Concubine's true colors

Chapter 12

Xiao Jinxuan didn't speak, but just smiled. Since she decided to help, she was quite sure.

The two people in the carriage were not talking, listening to the movement outside.

Seeing Xiao Heng coming to the square-faced man, he frowned and said: "Which battalion are you soldiers from? Who gave you the right to stop and search? You are called disturbing the people, and you have no military discipline."

The laws of the Great Zhou Dynasty were enlightened, and the emperors of all dynasties knew very well that a boat can carry a boat or capsize it.

Politics has always been based on the people, not disturbing the people and hurting the people, which is the foundation of the Great Zhou Kingdom.

The big man with a square face, after hearing this, said arrogantly: "Disturbing the people? Grandpa is in the city defense battalion. You old boy, get out of the way quickly. If you are talking, be careful, I will kill you with a knife."

Xiao Heng's face twitched, and he asked with suppressed anger: "Send troops without a dispatch order, do you know that this is a violation of military law?"

The square-faced man laughed, and said, "What nonsense military law, grandpa has been in the army for more than ten years, and he doesn't know what military law is."

Seeing the big man's mad look, Xiao Heng couldn't hold back his evil fire. He flew up, raised his leg and swept the big man off the horse, and immediately stepped on the other man's chest, his face full of evil spirits.

"With Lao Tzu, one bite and one grandpa. When I was in the army camp, you didn't know where to feed your baby." As soon as he got angry, Xiao Heng's speech became rough, and he lost the peace he used to have when he was at home.

The big man with a square face felt a pain in his heart. He didn't expect to kick the iron plate today. Just as he was about to call the soldiers behind him to join him, Xiao Heng took out a token and smashed it on his face. , received it back.

With a light chest, the square-faced man quickly got up, and said cursingly: "Dare to throw things at Grandpa, see if I don't take you today..."

The voice stopped abruptly, and the moment he saw the token clearly, his eyes widened and his mouth grew wide, but he couldn't swear a word.

Picking up the token tremblingly, the big man with a square face held it in front of his eyes and looked at it for a long time, then his face turned pale, and bead-sized beads of sweat flowed down in big drops in this severe winter.

Looking at Xiao Heng with horrified eyes, he asked in a trembling tone: "You, you are from the Xiao family."

Xiao Heng glanced at him, then said coldly: "I am Xiao Heng."

These short four words seemed to be worth a lot of money. The heavy square-faced man was so weak that he knelt on the ground on the spot.

There is a folk song in the Great Zhou that goes well, "All the civil servants of the Great Zhou came out of the Xue family, and all the generals of the Great Zhou came out of the Xiao family."

And this black tiger token is a symbol of the direct lineage of the Xiao family, and sometimes it is even more useful than a soldier talisman, but anyone who joins the army as a soldier knows it.

After waiting for a long time, the square-faced man said in fear: "General Xiao forgives the crime, but the young one is also ordered by the magistrate to arrest a thief who trespassed in the mansion. It is definitely not intended to offend."

The square-faced man felt that he was wronged too. He was the city guard army, under the jurisdiction of the magistrate's yamen, and was responsible for guarding the city gates and maintaining law and order. Although it was said to be a battalion army, Xiao Heng didn't know him at all, otherwise, let him have the guts , I dare not be so arrogant.

Xiao Heng didn't care about this, and said with one eye: "There is no transfer order, and Song Zhifu has no right to transfer you out of the city. If you find the thief today, you will be released. If you can't find it, I will punish you."

In the city, the yamen can mobilize the city defenders.But once out of the city, there must be an order to transfer troops from the barracks, otherwise the magistrate has no right to transfer.

The big man with a square face complained in his heart, he had sent people to search all the carriages just now, and there was nothing abnormal, which made him a thief.

Just when he wanted to say a few words to soften up and leave quickly, the soldier who was thrown out by Xiao Heng before came back with a limp.

