General, Your Wife Wants You to Get Out - C113

“General, don’t even think about it. Since the imperial edict is in your hands, you can still defy the imperial decree no matter what.”

This matter might not have caused that much of a headache for others, but it was different for Xiao Qian.

He was a grimace of terror when he rushed to the battlefield with a sword in his hand; he was the most admired general in his men’s ranks when he put down his weapon and removed his armor.

After living and eating with the soldiers for so many years, he had never put on any airs and had only been able to kill his subordinates with a heart of stone.

“My sword will only drink the blood of the Huns. It will not point to the people of the Great Wei.”

Qing Mu sighed. “Even though he said that, His Majesty’s royal decree has already been issued. Could it be that you want him to retract his orders?”

Xiao Qian put away the imperial edict and said coldly, “Your majesty wants peace and stability. The soldiers just want to fill their stomachs. He only hated those who were greedy and rebellious. He had deducted the military’s pay, which was why this country was in such a state of turmoil. If we do not eliminate the dangers of a country, then we can only treat the symptoms and not the root cause. ”

“Then what does the general mean?”

The man smiled coldly and said in a deep voice, “I will definitely go to pacify the chaos, but before that happens, I have no choice but to eliminate a few people.”

When the army was checking the account books, Su Zhi had given him advice to keep those corrupt people under Zhao Ditch’s command and collect strong evidence. They would definitely have something useful to use in the future.

Thanks to that little woman.

Xiao Qian’s gaze softened. Had she missed him after not seeing him for two days?

The next morning at daybreak, she got some hot water and knocked on the door to serve him.

As she had not slept soundly last night, Su Zhi woke up very early, and her head was still a little dizzy.

“Madam, the snow outside has only stopped for a short while. It’s bone-piercing cold, so don’t go to the store today.”

“That won’t do. The number of customers taking in New Year’s gifts has increased tremendously these days. The store doesn’t even have enough staff, how could I dare to go?”

After about six or seven days, the store would close and close. Taking advantage of the last few days, he could earn some money for the new year.

However, for some reason, she felt uneasy early in the morning, unable to calm down.

Su Zhi forced herself to drink some porridge. Looking at the vast snowfall outside, she really did not want to go out.

Yesterday evening, Li Yi had made it clear to her that today was his cousin’s birthday, and he had to make a trip to the capital.

At that time, once he left, the only thing the shop could do was rely on Su Zhi. It would be impossible for them not to go.

Outside the house was a vast expanse of white. The mountains and the water were all covered in a snowy fog. The lead gray sky didn’t have any sunlight, making it so gloomy that it made people’s hearts unsettled.

Su Zhi stood at the door for a long time before mustering up the courage to take the umbrella and leave.

“Madam, come back early today. It’s a small New Year’s Eve, let’s gather together and have a good time.”

“Oh, please, Mommy Ding, please remind me to come back early.”

Su Zhi got on the carriage and counted the days with her hands. She did not expect that she would be so young that she would not even know about it.

As the carriage moved away, the woman revealed a sallow face and stared coldly at the door with the word ‘Blessed’ on it.

The dagger in her hand glinted with a clear, cold light. It had just killed someone yesterday, and on closer inspection, there were traces of dried blood.

Mother Ding closed the door and remembered the couplet. She quickly went inside to find the paste. While smiling, she shook her head and said, “Sure enough, he’s old and his brain isn’t working.”

“Bang, bang, bang!”

There was a sharp knock on the door, and she stopped and turned back.

“Who is it? It’s so early in the morning.”

“Bang, bang, bang!” The knocking on the door became even louder.

“Coming, coming.”

Other than knocking on the door, no one else could be heard. Mrs Ding’s hand that was holding the door latch stopped. She remembered Su Zhi’s repeated warnings and didn’t dare to rashly open the door.

“Who’s outside?”

She couldn’t see anyone through the crack in the door, so she pressed her ear against the door to listen for movement.

“It’s me, aunty. I’m here to bring you cakes.”

The voice of an unfamiliar woman came from outside the door, so she could not recognize it.

