"They come to the brothel not just to see the beautiful women."
Huo Shuwen said
"If Wei Ci really has ties with the Xiongnu, then he's here to see if I'm dead or not."
Cen Ang nodded, signaling him to continue.
"I lost too much blood that day, so finding the Huo family wouldn't be difficult. Therefore, Wei Ci is definitely after me."
"What should we do then?"
The little dumpling asked
Today, Huo Xiaolong wore two pigtails sticking straight up. He was disassembling a tank on the table while listening to the adults talk.
Such underhanded and overt schemes don't suit her.
She won't
But she can learn
"Wei Ci wants to see if you're dead or not, so let's force him to do something desperate," said Mother Cen.
"What does my sister mean?"
"Let your brother-in-law practice his martial arts and do his work as usual these next few days. Wei Ci knows he's not dead, and he'll send someone over soon."
He Yi nodded in understanding.
He took out a pile of plum blossom ointment from the cabinet and said...
"Sister, take these back and distribute them to the girls."
Mother Cen looked puzzled, picked up a bottle, opened it, and took a look.
There were about a hundred small bottles, all filled with elixirs.
"Things are getting tense lately. If some bad guys come, at least I can hold out for a while if I get hurt."
"Then I'll accept it."
Cen Ang patted He Yi's hand, wrapped up the plum blossom ointment, and returned to the brothel.
"Cuifang, go back and tell the magistrate's wife that next time someone sends a letter to Wei Ci, have all the constables keep an eye on the person's route out of the city. Once he leaves the county, you follow him, but be careful."
"Oh, okay."
The Miao boy received the order and hurriedly went out the door.
Another ordinary day of making money
Miao Cuifang thought
He thought the Central Plains was a land of swords and chivalry, a place of swift justice and revenge.
Now, he's taking on apprentices, passing on his skills, and indulging in lavish meals every day.
The apprentice was a bit timid.
But naturally intelligent
Much smarter than my junior brothers and sisters from Miao territory.
Young Master Miao, who was eating golden thread cakes on the tree above the county government office, sighed today.
"I am now certain that the assassins who killed General Xiao were definitely that group of Xiongnu from the deep mountains," Magistrate Wang said.
"Why are you so sure?"
"I'm not only certain of this, I'm also certain that Wei Ci, that bastard, is a traitor."
Madam Hua gently massaged his temples and said softly.
"What's wrong, Zheng-ge?"
Magistrate Wang sighed deeply and said...
"You have no idea, that lecherous man insisted that I arrange for him to go to a brothel today. I told him it wasn't open. That's how brothels are; if there's nothing to do, they just rest for a few days. Madam, do you know what he said to me?"
"What?"
Madam Hua asked
He said, "Then can you help me arrange it?"
"You really have to go?"
"Yes! And he also said that it was the top courtesan at Fanghua Tower who seduced her."
Madam Hua sat down next to Magistrate Wang, gesturing for him to continue.
"They say the girls at the brothel are as beautiful as angels, so he has to go and see for himself. If I don't arrange it for him, I'll be on Lord Wei's report!"
"Arrogant!"
"That's for sure, he's stupid and dumb, he's nothing."
Listening to the sounds inside the room
Miao Cuifang's mouth moved even faster.
It's really interesting how this couple curses at each other.
singing in harmony
No wonder they got along so well.
"Tell the people over there to send a few skilled men to stake out the entrance of the brothel, and keep a close watch on their every move! Especially the Huo family."
Wei Ci instructed
"yes!"
Oh dear, you idiot!
I finally remembered to go to the brothel.
Miao boys are like badger in a melon field
The ears are busy having a great time.
It wasn't that Wei Ci was stupid. Huo Shuwen had been stabbed, and the blood flowed from the mountain to the county town. He also had so many poisoned arrows in his body. His death was inevitable.
However, Wei Ci waited for three days, but not a single household in the red-light district hung white banners or set up a mourning hall.
Only then did he send someone to check.
Moreover, Wei Ci believed that General Xiao was also doomed.
There is no cure for the poison of the Xiongnu's strange stones.
look
Didn't all those who looked down on him and those who broke his legs die one by one?
None of you will outlive me, and you are all destined to be my stepping stones!
Wei Ci recalled that year in the capital.
His cousin was the Empress! His father was the Minister of Rites!
He was accused of abducting women, but those women actually adored him.
They want to soar to great heights; they want to climb the social ladder.
Otherwise, why would those vile women dress up like that and pass by his carriage?
Wei Ci was fulfilling their wishes, just because of a few lowly women, just because of a few common women.
They broke his leg.
Wei Ci looked at his missing leg.
I laughed out loud
They won't let me become an official.
I'll do it anyway.
I not only want to do
I still want to be the biggest
Your Majesty, who told you not to uphold justice for me back then?
You won't help me
I can only help myself.
Wei Ci finished reading the letter in his hand
He opened the water bottle at his waist, found the hidden clasp, and the water bottle immediately split in two. He then put the letter inside.
He had to keep this; otherwise, how could he report back to the emperor? The evidence of Pingyang County Magistrate Wang Zheng's collusion with the border commander was all here.
Before it got dark, the Xiongnu messenger arrived again.
"Lord Wei, the man who ventured into the mountains that day is not dead."
"Not dead?"
Yes, he's not dead.
"Impossible! I've seen the power of poison and weapons! How could he not be dead!"
"Not only did he not die, he's still helping his family by fetching water and cooking."
The Hun, disguised as a vegetable farmer, said
Upon hearing this, Wei Ci slumped into his chair.
Don't worry, I'll handle it.
"We hope that this time you can help us clean our tails."
