Damn it, I'm in the garbage book I wrote

Chapter 580 Let’s Play a Little Game
Those who can leave their names in history and let future generations know their life stories are not weaklings. Every one of them is a top player. Even those who are clearly recorded in history as incompetent or even funny are the elite among the elite when compared with most people.

Xu Shiji might not be able to beat Li Shimin or Li Jing on the sand table, but playing with Xuanling, who "knows a little about military tactics", is no different from playing with a dog.

Xuan Ling sat there in despair watching her own defeat. She didn't even have the chance to fight back. She just felt like her IQ was being ruthlessly pinned to the ground and trampled on. Even though Xu Shiji let her take the initiative and asked the directorate to give her better equipment, better supply lines, and even a city alone, she couldn't withstand the impact of Xu Shiji's complete disadvantage.

"Daosheng, if you play with me, I can still be interested." Xu Shiji glanced at Xuanling before leaving: "She? Ha..."

A light chuckle actually broke down Xuan Ling's defense. She now sat there expressionless, while Xia Lin happily saw Xu Shiji off, then returned to the yard and came in front of Xuan Ling with his hands behind his back.

"How is it? Miss Xuanling, if you have any advantages, just show them."

Xuan Ling actually always wanted to say that she had an elegant figure and outstanding looks. Rumor has it that Xia Daosheng was greedy for money and lustful. Didn't she have any advantages at all?

But just when she wanted to show off her mature charm, Tingyun came in from outside. She put a few cakes on the table and said to Xia Lin, "Sir, I made some cakes for you. Eat some first. You haven't eaten well these past few days."

"Put less sugar in the cake next time." Xia Lin picked up a piece and took a bite, then frowned: "I want to control the sugar content, you know, control the sugar content."

Miss Tingyun rolled her eyes at Xia Lin in a charming manner: "Okay, okay, I get it, I get it. If there is not enough sugar, it will be bland, and if there is too much sugar, it will be too sweet. But it is really hard to please."

Miss Tingyun, once the number one courtesan in Jinling City, even after so many years, is only twenty-four or twenty-five years old now, at the age of blooming. A single roll of her eyes is enough to show her beauty, a charm that others could never learn in their entire lives.

And it was this coquettish roll of the eyes that forced Miss Xuanling's seduction skills to silence. After all, people should have some self-knowledge. Even though she knew that she was quite pretty, compared with this most beautiful courtesan in the world, she might as well go and compete with Xu Shiji in a sand table.

Almost all the advantages were gone, and Miss Xuanling just sat there with a wry smile.

While eating the cake, Xia Lin called her and said, "Let's eat together."

Miss Hanging Bell shook her head and looked very haggard with her head down.

"Which one are you, Fenghuaxueyue?"

"I……"

As soon as the words came out of her mouth, Miss Xuanling was startled. When she looked up again, she saw Xia Lin's half-smile.

"The four wonders of Longxi are wind, flowers, snow and moon. It seems that you, the Yue generation, are proficient in different things from them." Xia Lin sat there and talked freely, not showing any panic at all: "Don't panic, Miss Xuanling, let's have a good chat."

Miss Xuanling smiled helplessly: "Master Xia knew it early on, why bother to play tricks on me?"

"I just wanted to see how good your agents are. Actually, they're not bad. Really, I'm not trying to comfort you, they're really good." Xia Lin nodded and said, "If it were someone else, you would have no problem, but you've run into my trap."

Indeed, if it were anyone else, this pattern would be difficult to resist. A heroic woman with all-round abilities, although she was powerful, she could not defeat the great monk Tianci in martial arts, nor could she outsmart Zhong Nan and Xu Shiji.

But if you say she is weak, she can fight with the giant monk for more than ten rounds, and fight with Xu Shiji three times. It's like Zhou Cang beside Guan Erye. If you take him out alone, you will just say "what kind of general is he", but if you look closely, he can withstand three shots from the angry Zhao Zilong and still go to Guan Erye to complain, and chase Red Hare for 180 miles with a 82-jin crescent-shaped sword.

So, by today's standards, Fenghuaxueyue is really pretty good.

As I said, it's a pity for her that she met someone with the same professional background as her.

"Feng Hua Xue Yue are all assassins. I know who you belong to, so I don't bother to ask. If Miss Xuan Ling wants to leave, you can leave at any time. I won't make things difficult for you."

"You let me go?"

"Why did I hold you down? Am I after your body?" Xia Lin patted the residue on his hands and said, "Actually, I discovered it yesterday, but I think your romantic life is quite interesting. I've met one before, you're Xuan Ling, right? Her name is Hong Xiu."

"She is not a romantic woman, but a low-class thing designed by the Dugu family to imitate us."

"Is there still a chain of contempt in your industry?"

Xia Lin sat there and looked Miss Xuan Ling up and down: "Hey, Miss Xuan Ling, let me ask you a question."

"Excuse me, but I hope the general can also answer my doubts."

Xia Lin nodded: "You say yours first."

