The queen of the last days became a maid and just wanted to lie down

Zhao Xi said, "That's not what I meant. I think the amount of money is really huge. If you can't deal with Yuan Qingzong, even if you get the money, Yuan Qingzong will catch up with you. In the end, when they besiege you, won't the money fall into their hands?"

Xu Yao kept saying "Pooh, Pooh, Pooh". "What nonsense! Why don't you say that with that money, I can recruit soldiers and horses, and keep a group of people under my control, so that I can easily fight against Yuan Qingzong."

Zhao Xi remained silent, and Xu Yao thought she really didn't want to give him money. "You won't break your promise, will you? I've done so many things for you, and you still doubt me?"

But Zhao Xi said: "You can't do it."

"What can't be done?"

"Although you always talk about fighting and killing, being ruthless and righteous, and saying that if you don't work for yourself, you will be punished by heaven and earth. But I can see that you would rather take risks yourself than take risks with other people's lives. You are different from those people in Yuan Qingzong. They can keep spending money to buy people and train them into murderous weapons one after another, but you can't. You can't be so cold-blooded and ruthless."

"Why can't I do this?"

Xu Yao snorted coldly, but did not refute further.

There is a saying that a kind person cannot command an army, and there is some truth to this.

She had been in the apocalypse for a long time, and the most cruel thing she had done was to kill all those who wanted to poison her.

But her bottom line is to win her own life without sacrificing other people's lives.

If it really comes to this, then what is the difference between her and those selfish, vicious fools that she once hated?

Xu Yao scratched her head, not knowing whether this kind of conscience was the result of her parents' good education or because she had lived in a peaceful world for a period of time and was therefore deeply tamed by the environment there and would not do anything without bottom line and vicious.

If you can't figure it out, don't think about it. Don't make things difficult for yourself.

Xu Yao asked Pei Shuo to practice on his own and go back to rest when he had finished practicing.

She closed the door and went to sleep, then had a hazy dream.

I always see a lantern in my dreams, and there is a strange mark on it.

She followed the lantern all night long, and then heard a rooster crowing. When she woke up, she thought the dream was so strange, as if she were on the road to the underworld, with someone holding a lantern to lead the way. Was she going to die?

The more Xu Yao thought about it, the more strange it felt. He wanted to ask Zhao Xi, but Zhao Xi said, "It's just a dream. Are you thinking too much?"

Xu Yao: "If there weren't some strange and bizarre thing in the world, how could I have come into your body? I can't get rid of the fact that I share a body with you."

When she said that, Zhao Xi couldn't refute it.

Xu Yao couldn't figure it out, but the pattern kept flashing in her mind.

She simply drew the logo with pen and paper. When Pei Shuo got up in the morning to make breakfast, he saw his master sitting in a rocking chair under a big tree, holding something in his hand and looking at it.

Pei Shuo came over: "Master, what are you looking at?"

"I had a dream last night. In my dream, I saw a lantern with this logo on it. Have you ever seen this thing?"

Pei Shuo took the drawing and was stunned. "Isn't this the family emblem of the Pingxi Marquisate? Master, why did you draw this?"

Xu Yao was surprised: "You said this is the family emblem of the Pingxi Marquis Mansion?"

Pei Shuo thought about it and shook his head: "No, this can't be said to belong to the Pingxi Marquis's Mansion. It should be said that only Princess Yanghe would use the logo."

"Is this the family emblem of Princess Yanghe's mother's family?"

Pei Shuo was not sure, and Xu Yao didn't understand why he dreamed of this.

Could it be that it was because I broke into the Pingxi Marquis’ Mansion last night and happened to see it and had a dream all night?

Pei Shuo looked at it for a long time, "Master, do you think this thing is similar to the symbol of Yuan Qing Sect?"

They were all circular logos, and Xu Yao thought they were similar.

Pei Shuo took a pen and paper and drew the logo of the Yuan Qingzong killer organization. The logo of Yuan Qingzong looked like a flower.

However, the symbol of Princess Yanghe looks like a word.

"How are the two similar?"

Pei Shuo pointed at Princess Yanghe's family emblem and said, "Master, take a closer look. If this character is shrinking inward, is it hidden in this flower?"

Xu Yao did as he was told and turned the drawing over.

The graphic of this character is indeed very similar to the character in Yuan Qingzong's Huali.

This can't be a coincidence.

Zhao Xi said, "Could it be that Sister is reminding us?"

Xu Yao found it very mysterious, but she herself was a very mysterious existence.

It seems that she needs to investigate this Princess Yanghe.

Xu Yao asked Pei Shuo to make breakfast first, so that he would be in the mood to think after eating.

Pei Shuo was quick and agile. He quickly prepared the soy milk and fried dough sticks, and even fried two meat patties.

After Xu Yao had eaten, he asked Pei Shuo if there was any way to let Pei Yi know of his existence without seeing her.

It was impossible to send the letter. If Pei Yi was in Pingxi Marquis's Mansion, sending the letter would be dangerous to her. If there was no one, who would the letter be sent to?

Xu Yao could just rush in to find the person, but if he wanted to bring the person out like this, it would be inconvenient for Pei Yi to move.

As I said, Xu Yao can escape on horseback.

Pei Shuo is now capable enough, but if two people insist on taking Pei Yi away, won’t they be worried day and night?

Xu Yao didn't want to do that unless it was absolutely necessary.

You can just take the normal route and leave Pingxi Marquis' Mansion. Why make such a fuss and attract so much attention?

Pei Shuo thought for a long time: "When my mother was alive, she always liked to make a kind of rice candy. My sister wants to eat this kind of rice candy when she is sick. Why don't I go back and make some rice candy, disguise as a peddler and sell it around the Pingxi Marquis's mansion, maybe I can attract my sister."

This method is a little slower, but relatively safe.

Xu Yao nodded in agreement and went out to buy materials for him.

Pei Shuo tried several times, and when it was dark, the rice candy was ready.

I couldn't wait to try it and was quite surprised, "I didn't expect you had this skill."

These days, Pei Shuo gave her several surprises.

I thought he had learned how to roast rabbit for Liu Moyan, which was his limit. I didn't expect that he had learned how to cook during this period. As for the rice candy, it was another new surprise.

Some people are born cooks. They can learn something that others have worked hard to learn but still cannot do well, but they can easily match others' countless efforts.

Sure enough, hard work is nothing compared to talent.

Pei Shuo ate it twice, but was still a little dissatisfied, "It's not as good as my mother's. If my mother were here..."

He paused and said nothing more.

Xu Yao did not dare to ask more questions. He just ate two more candies and said that his cooking skills were already very good.

On the second day, Pei Shuo got ready, disguised himself, left South City, and went to the back door of Pingxi Marquis' Mansion, where he pretended to be hawking things on the street.

When he arrived at the back door of Pingxi Marquis's Mansion, he stopped and shouted, "Selling rice candy, selling rice candy, fresh and delicious rice candy."

The side door was soon opened and several young and pretty girls came out.

When I heard someone selling rice candy, I hurried over to ask him how much was the rice candy?

Pei Shuo said it was five cents a pack. The girls thought it was not expensive, so they each paid for a pack. After tasting it, they found it delicious. They had never tried it before, so they bought a few more packs.
