt was loosely tied around her waist. It was obvious that she had slept until late in the morning.
Then, he was awakened by the sound of thunder sent by Xiao Baoxinâs men.
Heavens and earth!
âWhat do you want? Youâre trespassing on a private house and even brought a knife!â Xie Qing was very manly, but her dressing and image could not be considered the best lineup. Although she had her chest puffed out, she looked like a scion from an aristocratic family who had accidentally entered the battlefield and had gotten high from drinking Five Stones Powder.
âYang Fengming, do you want to rebel?â
Yang Fengming scoffed. Do you really think that no one knows that you instigated Prince Yiyang to rebel when you were in Jiaozhou?â
Xie Qingâs face turned green. He had always been worried that this matter would be exposed, but he didnât expect Yang Fengming to get it.
âWhat, surprised? Letâs go into the palace and talk to the emperor.â
Xiao Baoxin glared at Xie Qing with a bad look in his eyes. She was incapable of doing anything but was more than capable of causing trouble. She actually urged people to rebel. After the rebellion failed, he could still return to the imperial court and be his Pill Sun Yin. He was really magnanimous.
Xie Qing couldnât pretend that she didnât see it, it was like a knife.
He really didnât urge Prince Yiyang to rebel. He was scared out of his wits. If he didnât rebel, he would have been punished. Moreover, the affairs of the court were ever-changing. Who knew what kind of interests were being fought here? Whether it was the Crown Prince or the Xin âan King who killed his father, they were far away in Jiaozhou and really did not know.
As an advisor, he knew the monarchâs position and bore the monarchâs worries. He would definitely walk down the same path to the end.
Who knew what kind of situation the Xie family was in Jiankang City? Who knew if they would be destroyed at any moment?
Xie Qing rebelled without hesitation, but in the end, Prince Yiyang was killed in the midst of the chaos.
He was only left with the courtesans that Prince Yiyang had given him back in Jiaozhou City, so he couldnât just ignore them. In the end, he acted as if nothing had happened and only returned to Jiankang City after the world was at peace.
He really wasnât a person like Yin Qing, who purely wanted to stir up trouble and plunge the world into chaos.
A few years had passed, and the shadow of returning to Jiankang City had long disappeared. His days were considered smooth sailing. Who would have thought that Yang Fengming would come? He really wanted to ask him seriously where he knew, but he couldnât bring himself to do so in this situation.
If he asked, it would be a confession.
âDonât play dumb here. According to what you said, my Xie family is a traitor. My father, Sikong Xiao, risked his life for Daliang and protected the safety of the people.â
âAre you the one who passed down the fake imperial edict? General of the Central Army? Since when did the Emperor need your Middle Corps to capture people into the palace? If you want to capture us, we are the royal guards. What right do you have to interfere?â
âIf you want to arrest someone, fine. Whereâs the imperial edict?â Xiao Baoxin raised his chin and said in a cold tone,ââDidnât you say that there was an imperial edict? Take out the imperial edict and let me take a look!â
âThe emperor is wise, how can he allow you to be so disrespectful!âYang Fengming shouted angrily,â All soldiers, listen up! Capture everyone from the Xie Residence and bring them back to the Generalâs Residence. If anyone dares to resist, kill them without mercy!ââ
âGeneralâ¦â âCould it be that we received a fake imperial edict?â
Anyway, he didnât see it.
Yang Fengming kicked him angrily.â Iâve received imperial edicts for so many years. Canât I tell if theyâre real or fake?â This sinner of the Xie family is trying to deceive us and escape in the chaos. All the soldiers must not be confused by this demoness and must be arrested.â
âWhy arenât you making a move? Those who disobey your orders will be beheaded! Those who retreat will be beheaded!â
After all, they were Yang Fengmingâs direct subordinates. When his trusted aides raised their sabers and charged forward, many people followed suit. A small number of people who hesitated were also pushed forward by the crowd.
Xiao Baoxinâs eyes widened as he rushed towards Yang Fengming. However, before he could reach him, Yang Fengming had already disappeared into the crowd before he could finish speaking.
âSister-in-law, come back! Donât show off your courage!â Xie Qing said as she went up to pull Xiao Baoxin back to the residence.
In the end, Xiao Baoxin saw that the momentum was not good and retreated. The two of them bumped into each other.
â D * mn, heâs really strong. I think my bones are broken!â
Xiao Baoxin gritted his teeth, grabbed his collar, and threw him through the door effortlessly. He smashed into Butler Qi and almost bit off his tongue.
By the time he came back to his senses, the door was already closed.
Xiao Baoxin raised his saber and stood on top of the wall, shouting,â
âSomeone passed down a fake imperial edict and attempted to silence everyone. Everyone in the Xie family will listen to my orders. Anyone who dares to trespass into the Xie residence is a traitor.â
Xiao Baoxin stood high and looked far away. This time, he saw clearly that there were really quite a number of people. Just the front door was densely packed with people. The entire alley extended out and there were at least five to six hundred people. It was much more than the number of bandits that Zhou Dalang had colluded with.
There were less than 200 Xie family men of sacrifice, including the guards.
In that case, donât blame her for playing dirty.
