Chapter 172 Kickback

Almost as soon as Wen Hang lay down on the bed, a servant knocked on his door.

"Dong dong dong..."

"My lord, my lord, something happened."

A servant stood in front of the door and said anxiously.

"Something happened?"

Wen Hang was startled, then hurriedly climbed out of bed and went up to open the door.

"Huzi, what happened?" Wen Hang couldn't help but ask.

"Sir, Master Xiao, Master Xiao and his son are all dead." Huzi said quickly.

"Master Xiao?"

Wen Hang couldn't help but ask: "Which Mr. Xiao?"

"Sir, who else could it be, Mr. Xiao?"

Hu Zi couldn't help but smile bitterly and said: "Of course it is Master Xiao, the minister, and his son Xiao Ziyan is also dead."

Wen Hang's heart skipped a beat, and then asked: "Who is the murderer? What happened? Have you caught him?"

Hu Zi said: "It is said that Master Xiao recruited a family minister named Zhu Jiachuan. He killed Master Xiao and his son, and then took away the bank to collect the tickets."

"Zhu Jiachuan?"

Wen Hang frowned slightly, as if he did not expect that the murderer would be a family minister recruited by Xiao Han.

When Huzi just heard the news about Xiao Han and Xiao Ziyan's death, the first thing he thought of was Su Yu, whom he had just met not long ago.

After all, Su Yu and Xiao Ziyan just had an unpleasant incident in Jiaofang Division, and Su Yu did have the motive for committing the crime.

Even if it wasn't Su Yu, it was at least possible that he paid for the murder.

However, since this matter was done by the family minister recruited by Xiao Han, it must have nothing to do with Su Yu.

Moreover, Su Yu had only joined the Zhenwu Division for a few months, so he might not be able to kill Xiao Ziyan with his own strength.

"Sir, now that Mr. Xiao is dead, his position as minister is now vacant."

Huzi chuckled and said, "This is your opportunity, sir."

Wen Hang couldn't help but was startled, then he smiled bitterly and shook his head and said: "You are thinking too simply. I am still far away from the position of minister. There may be a chance for my official position to be further improved, but absolutely

It is impossible for my official position to be promoted to the position of minister, alas, why am I telling you this, you don’t understand even after I tell you."

"oh."

Huzi scratched his head and said with a smile.

Wen Hang waved his hand and said, "Okay, it's getting late, so you should go back and rest early."

"OK."

Huzi nodded, then turned and left.

Looking at Huzi's leaving figure, Wen Hang couldn't help but have a strange light in his eyes.

The position of Minister of Rites was something he never dared to think about.

However, due to Xiao Han's death, a series of personnel changes will inevitably occur, and the position of chief executive above his head may be vacant.

This was something he didn't dare to think about in the past, but maybe it could become a reality now.

He has even begun to figure out how to move the relationship around so that he can have the opportunity to sit in the position of boss.

Just lying on the bed, Wen Hang calculated it carefully in his mind, and couldn't help but shook his head secretly:

"It's a pity that I only have more than a hundred yuan crystals in my hands at present, but there are three people competing with me for this position. These three guys have all been rooted in their respective positions for many years, and their pockets are bigger than mine.

It’s too much, and with the little money I have, there’s really no way I can win.”

"Unless I can get a thousand yuan crystals in a short time, there may be a 60% chance."

"It's just a thousand yuan crystals and a total of 20,000 taels of silver. Where can I get so much money in such a short time?"

"well"

Just when Wen Hang closed his eyes and was about to rest, his eyes suddenly lit up as if he suddenly remembered something.

"I'm so confused. Why didn't I think of such an opportunity to make money?"

"Master Su from the Hundred Households of the Zhenwu Division, isn't he going to redeem himself for the courtesan Mei Ji?"

"The reason why I quoted 20,000 yuan crystals before was because Xiao Ziyan relied on his father's status to make a big deal."

"Now that he and his father are dead, it's not up to me to decide how much ransom I offer?"

"Master Su will inevitably give me a sum of money when the time comes."

Thinking of this, Wen Hang couldn't help but look extremely excited.

Su Yu redeemed Mei Ji, which was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for him.

By tomorrow, the person responsible for this matter will be someone else, and he will no longer have any chance to make money.

Now Mei Ji's body deed is still in my hands and I haven't taken it to the Ministry of Etiquette.

Thinking of this, Wen Hang hurriedly climbed out of bed, then called the coachman at home and went straight to the direction of Jiaofangsi.

When the clouds and rain in the wing suddenly stopped, Mei Ji could no longer bear the challenge and fell into a deep sleep with a slight frown on her face.

"Dong dong dong"

Just then, there was a sudden knock on the door.

