Chapter 5, Assassination

In the early morning, a few drops of rain fell from the sky. After the light rain, autumn became cooler.

As usual, Su Chen completed all the morning tasks meticulously, and then he was arranged by Butler Li to go to the kitchen to chop vegetables.

Usually what he hates most is cutting meat, ribs and the like, which is very laborious, but after cutting for a long time, he also found some knocks, such as where to cut, how to avoid cartilage, tendons and other difficult-to-cut parts.

Today, Su Chen was cutting meat very seriously. He was even carefully understanding the feeling of each knife piercing the flesh, and how to quickly draw the knife out and pierce it again. The maid who was chopping vegetables with him was shocked by his state.

, I’m afraid this is not treating pork as an enemy.

After finishing the morning's work, Su Chen went behind the stove and filled the stove with firewood while removing the red bricks from the corner unobtrusively.

This time he took out all three items and stopped filling the hole in the wall.

First he unwrapped the pear blossom cake and smelled it. The aroma was still intoxicating.

Then he started eating in big gulps. In just three or two bites, he ate up all the pear blossom cake and licked up any scraps stuck on the oil paper.

He then picked up the second item, which was a small jar of wine. This small bottle of wine was something he had accumulated over time. It contained more than one kind of wine, all of which were poured out drop by drop from the empty wine jar in Tianchu.

He didn't like drinking, and even said that he had never drank at all. He just heard people say that drinking can strengthen his courage, so he saved this bottle to strengthen his courage today.

After a few sips, Su Chen drank a small jar of wine in an instant. It was his first time drinking, and he didn't know the taste of wine at all. He just drank it like water. When the wine was all in his stomach, he didn't know what happened.

He felt a little spicy, and his whole body felt warm, faster than warming himself in front of the stove. Then a wave of alcohol rushed to his forehead, which almost made him faint. He rubbed his cheeks with his hands, trying to get the alcohol out of his face.

Go up and disperse, otherwise going out with a red face will definitely cause unnecessary trouble.

After waiting for a while, Su Chen finally felt that he was no longer so dizzy, and the redness on his face had receded a bit. The most important thing was that he finally woke up. He hurriedly went to get the third thing, which was a dagger. The dagger was

He picked it up while on duty in the garden. The original owner of the dagger was an internal guard. He accidentally dropped it while patrolling, and happened to be picked up by Su Chen. The internal guard came back to look for it, but Su Chen insisted that it was missing.

See.

Pear blossom cake, wine, and dagger were Su Chen's only personal belongings. Taking them out at once meant that he had to make a break with his fate.

He wants to leave here, leave the palace. If he succeeds, he hopes to have a new life. If he fails, death may not be a relief. But this is all for later. Before escaping, he plans to do something important that he has been looking forward to for a long time. Kill

Butler Li!

Although Butler Li is only an enemy on the surface, the person who is really tormenting him secretly has not yet appeared, or he may have already seen it.

But what he hates most is still Butler Li. The devil in the dark has already been controlled by Su Chen. He just wants to kill Butler Li, just like cutting meat, cutting him into pieces one by one.

After noon, everyone finished their work and went back to the house to rest. Butler Li was usually not in the kitchen courtyard at this time. This was usually Su Chen's freest time, but today he had to take the initiative to find Butler Li.

Anyone else would definitely not be able to find Butler Li at this time, but Su Chen had already known the trajectory of Butler Li's actions for today's actions.

In late autumn, there is a huge temperature difference between day and night. The warmest time of the day is in the afternoon. The maids in the palace usually like to go to the bathroom to take a bath at this time, and Butler Li hides in a hidden corner outside the bathroom in advance.

The wall he was sitting on had been tampered with in advance, leaving a small hole. The outside of the hole was blocked by debris so that no unintentional person would notice it.

Butler Li was watching attentively. After a while, smoke began to fill inside, and the spring scenery was bright. Butler Li's mouth watered as he watched.

Just as Butler Li was watching, his face was red and his heart was beating fast, a dagger was pierced into his body from behind his waist. Before he could cry out in pain, a hand covered his mouth, and then the knife was stabbed in the abdomen again.

After a few stabs, the knife penetrated into the internal organs.

Butler Li only twitched twice and then stopped moving. When he saw that the murderer was Su Chen before he died, his eyes were full of disbelief and shock. Although he expected that Su Chen would resist one day, he never expected that Su Chen would resist.

It will be so clean and tidy.

He didn't even intend to give him a chance to ask who was instigating him behind the scenes.

In fact, Su Chen had thought about this problem, but he had already thought about it when he decided to kill Butler Li. He could not make any mistakes. He just wanted to kill Butler Li, then escape and start a new life of his own. As for the person behind the scenes, who

It doesn't matter who he is anymore, he wants to make a clean break with everything in the palace.

Su Chen's plan was very thorough. He had been preparing for today for more than ten years. He had prepared every step in advance. He strangled the incision on Butler Li's abdomen with a cloth strip to prevent too much blood from flowing out.

Next, he will put Butler Li's body into a sack and drag it to the innermost part of the kitchen yard, where he pours night incense in the morning. He plans to sink Butler Li's body into the septic tank and let him die.

He continued to be tortured.

After disposing of the body, he would leave the palace as planned. Not far from the septic tank, there was a pile of tall grass. He had pried a hole in the wall behind the grass in advance and used the grass to hide it. Since it was close to the septic tank,

Patrols rarely come here, so this hole has never been discovered. As long as he leaves the palace through this hole, he will leave Yecheng as quickly as possible and escape the control of the palace.

Su Chen first searched Li Guanjia's body. He had originally planned that if Li Guanjia had any bank notes, he could use them for travel expenses after escaping. Fortunately, Li Guanjia did have a few large banknotes on him.

ticket.

He quickly collected the banknotes and prepared to stuff the body into a sack.

Just then, he heard someone approaching around the corner, and his heart suddenly rose to his throat.

This place is very secluded, especially in the afternoon. People from the mansion usually don't come here. He never thought in his plan that he might meet others.

The most terrible thing is that even if he had foreseen it in advance, it would be useless. If someone turned into this road, he would have nowhere to hide. There was no shelter at all.

At this point, Su Chen had no time to think about it. He picked up the dagger and rushed to the corner quickly. He planned to subdue the opponent as soon as possible, preferably knocking him out!

It's a pity that Su Chen has never practiced martial arts and his skills are not that agile.
Chapter completed!
