Chapter 6 Ruthlessness

  Inside the carriage, Yue'er was shivering, how could she not understand, obviously the second madam had made all the arrangements, but now this unexpected change would occur.   Chu Huo's previous waste was well-known within the Chu family, his martial arts talent wasn't considered strong, but now he was able to easily seriously injure that fierce looking bandit leader.   There was also that group of people later on, why did they come to help Chu Huo? Yue'er couldn't figure it out no matter how she thought about it.   At this time, the carriage was suddenly lifted off, and as she watched Chu Huo board the carriage, Yue'er immediately changed into a pitiful look.   "Your Excellency, have all those bandits been repelled?"   Chu Huo placed his hand on Yue'er's face and touched that smooth and delicate face and said, "Of course they were all repelled."   Just as Yue'er had just breathed a sigh of relief, Chu Huo's hand was sliding down Yue'er's face and pinched on her neck, slowly exerting force.   Chu Huo brought his face in front of Yue'er's face and faintly said, "The bandits were repelled and I didn't die, you're disappointed aren't you?"   Looking at that near, familiar but very strange face, Yue'er barely managed to squeeze out a smile and said, "Your Excellency is joking, it's a good thing that the bandits were repelled, how could my slave be disappointed."   Chu Huo let out a cold laugh, his hand around Yue'er's neck became tighter and tighter until the other party's face was already red and struggling to spit out a single word, only then did Chu Huo let go of his hand and coldly said, "Do you really think that I'm an idiot? Tell me, just how much silver did my good Erniang spend to hire this bandit?"   Yue'er's face revealed a look of horror as she shivered, "Gong ...... gongzi, you know it all?"   Feeling Chu Huo's hand begin to shrink again, Yue'er hurriedly said, "I'll say! Gongzi I say it all! Second Lady spent ten thousand taels of silver to invite these bandits!"   Chu Huo coldly laughed and said, "Ten thousand taels of silver, what a huge amount of money! That Second Lady of mine hates me so much that she would rather spend ten thousand taels of silver to rob and kill me in order to prevent me from returning to the Chu Family?"   Yue'er carefully said, "The Second Lady said, Gongzi, you've always stood on the side of the Grand Duke like a deadbeat, sooner or later, you're going to do something bad, plus she recently pulled in the Fourth Duke, it's just the right time for her to get rid of Gongzi, to eliminate any future troubles."   Chu Huo was also somewhat speechless when he heard this, this body of his, the previous Chu Huo had indeed done many stupid things.   Chu family head Chu Zongguang's four sons, even if Chu Huo used to be a concubine son, the chances of inheriting the head of the family position was very small, that was still a chance, why did he have to stand in line and take a stand so early?   Precisely because he stood in line a little too early, so the Chu family boss Chu Kai and his eldest mother simply did not take him as a matter of fact, in the Chu family's oldest three Chu Sheng trapped when harmed by suspicion of trouble also did not intervene.   If he has not been standing in line, then waiting for him is pulling together, just like the current Chu family's oldest fourth Chu injury, although the age of small, but has been his second mother spend a large price to pull together, where as he is like this, was spent a large price to do away with.   The previous Chu Huo had long since given up fighting for the position of the family head, maybe it was despair, maybe it really had no ambition, but the current Chu Huo was a little bit interested in this position.   In fact, the position of a small family's family head Chu Huo didn't really care too much, after all, according to the original plot, he would become a demonic sect master who would wreak havoc on the world in the future.   But the problem is that is the original plot, and now Chu Huo is reborn after crossing the Chu Huo, God knows what things will develop into what appearance, so the rice to eat bite by bite, the road also want to step by step, first get the Chu family heir to the position of the head of the family say.   Since ancient times, it was poor in literature and rich in martial arts, from strengthening the muscles and bones to condensing the qi and blood, which one didn't need a lot of resources and time?   Becoming the family head heir, the Chu Family's resources were not to say that they were all his, at least half of them were his, allowing Chu Huo to progress faster in the martial arts.   Chu Huo turned his gaze towards Yue'er and said indifferently, ''That Second Mother of mine even chose to invite bandits to kill me, isn't she afraid of being discovered by the Chu Family? Do you have any evidence here of her colluding with bandits?"   Since Chu Huo chose to compete for the position of the family head heir, his three brothers could be an obstacle, now if he could get evidence, he could completely eliminate one first.   Yue'er thought for a moment and said, "There is no evidence, the second madam directly asked one of her beloved subordinates to look for the bandits, and those bandits only knew that the ones who came to look for them were from the Chu family, and they didn't even know exactly who they were. There wasn't any paper evidence left behind."   After saying all this, Yue'er revealed a pitiful expression as she looked at Chu Huo: "My lord, I've said all that should be said, can you I spare my life?"   