Volume 1 Wanfu Li Chapter 169 Extinguishing the Mouth
Taishui Lane is really a little narrow, and the carriage can't enter at all, so if the guests who come here by car, they can only put the car at the mouth of the alley, Qiu Qiu doesn't like this the most, and I don't know why the woman chose such a place in the first place, the cramped and dark alley is very depressing and very long, and it is at least three hundred meters from the mouth of the alley to the woman's yard.
Qiu Qiu quickened his pace and walked forward, every time he came to this alley, he felt like he was walking on a single-plank bridge, the walls on both sides were full of knives, and under the single-plank bridge was a sea of fire.
At the mouth of the alley, there were still a few rotten old men who looked like they were about to sink into the ground, chatting, and all the energy of the rest of their lives seemed to be spent on such meaningless things, pointing at everyone who passed by with relish, and it was disgusting to look at.
Finally arrived at the door, Qiu Qiu raised his hand and knocked on the courtyard door, three long and two short This is the agreed code, so that the people who knock on the door will know that it is their own people.
The little boy in green clothes and soap boots opened the door and looked out, opened the door and asked Qiu Qiu to come in, this little boy was estimated to be fourteen or fifteen years old, and he had followed the woman since he was seven or eight years old, and he said that after getting along with a person for a long time, he would become more and more like this person, so Qiu Qiu looked at the childish face of this little boy and felt disgusted.
When I entered the courtyard and walked through the winding corridor, I saw that the woman was sitting in the living room drinking tea, she seemed to be always unhurried, in fact, Qiu Qiu didn't know the identity of this woman until now, but a letter came from the north, which was written by the big man, explaining that he must follow this woman's orders in everything in the future.
It was not easy for that big man to send a letter, so Qiu Qiu didn't dare to disobey it.
But he was not convinced.
What can such a woman do, in the past seven years in this part of South Vietnam, she has nothing to do, planting flowers and raising grass is all she has, relying on the support of others, and she is still living on her toes.
"The proprietor."
But as soon as he entered the door, Qiu Qiu's face was full of smiles, and he called the proprietor, and his tone was also very humble.
"Sit down."
The young woman pointed to the seat next to her, but she didn't know if she forgot or what, but she didn't let the little boy serve Qiu Qiu's tea.
"How's it going?"
The young woman asked.
Qiu Qiu replied: "Don't worry, they have all been extinguished, all the people who escorted the materials to Funing Temple have been eliminated, fortunately, our actions are fast enough, otherwise Han Zhaozhi will really find out something, and the host of Funing Temple really can't stand it." β
"All gone?"
The young woman smiled: "I don't think so." β
Qiu Qiu's face changed: "What does the proprietor mean?" β
The young woman held the teacup, held the lid in one hand and skimmed the tea leaves to the side: "The host of Funing Temple caught in Su Yuan is a fake, this is the news I just got, but although it is fake, in order to be realistic, he does know a lot of things, and he should have exchanged a lot of information with the real host of Funing Temple, so that even Han Zhaozhi didn't see it." β
Qiu Qiu was stunned: "If it's fake, why?" β
"Kill Han Zhaozhi."
The young woman said: "The fake Funing Temple host is a killer, it should also be from the north, I can't figure out which line it is, but it doesn't matter...... The important thing is that you said that the mouth should be extinguished has been extinguished, this is really a bit perfunctory, I know that in the past six or seven years, in fact, you have been disobedient to me, thinking that I am doing nothing here but being worshiped by you like a master, and you are wronged. β
"Grievances are grievances, I don't have time to pay attention to what you think and what you feel, I came to the south to preside over the overall situation, not to be your mother, and I have to appease your childish temper from time to time."
She beckoned, and the two servants in green clothes outside came in with a person, and before entering the door, Qiu Qiu stood up suddenly, and his face turned pale in an instant.
"What do you mean!"
He looked back at the young woman, his eyes full of shock and anger.
"I've been here for seven years, and you don't know my name yet."
The young woman ignored Qiu Qiu's question, but said to herself: "My surname is Yang, and my name is Yang Baiyi. β
She put down the teacup and walked to the door, and pressed her hand down, and the two servants in green clothes threw the person who was standing on the ground, this person looked dying, but there was no external injury on his body, and he didn't know how he was tortured like this.
This person....... It's Zhu Qi.
The last time Qiu Qiu came, he came with Zhu Qi, the two of them were officials in the same dynasty when they were in Nanyue, and they were both generals of the forbidden army, and the friendship between the two of them in private was also good, in fact, making friends in this so-called upper circle also paid attention to the right people, Qiu Qiu was the protΓ©gΓ© of Ruan Ke, the national teacher of Nanyue, and Zhu Qi was the nephew of the general Hulan Shengxia.
Seeing that Zhu Qi was such a person and a ghost at this moment, how could Qiu Qiu not be shocked or angry?
Yang Baiyi squatted down beside Zhu Qi, and his fingers gently slid over Zhu Qi's head: "Looking at the full appearance of Heavenly Court, I don't look like a stupid person, but I can't forgive people for doing things stupidly......"
As soon as she flipped her wrist, she didn't know why there was an extra dagger in her hand that looked cold, and the dagger slashed on Zhu Qi's forehead, Zhu Qi screamed and suddenly became energetic, it turned out that he was fascinated by drugs and other things before.