Su Yu raised his eyebrows. At this time, who is still coming to visit?

The colorful and exquisite dice landed on the clone's body, but there was no way to use his spiritual sense to detect the people outside.

Su Yu couldn't help but ask: "Who is it?"

"It's me, Xiangxiang."

Xiangxiang's little face turned red, and then she said quickly: "An adult from the Ministry of Etiquette said he wants to see you."

"Master from the Ministry of Etiquette?"

Su Yu couldn't help but be startled, then put his clothes on his body, got out of bed and opened the door.

When he opened the door and walked out of the yard, Wen Hang, whom he had just met not long ago, appeared in front of him again.

"Master Wen?"

Seeing Wen Hang, Su Yu couldn't help but be startled, why is this guy here?

"Haha, Mr. Su, we meet again." Wen Hang chuckled.

"Master Wen is here at this time. What's the matter?" Su Yu said.

He didn't have any objection to Wen Hang.

After all, he is just a small person serving in the Ministry of Rites, so it is naturally impossible for him to offend the son of the Minister of Rites, the most powerful person in the Ministry of Rites.

"Haha, Mr. Su, I came here again because I want to talk to Mr. Su about Meiji's redemption."

Wen Hang chuckled and said: "In my opinion, Meiji's ransom price of 400,000 taels of silver is indeed lacking in consideration."

"After I went back and thought about it carefully, I felt that one hundred thousand taels of silver should be enough for Meiji's redemption."

"I wonder if Master Su thinks Meiji's ransom price is set at 60,000 taels, is it acceptable?"

"If Mr. Su feels that this price is still a bit high, we can discuss it further."

Sixty thousand taels?

Su Yu couldn't help but twitch the corner of his mouth. Compared with the previous redemption price of 400,000 taels, this was simply a broken bone.

But he immediately understood Wen Hang's purpose of coming to Jiaofangsi again.

Presumably, this guy already knew about the death of Xiao Han and his son.

And since Xiao Han died, he naturally no longer needed to pay Xiao Ziyan's debt, but took this opportunity to make as many friends with Su Yu as possible.

After all, in the Zhenwu Division, a man from a hundred households is already a very powerful person.

Of course, Su Yu also realized that if he came to discuss with him at this time, he might be thinking of getting a kickback.

Su Yu nodded and said with a smile: "The price quoted by Mr. Su really flattered Su."

"Okay then, let's set it at sixty thousand taels of silver."

"I wonder if Mr. Wen has brought Mei Ji's body contract with him."

Wen Hang smiled and said, "I've already brought it over."

It seems that he is really well prepared.

Su Yu cursed in his heart, and then said with a smile as usual: "Master Wen, wait a moment, I will go get three thousand yuan crystals."

Immediately, Su Yu walked back to Mei Ji's wing again, allocated half of the 10,000 yuan crystal, and then walked out of the room with 5,000 yuan crystal.

"Master Wen, please count and see if this Yuan Jing is enough."

Su Yu handed the Yuanjing cloth bag over and said with a smile.

When Wen Hang pointed out that there were five thousand yuan crystals in the bag, his brows jumped involuntarily.

He never expected that Su Yu would be so wealthy that he directly gave him two thousand yuan crystals as a kickback.

With these two thousand yuan crystals opening the way, he was already determined to win the position of chief executive.

"Haha, the numbers are correct!"

Wen Hang handed over Meiji's body deed, and then said with a meaningful smile: "Master Su, this is Meiji's body deed. You should keep it. If you have the idea of ​​redeeming other oirans in the future, please contact me.

.”

Hey, have you already thought about getting the next rebate?

Su Yu twitched the corner of his mouth, and then said: "I hope there will be such a day."

"Since Meiji's body deed has been handed over to Mr. Su, Wen will go back first and say goodbye."

Wen Hang picked up the Yuanjing cloth bag, then said goodbye with a smile.

Seeing Wen Hang's retreating figure, Su Yu glanced at the deed about Mei Ji in his hand, and couldn't help but smile bitterly and shake his head.

This is the importance of strength.

The previous price to redeem Meiji's life was a full 20,000 yuan crystal.

Just two hours later, he successfully redeemed Mei Ji for only a quarter of the original price.

And all these changes are due to the death of Xiao Han and his son.

If he is just a warrior in the body refining realm and cannot move a mountain like Xiao Han, it may not take long for Xiao Ziyan to use various methods to make him die unexpectedly and then occupy Meiji.

It's a pity that Xiao Ziyan didn't know what kind of person he had provoked, which caused him and Xiao Han to fall into eternal disaster.

"Su Lang, who is it?"

Just after feeling no one on the other side, Meiji suddenly woke up and turned around.

