Chapter 116 Doing disgusting things under the guise of "for your own good"
As expected, a large crowd had gathered outside Yi Luan Charity.
Many of them were just there to watch the spectacle, since from ancient times to the present, no one has ever heard of anyone spending their own money to help the working class, except for giving money to distribute porridge during years of natural disasters as a publicity stunt.
Such a rare act of kindness during peacetime inevitably makes people feel uneasy.
There were also some people who needed help but came to observe.
There are many people in this world who have nowhere to turn for help, and even the imperial court has given up on them.
If there were truly a place in the world willing to listen to their difficulties, grievances, and injustices, it would be like paradise for them.
Looking at the crowd of people layered upon each other, Yu Zhiyi thought to herself that she still hadn't recruited enough guards or similar roles.
Fortunately, everyone was there to watch the excitement, and Yu Zhiyi was the very thing that caused the excitement. When they saw her arrive, everyone made way for her, and she walked in smoothly.
Hongluan also temporarily put aside her work today, changed into a light... men's outfit, and stuck on a small mustache. Standing among the group of people in the charity hall, she was not conspicuous.
However, Du Ziheng recognized her at a glance and couldn't help but fall into deep thought...
It seems that the wife and this "Red Phoenix" girl have a really good relationship.
Old Zhang had been looking outside countless times. When he finally saw Yu Zhiyi arrive, he hurriedly limped out to greet her: "Sir, where is my son?!"
Yu Zhiyi said, "Let's set off to find it now."
"well!"
Old Zhang readily agreed.
Looking at the noisy crowd outside, Yu Zhiyi said calmly, "We are going out of the city to search for someone. We should be back before noon. If you are interested in the outcome, you can come back to check on the situation then."
"Now, whether it's charities or nearby shops, they all need to stay open, so let's all disperse for now."
"If you need help but are unsure whether you meet the criteria for assistance, you can come into the store for consultation. We have dedicated staff, but we are short-staffed, so please come in one by one."
"In addition, we hope that those who do not meet the standards will not be disappointed, because those who receive help from our organization are unfortunate people. Not meeting the standards is actually a blessing in disguise."
Once the crowd had mostly dispersed, Yu Zhiyi had someone help Old Man Zhang into the carriage.
It was the first time in his life that Old Man Zhang had ridden in a horse-drawn carriage. He was very nervous and stiffened up, not daring to move, for fear of soiling this precious thing.
The carriage moved forward slowly, followed by several fast horses carrying six people from the charity department of the charitable organization.
Hongluan said that since the charity was newly opened, the people inside had never been exposed to anything like this before, so they needed to familiarize themselves with the business.
Getting involved in the business is the fastest way to become familiar with it.
So Yu Zhiyi brought them all with her.
Du Ziheng lifted the curtain and glanced behind him, his brows furrowing slightly: "Quite a few onlookers have followed us here."
These were all wealthy and idle people from the capital. Since it was rare for something so unusual to happen, they naturally used it as a source of amusement.
Yu Zhiyi was not surprised by this.
She consulted a divination before setting off today, and the hexagram showed the character "change".
This shows that today's results are not fixed.
And this variable likely comes from those who are just watching the spectacle.
as well as……
She said calmly, "Don't worry about them. The one you should be concerned about is You Bingyue."
Du Ziheng was taken aback: "Bingyue? She's here too?"
He lifted the curtain again and looked out, only to find that You Bingyue was not among the teams behind him.
Yu Zhiyi pointed in a direction: "See that tree over there? She's behind the shadow."
Du Ziheng looked in the direction she was pointing and saw that the big tree could indeed completely hide a slender woman.
"Now, please get out of the car and take her back to the city."
Yu Zhiyi wasn't worried about the other onlookers, but You Bingyue was an unstable factor.
Whenever she's present, things that should have been a sure thing always end up getting complicated.
The assassin incident was one example, as was the previous attempt by Wu Liang to assassinate Old Man Zhang.
If she hadn't used her most secret skill yesterday, forcibly calculating Wu Liang's life story without using his birth date and time, and then finding flaws in it, ultimately deciding on the method of "deception" to make Wu Liang lose his composure and reveal his identity...
There's still a lot to argue about what happened yesterday.
That guy is cunning and ruthless. If we let him go, who knows how much trouble he'll cause.
If he were merely fleeing out of fear of punishment, that would be one thing. But this man is murderous and jealous, and what Yu Zhiyi fears most is that he might harbor evil intentions and harm Miss Feng before he escapes.
The forced calculation showed that she had consumed a lot of spiritual energy. Fortunately, the Heavenly Dao later rewarded her with a lot of merit, which not only replenished the spiritual energy she had consumed, but also improved her cultivation level significantly. Otherwise, she would have been really frustrated.
Du Ziheng subconsciously spoke up for his beloved: "Bingyue is quite capable. Letting her come along will be helpful if she needs assistance. Besides, she probably doesn't mean any harm; she just wants to watch the excitement..."
Yu Zhiyi's expression turned cold: "Young Master Du, it's not only bad deeds committed with malicious intent that are considered bad deeds. Bad deeds done under the guise of 'for your own good' are equally bad, and even disgusting!"
"For example, yesterday, if she hadn't acted rashly, there wouldn't have been a series of troubles that followed."
"Yes! She meant well and saved Old Man Zhang, but because of her kindness, I consumed a lot of spiritual energy. Can you replenish my spiritual energy, or can she replenish it?"
"In short, even I am not entirely confident about today's events. I refuse to let such an unstable factor follow me. If you don't get rid of her completely, then I will have to use my own methods. However, my methods will definitely not be gentle. If I hurt someone in the end, it will be too late for you to blame me for being ruthless."
Du Ziheng was speechless after being rebuked.
With his intelligence, how could he not see that, assuming Wu Liang had destroyed all the evidence, the best course of action was to apprehend him on the spot when he committed the murder?
To be honest, if Yu Zhiyi hadn't been so capable yesterday, able to see through all the details of his life, they really wouldn't have been able to do anything to Wu Liang in front of everyone, and could only watch him leave helplessly.
But Bingyue was, after all, his woman, and he really didn't want her to be labeled a "troublemaker," so he gently asked, "I'll keep an eye on her and make sure she doesn't do anything rash, okay?"
"Not good."
Yu Zhiyi flicked her wrist, and a talisman appeared at her fingertips: "This is a lightning-controlling talisman. Wherever I point, lightning will explode there..."
"I'll go take her away!"
As the last word fell, Du Ziheng's figure disappeared into the carriage.
