I fought back after reselling my engagement
Chapter 209: Late Night Murder
If you want to add something, you can always find the words.
The emperor transferred Xia Yang, Chun Feng, Chun Mei and others away, actually he was going to take action against Bai Xian Zhuang, not to kill innocent people, but to give her a warning.
What did she do wrong that required them to kill someone as a warning?
She was a little tipsy and smelled the scent of lamp oil. There were five people pouring oil around the room.
It only took a moment to finish pouring. Originally, she had planned to die suddenly tonight. From then on, there would be no more Su Wenjiang, no more Princess Jiaxing, only one Su Zhen, and her earthly fate would end here.
It is better to have someone protecting you than to have someone by your side.
She wanted to protect her grandfather, but now she can't do that anymore.
The men outside set the house on fire.
If the king wants his subject to die, the subject must die. If she doesn't die, perhaps her grandparents' family will be dragged down.
"Boss, do you really want to kill Princess Jiaxing?"
"This is what the higher-ups meant. If she doesn't investigate the cause of death of the Liu family, she won't kill them! She knows that the fox demon was born, and it's targeting the people of the Supervisory Guard to kill."
After Su Zhen established her foundation, her six senses became sharper, not inferior to those of the Sword Sect. She heard their conversation.
They were following orders.
Above...
The supervisory guards’ superiors are the emperor and the crown prince.
She was going to die eventually, she couldn't resist and could only wait to die.
She pretended to be drunk and lay on the table. The fire spread and soon turned into flames that shot up into the sky.
It was like waiting for death helplessly, but she couldn't do that. As soon as she moved, she heard a sound of breaking air, and ten arrows flew towards her.
what--
She straightened her body and looked beyond the sea of fire. The arrows were shot from a big tree not far away. Her substitute puppet blocked ten arrows. She changed her mind and entered the golden bead space.
The substitute puppet was hit by several arrows and fell in front of the table, turning into a person the same size as her. Even the clothes on its body became exactly the same as hers.
A substitute puppet can die in place of the original person and also avoid fatal disasters.
*
The Governor's Mansion.
The servant boy beside Su Silang got up at night and was about to go back to his room when he saw the red sky in the southeast.
"There is a fire! That is... Baixianzhuang..."
The servant woke up Su Silang.
When Su Silang came out, Su Shao, Su Wulang, Chun Xiao and others were all in the yard, looking at the sky.
Su Shao said: "Su Su is still in Baixianzhuang!"
Cui exclaimed and jumped into the carriage following Su Shao.
Su Shao said: "Wulang, take good care of your grandfather. He is old and can't stand the blow. Take good care of him. I will go with your mother."
Su Sanlang and Su Silang also got on the carriage.
When they were halfway there, they heard a strange sound, like a chirp, and a colorful phoenix appeared in the sky.
Su Sanlang said: "Phoenix, it's Baixian Manor..."
A colorful phoenix illuminated the silent night sky. Everyone who saw the fire saw the huge phoenix, which appeared in the sky for three seconds and then disappeared.
"Phoenix! It's a phoenix. We saw a phoenix!"
The people around Baixianzhuang shouted.
Su Zhen's substitute puppet was burned into a piece of charcoal. She used magic to integrate the jewelry on her body into the head and wrists of the substitute puppet, including the phoenix ring given to her by the emperor.
Su Shao and others were riding in the front, while Xiao Luo was running towards Baixianzhuang like crazy.
The fire was raging and the main courtyard began to collapse. No one from the officers and soldiers were there to put out the fire. They saw someone pouring oil on it. It was man-made and these people were wearing the robes of the Supervisory Guards.
The Supervisory Guard wanted to kill people and they couldn't stop him.
Beams fell from the roof one after another, flames shot up into the sky, illuminating the entire Baixian Manor as if it were daytime.
After setting off the phoenix fireworks, Su Zhen had already left the main courtyard. She was wearing a black cloak and standing on the hillside at the back of Baixian Manor, holding a telescope in her hand, looking out quietly.
