Is Chapter 105 the 105th chapter...?
Is Chapter 105...?
Hong Qigong finally turned his gaze to Nangong Ling, even though Nangong Ling wished he would ignore her at this moment. "You should have died today." Then he looked at Ling Hao, "Take her away."
Thank you.
"I should be thanking you," Hong Qigong said with a smile.
Ling Hao stepped forward and grabbed Nangong Ling, just as they were about to leave, Hong Qigong spoke up, "Young master, may we have a talk?"
Huh? What do those two have to talk about? Ling Hao looked at them with a puzzled expression.
“Okay,” Gongzi Yu replied with a smile.
Although she found it a little strange, Linghao still pulled Nangong Ling outside, leaving them a place to talk. Her hearing was excellent, so she deliberately walked a little further away.
"I wonder what Chief Hong wants to say?" Gongzi Yu looked at Hong Qigong with a leisurely air. After Ling Hao left, his gentle demeanor changed completely, unlike before.
However, Hong Qigong became even more curious about the other party's identity, "Young master, are you a member of the royal family?"
"Is this what Chief Hong wanted to say?" Gongzi Yu raised his eyebrows slightly, his eyes cold.
"That's not it," Hong Qigong sighed. "I just wanted to ask, does His Majesty intend to take action against the Beggars' Sect?"
Gongzi Yu then looked at Hong Qigong with a serious expression. "Really? I don't know either."
"Do you want the Beggars' Sect to disappear, or do you want the Beggars' Sect disciples to disappear?" Hong Qigong asked again.
"Who knows?" Gongzi Yu still didn't give a direct answer.
Hong Qigong, however, already knew what was going on. He clasped his hands in a respectful bow to Gongzi Yu and said, "I hope you will consider this, young master..."
"The people of the Great Zhou Dynasty should act in accordance with the laws and regulations of the Great Zhou Dynasty," Gongzi Yu interrupted Hong Qigong.
Hong Qigong remained silent for a moment, then sighed, "Thank you for the reminder, young master."
Gongzi Yu said nothing more and turned to leave.
Hong Qigong watched Gongzi Yu's departing figure and gave a helpless bitter smile. He had indeed kidnapped Nangong Ling to clean house, but after learning that this young master was a member of the royal family, coupled with recent changes in the government offices, he had an idea. So he deliberately left marks on those people, allowing their masters to follow them, because he wanted to get to the bottom of things.
Although Hong Qigong had no evidence, he intuitively felt that if he went to the man's doorstep, he might not get a chance to talk, so he used this method. Sure enough, the man appeared, and then the conversation just now took place. Although he seemed to say nothing, Hong Qigong understood.
The current emperor is diligent and decisive, and she cannot possibly stand idly by while the Beggars' Sect's power expands. The Beggars' Sect is the largest sect in the land, and also a benevolent sect, but with so many members, problems are bound to arise. Hong Qigong knows that he can resolve these issues once or twice, but not every time, and the imperial court would not favor such a dangerous variable.
Hong Qigong had long suspected that the emperor might target the Beggars' Clan. He just hadn't expected that day to come so soon.
He sat alone in the dilapidated temple, watching the sun rise and the moon set, the moon set and the sun rose again. Finally, Hong Qigong stood up and left the temple. Enough, being a beggar wasn't a good thing anyway. If every beggar could live a peaceful and ordinary life, why be a beggar at all? Even the beggars of the Beggars' Sect are still beggars.
So what if the Beggars' Sect is gone? It means the world is getting better, and many people are able to live a good life. Besides, the Beggars' Sect isn't going away anytime soon, so there's really no need for him to be worried right now. Hong Qigong understood, his mind was free of worries, and he walked lightly in the sunlight.
With no worries in his mind, his martial arts skills improved to a higher level.
While Hong Qigong sat idly in the dilapidated temple, Ling Hao and Gongzi Yu had already handed Nangong Ling over to the Divine Marquis's Mansion. Now that Tianfeng Dalang and Nangong Ling were both in the Divine Marquis's Mansion's hands, the case could continue to be investigated.
However, Ling Hao didn't interfere. Firstly, she believed in specialization, and professional matters should be left to professionals; she wouldn't do something like an outsider instructing an expert. However, she would still reveal some past secrets, such as who the two individuals' biological mothers were. Secondly, she had new things to do.
Or to be more precise, it was Gongzi Yu who had specially ordered the capture of womanizers from various places for Linghao's sake. These men lined up in a row, and Linghao subconsciously counted them—there were twenty-eight of them. Twenty-eight in such a short time? Wasn't that a bit too many?
Ling Hao leaned close to Gongzi Yu's ear and whispered, "Was he arrested just because he heard about it? Could this have led to some wrongful conviction?"
“There is evidence for everything.” Gongzi Yu knew Ling Hao’s temperament; how could he possibly create a wrongful conviction? He wanted to please A-Hao, not for her to sever ties with him. Naturally, he wanted to handle everything properly.
