King’s Landing: The Proud Empress

Chapter 248: The first confrontation with the hermit

  Chapter 248 The first confrontation with the hidden race

  Jun Li said this, definitely not because of his wealth and wealth, but because he deliberately pushed people away just now. There are definitely not many. For every five taels of silver per person pointed out, she has found out so much so far, and there are definitely not many left.

  However, it is hard to guarantee that some people will see money and wrong people indiscriminately.

   "If anyone dares to make random identification for money, this emperor will make her life worse than death!"

   As he said that, Jun Li's eyes were filled with icy cold light, he scanned the crowd, and the people who watched were trembling.

"She! Just now I deliberately pushed Chen Lao Er and a young master down, and took advantage of that young master." A short woman suddenly raised her head, and only said to a fair-looking woman beside her. .

  Hearing the words, the woman was shocked, looked at the woman who spoke and said, "Chen Gouzi, you can't open your eyes and talk nonsense, wronging me for some money!"

When Chen Gouzi heard the words, he was afraid that Junli would think she was lying, so he quickly swore to the sky, "I, Chen Gouzi, swear here, everything I just said is true, if there is even half a lie, I will die! "

  Junli thinks these words are not nutritious, but in ancient times, people were very superstitious, and they believed that there were gods in the sky, so it was not a very important matter, and they would never swear. Because in their eyes, swearing is a life-span, so generally few people dare to swear against the sky.

  The short woman panicked when she saw this. Because Chen Gouzi swears, everyone will believe her, but not himself. Unless you swear by yourself.

  But thinking that there are gods watching in the sky, how can a short woman dare to swear, her face is pale and her body is shaking non-stop.

  Seeing this, the people present didn't know who was telling the truth. Immediately, two guards came over and dragged the short woman over, throwing her two meters in front of Junli.

Junli asked Eunuch Yu to give five taels of silver to that man named Chen Gouzi, and the common people were overjoyed to see that Junli really gave the silver, and they immediately told them all about the person they had just seen deliberately pushing someone away. come out. Within a quarter of an hour, seven more people were picked out.

It wasn't until it was confirmed that no one had escaped that Jun Li then stood up Shi Shiran from the chair that Eunuch Yu had just held, and looked at the dozen or so people who had been pulled out two meters in front of him, with a cruel arc at the corner of his mouth. The body is cold.

   "Fifty slabs per person, sent to the Northwest Saltworks."

  Hearing this, those people all rolled their eyes and fainted.

  The guards stepped forward and dragged the people down one by one.

   "Let's go." Jun Li turned around and walked towards the carriage.

   "Your Majesty!" An old voice suddenly sounded, Jun Li stopped in his tracks, turned around, and looked at the owner of the voice.

  His temples are gray, his face is covered with wrinkles, he leans on a cane, his waist is bent, and he looks cautious.

   There was a faint smile on the corner of his lips, "Old man, what's the matter?"

  The old man didn't show any displeasure when he saw Junli, instead he had a pleasant expression on his face, and the trace of fear he had just had for her disappeared instantly.

   "Your Majesty, those who were injured today are ordinary people. Those with minor injuries are better, and those with serious injuries may not be able to afford the medical expenses."

  When the old man said this, he wiped his tears with his hands, "Can your Majesty let those who just pushed people pay for the medicine for the injured, otherwise those injured will be really wronged."

Hearing this, Junli smiled faintly, "Don't worry, old man, the emperor will send someone to pay for the medical expenses of all injured people today, including medical expenses. Every family of the injured will give two taels of silver. Yes, each family will give five taels of silver as compensation. After all, what happened tonight is all because of this emperor."

  When the old man heard this, the wrinkles on his smiling face were crowded together, and he hurriedly bent over Jun Li.

  Jun Li got into the carriage, and a group of people headed towards the palace mightily. As for those assassins, the guards had already been let go first, and they were all thrown into the prison in the palace. She was worried about those prison cells in the capital.

  Sitting in the carriage, Jun Li admitted that what he said just now was to win people's hearts. After all, spending some money is really nothing compared to getting more popular support.

   But those assassins...

  Junli's eyes froze, Kang Wang should be the only one who wants to kill her now, after all, she has lost many of her people.

  General Wei, former Jing Zhaoyi, Murong Jue...

  But on second thought, she had studied Kang Wang Junran, and with her personality, she would never send someone to assassinate her at this time. After all, it is a special period now, envoys from all over the world are on their way to the capital, and it is only a few days before they arrive in the capital. If something happens to her at this time, and the envoys from all over the world get the news, I am afraid that Jun Ran has not yet inherited the throne, and he will face several countries. Jun Ran absolutely does not want to see the joint attack on the Beirong Kingdom.

  So even if she hates her to the point of itch, she won't attack her at this time, so...

   Two words suddenly popped up in my mind.

   Hidden Race!

  But after thinking about it, it feels wrong. The Yinzu hasn't found Liuli Xinyue yet, so they probably won't attack her at this time, and judging by the martial arts of those men in black, the Yinzu shouldn't be that bad.

   "Your Majesty, I just went to test those assassins, but they were so strict that they didn't speak no matter how tortured they were."

   When approaching the gate of the palace, the leader of Ziyiwei came from behind on a horse, approached the carriage and said in a low voice.

  Hearing this, Jun Li nodded. Since they were here to assassinate, their mouths must be very strict. Ordinary torture might not be able to make them speak, but Jun Li thought of an idea.

   "I understand, thank you for your hard work."

  The leader of Ziyiwei was overwhelmed by the flattery, and hurriedly said that he didn't dare, and then stepped aside.

  Junli closed his eyes, but suddenly recalled the words of the leader of Ziyiwei just now in his mind, as if he had grasped something.

  Try...

  Why didn't she think of it!

  The Yinzu will not kill her at this time, but will test her.

  After all, the image given to the world by the original owner is cruel and heartless. He has not been in the early court for a few years, and he is a mud that cannot support the wall. I am afraid that the image given to the hermits is the same.

   Now that she is making a bold move, I am afraid that the Yin family will also become suspicious. Although they will not really kill her, they will send someone over to test her!

   No wonder she just felt that although those assassins were murderous, they didn't use their full strength, so it was like this.

  Then those assassins didn't bite their tongues and kill themselves immediately after being caught, probably because of this. The Yin people should have arranged for someone to rescue them.

  Jun Li sighed softly. Today, is this her first confrontation with the Yin Clan?

  As an enemy, the opponent knows her roots, but she doesn't even know where the opponent's lair is.
