Chapter 332

"Your Excellency is truly wise!"

Jiao Niang seemed a little surprised, but also felt that it was reasonable and not too surprised.

She didn't find it surprising.

But it really scared Wang Shang.

"You're not kidding me, are you?"

Wang Shang's face was serious: "Jiao Niang, now is not the time to joke."

"Don't tell me irrelevant things, okay?"

"I'm talking to you seriously now."

"It's been so long since the incident happened, and Jiang Genshan has been confirmed dead. Jiang Anning is bound to attack us. However, since the person who died was not Jiang Fang, the attack may not come so quickly for the time being."

"Stop making irrelevant jokes with me."

Wang Shang was particularly serious.

Jiao Niang rolled her eyes at him: "Who is kidding you?"

"What time is it now? Don't I know?"

"I don't have the time to joke with you."

"I'm not as boring as you think."

"Don't blame me for whatever shit you think of, okay?"

Jiao Niang snorted, "Do you think I wasn't surprised when I first heard the name Jiang Anning?"

"I'm not much less shocked than you, okay?"

"It is precisely because I am shocked that I let you guess."

"The reason I'm telling you this now is naturally because I have verified the source of all the information."

"Make sure this news is authentic."

"What? Are you surprised? You didn't expect that!"

"Didn't you expect that not only is Sang Jingwan very mysterious, but even her daughter, Jiang Anning, whom we have been watching for nine years, is equally mysterious and hard to figure out."

"I think we should feel similar to Jiang Wei right now."

Wang Shang frowned: "What does this have to do with Jiang Wei?"

"It doesn't matter, I just use it to describe it."

Jiao Niang shrugged: "Metaphor, don't you understand?"

Wang Shang glared at him fiercely and said, "You should be thankful that now, there are only you and me left."

"Why not?"

Jiao Niang said indifferently: "Or are you going to kill me? To show your authority?"

"I don't have the time to waste on useless nonsense with you."

Wang Shang said with a straight face: "Tell me quickly, what does this have to do with Jiang Anning?"

"Actually, if you want to say it has anything to do with Jiang Anning, it really doesn't have much to do with it."

Jiao Niang's nonsense, which seemed to have said something but actually said nothing, completely aroused Wang Shang's anger.

He suddenly became angry, and his palm came whistling and went straight to the face of the beautiful girl.

The girl almost couldn't dodge in time.

After she stood still, she widened her eyes and angrily asked, "Wang Shang, what's wrong with you again?"

"Do you really think that I can't beat you and I don't dare to kill you?"

Wang Shang sneered: "What a coincidence, you said what I wanted to say to you."

"Do you think I dare not kill you?"

"That's why you dare to push your limits here again and again, challenging my bottom line."

"When I was talking to you nicely, you refused to speak, so why not just stop talking now!"

"Anyway, I'll know one day."

"If you can find out something, can't I find out?"

"It's just spending some energy and time! How important do you really think you are?"

Wang Shang was venting his dissatisfaction, but it was not entirely directed at Jiao Niang.

More importantly, he was upset because he had just lost to Jiang Anning.

Jiao Niang avoided the continuous attacks from others.

"Wang Shang, if you are sick, go get treatment immediately!"

"If you really want to fight me to the death, then I won't be polite to you."

Jiao Niang still left herself some room to fight back for the time being.

She thought that Wang Shang might have been upset somewhere and had nowhere to vent his anger, so he came to her to vent his anger.

This has happened before.

She would play around with the person for a while, and the person would naturally come to his senses on his own.

When the time comes, she will curse a few more times, just to vent her emotions.

But this time, Wang Shang seemed determined and really wanted to kill her!

In that case, don't blame her for being cruel!
Jiao Niang did not hold back when dealing with others.

Suddenly, the corners of Wang Shang's mouth curved up.

It seems to be ironic.

"You don't know your own limitations... ugh!"

The sarcastic voice had not yet faded away, and Wang Shang was covering his chest in disbelief.

you!
madman!

He was filled with resentment and wanted to say something, but he simply couldn't say it.

As soon as he opened his mouth, large mouthfuls of blood gushed out.

The beautiful lady laughed out loud, “Hahahahahaha”, feeling more happy than ever before.

As her laughter became more and more wanton, she spat out a large mouthful of blood.

But she still didn't stop laughing.

It was as if after being suppressed for so many years, I could finally do whatever I wanted and laugh out loud.

Wang Shang widened his eyes in disbelief.

How, how dare this woman poison him?

When fighting with him, he used his own body as a medium to poison him.

Is she crazy?
Don’t want to live anymore?
"Yes, I just don't want to live anymore."

The beautiful lady burst into laughter and soon fell backwards to the ground, as if she had lost the strength to support herself.

"I guess you must be regretting it now."

"Have you never thought that I would be so resolute?"

"Have you ever thought that one day you will die in my hands?"

"To be honest, I've wanted to do this for a long time."

"Commander, you are still too conceited."

"Do you think I still have anything to cling to in this world?"

"I've had enough of being oppressed by you all day long."

"Not to mention that after leaving that place, I have seen so much infighting, betrayal and conspiracy. Although it seems safe now, the feeling of having your head in your hands has never disappeared."

"I've had enough of this life of fear and anxiety."

"I have thought about this countless times, why not just end it like this."

"But every time, from dusk till dawn, from the start of the mission to the end of the mission."

"I'm obviously extremely resistant in my heart every time, but I just keep repeating these things day after day like a puppet or a walking corpse." Jiao Niang smiled bitterly, looking at the ceiling above her head, feeling sorry for herself.

"Sometimes I really wonder if I have really become the knife in the emperor's hand."

"Without emotions or thoughts of my own, I am nothing more than a tool that is quite useful."

How ridiculous.

