The female boss of destiny, even villains have to work for me
Chapter 143 Qi Heng is wanted
"Who are you? How dare you trespass into the general's mansion? Who gave you the courage? Are you tired of living?" Qi Heng glared at the guards. He was angry but not panicked at all. He thought someone was doing something behind his back again.
He can't bear it anymore!
"General Qi, we are here to arrest you on the orders of the emperor! General Qi, you'd better not resist, otherwise, the emperor will order you to be killed without mercy!" The guards looked at Qi Heng with a sneer.
Qi Heng was shocked, thinking, is the emperor serious? ! But on what basis?
"I wonder what crime I have committed that the emperor treats me like this?" Qi Heng pretended to be calm.
"General Qi, don't you know? You are involved with underworld gangs and are disloyal to the court. Such a person should be executed!" The guard did not hide anything and directly stated Qi Heng's crimes.
Qi Heng's expression changed: "I think the emperor must have made a mistake, or listened to the slander of some villain. This general is upright and has never had any intersection with gangs. I have always been loyal to the court and the emperor. Your accusation is complete nonsense!"
"Humph! Then you have the life to explain to the emperor! If there is no irrefutable evidence, why would the emperor send us, the imperial guards, to arrest people!"
"Conclusive evidence? What evidence do you have?!"
"There's no need to report any evidence to you, General! Or, if you have the guts, go ask the Emperor in person!"
Qi Heng knew clearly that the emperor was determined to get rid of him this time. If he fell into the hands of these palace guards, he would have no way out, not to mention in front of the emperor. According to the emperor's usual style, he would be dead the moment he was caught by the guards.
Therefore, the only thing he can do now is to escape!
"Qi Heng is trying to escape! He will be executed immediately once caught!" The guards rushed forward, and it seemed that there was no room for Qi Heng to survive.
Although Qi Heng's martial arts skills were not bad, he was no match for so many palace guards. Just when he was caught and about to be beheaded on the spot by the guards, a man in black fell from the sky. With the release of a smoke bomb, the man in black rescued Qi Heng from the palace guards.
"Chase! We must not let Qi Heng get away!" The guards rushed out from the smoke, ready to look for the man in black, following the traces.
Qi Heng was knocked unconscious, and the man in black dragged him to the Xusheng Restaurant first.
"Oh my god! This scum is quite serious! He is full of bad intentions. Why don't you just let those guards kill him? Why bother saving him? This kind of person deserves death a hundred times!" Mu Zhou complained to Du Ran in frustration.
Du Ran sprinkled water on Xu Bingxia to get rid of bad luck, and said: "Wouldn't it be better to let him work for us? When the time comes, let him charge into battle, and we can save a few lives!"
"Are you sure this kind of person is not a fence-sitter?"
"It doesn't matter if he's a fence-sitter! But the suspicious emperor will definitely not use him again. He has nowhere to turn to even if he wants to. Or, he will be so stubborn that he will be rejected by the emperor and then be killed by him! Then it's not our fault!" Du Ran said indifferently.
"I think the shopkeeper is right. It's too easy for a man like this to die like this. It would be better to let him go to the mountains to build houses for you and do hard labor. If he doesn't obey, you can whip him and beat him until he screams. Then don't give him food! Let him experience what it feels like to be a prisoner! Kill his arrogance!" Xu Bingxia pouted and looked at Qi Heng on the ground unhappily.
Du Ran laughed and gave Xu Bingxia a thumbs up: "See, it's still my cousin who has the idea! Let's do it!"
"Before the pursuers arrive, you will take him back to the Xuantian Gang. Let the guards know but not completely, and confirm Qi Heng's reputation as a traitor!" Du Ran instructed.
"What about you!"
"I'll be there soon! My cousin is fine. After all, she is just a poor weak woman. Those guards won't care."
"Boss, you must be careful!" Xu Bingxia warned worriedly.
"Okay, don't worry, cousin. I'll come to see you again in two days!" Du Ran comforted.
The guards chased halfway and watched the man in black taking Qi Heng away in the direction of Niu Xiaoshan. They had an idea in their minds and immediately sent a pigeon to the palace. Now, Qi Heng was convicted of treason and collaborating with the enemy.
The guards turned back to Yuecheng and came to Xusheng Restaurant.
"Gentlemen, what can I do for you?" Xu Bingxia came out hurriedly to greet them, her eyes red as if she had just cried.
"Are you the owner of this restaurant? What is your relationship with Qi Heng?" the leading guard asked.
Unexpectedly, this question opened the floodgates of Xu Bingxia's eyes, and she burst into tears: "Sir... To be honest, if you hadn't suddenly broken into the general's mansion, in an incense stick of time, I would have married into the general's mansion as a concubine. Thank you for arriving in time and saving me!"
"You don't want to marry him?" The guard frowned, expressing his disbelief.
"Of course I don't want to. Let me ask you, who would be willing to be a concubine? Besides, I'm the owner of this restaurant. I don't expect to marry into the general's mansion to live. I was forced. He said he would help me protect the restaurant from those gangsters, and the price was that I marry him! Dozens of people in our restaurant are counting on me and their meals! If the restaurant collapses, we'll all be finished. I really had no choice but to agree to the general's request. I really don't want to! Sir!" Xu Bingxia suddenly burst into tears, and the guards' heads hurt because of her crying.
"Okay, stop crying!" The guard stopped Xu Bingxia, and Xu Bingxia quickly wiped away her tears in fear.
"In that case, then you should just stay in the restaurant! However, I have another question. You are close to Qi Heng. Have you heard or seen him interacting with some people dressed in Jianghu style recently?"
Xu Bingxia thought for a moment and said, "I don't know about this, but our restaurant entertains people from all over the place, so it is not ruled out that some people from the underworld often come to eat here. General Qi has been coming here quite frequently recently, and he often drinks with someone in the private room. But I don't know who that person is or what he does, so it's not easy to interrogate him."
"Okay! Got it!" After getting the answer they wanted, the guards left.
The news that Qi Heng was brought down and was being hunted by the imperial court spread like wildfire and spread throughout Yuecheng in almost an instant. Everyone treated it as a joke, looking at Xu Bingxia and Qi Heng.
But Xu Bingxia didn't care. The restaurant would still be opened, and those who came to eat would still come. It seemed that there was no difference.
As long as I am not embarrassed, others will be embarrassed! Xu Bingxia has always believed in the truth Du Ran taught her, and she feels very useful.
Qi Heng's wanted posters were posted everywhere in Yuecheng. The charge was treason and collaborating with the enemy, a capital crime. People did not dare to discuss the matter openly for fear of getting into trouble.
