Zhao Linger's hand had been stretched out for a long time.
The Mingjiao soldier kneeling on the ground hurriedly said: "Madam, thank you for your reward."
Zhao Linger laughed a few times, then she turned around and looked at Zhou Zhiruo.
"Good sister, don't you want to express your gratitude?"
Zhou Zhiruo frowned and thought to herself, "I knew it would be like this. I knew she would not miss any opportunity to make fun of me."
Unfortunately, Zhou Zhiruo had no money on her and only carried a long sword.
She really didn't have anything worth showing off, but she didn't want to lose face as the leader's wife.
Finally, Zhou Zhiruo said, "Brother, I don't have any money on me. If you want something, you can tell me first and I'll owe you the money. How about that?"
The Mingjiao soldier kneeling on the ground was almost frightened to death by these words.
He quickly said, "Madam, you are joking. Your speaking to me is the greatest reward you can give me. I will take my leave now."
Looking at his fleeing back, Zhao Linger burst into laughter again. She said to Zhou Zhiruo, "My dear sister, look, you almost scared this guy to death."
Zhou Zhiruo rolled her eyes at Zhao Linger and said, "I knew you had bad intentions. You just wanted to embarrass me on purpose. Why do you always go against me? Sooner or later, I will make you lose face in front of these soldiers."
Zhao Linger was very happy today. Just when she wanted to joke with Zhou Zhiruo again, she suddenly saw something unusual out of the corner of her eye.
A steel knife stabbed at Zhang Wuji from behind.
Zhao Linger didn't have time to think about it. She subconsciously kicked to the side and back based on her feeling.
With a muffled groan, a figure flew backwards.
In the blink of an eye, Zhou Zhiruo stabbed the man's chest with the long sword in her hand.
Zhou Zhiruo could tolerate anything, but she absolutely could not tolerate anyone who dared to assassinate Zhang Wuji.
Even if the person who assassinated Zhang Wuji was a woman, she must be killed without mercy.
However, just when Zhou Zhiruo was about to take her life, Zhang Wuji shouted loudly: "Zhiruo, forget it."
Zhou Zhiruo turned around and glared at Zhang Wuji: "Forget it, she wanted to assassinate you just now."
Zhang Wuji said, "Zhiruo, don't you remember this girl?"
Zhou Zhiruo was puzzled for a moment. She looked back at the girl on the ground. She seemed familiar, but for a moment, she couldn't remember where she had seen her.
Zhao Linger quickly reminded: "Two hours ago, this girl was outside the city, begging you to withdraw your troops."
Zhou Zhiruo suddenly realized: "Oh, I remember now. If that's the case, I must kill you."
Just when Zhou Zhiruo wanted to kill again, Zhang Wuji grabbed her hand and said, "Zhiruo, let's just forget it."
Zhou Zhiruo glared at Zhang Wuji with eyes that were almost about to spit out anger. This was the first time in such a long time that Zhou Zhiruo was really angry.
Even between her and Zhao Linger, she had never really been angry with her, but this time, it was different.
Just as Zhou Zhiruo and Zhang Wuji were looking at each other, the surrounding Ming Cult soldiers also gathered over. They hurriedly said, "Master, we deserve to die. We never thought that this little bitch would have the courage to assassinate you. We will kill her now."
Zhang Wuji waved his hand and said, "Forget it, give her a chance."
The girl on the ground wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth.
She said to Zhang Wuji: "You men are all the same, none of you are a good thing. You appear to be righteous and moral on the surface, but in fact, you are all people who will do anything for the sake of profit. Although you didn't kill my parents with your own hands, they died because of you. I have no relatives in this world anymore, and you don't have to pretend to be like this anymore. If you have the ability, just kill me with one sword."
Zhang Wuji sneered and said to the girl, "Girl, the second half of your sentence is right. I will do anything for my own benefit. I want to be the emperor. Everyone in the Ming Cult knows this. I have never lied to anyone on this point."
"As for what you said about me being benevolent and moral on the surface, it seems that you are wrong. To be fair, I think my character is still well-known. Among my soldiers, those who have made contributions are rewarded, and those who have made mistakes are punished. I treat the people quite well too. I have never harmed them in the slightest."
"I think I am a relatively qualified commander."
Finally, Zhang Wuji turned around and shouted to the soldiers behind him: "Tell me, is there anything wrong with what I said?"
Hundreds of Ming Cult soldiers surrounding Zhang Wuji shouted loudly: "That's right, whatever the leader says is right."
After Zhang Wuji laughed a few times, he said to the girl: "You have seen it, the soldiers around me are very supportive of me. The doctrine of my Ming Cult is not to kill women, children, the elderly and the young. Today I killed all the Mongols in the city, so I should have cracked it."
"So today, I don't want to kill anyone anymore. I hope you will take care of yourself."
As soon as Zhang Wuji finished speaking, Zhou Zhiruo quickly said, "No, she wants to kill you. Such a person cannot be kept."
As she spoke, Zhou Zhiruo hardened her heart. Risking creating a rift between her and Zhang Wuji, she suddenly swung a sword at the girl.
But at this moment, Zhou Zhiruo suddenly felt that her body seemed to float up uncontrollably.
Zhou Zhiruo was startled at first, but then she found that it was Zhang Wuji who picked her up.
