Cut Frost

Chapter 97 97. When exactly?
You Jue Hengli kicked the ground's wrist, and the sword flew out of Xiao Hengnian's hand.

You Jue took the sword and pointed it at Xiao Hengnian's throat.

Xiao Hengnian did not expect that the opponent would be so difficult to deal with, and he was not an opponent at all.

With my cultivation level, how can I talk about rebellion and revenge?
Involuntarily, his body went limp, and he fell to the ground, bowing his head and not saying a word.

Seeing that he had lost his sharpness, Yu'er looked at him and asked in a cold voice, "Or do you just want revenge and disregard the life and death of the Xiao family?"

Xiao Hengnian forced himself to get up, cupped his hands to Yu'er and said, "Young lady, what you said is true, it was because of my confusion that I made a big mistake."

Xiao Hengnian sighed, and continued: "If I hadn't insisted on going my own way, how could my third brother have suffered such a disaster."

"You three brothers, you should know what's going on, right?" Yu'er said.

Xiao Hengnian sighed again, and said: "The second younger brother advised me not to do such dangerous things again, because he didn't want to be listened to by Meng Fuman. So he blackmailed the second younger brother, asking for official positions, gold and silver, greedy for nothing."

"Are you going to let him blackmail your brother like this?" Yu'er said.

"I didn't know it before, but the second brother didn't explain this to me until the third brother was arrested. It turned out that the third brother had already discovered that the second brother was in contact with Hu Sixi, but he didn't know why, so he also went to Hu Sixi's house to investigate, but he lost the jade pendant. Picked up by the old beggar woman. After the incident happened, I was afraid that if the government pursued it, it would implicate the Xiao family, so I agreed to admit it all, and told me not to reveal the matter, and agreed with Hu Sixi that if he killed him Third Young Master, I will thank you again in the future and take care of the old mother for him, as long as I do my best to protect the Xiao family."

"I can't see that this Xiao Hengqi is weak and gentle, but he also has such courage." Yu'er nodded in praise.

"After the incident with the third brother, I have already figured it out. No matter what grievances I have with the royal family, the Xiao family has treated me as much as a mountain. How can I be burdened with them, so I have already planned to stop here. It's just the third brother... "Xiao Hengqi said up to this point, his face showing embarrassment.

"Youjue, is there a way?" Yu'er looked at Youjue and said.

"Now that the evidence is solid, it is impossible to overturn the case." You Jue said with a cold face.

"What is conclusive evidence, isn't it just a broken jade pendant?" Yu'er said, "The confessions of the old beggar and Hu Sixi are nothing but their own fabrications."

"It doesn't matter whether they made it up or not. What's important is that they made it up well, and that Zheng Desheng is the head of the Qianling Mansion," You Jue said.

"What's wrong with Zheng Desheng?" Yu'er immediately asked alertly.

"Zheng Desheng married Qi Shi, the adopted daughter of the servant of the Ministry of Industry. This Qi family was born by Meng Kuang's affair with other wives." You Jue said.

Yu'er stared at Youjue, opened her eyes wide, and said, "How could it be..."

"The Xiao family has collapsed, so naturally someone needs to take over the prime minister's position." You Jue said, "Meng Kuang will not let this opportunity pass."

"You mean that Meng Kuang covets the position of prime minister?" Yu'er said in surprise.

"General Meng..." Xiao Hengnian was also taken aback.

"No wonder Zheng Desheng closed the case so hastily! No wonder he even broke into the prime minister's residence and searched casually! I just said, there must be something wrong!" Yu'er suddenly realized, looked at Youjue, "How do you know this?"

You Jue didn't answer, and said to Xiao Heng: "You'd better handle the matter cleanly."

"Yes, I will definitely handle it well." Xiao Hengnian cupped his hands.

If this matter is really involved, as You Jue said, there will be no one left alive in the Xiao family.

Yu'er asked again: "Then Xiao Hengqi, what are you going to do?"

"Third brother will die in vain if he returns to Qianling Mansion, I will definitely make arrangements for third brother." Xiao Hengnian cupped his hands.

