"Really, really chopped?"
The inner garden of the palace, the cat and dog room.
Several chamberlains worked together to transport the body that had lost body temperature. Zheng Qiao was violent and killed frequently, and the chamberlains in the palace were replaced frequently. Several of them were young and came from poor backgrounds. In order to have a mouthful of food, they cut off their evil roots to serve people.
They had also heard of Yan'an's reputation.
At first, I hated this son for helping the emperor to do evil, but when I saw that only a few people in the whole court sincerely worked for the benefit of the people, I realized the misunderstanding. Without Mr. Yan’s persistence, the snow disasters in the past two years alone would have brought more people to the world.
Thousands of lonely souls.
Some of them also indirectly accepted Yan'an's favor. They were asked to use their knives to cut into pieces the benefactor's corpse and feed it to the wild little beasts like the cat and dog house. They really couldn't bear it. But if they don't do this, the tyrant will know about it.
If they disobeyed the king, their fate would be tens of thousands of times more miserable than Yan'an. For a moment, everyone hesitated and looked struggling, but no one dared to say a word.
"How about - burn it?"
Someone made a sudden suggestion.
"Burned?"
Everyone was frightened by this suggestion.
This is a waste of time!
The waiter on duty in the cat and dog room whispered: "Let's... let's just say that these little beasts are full, picky, and not interested in human flesh for a while. We are afraid that the human flesh will rot and ruin the stomachs of the little ancestors."
, just throw these human flesh into the stove and burn it...burning it into ashes is better than entering the belly of those little beasts and entering the grain cycle, right?"
Everyone: "..."
This seems to make sense. Although both approaches are extreme, it is the lesser of two evils.
If burned into ashes, animal bones can also be used.
If the tyrant one day thinks of scattering his senior brother's ashes, it will be easier for them to do business. The risk is less than disobedience, and it can also soothe their own consciences. After thinking for a moment, some people agreed one after another. However, this matter must be done more secretly.
.
These chamberlains are the most humble beings in the palace, and no one cares about what they do. The assassination of Zheng Qiao caused chaos in the palace all night, and they were actually asked to take advantage of the loopholes to get the matter done. If they were not worried about getting angry, they would still want to do it immediately
There was a memorial tablet for "the place where the king is banqueting". The sky was getting brighter and the palace was not an iron barrel. The news quickly spread to every household.
Those who heard the news had mixed reactions.
Some are indifferent, some are heartbroken, some are laughing, some are ridiculing, and some are sad. They are deeply aware of the darkness of the world, and have the idea of abandoning their official posts and returning to the mountains. No matter what mood they are in, their fear of Zheng Qiao rises to the highest level.
vertex.
ruthless!
Too cruel!
He treated his senior brother so sincerely and was forced to commit suicide by his atrocities. Although it was wrong for Yan An to betray him, he was extremely kind to Zheng Qiao. Even if he was thinking about the friendship between classmates in the past, he should leave a whole body. Surprisingly, he let him be chopped into pieces.
Feed the dog!
For such a violent master, it is better to go back early.
In just three or four days, it reached the border of Qianzhou.
It's not right to say it's a border.
It takes more than half a day to actually get out of Qianzhou.
A dirty family of three were sitting in a tea shop next to the official road. The woman, Jing Chai, wore a sarong. She looked haggard and weak, and her face was sallow. At first glance, it was obvious that she was recovering from a serious illness or suffering from a serious illness. The young man on the side was also gray-faced. Her Gebu clothes had dozens of patches and exuded an indescribable stench. Among the three of them, the girl was the only one who kept herself clean and respectable.
"Auntie, let's have some..."
The girl looked up at the woman.
Young man: "Mom has no appetite now. Eat more. Don't complain about being hungry again halfway. It's not easy to solve."
As he spoke, he tore open a small piece of pancake.
When I broke it open, I discovered that there was minced meat inside the pancake.
The young man was startled.
What he wants is pancakes with vegetable fillings.
