Compared with the faint smile she had previously smiled, this smile, with red lips, white teeth, and picturesque eyebrows, made the whole elegant room lively in an instant, and even the snowflakes falling in from the window were very playful.
Because of the special status of both parties, and because she was talking about this, many questions had to be answered, but Nie Huimo's curiosity was truly aroused.
There was another knock on the door, and this time it was Ling Yang who came in.
Xin Shun went to the door, Ling Yang lowered his head and whispered quickly in his ear. Xin Shun's expression changed drastically, and he raised his hand to signal him to leave first.
Nie Huimo raised his eyes and looked at Xin Shun approaching: "What's the matter?"
Xin Shun looked at Xia Zhaoyi and Zhan Ning opposite the case table.
The two of them drank tea and drank wine leisurely, and their movements were quite synchronized.
Xin Shun paused for a moment and said in a deep voice: "A horse has traveled thousands of miles to report that General Bing Qi of the Eastern Route Army was attacked at night in Lishi Township. The attackers were Xie Zicheng and Qian Fengrong."
This news will spread soon, so there is nothing unspeakable in front of Xia Zhaoyi, she will know sooner or later.
"Bing Qi's life or death?"
"Death, head...beheaded."
Nie Huimo was surprisingly calm and said calmly: "An army of 150,000 cannot stop Xie Zhong, so Bing Qi will die."
Xin Shun glanced at Xia Zhaoyi again and said to Nie Huimo: "All the hairpin girls in the three villages near Lishi Township were kidnapped by Xie Zhong's men, a total of 629 people. The letter claimed that Qian Fengrong was lustful.
.”
"Bang!" Nie Huimo punched the long case.
Lishi Township is in Jinzhou, the first large province to the east of Ye Xunling, and it was one of the first several provinces captured by Tian Dayao.
Due to famine and heavy taxes in Lishi Township, when Tian Dayao came over, a large number of farmers took the initiative to join the barracks. Now that something happened in Lishi Township, the soldiers and horses in the barracks will definitely be furious.
Xia Zhaoyi put down the tea cup and said in a cold voice: "I still owe you a promise. If you want money to honor your head, I can go."
Nie Huimo paused and looked towards her.
Xia Zhaoyi raised his eyes from the teacup and looked at Nie Huimo calmly: "You can torture him, I have poison."
"I don't need you yet." Nie Huimo said coldly.
"Then I hope you kill him as soon as possible." After saying that, Xia Zhaoyi took out a small pale white bamboo tube from his sleeve, put it on the table and pushed it away.
"What is it?" Nie Huimo looked at it without moving.
"If you can really succeed and capture him alive, be sure to pour this thing on his wound and kill him for three days."
Nie Huimo frowned slightly: "You want to torture him?"
"It's torture." Xia Zhaoyi smiled lightly, with two sweet little pear circles on her lips.
During Nie Huimo's meal, Xia Zhaoyi only touched half a cup of tea.
After learning that Qian Fengrong abducted girls from three villages, she recalled Shi Xiuqi from Qingxiang Village and lost her appetite at all.
Zhan Ning ate a little more than she did, but not much.
Xin Shun sent them downstairs, and when the waiter went to fetch the horse, Xin Shun said in a very soft voice: "Girls, if you encounter any difficulties when visiting Huazhou, you can write to this inn."
Xia Zhaoyi smiled: "Sir, do you look down on me?"
Xin Shun really liked the confidence in the girl's eyes, and said hurriedly: "No, no, the girl has magical powers and can do anything, but in life, there will always be times when you need the help of friends."
Seeing his sincere face, Xia Zhaoyi could only raise her hand and say, "Thank you, sir."
Watching Xia Zhaoyi and Zhan Ning leave, Xin Shun sighed deeply and turned back to the private room upstairs.
He thought Nie Huimo would be by the window or on the terrace, but he still sat behind the case, looking down at the small bamboo tube.
The small bamboo tube is very light and contains medicinal powder. There is no word on the bamboo tube, only the word "three" carved in wood.
"General." Xin Shun called.
"she left?"
"Well, let's go."
Nie Huimo looked at Xin Shun: "What do you think?"
"What does the general mean? Miss Ali wants to attack Huazhou, or does she also want to deal with Qian Fengrong?"
"both."
