Starting by Getting a Wife? It Turns Out She Is a Skilled Assassin

Chapter 110



Chapter 110: Fire Rain Lord’s Treasure! The two concubines are more obedient than one another!

Lady Humeiren, Lady Hu, and Nongyu, three beauties, gathered together.

Lady Mingzhu gracefully served on the side.

In her heart, she cursed Lady Humeiren dozens of times.

Not only did she look like a fox spirit, but she was also as cunning as a fox.

In this situation, Lady Mingzhu naturally dared not leave early. She had to wait patiently till the end of the performance, no matter how unpleasant it may be. “During this period, is there any movement from the Nightfall?”

Suddenly, Li Mo set down her teacup and asked.

Although Ji Wuye was dead, the Nightfall had not completely collapsed.

The Nightfall controlled Han’s finance, politics, military, and espionage.

Lady Mingzhu was on his side, but the other three were still operating as usual.

Especially Bai Yifei.

He was ambitious and would definitely try to replace Ji Wuye to control the Nightfall.

This was also the reason why Li Mo wanted to win Lady Mingzhu over. Lady Mingzhu was a big bomb!

The kind that could silently kill people!

“The officials in the court are still under my control, and the espionage organization is the most mysterious. Ji Wuye trained new recruits to replace the Scarecrow before he died. There are some things even I don’t know.”

“Fei Cuihu is in charge of finance and has been busy with business lately.”

“But…”

Lady Mingzhu paused, seeming unsure of the accuracy of the information.

Li Mo picked up the conversation, “But he’s been transferring assets recently, hasn’t he?”

Lady Mingzhu looked at him in surprise.

Li Mo pursed her lips, “With Ji Wuye dead and Bai Yifei absent, you have no control over him.”

“Of course, he wants to transfer all the assets so that all the money belongs to him alone.”

“Fei Cuihu is greedy but cowardly.”

“He’s afraid he’ll be the next to die, so he’s preparing to slip away.”

Lady Mingzhu looked at him admiringly.

She was surprised that Li Mo guessed so accurately.

Li Mo shook his head and continued, “Bai Yifei won’t let him leave.”

How could he get things done without money?

Even if Fei Cuihu wanted to leave, he had to leave the money behind!

“If Bai Yifei succeeds this time, he may not value Fei Cuihu anymore.”

Lady Mingzhu glanced at Lady Humeiren and Lady Hu, thoughtful.

Li Mo sighed, not agreeing with her.

“First of all, no one would complain about having too much money, and secondly, Bai Yifei will have no gain this time.”

Lady Mingzhu was suddenly shocked, her slender and beautiful eyes widened in disbelief as she looked at him.

“Does the master know what Bai Yifei is doing?”

Li Mo said lightly, “Baiyue, to find Fire Rain Lord’s treasure.”

Lady Mingzhu took a deep breath, her face full of shock.

The whole Nightfall, only Ji Wuye, Bai Yifei, and her knew about this.

Even the assassins who went with Bai Yifei to Baiyue didn’t know the purpose of this trip.

Li Mo, an outsider, how did he know so clearly!

The chatting Lady Humeiren and Lady Hu suddenly stopped.

Both of their gazes fell on this side.

“My father’s treasure?”

Fire Rain Lord was the master of the Fire Rain Manor in Baiyue.

They were the young mistresses of the Fire Rain Manor.

The treasure Bai Yifei was looking for belonged to their family!

The Fire Rain Manor was destroyed before Baiyue.

It was rumored that Fire Rain Lord was as rich as a country and had a large number of treasures.

It attracted the attention of unscrupulous people.

Misfortune struck, and the Fire Rain Manor was destroyed overnight by a group of mysterious people.

Yet, the treasure they sought had never been found.

Bai Yifei’s purpose in going to Baiyue this time was to find this batch of treasures!

“Do you know where it is?” Lady Mingzhu’s strange gaze swept over the two of them.

Lady Hu shook her head gently and said softly, “Father never mentioned this to us before he passed away. We only heard rumors from the outside that father possessed a huge treasure.”

Fire Rain Lord only had these two beloved daughters.

But even they were not told.

This showed the importance of this treasure!

It’s not that they didn’t trust the two of them, but they were worried that if someone knew they knew about the treasure, they would target them.

This would only harm them.

“Fire Rain Manor was destroyed overnight, they acted in haste, and didn’t have much time to search.”