Also sad.

"When will it be useless?"

"Just thrown away in some corner where no one cares."

"Let yourself die, and end this remaining life."

"Maybe this is the end of my life."

“Actually, think about it, what’s the difference?”

“Perhaps the biggest difference is dying earlier or later.”

"Now, I am myself and my own master."

The girl smiled sadly, but soon felt relieved.

"How can this not be considered a tool that originally had no emotions, let alone thoughts, suddenly developing its own spirit?"

"Don't tell me, I'm quite happy now thinking about it, and I feel very accomplished."

"I just don't know what the commander-in-chief feels now, huh?"

Jiao Niang laughed heartily, gloating over her misfortune.

The laughter sounded really harsh to Wang Shang's ears.

But no matter how dissatisfied he was, he had no chance to speak out.

He could gradually feel the vitality draining away from his body.

My hands and feet gradually became cold.

He stopped spitting out blood from his mouth, but perhaps his blood was almost gone.

It turns out that when people are about to die, they have no chance to say a lot of things.

But he still has so many things to say.

Wang Shang gradually felt his vision becoming blurry.

He tried hard to open his eyes.

I want to take one last good look at this world.

But after all...

It's not possible.

Jiao Niang was right about one thing.

He had never thought that one day he would die at the hands of a beautiful woman.

Such haste.

It can be seen that things in the world are indeed impermanent.

No one can predict what will happen next.

That's it!

That's all!

The last thing Wang Shang thought of was the people he had killed over the years, not Jiang Anning, for whom he had felt soft-hearted, not Sang Jingwan, for whom he had felt guilty, not his colleagues and comrades, nor the emperor he had served.

But...

When he walked out of that place where people were eaten without leaving any bones behind, the first rays of dawn shone on the earth.

An unknown wild flower is blooming in the wind.

so good!
Wang Shang thought.

very nice.
-
No one expected that one crisis would come after another.

Before anyone could recover from the shock of the child being thrown from the Taotie Tower, they heard the waiter passing by the backyard, screaming, “Someone’s been murdered!”

The waiter's voice instantly caused panic among everyone in the Taotie Building.

If the people from the yamen had not arrived in time, there would probably have been a stampede.

Now that there were people from the government maintaining order, everyone became much calmer and instead watched the excitement with curiosity.

"Who is that person? Why is he in the backyard of Taotie Building? Is he a worker?"

"What kind of worker? I can tell you don't come to Taotie Tower often, right? The backyard of Taotie Tower is a place of luxury that ordinary people can't easily enter!"

Some people couldn't help but be curious after hearing this: "What's the point? Aren't they all places for eating and drinking? Why are they different from each other?"

"That's certainly different!"

"You probably don't know, right? In the backyard of this Taotie Building, a single peony costs eight hundred coins! And this is just the most inconspicuous variety."

"Those precious peonies can even cost three or five strings of cash to buy, not to mention that there are also very precious peonies among them! It is said to be worth a thousand gold coins."

hiss!
Everyone gasped.

"It's just an ordinary flower, but it's worth a fortune?"

"How is this possible? You are just bragging!"

"What kind of family would be willing to spend a fortune to buy a flower?"

"You can't eat this flower, you can only look at it. Looking at it won't help you live longer. It will wither in a few days. I spent a fortune on something that I can't keep. Isn't this just pure ripping?"

Everyone didn't believe what this man said about how precious the peonies in Taotie Tower were.

"Are you telling us lies here to drive up the price so that we can all buy flowers?"

"Don't tell me, this is really possible!"

"There is a poem that says that the King of Chu loves thin waists, and many people in the palace starved to death. Once liking something becomes a trend, the price will naturally rise, even to the point of being inflated."

"I think everyone should be more vigilant. If you believe everything others say, when you are older, you may be treated like a carrot and cheated out of your retirement money."

Everyone was shocked at first, and then they refuted.

I’m afraid that I might accidentally believe it and fall into some consumer trap.

"Why would I trick you into doing this?"

"If you don't believe me, you can go and take a look at the notice board in front of the government office."

Someone asked curiously, "Why do we have to look at the bulletin board in front of the government office to see how much a flower in Taotie Tower is worth? The bulletin board in the government office doesn't say how much a peony must be worth, right? Aren't the prices of these things inflated by you flower merchants?"

The person who was refuted was immediately furious: "How can I be a flower seller? Don't talk nonsense and put the blame on others!"

"I was telling the truth, but you guys made me look like a flower seller."

"Is there any benefit for me to say these things?"

"If I were really a florist, I could raise the flower stand accordingly, that would be fine."

"Why are you putting the blame on me for something that has nothing to do with me?"

The man looked very unhappy when he heard more and more people saying that he was a flower merchant and was taking the opportunity to raise the price of flowers.

"I asked you to read the notice of the government office because not long ago, someone had evil intentions while eating in Taotie Tower. Knowing that the peonies in Taotie Tower are expensive, he wanted to secretly steal the peonies and sell them on the black market!"

“But the people in this black market don’t dare to take the risk to collect the precious items from Taotie Tower!”

"So we informed Taotie Tower about this matter and sent the person to Taotie Tower as well, and told them to let Taotie Tower handle the matter for them."

"The Taotie Building sent the man to the government. The government considered various factors and convicted the thief based on the market price and the amount of money he stole."

"In order to demonstrate fairness and justice, the prices of these flowers have been posted on the notice board for the public to monitor."

"If you have objections to the price, you can go to the government to question it."

He sneered a few times: "If you can successfully question and provide evidence that these flowers are not worth the price, the thief may even thank you."

When the truth was revealed, everyone suddenly felt guilty. They looked at each other and were afraid to speak anymore.

But there are still people who have doubts in their hearts, or who stubbornly refuse to believe it.