Now that she saw Su Yuzhu returning, Meiji couldn't help but ask.

"Oh, no one."

Su Yu pretended to be casual and said.

"Yeah?"

Mei Ji looked at him with a pretty face and said hesitantly, "What are you doing with your hands behind your back? Are you holding something for me to see?"

"Really want to see it?"

Su Yu pretended to be mysterious and smiled: "This is something that can change your life. Are you sure you want to see it?"

Something that can change my life?

Meiji couldn't help but be startled, and then said: "Su Lang, I want to see it!"

Su Yu handed over the body deed in his hand and said with a smile: "Here."

"This is."

When Mei Ji took the body deed from Su Yu's hand and saw the names on it, her pretty face suddenly changed.

At this time, she finally understood what Su Yu just said.

This is indeed something that can change her life!

Because of this body contract, she became a free body again.

After she was assigned to the Jiaofang Department these years, she longed for this body contract all the time.

Now when this body deed really fell into her hands, mist quickly accumulated in her eyes, and then tears burst out of her eyes.

She threw herself into Su Yu's arms, hugged his arms tightly, and her tears quickly began to wet Su Yu's robe.

Su Yu leaned close to her ear and said with a wicked smile: "I didn't expect that you have so many tears that have already soaked a bed sheet."

Mei Ji blushed and then snorted: "Humph."

She let go of Su Yu, then stood up and carefully read the body deed in her hand, then put it into a brocade box for safekeeping.

Seeing Meiji's serious look, Su Yu couldn't help but sigh.

She could understand Meiji's mood at the moment.

From tonight, she is free, and the shackles placed on her by the Jiaofang Secretary have finally been removed.

From now on, no one can force her to do anything she doesn't like.

And she has been waiting for this day for more than ten years!

The next day.

As soon as the sky turned white, Meiji had already gotten up early, and then helped Su Yu wash up and dress neatly.

"Baby, I still have to go to the Zhenwu Division. You know where my home is anyway. You go back first. I have just been promoted and there are still many things I need to do. I may not go back until very late."

Su Yu stepped on the sword and said with a smile: "When I am free in a few days, I will take you to buy a new big house!"

Meiji nodded obediently and responded: "Well, then I'll wait for you at home!"

"No, I have to entertain other adults from hundreds of households tonight. It will definitely be very late when I get back." Su Yu said with a smile.

"Oh well."

Mei Ji said with a look of reluctance on her pretty face.

Although it was only a day apart, she still felt empty in her heart.

Su Yu opened the door and left. After settling the bill for last night's banquet in the front yard, he walked straight out of the Jiaofang Department.

At the gate of Jiaofangsi, his subordinates were already waiting quietly.

Seeing Su Yu coming out, everyone said in unison: "Master Su!"

This scene attracted the attention of others.

Wearing a flying fish suit made of silver thread patterns on his body, Su Yu looked even more extraordinary.

As for the horses, their faces were full of envy. They might never have the chance to reach Su Yu's height in this life.

"Um!"

Su Yu nodded, and then said: "Let's go, let's go have breakfast first!"

"yes!"

Immediately, surrounded by nine horse boys, the group got into a noodle shop, had breakfast, and walked straight to the direction of Zhenwusi.

Jiaofang Secretary.

After working passively all night, the girls rubbed their sleepy eyes and got up to wash up.

But in the front yard of the Jiaofangsi, Meiji, whom she had not seen for a long time, was ordering the servants to move the packed gifts out of the Jiaofangsi.

This scene immediately attracted many people to watch.

Even the other three oirans from the Jiaofang Division also came over upon hearing the news.

Seeing that Meiji had put on a simple and elegant robe, the pretty faces of the three of them were complicated.

Who would have thought that a Zhenwuwei whom they could never have taken a liking to before would be promoted to a school captain and then to a hundred households in just a few months.

At first, the three of them were secretly laughing at Mei Ji, thinking that she had lowered the oiran's worth.

After all, how could a mere captain of the Zhenwu Division be worthy of them?

But now Meiji undoubtedly slapped the three of them hard invisibly.

Not only was the captain promoted to a hundred households at an extremely fast speed, but he also made an astonishing move.

He redeemed Meiji's life.

A song dedicated to Mei Ji has already made the three of them fall in love with each other, and they are even slightly jealous of Mei Ji.

Now it's good, the other party not only made a song for Mei Ji as a gift to Mei Ji, but also redeemed her.

How many of the dignitaries who come to visit Jiaofangsi are willing to redeem themselves for the girls in Jiaofangsi?

If a woman who has been patronized by another man is redeemed by a rich man, won't she be laughed at?

Besides, the beauty of a woman's glory lasts only a few years, so redeeming her life is undoubtedly an act of buying out.