Yuer asked Youjue again: "Then what about Hu Sixi?"

"He received people's money, he should have known that he must die, and he deserved to die." You Jue said.

"You really are..." Yu'er shook her head and said.

"What he took was the money that he sacrificed his life for, and he was not wronged." You Jue snorted coldly.

Yu'er suddenly stared at his face without saying a word.

"What are you looking at?" You Jue looked at her coldly.

"It's rare that you talk so much." Yu'er said strangely.

You Jue turned his face away, ignoring her.

Yu'er took out a small crimson red packet from her sleeve, opened it, took out a bottle of Fangxiu powder, and handed it to Xiao Heng, saying: "This medicine is the best for treating trauma, you take it and apply it to him once a day. Once a day, it will be fine soon."

"Thank you, miss." Xiao Hengnian accepted it without refusing.

When the two left the Xiao residence, You Jue suddenly said: "Why do you still keep the Ningshuang pill?"

"Why do you peek at other people's things?" Yu'er said dissatisfiedly.

"Eat it." You Jue only said.

"You are so powerful, why don't you grab it and eat it yourself?" Yu'er smiled at him.

"Although ice is better than water, the divine tortoise has ten thousand years of cultivation. If you eat it, it will help me even more." You Jue said.

Is ice better than water?Why can't Zhu Yan be restrained?

Yu'er regretted in her heart.

Thinking of the situation just now, it seems that Xue Shanjing is more fragile in front of Zhu Yan's power, and he feels a little annoyed.

"Why don't you talk?" You Jue asked.

"Ah? What are you talking about?" Yu'er woke up startled, "I kept the Ningshuang pill to honor my mother, how can I eat it?"

Hearing her words, You Jue felt a throbbing in his heart and stopped speaking.

The two returned to the empty mansion, and Chi Lin and Xiao Mi sat on the ground in the house.

Mrs. Li was still lying on the bed.

Kurihara was nowhere to be seen.

"Miss Yu'er." Seeing her turn around, Chi Lin hurriedly got up and greeted her, "Are you alright?"

Looking behind her, You Jue's blue shirt is half uncovered, but his blue belt is tied around Yu'er's waist, she is shocked.

"Sister Yu'er, you..." Xiao Mi also saw this scene, her face turned pale, and she said in a trembling voice.

"Miss Yu'er, I'll kill him for you!" Chi Lin's face was dark, and he drew his sword and stabbed at You Jue.

You Jue turned sideways slightly, clamped the tip of the sword with two fingers of his right hand, and Chi Rin couldn't move it.

You Jue flicked the blade lightly, Chi Rin felt a force coming, and he had no choice but to take two steps back.

"Lieutenant Chi, don't get excited, I'm fine." Yu'er smiled at Chi Lin.

"Then you..." Chi Lin wondered.

"Ah? Well, it's just a misunderstanding." Yu'er laughed.

Looking at Xiao Mi's face again, Yu'er stepped forward and put her arms around her shoulders, and said softly: "Xiao Mi, don't worry, it's just a small accident, we're fine."

"Yeah." Xiao Mi only nodded lightly and said, "It's good that Sister Yu'er is fine."

Looking at You Jue again, his face was a little red.

Yu'er walked to the bed, took out a Shuangyi Dan and fed it to Li Shi.

"Where is her son?" Yuer raised her head and asked Youjue.

"Xuanzhou." Youjue said.

"So I went back there." Yu'er nodded and said, "Send her out of the city first, find a place to settle down, and return to Xuanzhou after her injuries are better."

At this time, it was almost dawn, and some people were walking around.

You Jue went outside to find a carriage, put Mrs. Li into the carriage, and left the city gate.

On the way, Yuer told Chi Lin about the Xiao family.

After hearing this, Chi Lin was helpless.

"Where will Ziyu go?" Chi Lin asked.

"If you ask Xiao Hengnian, he will naturally know." Yu'er said.

"This matter, I'm afraid it won't be that simple." Chi Lin frowned.

"What? What else is there?" Yu'er wondered.

"Actually, the emperor has been very concerned about this matter, and secretly sent the prince to investigate this matter." Chi Lin said.