The Su Shao couple arrived.
Cui shouted: "Susu, Susu..."
She wanted to go in, but Su Sanlang held her tightly.
Su Shao grabbed an officer and asked, "Is Su Su in there? Where is Su Su?"
"Sir Su, the Supervisory Guards want to kill Princess Jiaxing, and no one can stop us. The Supervisory Guards acted without authorization, and they were the ones who added fuel to the fire. Princess Jiaxing got drunk tonight..."
When they were drunk, they poured oil and set fire to people.
Su Shao yelled frantically, saying that the higher-ups wanted to kill people, "Your Majesty, Su Su is your daughter? Why do you want her to die? Why?"
In the past few years, Susu has done so much and achieved such great achievements, but in return he was killed by the emperor.
He didn't understand. Susu was just a woman. Why did the emperor want to kill her?
For a man, great achievements would shock the emperor, but Susu was just a woman. Her hope was that the people would have clothes to wear and food to eat. She had been working hard, but when her wish was being realized step by step, the emperor decided to kill her.
Cui is in a coma.
Su Shao was distraught.
The four people watched as the former main courtyard turned into ruins.
The night passed and the dawn came. When it was bright, several people came rushing on the official road outside Yueyang City.
Chunfeng and Chunyu brought a few supervisory guards into Baixian Manor.
Gone!
All is gone.
Cui was taken back to the Grand Marshal's Mansion.
Xiao Luo was still kneeling in the ruins crying. She started by howling loudly but ended up being too exhausted to cry anymore.
Chunfeng entered Baixianzhuang with a sinking heart. When she searched around the ruins, she only saw a charred corpse.
Chunyu murmured: "Impossible, impossible..."
How can this be true?
The princess was very skilled in martial arts, but she died just like that?
Chunfeng squatted down. In the charred corpse's hand was tightly grasping a phoenix pendant. It had once turned into a phoenix ring worn on the princess's hand. Now that the phoenix ring had lost its owner, it had turned into a phoenix pendant again.
The princess is really dead!
Chunyu looked around, looked at the officers and soldiers nearby, and grabbed a leader and asked: "How did the fire happen? How did the princess die?"
The soldiers said, "It was done by the Supervisory Guards. They said it was the will of the higher-ups. After the princess was drunk, they poured oil and set the fire. We didn't dare to save her..."
Chunfeng took out the Phoenix token from the charred corpse, with great sorrow in his eyes, "Supervisory Guard, which flag did this? Princess Jiaxing is the Phoenix Star of Heaven, this is the Phoenix token bestowed by the Emperor! Under the Emperor, the Phoenix Lord is the most respected! The Phoenix token bestowed by the Emperor is in the hands of Princess Jiaxing, which flag's Supervisory Guard committed treason and murdered the Lord?"
Chun Yu shouted loudly: "The Phoenix is out, the Dragon is hiding. The Dragon is visible, the Phoenix is hiding. The Phoenix Lord took over the throne three years ago, but she was thinking about the people, hoping that everyone could have clothes to wear and food to eat, so she hid in Baixian Manor! Which flag dared to harm the Phoenix Lord? Come out--"
Xiao Luo didn’t know what Phoenix Envoy or Phoenix Master was, she only knew that the girl she served was dead.
"They killed all the farmers and craftsmen with the surname Liu in Baixian Village..."
Before Xiao Luo could finish her words, a hidden dart flew over. In a split second, Chunyu dodged and bounced the hidden dart back. With a scream, a man fell from a tree ten feet away, dead.
The spring breeze unveils the mask on the opposite side.
"Meteor Pavilion Killer!"
She took his pulse and found that there were also people from the underworld involved.
Xiao Luo was rescued and continued, "The princess once dug up the graves to find out what was going on. All the farmers and craftsmen who were killed were strangled by the throat and their necks were crushed to death. Their hearts were dug out after death, creating the illusion that it was a fox demon causing trouble."
