After I became a widow

Perhaps Xiao Beihuai's threats during the day were effective, or he actually killed the Zhang family. There were only two incidents that night. One was that someone assassinated him and Su Jingqing in the street; the other was that someone He pretended to be a beggar and robbed a few children, trying to threaten the city gate guards and let the Zhang family be released.

The assassination and robbing of the child and threatening the guards happened at the same time, probably because the guards at the city gate didn't dare to make decisions without authorization, and they couldn't afford to have something happened to the child, so they deliberately avoided Xiao Beihuai's presence.

It's just that they don't know that besides the guards on the city wall, there is also Xiao Beihuai's military adviser, who can make decisions with full authority.

When it comes to tactics and calculating people's hearts, Luo Lingchuan is a better strategist than Xiao Beihuai.

Luo Lingchuan ordered the beheading of one of the Zhang family members on the spot, and then ordered the archers hiding in the dark to shoot the beggars to death. One day he can catch children as a threat, and tomorrow he can do other things naturally, so there is no hesitation at all. , Don't let the other party feel that there is an opportunity to take advantage of.

Once a person is killed and sees blood, there will be peace afterwards.

The only bad thing is that it has a big impact on the people, almost all of them have gone home, the bustle is gone, and there are only lights on the street, without people, it feels very empty.

When the people ran away, Xiao Beihuai had just finished killing people, his body was stained with blood, and the sword in his hand was dripping with blood. He walked out of the light and shadow with the sword in hand, his whole body was full of evil spirit like a Rakshasa.

Even the guards around couldn't help but take a step back, this man looked really scary at the moment.

Su Jingqing stepped forward, grabbed the sword in his hand and threw it aside, "Everyone is dead, so don't be so fierce."

Xiao Beihuai came back to his senses and glanced at Su Jingqing, then he pulled him into his arms and hugged him tightly, his hoarse voice rang in Su Jingqing's ear, "This king killed them, no one will kill them." can hurt you."

Yes, those assassins came for Su Jingqing, not Xiao Beihuai, and almost killed Su Jingqing.

If it wasn't for Bai Shu's sharp reaction and quick shout, the person lying on the ground at this moment would be Su Jingqing.

These people attacked Su Jingqing, which completely angered Xiao Beihuai, so he performed a massacre on the street, and all the assassins who came were killed by him.

The people ran home not only because of the incident at the gate of the city, but also because many people were scared away when they witnessed the ferocity of his murder.

Xiao Beihuai's body smelled strongly of blood, Su Jingqing didn't dislike him, and patted him on the back comfortingly, "You protected me, I'm fine."

"You never slipped a word when you said it to me."

Xiao Beihuai didn't make too many promises, but he did everything he said.

He smelled of blood, and one arm was injured because he blocked the sword for himself, but he was protected by him unscathed.

"Let's go back to bandage first, and wait for revenge tomorrow."

It can only be said that Zhang Xiru's temptation hit the iron plate, and he did not intend to leave the Zhang family behind at all.

Su Jingqing led his lord back home, glanced sideways from time to time, and then realized that Xiao Beihuai had been looking at him, Su Jingqing couldn't help laughing, "I'm so good-looking, you can't take your eyes off it."

Xiao Beihuai came back to his senses, his aura dissipated a lot, he stretched out his finger and tickled Su Jingqing's cheek, "You look the best."

Everyone loves to hear good words, Su Jingqing said modestly, "I can share the same with you."

The corners of Xiao Beihuai's mouth spread out into a smile, "Otherwise, how could I get into the eyes of the princess. This king has long known that the most outstanding thing about him is his skin."

Su Jingqing nodded affirmatively, "Other abilities are always inferior to your beauty."

The two boasted of each other's beauty and returned home.

The hole at the gate of Prince Huai's mansion had already been filled, the broken stone lions were taken away, but the new ones were not delivered, and the individual ones seemed to lose a lot of prestige.

Bai Shu and Si Yan were discussing to be compensated behind the scenes, and the stone lions at the gate of the palace were valuable.

On the other side, Mo Yan had already run into the door and called the military doctor in the family to give Xiao Beihuai a diagnosis, treatment and bandage.

Fortunately, there is no poison, otherwise...

Everyone was full of fear, if it was poisonous, no matter if it hurt Su Jingqing or Duke Huai, the consequences would be disastrous.

After the wound was bandaged, Uncle Zhong came over and told Luo that he had to have a good dinner for Mid-Autumn Festival today.

The two masters sat at the same table, and the waiters and guards sat at several tables together. It was quite lively, and it would be better if there were not so many troubles.

