The Siu Hui ignored Li Kexu for many days. When he finally agreed to meet with Huo Qingtong, Cheng Yuanyuan had already memorized the formula for the 'Hibiscus Golden Needle'. She was able to use the flying needle, but her strength was still far from enough.

She pulled out the golden needle from the crooked tree in the courtyard and sighed. It was less than ten meters away, and she couldn't even penetrate three inches into the tree. With this level of skill, she could only deal with a small thief.

Zhang Zhaozhong said that her current kung fu was enough for self-defense. If she wanted to practice the flying needle to perfection and turn it into a weapon that could kill without blinking, she would have to work harder. It seemed that she could only find more time to practice diligently … As Cheng Yuanyuan was pondering, she suddenly heard hurried footsteps outside the courtyard. It was Li Yuanzhi, who had come to report.

Li Yuanzhi followed Li Kexu and Huo Qingtong into the General's Mansion. Because she was too lazy to entertain the Siu Hui, she hid outside the parlor and eavesdropped.

Unexpectedly, Huo Qingtong and the Siu Hui didn't see eye to eye. Before they could say more than a few words, they began to quarrel with each other.

Cheng Yuanyuan was also anxious. Her plan was to let Huo Qingtong hold on tightly to Chen Jialuo without the burden of her clansmen. Then, she would let Chen Jialuo stay away from Princess Xiangxiang Beila. This way, the transformation plan would succeed.

However, if Huo Qingtong didn't have any burden, the Hui Tribe wouldn't suffer from the chaos of war. Therefore, two days ago, she had been trying to persuade Zalantai to persuade the Siu Hui not to act rashly against the Hui Tribe.

Zalantai had clearly agreed. Didn't it work?

"I'll go find my eldest brother!" Cheng Yuanyuan finished speaking and ran to the stable.

At this time, Zalantai was brushing the horses in the stable.

Cheng Yuanyuan found him. Seeing that he was very leisurely, she couldn't help but angrily ask, "Eldest brother, how did you persuade Amar? When he saw Huo Qingtong, he lost his temper."

Zalantai looked at her in confusion, "I did as you said. Amar, as the Dingbian General, didn't need to lower himself to the Hui Tribe's level. They just happened to be in a natural disaster, so they could be exempted from half of this year's taxes.

Moreover, Zhang Zhaozhong is is in the mansion, so it's not good to argue in front of him to avoid the Emperor's ears. "

After all, she's an outsider. Amar has been in the war for many years.. can't be wrong, he's an. He's a man's.. a. a..., you. Although's to be to's to admire, she is to's, she ''s's, she is is is is to be a female outsider......... Is to to be to's............. to be, Is.........

. You should worry less and think about what kind of future husband you want to find. "

"If you and Amar are not good, how can I find a satisfactory husband?"

Cheng Yuanyuan rolled her eyes at him, "Although Amar's previous expedition to Zunggar was brilliant, he killed too many people, so it's inevitable that he would be criticized by the officials. Although the Emperor has never reprimanded Amar, his actions always go against the Emperor's policy of 'governing with leniency and leniency.'"

Zalantai was stunned when he heard this. He said in surprise, "Jianing, where did you hear these words from?"

"I …" Cheng Yuanyuan was suddenly at a loss for words. She quickly changed her mind, "When I was learning kung fu from Zhang Zhaozhong a few days ago, I heard him talk about the imperial court … Aiya, big brother, you should go and persuade Amar. He's guarding the northwest. No matter how he treats the returning troops, he has to understand the Emperor's intentions first."

Although Zalantai had never rebelled against Amar, he listened to Jianing's words and went to the reception pavilion in the front yard to receive guests.

However, their Amar was in a fit of anger. Although he didn't punish Huo Qingtong, he 'sent' her out of the General's Mansion …

…

Under the sun, the streets were bustling with activity.

Huo Qingtong looked at the peddlers and the locals who lived and worked in peace. She felt both envious and tired. If only they could be like this when they returned to the army.

She couldn't help but feel sad when she thought of the people who were suffering from taxes. Although Li Kexu promised to do his best, she didn't trust the Siu Hui.

Huo Qingtong sighed in annoyance. She was about to find a place to sit down and rest when someone suddenly patted her shoulder. She turned around and squeezed out a smile, "It's you, Yuanzhi." Then, she saw that there was a girl standing next to her. She couldn't help but be surprised.

"Bronze Sister, are you alright?

I chased after you because I wanted to see you and introduce a friend to you. "

Li Yuanzhi smiled as she pulled Cheng Yuanyuan to her side, "She's a friend of mine from the General's Mansion. She's called Jianing."

Cheng Yuanyuan imitated the jianghu people and cupped her hands, "The famous Jadeite Yellow Shirt. Nice to meet you!"

Huo Qingtong looked at the innocent girl in front of her, but still asked hesitantly, "You're someone from the General Siu Hye's Mansion?"

