Han Ling frowned and pondered. A few days ago, Ji Wuye's confidant, Jade Tiger, had just gone to see Lord Anping. Now, Lord Anping was coincidentally going to deliver the military pay. This was too much of a coincidence. He turned to Tang Qi and guessed," Could it be that ugly Ji Wuye wants to fill his own pocket and embezzle the military pay?”
Tang Qi slowly shook his head." But why would he be corrupt?”
These words sounded a bit ridiculous, like asking a wolf why it wanted to eat meat. However, Tang Qi was once a soldier and an elite of the Han Kingdom's Imperial Army. He had also been an adjutant who escorted military pay, so he knew the process very well.
Seeing the confusion in Han Ling's eyes, Old Man Tang Qi hurriedly explained," Young Master, you may not know this, but corruption of military pay was a major drawback in ancient times. Even if a serious crime was imposed, it could not be stopped. Therefore, before they were escorted, the trusted Imperial Army under the control of the King of Han had to make a rough inventory before they could leave the city. If there was a big difference, they would be able to detect it with a glance. However, if they only asked Lord Anping, who was the king's relative, to arrange for some people to corrupt a few hundred or a few thousand gold, not to mention whether it was enough to divide the spoils, To Ji Wuye, it's just a drop in the bucket. There's no need to take this risk and ask for trouble."
Han Ling suddenly understood." In that case, it's indeed strange."
Old man Tang Qi stood silently at the side, watching Han Ling pacing around the room.
In the end, Han Ling decided to wait until the next day when he was escorting the military pay to see for himself what Ji Wuye was up to. If he really planned to use some strange method to corrupt the military pay, then he might as well keep the fertile water to himself. The things in the Han country's treasury should go into the pockets of the Han country's Tenth Young Master.
At that time, Ji Wuye would be the mantis stalking the cicada and take the blame, while the Tenth Young Master would be the oriole behind and take the benefits. Wouldn't that be beautiful?

After leaving the secret courtyard of the Seven Wonders Clan, Han Ling's hand flashed and he put the package containing the Night Pearl and Agate into his backpack. The virtual grid in front of him showed the labels of Night Pearl X2, Pearl X1, Agate X5, and so on.
Suppressing his excitement, Han Ling displayed his Lightness Skill. As his clothes fluttered, he casually walked past several streets, the tall buildings of the taverns on both sides, and the doors of the gambling dens.
The moonlight hung high in the sky, shining on the stone pavement. It was a little cold, and even the surroundings became very quiet. After all, there was only one place in the entire Xinzheng that was brightly lit like the Purple Orchid Pavilion.
Han Ling suddenly frowned. The sound of hooves stepping on stone slabs could be heard from afar. There were more than fifty of them.
He leaped into the air and landed on the edge of the tooth building of a large manor.
Below them, a group of people wearing black helmets and red clothes quickly ran past. That was the common attire of the Han army, but this group of people wore falcon masks. The only thing that was revealed was their extremely sharp and cold eyes. They would occasionally pay attention to their surroundings and almost discover Ye Xiu's figure. They had a valiant killing aura. These were definitely not ordinary soldiers, but the elites of the elites!
Where would such a group of people go so late at night? Han Ling looked at this scene in puzzlement. He watched as the troops left like the wind and quietly followed.
Soon, Han Ling followed the army to a barren mountain range. This was the outskirts of Xinzheng.
The mountain in front of them was a thousand feet tall, and the soldiers quickly scattered into the forest after arriving. The entire process was done with hand gestures and no words. Even the horses moved with their heads in their mouths. They were well trained.
Han Ling frowned. He had just used appraisal to obtain information about these fierce soldiers, and it turned out that they were Ji Wuye's " Night " people!
All of them were called Falcons, and they were one of the hundred birds. They were the most terrifying group in the night, and their combat ability was comparable to a thousand-man team of a heavy armor army.
Why did Ji Wuye send these people here so late at night? Han Ling thought about it and followed them again. By the time they reached the cliff, these people had already disappeared. Even the horses were gone. He could only vaguely smell the smell of blood drifting in the air along with the mountain wind.
" Kill the horses for food ", Han Ling thought to himself. He narrowed his eyes and hesitated whether he should go up and take a look. Suddenly, his ears twitched and he heard a slight sound of someone flying behind him. Someone else was coming!
Han Ling immediately turned around and hid behind a tree. He saw a black figure flying toward him with a young man with white feathers on his shoulders. The two of them used the tip of a tree not far away to fly over the cliff in an instant. They disappeared from the cliff as if there was some strange mechanism.
It was Mo Ya. Han Ling was even more puzzled. However, the situation above was still unclear. It was not a wise decision to go up rashly. He secretly memorized the location of this mountain and retreated down the mountain.
Han Ling did not expect to make such an unexpected discovery. He chuckled and returned to his residence in the Han King Palace. Just as he jumped into the room through the window, he saw the twins waiting quietly by the table as usual.
Recalling that Ji Wuye's subordinates were all quite strong, Han Ling suddenly thought that although the Mysterious Demon Dice said that the secret manual could only be used by him, why didn't he teach Gemini some martial arts that could be used quickly in the trading system?