Rich people are not stupid, so why should they invest in things that are destined to depreciate?

This is obviously far better than renting out.

Now seeing the happy smile on Mei Ji's pretty face, the three of them all felt extremely complicated.

They lost.

A complete defeat!

Because none of them thought they could find someone better than Su Yu.

When the hired helpers loaded all the luggage onto the carriage, Meiji looked up and looked around, then said with a smile: "Sisters, thank you very much for your company over the years."

"Meiji is lucky and has found a person worthy of trusting her for life."

"Maybe after leaving today, Meiji will never set foot here again."

"But Meiji still hopes that everyone can meet their beloved and live a happy life."

"Farewell."

After Meiji finished speaking, she and Xiangxiang walked towards the outside of the Jiaofangsi gate.

At this time, the morning sun had just washed away the blush, revealing a golden light.

The sun shines on Meiji's face, casting a golden glow.

This day may be just an ordinary day for many people.

But for Meiji, it is worth remembering throughout her life.

"I have to say that I have never envied any woman in my life, but when I saw Meiji, I thought she must be the happiest woman in the world, right? I envy her from the bottom of my heart, because I know that I will never be able to survive

she"

"Everyone can see how much Meiji has suffered over the years. The fact that she can meet her husband is the reward she deserves for her hard work over the years."

"Meiji, take my best wishes to you and stay happy."

"."

Watching Meiji's carriage slowly drive away, the girls in the Jiaofang Department had different expressions and felt complicated.

Su Yu had breakfast and then walked into the Zhenwu Division with a group of horses.

The boys returned to Xiaowei's Mansion to wait for news, while Su Yu walked towards Qianhu Mansion where Wei Lianyi was.

When Su Yu arrived at Qianhu Mansion, there were already six middle-aged men wearing silver thread patterns and flying fish waiting in the courtyard.

Unlike the young Su Yu, each of them is at least over thirty-five years old. In addition, they have been running around for many years, and their faces have added a bit of vicissitudes of life.

Seeing Su Yu, who was wearing a flying fish suit with silver thread patterns, walking into the courtyard, several people were startled at first, and then looked a little weird.

The news about Su Yu's killing of Jingzhe had already spread throughout the Zhenwu Division during the afternoon and evening yesterday.

Now that they saw with their own eyes that Su Yu was wearing a flying fish suit with silver thread patterns, how could they not understand that the superiors still recognized Su Yu's meritorious service and promoted him, a body refining realm warrior, to a hundred households.

He Bohong's expression in the crowd looked a little complicated.

If Wu Ling hadn't chosen to stand on the side of conscience and join forces with their remaining seven Hundred Households, Su Yu might not have had the chance to be promoted to the Hundred Households.

Now seeing Su Yu walking in wearing a flying fish suit with silver thread patterns, he undoubtedly had mixed feelings in his heart.

In order to be promoted to a hundred households over the years, he had to go through mountains of swords and seas of fire to achieve his current status.

But he, Su Yu, only used crossbows to kill Jingzhe and easily gained the same status as him!

Apart from him, Sun Xichui's expression also looked a little complicated.

Su Yu is the Zhenwu Guard under his command Lin Canglan.

How could he have imagined that Lin Canglan was still just a captain, but the Zhenwu guards under him were now on an equal footing with his superiors?

Except for the two of them, other people looked a little weird and didn't have many ideas in their minds.

It was just that Su Yu was lucky and picked up a hundred households in vain.

Even if Su Yu used a crossbow to kill Jingzhe, he might have risked his own life for it.

But in their opinion, Su Yu's ability to kill Jingzhe was nothing more than luck.

If he was less lucky, he might be the one who died.

"Good morning, gentlemen."

Su Yu stepped forward and greeted everyone with a smile: "My Su Yu, because of his good luck, he was promoted to the position of Hundred Households and served under Lord Wei. Please take care of me in the future."

"Brother Su, luck often also means strength."

One of the middle-aged men said with a smile: "Just like the Jingzhe you killed, if he was luckier, you might have died in the line of duty. Do you think this is true?"

"By the way, I forgot to introduce myself, my name is Hong Heng!"

"Brother Hong!" Su Yu cupped his fists and laughed.

"Sha Benliang."

"Brother Sha!"

"Yu Tianhe!"

"Brother Yu!"

"Liang Yuxuan!"

"."

After their respective introductions, Su Yu finally got to know all the households under Wei Lianyi's command.

After adding him, Wei Lianyi has a total of eight hundred households under his command.

Among them, Wu Ling, Sun Xicui, and He Bohong were among the hundreds of households he already knew.