As soon as he got close, he heard the soldier yelling: "My lord, there is something wrong with that carriage. I saw blood stains on the corner of the carriage." What he pointed at was Xiao Jinxuan's carriage.

The square-faced man's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly asked: "You can see clearly, there is really blood." If there is any suspicion, the Xiao family will be involved today, and Xiao Heng will not be able to protect himself at that time, so naturally he will not hold his little one again. Don't let the braids go.

The soldier was thrown out by Xiao Heng, he fell hard enough, he was suffocated, and he just rushed over and didn't know Xiao Heng's identity, so naturally he was full of confidence.

He said with great certainty: "My lord, I'm not mistaken. I wanted to go up to check, but I was stopped by this man. I think this group of people is the same as the thief who sneaked into the government office." of."

Sure enough, those who don't know are fearless, this guy even pointed at a senior official of the second rank, saying that he was colluding with thieves, and everyone who saw it swallowed.

The square-faced man didn't dare to answer this question, instead he looked at Xiao Heng and said with a smile: "General, you can see what to do, I absolutely believe that you will not collude with thieves, but if you don't check it again, you can't tell. If it gets out then, it will damage your reputation, right?"

Xiao Heng snorted coldly, and then said: "You can search if you want, but if you still can't find anyone in the end, I must go to the Yangzhou government office and ask Song Peng face to face. Today's matter is because he intends to embarrass me, Xiao Heng. Lost my Xiao family's face."

The square-faced man kept saying he didn't dare, but he had already offended Xiao Heng completely, so he could only grit his teeth and force it.

Xiao Jinxuan, who saw everything outside clearly, turned her head and saw a pool of bright red blood at the car door.

The black-robed man also saw it, and said with some annoyance: "It seems that the blood oozing from the wound fell accidentally when I hid in."

After he finished speaking, he withdrew his expression, quickly pulled out the dagger, and said softly: "Woman, after I rush out, if someone asks you afterwards, you just say that you were blackmailed by me, do you understand?"

Xiao Jinxuan smiled suddenly, and said in a gentle tone: "I thought you would be clever enough to coerce me as a hostage, but I didn't expect you to choose the most stupid way. Are you planning to kill me?"

The man smiled evilly, raised his eyebrows and said: "You think too much of me, coercing a woman to block the way in front of you, such a useless thing, I can't do it."

Even if a man dies, he has to die vigorously, otherwise, even if he survives, as far as he is concerned, it is better to die, let alone a hundred people, he may not be able to kill a bloody way.

But Xiao Jinxuan stopped him, and said calmly: "You hide in the soft place again, and I will deal with those people outside." Since she offered to help, she would help to the end.

The man was taken aback, but before he could react, Xiao Jinxuan pushed him in rudely again, and almost at the same time, the door of the carriage was also opened.

It was a big man with a square face who opened the car door, knowing that the person inside was the daughter of the Xiao family, he wanted to be polite first, but before he could speak, an unknown object flew towards his face.

After all, the big man had some kung fu on his body, so he avoided it on one side of his body. Even so, he was still covered in cold sweat.

But this was not over yet, before he could explain a word, plates of snacks and dishes flew out of Xiao Jinxuan's car as if they were free of money.

After a while, there was crackling, and the dishes and chopsticks were broken all over the floor. For a while, no one dared to approach the carriage.

While throwing things out, Xiao Jinxuan shouted: "Kill you crazy people, stay away from me, don't come here, don't come here." Throw it out.

This Xiao Jinxuan's tone is full of a little white rabbit, but what he does is full of destructive power.

For a moment, everyone was dumbfounded, and they all sighed in their hearts, as expected of the young lady of Jiangmen's family.The young lady of other people's family is afraid, at most she screams twice, unlike this one, she looks like an angry little tiger.

A tiger father has no dog daughter. At this moment, everyone really understood this sentence quite deeply.

