Chapter 285 Entering the Tiger's Den
After Kang Ziyan left, Yan Li finally had half a day of peace.
But it was not like she did nothing during this half day.
"Princess." Chen Qingfeng came over with the new newspaper, "The Prime Minister and General Xuan have brought people over. They are already thirty miles away and will soon arrive at Yanling."
Yan Li said calmly: "So, what happened in Yanling is already known to the palace?"
"yes."
"Qingfeng."
"exist."
"Immediately lead people to find the relatives of the victims and ask them to sign and sign as evidence to convict Kang Zixu." Yan Li ordered calmly, "Try to make them believe that as long as there are confessions signed and signed by them, the Kang family will definitely be punished this time." They will pay for what they have done.”
"yes."
"Ask the Xu family and the Wei family to help and list the Kang family's other crimes over the years. The more the better." Yan Li's brows were filled with frost. "A selfish and cruel family can't do unjust things behind their backs." Maybe this is the only thing. If you promise them some benefits, they will be happy to take this opportunity to put the Kang family to death."
Chen Qingfeng accepted the order: "Don't worry, princess, my subordinates will take care of it right away."
"Tianshu, go to the Kang family's yard tonight and check every place where you can find incriminating evidence." Yan Li said and added, "Try to ensure the safety of the second young master of the Kang family."
"yes."
"Qin Shiyuan." Yan Li's eyes flashed with a dark light, and his eyebrows deepened slightly, "The guards in the post house can be a little more relaxed tonight, just don't relax too obviously."
"Yes, princess."
As night falls, Yanling City is filled with a calm that is about to come, and some people have begun to move quietly.
Kang Zixu was recovering from his injuries and was bored. He couldn't help but think of that girl's face. His heart couldn't help but feel hot and unbearable, and his soul seemed to be hooked.
After enduring it for a long time, he finally couldn't help but call two dead men: "The post is very strictly guarded. Can you bring the little royal princess here without anyone noticing?"
Two dead soldiers in black knelt on the ground and said in a dull voice: "I swear to the death to complete the mission."
"Go." Kang Zixu raised a sneer at the corner of his mouth, "If you can't bring him back, you don't have to come back."
"yes."
The two dead soldiers left quickly in the darkness and headed to the heavily guarded post house.
Kang Zixu just stood in front of the window and waited, admiring the night outside the window. He gently leaned his head on the window lattice. He had already begun to imagine how he would enjoy this delicacy after the little princess was brought back.
Maybe she should be beaten with a whip first to teach her to be docile?
No, the whip will leave blood marks, and her fair and delicate skin will become less beautiful.
Kang Zixu sighed and gave her the medicine directly.
It can not only make her beg him obediently and appreciate her charming side in drugs, but also achieve the purpose of taming her... and there will be no reason to force her afterwards.
What a great idea.
The night wind blew gently, leaving a little coolness on this autumn night.
Half an hour passed, and there was no movement outside.
An hour passed, and there was still no movement outside.
But Kang Zixu was not in a hurry at all.
The posthouse was so tightly guarded. If he really brought people here so quickly, he would probably suspect that the other party had some conspiracy.
Looking at the sky outside, I saw that the night was getting darker. After a while, even those who were on duty to watch the night would inevitably feel a little sleepy.
Death warriors have undergone rigorous training.
They know how to attract the attention of patrollers, know when to take action best, and know how to be cautious and foolproof.
So don't rush.
A sound of footsteps came from outside the door, and then the voice of the head of the Kang family sounded: "Zixu, are you still not sleeping at this late hour?"
Kang Zixu turned to look at his father who walked in, greeted him respectfully, and replied: "Not too sleepy yet, just thinking about something."
"I just got the news that the Queen has sent the Prime Minister and General Xuan to Yanling." Kang Yueqing said solemnly, "The city gate is closed tonight, and they will arrive early tomorrow morning. We must be prepared to deal with it."
"Early tomorrow morning?" Kang Zixu frowned, "Come so soon?"
Kang Yueqing had a deep expression and nodded slowly: "The queen should attach great importance to this daughter."
Kang Zixu's eyes darkened and he closed his eyes without saying a word.
"Perhaps we shouldn't have had a conflict with her in the first place." Kang Yueqing said in a complicated tone, "Fortunately, Ziyan has solved all the problems. At least we no longer have to worry about being accused of offending the royal family."
Kang Zixu felt guilty and couldn't help but regret that he had not restrained himself just now.
"Go to bed early and don't stay up too late." Kang Yueqing warned, turned around and walked out.
Kang Zixu sent his father out and looked at the deep night with dark eyes.
General Xuan and the Prime Minister come together?
What are they here for?
Pick up their little princess in person?
Kang Zixu clenched his hands unconsciously, turned around and walked into the room: "Here comes someone! Notify them immediately to cancel the operation."
"yes."
However, as soon as he finished speaking, one of the two dead soldiers who had just left had returned, carrying a young girl on his shoulders, walking like a night demon, avoiding the guards in the mansion and coming quickly.
Kang Zixu's complexion changed slightly, and panic flashed through his heart.
"Young Master." The dead man put the person on the couch, turned around and knelt down, "One of them is dead."
It is normal for a dead soldier to die on a mission.
Kang Zixu had no time to pay attention. His eyes were fixed on the unconscious girl on the couch. His eyes fell on her beautiful face, and he was in a dilemma.
Thinking of General Xuan and Prime Minister who were about to arrive in Yanling, Kang Zixu quickly thought about what to do in his heart.
It might be a feasible method to cook the rice before it was cooked...
Kang Zixu was eager to make a move, and he really didn't want to let go of the duck that was already in his mouth.
"Retreat." He said coldly, and ordered, "Don't let anyone get close to here."
"Yes." The assassin left quickly and quietly.
The room was so quiet that it seemed as if no one was there.
Kang Zixu approached the brocade couch, looking at the girl's bright face under the light, his heart beat faster, as if there was a crazy beast in his heart, eager to tear her into pieces...
Kang Zixu took a breath, turned his head and looked, took a piece of cloth, and tried to cover her eyes.
However, as soon as he stretched out his hand, his wrist suddenly went numb.
Kang Zixu saw the girl open her eyes, with a chilling coldness in her eyes.
"Come——"
His pupils suddenly widened, and Kang Zixu's throat was completely blocked. He couldn't say a word, and could only make a horrified sound.
"You can't get a tiger cub without going into the tiger's den?" Yan Li pinched his neck tightly, and the smile on the corner of his mouth was like a death god, "Kang Zixu, the women who have been buried in your hands over the years, have they never come to you at night to claim their lives?"
