Chapter 196 Cold-Blooded Young Marshal 10
As if imagining that she would become his wife, she would gently tidy his clothes every day and wait obediently for him to come home.
He will pamper her and cherish her dearly. She won't need to do anything. She's so beautiful, he'll give her the best clothes and jewelry. He'll find a way to give her whatever she wants. All she needs to do is stay by his side.
"Alright, young marshal."
The soft voice woke him from his beautiful fantasy. He saw her pull away from him without hesitation, as if he had experienced this scene many times before.
A wave of sadness washed over him; he couldn't understand why he was experiencing such strong negative emotions.
He suppressed his emotions, glanced at her, and said, "Remember what you just promised me."
After saying that, he pushed open the door and strode away, and the soldiers waiting outside also quickly left.
Seeing him leave so suddenly, Xu Qiuqiu was a little confused. Why was it different from the novel 003 read to her?
Shouldn't it be that the more she resists, the more he wants to get closer to her, and the more she tries to escape, the more he wants to get her as quickly as possible?
But the thought of going to his room late at night felt like stealing someone's man.
Not long after Ling Jiazhen left, Yun Zhizhi appeared, carrying a handbag and looking apologetic. She tugged at Yun Zhizhi's hand and asked, "Yiqiu, have you been waiting long?"
Seeing her somewhat anxious and worried look, Xu Qiuqiu said understandingly, "It hasn't been long."
"That's good. Where else would you like to go, Yiqiu? I'll take you there."
Xu Qiuqiu declined, saying, "Sister Zhizhi, I'm a little tired. Let's go shopping another time."
She didn't sleep well last night because she was having trouble sleeping in her new bed and was also thinking about how to bump into Ah-Zhen.
"Okay." Yun Zhizhi didn't insist, let go of her hand, and went to the front desk to pay the balance for the clothes.
She also reminded the shop owner, "I'll pay the deposit for my sister's clothes together."
The boss lowered his voice and said, "How could I dare to accept Miss An's money? Miss Yun doesn't need to pay the balance either. The young marshal said he was very satisfied with your information. From now on, Miss Yun's expenses for the year will be recorded under the young marshal's account."
Yun Zhizhi giggled, put the money back in her handbag, and said in a low voice, "Young Marshal, you are so generous."
She took out a small check and handed it to the boss, saying, "But Lao Xu, you should at least give me one as a token, otherwise my sister will get suspicious."
“Miss Yun is very thoughtful.” Xu Hui’s voice rose a little after he took the check. “Madam, please remember to pick up your clothes in five days.”
"Okay, I wish you booming business, boss," Yun Zhizhi replied quickly.
Xu Qiuqiu couldn't hear what they were whispering. In her eyes, they were just exchanging money and a few polite words.
A gentle breeze stirred the leaves, and on the white-tiled ground stood a magnificent mansion, a blend of Chinese and Western styles. A black Chevrolet drove in and stopped in front of the mansion. Servants at the door quickly ran over and opened the car door, and Ling Jiazhen stepped out.
He entered the mansion, where the people inside respectfully addressed him as Young Marshal. He nodded in acknowledgment, then went into the information room to review the intelligence information gathered by his subordinates.
Not long after, Tan Wei knocked on the door.
"Come in." Ling Jiazhen didn't look up, continuing to look at the intelligence in her hand.
"Young Master, this is Jiang Lifeng's troop deployment and the remaining shops." Tan Wei placed the information on the table.
Ling Jiazhen picked it up and flipped through it, then said, "There's some intelligence. Jiang Lifeng spent a lot of money to buy a batch of goods that are on their way. We're going to spread a message that a group of tomb raiders in Lucheng have unearthed the treasure of a former emperor."
Once the news spread, we immediately sent people to intercept Jiang Lifeng's goods, causing him to lose this batch of goods. This way, he would have to spend money to cover the loss.
"Give him a period of financial hardship, and he'll definitely panic. At that time, he'll think of the rumored treasure. Since the rumor leaked before the goods were lost, he'll lower his guard and, in his desperation, might personally go out to steal it. As long as he leads his troops out, we can set a trap halfway and deal with him."
"Yes." Tan Wei received the message and went to set about sending people to do it.
Looking at the intelligence in his hand, Ling Jiazhen knew that Jiang Lifeng would never guess that his most beloved woman, Yun Zhizhi, was the daughter of his father's adjutant.
Jiang Lifeng not only killed his father, but also his father's trusted adjutant. Therefore, Yun Zhizhi was happy to be the spy, because she also wished Jiang Lifeng dead.
As night fell, Jiang Lifeng returned to the Marshal's Mansion from outside, and his concubines immediately came forward to inquire about his well-being.
Jiang Lifeng glanced at the women surrounding him and asked unhappily, "Where is Ninth Concubine?"
"Oh, Master, it's been so long since you've come to my room. Didn't you just favor Ninth Concubine yesterday? Come to my room tonight! I miss you so much, my heart aches!" Yun Zhizhi said coquettishly, her eyes filled with allure, as she hooked her soft, boneless hand around his arm.
Looking at the delicate Yun Zhizhi, Jiang Lifeng put his arm around her waist and said, "You really can't be without me for even a day?"
"Oh, please don't tease me, Master." Yun Zhizhi giggled and leaned into his arms.
Thinking that An Yiqiu had started her period, Jiang Lifeng thought it would be fine to go to her room in a few days. Otherwise, he could only look at the beauty but not play with her, which was not as good as the little woman he could play with and who suited his taste.
After watching Jiang Lifeng and the Eighth Concubine leave, the Seventh and Sixth Concubines could only curse the bitch in their hearts.
He turned and ran to the First Madam and said, "First Madam, do you think Eighth Sister is going a bit too far? How can she keep monopolizing Master like this?"
The first wife leaned back on the sofa, already tired of hearing the two of them talk every day. What was the point of complaining to her? Could she possibly control a man's mind?
Moreover, the Eighth Concubine was someone she sent to win over the Master, and at least for now the Eighth Concubine is very obedient, so she has no need to suppress her.
"Are you finished? If you are, then leave. I need to rest." The First Madam gave him the order to leave without hesitation.
The sixth and seventh concubines knew it was useless, so they had no choice but to leave in a sorry state.
The bright moon hangs in the sky, radiating a soft light.
Xu Qiuqiu cautiously walked out of the room and overheard two maids gossiping around the corner.
"The new ninth concubine looks pretty but is useless. The warlord hasn't come to her room for two nights in a row."
"That's right, the commander-in-chief went to the eighth concubine's room again tonight. In my opinion, the eighth concubine's position is the most secure and she is the most favored."
"Sigh, what bad luck! We were assigned to take care of Ninth Concubine. I guess we won't get any extra benefits from now on."
"Yes, yes, Ninth Concubine is so useless, she doesn't even know to go to the front hall to wait for the Marshal."
"..."
The two complained incessantly, but Xu Qiuqiu didn't want to listen anymore after a while. Sure enough, whether in ancient or modern times, servants are always opportunistic.
She didn't want to be the ninth concubine, serving an old man.
She turned off the room lights, making the maid think she was asleep. After the maid left, she secretly went downstairs and left.