"It seems that the emperor is still very satisfied with his son-in-law." Yu'er laughed, "So the Xiao family has not moved yet."

"Now that it is like this, Prime Minister Xiao's aspect is probably a little unstable." Chi Lin sighed.

"The crime of deceiving the emperor is not a light crime." Yu'er nodded.

Xiao Mi was surprisingly quiet today and didn't interrupt.

Often look secretly at Youjue.

You Jue just closed his eyes and rested his mind, without saying a single word.

In the afternoon, a few people came to a small town thirty miles away from Jingyue City, settled Mrs. Li in a farmhouse, and told her not to return to Jingyue City again.

When the group turned back to Jingyue City, five miles outside the city, an eagle circled from top to bottom.

When it landed on the ground, the Kurihara copper chain rolled out and rushed straight to Youjue.

Youjue retreated a few steps backwards, dodging away.

"Kurihara, stop!" Yu'er shouted to Kurihara.

Kurihara looked at her, then at Youjue, his eyes were about to burst into flames.

"I'll kill you!" Xiang Youjue gritted his teeth, and immediately attacked him again.

The Youjue white light hit directly, entangled the copper chain.

"I'm fine, don't fight with him," Yu'er said.

"He bullied you?" Kurihara looked at her and asked.

"How dare he bully me?" Yu'er said.

He stepped forward and pulled Kurihara away.

"He really didn't bully you?" Kurihara said.

"He doesn't have the guts yet." Yu'er looked at You Jue and said with a smile.

You Jue turned his face away, the cyan mask was facing the sun, shining with a cold light.

Xiao Hengqi escaped from prison because of the crime, and the Qianling Mansion issued an official document to arrest the whole country of Huanyue Kingdom.

Under the imperial decree, the marriage given was cancelled.

Xiao Jin was not strict in teaching his children, was demoted from his position, and demoted to the head of the Ministry of Industry.

Xiao Jin went to the table, retired and returned home.

Emperor Yongping sympathized with his years of hard work in the court and granted him grace.

There was a vacancy in the phase, and the Meng family was secretly active, and all the civil and military officials recommended Shang Shucheng Zhou Ting to be the prime minister.

"Who is Zhou Ting this week?" Yu'er asked Youjue.

"A native of Huazhou, who passed the imperial examination and became an official, even won three yuan." You Jue said.

"Get to the point." Yu'er said.

"We have very close contacts with Meng Kuang." You Jue said.

"It's really not simple." Yu'er looked at him thoughtfully.

You Jue also looked at her.

"Is there anything in Jingyue City that you don't know?" Yu'er approached him and asked.

"Maybe there is." You Jue said.

"Brother Youjue, you are so amazing, how do you know everything?" Xiao Mi said in admiration.

"Traitors do more tricks." Kurihara snorted.

Emperor Yongping ordered people to send the birthday horoscopes of Ning Yang and Meng Hanzhen to the head of Tianxuan Dao.

The next day, Taoist priest Tianxuan came to see him.

Emperor Yongping sat on the Panlong chair and said, "How is it, Taoist priest, for your hard work?"

Tianxuan Dao said: "Births and birthdays are a sign of calamity, marriages are bound to change, and it is difficult to break the road."

Emperor Yongping was shocked when he heard the words: "What?"

Yu'er and the others had nothing to do, so they played in the markets inside and outside Jingyue City, and in the mountains.

Chi Lin invited them to live in his own mansion, but Yu'er didn't want to cause any trouble, so he still lived in the inn.

Youjue comes to the inn where Yuer lives almost every day.

The only thing he came to the inn was to ask Yu'er: "Have you considered it?"

But Yuer always has various reasons: not yet.

This day Youjue asked her again: "When will you think about it?"

Yu'er said while eating the snacks bought by Tianwaiquan: "Such a difficult question, it must take a little more time."

You Jue's complexion was extremely ugly.

"If you behave better, maybe I will have less time to think about it." Yu'er smiled at him.

Suddenly it was hard to breathe, and You Jue had already strangled his throat.
