The poisonous concubine allures the city, the ghost king loves the sky

Chapter 168 Careers
Otherwise, how could Xiao Ziqi trouble the maidservant in Xiao Zhengqi's house?He just couldn't see Xiao Tianrui's preference for Xiao Zhengqi, so he deliberately found fault.

"It's just a maidservant. I think it's better for Ms. An not to interfere in this matter. You have to know your identity. It's just a little higher than those maidservants, but..."

Speaking of this, Xiao Ziqi glanced at Feng Wuxie with malicious intentions, and said obscenely: "If you can make me happy to serve you, once I am happy, maybe you will let her go, Miss An, how do you feel?"

As she said that, she restlessly touched Feng Wuxie's face, but she dodged it calmly.

If it was any other woman, she would definitely be very happy after hearing Xiao Ziqi's words, but unfortunately, what he met was Feng Wuxie.

"I'm sorry, I'm not interested in what you said, but I want to remind you that if the Governor-General knows that someone has ruined his affairs at this time, I think the Governor-General will not be happy."

"Are you threatening me?" Xiao Ziqi narrowed his eyes, and couldn't help but start to look at the woman in front of him again.

If he still only thinks that Feng Wuxie is just an empty vase, then he is very wrong.

This woman is courageous and resourceful, her thoughts are well-organized, she knows what her purpose is, and she is also aware of her current predicament.

Knowing that it was impossible for her to compete with Xiao Ziqi with her own strength, she chose a compromise method, without using a knife or a gun, and wanted to save him from his hands.

Knowing that Xiao Ziqi regarded Xiao Zhengqi as a thorn in his side, Feng Wuxie did not bring out Xiao Zhengqi to suppress him, but directly talked about the martial arts conference.

If someone leaked the wind now and let others hear it, it is inevitable that they will not add fuel and vinegar, and maybe it will reach the ears of the emperor.

If the higher authorities were to pursue it, I'm afraid that the entire Governor's Mansion would be in trouble by then.

The words have come to this point, Feng Wuxie does not intend to waste any more words with Xiao Ziqi, I believe that he has heard what he said just now.

Once Xiao Tianrui wants to abolish the elders and establish the concubine, as long as he makes a big fuss about it, Xiao Ziqi will definitely not be able to please him.

"Why don't you, Eldest Young Master, restrain your brilliance, recruit talented people, and shine in the martial arts conference, so that the Governor-General will admire you?"

Seeing that Xiao Ziqi's heart was shaken, Feng Wuxie struck while the iron was hot and expressed his thoughts.

Sure enough, after hearing Feng Wuxie's words, Xiao Ziqi fell into contemplation, and after Feng Wuxie made such a gesture, his thoughts suddenly broadened.

Xiao Tianrui's preference for Xiao Zhengqi is simply because he loves the house and Wu, and only because of his cheap mother, so he feels ashamed of Xiao Zhengqi.

And what he has done these years has really disappointed Xiao Tianrui, if he does not change Xiao Tianrui's view of him, then his position as the son-in-law is really in jeopardy.

Xiao Ziqi thought for a long time, glanced at Xiaohuan lying on the ground, and finally turned and left without saying a word.

Feng Wuxie was behind him, and said respectfully: "Send off the eldest son."

It wasn't until Xiao Ziqi left that she hurriedly ordered someone to carry Xiaohuan in.

After Feng Wuxie's first aid, the blood from the wound on Xiaohuan's wrist had stopped, she quietly opened her eyes, and saw Feng Wuxie guarding her bedside.

Thinking of his own tragic fate, tears flowed down the line: "Thank you for saving my life, Xiaohuan will never forget it. One day, I will definitely repay the girl."

After speaking, she was about to stand up and thank Feng Wuxie for saving her life, but Feng Wuxie stopped her: "Be careful, your wrist is injured."

Looking at her own wrist that was cut off by Qiqi, Xiaohuan's face showed a trace of grief and indignation, without her hands, she is useless.

Even if the injury is healed, it is impossible for the governor's mansion to accommodate her anymore, and she will inevitably be kicked out of the mansion and live on the streets.

Thinking of this, Xiaohuan cried even more sadly.

Feng Wuxie knew that her heart was miserable, but he could only comfort her first: "As long as people are alive, there is hope. At any time, you should not give up lightly."

Now that there was no one in the room they were in, Xiaohuan looked outside, hesitated to speak, and finally said to Feng Wuxie: "In the backyard of Wangfu, beside the crocodile pond, there is a secret passage."

Feng Wuxie knew how important this clue was to her. She had carefully inspected every place in the mansion, but she still didn't know where the dirty silver was hidden.

Unexpectedly, it turned out to be by the edge of the crocodile pond.

No wonder I saw many big boxes coming in and out that day, but they disappeared in the blink of an eye.

No one would pass there easily, and with the crocodiles in the pool, no one dared to approach it.

Sure enough, it is a place that is quite secretive and safe enough.

It's just that he doesn't know where the secret road will lead to, and where Xiao Tianrui will send the dirty silver.

