The captains of the East Depot are usually transferred from the captains of the Embroidered Uniform Guard. The captain Zhu of the East Depot who is leading the troops today is also an old acquaintance of Xie Xuan.
Captain Zhu knew how powerful Xie Xuan was, and he also knew that he couldn't defeat him. He didn't want to face him head-on, so he bowed and advised:
"Brother, why do you have to do this? You said you were doing this, just secretly kidnapped the person and sent him away, it's not like you can't do it.
Why did he have to bring the person back to the Princess's Mansion in front of so many people in the capital with such fanfare?
It's hard for us to report to the authorities after such a mess. Junior brother, why don't you hand over the person and we will take him and leave? Why bother with such a big fight?"
Xie Xuan ignored it and just said:
"Everyone serves his master. Stop talking nonsense. The person that the Princess wants, even the Jade Emperor can't take him away. I will kill anyone who dares to come. If you come, I will kill you."
Zhu Qianhu advised again:
"Not really, not really, why would it be so! Junior brother, I know you are a martial arts expert, but two fists cannot beat four hands. How many people do you have, and how many people do I have?
If we really fight, both sides will suffer. Is it worth it for a prisoner who is doomed to die?"
Before Xie Xuan could say anything, Eunuch Gao couldn't help but yelled:
"Captain Zhu, charge in! If you delay any further, I will report you to the Ninth Prince and punish you for dereliction of duty!"
Captain Zhu is really annoyed to death by Eunuch Gao.
Malfeasance, what dereliction of duty? The prisoner escaped, so that was Eunuch Gao's fault. It had nothing to do with him. He was just forced by Eunuch Gao to take the blame.
It would be of no benefit to him if this matter was settled today.
Eunuch Gao would be rewarded for capturing the criminal, but he would definitely offend the eldest princess.
The eldest princess is the emperor's biological sister and has a deep relationship with the emperor. Although she cannot touch the Ninth Prince, it is easier for her to touch a small thousand-householder like him than to blow a breath.
But this matter cannot be messed up. He makes a living on the ship of the East Factory. If he messes up, Eunuch Gao will not forgive him and he will be dead.
Good or bad, it's all death, and he can't afford to offend anyone. Captain Zhu is in a difficult situation. If he had known yesterday, he should have found a job abroad and stayed away from this trouble.
Captain Zhu was thinking over and over again, and he was undecided. Eunuch Gao would not tolerate his perfunctory attitude, so he asked sternly:
"Why, Captain Zhu, are you so hesitant? Are you doing something shameful with the traitor Shen Hongxian? Are you involved in the treason?"
With the charge of treason put on him, Captain Zhu could no longer delay and flatly denied it. He quickly ordered his attendants:
"You guys, join me in besieging and restraining Captain Xie, and the rest of you, rush in to look for him.
Remember, remember, get General Shen and leave immediately, fight quickly and decisively, don't fight to the end.
Although we have more people, our advantage lies with Xie Qianhu, and we won’t be able to hold out for long.”
Captain Zhu took the lead and was about to rush in, but Xie Xuan came towards him with a knife. Several captains from the East Factory joined in and surrounded Xie Xuan. For a while, they clashed with swords and the sound of metal and stone rang out, and several people were already fighting in a group.
Other guards from the East Factory were about to rush through the door and were about to engage in close combat with the guards from the Princess's Mansion when the tightly closed door of the Princess's Mansion suddenly opened.
Accompanied by the sound of horse neighing, Su Fengyi rode out and shot arrows. Three sharp arrows broke through the air and shot towards everyone.
The Dongchang servants feared an ambush and retreated hastily. Even Captain Zhu and his men stopped their attack and took shelter.
Seeing the sharp arrows flying towards them, the servants dodged decently, but Eunuch Gao was so frightened that he ran away in fear, holding his head in his hands.