"I … am a servant girl from the General's Mansion." Cheng Yuanyuan lied, making Li Yuanzhi almost laugh out loud.

Huo Qingtong relaxed her brows and smiled, "I'm Huo Qingtong. Nice to meet you."

Cheng Yuanyuan immediately grabbed her hand as if she had seen a relative, "Bronze Sister, I've heard Yuanzhi talk a lot about you. I admire you very much."

Huo Qingtong was a bit overwhelmed by the other's excessive enthusiasm. Li Yuanzhi saw this and pulled the two of them into a small tavern. She had the waiter brew a pot of tea and ordered a few dishes of snacks.

However, after chatting for a while, when Huo Qingtong mentioned her worries about returning to the Ministry, the small tavern instantly quieted down. Five people walked in, all of them dressed strangely and had frightening faces. One look and you could tell they weren't good people.

Cheng Yuanyuan had always cherished her life. Moreover, her injuries would consume her strength, so she had to replenish her nutrient solution. If she was unlucky and died, then not only would she not receive the reward, she might also be demoted due to the loss of experience.

"We … should we go somewhere else?" She hurriedly asked in a small voice.

Huo Qingtong sized them up and was about to nod when Li Yuanzhi curled her lips. She thought to herself that with her status as Jianing Gege, Xining Prefecture would allow them to do whatever they wanted. There was no need to be afraid of a few ugly people.

"Why should we leave? What's there to be afraid of?"

As soon as she spoke, she immediately attracted the attention of the 'monsters', especially the one with the steel fork in his hand. He had already taken the lead and walked over. "You three young ladies must be lonely. Why don't you play with me?" As he spoke, his evil claws stretched out towards Huo Qingtong.

Huo Qingtong unsheathed her sword and stabbed it towards the opponent's face. Li Yuanzhi, who didn't mind making things worse, followed closely behind and also unsheathed her sword … Cheng Yuanyuan hid at the side and was dazzled. She originally thought that with their high martial arts, at least they wouldn't be at a disadvantage. However, she never expected that the five people were not ordinary people. Huo Qingtong and Li Yuanzhi were no match for them at all!

With Cheng Yuanyuan's little martial arts, she didn't know whether to stay or run. Suddenly, she saw Huo Qingtong suddenly kick the table away. She took the opportunity to scatter a handful of Hibiscus Gold Needles and shouted, "Run!" The three of them rushed out of the door.

The five monsters chased relentlessly. Li Yuanzhi saw that this wasn't a solution and anxiously said, "Let's split up and run. Bronze Sister and I will lead them away. Jianing, you find a place to hide first!"

As soon as she finished speaking, the two beside her had already flown up the house … Cheng Yuanyuan watched them run away but didn't dare to stop. She only hoped that she could use the people on the street as a cover to escape as soon as possible.

She ran for a while in a panic and saw that the road ahead was getting wider and there were fewer and fewer people. She should not be far from the General's Mansion. Unexpectedly, a strong gust of wind blew over her head. She subconsciously stopped abruptly. Ten steps ahead of her stood a burly man with a full beard. He was clearly one of the Five Freaks.

"Little girl, let's see where you can run to!"

The man grabbed Cheng Yuanyuan with a big hand. When he was about to grab her shoulder, he was unexpectedly knocked away by a fan in a flash.

An elegant young man in a plain long gown landed lightly. Then he closed his fan and started to fight with the bearded man.

Cheng Yuanyuan saw that the young man in a long gown's moves were neat and skillful. Her wildly beating heart finally calmed down. She gasped on the side and sighed that she was lucky to meet a hero who stood up for injustice.

The fight became more and more fierce. The people on the street all ran away.

"Sister, don't be afraid. My young master is here. It will be fine." Suddenly, there was a teenager who followed her. He looked to be thirteen or fourteen years old and was very clever.

Cheng Yuanyuan kept nodding and looked at the teenager sincerely. "Since your young master is so powerful and this man has four helpers to chase after my two sisters, why don't …"

Before she finished her words, two figures suddenly flew out of the restaurant on the street and stood in the middle of the street. One of them was not tall and had an ordinary appearance. He held a long knife in his hand. The other one was handsome and heroic. He held a pair of hooks in his hand.

"An elegant scholar and a young attendant … I think the one who is fighting should be our young master." The short man looked certain. "Ninth brother, you have been yelling that you are bored all the way. Why don't you go and help?"

"Seventh brother said it is our young master. It must be him."

After saying that, the other person suddenly raised his hooks and instantly became a daredevil. He jumped into the fight like a cheetah out of the cage.

At first, Cheng Yuanyuan didn't know who the strange group was. When she heard their conversation, she immediately became sensitive. Could it be that the young man in a long gown was Chen Jialuo?!

As for the other two, could it be that the first group who came to take the dragon's head were 'Wu Zhuge' Xu Tianhong and 'Nine-Lives Leopard' Wei Chunhua?
