Chapter 181 Ying Chengjiao: I am a man of my words!
The Vietnamese girl's expression did not change, her eyes still contained hatred mixed with a little contempt.
The girl from Yue was very skilled in martial arts and usually protected Zhao Ji closely.
She knew very well that Lu'er was definitely not killed by Zhao Ji, as Zhao Ji had never issued such an order.
"You don't have to tell me so much."
The Yue girl didn't want to continue to be entangled with Ying Chengjiao. She was still confused until now and didn't know what Ying Chengjiao was up to.
Lu'er's words were somewhat radical, and this guy would rather expose his hidden chess piece than kill Lu'er.
I almost assassinated him. Why does he have such an attitude? He must have a bigger plan.
"No, I need it. I really need it. If I don't tell you the truth and let this matter become a knot in your heart, it's not what I want."
Ying Chengjiao's tone was so sincere that one could tell it was from his heart.
But the Vietnamese girl remained unmoved and watched coldly, as if she was watching a drama performance.
Ying Chengjiao had known that this would be the case, and without feeling frustrated, he continued talking.
"If it was me, I would send someone to kill the maid in the middle of the night instead of launching a suicide attack. You must know Teng, and you should have heard him say that. I have a basic principle that all lives are equal, and I will never issue a death order."
The Yue girl blinked her cold eyes, as if she was thinking about whether what Ying Chengjiao said was true.
Searching your memory isn't that difficult.
Soon, her red lips opened and closed, her voice was clear, but there was a hint of looseness in her tone.
“People change.”
Does this mean that I may have become cold-blooded and heartless over the years?
Woman, you are questioning the beliefs of a great proletarian man.
"If you stay with me, you will naturally know whether I have changed or not."
The Yue girl's eyes, which were already cold, became even colder in an instant.
Seeing these eyes, one can’t help but think of the coldest days of winter.
"Don't be angry, there's no need." Ying Chengjiao tried to calm the girl down and said, "Why do ? Tell me. What she can give you, I can give you, double."
The Yue girl was speechless.
She usually kept silent in front of Ying Chengjiao.
But her silence is actually an attitude.
Quite stubborn.
Ying Chengjiao rubbed his temples, thinking about the legend of the Yue Girl Sword that Gai Nie had told him, and guessed bit by bit: "You are so skilled in martial arts, there is no possibility of forceful coercion. The successors of the Yue Girl Sword in previous generations were all orphans, and there is no possibility of threatening your relatives."
"Your martial arts ability has reached this level, which shows that you are devoted to the sword. I have seen two people as powerful as you."
"People like you don't care about fame, fortune, and other mundane things, otherwise your martial arts wouldn't have reached this level."
"The Sword of Yue Girls is a sword that protects the women of Yue. Therefore, the sword that can move you must be related to Baiyue. Zhao Xianglu will not threaten you with building a tower and taking all the women of Baiyue as his concubines like I did, right?"
The Yue girl stood in the hall, her face showing more anger than before, and she scolded Ying Chengjiao angrily.
"The Queen Mother is not as dirty as you!"
"What conditions did Zhao Xianglu promise you?"
The Yue girl was speechless again.
Ying Chengjiao waited for a while, and seeing that the Yue girl had no intention of speaking, he chuckled and waved his hand.
"If you don't want to talk about it, forget it. Just go away."
The Vietnamese girl was stunned, looking incredulous.
Although Ying Chengjiao took advantage of her a little along the way, she did not suffer any substantial harm.
Compared with her assassination of Ying Chengjiao, the damage she suffered was nothing.
"You're not leaving? Are you in love with me? Well, my bed is big, so go make love with me."
Ying Chengjiao stood up from his seat and grabbed the Yue girl's slender jade fingers.
The Yue girl looked at Ying Chengjiao deeply, then took a few steps back to the yard. Her black nightgown blended into the pitch-black night and was inconspicuous. She disappeared from Ying Chengjiao's eyes in the next second.
Ying Chengjiao walked slowly out of the hall and looked around.
Except for an old tree with a tall trunk, crooked branches and dense leaves.
The front yard was empty.
The ground is made of sand that has been compacted countless times, and in the middle of the sand is a road paved with bluestone bricks.
Ying Chengjiao leaped onto the ancient tree and stood on a thicker branch, holding the branch in his hand, with green leaves in front and behind him.
He jumped and moved on the old tree and checked several times, but did not find the Yue girl.
Jump down from the old tree.
He saw Jing Ke, who had appeared out of nowhere, standing in front of the hall waiting for him.
“Your Majesty…”
Jing Ke had just said two words when he was interrupted by Ying Chengjiao.
"Bring me a carrier pigeon, and some writing brush, ink, paper, and inkstone."
Jing Ke's lips moved, and it seemed that he still wanted to finish what he had not said.
Ying Chengjiao showed impatience on his face, and said in a deep voice, emphasizing: "I said to bring me a carrier pigeon, and writing brush, ink, paper and inkstone."
Jing Ke opened and closed his mouth twice, lowered his head, and clasped his hands.
"only."
Ying Chengjiao walked back into the hall, leaned on the main seat covered with two layers of tiger skin, and waited quietly.
Less than half a cup of tea later, Jing Ke came back and placed the carrier pigeon, writing brush, ink, paper and inkstone that Ying Chengjiao wanted on the desk in front of Ying Chengjiao.
Ying Chengjiao spread out the paper, picked up the pen, bent over the desk and started writing. He finished in a short while.
When he turned around, he found Jing Ke right behind him and frowned.
"Why don't you leave?"
“Your Majesty…”
Jing Ke's third attempt to finish his words failed again.
"You should go now."
Ying Chengjiao said seriously.
"……only."
Jing Ke was almost driven away by Ying Chengjiao's eyes.
When Jing Ke disappeared, Ying Chengjiao carefully rolled up the paper, tied it to the legs of a carrier pigeon, and released it.
The carrier pigeon circled above the ceiling of the hall and flew out through the door.
Ying Chengjiao yawned, raised his hands, stretched his waist, and stretched lazily.
One, two, three, four…
Ying Chengjiao, who was feeling sleepy, counted silently in his heart. When he counted to fifteen, a clear and angry voice sounded in the hall.
"You wanted me to leave!"
The Yue girl came back and stood in front of Ying Chengjiao. The voice came from her.
Her face turned pale with anger, her eyes were blazing with rage, and she was gnashing her teeth as if she wanted to eat Ying Chengjiao alive.
Ying Chengjiao raised his hands with an innocent look on his face.
"Yes, I asked you to leave. Why did you come back? Did someone stop you?"
The Vietnamese girl was shaking with anger.
Her hand trembled, revealing a piece of letter paper, which was the one that Ying Chengjiao had just written.
"Since you let me go, why did you write this letter?"
The Yue girl's eyes were filled with grief and indignation as she looked at the words written in large seal script on the letter paper.
"When the letter arrives, immediately build a five-story tower in the land of Baiyue and capture Baiyue women immediately. Send all Baiyue women to the tower as slave concubines. If you don't receive ten women a day, send them to the military camp as military prostitutes. You are untrustworthy, Ying Chengjiao, are you still a human being?"
Ying Chengjiao put down his arms, hugged his shoulders and looked at the angry Yue girl with a smile on his face.
"I broke my promise? I said I would let you go, but did I do it? Did anyone try to stop you from leaving?"
“…”
"I said before that next time, I will show you the largest building built in the Baiyue Kingdom, with all the Baiyue people inside as slaves. Doesn't this prove that I am trustworthy?"
“…”