"You have to rot these words in your stomach, and you can't tell anyone else again." Feng Wuxie said softly to Xiaohuan.

Xiaohuan nodded, with tears in her eyes: "If I didn't know the importance of this matter, even if I was killed, I wouldn't say it."

After a pause, he continued: "I know that the girl is definitely not an ordinary person. I only hope that one day, I can kill that thief and avenge us victims."

Feng Wuxie patted Xiaohuan's shoulder, and didn't answer her directly, but just let her rest at ease.

He also added sleeping medicine to Xiaohuan's decoction, and after letting her drink it, Feng Wuxie withdrew from her room.

Now Feng Wuxie only hopes that Xiao Ziqi can really listen to her words, so that Jun Yeli and the others will have a chance to sneak into the Governor's Mansion.

In the martial arts conference, Xiao Tianrui was killed in one fell swoop.

At this time in Ningcheng, people from all corners of the country have already rushed in and occupied the major inns in the city.

Among them was a carriage of a group of people who stayed in an inconspicuous inn.

It's just because they were dressed so poorly that even the clerk in the shop ignored them. The four of them actually only needed two ordinary rooms, and even the usual food was the simplest.

At first glance, he looked like a boy in his early years. He did not know where he learned art, and he also wanted to come to this year's martial arts conference to show his face.

It's just that this martial arts conference, how can it be so easy to get involved?
Reputable sects in the Jianghu have already received invitations. These invitations are hard to find, even if you have money, it is difficult to get them.

Jun Yeli and his party sat silently on the cold bench, gnawing on hard steamed buns, listening to the messages coming from all directions.

It is said that the inn is a magical place, as long as you have the heart, you can hear what you want to know.

The four of them had a plate of hard steamed buns and two plates of pickles, and they ate carelessly.

"Hey, have you heard? The second son of the governor's mansion was rescued by a genius doctor. He was a terminally ill person, and now he can get out of bed and walk around."

"What kind of miracle doctor? It is obviously the concubine that the governor married to the second son. I was so happy, but I didn't expect that this woman would be able to heal the second son."

"It's really miraculous, miraculous."

"It's exciting to watch now. The Eldest Young Master is recruiting talents. Why don't you try your luck? Maybe you can really be selected?"

The big men at the next tables drank too much and spit out a lot of information inadvertently.

Jun Yeli and the others looked at each other, and a tacit understanding was reached in the eye contact.

This must be the news from Feng Wuxie, she is in the governor's mansion.

Several people left one after another, and not far after they walked out of the inn, they heard the group of men who were chatting in the restaurant just now yelling.

In the blink of an eye, all the stools fell apart, several people lay crookedly on the ground, and all the tables, chairs and benches were damaged.

The man with the wine gourd hanging around his waist looked back curiously, and saw the waiter dragging them to ask for compensation.

The man shook his head and smiled at the back of the man in black in front of him.

They just chatted and said a few things that shouldn't be said, but that guy was so stingy that he knocked everyone to the ground.

A few people stepped out of the restaurant, and after walking not far, they saw a notice board not far ahead, with a list of recruiting talents posted on it.

There was already a circle of people around, whispering around the notice, and many people had already flocked to the registration place.

With sharp eyes and quick hands, Du Chun stretched out his hand to grab a man who was running forward: "Hey, brother, please ask, which young master is this recruiting?"

The little brother said impatiently: "Master Xiao, alas, don't drag me."

Before he finished speaking, he broke away from Du Chun and ran away.

Du Chun spread his hands and shrugged his shoulders: "The four of us, we can't all go in. If anything happens, there must be someone outside to respond."

When he said this, he looked at Gong Moran and Jun Yeli.

The two of them are both delicate and expensive, and they have no status. They have never worked in the lower classes, and they can't do the job of serving people.

Right now, he and Bai Xiao are the most suitable ones to go in. The two of them often walk in the rivers and lakes, and they have been in contact with people of all kinds, so it is not easy to reveal their secrets.

On this matter, Jun Yeli and Gong Moran had no objection, they were indeed not suitable, so it was settled.

Jun Yeli and Gong Moran met outside, while Bai Xiao and Du Chun went to the registration place, preparing to sneak in as martial artists.

The two changed their expressions, and their faces looked no different from ordinary people, but they were a little different in their aura.

The place to sign up is set in a courtyard of the Governor's Mansion. There are layers of screening, first looking at background and identity, then character and martial arts. If someone is found to be cheating, he will be sent to jail.

A place like the Governor's Mansion was not accessible to ordinary people. Now that Mr. Xiao wanted to recruit talented people, those people who had no ambitions in the world all sought them out.

She hoped that she would be favored by Mr. Xiao, and she would be on the rise ever since.

After several layers of screening, there were only more than ten people left in the end, and Bai Xiao and Du Chun were naturally selected.

A group of people followed the captain of the waiting guard into the second courtyard, stood in a row, and waited for Mr. Xiao to ask questions in person.