After coming to Spring Leaf Lane, Gu Sister-in-Law and Aunt Bai would send things over every few days.

Other than that, there were also a few other families that were familiar with each other.

Miss Ding was not sure which daughter-in-law came to deliver the waffles.

“Aunt, it’s very cold outside. Open the door, I have to go to Aunt Bai’s house after you take the cake.”

The spring cake giver had really come!

It was freezing cold, and Mrs. Ding could not bear to be kind to him. She quickly pulled the bolt on the door and opened it.

When He Qiniang heard the sound of the door opening, she gave a cold laugh. The dagger in her hand was ready to strike at any moment.

“I’m truly sorry …”

“Go to hell, old thing!”

Before Mrs Ding could finish her sentence, He Qiniang had already pushed open the door. Her sharp dagger fiercely stabbed towards her mother’s chest. Even a few more slashes wouldn’t be enough to quell her hatred.

“You …”

Mother Ding forcefully pulled on He Qiniang’s sleeve. Pain spread throughout her body, and she was unable to utter a complete sentence.

Dan Xue finished sharpening the rice noodles and wiped her hands clean. She walked out of the kitchen and saw that her mother’s body was limp as she fell into a pool of blood. The ferocious looking woman standing next to her smiled strangely.

The servant girl at the house had never seen such things before, she immediately screamed out, “Murder! Murder! Someone come quickly! ”

The first person who heard the sound was A Jin. Hearing the call from outside, he reflexively hid the small bean bag in the wardrobe.

He Qi Niang stood up, raised her dagger and pounced towards the young maid under the eaves.

Danxue was scared out of her wits and screamed as she hid inside the house. In a hurry, she tripped on the door frame and fell heavily onto the ground.

“Big Sister Dan Xue!”

A Jin ran out and was about to run into He Qiniang, who was about to commit murder, but her face suddenly turned pale.

“Little bastard, I’ve been waiting for you! Hahaha!”

“No, Jin’er, run!”

Danxue didn’t care about being scared. She grabbed He Qi Niang’s legs and wailed, “Young Mistress, let’s go!”

“Want to leave?” It’s not that easy! ”

A Jin’s legs couldn’t help but shake, clenching his teeth and throwing caution to the wind, he grabbed a wooden stick in the corner and rushed over.

“Ah!” I’ll beat you to death! ”

He Qi Niang lowered her body and stabbed the dagger in her hand towards the young maid who was on the ground.

The sound of a sharp weapon piercing through flesh was heard. Dan Xue felt a bone-piercing pain from her back as the strength in her hand loosened.

Breaking free from the restraints, He Qiniang raised the dagger in her hand and stabbed towards A Jin once again.

“No!”

Danxue’s consciousness gradually became blurry and her vision started to blur. She was unable to see the movements of the bandits clearly.

When she heard the woman’s cries of pain, she fainted completely.

He Qi Niang took the stick from A Jin’s hand and pushed it over with a smile, “Your mother harmed me, so I can only kill you to quell my anger. I will be accompanying my poor child on the Road to River Styx.”

“You, don’t come over!”

Without a weapon in hand, A Jin collapsed to the ground, groping around.

“If you want to blame someone, blame your heartless mother. In your next life, I will wipe the bright spots from your eyes.”

A cold dagger came piercing over. Jin closed her eyes instinctively and curled her body into a ball.

The premonition of pain didn’t come, and a woman’s pained voice sounded in his ear. When A Jin opened his eyes, he saw two masked men in black holding onto He Qiniang’s wrist.

Crack * The woman twisted her face, and when the man in black let go of her hand, the hand had already lost all of its strength and was now lying limply on the ground.

A Jin was stunned. “Who are you?!”

The two men in black exchanged a look, kicked the woman out of the door, jumped on the beam and disappeared.

The woman who had suffered a loss struggled up from the ground and left the yard as if she had escaped.

Only then did A Jin react. She rushed towards the servant girl on the ground and shoved her: “Big Sister Dan Xue, wake up! I’ll go get someone, hold on! ”

He dried his eyes but couldn’t stop crying. He ran outside, sobbing.

“Is there anyone here? Come quickly to my house!”
