Chapter 277 Sneak In
Xiao Yuan wasn't completely passive, but he certainly wasn't very active either.
In fact, he had dealt with Yu Sheng before and had a good impression of him.
If the other party does not rebel, killing him will do more harm than good, both in terms of stabilizing the situation in Bashu and in terms of talent.
Another thing is that killing Yu Sheng is too risky.
That man had been doing business in Bashu for many years and had many extraordinary people around him, and he was deeply loved.
It was not easy for these people to escape successfully after killing Yu Sheng. It was even more difficult than killing Yu Sheng.
If it were in the past, he would naturally not be afraid. Not to mention this kind of job where he had a 50% chance of success, he had done a lot of jobs where he had a 30% chance of success.
But now that he has a wife, he naturally has more concerns.
Moreover, when Jin Zekang asked his wife to come over, he also said that Yu Sheng must be watched by someone so that he could be killed once and for all if necessary.
If it is not necessary, then there is no need to do it once and for all.
And if the opponent really doesn't move, it's better not to kill him.
Jiang Xinyu nodded after listening to Xiao Yuan's analysis of Yu Sheng's importance to the Bashu region.
"I understand. Yu Sheng has great prestige in the Bashu region. We cannot just kill him simply because he might rebel.
Tsk tsk, it's really inappropriate for you, the supervisor of the East Factory, to say such things."
Xiao Yuan pinched her cheek with amusement and said, "What's so incongruous about this? Different positions naturally require different working styles.
When the old emperor was alive, I was a knife in his hand. No matter whether they were loyal or treacherous, I would uproot them when necessary.
Fanglan had to be removed in court.
It doesn't matter whether the person is good or bad; the position he occupies is the basis of his value.
Now I no longer need to be controlled by others, and I can naturally decide the extent to which I want to accomplish something based on my own considerations.”
Jiang Xinyu poked his chest and smiled charmingly.
“Is this an alternative version of the saying ‘poor people make evil plans but rich people become more conscientious’?”
Xiao Yuan grabbed her restless hand and kissed it, then carried her to the bed and whispered softly in her ear.
"When I didn't have my wife, I didn't know that reveling every night could be so intoxicating.
Stop thinking about that guy and do something fun."
As they had been rushing for days and staying in the inn, the two of them hadn't been intimate for several days. When Xiao Yuan got angry, Jiang Xinyu forgot about other things.
Apart from responding, the only thing on my mind was to look back and see if there was any store selling ethnic minority clothing.
She wanted to buy a few pieces for Xiao Yuan to wear, thinking it would definitely make him look sexier.
It's much hotter here in Bashu than in Beijing.
The Miao girls walking on the street all had their calves exposed, and the Yi men all wore ethnic costumes that exposed their arms.
The colorful and exaggerated honey wax jewelry and large earrings are full of exotic style.
As soon as she saw it today, she thought Xiao Yuan would look great in it.
It turns out that there are two different kinds of people sleeping in the same quilt.
While Jiang Xinyu was thinking this, Xiao Yuan had already taken out two anklets from under the pillow.
It is the silver ring with a small bell that Miao girls like to wear on their ankles.
While doing that, Xiao Yuan put the shoes on Jiang Xinyu's feet.
It’s not that he didn’t want to buy clothes from the Miao girls, but those clothes were sewed by them themselves and they were not sold to other people.
Xiao Yuan disguised himself and went out for a long time but only bought a pair of silver footbells.
This time, the bells on his ankles jingled along with Xiao Yuan's movements, and the frequency of his movements could be determined from the speed of the sound.
Jiang Xinyu was rarely shy. She turned over, pressed Xiao Yuan down, and lay on top of him, breathing heavily.
"There are people outside. You are using this thing to count them!"
Xiao Yuanbei smiled and pressed his wife down again.
"Is it too late to be shy now?
My dear lady, just obey me. I want to hear it. "
Jiang Xinyu couldn't stand his pitiful and coquettish behavior, and she softened her heart for a moment, so the bell rang for half the night.
Not surprisingly, Jiang Xinyu stayed in bed again the next day and didn't get up until noon.