He looked up at the tea shop shopkeeper, who smiled honestly, and the young man understood instantly. He reluctantly took back the stretched out cake, stuffed it into his mouth, stood up and asked for another one from the shopkeeper. The shopkeeper said: " Not for you."
When she saw that the girl was cute and looked like a woman and a young man, she felt pity and exchanged her for a piece of cake.
The young man explained in a low voice: "We appreciate the shopkeeper's kindness. It's just that the child lost his biological father a few days ago..."
When the shopkeeper heard this, he realized that he had done something bad with good intentions, and he sighed: "Oh, it's so pitiful, you look so young..."
In today's world, when a family loses an adult male, the already difficult life becomes even more difficult.
The shopkeeper hurriedly asked someone to exchange for two plain cakes.
The young man hurriedly thanked him.
At this time, the sound of horse hooves was heard outside the tea shop.
Two men dressed as police officers came over.
The young man almost threw the pancake away when he saw it.
Hao Xuan still held back, lowered his head, and avoided the two guards. He was born in the city, and even though he had lived a life of good clothing and fine food for a year or two, some habits that were deeply rooted in his bones were difficult to correct. It was difficult to correct a fighting man who was afraid of the guards. The commoner acted flawlessly and returned to his original position with an expression as normal. He broke the plain cake into small pieces, soaked it until soft and gave it to the girl to eat.
Because the business of the tea shop was relatively good and the location was tight, the two servants were arranged to sit next to them, which made the young man's heart skip a beat. But soon, his attention was attracted by the conversation between the two. Mentioned "banquet".
"The tyrant is getting more and more ruthless..." The tall guard drank a bowl of hot orange peel drink.
"...No, he is simply not a human being. He deserves to be betrayed and separated from his family...is that what the word says? He deserves to be killed!" the short guard agreed, "...not even leaving a body intact. This is still done by a human being. Is it possible? I heard that the person named Yan used to be a scholar of Xin Guo Wushuang, but now he ends up like this... Tsk, tsk, tsk, having such a junior disciple in the stall is really a bloody misfortune for eight lifetimes!"
"Oh, I heard that you should chop it up and feed it to the dogs..."
"It seems his wife and daughter escaped?"
"That's true. Alas, it would be terrible if they were caught...according to that person's character, he doesn't know how to humiliate them."
The young man felt cold all over after hearing this.
Not because I heard about Yanan's death, but because I was worried that the two people around me would suddenly reveal their identities...
result--
The woman only served tea.
Just when I lowered my head and got close to the pottery bowl, there were clear tears falling silently into the bowl, and the taste in my mouth was extremely bitter.
The girl was confused and did not understand what the neighbor said.
"Brother, what's wrong?"
The girl looked at him puzzledly, waiting to be fed.
The young man came back to his senses and whispered: "It's nothing."
He fidgeted and endured it. When they had almost eaten, the three of them got up and replenished some dry food to satisfy their hunger on the road. Under the instructions of the woman, he exchanged the original carriage with a worn-out one from an old farmer in the village.
The wooden donkey cart was built with a very simple shed to protect it from wind and rain. Although it was bumpy, it relied on these disguises to avoid many searches along the way.
It's pretty safe for now.
After they were far away from the tea shop, the young man heard the woman's suppressed crying from behind, as sad as a lonely goose who lost her lover. After a long time, the voice gradually became lower, and then the young man asked: "Madam, where should we go next? Banquet"
When the news about the sir comes here, those who want to hunt us are also on the way. There is no one among the three of us who can fight. If we are caught, not a single person will be left alive..."
As he spoke, he heard the fatal sound of horse hooves.
It can’t be——
What do you mean?
The young man's heart suddenly rose to his throat.
－－－－－－Digression－－－－－
(??ω??)?
In the previous chapter, were there any little cuties who were curious about what kind of knife Gong Xiqiu could eat?
What do you say——
It's not a very sharp knife.
It’s just that the orphanage has added another member...
