Xiaoyan had been here for some time, and she had a preliminary understanding of this place. Dongli State was one of the largest countries on this mainland, and the prime minister of Dongli State was a legend. He was like a brother to the emperor, and he even abandoned his wife for the sake of the emperor's family. It was really a good story. However, this person who had sacrificed everything for the country did not seem to be too good. At the very least, he had lost too much.
" I want to leave the residence." In her boredom, Xiaoyan finally decided to go out for a walk. If she wanted to survive here, she had to have a certain amount of capital. Her decision shocked Xiao Xi, the servant girl beside her. She knew that this young lady was difficult to serve, and she was a demon who killed without blinking. If she wasn't new and didn't have a status, she wouldn't have been transferred to serve her. What should she do now? How could a woman go out?
" Miss... Miss, a lady from a rich family can't go out." Xiao Xi was at a loss for words." Are you afraid of me?"”Xiaoyan glanced at her from the corner of her eye. " No... no..." Xiao Xi was getting more and more sarcastic. Her words were trembling." Why are you afraid of me?"”Xiaoyan slammed the table.
Xiao Xi was so scared that she quickly knelt down and begged," Miss, don't kill me. I still have a sick mother to take care of. Miss, please do me a favor." Xiao Xi looked really pitiful and miserable. Unfortunately, she was facing Xiaoyan, not one of those soft-hearted people.
"Tell me, why are you afraid of me?" Xiaoyan grabbed her neck with one hand, her face ferocious.
"Miss, why do you have to make things difficult for a servant?" At this moment, Leng Leng walked in from outside the door. "Why do you care?" Xiaoyan hated it when people tried to control her. She thought that she could change others. Was she arrogant and conceited? Hmph, she was rather disdainful.
" No, I wouldn't dare. But why is Miss angry with a servant? It's not worth it," Leng Leng stopped her again.
"Leng Leng. You don't deserve to be an assassin, you don't deserve it!”Xiaoyan pushed Xiao Xi away and did not want to say anything more. "Leng Leng doesn't deserve it because I've never wanted to be a killer." He spoke bluntly. He didn't know why, but he felt that Xiao Yan wasn't a bad person. She was the person he had been searching for all these years, the person he had to protect with his life. This feeling was very strange and hard to resist.
"What's wrong with being an assassin? You can make whoever offends you pay the price, instead of begging the heavens to open their eyes in a pitiful manner. Why do you think that being an assassin is not good? You are an assassin. Don't you love your profession?”
Leng Leng was very confused. How could it be so good to be an assassin? One would lose too much and end up with nothing. Who could know what the final outcome of those famous assassins was like? So? Being an assassin had more disadvantages than advantages.
"I hate it. The price of being an assassin is too much. You don't get anything. He still died tragically at the hands of others."
"You're wrong. You have to pay a huge price for everything you do. Your tragic death at the hands of others only shows that you're not strong enough." Xiaoyan did not want to talk to this blockhead anymore and turned to Xiao Xi.
"I hope that you will disappear from this place before I return. Otherwise, you will definitely disappear from this continent."
" No…Miss, don't chase Xiao Xi away. Xiao Xi still has to take care of her sick mother. Miss, don't chase Xiao Xi away." Xiao Xi kowtowed desperately. This made the cold and anxious person beside her feel even more anxious.
Leng Leng was really disappointed at this moment. This female servant was really stupid. She just left when she was told to. Why did she say so much nonsense? Now, no one could save her life. "You don't want to leave? Do you…want to…die here?”Xiaoyan's tone was unfathomable. "Miss, please do me a favor."
Xiao Xi cried like a pear blossom covered in rain. It was really hard to part with her. Haha. How laughable, how funny. Beg her? The people who begged her were all queuing up at the Bridge of Helplessness to drink Meng Po's soup.
"You deserve to die!" He kicked Xiao Xi away and pulled out his dagger to finish her off.
"As long as the young miss doesn't kill her, Leng Leng is willing to serve the young miss and listen to the young miss 'orders for life. If she disobeys, she will die a horrible death!”The moment Xiaoyan attacked, Leng Leng knelt down. A man's knees were filled with gold, not to mention that he was the Hall Master of the Hall of Seven Kills.
"Why? Is she worth it?" Xiaoyan was very agitated. Why would a high and mighty assassin like him plead for mercy for a female servant, not hesitating to make himself look so pathetic?
" There's no reason. Miss, please let go of irrelevant people." Xiaoyan snorted coldly. What was irrelevant? Forget it, it was worth it to exchange such a maid for Leng Leng's loyalty.
Without saying anything else, he walked out, unwilling to look at the person on the ground again. Leng Leng followed him. From today onwards, he would serve her with all his heart and soul.
"I heard that your Hall of Seven Kills is quite powerful. Help me find where the real Ouyang Zimu is. I want to be the first person to know. Don't let me know that the first thing you did for me was not to do your best. Otherwise, you won't be able to imagine your future life."
She smiled bitterly. She didn't believe him. In this place, how could he not have integrity? If someone else said that about him, he would have left long ago. However, she was the one who said it. He didn't want to leave. It was really contradictory, hehe.