This night was much quieter than last night, there were no bangs, and there were more cries, but no one heard them.

They were still looking forward to the day being able to dawn later, but the sun still rose early, which made people despair.

Not long after dawn, the servants of the government office beat gongs and drums and walked on the street to let the people go to the execution ground to watch the execution in the afternoon. There were also notices posted all over the capital, writing the names of people who will be executed today.

The Zhang family probably never imagined that one day their names would be widely known under such circumstances, which was completely different from what they had imagined.

After Zhang Xiru was brought to the execution ground, he offered to see Xiao Beihuai. Xiao Beihuai agreed. Before Zhang Xiru could speak, he showed him his arm wrapped in white cloth, and reminded Zhang Xiru, "Mr. Zhang Ge must be cautious when speaking. Wang Jin'er is not very happy."

Zhang Xiru's face is not calm, at this moment there is only the sadness of defeat, he smiled wryly: "At this moment, I am already a guilty minister, I have surrendered."

"I begged to see the lord, one is to tell the lord that the person who attacked last night was not my arrangement; The minister was imprisoned in the Ministry of Punishment, and some people made trouble in the name of the guilty minister, wouldn't the lord want to know who it was?"

Xiao Beihuai: "You want to exchange the life of the younger generation of your Zhang family?"

Zhang Xiru shook his head, "No, the guilty minister wants to exchange the bones of the Zhang family's ancestors in the hands of the prince."

"This is not enough," Xiao Beihuai reminded him, "The Zhang family has a lot of things in my hands."

Zhang Xiru said, "Yes, but the Zhang family is all over Dayong, and their names are kept incognito, so the prince alone can't finish the investigation."

Xiao Beihuai raised his eyebrows, "So?"

Zhang Xiru sighed, and his tone was full of helplessness, "The guilty minister knows that the prince wants to touch the Zhang family, and they are going to die anyway. The guilty minister wants them to die well and live up to my Zhang family's surname."

"If the Zhang family is gone, we must not forget the sect, and we must not cut off the roots."

Xiao Beihuai understood what Zhang Xiru meant. He wanted the coffin of the Zhang family in his hand, he wanted to return the tokens of the Zhang family's ancestors, and he wanted the Zhang family to stay behind.

"Too greedy," Xiao Beihuai stated.

"The Zhang family not only exploited and murdered the people internally, but also collaborated with the enemy and treasoned the country externally. Why do you think that the little secret you speak can impress this king?"

"Besides, how do you know that this king doesn't know who did it?"

Prior to this, Xiao Beihuai really did not think that Zhang Xiru was not the person arranged, but when he mentioned it, Xiao Beihuai had a plan in mind.

Xiao Beihuai whispered two words into Zhang Xiru's ear, Zhang Xiru's eyes flashed with shock, and after a while he lowered his head and shook, "The prince is quick-witted, and the guilty minister admits defeat."

Xiao Beihuai sneered, "It's not that this king is smart, but that they did it too obviously."

His concubine didn't have many enemies, and even fewer wanted his life, so it was self-evident who arranged those people last night.

The Tang family, who hadn't appeared in front of people for a long time, and his good brother who hadn't heard from him since he went to the imperial tomb.

"Don't worry Zhang Ge, this king will send your accomplices down to accompany you soon."

"As for you, you will die with all the sins in your body. The Zhang family will be destroyed by you. Remember to explain to your Zhang family ancestors, if they are still willing to see you."

He doesn't need to make any deals, no matter how they hide their names and change their appearance, as long as they get on Zhang Xiru's boat, as long as they get their hands on someone's life, none of the members of the Zhang clan can escape!

After Xiao Beihuai finished speaking, Mo Yan ordered someone to take Zhang Xiru away.

Outside the court, surrounded by three layers of people, some people began to sing about the crimes committed by these people who will be executed today. , burst into tears on the spot.

The Zhang family's crime is unforgivable, except for the children who were not brought, all of them were beheaded.

As the heads fell to the ground one by one, the people cheered bursts of applause.

Xiao Beihuai watched coldly, unmoved in the slightest.

When the execution was about to end, Bai Shu came over and reported to Xiao Beihuai in a low voice, "My lord, Tang Tuo and King Yi are in the crowd."

"Tang Tuo will be killed without mercy if he is arrested. If Xiao Yunyi doesn't know how to resist, he will be killed as well."

Bai Shu knew that those two people who wanted to kill his young master last night were arranged by these two people, so he wished to arrest him and chop him up a few times to vent his anger, so he brought a few people around and quietly planned to arrest him.

