Chapter Twenty-Nine: Girls as Chess

Yan Zimu hesitated for a while, letting the girl hold her, because she didn't know what to do next.

Bai Jikao was interesting to watch, looking at the girl and Yan Zi thoughtfully with his hands on his chest, and finally took the girl away from Yan Zi's side, still placing her among these poor people.

The pauperas moved only slightly, not welcoming or unwelcoming. The little girl stood in the slum in a daze, looking at Yan Zi and Bai Jikao stupidly, wanting to speak but not daring to speak, a look of fear and panic covered her whole face.

Yan Zi looked at Bai Jikao's actions in surprise and didn't speak, she thought that this man would leave here with the girl, but she didn't expect such a tough attitude, which made her speechless and didn't know what to say.

On the contrary, Bai Jikao suddenly said, "She should learn to recognize her own position, if she wants to get out of here, she has to rely on her own ability, and the help of others will only cause her to fall into boundless darkness." The words were not loud but full of sonorous power, which made Yan Zi feel a sense of déjà vu.

Suddenly I thought that in the palace of Chaoheng Kingdom, I used to want to treat a crow like this, and I also said almost unkind words, but it was not unreasonable to think about it carefully. However, Yan Zi didn't plan to take the little girl with her, because she was not used to having strangers around her, especially when the little girl was holding her coldly, her body was a little stiff, and she didn't know how to respond. I know that girls are unintentional, but my body still unconsciously wants to resist.

Bai Jikao's behavior surprised her a little at first, but she quickly returned to normal, because it was the same as she thought.

"Alright, it's time for us to go." Bai Jikao clapped his palms and walked out of the slum with ease, as if nothing had happened just now. Yan Zi looked indifferent, smiled coldly, and left.

Unexpectedly, as soon as he went out, he saw a cold face and cold eyes staring directly at him, which made Yan Zi feel a sense of guilt, and subconsciously alienated Bai Jikao, and walked quickly to the person's side.

"Ziqi, are you back?"

Sheng Linsheng nodded slightly, and then moved his gaze to Bai Jikao. The innate sense of men's instinctive threat swelled between the four eyes, and lightning and thunder sparked everywhere. Even Yan Zi felt a chill that he had never felt before, it was really strange, why did he feel cold, and there was no wind around, how could he have this illusion.

Yan Zi subconsciously crossed his hands and rubbed his arms, trying to get some warmth. She must not know what kind of duel the two men standing in front of her are engaged in, and yes, she will not understand, this is a silent war between men.

"Hehe, this son, we haven't seen each other much, why do you look at Zai like this, didn't you do something wrong in Zaixia?" Bai Jikao asked such sharp questions again, trying to defeat Sheng Lin Sheng in words.

But Sheng Linsheng didn't answer, but grabbed Yan Zi's arm domineeringly and coldly and took him away from here. This feeling is like a big man pulling his little daughter-in-law, it is natural and smooth without any sense of disobedience, and what is even more terrifying is that Yan Zi is so well-behaved to follow.

It was not the same as the feeling of rejection that the little girl hugged her and then she shuddered and tried to escape from the girl's embrace. Bai Jikao watched from such a distance, looking at this extremely ambiguous but natural action, a nameless fire suddenly rose in his eyes. All of Fang Cai's words and eyes collapsed in an instant, and it was better to say so much than one action.

Hehe, he suddenly looked at himself with self-deprecation, but in an instant, he returned to his usual ruffian appearance, and the white clothes disappeared into the crowd.

Sheng Linsheng dragged Yan Zi back to the inn with his domineering death, at first Yan Zi, who was too angry, was in pain, and then he felt the little hand in his hand struggling incessantly before he realized that his ability was too heavy and distressed, so he took her back to the inn.

It wasn't until he went upstairs that he reluctantly let go of his hand, Yan Zi subconsciously glanced at his wrist, which was a little red and swollen, but quickly took it back and put it in his sleeve to prevent Sheng Linsheng from seeing it. But Sheng Linsheng really saw her actions, and felt a little guilty in his heart.

"How's it going, how's it going?" Yan Zi asked.

Sheng Linsheng nodded, "These people were all brought to the capital in one day. It was as if something was going on in secret, and I pretended to be the same pauper and got in only to find out that they had really been bought. From time to time, masked people will send money, and then secretly explain some kind of task. I saw a masked man find a girl before, gave a bag of money, and then whispered in detail. It's a pity that it's too light to hear clearly. ”

"Girl?" Yan Zi subconsciously thought of the girl just now, and a dagger suddenly flashed in his mind. It was the one the girl was holding in her hand, and at the time I didn't understand why the girl was so poor and why she had a dagger on her body, but now it seems that it was premeditated, could it be that the girl at that time wanted to kill herself?

