Chapter 156
"Li Xiao, you'd better not commit suicide. If you commit suicide, I guarantee that your wife and children will be executed in Lingchi!"

Lu Hao's words were as cold as frost.

It turns out that the people in the Supervision Department are equipped with poison, the kind of poison that will kill them once they are caught by the enemy.

"Don't you know, sir, that harm will never come to your wife and children?"

Li Xiao roared angrily.

"I don't understand those principles. I only know that if you want to kill me, you are my enemy. You will never show mercy to your enemies. This is the rule of the Supervision Department!"

Lu Hao didn't care at all.

"Sir, are you still arresting people?"

Zhang Zhongwei interrupted and asked.

"Since Li Xiao doesn't say anything, forget it, you don't have to arrest people, just go and kill their whole family."

Lu Hao said it lightly.

"You... you are the devil! I said... I said it's not okay?"

Li Xiao collapsed to the ground.

"Say it, I'm listening."

Lu Hao looked indifferent.

"Since you came to the Inspectorate, some people have approached me and asked me to provide you with the whereabouts of the adults. They saw that it was a killer organization. If I didn't agree, they would kill my family."

"My subordinates were forced to go rogue, so I could only reveal your whereabouts to them. Please let my family go. Li Xiao is willing to die to apologize."

Li Xiao cried.

"Li Xiao, why didn't you tell me about such a big thing?"

Zhang Zhongwei asked loudly.

"A killer organization threatened you and said it would kill your family, but you gave in, and then you betrayed me?"

Lu Hao smiled calmly.

"This is indeed the case! Please have mercy, sir, I am willing to die to apologize!"

Li Xiao is a tough talker.

"Tell me, what kind of killer organization?"

Lu Hao asked again.

"My subordinates don't know anything about the killer organization. I only know that they are very powerful and I am no match for them."

Li Xiao said with a grimace.

"After all that, you have failed to get to the point. Now, you still dare to fool me. Li Xiao, you underestimate me."

Lu Hao was not anxious at all.

Because he could completely feel Li Xiao's heartbeat and breathing, and judge the authenticity of these words.

Although it can't be 100%, it can still be 90.00%.

"Sir, everything my subordinate says is true, I will never deceive you!"

Li Xiao still has a tough mouth.

To be honest, Lu Hao never expected that Li Xiao, who was also from the Supervision Department, was much more cunning and tough than Zhong Weidong.

Maybe I am merciful and did not impose punishment?

"Ruyan, cut off one of his fingers!"

Lu Hao's words were as cold as frost.

Click!

Li Xiao's little finger was broken alive.

"Ah ah ah..."

Li Xiao screamed in pain again and again, covering his fingers and rolling on the ground.

"Li Xiao, can you speak now?"

Lu Hao's voice was still calm.

"Sir, this subordinate... I really didn't... lie. Please... please tell me clearly!"

Li Xiao was sweating profusely in pain, but still spoke harshly.

"I didn't expect you to be so tough, but I underestimated you, sir."

As Lu Hao spoke, he motioned for Ruyan to continue the execution.

Click!

This time, Li Xiao's calf was crushed with one foot.

"Sir, I really don't have any..."

Li Xiao was so painful that he couldn't speak.

"Ruyan, if he doesn't say anything, the execution will continue until he is killed."

"Master Zhang, take people to arrest Li Xiao's family. I'm worried that he is stalling for time."

Lu Hao issued two orders.

"No! Sir...I said...I said..."

Li Xiao heard that he was about to arrest someone and stopped him again. "Say it, I will give you one last chance!"

Lu Hao's patience was limited.

"My lord, I want to speak to you alone."

Li Xiao said.

"Okay, you guys go out first."

Lu Hao waved to the three of them.

"Sir, be careful!"

Ruyan warned.

The three of them left the room. Lu Hao slowly stood up and walked towards Li Xiao.

"Li Xiao, tell me."

Lu Hao urged.

"Sir, my subordinates really don't know about the killer organization. However, your whereabouts were indeed leaked by my subordinates. This subordinate is..."

As Li Xiao said this, he suddenly got up from the ground and rushed towards Lu Hao, with a dagger in his hand.

"court death!"

Lu Hao grabbed the dagger and stabbed him in the chest with his backhand.

boom!
The door to the room was pushed open, and the Yi sisters and Master Zhang rushed in.

"Sir, are you alright?"

Yi Ruyan asked loudly.

"It's okay. He wanted to kill me even before he died. How much hatred and resentment this has!"

Lu Hao was very puzzled.

"Sir, this kind of person deserves to die!"

Zhang Zhongwei said loudly.

"Forget it, get rid of the body."

Lu Hao waved his hand calmly, indicating that he should be dragged out.

Who is Li Xiao?Why do the people behind this want to kill me?
Counting back and forth, Lu Hao has been assassinated three times, and only in the last time did he actually take action.

Who was this killer organization bribed by? It has always wanted his own life.

If it was the Prime Minister who did it before, but with his current relationship with the Prime Minister, he would not kill him.

After the corruption case, Lu Hao knew that he had offended many people, so it was understandable that he was assassinated.

Taking over the Ministry of Internal Affairs also touched the interests of some people, and it was still clear that he was assassinated again.

How come he was assassinated again just a few days after taking charge of the Supervision Department? It seems that this Supervision Department is not that simple!

There are many killer organizations on the Qianyuan Continent. If the enemy cannot be eliminated, it is indeed difficult to investigate directly by paying the killer organization to do its work.

Lu Hao actually didn't need to kill Li Xiao, but Li Xiao wanted to die. Even if such a person didn't kill him, he would commit suicide himself.

Zhang Zhongwei went to Li Xiao's home and found that his family had disappeared three days ago.

……

time flies.

In a blink of an eye, it was already evening.

Lu Hao gathered his mood, got on the carriage and headed to the palace, heading straight to Qianyuan Palace.

The current Qianyuan Palace is eerily quiet, and the atmosphere is solemn. Even the sound of everyone walking is faint.

"Eunuch Yan, how is your Majesty?"

Lu Hao saw Eunuch Yan when he entered the door.

"The Emperor woke up once at noon and managed to hold himself together. He wrote you a letter and asked us to hand it over to you."

Eunuch Yan said, took out an envelope and handed it to him.

The seal of the envelope was painted red, obviously to prevent tampering with it.

"Master Lu, does the Emperor have any secret edict for you?"

Eunuch Yan probed.

"My father-in-law is joking. Secret edicts need to be stamped with jade seals. Has the emperor stamped them with jade seals?"

Lu Hao smiled calmly.

"It's not."

Eunuch Yan shook his head.

"The Emperor must have felt that his sober time was too short and wanted to tell the slave something secretly, so he wrote a letter to the slave."

Lu Hao made a bold guess.

"Okay, the emperor is inside and is still in a coma. I won't disturb you anymore."

Eunuch Yan said and walked out.

Lu Hao walked slowly towards the inner room, opening the letter as he walked.