In addition to the three people he knew, Wei Lianyi also had four hundred households under his command, namely Hong Heng, Sha Benliang, Yu Tianhe, and Liang Yuxuan.

Su Yu looked around and then said with a smile: "My lords, I have just been promoted to a hundred households, and there are still many things that need your attention in the future."

"I want to hold a banquet at the Jiaofang Department tonight. I wonder if all the adults are free tonight?"

Upon hearing Su Yu's invitation, everyone's eyes couldn't help but light up.

The news that Su Yu slept with the courtesan Mei Ji is a household name in Tai'an City.

Now that Su Yu is going to host a banquet for them in the Jiaofang Division, then Miss Meiji can’t come and sing a song to cheer up the entertainment?

You must know that in the past, even if they were adults from a hundred households, they had no chance to let the oiran perform.

Hong Heng rubbed his hands and said excitedly: "Hey, I wonder if Miss Meiji will come out and perform a song to cheer up the banquet organized by Brother Su?"

As the topic shifted to women, the faces of several adults from hundreds of families couldn't help but become a little warmer.

No matter how Su Yu was promoted to Baihu, his airs were extremely low at the moment. If they continued to hold it, they would look out of place.

Perhaps Su Yu's promotion method is very unusual, but now that he has been promoted to a hundred households, he is truly qualified to be on an equal footing with everyone present.

If you pretend to be cold in front of him, then if he gets involved with other households, won't he be the one who is isolated?

"Sure enough, women are always a topic that men can't avoid. When it comes to women, everyone's sense of unfamiliarity becomes a little weaker."

Su Yu couldn't help but curse in his heart, and said with a smile as usual: "Haha, you guys may be disappointed."

"disappointment?"

Everyone present was stunned, wondering what Su Yu meant by this sentence.

Facing everyone's gaze, Su Yu said with a smile: "Because just last night, the huge amount of yuan crystal I earned from killing Jingzhe was redeemed for Mei Ji."

Everyone: "."

After hearing Su Yu's words, everyone couldn't help but look at him in surprise.

Even for them, ten thousand yuan crystals is not a small amount of money, it is almost enough for one month of cultivation.

Su Yu was actually willing to use the money to redeem Meiji's life, which really exceeded their expectations.

You must know that Su Yu only has the cultivation level of Body Refining Realm now, and he needs a lot of cultivation resources to improve his cultivation level.

They could not help but be surprised by the courage of offering 10,000 yuan crystals to redeem Mei Ji.

Changing places, they didn't think they would be willing to spend so much money to redeem the oiran's life.

After all, courtesans will grow old, so they are naturally unwilling to spend the highest price on an object that is destined to depreciate over time.

Hearing that Su Yu actually redeemed Mei Ji's life, everyone couldn't help but have a look of disappointment on their faces.

I originally wanted to take advantage of Su Yu's glory and see if I would be lucky enough to see the oiran come to perform music tonight to cheer up the entertainment.

Now it seems that there is probably no hope.

Now that Su Yu has redeemed Meiji's life, he will naturally not let Meiji appear in public anymore.

"but."

Su Yu changed the topic and said with a smile: "Although Mei Ji has been ransomed by me, aren't there still three courtesans in the Jiaofang Department?"

"When the time comes, let's ask other courtesans to come over and perform music to add to the fun. Isn't it the same thing?"

When everyone heard this, their eyes couldn't help but light up.

When beauty reaches the level of an oiran, there is no longer any meaning in the competition of appearance.

Because they can be elected as oirans, play chess, calligraphy, calligraphy, play, play and sing, etc., it is already difficult to compete among oirans.

The only thing that determines the level of an courtesan is fame.

Just like Mei Ji had a song given to Mei Ji, which made her become the number one courtesan in Tai'an out of thin air.

And as this song "Giving Me to the Concubine" was spread to all parts of Kyushu by businessmen and travelers, perhaps the number one courtesan in Tai'an would also become the number one courtesan in the Wei Dynasty!

This kind of fame is something that the other three courtesans don't have.

Perhaps the people of Tai'an City know that besides Mei Ji, there are three oirans in the Jiaofang Division who can equal Mei Ji.

But after leaving Tai'an City, who still remembers the names of the other three oirans?

And they don't care about the oiran's reputation.

As long as there is an oiran who is willing to come over and perform music to entertain everyone, then the banquet will not be in vain.

Seeing the emotions on everyone's faces, Su Yu smiled and said: "Don't worry, brother, I may not be as good as you in terms of cultivation, but I think I can still be a bit better by calling an oiran to come over and present a song to cheer everyone up.

Certainty."

"Brother Su, today is the first day of your promotion to the Hundred Households. You are hosting a banquet at the Jiaofang Division. Why should I, Yu Tianhe, not go?"