"Testimony and physical evidence?"
"Testimony and physical evidence."
Ling Hao immediately drew her Blade of Snow and asked, "Have you already sent people from the Ministry of Justice over?"
"I've gone to inform them," Gongzi Yu replied.
Ling Hao said, "In other words, I have about the time it takes to drink two cups of tea. Very good, that's enough."
When the Ministry of Justice officials arrived at the detached residence, they saw more than twenty men who were beginning to take on human form. They fell silent instantly. If they weren't mistaken, these twenty-odd men seemed to have become...eunuchs?
Poetry stood before them with a sincere smile on her face and said, "These people are putting up a stubborn resistance. When we were fighting them, we accidentally made a mistake. But don't worry, their lives are safe because we have applied medicine to them."
An accident? A slip-up? How careless would it take to slip up like that? Twenty people were crippled; that's incredibly careless. Also, don't think they don't know who did it; they've received similar attacks before.
Of course, the people in the Ministry of Justice knew who did it. Wasn't it that kind of heroine, Ling Hao, who beat up Fang Yingkan every day? They knew all too well, because in addition to beating up Fang Yingkan every day, she would also send some people to their Ministry of Justice.
Among these people, those who were womanizers all lacked subordinates. They all thought they should be used to it by now, but this time there were more than twenty of them, and they were simply shocked. So, to say it was an accident, a slip-up, was something they genuinely couldn't believe even if they wanted to.
Shi Ci knew, of course, that the Ministry of Justice wouldn't believe her, but did it matter? No, it didn't. She had already given her reason; whether they believed her or not was their business. The person wasn't dead, the case could still be handled, couldn't it?
In the backyard, Linghao was washing her Snowflakes with clean water. As she washed, she muttered to herself, "I know I wronged you, Snowflakes, their blood really is very dirty. I was just too angry and couldn't help myself. Don't worry, I'll remember not to get you dirty next time. I'll take good care of you now, so don't be angry anymore, okay? Is it settled then? Great, I know you agree."
Gongzi Yu smiled helplessly, but he was still holding a cloth in his hands, which was for Sui Xue. No matter what they were doing, he would always stay by Ling Hao's side. He never felt bored, because as long as he was with her, he was never bored.
Today was just another ordinary day, at least for Linghao. Aside from practicing her sword, eating, tending to the animals, cleaning up Suixue, and feeding Yunduo, she did nothing else. Oh, no, actually, there were quite a few things to do in total.
Before going to sleep, Linghao felt like something was off. But she couldn't remember what it was, and she was so tired that she fell into a deep sleep.
The next morning, Ling Hao woke up at the same time as usual. After washing and changing, she took Sui Xue and went out to have breakfast with Gongzi Yu. But the moment she stepped out, her expression changed, because she felt the moisture in the steam.
In other words, it rained last night, so Ah Yu... Ling Hao hurried towards Gongzi Yu's room, and halfway there he saw a familiar figure coming towards him, "Ah..."
"Ah Hao!" The person skipped and jumped to Ling Hao's side. "Great! I've finally found you. I thought you were gone again."
Ling Hao's smile faded slightly. "Mingyue."
Gongzi Mingyue nodded with a smile, "Yes, yes, that's right, it's me. Ah Hao, let me tell you, my brother really went too far. He actually tied me up and locked me up again. I haven't seen you in so long." He was so angry at Gongzi Yu that he gritted his teeth at the thought of not seeing Ling Hao for so long.
This time, the brothers didn't run into each other again. Next time, he'll definitely give his brother a couple of punches and turn him into a black-eyed chicken. It's infuriating! Why does he always lock himself up whenever he shows up? He's got something wrong with him.
"Mingyue, are you hungry?" Linghao asked.
Gongzi Mingyue rubbed his stomach. "I am indeed a little hungry."
Linghao said, "Let's go get some breakfast."
"Okay, okay." Gongzi Mingyue's eyes were full of smiles. He was always happy as long as he was with Ahao. And now that she was caring about him, he was even happier.
Seeing Mingyue's happy expression, Linghao couldn't help but smile, but then she felt she had gone too far. When she saw that the person who appeared was Mingyue, she had felt a moment of disappointment. Although Ayu was the person she liked, Mingyue was also her friend. Had she gone too far?
Ling Hao couldn't quite explain her feelings. She was happy to see Mingyue again, but she was also a little disappointed that she wouldn't see Ayu today. Her emotions were in turmoil, so much so that tears welled up in her eyes.
"Ah Hao, did someone bully you?" Gongzi Mingyue was always very perceptive of Ling Hao's emotions. "Tell me who bullied you, and I'll go teach them a lesson."
No, kill him, and make him wish he were dead, just like Yang Xiao. No, he should be worse than Yang Xiao. Everyone who has been good or bad to A-hao deserves to die. Gongzi Mingyue's face showed worry and indignation, but her heart was filled with intense killing intent.
