Chapter 204 I was framed
"Did the Emperor say that if Master doesn't go back with you, he will have you executed on the spot?"
Qi Minxiu's hand trembled in the air, and a hint of astonishment flashed in his eyes.
"me……"
Before leaving, the emperor did say this to him and he agreed, but he never thought of actually doing it.
Xiao Mo raised the corners of her mouth bitterly and laughed at herself: "That's right, the emperor's order cannot be disobeyed, what's the point of just saving my life."
"Amo, I didn't kill Master. The place was already on fire when I arrived. I..."
Qi Minxiu explained anxiously, fearing that Xiao Mo would misunderstand.
But Xiao Mo didn't want to hear him say any more, so she interrupted him again in a harsh tone.
"That's enough! I only believe what I see."
"What did you see? Did you see me kill someone?!"
Xiao Mo's attitude made Qi Minxiu nervous. He frowned and stood up, uncontrollably raising his tone.
He thought that his relationship with her was deep enough that they could trust each other infinitely.
But her suspicion and distrust dealt him a heavy blow.
Xiao Mo gritted her teeth and lowered her head, unwilling to look at him.
"Master told me not to pursue this matter. After all, you were acting on orders. Otherwise, I would have tried every possible means to kill you."
Qi Minxiu didn't expect that she would be so sure that he was the murderer and would say such decisive words. It felt like a knife was stabbed into his heart, and the pain made him breathless.
"Amo, Master saved my life, even if I am a bastard, I can't kill him.
Yes, my father did say that, but I never thought of actually doing it.
Someone attacked this place before I came. When I first arrived, my master was fighting with a group of people.
The group of people had no choice but to retreat when they saw me bringing soldiers. I was about to chase the enemy when you came.
Believe me, my original intention was to take Master away."
He explained in a humble tone as he approached her.
Xiao Mo's eyes were red from crying, and she looked up at him: "Where are the people you mentioned? I didn't see any of them, I only saw you."
When this was mentioned, Qi Minxiu remembered the person he had caught.
He turned around and grabbed the masked man in black to his feet, looking like he was asking for credit: "Amo, look, this is one of those people."
Xiao Mo glanced at the man with murderous eyes, but before he could open his mouth, the man begged for mercy.
"General Xiao, please spare my life, General Xiao, please spare my life!"
She tilted her head and frowned: "General Xiao, you recognize me, am I from the court?"
"General, please spare my life. All of this was arranged in advance by His Royal Highness Prince Chen."
The black-clothed man's shocking words shocked Qi Minxiu so much that his pupils dilated.
He kicked him over and said coldly, "Who the hell are you? How dare you slander this king?"
Xiao Mo narrowed her eyes, and a glimmer of light flashed in her pupils.
"Let him finish." She called out to the excited Qi Minxiu coldly.
The man on the ground saw hope, a barely perceptible smile appeared on his lips, and he quickly knelt down and crawled to her.
"His Highness didn't want to disobey the Emperor's order, but he also didn't want to do it himself, so he sent me and others to get here before him to burn down the house and surround General Nie.
Then he pretended to arrive and save us in time, but in fact, the swords he gave us were all coated with poison.
General Xiao, I really can't bear to see your love deceived. Since you're going to die anyway, I might as well tell you the truth."
Qi Minxiu was completely annoyed by his words and raised his sword to chop him.
Before he could make a move, the man rushed over at lightning speed.
Xiao Mo watched this scene calmly, staring at the person lying on the ground with an expressionless face.
Qi Minxiu reflexively let go of her hand and turned to look at her like a child who had done something wrong.
"Amo, no, I didn't kill him. Everything he said was a lie. I didn't instruct anyone to harm Master. He is framing me."
Xiao Mo looked away, her eyes filled with three parts of heartache and four parts of helplessness.
"Isn't this a typical case of silencing someone? Now the only witness and the master are gone. With no evidence, you can say whatever you want."
"You still don't believe me and think I killed Master? Ah Mo, don't let the pain cloud your mind. What reason do I have to do this?
Anyone with a discerning eye can tell that someone is framing me. How could you, a smart person like you, not see that?"
Qi Minxiu was still trying hard to defend himself, but the moment he met Xiao Mo's eyes, the flickering light in his heart finally went out.
"Master has said that I won't kill you. Go away and never appear in front of me again."
Xiao Mo sniffed, stood up and tried to carry Nie Changyuan on her back.
Seeing that she was struggling, Qi Minxiu quickly stepped forward to help her hold on: "Let me do it."
"I told you to get out!" Xiao Mo shook off his hand and burst into tears again.
Qi Minxiu looked at her with anger and heartache, his eyes slightly red: "Amo, I really..."
He wanted to go forward and hug her, but when he was one meter away from her, she put a sword to his heart.
"Don't say any more. Let's part ways from now on and pretend that what happened before never happened."
She tried to look hateful, and glanced at him for only a moment before quickly looking away.
Because she was afraid that if she looked at him for a moment longer, he would see from her eyes that all this was fake.
Qi Minxiu looked down at the tip of the sword against his heart in disbelief, then slowly raised his head.
"Amo, do you really want to kill me?"
After saying this, he opened his arms, closed his eyes and raised his head: "Come on, as long as you can calm down and feel that killing me can help Master avenge his death, then stab me hard."
Xiao Mo bit her lip, tears streaming down her face. Finally, she retracted her sword, turned her body to the side, and turned to look at Shen Yun.
"Yun, let's bury Master together."
Shen Yun nodded without saying anything and glanced at Qi Minxiu cautiously.
In her opinion, she believed his words more.
But her young lady is now so demented that she dare not speak rashly. She can only wait until her emotions are more stable before speaking.
Qi Minxiu stood there watching Xiao Mo carry Nie Changyuan's body on her back, and couldn't help but follow.
Xiao Mo knew he was behind her, but she pretended not to know and let him follow her.
Nie Changyuan’s death must have been a blow to him. She had hurt him so badly, and she could no longer deprive him of the right to commemorate him.
Shen Yun saw someone not far away from them and wanted to speak up to remind Xiao Mo, but just as she was about to speak, she thought it would be better not to say anything and closed her mouth.
They had no place to set up a mourning hall and no time to buy a coffin.
They could only tidy up Nie Changyuan's face and clothes, and then buried him under his favorite plum tree.
