"Keep going!"
Cheng Yue looked at the two of them and glanced at Cheng Jinxing from time to time, and said impatiently.
"What are you looking at? Are you afraid of our Master Ji?"
Cheng Jinxing gestured with a kitchen knife.
"We don't know any more!"
Heizi and Mazi's eyes flickered and they shook their heads.
"Do you think you can go back? It's best to speak your mind. The owner of Zhuiyun Tower is on good terms with the prefect, and we have a good relationship with the county magistrate as well! On paper, the prefect's position is higher than the county magistrate's, but in reality? I believe you understand."
"If you don't know what's good for you, I'll have Constable Cheng take action!"
Cheng Yue threatened.
"Alright! Aunt, give me the order and I'll act immediately without any delay!"
Hearing his family members calling him Constable Cheng, Cheng Jinxing was so happy that he waved a kitchen knife at the two of them in the air a few times.
Cheng Yue curled her lips. Look at how her nephew is showing off. He is not calm at all.
Under the threat of the aunt and nephew, these two people who knew the current situation told everything they knew about Zhuiyun Tower.
However, the two of them did not have a high status in Zhuiyun Tower and did not know as much about the core content.
After making sure that the two had finished talking, Cheng Yue asked Cheng Jinxing to knock them out, and then the aunt and nephew came to Shanshui's main hall.
"Aunt, the Zhuiyun Tower won't be able to be so arrogant for much longer. Master Ji has already set his sights on them!"
After sitting down, Cheng Jinxing said.
"How do you know? Master Ji told you these things?"
Cheng Yue asked in surprise.
"My master told me that! He said that after I've practiced for a few more months, before the preliminary exam for the martial arts examination, I can go and test my skills with a few people from Zhuiyun Tower. If I can hold my own against ten people, I'll definitely be at the top of the list in Yunzhou Prefecture. Alas, my master has very high expectations for me. I have to reach the top of the list in the preliminary exam. And then I have to intensify my training. After the preliminary exam, I still have to study! I thought I didn't have to study for the martial arts examination!"
Cheng Jinxing was excited and sad at times, and finally, he sighed.
"If the martial arts exam only involves martial arts, wouldn't that mean we'd be selecting a bunch of reckless men? Jinxing, you were smart as a kid, no less intelligent than Jinyan. The content of this exam is different from what Jinyan and the others took, so don't take it too seriously."
Cheng Yue comforted.
"Who knows? But I'm quite satisfied that the martial arts exam doesn't require me to study hard all day long."
Cheng Jinxing said optimistically.
"Aunt, why did Uncle Shanshui bring these two back? He should have just thrown them into the jail! The jailer wouldn't have given them any face!"
Cheng Jinxing said again.
"You think the government office is run by our family? We can throw people in if we want."
Cheng Yue rolled her eyes at Cheng Jinxing.
Then he added, "Maybe your Uncle Shanshui is looking for two sparring partners for you. You're too weak, so he doesn't want to teach you."
"Aunt, please don't be so discouraging, okay? Uncle Shanshui also taught me a few moves when I was a child, and he said I was a good candidate for martial arts. Uncle Shanshui liked me so much, Uncle Shanshui..."
Cheng Jinxing couldn't stand people saying he was no good, so he refuted it vigorously.
The aunt and niece chatted like this, and soon it was dawn.
Cheng Yue washed her face with cold water, found Shanshui's clothes and put them on, and went home before dawn.
After returning home, the Cheng family members had not woken up yet, so she hurried back to the house to put on her clothes, then went to Cheng Jinyan's house to get Cheng Jinxing's yamen clothes, and waited at the gate.
Whoever wakes up later, as long as they see her, she can go out.