When he reached the door, the Prime Minister walked towards him. He was dressed in court clothes and had just finished morning court. He was truly loyal. He was indeed worthy of being the royal family's dog.
" Where are you going?" The Prime Minister's voice was not angry but authoritative, but it was useless against her. "Can't you see? Leave the residence."
"How can a lady go out? Didn't Xiao Xi tell you what to do?”The prime minister was a little unhappy. The housekeeper was at a loss on what to do. There was no young miss in the residence before, and everyone did not know how to serve the young miss. Moreover, this young miss's temper was a little strange, which made people even more helpless.
" Miss, you'd better return to the manor." The butler stepped forward to be the peacemaker.
" You can't control me. Get lost!" Xiaoyan was still in a bad mood. The " presumptuous " prime minister had never been treated like this before. Even his son had never refuted him.
"What right do you have to criticize me? Just because you are the prime minister? Prime Minister!" Xiaoyan walked up to him and looked straight into his eyes.
"The emperor wants to see you. I said you're sick. In a few days, father will personally bring you out."
"You can solve your own lies. Must others go along with you? Do you really want me to be sick? What a good father who dotes on his daughter. Isn't he afraid of ruining his daughter's fortune?”
After saying this, Xiaoyan left without caring about the Prime Minister's expression.
In the dark, Ouyang Qi was deep in thought. Was this really his sister? It shouldn't be. How could he raise such a strange woman? Moreover, according to the investigation, his sister had a very hard life in the past. She even had problems with three meals, let alone studying and practicing martial arts. However, the self-restraint of this person in the distance couldn't be cultivated overnight. Moreover, she didn't even have the slightest feeling of hiding it.
No, this definitely couldn't be his younger sister. He believed that his father had also investigated her. In the future, it would really be lively. It seemed that no one in the Ouyang family was to be trifled with. He wondered how much his father knew about his strength.
However, Leng Leng listened to her like this. The two of them were almost inseparable. She was afraid that this was Leng Leng's trap. As the Hall Master of the Hall of Seven Kills, what scheme did he have? It seemed like he had to pay more attention.
Since the current Emperor could rule such a large territory, he must have many eyes and ears. Moreover, this was at the foot of the capital. This matter would definitely spread to the Imperial Palace as soon as possible. At that time, it would probably be another bloody storm.
The streets were bustling, showing how well the emperor ruled. The people here must be very stable. After making a big circle, they arrived at the busiest street. Everyone here was smiling. It seemed that life was not bad.
Xiaoyan went to the pawnshop to pawn some of the gold, silver, and jewelry that the prime minister had given her for cash. She was prepared to open a unique restaurant.
Coincidentally, there was a shop at the four-way intersection that was about to be sold. Although the land here was good, the competition was too great. There were too many restaurants around. After four consecutive months of losses, the shop owner finally decided to sell the shop. Anyway, he had earned enough to support his family. He could also take this opportunity to return to his hometown and spend his later years in peace.
" You want to sell the shop here, right?" An elegant female voice came from outside the door." Yes, are you going to buy it?"”The shopkeeper took a deep breath when he saw Xiaoyan's beauty. Was there really such a beautiful woman in the world? She was so refined, like a fairy from another world who had accidentally entered the mortal world. She stood there alone like a painting, and no one had the heart to disturb her.
"Have you seen enough?" Xiaoyan was a little impatient, and the shop owner felt that she was being rude. If it wasn't for the fact that his eyes were filled with astonishment and shock, Xiaoyan would have taken his life long ago.
"Sorry, sorry.""Five hundred thousand taels." Xiaoyan immediately raised the price. The shop owner was stunned for a while before he reacted. After considering for a long time, the shop owner did not say a word. In the end, he agreed. After taking the deed, he wrote a transfer agreement with Xiaoyan and the deal was settled.
After settling such a big matter, Xiaoyan decided to go to the best restaurant for a meal and ask around about the market.
Speaking of which, the two of them had been the focus of attention on the streets along the way. Xiaoyan's clothes, beauty, and cold attire. This was really interesting.
" Pfft, it's so disgusting." Xiaoyan spat out the food in her mouth again, her brows furrowed tightly. Leng Leng tasted it. It was very good. It looked, smelled, and tasted good. Xiao Yan rolled her eyes at him. What taste? Although it wasn't delicious, it was really not delicious if one tried it with the requirements of a master. It was not presentable.
It seemed that it was easy for her to gain a foothold here. Her culinary skills were not to be underestimated. In Dark Purple, she was a top-notch killer. Not only because of her killing skills, but also because of her perfection.
" It's not bad. It's very good," a little girl at the next table mumbled. Her voice was not loud at all, but it was just enough to reach her ears.
" Die 'er, shut up." The man beside her stopped her. "But Second Brother, I'm telling the truth. Didn't you say that you can't lie?”Die 'er mumbled. Daguan Review Passed: Daguan Time:111420183: 27PM #Cancel Review All: wdd201302 Time:111420185: 54PM #