Yu Tianhe vowed: "After the sun goes down, Yu will be there on time!"

"Sha will also be there on time!"

"Hong will also be there on time!"

"Sun."

"."

In the end, except for Wu Ling who had not come yet, all the adults present agreed to Su Yu's invitation.

"That's good!"

Su Yu chuckled and said: "Then we have agreed that after the sun goes down today, we will go directly to the Jiaofang Division!"

Then everyone started chatting, and the center of the conversation was naturally Su Yu, who had just been promoted to a hundred households.

"Brother Su, I have always had a doubt in my mind. When you met the Nian organization assassin Jingzhe on the street, weren't you afraid that you would not kill him with one blow and that you would end up dead?"

He Bohong couldn't help but ask.

After hearing in Lion Heart City that Su Yu used a crossbow to kill Jingzhe, he was undoubtedly very unbelievable.

But when he really saw Jingzhe's body, he could only force himself to accept this fact.

But he was still very surprised.

As long as there was a slight deviation in Su Yu back then, it might be another result.

There is a saying that is right, if there is no chance to enjoy the merit, then the merit is meaningless.

Obviously, Su Yu's last experience was like this.

If he dares to go all out to kill Jingzhe, isn't he afraid of being killed by Jingzhe in return?

Everyone's eyes couldn't help but glance over, waiting for Su Yu's answer.

They were undoubtedly, like He Bohong, very interested in what Su Yu was thinking at that time.

Facing everyone's gaze, Su Yu secretly shook his head.

If his true strength is really only in the body refining realm, then it is impossible for him to provoke Jingzhe under any circumstances.

But secretly, his strength is also at the Iron Bone Realm, and he can even compete with Yulei Realm warriors when all his trump cards are used.

Naturally, he dared to provoke Jingzhe, and even used him to achieve his own goals.

But what He Bohong asked was about his state of mind after encountering the Jingzhe.

What kind of mentality can he have?

I deliberately went hunting for Jingzhe.

Since they had to ask, he could only tell nonsense.

Su Yu chuckled and said: "I really didn't think much about it at the time. I didn't even think that I would be promoted to a hundred households because of this!"

"At that time, I just felt that I had a crossbow in my hand. Now that I have met him, I have no chance to kill Jingzhe!"

"Besides, Jingzhe has already tasted the feeling of being ambushed by us before."

"According to what I thought at the time, Jingzhe was already frightened at that time!"

"What I'm betting on is that even if the crossbow arrow I fired doesn't kill Jingzhe, Jingzhe won't retaliate against me."

"Because he might be thinking, besides me, is there anyone else ambushing here?"

"Instead of wasting time killing me, why not cherish your time and run for your life?"

"Just like I would not have thought that I would encounter Jingzhe on the street, he would not have thought that I was the only one he faced at that time."

"In this situation of poor information, even if the crossbow arrow in my hand does not kill Jingzhe, he will run away to avoid crossbow arrows that may be fired from other directions."

"So it's not necessarily true that I risked my life."

"Because in my opinion, even if I shoot a crossbow and miss Jingzhe, I will not suffer Jingzhe's revenge."

After listening to Su Yu's analysis, all six people present were stunned and looked at Su Yu blankly.

Everything Su Yu said was beyond their expectations.

Because what he said is indeed reasonable.

In the first wave of arrests that Jingzhe encountered, he was hit by several crossbow arrows.

Perhaps in the next few days, his injuries will completely improve.

But when he suddenly suffered another assassination, he would inevitably wonder, apart from Su Yu, was there anyone else hiding here?

He can't risk his own life to kill Su Yu because of the crossbow arrow that Su Yu inspired, right?

Presumably he would choose to escape immediately instead of wasting time killing Su Yu.

Under such circumstances, Su Yu's firing of this crossbow arrow could be regarded as a matter of luck.

If you are lucky enough, you can achieve great success!

Even if you are unlucky and miss, you can only sigh secretly.

When everyone looked at Su Yu again, the contempt in their eyes was undoubtedly gone.

If that game is compared to playing chess, then Su Yu, as a chess player, undoubtedly thought of various possibilities and made the choice that was most beneficial to him.

It is indeed not unfair that such a person can be promoted to a hundred households.

He Bohong couldn't help but be secretly surprised. The analysis Su Yu just made undoubtedly horrified him.

Can anyone really think of the fifth step before taking the first step?

"Brother Su, it is indeed very appropriate for you to use this frightened bird to compare the Jingzhe at that time."

He Bohong couldn't help but sigh: "Although it seems that you risked your life to pull the trigger of the crossbow to fire the arrow, when you really think about it, what you said is not unreasonable."

