Chapter 453: Eat hard, not soft
Chapter 452: Eat hard, not soft
There was silence in the spacious courtyard, and the subordinates who were ordered to serve and guard here didn't quite understand what Zhang Yue meant by these words, but the clever Lingxi noticed the change in Feng Ying's complexion, and couldn't help but ponder the five words Yang Er of Songjiang Mansion in his heart. And Zhang Yue was still standing with his hands crossed, looking at the woman in front of him with a calm expression.
Feng Ying finally came back to her senses, her hands in front of her were tightly twisted together, her long nails sinking into the flesh, but the stinging pain was no match for the panic in her heart. Suppressing her uneasiness, she raised her hand and gently squeezed the tassel on her forehead, trying her best to make herself appear calmer. At this moment, she didn't dare to use the most confident means of fascination in the past, so she could only bite her lip and say, "Can the third young master come to the house to talk?" ”
"Good. Lingxi, you come in with me. ”
Feng Ying, who was turning her head to enter the house, didn't expect Zhang Yue to call Lingxi, and she didn't feel a pause under her feet, and her braided teeth gently bit her lip. When she entered the east room from the hall, she turned around and saw that Zhang Yue and Lingxi had also followed, and she couldn't hear any movement outside, so she unconsciously reached out and pressed her waist, and gradually gained some confidence in her heart.
"Now, can the third young master tell me what you want!"
"It seems that I should ask this, Miss Zhao, what is your idea when you find my eldest brother?"
"What do I think, do you think I want to rely on him?" Feng Ying has always been the most unbearable lonely, but she was under house arrest by the Zhang family for nearly a year, and she didn't know how much anger she had accumulated in her heart, so she couldn't hold back anymore when she heard this, and immediately sneered, "If he hadn't intercepted my boat, if he hadn't used me as a stand-in for his sweetheart, if it weren't for him taking my body, I would have no way out, how would I follow him?" ”
Where can Zhang Yue be moved by this woman's casual words, Zhang Chao's character is very clear to him, although he has the impulsive side of foolishness, and sometimes he will do some foolish things, but it is impossible to use strength against a weak woman. Otherwise, it would be difficult for the girl on Surabaya Street to be innocent. Take 10,000 steps back and say, even if this woman didn't seduce, at least you and I were willing, and each had to bear half of the responsibility. It's just that just now her expression revealed that she did know about the second child of the Yang family, which is very noteworthy. Although he didn't know what the relationship between the two was, it was worth cheating.
"It's none of my business whether you or my eldest brother is right or wrong. I only ask you, how did Yang Ershao of the Yang family in Songjiang Mansion die? ”
Faced with such a problem, even if Feng Ying had prepared for the worst, her heart still couldn't help but sink. Zhang Yue didn't ask about the relationship between her and Yang Jincai, but directly asked Yang Jincai how he died, obviously he had already understood the previous layer. As a result, she had little room to manoeuvre. Even if he doesn't admit it, how can the other party believe it?
After a long time, she turned her heart sideways, and her hands moved down a little slightly, but her face still had a casual expression: "The third young master is afraid that he has been an official for a long time, and he is suspicious of everything." I was kidnapped by a few pirates and taken to the sea, and I lost my reputation, so I had no choice but to follow the eldest young master, and I only hated his unkindness. As for what Yang Er Shao and Yang San Shao, I don't know any of them......"
As she spoke, she moved her steps slightly, seeing that she was only a few steps away from the Lingxi at the door, she jumped over, and pressed her hand to her waist with a cold light, hoping to capture her and bargain with Zhang Yue again. said that it was too late, and at this juncture, she only saw that it was suddenly dark in front of her, and then she found that the curtain that had been lowered was rolling towards her. Even though she is trained and agile than ordinary women, she is still in a hurry. When she finally got rid of the thick curtain, she saw a steel knife pointed at her.
Even though Zhang Yue had instructed Hu Qi to prepare before entering this mansion, looking at the sharp awl on the sole of Feng Ying's hand, his seven-point vigilance suddenly turned ten. Seeing Lingxi's pale face, he couldn't help but feel a little apologetic. Originally, she just used the spirit rhino to paralyze her, but who knew that this woman was so obedient that she gave up him to hold the spirit rhino hostage, and she was quite knowledgeable between the trade-offs, and it seemed that he still underestimated her.
"Judging from the ruined appearance you just now, Yang Ershao is estimated to be too dead to die anymore."
