When Shadow heard what she said, he raised his eyebrows and said with a smile: "Miss Lin is less showy than when I met you before, and more casual. I don't know what kind of adventure she has encountered."<
/p>
Hearing this, Jiusi glanced at him and said with a smile: "Why must there be an adventure instead of me suddenly waking up?"
Shadow smiled and said: "Miss Lin, don't tell me whether I believe this or not. It's just you who heard it yourself. Will you believe it?"
Jiusi shook the tea cup in his hand and watched the tea leaves rise and fall in the water, and said: "If I said so, why don't you believe it?
I just want to understand one thing. Some things are destined. No matter how hard you struggle, no matter how many changes you make, it’s useless. In the end, you still can’t escape the mercy of fate.
If that's the case, then why continue to struggle?
It's better to let nature take its course and live your life with peace of mind. Maybe one day things will turn around.
But you and your master, why do you have to care so much?
No matter how much I change, as long as it doesn't affect our plans or his arrangements, and I won't be disrespectful towards him, I think he won't care about the disrespect in my words."
Shadow thought to himself: That's not necessarily the case. Last time you teased him for being weak and accidentally dying on the ladies in the harem, he had been drinking tonic for several days.
He had a nosebleed after taking the tonic, and he still had to drink it. If it weren’t for the fact that several ladies were pregnant and proved that he was really good, I don’t know how long he would have to drink the tonic!
But he definitely couldn't tell Jiusi this, so he said with a smile: "That being said, this is a reward from the master, so you should accept it. You may not be able to use it one day.
Besides, this is the Imperial Order of Chrysostom. Even if there is no decree, if you really care about it, you will be disobeying it."
Jiusi saw that he insisted on keeping this order, and that it was for the sake of what he said. If she didn't accept it, it would be fine, so she nodded and agreed: "Okay, since you said so, it doesn't matter if she doesn't accept it."
It's not appropriate either, so just thank your master for me." After saying that, he put the token away.
When Shadow saw her accepting the token, he asked about his young master's whereabouts: "I wonder where my young master and his people are. If nothing happens, I should take them back to report."
As soon as he finished speaking, January dragged the group of unconscious people and staggered in.
The man who was originally uninjured and in a state of embarrassment, after being dragged around by them, is now in tatters, covered in dust, and has many scratches and bruises on his body.
It feels like being hunted.
Shadow didn't even need to send someone to check. He only glanced at them briefly and knew that they were all fine. They were just knocked unconscious.
He waved to his men waiting outside the door, and a few people came out and took the person from Yi Yue's hand. Then, the group of people untied the ropes that tied them one by one, and carried them out one by one.

Seeing this, Yi Yue curled his lips, glanced sideways at the shadow and said, "They have all left, why don't you leave?"
After hearing this, the shadow stood up with a smile and said: "Last time I underestimated the strength of the girl in January. When I couldn't have a good fight with the girl in January, I was injured and thrown out of the wall by the girl in January. This time I came here, in addition to
In addition to coming to pick up the young master, I also want to fight with Miss Yiyue again. I don’t know what Miss Yiyue wants.”
Yiyue saw that the meaning behind his words was alluding to the fact that she had defeated him last time because he underestimated her, not because she had won by strength. She looked down on her and couldn't help but said angrily: "What do you think?
If you fight me, I will fight you. Then if I want your money, do you have to give it to me?"
On the surface, Shadow looks like he wants to compete with Yi Yue, but in fact he wants to test her true strength. He can go back and prepare a way to deal with it, just in case the master wants to attack the Lin family girl one day, and they can't deal with these maids. But he was afraid that the other party would not agree, so he tried to force the other party to take action by provoking him. Unexpectedly, it had the opposite effect. For a moment, he didn't know what to say.
He thought for a while, and actually took out a stack of banknotes from his arms and put it on the table: "If Miss January really wants it, that's not impossible.
These ten thousand taels of silver notes are my family wealth. As long as Miss January is willing to compete with me, these silver notes will be your winnings.
Of course, this lottery prize is not given in vain. If Miss January loses, she has to agree to my request."
When Yiyue heard his words, she didn't respond immediately. She first looked at the banknotes on the table, then looked at Jiusi, and nodded, and she accepted the competition.
The duty of the secret guard is not to protect the master, but to deal with dirty things behind the scenes. They also know some killing moves that can kill with one hit. It is similar to the way Jiusi trained Yiyue and the others.
Similarly, the weapons used by the two of them were all convenient tools such as sharp arrows and short blades. Fortunately, they were not really fighting, but just competing and comparing. The weapons and hidden weapons were useless, otherwise there would have been bloodshed.<
/p>
The three of them came to the courtyard. Jiusi sat down on a chair and said, "Let's get started." Then he took a piece of fruit and started to eat it.
The two stood in the middle of the yard, neither of them making a move first, but observing each other's weaknesses, waiting for a good opportunity to make a move.
As a leaf slowly fell from in front of their eyes, the two attacked each other at the same time. One punched, the other kicked, then they both dodged and attacked each other at the same time again.
You come and go, but in just a moment, dozens of moves have been passed, and the strikes are getting faster and faster, and gradually only a blurry afterimage can be seen.
While Jiusi was watching, he would comment from time to time. With his leisurely attitude, Shadow almost got hit by Yiyue, but fortunately, he dodged quickly and avoided the swift blow.
It's just that the more he fights, the more frightened he becomes. Last time, she beat her because he didn't try his best. He admitted defeat, but this time he tried his best and still couldn't defeat her. That only means that the other party is really powerful, not really skilled.
Above him.
Moreover, he also discovered a problem, that is, this girl's boxing skills are very domineering and tricky. They are not like the boxing skills that ordinary people learn. If you are not careful, she may hit a vital part and kill you.
I don’t know how Miss Lin trained such a maid. If she could learn this method and hand it over to her subordinates, the strength of the secret guards in the palace would surely be improved to a higher level.
At this moment, Yiyue's fist that was attacking his face suddenly stopped. He was a little confused. Just when he thought the opponent was about to stop, he was kicked hard in the abdomen, which sent him flying backwards.
Before he could hit the ground, Yiyue followed up with another punch, instantly knocking him to the ground and kneeling on top of him, leaving him unable to fight back.
Yiyue reached out and patted his face, looked at him speechlessly and said: "I said, don't you know that you can't be distracted when fighting?
It would be fine if you are really better than me, but you are not as strong as me, and you have to be distracted to death, who will lose if you don’t lose!"
