Two days later.
The wedding procession, accompanied by gongs and drums, set off from the city and arrived at this village.
Looking at the rather lavish display, Xiao Xiyou felt a pang of sadness in his heart.
They've started to get jealous.
Zhou Zhizhi was wearing a military uniform and a hat, making it difficult to tell whether she was a man or a woman.
Holding a knife in his hand shows he is particularly vigilant.
She's the kind of person who really loves gossiping.
They even stood on tiptoe to watch the wedding procession.
Now the bride, who is one of the soldiers in their team, is dressed in the bride's clothes and has a red veil over her head.
She was helped into the bridal sedan chair in that manner.
When are we going to make our move?
Zhou Zhizhi is happy now. She feels that as long as she doesn't have to get into the bridal sedan chair, she will feel very comfortable.
Why are you in such a hurry?
"This bridal sedan chair is quite beautiful, and it's even more luxurious than the one used for the prince's wedding. Are you really willing to spend so much?"
Xiao Xiyou said this with a sour tone, and he kept staring at Zhou Zhizhi with a lewd look in his eyes.
It's as if if they hear something they don't want to hear, they could kill the person in front of them right away.
Zhou Zhizhi hadn't expected that she would actually feel a little guilty.
"Your Highness, what's wrong with you now?"
All she can do now is swallow her anger and try to live a good life.
After completing the tasks assigned by the system, I will leave completely.
Who would want to put up with such humiliation?
Only she, bound by fate, could continue to endure this humiliation.
Xiao Xiyou's lips curled into a mocking smile.
"I had no idea that the Grand Preceptor Zhou wanted to get married?"
Um? ? ? ?
Zhou Zhizhi felt that she recognized each of the individual characters, but it was difficult to understand them when put together.
What is this guy doing now?
"Your Highness, I don't understand what you mean by that."
She is a subordinate official, not a servant.
I am always very careful in my speech and actions.
I'm afraid of upsetting this person.
Even if you are cautious in everything you do, you can still get sarcastic remarks from those who find fault with you.
It's infuriating!
Xiao Xiyou snorted coldly, then flicked his sleeve and turned away, refusing to speak to Zhou Zhizhi any longer.
Zhou Zhizhi naturally wouldn't care about any of that.
As long as these things pass quickly, they will have nothing to do with me anymore.
If he doesn't bring it up, then don't even think about bringing it up again.
Anyway, I only need to save two lives to complete the mission.
But Xiao Xiyou was only pretending to be angry.
I'm even angrier now that they're being ignored like this.
But even if you're angry, you have to finish these things quickly before you can vent your anger.
After sending the wedding sedan chair out, each of them drank a bowl of water.
Everything had been agreed upon beforehand, and the others naturally understood perfectly well.
They all understand their current situation.
"Walk!"
After drinking the water, Xiao Xiyou felt a change in his body and realized that the others were in a similar situation.
The bridal sedan chair wasn't actually moving very fast; their speed was much faster.
They followed them directly into the city.
After all, if everyone just swaggered in through the main entrance, they would definitely arouse suspicion.
Xiao Xiyou hid behind the wedding sedan chair and followed it closely, very cautiously.
Zhou Zhizhi had already sneaked into the city and was hiding in what they called the royal palace.
As soon as the fireworks go off outside, they immediately take action.
It's almost dark now, and there's still quite a distance to go.
Even though it's a joyous occasion for their king today, it's a dark and windy night.
Many people are never willing to join in this fun, after all, they have plenty of money.
There's absolutely no need to curry favor with anyone.
Zhang De never imagined that marrying such a beauty would be so effortless.
He was quite drunk, and staggered in, leaning against the wall for support.
"My little beauty, I'm here."
He gave a greasy smile, then rubbed his hands together and left.
Zhou Zhizhi felt disgusted when she saw that smile.
She even took several steps back, but now she was outside the room, looking through the crack in the window.
After Zhang De lifted the red veil, the sight was very different from what he had imagined.
"Who are you?"
Zhang De's face was clearly stained with anger.
He never imagined that the beauty he was about to win over would suddenly disappear.
And who exactly is this ugly monster sitting on his wedding bed?
That soldier had actually drunk that water, and now he was just someone whose martial arts skills were slightly better than average.
Upon hearing this, he immediately stood up and slapped Zhang De's shoulder with a palm strike.
He immediately fainted and collapsed to the ground.
They didn't even have a chance to scream for help.
Zhou Zhizhi breathed a slight sigh of relief after seeing this action.
"Tie him up."
Zhou Zhizhi had already thought through what to do in her mind.
They'll definitely tie this person up and lock them up somewhere else first.
As for that so-called General Li, he is actually a bit troublesome.
After all, he was a bandit leader, so his background must have made him skilled in fighting.
"After you're tied up, you'll come with me, and the two of us will go outside and take a look."
Although Zhou Zhizhi knew she was indeed quite capable, tonight was destined to be anything but peaceful.
There was already a lot of noise and commotion outside.
The presence of someone holding a knife beside her made Zhou Zhizhi feel a little safer.
The two of them hid inside the room.
She would occasionally peek out from outside, but there were actually quite a lot of people outside.
The people here have this medicine; one dose is equivalent to four doses.
They did have servants, but ultimately they couldn't compete with the others.
Zhang De had already woken up by this time.
There were two people next to them, both of whom were also looking outside.
It was very noisy outside, with fighting and even flames.
I wanted to touch my neck, which was in excruciating pain, as if it had been chopped off by someone.
Where am I?
Even his voice had become slightly hoarse.
When Zhou Zhizhi heard this, she was almost startled.
When you turn around, you'll see that Zhang De, who was lying on the ground, has already sat up.
What are you doing?
"Why are you binding me? Untie me at once!"