But Tang Tuo is very sensitive now, he can detect even the slightest disturbance, and if it feels wrong, Tang Tuo immediately wants to take Xiao Yunyi away.

It's just that Bai Shu and the others moved quickly and surrounded them.

A cold light flashed in Tang Tuo's eyes, knowing that he would die if he fell into Xiao Beihuai's hands, and he must not be caught.

Tang Tuo stretched out his hand and pushed Xiao Yunyi who was standing beside him towards Bai Shu, and he took the opportunity to get out of the crowd with his lower body.

He ran extremely fast and slippery, so Bai Shu and the others ran away without even touching his clothes.

Of course, his betrayal made it impossible for Xiao Yunyi to escape.

Bai Shu called people, "Shut up, tie him up and take him away, if he dares to struggle and escape, as the prince said, he will be killed without mercy."

Xiao Yunyi originally wanted to put on his princely airs and scold others, but when he heard Bai Shu's words, he immediately shut up. He had seen Xiao Beihuai's ferocity and brutality before, and he knew that Xiao Beihuai would not show mercy to him, so he was extra sensible. .

After catching Xiao Yunyi, Bai Shu took people to look for Tang Tuo.

It's just that Bai Shu didn't expect that when he found him, his son was beating him.

It's just—strange.

The young master always only let them do it, but he would never do it if he could talk about it. Today, he not only did it, but also made a lot of effort.

Bai Shu stepped forward silently and watched for a while, then asked: "My lord, does your hand hurt, do you want to help?"

Su Jingqing's hand really hurt a little, so he changed to kicking with his upper foot, but also very hard, it seemed that he really hated Tang Tuo.

Of course, Su Jingqing didn't kick for long, he felt a pain in his feet, and asked Siyan to do it for him. With Siyan's strength, Tang Tuo vomited blood after two punches, and he died half of his life.

Bai Shu stood beside Su Jingqing and watched, "Master, how did you catch him?"

Su Jingqing pointed to the distance, "I didn't catch it, someone threw it in front of us when passing by, and Siyan caught him."

Bai Shu looked in the direction his young master pointed, and saw Ye Xiao in black.

"Ye Huwei, why does he..."

"That's right, his surname is Ye!" Before he could fully express his doubts, Bai Shu suddenly realized.

No matter what background this foreigner is, his surname is Ye.

It's just that no one thought about it before.

Bai Shu said: "No wonder he is willing to help the young master, it turns out we are a family."

"You don't have to be explicit, that's fine," Su Jingqing urged.

Bai Shu agreed, and then went to help Siyan, left Tang Tuo a sigh of relief, and then took him away to the prince for disposal.

After the execution was over, the people did not completely disperse, and they still pointed at the corpses of the Zhang family and cursed.

A generation of elders, the Zhang family of a century-old clan fell, but overnight.

Someone in the crowd shook his head and turned around, people, be satisfied.

Xiao Beihuai left first when someone helped him, and when he came out of the crowd, he saw Su Jingqing standing in the distance waving to him. He smiled and walked towards his concubine with big strides.

To get rid of a serious problem today, we only need to eradicate the remaining evils.

And Xiao Beihuai, who was rushing to Su Jingqing, didn't expect his princess to prepare a surprise for him. Seeing the dying Tang Tuo, Xiao Beihuai praised his princess for being smart and courageous.

Su Jingqing said modestly, "It's okay, I've vented my anger."

There are not many Tang family members, besides Tang Tuo, there are still his parents and a sister. What the Tang family has done is no better than the Zhang family. What happened to the Zhang family is the Tang family.

"Put people in the prison first, and then release the king after the whole family is assembled."

After Xiao Beihuai finished speaking, he led Su Jingqing to leave, "My arm hurts, I'm going home."

Su Jingqing looked at his arm subconsciously, and Xiao Beihuai took the opportunity to make a request, "It won't hurt if I blow it to the king after I go back."

Heh, Su Jingqing can see through that little thought.

So he asked, "Then give you a kiss, will it be ready right away?"

Xiao Beihuai shook his head, "One kiss is definitely not enough, maybe a little more?"

He pulled Su Jingqing to speed up his pace, "I don't know how long the kiss will last, let's go back earlier and try more."

Su Jingqing squeezed his hand, "The injury is still not healed, what should I try!"

Xiao Beihuai smiled, "This little injury doesn't affect it."

The two gradually drifted away, chatting and making trouble all the way, and the others were farther away from them with great insight.

It was as if he had returned to the day of the bridal chamber, and the man who wanted to prove that he was good at it said it was a minor injury.

Nothing has changed.