Chu Huo smiled and said, "Don't worry, I don't kill women."   Yue'er's face immediately revealed a smile like relief when she heard this, but Chu Huo was the one who suddenly exerted force and directly crushed her neck!   Looking at Yue'er who had already lost her breath and still had a puzzled look in her eyes, Chu Huo faintly said, "Lying to you, this you believe, so naive and still learning others to be an undercover agent?"   Chu Huo dragged Yue'er's corpse and threw it out of the carriage, and instructed Gao Bei, "Bury her."   Gao Bei and the other subordinates all shivered, but no one said anything more.   Yue'er was a maid that the Chu family had paid for, her life was the Chu family's, so of course she could play with her and kill her if she wanted to.   Moreover, in these two days, the second prince was obviously a bit off, his ruthlessness seemed like he was a different person, and they didn't dare to talk nonsense.   Seven days later, Chu Huo is also finally out of Gotham Mang Mountain, the end of the official road a lively state capital appeared in front of Chu Huo's eyes, this is the Chu family is located in the Tong state capital, one of the few large state capitals in Wei County.   Speaking of the origin of the entire Wei County is also very interesting.   Wei County was originally a small country Wei, in the world's three major powers between Northern Yan and Eastern Qi, once helped Qi attack Yan, but was finally destroyed by Yan.   Yan because of the hatred of Wei attacked Yan, so in Wei County high-pressure policy, making the people of Wei County and martial arts people have rebelled, and even Yan guarded in Wei County on the general 'Hengshan Bajian' Fang Longquan were mysterious people seriously injured, waste an arm, a moment of chaos in Wei County, forcing not dare to slaughter the Yan temporary withdrawal of troops.   In the end, Yan still reached an agreement with Wei County, will not station troops in Wei County, but will send civil officials to manage.   Therefore, Wei County is nominally under Yan's jurisdiction, and the tax revenue is also to be paid to Yan, but in reality, it is its own place.   Of course, these great events between the court and the Chu family such a small family is nothing to do with, without the court in the jurisdiction of the people, Wei County martial arts culture is free very much, some martial arts forces over is also extremely moist.   The Chu family as the Tongzhou province one of the three big families, the south of the city there is a street is the Chu family place.   The carriage stopped in front of the Chu family's gate, Chu Huo just got off the carriage, then he saw that the gate was pushed open, a middle-aged noblewoman in her forties, dressed in a graceful and luxurious manner walked out with a group of maids and subordinates, seeing that Chu Huo was actually standing in front of the carriage, her face instantly changed a little slightly.   Seeing this person in front of him, Chu Huo's face hung a faint smile as he arched his hand and said, "Greetings Erniang, after not seeing her for a year, Erniang is getting younger and younger."   This noblewoman in front of him was precisely the mother of the Chu family's oldest third, Chu Sheng, the Chu family's second wife, who could be described as ruthless and poisonous.   Previously, although he was relegated to the mines, it was Chu Sheng who caused him to be relegated to the mines, but the one who came up with the idea behind the scenes was most likely the second lady.   Moreover, this second wife's background is not small, she is the only daughter of the owner of the Tongzhou Prefecture Open Mountain Martial Arts Pavilion, 'Cracking Gold Hand' Ding Kaishan.   Ding Kaishan was the local snake in Tongzhou, although his strength did not reach the innate realm, he was still at the peak of the blood condensation realm, and he was very popular in all aspects of Tongzhou.   More than twenty years ago when the Chu Family had just moved to Tongzhou Prefecture, it was precisely because Chu Huo's father, Chu Zongguang, had married Ding Kaishan's daughter that he was able to put down roots in Tongzhou Prefecture so quickly.   As the Second Lady looked at the smiling Chu Huo in front of her, she couldn't help but frown.   Obviously it was all arranged, how could this Chu Huo still come back alive? Could it be that Yue'er's stupid girl had messed things up, and Chu Huo hadn't taken the Yuanbao Town's path?   The second madam looked around and didn't see Yue'er's figure, she couldn't help but ask, "Where is your maid Yue'er?"   Chu Huo shook his head with a pitying face and said, "Yue'er's body bones are too weak, she was accidentally played to death by me, I heard that there are still some good-looking maids at Erniang's place, why don't you grant me another one?"   Saying that, Chu Huo's gaze then recklessly looked towards the maids behind the second madam, immediately causing those maids to blossom and change color.   The Second Madame's complexion instantly changed, Yue'er was dead? Then did he know or not about the matter of her arranging bandits to rob and kill Chu Huo?   Moreover, after not seeing him for more than a year, she felt that the Chu Huo in front of her seemed like a different person, a year ago, he wouldn't have dared to talk to himself like this!   Coldly snorting, the second madam faintly said, "Since you're back, then go in, the master and the others are waiting for you."   Chu Huo raised his eyebrows, letting Gao Bei lead the people down to rest first, while he followed the Second Lady into the Chu Family's council chamber.