Xiaodie naturally didn't go out since the lady didn't get up, but Xiao Yuan went out early.
Jiang Xinyu pounded the bed in frustration, "He is quite energetic."
Jiang Xinyu felt so ashamed that her face turned red when she thought of the tinkling sound of the bells.
She now reasonably suspected that Xiao Yuan was just showing off on purpose.
After sleeping for an extra morning, Jiang Xinyu had recovered. After lunch, she put on some ugly makeup on her face, put on her unwashed travel clothes, and went out again.
Yesterday she heard that the General's Mansion was selecting female guards for their young lady to compete in martial arts, and she wanted to try her luck.
Only by knowing both yourself and the enemy can you fight a hundred battles with no danger of defeat.
It would be safest to find out what is going on with Yu Sheng from the inside.
Since the general is so cautious and guarded tightly, we should start with the family members in the backyard.
It will also give us a clearer picture of what the second branch of the Yu family thinks of the imperial court.
Xiaodie thought that her mistress had already told the governor about it last night, so she packed up and followed Jiang Xinyu to the registration place.
This time they brought with them multiple disguised identity documents, and now they are using the identities of sisters from a small escort agency.
The elder sister Miao Cuihua is eighteen and the younger sister Miao Cuicie is sixteen. Their father is a bodyguard in a small escort agency in the capital.
The sisters learned martial arts since childhood and originally wanted to be bodyguards for the ladies of wealthy families.
Unexpectedly, my father died accidentally while delivering a dart.
The boss of the escort agency was a good-for-nothing and insisted that their father had promised them and their sisters to his stupid son.
The two pretended to agree and sneaked out.
I had heard before that in the Bashu region, gender segregation was not so strict and women were allowed to be seen in public, so I kept going there.
Now that I have spent almost all my money, I need to find a job urgently.
What they said matched the documents, and their dusty clothes and shoes that couldn't be seen were also quite convincing.
The nanny in charge of recruiting people asked the two of them to lift up the stone lock to demonstrate her skills.
The two of them naturally held back on their strength, but lifting a 50-jin stone chain with one hand was enough to satisfy the nanny.
The other girls who were selected have also practiced before, and the best they could do was lift 40 kilograms with one hand.
The game was quite fancy and good looking. Today, out of more than 40 people who signed up, only eight were left.
These eight are real martial artists; the others are just strong or just try their luck with a few fancy moves.
After all, for people here, being able to work in the General's Mansion is a step up, so everyone wants to try it if there is a chance.
This is only the case in Bashu. It is difficult to find a few girls who can perform fancy moves in other places.
Of course, the border doesn't count.
If it weren't for the frequent conflicts among the multi-ethnic groups in Bashu, no one would force their girls to practice martial arts.
Whether it is a woman from the south of the Yangtze River learning embroidery or a girl from the frontier learning hunting, it is all necessary for survival.
The treatment in the General's Mansion was good. As soon as they were selected, the maids gave them new clothes and shoes and let them take a bath and change clothes.
This is only the first round. Even though you can't see the girl, you can't be so dirty.
After you clean up, someone will check it to at least make sure there are no lice or fleas on it.
Jiang Xinyu's words of gratitude to the nanny really came from the bottom of her heart, and that sincerity made the old nanny who was taking care of them extremely satisfied.
She was not pretending, she was truly grateful, grateful to the nanny for giving her the opportunity to take a bath.
In order to look like refugees, she smeared a lot of soybean oil on herself and Xiaodie's head and sprinkled some dust on them.
If she were allowed to sleep like this tonight, she would scratch her scalp into tassels.
It is true that it is easy to go from frugality to luxury but difficult to go from luxury to frugality. I think she couldn't take a bath every day in the last days.
But now if he let her dirty him, he wouldn't be able to sleep at all.
No matter what, at least I've managed to get in and I can sleep well tonight.
She had a good sleep. Xiao Yuan was so angry after reading the note she left that he didn't get drunk the whole night.
There is no organization and no discipline. If his subordinates were to take up their posts, they would have to be fired!
