The Savage Lady Wants to Kill Me! Reborn on the Path of Cultivation

Duan Tianyang naturally knew what Yi Shuirou was thinking.

Although he didn't care in his heart, he still maintained a serious attitude on the surface and responded: "I will keep the princess's teachings in mind."

Yi Shuirou looked at him deeply, and then asked: "You said that your subordinates were trapped in Tianhu City. Do you need my help?"

Duan Tianyang bowed respectfully and said, "Thank you for your kindness, my lady. I can handle my own affairs, so you don't need to worry about it. Besides, you have many important matters to attend to, and I don't want to delay your trip."

Caiyun, who was standing nearby, couldn't help but roll her eyes and whispered, "What an ungrateful guy."

You are the one who talks the most!

Although her voice was soft, everyone present could hear it clearly.

Lu Jingyuan and Hua Duoer glared at her, but Duan Tianyang didn't care at all. He felt that arguing with a maid would make him look narrow-minded.

Yi Shuirou did not comment further on the matter, and instead asked, "I heard that you opened up a piece of land in Xifan Country. Is that true?"

Duan Tianyang frowned slightly, thinking: You know this too? It seems that in front of her, he has no secrets at all. Yi Shuirou knows everything about him. This feeling is not good!

He replied: "The land of Xiguan is barren and arable land is very scarce. But the land of Xifan is completely different. The land there is fertile, so I did open up a piece of land for military farming in Xifan."

Yi Shuirou smiled leisurely and continued, "You are indeed expanding the territory for the imperial court. However, if you cultivate land in Xifan, will the tribes in Xifan think that we are deliberately provoking them?"

Duan Tianyang said solemnly: "If the Western Fan tribes really thought this was a threat or provocation, they would have taken action long ago. But in fact, they have not interfered with it."

From ancient times to the present, money makes the world go round!

Duan Tianyang successfully developed the Qinba tribe and turned it into a key trading place between the Divine Realm and the Western Regions. Merchants from the Western Regions made a lot of money from this.

Because these tribal chiefs relied on the financial support of merchants, they often adopted a tolerant attitude towards Duan Tianyang's various initiatives in the Qinba tribe, neither obstructing nor interfering.

Yi Shuirou nodded slightly and praised: "It seems that you have handled the relationship with Xifan with ease. I don't need to worry too much about this."

Then she yawned softly and said tiredly, "I'm tired."

Duan Tianyang heard this and bowed respectfully, saying, "Then please go to bed early, my lady. I will take my leave now. In addition, just in case, I will send a team of soldiers to Fengxian Town to ensure the safety of the lady."

Yi Shuirou smiled and waved her hand, saying: "With Lord Duan here, I feel at ease. Why should we mobilize so many troops?" Her tone seemed to reveal a hint of reluctance to Duan Tianyang to leave.

Duan Tianyang looked at her with doubts in his eyes and asked, "What do you mean, Princess?"

Yi Shuirou replied calmly: "There are many empty rooms here, you can stay here tonight. We will set off together tomorrow morning."

Duan Tianyang sighed inwardly. He proposed to send someone to escort her only out of courtesy. Yi Shuirou was a martial arts expert, so why did she need anyone else to protect her?

I don’t know why Yi Shuirou wanted to keep me. Is it because I’m handsome?

Duan Tianyang did not dare to ask more questions, but just bowed his hands in thanks: "Thank you very much for your hospitality, Princess."

Yi Shuirou smiled, her eyes moved over him, then she turned and walked towards the guest room with Caiyun and Caiyue.

After the three men left, several burly men in black came in one after another and quietly carried away the bodies on the ground.

Lu Jingyuan leaned close to Duan Tianyang and whispered, "Brother Tian, ​​are we really going to spend the night here?"

Duan Tianyang nodded and responded: "Since the princess has said so, let's sleep here for one night. Anyway, we originally planned to stay in Fengxian Town, and we are currently in need of a place to stay."

After hearing this, Lu Jingyuan whispered in Duan Tianyang's ear: "Brother Tian, ​​I'm worried that there will be trouble tonight."

Duan Tianyang patted Lu Jingyuan's shoulder and comforted her, "Don't worry too much. Just sleep peacefully tonight. With the help of the master, the princess, we will be safe."

Lu Jingyuan glanced at Duan Tianyang, wanting to say something but stopping himself. What he was most worried about was this unpredictable princess.

She let them stay here for the night, but who knows what kind of plan she had in mind?

What if she intends to harm us? Her extraordinary martial arts skills are probably hard to match even if the three of us join forces.

However, Duan Tianyang didn't care about it. Nowadays, rebellions are frequent in Xiguan, and the court is unable to deal with them. It needs someone to hold high the flag of the court here.

Judging from the current situation, there is no other more suitable candidate than myself.

Furthermore, Yi Shuirou’s martial arts skills are so powerful that if she really wants to take action, she can do it now. Why wait until late at night?

Duan Tianyang stretched lazily and said calmly: "After these days of long journey, I believe you are also very tired. Take a shower and go to bed early, because we have to travel tomorrow."

Lu Jingyuan and Hua Duoer exchanged glances, with some confusion and worry on their faces. How could Brother Tian be so calm and composed when being in the same room with such a treacherous and unpredictable person like Yi Shuirou?

Yi Shuirou returned to her room, and the two maids, Caiyun and Caiyue, came forward and poured tea for her while carefully asking, "Princess, what do you think of Duan Tianyang?"

She picked up the teacup, savoured the aroma, and said slowly: "This man may seem cynical, but he is actually unruly and difficult to tame. He is definitely not someone who is easy to control. If the court wants to use him, it may not be easy."

Caiyue and Caiyun's faces suddenly changed color when they heard this. Caiyun even said in a cold voice: "If this is the case, why don't you make a decision early and get rid of this person to prevent him from becoming a big problem in the future."

Yi Shuirou shook her head gently. If she had any other choice, she would not want to keep someone like Duan Tianyang.

Because currently only Duan Tianyang's faction in Xiguan is still clearly under the banner of the imperial court. The other factions are either rebels or forces with wavering positions and their own troops.

She sighed quietly and said, "Whether Duan Tianyang will become a serious threat to us is still unknown. But one thing is certain, if we get rid of him now, Xiguan will collapse completely. Therefore, the court needs someone like him in Xiguan."

Night falls, the stars twinkle, and the whole night is silent.

The next morning, before the first ray of sunlight had completely covered the earth, Duan Tianyang got up together with Lu Jingyuan and Hua Duoer.

He walked to Yi Shuirou's door and was about to raise his hand to knock on it, but the door suddenly opened and Caiyun walked out.

She saw Duan Tianyang standing outside the door, frowned slightly, and asked in confusion: "What are you doing here?"
