Chapter 58
Li Ningyun saw Helian Yufu's shocked look and smiled. "Why? Yufu, do you think what I said is wrong?"
Helian Yufu shook her head and chuckled. "No, I just feel a little emotional. The Ayun who used to only think of solving problems with his fists has grown up and learned to use his brain."
Li Ningyun: "..."
Helian Yufu continued to joke: "It seems that you have been reading well recently."
Li Ningyun: "..."
Helian Yufu saw Li Ningyun rolling her eyes and chuckled. She stopped teasing her and said, "Actually, I know what you're saying, but war is too costly and our country no longer has the financial resources to sustain it."
"Besides, the Emperor wouldn't agree."
Li Ningyun looked directly into Helian Yufu's eyes and said, "Yufu, you've seen the emperor's current attitude. Now, you and your brother are the only two left in the Helian family. Aren't you heartbroken?"
Helian Yufu lowered her head, a trace of pain flashing in her eyes: "So what? If the king wants the minister to die, the minister must die."
Having said that, I still feel heartbroken.
The girl from the Helian family was loyal and brave throughout her life.
Their destiny is to die on the battlefield and serve their country!
But now he is suspected by the royal family he is loyal to.
As a general of the Jin Kingdom, he could only exchange peace for marriage.
How ironic!
Li Ningyun clearly caught the flash of pain in Helian Yufu's eyes.
She smiled softly, "Yufu, I don't need to tell you the current situation of the royal family. The emperor is old and confused, and overly suspicious. The two princesses are not wise rulers who care about the people. If this continues, the country will be destroyed in their hands sooner or later."
"Our ancestors sacrificed their lives to defend this country. Can you really bear to watch it destroyed by these parasites?"
Helian Yufu looked at Li Ningyun in silence.
There was an ambiguous light in his eyes: "Ayun, don't say such things again. You know that these words will cost you your head!"
Li Ningyun chuckled: "What? Are you scared?"
Helian Yufu shook her head and chuckled. "Provocation won't work on me. I know you're just trying to defend me, thinking we won the battle and shouldn't be in this situation. I know you're upset, but Ayun, you have to understand this: even if you want to rebel, without silver, weapons, or food, all your plans are just empty talk."
Li Ningyun chuckled in his heart.
I've been waiting for you to say this.
"I have all of these."
This time Helian Yufu was truly shocked: "What did you say? What do you have?"
Li Ningyun smiled and said, "I said... I have food, silver, and weapons."
Helian Yufu looked at Li Ningyun with sharp eyes: "Give me a reason."
Li Ningyun also put away his casual look.
She looked at Helian Yufu seriously and said, "I don't want the people of Jin Country, whom we have worked so hard to protect, to die under the incompetence of the royal family! You know what I mean."
Helian Yufu lowered her head: "Let me think about it."
Li Ningyun nodded indifferently: "Okay, think about it, I'm going home first."
After saying this, Li Ningyun walked out without looking back.
Helian Yufu just looked at Li Ningyun's back in silence.
She did not look away until Li Ningyun's figure disappeared.
The reason why Li Ningyun wanted to pull Helian Yufu into rebellion this time.
One reason is that Helian Yufu is the person the original owner wanted to protect.
There is another reason.
The original owner wanted to change to a wise ruler.
But the royal family did not have such a wise ruler.
Li Ningyun thought about it and decided to just let Helian Yufu rebel.
I am here.
Whether it is lack of money, lack of food, or lack of weapons and men.
These are not big problems for Li Ningyun.
If he really had no money, Li Ningyun would sneak into the Wu Kingdom.
Just loot the Wu State’s treasury and the ministers’ residences.
Then we can use that silver to attack the State of Wu.
Anyway, they all belong to the Wu Kingdom, we just need to return them in a different way.
Li Ningyun didn't think there was anything wrong with her behavior.
How does the saying go?
Spend other people's money and do your own business.
As for why Li Ningyun did not plan to be the queen herself this time, but pushed Helian Yufu out.
There is only one reason.
Li Ningyun is lazy.
When she thought about the piles of official documents and those incomprehensible memorials when she was the emperor...
She couldn't think anymore, she was having a headache now.
Helian Yufu was still struggling.
There is new development on the side of the male protagonist Wu Mingchen.