Zhu Qi sat up violently, just about to speak but opened his mouth and vomited, God knows what he ate, it was disgusting to look at it, Yang Baiyi avoided it as lightly as a butterfly, returned to the chair and sat down and crossed his legs, as light as ever.
"When you were still in the South Yue Kingdom, there was a nine-grade official named Ruan De in the Hubu treasury, right?"
She asked.
Hearing this name, Zhu Qi, who was vomiting a lot of meat and vegetables, immediately widened his eyes.
Yang Baiyi sat there and picked up the teacup: "How can people be so stupid...... Nguyen Duc was the one who made the account for you at the beginning, so that you could steal things from the treasury unscrupulously, and you stole the silver and rice for nothing, of course, this Ruan Duc can also get a lot of benefits, after the destruction of South Vietnam, Ruan Duc hid, but you found it. β
She glanced at Zhu Qi: "If it weren't for Han Zhaozhi arresting this person, I still wouldn't know that you had done such a stupid thing!" β
Yang Baiyi's tone suddenly became cold, and Zhu Qi struggled to kneel and kowtow: "It's me who was confused for a while, just confused for a while, and now there is a remedy to ask the proprietor to give me another chance, and I promise to handle this matter well." β
"You deal with it?"
Yang Baiyi said: "You went to Ruan De in our name to force him to hand over the benefits he got back then, but you didn't hand it over, and the silver fell into your own hands, if that's all, it's just that, but you shouldn't kill Ruan De...... You shouldn't have said nothing, just because of this little thing, what Han Zhaozhi can find out now is enough to make you all wiped out! β
"With Han Zhaozhi's means, what secrets can Ruan De hide in his hands?"
Zhu Qi just kowtowed vigorously: "Proprietor, listen to me as proprietor...... Ruan De didn't actually know anything, I just asked him to spit out all the silver he had swallowed back then, and he didn't know anything about us. β
"Do you think he needs to know? Han Zhaozhi only needs to ask what Ruan De did back then, and he can turn them all out one by one, and you can know everything you should know. β
Yang Baiyi sighed: "It's too late to make up for it now, but it's not meaningless after all." β
Zhu Qi seemed to feel the last fear before death, and suddenly tried his best to stand up and run out, he stumbled and stumbled, but he was also a general at the beginning, and his physical fitness was far better than that of ordinary people, although he had wasted a lot in the past few years, but his physical strength was still not to be underestimated, when he rushed to the courtyard, Yang Baiyi waved his hand, and the two Tsing Yi servants standing at the door immediately chased out.
Zhu Qi opened the courtyard gate and ran wildly, and the servants in Tsing Yi chased him into the alley.
At this moment, Qiu Qiu suddenly understood why Yang Baiyi chose to live in such a remote place, Taishui Lane was too long and narrow, and the distance of three hundred meters was Huangquan Road for Zhu Qi.
Two servants in Tsing Yi chased after Zhu Qi and knocked him down, one of them pulled out a dagger and cut Zhu Qi's throat, and the blood quickly flowed to the ground, Zhu Qi swallowed his breath before he could even let out a wail, and the body was dragged back by the ankles of the two people, leaving a long blood stain on the ground.
The old men who looked drowsy at the mouth of the alley didn't know how to come to the spirit, and they got up and went home, and soon one person came out with a wooden bucket, and the water splashed out, swept and dragged, and soon the bluestone paved ground in the alley became clean again.
Then the old men returned to the alley, still drowsy.
Qiu Qiu only felt a chill in his back, he knew that if Yang Baiyi wanted to kill Zhu Qi, there were a hundred faster and sharper methods, she did it on purpose for herself, so that she could see clearly this small courtyard, this alley, and those old people he hated.
"Sit down."
Yang Baiyi said lightly: "Zhu Qi deserves to die because he is stupid, he is greedy for Ruan De's silver, which is not enough to die, but he is greedy but he doesn't know how to deal with the aftermath and how to deal with it, what's the use of keeping him?" You're not like him, and there's a lot more I need you to help me with. β
Qiu Qiu sat down indifferently, his finger joints faintly white.
He sat there and seemed to be stunned, but in his heart, he didn't know that Zhu Qi had done such a stupid thing, if Zhu Qi had told him earlier, he would have let Ruan De be killed a long time ago, how could he be so passive.
Yang Baiyi is right, as long as a person like Han Zhaozhi has a little taste, he will pounce on him like a hunting dog, this hunting dog is a wolf to others, and only in front of Emperor Daning is he an obedient hunting dog.
"I'm going to find a way to get rid of Nguyen?"
Qiu Qiu asked tentatively.
"There's no need, it's been a day and a night, he's already said everything he should say, and it doesn't make a difference if he's alive or dead...... You go and deal with others, you can remember a few are a few, as long as you have been in contact with Ruan De and have been in contact with us, don't stay, no matter who it is, no matter what the relationship with you you has to deal with it, I hope you understand the environment we are in and what we have to do, once there is the slightest mistake, it is not as simple as you and me, we have moved the foundation...... Those you care about, those you care about, those you care about, all die. β
She waved her hand: "Go ahead, these people are still familiar to you, otherwise I can do it myself." β
Qiu Qiu stood up mechanically and walked out mechanically, looking at the corpse thrown in the yard, the chill rushed from his back to his head, he felt that he had fallen into an ice cave that would not melt for thousands of years, and he shivered from the cold.