"Huazhou... is not easy to fight. Qian Fengrong is as strong as an ox and is not easy to kill. But what does the general think? If Miss Ali really attacks Huazhou, we are close at hand and may be able to send troops to help."
"Help?" Nie Huimo sneered, "Help for what? Isn't it the best place to watch the fire from across the bank? I wish she would be beaten to pieces and run to me for help."
"Oh," Xin Shun said in disgust, "General, you are so rough!"
"snort."
Xia Zhaoyi did not leave immediately. Instead, he found a writer in a busy market nearby and asked him to draft a reward order.
These writers usually don't make any comments. They just write whatever the customers say.
But at this moment, the writer's face showed great surprise, and he looked at the girl blankly for a while.
"This... girl, do you really want to write like this?"
"Write it."
Zhan Ning also felt something was wrong: "Second Miss, it's not good..."
"There's nothing wrong with it, that's all."
"No, no," the gentleman who wrote still wanted to fight for it, said, "Girl, I don't know who this Qian Fengrong is, but to offend the girl like this, he must be a scum, scum, and bastard. This piece of meat in this person's crotch is definitely hard to find.
It’s worth so much silver. Maybe when he sees someone offering a reward of a thousand gold for his thing, he will be very happy and proud of it!”
"That's right," Zhan Ning said, "Second Miss, I am a man, and I know that many men are like this. They are shameless and extremely mean."
"I don't know about that," Xia Zhaoyi frowned, "It's just that there must be a brave man under a heavy reward. Wouldn't he be frowning all the time, afraid that the person next to him will chop him with a knife?"
"That may be true," the writer found it difficult to explain clearly to her, "but girl, he will definitely be complacent. If the girl spends a lot of money, it will only increase his prestige, wouldn't it be a big loss?"
"This can still be impressive." Xia Zhaoyi found it hard to understand.
"Yes." Zhan Ning nodded.
After thinking for a while, Xia Zhaoyi said: "So, the head is worth a thousand gold, and the thing is worth ten taels."
The writer almost choked on his own saliva.
"Second Miss," Zhan Ning called Xia Zhaoyi aside, "Why does Second Miss have to be obsessed with...obsessed with that person or thing?"
"Because he is cheap." Xia Zhaoyi said.
Zhan Ning's expression changed slightly, his eyes widened slightly, and he looked at her in disbelief.
I have been following the girl for a while and rarely hear her speak like this. Could it be...
Xia Zhaoyi could understand what he meant now, so he lowered his voice and told what he did in Qingxiang Village, as well as Zhi Changle's almost death, plus what he heard today, girls from three villages in Lishi Township were murdered.
Captivity,
Xia Zhaoyi had many enemies, including Li Ju, Tao Lan, and Yan Qinglin, but when it came to being disgusted and disgusted, only Qian Fengrong was the one.
"I understand, this extremely evil person really deserves to be castrated!" Zhan Ning said angrily, "But Miss Second, I may misunderstand, and many people in this world will misunderstand even the most trivial things, so...
…”
"Who cares about those people's misunderstanding?" Xia Zhaoyi said.
Zhan Ning paused.
Xia Zhaoyi smiled: "I have been notorious in the world for a long time. It is said that I have everything. Ever since I entered the capital, people have been saying that I am a devil boy or a criminal. Just spread it. I like these bad reputations."
"But when a girl's innocence is stained, it's always..."
Xia Zhaoyi blinked, his eyes suddenly brightened, and he looked towards Zhan Ning.
Zhan Ning was caught by her glance and suddenly didn't know what to say: "Uh, Second Miss?"
"You are right," Xia Zhaoyi said. "For a girl's family, to have her innocence tainted is a treasonous crime that will not allow her to enter the temple of filial piety. A hundred years ago, even if she cut off one of her arms, she would still be in trouble.
It’s not like the chaste martyr’s archway.”
"Uh..." Zhan Ning didn't know what she wanted to say and couldn't follow her train of thought.
"Okay," Xia Zhaoyi laughed, "There needs to be such a girl in this world to stand up and be a monument. In this way, in the future, if the so-called innocence is stained, for a girl's family, you can go and see it.
Then how did Ah Li do it? Just write it like that! People in the world love to spread the word, but I’m afraid they won’t be able to spread it!”
