Ye Xiaoxiao smiled gently at the man, then frivolously lifted his chin with her hand.
"I've already said that I'm the heroine of today's banquet. My name is Ye Xiaoxiao, and I'm the newly adopted daughter of the Ye family."
"As for what I want to do? It's actually very simple. I want you to do something for me."
A hint of mockery flashed in the man's eyes. "It's well known that the Ye family's newly adopted eldest daughter is an ugly fool."
"It's okay that she's ugly, but she's also an unfaithful shrew. How could she possibly have the skills you have?"
"Although I haven't seen your face, I can tell from your eyes and eyebrows that you are a beautiful woman."
"However, no matter how beautiful you are, it is impossible for me to do things for you."
The man observed the changes in Ye Xiaoxiao's expression as he spoke. When he saw Ye Xiaoxiao smiling happily because of his praise, he immediately launched a sneak attack.
Unfortunately, Ye Xiaoxiao had been prepared. As soon as the man moved, Ye Xiaoxiao suddenly pointed at a certain part of the man's body, and the man suddenly felt his hands become powerless.
"You don't have to waste your energy. Since I said I want you to work for me, I naturally have plenty of ways to subdue you."
The man felt a little frustrated. He had suffered too many losses at the hands of Ye Xiaoxiao today, which made him feel ashamed and helpless.
Seeing that the man no longer resisted, Ye Xiaoxiao looked at him with a smile.
"Don't be so angry. You're poisoned. Without my antidote, you won't survive tonight."
"I saved you, and you repay me. Isn't this only natural?"
"I know you have unfinished business. Don't worry, I won't stop you. On the contrary, if you can help me, maybe I can help you too."
The man snorted disdainfully, "Who do you think you are? Do you know what I want to do?"
"Even if you are really the newly recognized eldest daughter of the Ye family, don't you think that what you said is a bit shameless?"
Ye Xiaoxiao did not argue with him. She looked at the man's expression and said seriously.
"Okay, enough nonsense, let's get straight to the point."
"It's a waste for your No. 1 Village in the World to just accept assassination missions. I want you to help me gather intelligence while accepting these missions."
The man was shocked. He thought Ye Xiaoxiao was just trying to trick him at first, but he didn't expect that the other party actually knew him.
Seeing the surprise in the man's eyes, Ye Xiaoxiao continued.
"Not only do I know that you are the owner of the world's number one manor, I also know that you are the unfavored prince of Dayu Kingdom."
"You have been hunted by Prince Dayu, so you had no choice but to hide in our Daxia territory."
"The poison in your body was put there by Prince Dayu's men when you were forced to leave Dayu many years ago."
"But you can rest assured now. I have cured the poison in your body."
After Ye Xiaoxiao finished speaking, she looked at the man opposite her quietly without saying another word.
A trace of struggle flashed in the man's eyes, and then a strong hatred burst out of his eyes, and then he closed his eyes helplessly.
After a long time, the man opened his eyes again, sighed, and then spoke.
"What have you done to me? How can I be sure that you won't do anything bad to me?"
Ye Xiaoxiao spread her hands, and the man instantly regained some strength. Ye Xiaoxiao helped him sit on the chair, and then slowly spoke.
"If I wanted to harm you, there would be no need to save you. I could just watch you die from the poison."
"You also know how difficult it is to cure the poison in your body, but I can cure it, which is enough to prove my strength."
"So, you should believe that if I wanted to kill you, I wouldn't need to do anything special to you."
"But you pose no threat to me. On the contrary, we can help each other, so I have no reason to harm you."
The man was puzzled. "What's the point of you, a lady from a general's mansion, gathering intelligence?"
Ye Xiaoxiao did not hide it, "Daxia's situation is different from yours, Dayu. Although Daxia is powerful, the emperor is old, and the princes have long been vying for the throne."
"As a family of military commanders, our Ye family holds military power, so naturally we are the object of competition among the princes."
"However, since ancient times, when the rabbit dies, the dog is abandoned. I don't want the monarch that my Ye family has worked so hard to assist to end up becoming the murderer who wipes out my Ye family."
"So, I need information, and your No. 1 Village in the World is just the right place."
A dark glint flashed in the man's eyes, but he did not doubt Ye Xiaoxiao's words.
However, he didn't expect that Ye Xiaoxiao, at such a young age, could have such a smart mind.
There was just one thing he didn't quite understand. He had no choice but to hide in the Ye family today. How did Ye Xiaoxiao know that he would be here?
Although Ye Xiaoxiao could see the man's doubts, she would not tell him that she was a book traveler.
"You don't need to wonder how I know you. You just need to know that I have no hostility towards you. On the contrary, I saved you."
"Now, Prince Dayu, you can tell me your name and your answer."
Ye Xiaoxiao's eyes were calm, but the man did not dare to underestimate her at all. After a long time, he finally spoke.
"Yes, I am indeed the unfavored third prince of Dayu. My name is Dugu Xin."
"I am also the owner of the number one manor in the world, nicknamed Master Yuli."
"At the same time, I have another name that very few people know, and that is Tan Lang, the number one killer in the world's number one village."
Ye Xiaoxiao was a little surprised, she also knew about this Tan Lang.
In the original book, every time Ye Xinxin asked Dugu Xin for help, Dugu Xin would send a killer named Tanlang.
