Master of Fast Transmigration, put down the knife

Chapter 60

After a night of chaotic fighting, Yuyang finally calmed down.The exhausted defenders finally had time to rest, and the panic-stricken civilians also went back to sleep peacefully.

Ye Chenyu also lived in the house arranged by Gao Wenbin, and Xie Qun and Ye Xuan were placed in the room next to her.

Naturally, Ye Xuan had nothing to worry about. The child saw a clean and soft quilt covering him, so he threw himself on the bed without hesitation.

Then he was held down by Ye Chenyu and thrown into the hot water bucket.Ye Chenyu has been in the mission world for a long time, and she doesn't have any obsession with cleanliness, but she really can't bear Ye Xuan's muddy body.

Raising a child is really too troublesome, Ye Chenyu thought.But looking at Ye Xuan who was constantly thumping in the bucket, a long memory suddenly appeared in her mind.

It's also a child as old as Ye Xuan, splashing in the river in groups of three and four, watching her from a distance and starting to call elder sister.

Ye Chenyu lowered her eyes slightly, this was really a long memory, so long that she thought she would never remember it again.

The vague memory disappeared in a flash, and Ye Chenyu turned his head slightly, looking at the gaze that had been staring at him.Xie Qun was holding on to the door frame, staring at her without blinking.

Ye Chenyu looked at him and said, "You want to wash too?"

Xie Qun was taken aback, pursed his lips and said, "I can wash myself."

Ye Chenyu didn't care about him anymore, and went out to return to her room.When he walked to the door, Xie Qun, who had been silent all this time, suddenly said, "Why did you arrest me?" If you don't like him taking human life as a stepping stone, just kill him or throw him into the Xingjia army .

But she didn't kill him, and she didn't let him go. Instead, she brought him by her side, which was more like saving his life - if she left him where he was, he would also be chased by the Xingjia army on the street.

But what's the use of grabbing him?
The girl stopped when she heard the words, but did not answer.

This was almost the expected silence, Xie Qun was a little disappointed, but couldn't help thinking about it.She was going to kill him, but the knife was already on his neck, why did she let him go?
Because he is a child, remember her brother?

With her back to Xie Qun, Ye Chenyu, who looked cold but was in deep thought: She seemed to have no idea how to deal with Xie Qun.After finding out that it was the target of the mission, he just stayed there.

Forget it, Ye Chenyu habitually gave up thinking, and raised it with Ye Xuan first.

Xie Qun didn't wait for an answer for a long time, his expression became silent, and he nodded: "I see."

Ye Chenyu turned her head and glanced at him lightly, then walked straight away.If you know it, don't you need her to say it?
system:【? ? ? 】

[Why don't you ask him what he knows? 】

Ye Chenyu: [Isn't it just a matter of course? 】

System: […] The expression of the task object is obviously something else that I made up in my head, right?

After Ye Chenyu left, Xie Qun leaned against the door frame, glanced coldly at Ye Xuan who was playing with water in the bucket, and after a while he went to boil hot water to wash himself.

One night passed, and when the next day was three poles high, there was no sound outside.Not long after, the courtyard where Ye Chenyu lived began to make noise.

Ye Chenyu, who had been meditating all night, slowly opened her eyes, pulled out a new dress from the crack in the space amidst the system's complaints, changed into it, washed her face and rinsed her mouth.

When everything was done, there was a knock on the door.

Ye Chenyu walked over to open the door, and saw that Gu Zhi had changed into another suit, followed by Gao Wenbin and several servants.

Gu Zhi bowed to her, and respectfully said: "Master Goddess, the breakfast is ready. After you and the two young masters eat it, I will follow you to Huainan."

Ye Chenyu nodded, then realized something was wrong: "I'll wait?"

Gu Zhi still bowed his head, looking very humble: "Yes, the [-] defenders and more than [-] people in Yuyang County are willing to follow the goddess to Huainan."

Ye Chenyu looked at him for a while, then looked sideways at Gao Wenbin: "I just need a groom." Why does she need so many people?If you walk slowly, you will not be able to support yourself.

Ye Chenyu has a very clear understanding of herself, raising two children is already the biggest trouble she can bear.

Gao Wenbin was very embarrassed, of course he knew that he was forcibly relying on Ye Chenyu.But……

Gu Zhi's words from last night resurfaced in his ears again: "The Xingjia army is defeated, and Xinghua is dead, which can deter the surrounding forces. But this deterrence is only temporary, and someone will come to test it again soon. Our real strength is very strong. It will be exposed soon. It is a good way to take refuge in other forces, but who is willing to take over so many refugees? The people in Yuyang can’t afford to eat, who wants to take care of them?”

"Only by following Miss Ye can there be a glimmer of hope."

Of course he himself didn't care, the soldier should die on the battlefield and return with his body shrouded in horse leather.But what to do with so many people in Yuyang?What the rebel army lacks most is food and grass, where will food be allocated to feed these common people.

Gao Wenbin gritted his teeth, and said with a red face, "There are many bandits along the way to Huainan. We can escort Goddess there."

Ye Chenyu looked at him, and said slowly: "I don't seem to have said that..." She moved her eyes away from Gao Wenbin and focused on Luo Guzhi.

Obviously there was no killing intent, but Gu Zhi felt that his body was as heavy as a weight, and beads of sweat the size of a bean sprouted from the corner of his forehead.

The girl's voice was cold and steady: "I'm not a good person."

Gu Zhi's right shoulder sank, and the long knife was unsheathed and rested firmly on his neck.I don't know if it was because of fear, or because the glare of the blade under the sunlight was too dazzling, Gu Zhi felt dizzy and his hands and feet trembled for a moment.

Even so, he has maintained his posture of bowing and saluting without moving, and the words in his mouth are clear and powerful: "[-] defenders and more than [-] people in Yuyang County are willing to follow Goddess."

He stayed in Yuyang, partly because of Gao Wenbin's intention to persuade his friends to join the Ming Lord, and partly because of avoiding disaster.Compared with the real literati, he is greedy for life and afraid of death. He never thought of saving the people and refugees in Yuyang.In troubled times, it is the best policy to be wise and protect yourself.

However, Gu Zhi closed his eyes, if he really saw what happened to these refugees, how could he only care about protecting himself?

"Gu Zhi!" Gao Wenbin shouted eagerly, and then turned to Ye Chenyu, "Miss Ye, we shouldn't..."

Ye Chenyu didn't listen to what he said, but quietly looked at the young man under his knife.His back was straight, seemingly fearless, but his hands and feet trembled slightly, and his heart was beating violently.

He was obviously terrified to death, and he would give in easily before, but now he refuses to let go even a single step.

Ye Chenyu's expression remained unchanged, and he gently pressed down on his wrist.

The blade cut through the skin, the young man's body trembled, and his heartbeat almost stopped.

At this time, there was a messy sound coming out of the courtyard door.

　I'm probably about to write a slow passage.