Xiao Heng, who arranged for Xiao Jinfu to go back to the doctor first, rushed over after finishing his work, and was also stunned by Xiao Jinxuan's aggressiveness, but then he laughed and said: "Jinxuan, stop, you just let them search , you don’t have to be afraid if you have a father by your side.”

Looking at the big men with square faces, who were drenched in the crumbs of vegetable soup, Xiao Heng felt very happy. With his status there, it was inconvenient to make a move. Now these four daughters have given him this mouthful. Bad breath, this daughter is like him!
Because of Xiao Heng's appearance, the square-faced man who finally got out of the sea of ​​suffering was also very depressed. He dragged the soldier just now to him, and asked viciously: "Quick, where is the blood, quickly point it out to me."

The soldier who was also splashed with soup wiped off the vegetable leaves on his face, pointed to the door of the car and said, "My lord, it's right here, right here, hey, the blood is gone, why is it gone, it was originally here."

Everyone looked at the place pointed by the soldier, but there was no trace of blood except for a pile of broken and rotten cake powder. Of course, even if there was, it can't be seen now.

The soldier was also dumbfounded now, he also knew Xiao Heng's identity now, if he couldn't find any trace of blood, he would even falsely accuse the second-rank official of the current dynasty, and ten lives would not be enough to kill him.

As soon as he gritted his teeth, the soldier jumped into the carriage and was about to push away the vegetable soup and snacks, but he hadn't touched the side yet.Suddenly something hit him in the face.Looking down, it was a bunch of blood-red plum blossoms.

Then Xiao Jinxuan's cold voice came: "What bloodstains, it's clearly the red plums I picked, and a few petals fell into the car. You don't have good eyesight, so stop talking nonsense here."

The soldier was dumbfounded. At first he just glanced at it, but now he really can't decide whether it is blood or red plum.

But the big square-faced man outside the car, with an ugly face, slapped the soldier on the face directly, and scolded: "You idiot, I told you how Mr. Xiao got together with the thief ginseng. The guy tied me up."

At this moment, the square-faced man knew that even if there was something suspicious in Xiao Jinxuan's car after being made such a fuss, he would not be able to continue to investigate. Even if he didn't look at it, everyone would say that his soldier's eyes were wrong.

I have found out all the reasons for you, unless you really intend to break up with Xiao Heng, otherwise how can you investigate.

This farce ended like this, when the car door was lowered for the second time, there was a low chuckle from inside.

Xiao Jinxuan stretched out her hand to lift the bag, and said angrily: "For you, now my car has become a dyeing workshop, you can still laugh."

It's not just the dyeing workshop, the food smells in this carriage, if you don't know it, you think it's in the kitchen.

The black-robed man stopped laughing, and then said: "It's really you, you can think of such a way, I just lay there, and no one saw me."

Xiao Jinxuan pursed her lips, but said nothing.

The big man with a square face, as soon as he came over, was hit hard by her, not only lost his sense of proportion, but also aroused the anger in his heart.

So the other party was eager to find the blood, so that he could vent his anger, so he didn't care about the rest of the car at all.

Then the blood was nowhere to be found, the big man was terrified, thinking of the consequences of completely offending the Xiao family, he just wanted to leave quickly.

So when Xiao Jinxuan gave a seemingly reasonable explanation, the big man immediately compromised, let alone going to see what was abnormal in the carriage.

Through the slits in the car window, Xiao Jinxuan saw that the team had withdrawn, she turned her head and said, "Aren't you leaving, are you waiting to be caught by my father?"

When the carriage moved, it was impossible to leave quietly to avoid the driver who was driving the horse, and it was the most sensible to leave now.

Apparently the man in black robe also understood this, nodded and said: "Lady, I can go now, thank you today, we will see you again."

Xiao Jinxuan lowered her head when she turned over and got out of the car, and finally disappeared in front of her eyes.

You save me once, I'll help you once, the kindness is repaid, and there is no need to see you again.She thought silently in her heart.