"Now that you've decided it, what else do I have to say?" Feng Ying pinched the awl in her hand, but she still refused to lose the last shred of hope, "It's just that there are so many people in your Zhang family outside, if you kill me, you must have no way to hide it, otherwise will your old lady keep me to this day?" Xiao Zhang is so famous outside, he can't imagine that he is also a hypocrite, isn't he afraid of retribution in the next life! ”
"Fame doesn't matter to me, I'm a very practical person, and I'm naturally a true gentleman to my family, friends, and those who deserve to be treated sincerely. But for people with bad intentions, I don't mind being a real villain. You have never officially entered the Zhang family, you have never had an heir of the Zhang family, and you just wanted to hold Lingxi hostage, why don't I dare to kill you? At the beginning, more than 100 people in Ningbo Mansion have all been shackled to death in the past year, and none of them have been spared, do you still think that my reputation as a butcher is fake? As for the next life...... It's good if people can live well in this life, who can care about the next life! Lingxi, you go out first, otherwise I'm afraid I'll scare you when Lao Hu kills someone. ”
Feeling that the steel knife seemed to be a little closer, and hearing this cold words again, seeing Lingxi stumbling out of the room, Feng Ying only felt that the last trace of strength was also withdrawn from her body, and the only luck she had disappeared without a trace. Facing the big man who was holding a steel knife and didn't even blink his eyes, she finally believed that if she didn't get it right this time, she would really die, and her heart was suddenly full of fear and unwillingness.
"As long as you let me go, I will tell you everything you know, from now on, I will have nothing to do with your Zhang family!"
"Very good, tell me your identity and origin, as well as the things you did with Yang Ershao, as well as the people above and below you. As long as I think you're telling a lie, you're welcome to blame me! ”
"You...... What if you insist that I am telling a lie? ”
Looking at the face that had lost its composure and was even a little deformed, Zhang Yue just smiled: "Then you might as well gamble." If you don't say it, then you will die now, you said it, maybe there is still a chance to live. I'm not that impatient, I don't want to wait for a long time, you'd better choose as soon as possible. He nodded to Hu Qi as he spoke: "Old Hu, I'll count to three, if she hasn't opened her mouth, then you will kill her." I remember that your knife skills are no less than that of Ku Ding Xie Niu, and I shouldn't have a chance to make her make any noise, and everything will be left to you. ”
"Yes, young master, don't worry!"
"One."
"Two."
There was only the sound of slow counting in the silent room, but Feng Ying felt her heart beat fast. She was naturally afraid that Zhang Yue would kill people after asking everything, but she had to believe Zhang Yue's words. He is not Zhang Chao's kind of arrogant person, he really does it! When Zhang Yue sneered, as if she could say the last word at any time, she finally didn't have the courage to bet that the other party would not dare to kill people here, and she was relieved at once.
"I don't have the surname Zhao, and I don't know who my name is, but I know that I have been exiled to Dongfan since I can remember, and I am surrounded by vicious pirates, so I have been living in hell on earth until I was fourteen years old. Because pirates needed supplies and money, the imperial court was not allowed to go to sea before, so the pirates had to collude with those large families in the interior who were willing to take risks to smuggle. Yang Ershao was too greedy, and he couldn't stay in Songjiang Mansion after the incident, so I originally planned to take him and those goods to Dongfan to hide, but who knew that he actually encountered the imperial court patrolling the sea and catching widows. ”
Speaking of this, Feng Ying paused slightly, and finally gritted his teeth and said: "I didn't kill him, just because I heard that it was a ship of the imperial court, and if he caught it, he would cut off his head to show the public, so he jumped into the sea in a hurry, and the others also jumped a lot regardless of it, and in the end there was only a little sailor who didn't dare to jump with him, I taught him something, and asked him to tie me up and lock me in the cabin, and you should know the rest of the things." ”
After more than a year, when he heard the word Dongfan again, Zhang Yue couldn't help frowning: "Then let me ask you, did those pirates on Dongfan Island collude with other people?" After you followed my eldest brother, did you still interact with those people from the beginning? ”
"I'm just an insignificant little character, isn't it difficult for the third young master to ask these questions? Besides, Dongfan has been swept away by the imperial army, and the heads of those pirates are probably rotten at the gates of Quanzhou and other places, who else do I have dealings with? ”
"Old Hu!"
Feng Ying just sarcastically said, and when she saw Hu Qi coming up with a steel knife, she suddenly lost her face: "I really haven't interacted with those people again, the east is so big, the wind is so tight, they must have temporarily compromised with the natives on the island and hid, I don't know where they are hiding!" As for who they colluded with, I only heard that it was Tianhuang nobles, and they couldn't get rid of the princes of Han and Zhao, and at most they added some kind of concubines and nobles......"
As soon as she finished speaking, she felt the steel knife retract, and before she could breathe a sigh of relief, she suddenly received a heavy blow to her stomach. She glanced at Zhang Yue in disbelief, opened her mouth to shout, and finally fainted before she could say a word. At this time, Hu Qifang withdrew his fist with satisfaction, looked at Zhang Yue and said with a wry smile: "Young Master is really good at pretending just now, even I believe that you are a butcher who eats people and does not spit out bones, and I am a thug who kills people without blinking." ”
"Such a woman eats hard and not soft, and her grandmother is too polite to her." Zhang Yue smiled faintly, and immediately ordered, "You call Lingxi in, I have something to tell her." ”
