"It's just that … it's just passing by." the man repeated, almost kneeling.

Seeing him like that, Xi Mengyao did not let him go so easily. She only grabbed his shoulder and said: "If you really were passing by, why would you care so much? I think you have something to say, but you just can't say it! "

When the man heard her, he knew that she must have an idea.

However, he didn't know who this person was. As he thought this, he couldn't help but look around at each other. However, no one dared to come over, as they all looked over.

The man knew they were afraid, too, and regretted it.

Seeing that, Xi Mengyao only sneered, and lowered her head to look at him: "Don't think of them, just look at them, they don't dare come over. If you want to say something, then say it. "

When she said these words, she extended her hand and grabbed his shoulder, like lifting a little chick, and directly lifted him up in front of Song Chongjing.

When Song Chongjing saw this person, he frowned and wanted to dodge.

He did not know who these people were, but he subconsciously wanted to avoid being exposed.

He did not expect his actions to be like this. After being seen by Xi Mengyao, she only sneered: "Where are you hiding?"

Seeing her look of disdain, Song Chongjing did not speak further, he shook his head and took a step forward, looking at his.

Then, with a cold expression, he coughed softly and said, "What are you doing here!"

Seeing the other party reprimanding him so harshly, the other party became slightly afraid.

He looked left and right for a moment and confirmed that no one had come for a long time, but he was also helpless. In the end, he was the one who was useless. How could he not know a lot?

When it was impossible for him to dismount, he could only say in a low voice: "I was only entrusted to do so by the Ministry Councillor Liu, to look after this field."

He said, "A few days ago, this house was given to a family of farmers to farm. Originally, everything was fine, but I don't know what happened to their family, so they suddenly moved to the City God Temple at the west side of the city."

"We had no choice but to come and help him watch."

"You're coaxing a ghost. Even if no one is farming, are there not enough workers in Ministry Councillor's own house? Why haven't the slaves of your own clan come here to farm, and instead have you come over here with hoes to watch? " Xi Mengyao mercilessly exposed it.

When the man heard this, he did not speak.

He bit his lips tightly as if he had made up his mind not to say anything. As a man, his face was pale.

Seeing that, Xi Mengyao turned her head to look, and suddenly said indifferently: Could it be, there is something buried inside?

Xi Mengyao said, but her tone was extremely sharp.

The man broke out in a cold sweat and blurted out, "How do you know?"

Seeing him act that way, Xi Mengyao immediately raised her eyebrow and laughed coldly, raising her head to look at Song Chongjing, but with a sense of pride.

Song Chongjing also frowned at her. He looked at her and could not help but ask: "How do you know that there is something inside?"

Hearing this, Xi Mengyao could only sigh, and continued to look at him, then helplessly spread out her hands and said: "Of course I don't know what's inside, it's just that just now, I saw their reactions were extremely nervous."

This was clearly just a flat piece of land. They nervously looked at the wheat field, but no one went to check on the wheat seedlings.

It seemed that there was something even more important than the wheat seedling inside.

"Look at these people, they're looking around nervously. They don't look like they're looking after a wheat field, they're obviously looking after it." Xi Mengyao raised her hand and pointed.

Everywhere they passed, a group of people would flee.

She shook her head, "But, what use can the land have? Either they dug out something, or they buried something when they were busy. Which one is it, I'll have to ask you!"

After she finished speaking, she stretched out her hand and pinched him.

That person immediately cried out in pain as he knelt on the ground and kowtowed, begging for mercy. He said with a tearful voice, "Aunt, please spare my life!"

As he said that, he looked up at Xi Mengyao: "Grandmother, please spare me, I really don't know anything, I'm just here to work!"

However, Xi Mengyao did not care about all this. She just lightly kicked him in the back, pushed him forward, and said with a cold smile with her hands folded, "If you don't know, then find me someone who knows, someone who can say those words!"

When the man heard this, his expression became even more bitter.

"Where is your Ministry Councillor Liu, where is he?" Xi Mengyao was not truly in a difficult position, she said that she had given her a clear path.

Unexpectedly, when the person heard this, his tone showed some hesitation. "This …"

One had to know, the Ministry Councillor was not someone to be trifled with. His son and son-in-law were both officials within the imperial court. Although they didn't seem like senior officials, they did have quite a bit of power.

Although this person looked like a noble person, he didn't know what kind of official they were. Their abilities were such that they didn't know if they could uproot him.

If the rain and thunder from before were to die down, the ones who would be the unlucky ones would be the ones under their command in the end.

He thought, and did not dare say anymore, and only looked at Xi Mengyao. He couldn't help but sigh. Although this woman was as beautiful as a celestial Immortal, her tone was cold, and her eyes were as sharp as knives. He wasn't sure how long he would be able to endure her.

Being watched by Xi Mengyao, even when he was kneeling on the ground, she began to tremble.

"If you don't say it, then my knife won't grow any longer." Xi Mengyao saw his hesitation and benevolently bent down to look at him.

The cold blade was so close to his neck that he could feel it throbbing against his skin.

When he thought about the brutal scene that followed, he felt his lower body warm up …

After a moment, his legs trembled, and he still returned to Ministry Councillor Liu's residence.

"He lives nearby. You will see him if you go around a small path. It's a huge mansion with three big wolfdogs outside. " As he spoke, he pointed with his finger.

"In that place, there is a pagoda. That is his mansion, but you must be careful when you enter. The son of the Ministry Councillor Liu is working at the Han Lin courtyard, and his son-in-law is a fifth grade imperial official in the imperial court!"

He couldn't help but remind her.

"What a big official." After Xi Mengyao heard this, she let out a cold laugh, and the ridicule in her tone was obvious to anyone.

The man stopped talking after hearing what she said. He was thinking, [What kind of deities did I meet? I can't help but complain about my own life. Why do I love to join in the fun and follow in front of this lady?]

Now, he might have smashed his own foot!

As he thought of this, tears began to fall from his eyes.