Xuan Ling paused for a moment, then asked curiously, "Why did the general agree to let me go? We never thought we could survive after being discovered."

Xia Lin actually laughed at this moment: "Normally, I have to kill you, because it's for deterrence, to prevent you from continuing to try to infiltrate me, but I think it's meaningless. How can you be afraid of death if you don't fear death? And you haven't succeeded in infiltrating yet, so there's no need for me to kill you."

"Isn't it because I'm a woman?" "No, it doesn't matter whether you are a man or a woman. If you cause me to suffer a defeat and lose tens of thousands of brothers, I will definitely peel your skin and sell it for drying." Xia Lin pushed the cakes on the plate to Miss Xuanling. "But what I want to tell you is that your method will not work here. The middle and senior management here have a very strict political review mechanism. You may not understand it, which means that your ancestors for three generations must have detailed records and can be verified. Do you understand what I mean? It's not that Miss Xuanling can accept you just by saying I want to join you."

"But what if I really want to surrender?"

"Then prove yourself." Xia Lin put one hand on the back of the chair and adjusted himself to a comfortable position. "Often people like this need stronger abilities, and they may even be a bit demanding. To be honest, if you can beat that little bald donkey or Xu Shiji today, I can keep you no matter who you are. But I'm sorry, you didn't pass the test."

Miss Xuanling lowered her head and smiled: "Sorry, goodbye."

"Wait, you asked me, but I haven't asked you yet, and you're running away?"

Xia Lin's words stopped Miss Xuanling in her tracks. He raised his chin and said, "Have some tea and some cakes. You are very nervous. Relax a little. It's okay. I am very easy-going."

He pointed at the tea on the table and said, "Tingyun is very good at making tea and pastries. Give it a try."

Xuan Ling would naturally not disobey Xia Lin. After all, what was his status? What was her own status? To be honest, she was already very grateful that Xia Lin promised not to kill her.

After sitting down again and eating something, Xia Lin spoke again: "Come to think of it, you came back intact but didn't complete the mission. Won't your organization blame you?"

"No, because everyone knows that you, General Xia, are not an ordinary person and not someone that can be approached easily."

Xia Lin smiled and shook his head: "It seems that I deliberately let a few in, otherwise I don't know how people outside would demonize me."

At this point, he patted his head and said, "I was so busy chatting that I forgot to tell you something serious. Miss Xuanling, do you owe me a life now?"

Xuan Ling was stunned, and immediately knew what Xia Lin was going to do. She nodded and smiled bitterly, "But if the general wants me to betray, please let me die in a dignified way."

"Oh, we are already in the same business, so we won't let you do this." Xia Lin waved his hand and said, "You have to give an explanation for your mission anyway, so how about you go to Dou Jiande?"

"Dou Jiande."

Xuan Ling's eyes rolled: "General, what you mean is..."

"I asked you to give an explanation to your superiors, and you have to give me an explanation as well, right? I will exchange information with you regularly and ensure that the information I give you is consistent with the accounts, and you need to help me get the information about Dou Jiande, how about that?"

In fact, this transaction was just a standard information exchange, except that Xia Lin was exchanging his own information. With such conditions, Xuan Ling could not refuse.

"it is good."

As expected, she agreed without even thinking too much, and at this moment Xia Lin raised his head and sighed: "Okay, follow my instructions now."

Of course Xia Lin couldn't let her stay with him, so he sent Xuan Ling out. Xuan Ling's report to the higher authorities was that Xia Lin accepted her, but asked her to go and lurk for Dou Jiande.

She can synchronize the information Xia Lin needs to her organization, and she will write an analysis report to the organization based on Xia Lin's needs.

Of course, this analysis report was written by Xia Lin, otherwise it would be very difficult for her to do such a thing. After all, her ability is limited, and if she wrote it randomly, it would easily arouse suspicion.

After making all these arrangements, she left with her group of female heroes early the next morning to join Dou Jiande. Xia Lin didn't tell anyone about this, not even her elder and second uncles.

After learning that Xuan Ling and the others had left, the two brothers-in-law were overjoyed and found Xia Lin to inquire about him.

"Daosheng, what method did you use to get her out of here?"

Now that my brother-in-law knew that his family's reputation could be saved, the muscles on his face relaxed.

"It's nothing, actually. I told her that there was a huge disparity between her status and my second brother's, and that there was no way that a good outcome would be achieved. I used both emotional and logical means to persuade her, and even gave her a full 100,000 taels of silver before she was willing to leave."

"One hundred thousand!?"

The second brother screamed, "That's too much! It's really abominable. If I didn't know how to hit women, I would definitely teach her a lesson."

"That's enough!" The eldest brother-in-law shouted, "It's all your fault. Why don't you learn something else and learn to travel the world? You've caused Daosheng so much trouble."

After scolding his brother, the elder brother-in-law turned to Xia Lin and said, "Don't worry, this matter will not cost you any money. I will pay you the 100,000 taels."

"Oh, no, no. We are all family, why should we be so polite!" Xia Lin waved his hands hurriedly: "No, absolutely not!"
