Chapter 226 - Chapter 226 - A transactionIn the darkness, a handsome horse entered the Yuexi Clan"s camp. The man handed the horse over to his servant and quickly entered the camp.
A crescent moon hung in the sky. Occasionally, there was a black veil wrapped around it, and the faint moonlight was swallowed up by the darkness.
The inn was in a mess as a tall figure stood amidst the cold wind.
Yun Xie looked at the tavern that was in a mess and lost her train of thought. Seems like this person had been planning for a long time, she had first burned the tavern and kidnapped Wei Guanshu, and then she used a method to lure the tiger out of the mountain to kidnap Wei Yuanwei.
red secret guards did not discover anything suspicious from the mess. Suddenly, a sharp arrow pierced through the air and deeply embedded itself into the pile of charred wood.
Shangli immediately brought the red secret guards to follow the direction of the flying arrow to look for suspicious people.
Xuan Li pulled out the arrow and saw that there was a letter on top. Xuan Li was worried that there was poison on the letter, so he carefully opened it and saw that nothing strange was happening before handing it over to Yun Xie.
The guard brought the lantern over, and after reading the letter, Yun Xie abruptly crushed the letter in her hand. She never thought that Yuexi Clan would have such guts, actually daring to kidnap his person and even openly ask for food and fodder.
Yuexi Clan was very cunning, they did not suggest where they should trade, and only asked Yun Xie to prepare three thousand loads of food and offer it up to them in a letter.
When Shangli returned, she only brought back a corpse. That person committed suicide when she saw that she was unable to escape red secret guards"s pursuit, but on that person"s body, she saw the runes carved on Yuexi Clan"s body.
"Xuan Li, immediately order someone to prepare three thousand loads of food and ten thousand taels of gold." Only this way, would she be able to ensure the safety of Wei Yuanwei and his sister. However, as long as they ate the food, he would make them vomit whatever they wanted.
"Shangli, this king has ordered you to lead the red secret guards to find the Yuexi Clan"s encampment within three days." Yun Xie"s pupils suddenly contracted. Three years ago, he had let go of Yuexi Clan, but he did not expect them to not only not repent but also attack him openly.
This night was destined to be a sleepless night. Wei Yuanwei tossed and turned on his wolf skin blanket, as she kept feeling that things weren"t as simple as it seemed.
"Mistress, please don"t get a cold." Ever since the last time he saw Wei Yuanwei suffer from an illness, Yin Sheng had always been worried that Wei Yuanwei would feel cold.
A warm feeling flowed through Wei Yuanwei"s heart as she gave a piece of the wolf skin to Yin Sheng, "Yin Sheng, it"s fortunate that there"s still you. If you weren"t always protecting me by my side, I really don"t know how I would have endured it."
"Master, don"t say such words. In the future, Yin Sheng will always stay by Master"s side." Yin Sheng smiled at Wei Yuanwei.
Wei Yuanwei caressed Yin Sheng"s chubby face and laughed: "Un, this place seems to have too much meat, this place is still a little high. When we return to the Mo City, I will make our Yin Sheng even more beautiful and charm his to death."
Yin Sheng had always been thin-skinned. Upon hearing these words, her face turned hot, and blood dripped from her face: "Master will make me happy."
Although the people of Yuexi did not do anything to them, the food they were given was pitifully little. Even the goat"s milk they gave was sour.
Yin Sheng suffered from the cold and her body was slightly hot. Wei Yuanwei"s heart was filled with anxiety.
She tried to ask Yuexi Clan for some medicinal herbs, but the Yuexi people ignored her.
"Little sister, save your energy, Yin Sheng is just a servant. When you return to Mo City, all you need to do is wave your hand and countless servant girls will squeeze out to serve you." The corner of Wei Guanshu"s mouth held a trace of a mocking smile.
Wei Guanshu was a selfish person, in her eyes, only her life was worth the most. All her gentleness, love, and promises were all for herself.
Wei Yuanwei had even predicted Liu"er"s future, and that she would die a miserable death, because she had met a master with a venomous heart.
"In my eyes, Yin Sheng"s life is much more precious than elder sister"s. Buddha says that those with good intentions are Jin Cheng, and those who harbor evil intentions are incomparably lowly. After death, they can only descend to the eighteenth level of h.e.l.l." Wei Yuanwei looked at Wei Guanshu coldly.
The corner of her mouth also rose slightly. The last person who could laugh could only be her, Wei Guanshu, and Wei Yuanwei was just a clown who would find out about her methods in a while.
Wei Yuanwei touched the embroidered bag on her body, the jade bottle gourd that Ning Zheyan had given her had already been lost in the chaos, it seemed like she could only rely on himself.
Wei Yuanwei placed the blade on the table, which was used to cut food, against her neck as she walked out.
The Yuexi Clan"s guards instantly surrounded them, but the King had warned them not to make any mistakes, and that they could only follow Wei Yuanwei"s footsteps and slowly retreat.
"I want to see your King!" Wei Yuanwei"s voice was resounding and carried an irresistible majesty.
Wei Yuanwei had a premonition that the King of Yuexi was looking at her. The corner of Wei Yuanwei"s mouth suddenly curved into a smile, just like a beautiful red plum blossoming in the snow.
Wei Yuanwei suddenly raised her dagger and stabbed it into his chest. Suddenly, a sharp arrow pierced through the wind and clashed against the dagger with a loud bang, causing Wei Yuanwei"s arm to go numb. She had won the bet.
The two servants led Wei Yuanwei to a tent.
There was a woman wearing a veil nestling beside King of Yuexi. One could tell that King of Yuexi treated this woman differently, but there was still a trace of gentleness in his eyes, which she had not managed to withdraw in time.
The girl cut off a piece of the lamb that was emitting a fragrance from the table and placed it in King of Yuexi"s mouth. She tenderly picked up the wine and placed it in front of King of Yuexi.
King of Yuexi took the alcohol and gulped it down her throat.
Wei Yuanwei calmly walked over and sat opposite of King of Yuexi. She picked up the blade on the table and sliced off the lamb, her actions was extremely ruthless, as though he was an enemy who was slaughtering her.
She placed the piece of meat into her mouth and chewed it, staring at King of Yuexi.
King of Yuexi suddenly burst out in clear laughter, "It"s such a pity for the w.a.n.gfei to be born in the Central Plains. If she was born in our Yuexi Clan, she would definitely be able to gallop across the gra.s.slands."
Wei Yuanwei was indeed a little hungry. After continuously swallowing three pieces of mutton, she used his hand to wipe the grease on his mouth.
Wei Yuanwei glanced at the woman, and she suddenly stabbed her blade into the table: "I want to make a deal with you."
King of Yuexi"s eyes were filled with mockery. She was already his prisoner, what other deals could she make?
"Oh? What is Princess HuYang"s bargaining chip? " King of Yuexi smiled and said patiently.
Wei Yuanwei looked at the girl and she became more a.s.sured. She then extended out her hand and placed it on the table.