It turned out that after Wu Mingchen pushed the madam down that day, the two of them had a very carefree night.
The next morning, Wu Mingchen woke up completely. When he opened his eyes, he saw the slightly wrinkled face of the madam standing right next to him.
Wu Mingchen was frightened and kicked the madam to the ground.
The madam was kicked awake. She opened her eyes and saw herself lying naked on the ground. She was stunned for a while.
Only then did I realize what was going on.
Then the madam got angry.
She stood up, not even putting on her clothes, and pointed at Wu Mingchen's nose and started cursing: "Bitch! You were like a dog-skin plaster sticking to me last night, and I couldn't pull you off. Now you woke up this morning and you're just turning your back on me?! Who are you trying to show that face to?! I'm telling you! Once you're in my Jiaofangsi, it's impossible for you to get out! You'd better be obedient, or you'll suffer the consequences!"
After the madam finished scolding me, I felt much better.
She picked up the clothes on the ground and put them on.
Who is Wu Mingchen?
That’s the general of Wu State!
When had he ever been treated like this?
When I woke up in the morning, an old, ugly woman pointed at my nose and cursed at me.
The skin on her face was like an old lady's elbow.
It made him feel nauseous.
Wu Mingchen stood up and slapped him: "How dare you! Do you know who I am?!"
The madam was a little dazed by this slap.
After she realized what was happening, she picked up a chair beside her, swung it around and smashed it directly on Wu Mingchen's head.
Wu Mingchen's internal energy has been destroyed by Li Ningyun.
It also consumed all the energy of the night.
I feel very weak.
So he was hit by the chair that the madam Lun brought over.
Wu Mingchen staggered and was knocked to the ground.
I felt dizzy.
Upon seeing this, the madam went up and started beating and kicking him.
"I'm giving you face! Do you know who's in charge here?! And you dare to hit me! I'll kill you!"
Although the madam was very angry, she still knew her limits.
It didn't hit Wu Mingchen in the face.
If you accidentally hurt that little face.
My three hundred taels of silver were wasted!
Wu Mingchen was beaten and wanted to resist.
But the internal force in his body disappeared.
Wu Mingchen was a little flustered.
How can the internal force disappear?
He passively endured the beating from the brothel owner.
While trying hard to mobilize the internal strength in his body.
But what disappointed him was.
No matter how hard he tried, there was no trace of internal energy in his body.
Finally, Wu Mingchen got tired of being beaten.
He shouted, "Stop! I am a general of Wu! Why do you treat a general from Wu like this when he comes to seek peace?"
The madam paused for a moment when she heard this.
Then his actions became even more ferocious!
"Heh! Just because you say he's a general of Wu State, does that mean he's a general of Wu State? What evidence do you have to prove you're a general of Wu State?!"
Ha! So what if he is a general of Wu State?
He is not a general of their country.
Can he even jump over the stove and kang to manage the brothels in their country?
The madam beat him without any burden at all.
Of course, Wu Mingchen had no evidence to prove his identity.
The madam was not polite either because he said that he was a general of the Wu State.
The madam directly used the most brutal method to discipline the disobedient men in their building.
Just three days.
Wu Mingchen was tortured terribly.
Moreover, the madam even specially prepared the most poisonous medicinal bath.
This drug can change a man's body.
Wu Mingchen originally had a body full of tendons and eight abdominal muscles, comparable to that of a beauty pageant winner.
It was soaked in a medicinal bath and turned into a delicate little white flower.
Because the effect of this medicine is too significant, the effect lasts for a short time.
Therefore, the damage to the body is the most irreversible.
Wu Mingchen should forget about practicing martial arts again from now on.
I get out of breath just by walking a few steps.
And... he will never be able to have his own children again.
Wu Mingchen was devastated when he heard the news.
But he had no way to escape from here.
The three secret guards who had been following him and protecting him were nowhere to be found.
Wu Mingchen could only swallow his anger silently.
I tried to stay calm and pretended to obey the madam's orders.
Then find an opportunity to escape.
The madam was very satisfied with Wu Mingchen's obedience.
So half a month later, Wu Mingchen came out to receive customers.
The envoys from the State of Wu were already going crazy because they couldn't find their general.
