As soon as the Canglang King finished speaking, Mrs. Shi at the side suddenly called out, attracting the attention of everyone present.
"Ma'am, do you know this Jie Zitui?"
"He is the housekeeper of Lord Chunshen's mansion!"
Mrs. Shi's complexion became extremely ugly, and her jade face was full of panic and disbelief.
Chunshen Jun is their biggest reliance on this trip, if the other party also wants to harm them, then this trip will be a disaster.
"Ma'am, don't be afraid. Now we need to figure out whether Jun Shen wanted to harm us, or whether his counselors were bribed, so they betrayed him and came to harm us."
Cao Chao offered comfort, but Mrs. Shi did not respond at all. .
In fact, I consciously told him that this matter is definitely not as simple as it seems on the surface.
"It seems that the complexity of the situation in Shouchun is a bit beyond my previous estimate!"
After Cao Chao thought for a moment, he immediately ordered
"Eighteen riders of Yanyun, go and restrain those boatmen, and leave some alive.
"Shi Da, Shi Er, and Shi San are in charge of sailing the boat, and Shi Ming is in charge of the interrogation. I must know everything from them!"
"Yes!"
With an order, there was no one in the cabin, only Cao Chao, Mrs. Shi, and the baby in her arms were left.
"Sister-in-law, don't be afraid!"
I don't know how many times he said this, Cao Chao walked up to Mrs. Shi, stretched out his hand and put her in his arms.
At this moment, Mrs. Shi's face was ashen, and she didn't respond even if she was hugged by Cao Chao. Her beautiful eyes were full of dead silence, without a trace of brilliance.
The whole person lost his soul like a walking dead, and his weak and deceitful temperament became stronger.
Mrs. Shi is just a very ordinary woman with the most common values of this era.
She just wanted to stay at home and take care of her husband and children, but the world was difficult, and she was tortured by successive blows, and her mentality was about to collapse.
"Cry if you want to cry!"
Cao Chao focused on the woman in his arms with a pair of dark and deep eyes, lowered his head and kissed his fragrant lips like a dragonfly on water, and then said softly.
At this moment, he seemed to be transformed into a ray of light, appearing in front of Madam Shi when she was in the darkest moment.
The temperature from the red lips made Mrs. Shi react, her eyes became more turbulent, and immediately the tears slanted down like a dam.
She straightened up, firmly grasping Cao Chao's skirt with one hand, buried her head on the man's chest, her shoulders kept twitching, and soon there was a suppressed cry.
He was obviously crying, but he tried his best not to make a sound.
At this moment, Mrs. Shi felt that the whole world had collapsed, and the only person she could rely on was the man in front of her.
The crying made people feel heartbroken, so Cao Chao had no choice but to continue to comfort the other party while patting the other party's jade back.
"Don't worry, sister-in-law, I will help you with everything."
Madam Shi raised her head upon hearing this.
A pair of beautiful eyes with pear blossoms and rain are heartbreaking.
Cao Chao couldn't help but bowed his head and kissed.
This time it was not superficial, but a long French kiss.
Tongue out kind.
Madam Shi's body froze, but soon softened.
The hand that was holding onto Cao Chao's lapel had loosened at some point, but it was on Cao Chao's chest, preventing him from clinging to his body.
Cute and childish like a bunny.
Mrs. Shi is a classic and conservative woman. She just cried on Cao Chao's body because she lost control of her emotions. Now that her emotions have stabilized, she doesn't know how to deal with herself.
After a long time, the lips parted.
"Is sister-in-law feeling better?"
"You, can you let me go?"
Madam Shi blushed with shame, she turned her head away and did not dare to look at Cao Chao.
But it was a finger that answered her.
Cao Chao stretched out his index finger and slowly wiped away the tears from the corners of Mrs. Shi's eyes.
"It's late at night, you take the baby to bed first!
"Don't worry, everything is with me!"
After finishing speaking, he walked out slowly under Mrs. Shi's gaze.
Mrs. Shi's eyes were blurred, and she stared at Cao Chao's leaving back in a daze.
