Grab a Handsome Guy as Strategist - C4

“Oh, you even know martial arts?” Mu Yurou looked at Shen Bai who was standing to the side unperturbed, her eyes flashing with excitement as if she had found an opponent.

After all, she was the chief of the Qingfeng Stronghold and no one dared to fight her. Outside, other people were afraid of the reputation of the Qingfeng Stronghold, so they didn’t dare to fight against her.

It had been a long time since she’d been able to find someone on par with her. With Shen Bai’s appearance, she felt like she could finally extricate herself from the incomparable pain of being on high.

Mu Yizi made her move extremely quickly, pressing on Shen Bai step by step, wanting to fight him. But he did not expect that Shen Bai would just keep dodging, not taking the hit.

“Hey, why aren’t you helping out?” she asked anxiously as she punched at him.

As Mu Yizi’s emotions began to grow more and more anxious, the speed at which she made her moves also became faster and faster. However, this greatly increased the rate at which his physical strength was being consumed.

Not long after, she started to pant.

Just as Mu Yizi was preparing to make her final attack, the sound of frantic footsteps came from outside.

“Boss, something bad happened!” Mudskin ran over, his clothes in a mess, and said while gasping for breath.

Mu Yurou stopped moving and pretended to be impatient as she looked towards the door with her belt tied around her waist. She secretly heaved a sigh of relief, thinking to herself, This son of mine really came at the right time.

“Why do you always call me that? Slow down, what’s going on? ” Mu Yizi retracted her movement, her hands on her waist as she tried hard to calm her breathing.

Kid quickly took a few deep breaths to calm himself down. Then, like an ant on a hot pan, he anxiously said, “Boss, there’s a group of soldiers coming from outside. They’ve surrounded our stronghold!”

“What?” Officer? Other than going down the mountain to take liberties with rich Meng, our Qingfeng Stronghold has no other reason to fight or rob. Why would soldiers come knocking on our door? ”

Since she had taken over the Qingfeng Stronghold, she had not cared about what reputation the Qingfeng Stronghold had, but she had asked herself in her heart. She had not brought her brothers to do anything against the world, so how could the soldiers come over to make trouble?

“Clan Head Mu, no matter what has happened, we should first take a look at the situation.”

At this moment, Shen Bai’s sudden words reminded her that she should hurry to the front hall to understand the situation before making her plans.

“Alright!” After saying that, Mu Yizi lifted her leg and rushed to the front hall, followed by Luozi and Shen Bai.

When they arrived at the lobby, they saw that the brothers were already dressed neatly, with weapons in their hands, as they faced the surrounding soldiers.

Among the numerous soldiers, there was a man riding a tall horse, holding a silver spear as he sat majestically on it.

When he saw Mu Yizi appear, he opened his mouth and said, “The people of the Pure Wind House inside listen up, I am a fourth rank Ming Wei General. If you don’t want to be completely wiped out, it’s best to surrender quickly.

Heh, she dared to taunt her from a mere fourth grade? Her father had been a first rank hussar, a general of the first rank, on equal footing with the prime minister. How could he, a fourth rank cultivator, have the guts to act so arrogantly in front of her? “If it wasn’t for her father …

Mu Yizi quickly shook off the thoughts in her head. Now was not the time to let her imagination run wild. Right now, the most important thing for him to do now was to think of a way to solve this big problem called General Mingwei.

“I didn’t know that General Mingwei would arrive. I really welcome him from afar!” I wonder why General Ji has travelled so far to come here? She stood at the back of the crowd and spoke in a neither humble nor haughty manner. He put his hands behind his back, showing no sign of cowardice.

Looking at Mu Yizi, Shen Bai’s heart decided that he had chosen the right person.

“Insolent and unscrupulous people, you who occupy the mountains and become kings for yourselves have been robbing homes for many years. Today, the Japanese generals were here to enforce justice on behalf of the heavens! Not to mention that I’ve been ordered by His Majesty to personally exterminate the bandits! Obediently surrender so that this general won’t have any trouble! ”

Ji Wei scoffed at Mu Youzi, his tone filled with arrogance. If he hadn’t heard the rumors a few days ago that His Majesty was planning to secretly visit this place, he wouldn’t have come out to exterminate the bandits at this time. In the county, he could enjoy a few days of filial piety in comfort.

“Heh, so His Majesty was so bored these days that he even personally ordered the extermination of bandits in such a large place like Agarwood?” How could she not believe that just because Qing Tong Mountain was far from the capital, the emperor would personally order a fourth grade hussar general to annihilate a small stronghold like the Qingfeng Stronghold?

At this moment, every move of hers had a captivating effect. This also allowed the Qingfeng Stronghold brothers to calm down. Since their boss was a girl with so much confidence, how could they possibly lose this battle? Furthermore, ever since their boss had taken control of the stronghold, they no longer had to fight and kill to live a peaceful and peaceful life.

They would absolutely not allow anyone to destroy their life like this.

