After dressing up as a stepmother, I transformed the whole family into working in the fields

Qin Yao asked tentatively: "If the general didn't refuse what I just said, does it count as he agreed?"

Mu Ling raised an eyebrow, "You are so capable, then help me kill two people."

Qin Yao was a little surprised, but immediately reacted and wanted to bargain, "One."

Mu Ling stood up and stretched out his palm towards her, "Okay."

Qin Yao slapped her hands together and said, "Deal!"

Finally he breathed a sigh of relief.

But she was very curious as to whose life was worth five hundred taels of silver.

Mu Ling pulled out a portrait from a pile of documents and handed it to Qin Yao. The painting showed a man with a round face, and it read: Guo Lin, owner of Jingyun Trading Company.

Hmm. If you don’t know him, you can kill him.

As for why Mu Ling wanted to kill this person and why he didn't choose to do it himself, Qin Yao was very professional and didn't care at all.

Get the details and leave.

"Remember to leave the door open for me tonight."

Mu Ling frowned suspiciously, what do you mean? Is she so confident that she can kill someone tonight?

Unfortunately, the person had already gone away, and Mu Ling had no chance to ask further questions. She called a female soldier and asked them to patrol more tonight to leave the door open for someone.

This time the Guards came to Zijin Mansion, not to give Mrs. Qi a New Year's gift. The most important task was to deal with the traitors.

If you dare to betray your master, you will die.

But it is not that easy to do things beautifully without causing any stain on her Highness.

Mu Ling originally wanted the He family, the largest local parent, to take action, but the conditions have not yet been reached.

This couple wants the benefits of being the eldest princess, but they are reluctant to give up their children. They both want and want, how can there be such a good thing in this world!

On the other hand, the little girl from the He family is indeed good. His Highness likes smart children. She is not afraid that this little girl is calculating or ambitious. She is just afraid that she is a fool who does not know how to fight or resist and cannot cope with the situation in the capital.

Before Qin Yao came today, Mu Ling was still thinking about whether to send his subordinates to personally deal with Guo Lin, the scoundrel.

Although doing so will give the opponent a handle, but compared to the threat posed by the opponent's continued survival, if the two powers are lesser, it is naturally more secure to do it personally.

But now this hot potato has been taken over by an unrelated person, Qin Yao. Mu Ling thought, no matter whether it succeeds or not, it will never be a loss, so let her wait and see.

Having just received a life order in her hand, Qin Yao returned to the inn as if she was fine and had a sumptuous dinner with Liu Ji, who had not been out all day.

She was stuck in her mouth, and the food in the inn was not as good as she wanted. Liu Ji, who had not been in the kitchen for a long time, rolled up his sleeves and borrowed the kitchen stove to cook her a dinner to her liking.

There was still physical work to do in the evening, so Qin Yao deliberately ate two more bowls of rice - not because the food was too fragrant and she couldn't control it!

After the meal, she was calculating accounts with an abacus and soaking her feet in hot water brought by Liu Ji. When she opened her mouth, a handful of peeled pumpkin seeds were brought to her mouth.

Liu Ji saw her cheeks bulging like a squirrel, and felt very accomplished and satisfied.

Being able to feed such a murderous evil woman and take care of her comfortably is not something that ordinary men can do.

Only a unique and outstanding man like him can accomplish this.

Qin Yao seemed to feel something and glanced at him suspiciously. The man smiled like a flower and handed over another cup of warm tea that had been dried.

Don't say it, don't say it! She was really thirsty!

Liu Ji watched her pick up the tea cup and drink it all in one gulp, feeling happy and thinking, this is a good idea~

Little did he know that half an hour later, the person in front of him, whom he thought he had complete control of, would twist his head off with his bare hands in the street.

Qin Yao looked at the sky outside the window. It was almost time, and the busiest time in Yihongyuan was now.

"Have a rest." Qin Yao closed the account book, put down her abacus, lifted her comfortable feet out of the basin, took the foot wipe handed by Liu Ji, wiped away the water stains, and put on her own slippers. , lay down on the bed.

Liu Ji poured the water for washing her feet, wiped away the water splashed on the floor, spread out her bed, covered her with a quilt, and said, "Good night, madam." She closed her eyes and fell asleep beautifully.

Today is another day where I didn’t get scolded~

Soon, the people on the ground fell asleep.

Qin Yao, who was already sleeping soundly on the bed, suddenly sat up, put on clothes and shoes, and took no weapons with her. She took away Liu Ji's scarf and covered her entire face, leaving only a pair of black eyes exposed.

The door opened and closed quickly. The cold wind wanted to invade, but before it had time, it was blocked outside.

The lights were still on in the lobby of the inn. The innkeepers were wiping tables and chairs and cleaning. The shopkeeper was calculating today's revenue with a ledger. Most of the guests in the guest rooms had turned off the lights and went to bed. The entire back alley of the inn was so quiet that only the barking of dogs could be heard.

At this time, the most lively place is the Fireworks Alley in the south of the city, with lights, wine, and people buzzing, which is the climax of the joy.

On the roof, silhouettes of people moved quickly. Those who didn't know it thought they were wild cats looking for food. Alarmed by the sound of people, they quickly shrank into the dim shadows and got stuck in the blind spot of people's vision. Several waves of men and women who came to have fun came from here. After passing by, I didn't notice anything unusual.

The face in the portrait has been memorized in Qin Yao's mind. The time and place were given by Mu Ling himself, so they should be correct.

Qin Yao leaned in the shadows boredly, watching the waves of people passing by, wondering if she had arrived late and missed it.

Just as he was doubting whether the information from the Guards was correct, a familiar face suddenly came into view.

Qin Yao repeatedly confirmed that, out of caution, she still shouted to the man who was being supported by the beauties at the gate of Yihongyuan from half a street away: "Guo Lin!"

The man, who seemed drunk but not drunk, paused for a few seconds before turning his neck suspiciously.

However, the beautiful woman next to him reminded him first: "Mr. Guo, someone seems to be calling you."

Great, confirmed!

Qin Yao ran out of the shadows very fast. Guo Lin felt that suddenly there was a strange looking person wrapped in cloth in front of him.

The beauties were startled by the sudden appearance of the person. They thought this person was a bit strange, but they did not react.

Guo Lin, on the other hand, might have done too much because of his troubles. When he saw those cold eyes, his heart rang with alarm. He subconsciously pushed the two beauties in his hands out, turned around and shouted: "Come here!"

When he travels, he must be escorted by his entire family. Two of the guards are right behind him, and the rest are waiting by the carriage at the gate of Yihong Tower.

Hearing Guo Lin's roar, the two guards closest to him immediately rushed forward with their swords drawn. If they were ordinary killers who missed the first opportunity, it would be impossible to take Guo Lin's life under heavy guards.

However, the killer they faced today was Qin Yao.

Two knives slashed at her from the left and right. She moved her feet and jumped into the air. Her toes took advantage of the force of the blade. She jumped forward and clasped her hands on the shoulders of Guo Lin, who had just ran three meters away.

Under the impact of the huge force, Guo Lin's body fell forward uncontrollably.

Qin Yao just happened to fall on his back, and her knees bent, pressing against his spine. The weight of the mountain made his internal organs shift, and he spit out a mouthful of blood on the spot.

Before the frightened Guo Lin could question, a pair of warm hands fell on his head, and there was only a "click" sound. Guo Lin's eyes exploded, his head bent at a weird angle, and his whole body disappeared instantly. breath.