Damn, it's really hateful, these people don't even let go of children, and it's really outrageous that they want to kill people at such a young age.

"What kind of ordinary person is this, why is there no news, so the enemy is really defenseless in the open and in the dark. I think they must have ruined my reputation through the poor, like a forbidden mother. People are terrible, people are terrible, and I have to be on guard. Do you think their leader will be the emperor of the previous dynasty? ”

Yan Zi guessed that there was always a pimple in her heart, that is, she failed to get rid of the emperor when she first ascended the throne, so she had been worried that he would do something secret in private.

But Sheng Linsheng didn't think that "he won't, is it still a threat for a person who cuts off his hands and feet and gouges out his eyes?" ”

"What, what!" Yan Zi was surprised, why did it become like this, who did it. I clearly remember that at the beginning, the civil and military officials knelt down and forced themselves to release the emperor of the previous dynasty, why did he still not escape, could it be that there was still some kind of force that hated him in the rivers and lakes? No, no, even hatred and even hatred should not come to such a cruel and inhumane state, not to mention that people already have a cloth cloth and what revenge can be avenged, it really doesn't make sense.

Sheng Linsheng couldn't explain this, anyway, when he went to see it, it was already like this. Maybe starved to death now, anyway, he didn't look any more, thinking that even if he didn't die, it would be difficult to gain a foothold.

This kind of inhumane practice is really outrageous, and even if you don't see it with your own eyes, you can imagine how horrible the scene is. Yan Zi subconsciously clenched her fists, trying her best to hide the nausea in her heart with an indifferent expression, she didn't want to be defeated by this kind of force. Now that you have the country, you should accept all the unknowns.

That's right, I can only think about it this way, so that I can feel calmer and feel safe again.

But in any case, whether it is retreating or facing head-on, the sunshine of the second day always returns, the cycle of the sun and the moon will not change because of anyone's smile and smile, everything that should be faced must be faced, maybe this is the will of heaven.

Yan Zi felt so, so he decided to get up from the bed and feel what was going to happen today, everything was new on a new day, even the faint moist air was new, and taking a deep breath was a hundred times more energetic, even if there were any difficulties, he could carry them one by one.

"It's good to be objective, give me something to eat, it's good." Downstairs at the inn, a gray-haired old man leaned on a quilt and stretched out a broken bowl to beg for money from diners.

The diners kindly injured a few, and those who didn't want to pay attention to it were free to ignore it. Yan Zi just went downstairs, and the sharp-eyed old man immediately stretched out the bowl to Yan Zi, and Yan Zi was slightly stunned and looked a little embarrassed.

Because she has been accustomed to not asking others for anything since she was a child, she doesn't want others to think about herself, but now is different from the past, she is the empress, so she should naturally have the mind to worry about the country and the people, not to mention that people come up to ask for money and can't help it.

So learning from other people's appearances, he awkwardly escaped and handed over the money, and the uncle hurriedly thanked him, "Thank you, thank you, the girl is really a good person." Good people will be rewarded! ”

Speaking of the back, his tone suddenly became tough and cold, and then the uncle quickly escaped with the dagger and stabbed it, the speed and the good disguise were overwhelming. A big cut was made on his hand, and then blood burst out, staining the tender yellow gauze skirt on his body.

didn't expect this to be the result, Yan Zi herself was stunned, she didn't have time to take precautions, blaming herself for not being such a cronie. The uncle suddenly became vigorous and wanted to stab Yan Zi again, but he didn't expect Sheng Linsheng to suddenly appear in the air and slam down the dagger in his hand.

The uncle was also shocked when he suddenly ran out of weapons, but he quickly lowered his face and decided to fight to the death with his bare hands.

Sheng Linsheng smiled coldly, looked at the old man who wanted to fight it out, and then he took off into the air and kicked the opponent's abdomen, and the whole person suddenly flew out like a big ball, directly on the pillar of the opposite shop. When he fell, he was seriously injured and vomited blood. Yan Zi quickly stepped forward and pinched the uncle's chin and asked who instructed him, but he didn't expect the other party to bite his tongue and commit suicide, which made people angry.

Sheng Linsheng also felt angry and a little worried, "I don't know what kind of organization actually trains people to this extent." They would rather die than betray the Order, and this extraordinary loyalty is terrifying. ”

Yan Zi also felt the same way, "That's right, I think there may be some kind of threat behind them, no matter what, this organization can't be underestimated." If the people of our great country become like this, the country will be in danger. It seems that this time out of the palace really saw more than heard, let's go to the slum to see. ”

The two of them were about to go over one after the other, but they saw a group of people coming towards this side on the way, and the four of them were side by side as a row, and then there were several rows at a cursory look, and most of them were poor people. They were all muttering something in their mouths, too far away to hear it, but it was certain that they were definitely not locals from the accent.