At this moment, she even had hallucinations, the man's back was so similar to her dead husband, the two seemed to overlap.
"Husband~ hey!"
Chapter 50 Crisis Approaching
Yanyun Eighteen Riders made a move, and the eight boatmen were quickly tied up and thrown on the deck.
Everyone had their legs broken, and there was constant wailing, but no one could sympathize with them.
After glancing at these assassins coldly, Cao Chao looked at Shi Ming.
"Have you asked everything clearly?"
"Ask me clearly. These assassins were temporarily hired by Jie Zitui in Shouchun to assassinate his wife and young master. They arrived in Chengyang last night, and Yuan Zhen was in charge of receiving them."
"You can find out so many things in just one stick of incense. Good job!"
Cao Chao nodded.
The confession was exactly the same as the information the Canglang King had inquired before, so it seemed to be correct.
It seems that the situation in Shouchun is not as simple as imagined.
Although Cao Chao had comforted Mrs. Shi before, Jie Zitui might have been bought by the Li family and had nothing to do with Chun Shenjun Huang Xie, but that was just to reassure this weak and pretty widow.
As the fourth son of the Warring States Period, if Huang Xie couldn't even look down on the housekeeper in the mansion, he would have been played to death long ago.
Therefore, in Cao Chao's view, Huang Xie may have seen Jie Zitui's behavior in advance, but chose to stand on the sidelines.
As for why Cao Chao didn't think it was Huang Xie's direct action, it was because this action seemed rushed and child's play, and it was unlikely to be of the level that a figure of the fourth son of the Warring States Period should have.
"A good man is deceived by others!
"Looks like it's time to shine some muscles."
chicken?
Shi Da and the others looked at each other in blank dismay.
How should the chicken be dried? Do I have to take off my pants?
"Second Lord, how do we deal with these assassins?"
Just as Cao Chao was shaking his head and sighing with emotion, Shi Da stepped forward to ask
"Kill them and throw them into the river to feed the fish."
Cao Chao waved his hand indifferently.
As soon as the words fell, before Shi Da and the others could react, eight people had already stepped out of Yanyun Eighteen Rides, grabbed the boatmen by their hair, and lifted each other like twisting chickens.
Under the horrified eyes of these people, he held the knife against their throats and stroked them lightly, blood flowed profusely, and then threw them into the river without even looking at them.
The whole set of movements is smooth and smooth, fully demonstrating what it means to be professional.
However, all of this made Shi Da and the others shudder.
As family generals, it's not that they haven't killed people before, but it's really impossible to kill people like Yanyun Shibaqi without any disturbance.
These people are cold-blooded killing machines!
When Shi Da and the others looked at Yanyun Shibaqi again, there was already a little more fear in their eyes.
……
Shouchun, Chunshen Junfu.
The attic here is the tallest building in Shouchun, with a height of four floors.
At this moment, Chun Shenjun was standing by the window of the attic, quietly looking at the pier outside Shouchun City and the turbulent Huaihe River.
At this moment, a black shadow pushed the door and entered.
The person who came was wearing a bamboo hat and a fine attire, but his chest was open, and a knight-errant spirit rushed toward him.
"Farmer Tian Guang, I have seen Your Majesty."
"Your Excellency is the new Xia Kui of the farm family?"
"It's down!"
Chun Shenjun turned around slowly, carefully sizing up the person with his long and narrow eyes.
"I have heard for a long time that Tian Guang, a farmer, is a man of great wisdom and courage, known as a chivalrous man.
"It is a blessing to have the honor to see the true face today.
"I don't know what you can learn from me?"
Tian Guang took off his bamboo hat slowly, revealing his true face.
He has a tall forehead, short hair and a tiger beard, and a pair of sharp eyes with a sharp edge.
"I'm here on behalf of the farm family, and I hope to cooperate with you!"
"Cooperation?"
The corners of Chunshen Jun's mouth curled up slightly.
"The land marshes all things, Shennong is immortal, generals and princes, it is better to have a seed."