"Jingzhe doesn't know that you are alone, nor does he know if there are any colleagues around you who are pointing crossbows at him."

"The possibility that he would dare to retaliate against you is extremely slim."

"Under such circumstances, it is extremely likely that he will retreat, and you will get a chance to kill him without having to pay any price."

Others couldn't help but nodded and approved what He Bohong said.

Seeing that everyone looked at him with respect, Su Yu felt secretly happy.

He made it all up

It’s just that you like to hear stories, so I’ll tell you a story using the frightened bird.

He didn't expect that the response seemed to be surprisingly good.

At this moment, Wu Ling stepped into the courtyard.

When she saw that Su Yu was already mingling with other adults from hundreds of households, her pretty face couldn't help but be a little surprised.

Who would have thought that these guys would actually recognize a body-refining-level warrior as their colleague?

She could naturally tell that when the six adults from a hundred households present looked at Su Yu, they obviously regarded him as a peer.

"How did this guy do it?"

Wu Ling couldn't help but feel a little surprised, then he stepped forward and said hello to everyone, and said with a smile: "Good morning, everyone."

"Good morning, Mr. Wu."

Others also smiled and greeted Wu Ling.

Although Wu Ling is temporarily acting as a member of the Hundred Households, at such an age, she has already reached the peak of the Bronze Skin Realm. It is only a matter of time before she becomes the Hundred Households.

Moreover, being able to be promoted to the Iron Bone Realm at such a young age, with the financial resources of the Wu family, it is only a matter of time before he is promoted to the Yu Leap Realm.

If you can establish a good relationship with a future Qianhu master, you may not have a chance to be taken care of, but who can guarantee that your future heirs will not need help from the other party?

"Master Wu, good morning."

Su Yu greeted with a smile: "By the way, Mr. Wu, today is my first day as a hundred households. I am going to hold a banquet at Jiaofangsi to invite everyone to have a meal at Jiaofangsi. I wonder if Mr. Wu can do it tonight?"

Reward for face?"

When everyone heard this, the smiles on their faces couldn't help but freeze.

If Wu Ling also went to the banquet, how could they let it go?

Could it be that in front of Wu Ling, he put his arms around the girl from the Jiaofang Division and showed her how to suck him up?

When Wu Ling heard this, he couldn't help but look at him with a strange look on his pretty face, and said, "Mr. Su's wishes are understood by Mr. Wu."

"Wu is just a prostitute, not suitable to hang out in romantic places."

"Brother Su and all the adults, just have fun tonight."

"That's it."

Su Yu's face showed a look of regret, and he naturally just kept being polite. If Wu Ling really went, it would be difficult for him to end it.

It would be too unusual to take a woman to visit Jiaofangsi.

Everyone could not help but breathe a sigh of relief.

They are still waiting for Su Yu to invite other courtesans over tonight.

If you have gone to martial arts, how can you still play freely?

Su Yu said with a smile: "Then when the next opportunity comes, Su will set up a table at the Grand Hyatt Restaurant, and Lord Wu will be rewarded by that time."

Wu Ling said: "Then I will be disrespectful."

Then everyone started chatting and quietly waiting for Wei Lianyi's arrival.

It's just that half an hour has passed, but Wei Lianyi still hasn't appeared in Qianhu Mansion, which surprised all the hundreds of households present.

"Hey, why hasn't Master Wei come here yet?"

Hong Heng couldn't help but said in surprise: "According to the past, Mr. Wei should be back by this time."

Liang Yuxuan's eyes flashed and he chuckled: "According to my guess, I am afraid that Mr. Wei was detained by Mr. Wu and is discussing something."

Sun Xicui couldn't help but ask: "Did something happen last night?"

"hey-hey."

He Bohong chuckled: "Brother Sun, haven't you heard the news?"

Among the people present, Sun Xicui was undoubtedly the strongest and tallest.

Just standing there, with his thick arms and gnarled muscles, there was no doubt that he could blow someone's head off with one punch.

When Sun Xichui heard this, he couldn't help but asked: "What happened last night?"

Sha Benliang said: "In the early hours of last night, Xiao Ziyan, a newly promoted member of the Hundred Households under Master Zang, and his father, Xiao Han, the Minister of Rites, were killed in his study by Zhu Jiachuan, the family minister."

Sun Xi lowered his brows and said: "Secretary of the Ministry of Rites, Hundred Households of the Zhenwu Department? Tsk tsk, this minister has really taken advantage of the courage of a bear's heart and a leopard's courage. Aren't you afraid of His Majesty's wrath and sending out large-scale manpower to capture him?"

He Bohong sighed: "The Minister of Rites already has a very powerful task. I have to say that Zhu Jiachuan has really taken the courage of a bear's heart and a leopard's guts."

