I married an exasperating eunuch Chapter 57 part 4

Chapter 57 Tanmen Temple (4)

Chen Hui had already experienced this once and immediately knew what it was. She didn’t dare to make a sound for fear that the other part would stab her to death. She could only watch Xiao Tiao and the lantern in her hand move forward while the person behind her clasped her arm tightly and pulled her towards the outside. At the same time, the figure that was originally lying on the ground got up, staggered over and whispered, “Lady, we only ask for money and don’t want your life. If you don’t make a sound, we won’t kill you.”

She didn’t utter a word. The person behind Chen Hui whispered fiercely, “Have you heard?!”

It was his companion who saw the boundary and whispered, “Your dagger is against her throat. She dares not speak.”

Only now did the person behind Chen Hui release the hold on her a bit, “Respond!”

“Got, got it…,” Chen Hui whispered, “My maid has some money on her. I will let her bring it to you…”

“Sorry, just now I spoke a bit too anxious. Actually, the two of us are not entirely asking for money…,” The accomplice’s voice was a bit weak and his body shook as she spoke. The person behind Chen Hui got a fright and said anxiously, “Second brother Qi, you…”

“Brother He, I am fine,” Second brother Qi whispered, “Let’s leave here first.”

Chen Hui got anxious. If they take her to some unknown place, wouldn’t it be at their will whether she lived or died?

“Two heroes, I will really give you money. It doesn’t matter how much you want. Just let me go, alright…,” Chen Hui said quickly. Perhaps, it was because she was anxious, her voice got a bit louder.

Brother He immediately pressed the dagger against Chen Hui’s neck and whispered angrily, “If you speak more, I will cut off your throat!”

Chen Hui quickly closed her mouth. Under the captivity of the person behind her, she walked forward. They dodged the people and went to the back of the mountain.

All the way, second brother Qi said a lot to Chen Hui intermittently. Only then did Chen Hui got to know his purpose: they want her to take them back to the capital. Chen Hui didn’t dare to ask why they didn’t go back by themselves. She could see that second brother Qi had some serious injuries. Both of them have a strong smell of sweat and blood. Presumably, they had hidden for a long time and didn’t dare to go back to the capital by themselves. They must be involved in a homicide. Such people were ruthless. It was better for her to pretend to not have guessed this kind of thing as to not anger them and be silenced.

“Is, is it only just that?” Chen Hui said, “This is naturally a piece of cake. Two heroes might as well go back. I will go tell my family that I will take both of you back tomorrow.”

Second brother Qi laughed, “How can it be so simple? If we take lady back like this, lady will turn around and sell both of us out.”

“I won’t…,” Chen Hui felt anything but reassuring. The back of the mountain was dark and slippery. She could not see the expression of second brother Qi clearly.

Second brother Qi said, “Lady felt agitated in the middle of the night and went out for a stroll. Along the way, you met us and admired brother He greatly. You got moved by passion for a moment, did the good matter with brother He and wanted to bring him home. Of course, as long as lady is obedient, we naturally would conceal the matter of you losing chastity before marriage.”

When Chen Hui listened until here, she wanted to make a national curse. These two people are too disgusting!

“Two good heroes…I swear that I will listen to you. I beg you to please not do this!” Chen Hui said. She was afraid of agitating the two of them. She didn’t dare to say things like “If you dare to touch me, Lord Li from the Department of Rites won’t let you off”. If they find out that her background was not as ordinary as she was now, presumably, she would be silenced!

Second brother Qi chuckled, “Lady doesn’t have to swear. We only believe in ourselves. Swearing is also useless.”

Chen Hui’s heart beat like a drum. Her stiff body resisted moving forward. But she was dragged forward under the urging of her reason. She knew that she must think of a way as soon as possible, otherwise, she really would be disgusted to death.

This was a dark and zigzag mountain road. Because they didn’t dare to light up a light, it was very hard for Chen Hui to walk without light. Second brother Qi led the way. Perhaps, due to his injuries were a bit too serious, he suddenly leaned forward and fell aside. When brother He saw this, he hurriedly reached out and grabbed him, but he let go of Chen Hui. Because he was too anxious about his second brother Qi, he didn’t pay attention to Chen Hui. When he raised his arm, it bumped into Chen Hui’s shoulder.

Chen Hui was already unstable. Being knocked like this plus the fact that it was slippery, her whole person fell outwardly. However, under her body was not the muddy mountain road, but a cliff!

When brother He grabbed second brother Qi, he only heard a scream. When he turned his head to look, the person was gone. He hurriedly stuck his head out and looked down, but he couldn’t see anything.

Brother He said, “Second brother Qi, she had fallen, should we go down to look for her?”

Second brother Qi slowly regained his senses. He looked back at Tanmen Temple and frowned, “I’m afraid that it is too late…Besides, we have seen it during the day. It is so deep here. Even if she didn’t die, she would be disabled if she fell. Forget it, let’s leave.”

Brother He said regretfully, “It is rare to have such a suitable little girl…the other two…”

“The aura of the other two is not ordinary. They don’t seem like ordinary rich people. We can’t provoke them,” Second brother Qi said, “Quickly, let’s go back to the cave first.”

Brother He responded and supported second brother Qi to continue walking up the mountain.

Inside Tanmen Temple, when Xiao Tiao found out that Chen Hui was missing, she immediately went to Xiao Wu and Xiao Liu. The movements of the few people awakened Zheng Rongrong and Commandery Princess Shuning. When they heard that Chen Hui had disappeared suddenly, the two also hurriedly called out their servants and looked all over the temple. Finally, it even alarmed the abbot. Everyone gathered together to search for Chen Hui.

But even when the sky was already shining, there was still no trace of Chen Hui. As for Xiao Liu, after searching one round for Chen Hui without finding her, he untied the horse of Li residence’s carriage and hurried back to the capital to report.

When Xiao Liu saw Li Youde, the sky was already bright. Without waiting for Li Youde to ask, Xiao Liu immediately said, “Lord, yesterday, we asking for lodging at Tanmen Temple due to the rain. At night, Lady Chen and Xiao Tiao went to the toilet. The moment Xiao Tiao turned her head, Lady Chen has disappeared!”

Li Youde was dumbstruck for a moment. After digesting Xiao Liu’s news, his expression gradually turned sinister. Fury and vicious current abruptly emerged in his eyes. Lady Chen actually has disappeared.

Could it be…she and her little lover planned this trip out of town a long time ago? She endured for so long, fawn upon her, please him, was it all to let him agree for her to go out of the city so that she could elope with her little lover?!