Amid Eunuch Gao's terrified screams, three sharp arrows grazed the back of his shoes, pierced through the stone slabs, and left a clear line on the bluestone road in front of the Princess's Mansion.
The horse ridden by Su Fengyi rushed to Eunuch Gao in an instant, and the horse's hooves kicked the brim of Eunuch Gao's hat.
Seeing that he was about to be trampled to death by the horse, Eunuch Gao was terrified. His survival instinct made him agile beyond his physical limit. He cried and rolled on the ground for several times before he barely managed to save his life.
Su Fengyi pulled the reins, turned around, and returned to the gate.
She put away her bow and arrow, pointed at the line of feather arrows, and said with the eldest princess' unique arrogant expression:
"How dare you all come to this palace to seek death. This is the boundary. Anyone who dares to enter this boundary today will be killed without mercy. I want to see who dares!"
Logically speaking, the princess has no right to kill people for no reason. Only the emperor has the right.
But Su Fengyi's expression and tone were too confident, and the eldest princess was the emperor's closest blood relative. It was possible that a word from the eldest princess in front of the emperor could really cost someone's life.
Captain Zhu and the servants all came with their families. They entered the East Depot in order to gain wealth and make a living, and they did not expect to risk their lives. After hearing what the princess said, they were naturally afraid and dared not step forward.
Captain Zhu was too embarrassed to persuade the princess, so he retreated to Eunuch Gao and said to him:
"Eunuch Gao, you said that this matter is so messed up, why don't you go and ask the Ninth Prince to give the emperor an order to search? We can act according to the order, otherwise it will be really difficult to handle."
In a panic, his hat fell off, his hair was messed up, his clothes were torn, and he lost face. The eunuch Gao was in a state of embarrassment. He was finally helped up from the ground. He glanced at him when he heard this:
"Asshole, what are you asking for? You have done such a bad job and you still have the nerve to ask the factory manager for help? Are you tired of living?!"
Eunuch Gao looked at the eldest princess who was standing on horseback in front of the gate like a door god. He really couldn't understand why the eldest princess had to pick a fight with the East Depot, as if she had taken the wrong medicine today.
On a daily basis, the East Depot killed many people, but the princess never asked a question or even looked at it.
But today he was like a completely different person, not retreating even a single step in the face of thousands of enemies.
How could a General Shen have such great ability?
Yes, the eldest princess is a beautiful woman, and everyone knows it. The Shen brothers are both handsome and talented, so it is reasonable that the eldest princess likes them.
But for the sake of male beauty, you want to kill people from the East Factory?
Eunuch Gao didn't believe it.
Even though he had almost lost his life just now, Eunuch Gao still didn't believe in his heart that with the Nine Thousand Year Old Man's current power, anyone would really dare to kill someone from the East Depot.
When beating a dog, you have to look at the owner first, let alone killing someone. Looking around, inside and outside the capital, among all the civil and military officials, who has the courage to turn against the East Depot in public?
Eunuch Gao endured the pain in his eyes and kept rolling his eyes. He thought carefully that although the princess had attacked many times today, she had not killed anyone once.
I'm afraid she is just a cowardly girl who talks big but doesn't even dare to see blood when it comes to real action.
Bet!
Eunuch Gao was sure that Su Fengyi was bluffing, and compared to this young-looking princess, the ruthless and merciless Ninth Prince was more terrifying.
He was determined to kill Shen Quan today and complete the task assigned by the Ninth Prince, so he stepped over the line and shouted arrogantly:
"I passed, what can anyone do to me! ..."
No matter how much more I want to say, I will never have the chance to say it.
As Eunuch Gao's toes just crossed the line, Xie Xuan suddenly jumped up, approached Eunuch Gao in an instant, raised his knife and chopped off Eunuch Gao's head on the spot.
To Xie Xuan, the eldest princess' words were like an imperial decree. If the eldest princess said there should be no mercy in killing, then there should be no mercy in killing.
No matter who you are, whoever comes will die!