The second prince refused to marry.
They had originally discussed this with General Wu.
General Wu came forward to negotiate a marriage alliance with the State of Jin.
But now General Wu is nowhere to be found.
What should I do?
Li Ningyun had privately looked at Wu Mingchen's current condition.
Tsk tsk~
That's so charming~
Especially the exposed white skin.
Countless guests who come here for entertainment are reluctant to leave.
Then, Li Ningyun saw someone spend a huge amount of money to buy Wu Mingchen a night.
The anger in Wu Mingchen's eyes burned fiercely.
Sooner or later, he will make this damn country disappear!
must!
Li Ningyun looked at Wu Mingchen who was dragged to the private room by the guests.
She chuckled and found the madam.
He directly threw five hundred taels over and said, "I'll buy that top pick."
The madam was about to retort.
When I looked up, I saw Li Ningyun's face.
I recognized Li Ningyun as the woman who had sent the man here before.
The madam was speechless: "Sir, are you using me to entertain yourself?"
Li Ningyun chuckled. "I think you already have some understanding of his identity. If someone really reveals his identity, how can your Jiaofang Bureau continue to operate? I'm doing this for your own good."
The madam hesitated. "Sir, although I paid three hundred taels for that one before, and you've given me five hundred now, I've spent quite a bit on him during this time... and those herbs aren't cheap either. Could you please increase the price?"
In fact, the madam didn't want to let the man go.
But she accidentally saw the jade pendant that Li Ningyun was wearing.
That is the royal jade pendant!
Although she was the madam of a brothel, she still had some good sense.
So she decided to let him go without hesitation.
But since the other party has not revealed his identity, it is still possible to ask for some benefits for yourself.
Li Ningyun smiled upon hearing this: "Well... I remember you have some special patrons here?"
The madam blinked and immediately understood what the other party meant.
But she was still a little hesitant: "Those patrons were so ruthless, would there be any accidents?"
Li Ningyun smiled and said, "It doesn't matter. Just move him underground and don't let anyone know of his existence."
The madam was puzzled: "Then you don't plan to take him away?"
Li Ningyun: "No rush, I'll give you three months. I'll come pick him up then, dead or alive. But there's one thing you have to remember: he can't be seen in public."
After Li Ningyun finished speaking, he threw the jade pendant on his body over.
The madam caught the jade pendant in a panic.
When I looked up, I saw the man leaving in a leisurely manner.
I always feel like I've forgotten something...
The madam patted her confused head.
Damn it!
My banknotes!
Li Ningyun walked out of the Jiaofangsi leisurely.
He stuffed the banknotes in his hand back into his pocket.
That jade pendant belongs to Li Ningyunshun’s eldest princess.
It’s definitely worth more than five hundred taels.
Humph~ You got a bargain!
The envoys from the State of Wu were still finding various excuses to delay.
They were sure that General Wu Mingchen must be in Jindu.
I just don't know why he didn't show up.
They can't look for people here in a big way.
I can only wander around secretly.
But they have been strolling for a month.
The pot belly that he was so proud of before coming here is now almost showing eight-pack abs, but there is not even a shadow of General Wu Mingchen.
Helian Yufu asked Li Ningyun with some confusion, "Have you received any news? What are those Wu Kingdom envoys hanging around for all day long?"
Li Ningyun smiled and told Helian Yufu what had happened.
Helian Yufu looked helpless: "Ayun, you are getting more and more naughty."
I'll go to that brothel myself later.
That general of the Wu State cannot be kept any longer.
If someone finds out, things will become complicated.
In the current situation, Wu State cannot find anyone and can only swallow its anger.
After all, they secretly sent a general to the country, which could not be made public.
But if they found that general.
That's a different story.
If they accuse the Jin State of secretly imprisoning and abusing the general of the Wu State.
Then China cannot explain it clearly.
After all, it is an indisputable fact that the general of Wu State appeared in Jin State.
When the time comes, they will turn the tables and say that it was the Jin Kingdom that sent people to secretly capture their general.
Then the peace talks between the two countries would once again come to nothing.
So at night, Helian Yufu took Li Ningyun to the brothel.
Li Ningyun: "..."
To be honest, Li Ningyun felt that letting the male protagonist die like this was too easy for him.