“You … “How dare you, a mere grass bandit, insult His Majesty?” Ji Wei was momentarily stunned. It was indeed His Majesty who had ordered the extermination of the bandits, but the Emperor hadn’t said anything about exterminating this bronze mountain.

“Today, His Majesty sympathized with the affairs of the people and ordered this general to eliminate the bandits. Therefore, no matter if it’s your Bronze Mountain’s Pure Wind Stronghold or any other bandit’s stronghold, you cannot let them go! ” Although it seemed as though Ji Wei said this in a righteous manner, he actually felt extremely nervous. He had never thought that a teenage girl like the Fresh Breeze Stronghold’s chief would be so neither servile nor overbearing. It seemed like this person was not easy to deal with.

“Since His Majesty was the one who ordered the bandits to be exterminated, it should be the villainous bandits of the village that he’s exterminating.” Leaving aside the things that my Qingfeng Stronghold has done in the past, ever since I, Mu Yizi, took over, my Qingfeng Stronghold has never done anything that would harm the heavens and the earth! In addition, His Majesty had always used benevolence and virtue to rule the world. He was someone who loved the people like a son! “Your Majesty is compassionate to the people. Are our brothers at Qingfeng stronghold not His Majesty’s commoners?”

Mu Yizi laughed coldly as she spoke in a neither fast nor slow manner, but her words were clearly mocking Ji Wei for using a chicken feather as an arrow and accusing a good citizen of being wrongly accused without asking questions.

Right at this moment, Moneybags Meng appeared from behind Ji Wei, and said to Ji Wei with a flattering look, “General Ji, you must not listen to her blabbering. The citizens of Qizhou City all know that this person would occasionally run down the mountain to rob money from this vile person’s mansion! The little guy was suffering because of this! Yesterday, you caused a ruckus at my wedding, causing me to lose face.

“Clan Chief Mu, do you have anything else to say?”

As if she had already expected it, Mu Huanzhi calmly answered, “General Ji, since that’s the case, this humble one has a question to ask you. The most powerful person in Qizhou City is the Master Meng beside you. Not only did he forcibly take away a woman, but he also colluded with officials in the fish village. If General Ji were to tell me today that he doesn’t want to ask for the truth and that he wants to protect such a despicable person, I would unavoidably suspect that General Ji, Qiushan Prefecture and Master Meng are both sleeping in the same place! ”

With just a few simple sentences, Ji Wei was pushed into a corner.

If he wanted to exterminate the Qingfeng Stronghold, he would be in cahoots with Master Meng and Zhi Prefecture. As a general, if word were to spread that he had become a small fry with an insignificant official and tycoon, how would he be able to command the armies of the three armies?

Just as Ji Wei was hesitating on how to reply, a series of shouts entered his ears.

He looked towards the direction of the sound. A group of commoners holding a hoe, broom and the like ran over. They pushed aside the soldiers in front of them and walked into their encirclement. He then blocked the entrance of the Qingfeng Stronghold.

“What are you doing?” General Ji looked at the people in front of him in confusion. He didn’t expect that they would be dragged into this mess. If he insisted on killing the bandits, His Majesty would most likely punish him.

“The Mu clan’s chief has been taking good care of us all the time. If there’s nothing else, you can take the money and food with you to split with us!” We will not allow anyone to harm our benefactor! ” A young and strong looking young man raised his hoe and shouted loudly. The other citizens also followed suit.

This was the first time Ji Wei had met such a popular bandit!

“Ahem, everyone, this general is only following orders. Please do not interfere. Otherwise, do not blame this general for punishing you for obstructing official business!” Clearing his throat, Ji Wei spoke with a serious expression. If he didn’t put on a face, he really wouldn’t know how to get down this flight of stairs.

“Pui!” The officials protecting you don’t give a hoot about us common folk. It’s one thing to put on airs all day long and force us to hide in the wilderness! It wasn’t easy for us to meet a good person like the Mu clan’s chief, and you guys still came to kill them! Where is the logic of heaven!? ” The young man who just spoke wasn’t intimidated by Ji Wei’s words and was instead even more angry.

This time, Ji Wei had forced himself into a dead end. He had never thought that these commoners would not know what was good for them.

It was unknown when a plain carriage appeared not too far away, and the carriage was constantly observing their every move.

“Mistress, should we send someone to ask what is going on ahead?” A man dressed as a manservant stood by the side of the carriage and spoke respectfully. His voice was soft, but it did not sound manly at all.

The woman in the carriage glanced at the man and said faintly, “No need, let’s take a look first.”

The woman seemed to have seen something as she smiled and said to the man beside her, “Go and investigate the identity of the man in red over there.”

The man nodded and quickly gave out instructions, as if he was already used to this.

Perhaps Master had taken a fancy to a handsome young master who looked similar to that man?

In the man’s heart, he still felt sympathy for the young master. After all, it wasn’t an easy thing for a man to lie to a woman.