"I guess Master Wu left Master Wei behind to discuss how to arrest Zhu Jiachuan."

"."

Listening to everyone's discussion, Su Yu did not participate.

I guess they never thought that the instigator of all this would be standing in front of them right now?

After waiting for a while, Wei Lianyi walked into Qianhu Mansion.

Everyone hurriedly stopped talking, and then said in unison: "Master Wei."

"Um."

Wei Lianyi nodded, and then said: "I've kept everyone waiting for a long time. You must have heard that in the early hours of last night, Xiao Han, the minister of the Ministry of Rites, and his son Xiao Ziyan, who served under Lord Zhenwu Sizang, were all in

He was killed in his study!"

"According to the clues we have so far, it was the Xiao family's minister Zhu Jiachuan who did it!"

"His Majesty was informed of this matter in the morning. His Majesty was furious and asked the Zhenwu Division to thoroughly investigate the matter and bring Zhu Jiachuan to justice as soon as possible!"

"Which one of you is willing to participate in the arrest of Zhu Jiachuan?"

Everyone fell into silence after hearing this.

They are waiting to attend the banquet hosted by Su Yu at Jiaofangsi tonight. How can they bother to find the whereabouts of Zhu Jiachuan?

Wei Lianyi didn't seem to expect that no one was willing to accept the task.

She said again: "This mission is rated as level five. As long as you have nothing to do, you can search for Zhu Jiachuan's whereabouts."

Level five?

Everyone's eyes couldn't help but light up.

The criminal in the fifth-level mission corresponds to a Yuyue realm warrior.

It can be seen that in order to capture Zhu Jiachuan, the abovementioned measures to increase his mission level.

"Sir, I want to try my humble job!"

"Sir, I want to try even a humble job!"

"Sir, I want to give it a try even though I am in a humble position!"

"."

Except for Su Yu and Wu Ling, the other six adults from one hundred households spoke one after another.

A level five meritorious service is not easy to obtain.

Su Yu's promotion banquet can be rescheduled, but there is no way to reschedule it with Zhu Jiachuan.

"Well, then you all go and try it."

After Wei Lianyi finished speaking, he looked at Su Yu and said, "Su Yu, today is your first day of promotion to the Hundred Households. Do you already know all the adults from the Hundred Households around you?"

Su Yu nodded and said, "Sir, I already look familiar to you in this humble position."

"Um."

Wei Lianyi nodded and said: "Before you, there were seven Hundred Households under my command. Because there were three vacancies for Hundred Households, there were still three Hundred Household teams below that had no one to take over. Except for Wu Ling, there were

Every hundred households here have five additional teams of captains in charge."

"Since you are here now, I naturally need to get ten teams into your hands."

Su Yu said respectfully: "Yes."

Then Wei Lianyi looked at Wu Ling and others and said: "As for the specific team of captains assigned to Su Yu, Sun Xicui, He Bohong and you six hundred families will make arrangements after discussion."

"It is up to you to allocate a team of captains to each of you, and gather ten teams of captains to report to Su Yu's Baihu Mansion."

"Not long after, there will be two adults from one hundred families coming, and they will take over the extra team of captains in your hands."

Sun Xicui and six others responded in unison: "Yes!"

"Okay, there's nothing else to do, just go back and do your work."

"yes!"

Everyone clasped their fists together and bowed before exiting Qianhu Mansion.

Sha Benziliang smiled and said: "Brother Su, I have important things to do. I'm afraid I won't have the chance to attend your promotion banquet tonight."

Others also echoed and expressed their apologies.

Whenever there is a chance, they all hope that they will have the opportunity to attend this banquet.

After all, there is a banquet where the oiran can appear and perform music to entertain the party. They serve as hundreds of households, and they don't have the chance to meet them even once.

Unfortunately, a level five meritorious service was waving to them not far away, so they had to put their enjoyment aside for now.

Su Yushi smiled and said: "It doesn't matter. When this matter comes to an end, I will find an opportunity to entertain you all. I won't be in a hurry."

When everyone heard this, their eyes couldn't help but light up.

This guy is really smart.

Then the six of them began to discuss again, and after confirming how many teams of captains they had handed over, they each walked to their own Baihu Mansion.

Su Yuze caught up with Wu Ling and expressed that he wanted to take away the nine Zhenwu guards currently under his command to serve as his personal guards.

Wu Ling agreed directly without any hesitation.

If the Zhenwu Guards are gone and we need to recruit them, there will naturally be school captains to teach new people.

She was still worried about who should be in charge of the Zhenwu Guards under his command after Su Yu was promoted to Baihu.

Since Su Yu wants someone, let him take him away.
