Emperor, I Am Brutal

Originally, Hu Xiao thought that it was just like those small fries, she did not even put them in her eyes, and unknowingly, she was struck unconscious by the person hiding in the darkness.

On the vertical beam, Hu Xiao saw that the few people had completely disregarded him, and sat around him, murmuring to themselves. Then, she stealthily got up and went forward.

Hu Xiao quickly beat them up to the ground and looked at them coldly. Then she tied them up again.

Before he could bring Hu Xiao up any questions, he saw the few lively people who were jumping around had all tilted their heads to the side, black blood flowing out of their mouths.

Hu Xiao was shocked, she immediately went to check, only to realize that the few of them had seen the truth, they were afraid that she might not be able to endure the torture and say something she shouldn't have, so she decided to bite off the poison that was buried by her teeth. The poison was extremely powerful, but in a moment, they had all lost their lives.

She frowned as she looked at the few people who had been following him from the yamen until now. Just now, Hu Xiao had already vaguely felt their killing intent a few times, but it was concealed very well every time. Adding to the people she had met later on who tried to assassinate Soong Xuan, Hu Xiao thought that they were the same people.

If training them was so easy, then the person who invited them must be either rich or powerful. Furthermore, they must also have the right to do so. Otherwise, the game wouldn't be so fun to play.

It seemed like his life was worth quite a sum. It was actually worth it for someone to waste such a large sum of money.

Hu Xiao was a martial artist after all, and now that she saw someone willing to pay for her life, she even showed off a little. After looking at the dead body a few more times, Hu Xiao turned and left.

If these few people did not succeed, and their master were to find out that they were incapable, they would definitely be severely punished, and have even sent people with even more powerful skills.

When she came out, she saw the soldiers on the streets. Hu Xiao was also shocked, but after hearing the people's narration, Hu Xiao became relieved, and only because of this, Hu Xiao did not have her usual high-spirited look. Those soldiers did not even ask a single word, and only thought of Hu Xiao as the little beggar of Liuzhou City.

Although the City Lord Palace was talking about a thief who stole something, then the first to be suspected would be this little beggar. But now, they had turned a blind eye towards him, and presumably, the order they received was to search for their Empress. After all, he had not returned for an entire night, so Qin Shuo was definitely furious.

He slowly made his way to the main city gate office, and sure enough, he saw Yin Fufeng and Zhao Qiyan at the entrance looking around, as if they were looking forward to something.

Qin Shuo did not mind being anxious, but these two people that Hu Xiao thought were his friends, Hu Xiao did not have the heart to make them be so anxious.

"Where did this beggar come from? Let's go quickly! This is silver!"

Zhao Qiyan only saw a woman with tattered clothes appear before him. Right now, she was extremely annoyed, but she couldn't help but throw the few pieces of silver in her arms into Hu Xiao's arms and drive him away.

Yin Fufeng originally thought the same as Zhao Qiyan, but the beggar in front of him was not moved at all by the silver in his hands, and even continued to look at Zhao Qiyan and him, and after staring for a while, Yin Fufeng slightly smiled.

"Empress."

After he recovered from the pain, Yin Fufeng bowed to the beggar in front of him.

Zhao Qiyan was startled, "Empress? Where is the Empress! "

The big and sturdy man had been worrying about Hu Xiao's safety for the entire morning, but there was not a single trace of Hu Xiao to be found in the entire city. Seeing Yin Fufeng suddenly bow, he became extremely terrified, and carefully took a look at the person Yin Fufeng was bowing to was the beggar who had just lost his silver.

Staring, Zhao Qiyan was immediately scared until his legs became weak, and just as he was about to fall to the ground in embarrassment, Yin Fufeng saw that he needed help.

Hu Xiao saw that the two of them recognized him, so she used her eyes to signal them to follow her.

"Empress, how can you be like this? Did something happen outside yesterday? This humble subject will go and take revenge for the Empress, the person who should be bullying my East Court, she is tired of living! "

Zhao Qiyan became more and more agitated, especially when he saw Hu Xiao in such a sorry state.

"Shut up!" looked at Hu Xiao and said once more, "Does the Empress not wish to appear right now? What do we need to do? "

Hu Xiao glanced at Yin Fufeng in praise. As expected of the old cunning fox, but in the short exchange, he already knew what he was going to do.

Hu Xiao did not hide anything and told her plan to Yin Fufeng and Zhao Qiyan.

So the reason why Hu Xiao did not appear now was to let the person behind him to reveal herself, and with the two of them hiding in the shadows, it was clear who would be the first to reveal themselves.

Yin Fufeng naturally understood the principles behind Hu Xiao's trip, so he did not try to stop him. Seeing that his fox-like good friend did not have any words to say to stop him, Zhao Qiyan forced himself to stop himself from saying anything, and tried to advise him otherwise.

"In that case, esteemed wangfei, you must be extra careful. You must ensure that you return before the sacrifice. If there's anything you need help with, just let us know."

Seeing that his good friend was so sensible, Yin Fufeng comforted him a lot.

With just a quick thought, he understood that Hu Xiao's appearance was not well-known by anyone within the East Court. It was likely that those assassins knew about him, so they had naturally been following him all the way from the yamen, and thus the people within the yamen became the main suspect. Now that Hu Xiao had left the hiding place, those people would definitely be thrown into disarray, and with that, they would be able to see who was behind.

"Mn, I will do so, it's just that I'm not here, so His Majesty will definitely make things difficult for my people in the palace, especially Zhi Lan. You guys think of a way to stop him, but you must not let His Majesty teach me, Zhi Lan, a ruthless lesson."

Seeing Zhao Qiyan who was hesitating at the side, Hu Xiao laughed in her heart, to be able to make Zhao Qiyan be so bashful and not say anything, Hu Xiao thought that the only person who could cause him to not say anything was Zhi Lan, and if she did not return tonight, Qin Shuo would definitely vent her anger and anger, and with so many people protecting her, she would definitely be able to protect her well.

Seeing that the two of them had agreed, Hu Xiao limped far away.

"Is the Empress really fine?" "Why do I feel that something's wrong? Is the Empress's foot injured?"

Zhao Qiyan looked at Hu Xiao's back and asked. He was really used to Hu Xiao's arrogant and domineering attitude, but now that he saw it … Weird … Hu Xiao found it hard to adapt to the current situation.

"It doesn't matter. The Empress is so intelligent, so naturally no one would dare make things difficult for her. The two of us should think carefully about how we should defend the Empress in front of His Majesty without any doubts."

Yin Fufeng slapped Zhao Qiyan on the head, feeling that he was going to fail.