“And initially, there were also Baiyue assassins involved. Ji Wuye was insatiable and would not share the treasure with them.”

“Before, he had the intention of rebellion and needed a large amount of military funds, so he sent Bai Yifei to Baiyue to search again.”

Lady Mingzhu opened her lips and spoke openly about the matter.

After hearing this, Lady Humeiren and Lady Hu suddenly stood up excitedly.

Their eyes were fixed on Lady Mingzhu.

“You… What did you say?”

“Fire Rain Manor, was it done by Ji Wuye?”

Lady Mingzhu shrugged and looked at Lady Hu as if nothing had happened. “To be precise, it was Liu Yi.”

Lady Hu’s face instantly turned pale, and her voluptuous body shook a few times.

Nongyu hurriedly went up to support her and helped her sit down.

“It’s him… It’s him, how could it be him…”

Lady Hu’s eyes were dull, empty.

The one who killed her closest relative, destroyed her home, turned out to be her husband!

Although their relationship was bad, no matter what, he was the person closest to her in name!

It’s ridiculous that she didn’t know for so many years!

The biggest enemy turned out to be right beside her!

“Liu Yi!”

Lady Humeiren was also full of anger at this moment.

Clasping her jade hands tightly, a fierce killing intent flashed in her foxy eyes.

Neither of them doubted the truthfulness of Lady Mingzhu’s words.

She dared to deceive herself, but she definitely wouldn’t dare to lie in front of Li Mo.

“Liu Yi suddenly reported to Ji Wuye about the large treasure hidden in Fire Rain Manor.”

“Ji Wuye had evil intentions upon hearing this and ordered Liu Yi to take charge of this matter.”

“Although the biggest treasure of Fire Rain Lord was not found, the wealth obtained after looting Fire Rain Manor was still a astronomical figure.”

“Your family is really wealthy.”

Lady Mingzhu continued to talk about the events of the past, and finally, she sarcastically said to Lady Humeiren.

Just the wealth of half of Fire Rain Manor allowed Ji Wuye to support him as Left Sima.

It’s hard to imagine how huge the largest treasure of Fire Rain Lord was!

Rich enough to rival a country, this is not something that can be said casually.

The two of them ignored the sarcasm in Lady Mingzhu’s words.

Lady Humeiren held Lady Hu’s hand tightly, tears shimmering in her eyes.

She knew that Lady Hu was even more distressed than herself now.

The person who killed her father and destroyed her home turned out to be her husband!

“Sis, don’t worry, I will find a way. I won’t let Liu Yi off.”

Lady Humeiren knew that Lady Hu and Liu Yi had long lost any real affection.

But for her to go and seek revenge from Liu Yi was like a fool’s dream.

Now, she could only hope that she could find a way to start with the King of Han.

“It’s because of me that father died, it’s because of me that Fire Rain Manor was destroyed.”

Lady Hu hugged Lady Humeiren, crying uncontrollably.

Lady Mingzhu just said that Liu Yi reported to Ji Wuye about the treasure of Fire Rain Manor.

In fact, he wasn’t confused.

He was retaliating against her, against Fire Rain Manor.

Back then, when the two of them had a disagreement, she stayed at Fire Rain Manor for a year before returning.

After she came back, Nongyu appeared.

Naturally, this aroused suspicion from Liu Yi.

Although Fire Rain Lord repeatedly helped Lady Humeiren clarify the situation.

But in Liu Yi’s eyes, it was just a play that you and your daughter were acting in together.

Your daughter stole someone else’s child at her natal home and even gave birth to it, but you, as the father, didn’t care. Instead, you want to team up with her to deceive me!

I, Liu Yi, am so smart, how could I believe your nonsense?

Dare to put the blame on me?

Nobody should think they can get away with it!

So, he vented his anger on Fire Rain Manor.

Lady Mingzhu looked expectantly at Lady Humeiren and said leisurely, “Someone like Liu Yi, I can easily kill him just like playing. How about it, want to consider it?”

Her eyes were full of anticipation.

Beg me, please beg me!

As long as you beg me, and obediently listen to me in the future, I’ll help you get revenge!

See, the opportunity for Lady Humeiren to lick her feet has come!

Following the master was indeed correct.

If he hadn’t mentioned Bai Yifei going to find the treasure, she wouldn’t have remembered this!

“No need, I’ll take care of our grudge myself.”

Lady Humeiren glanced at Lady Mingzhu and rejected coldly.

Are you really that kind-hearted?

Lady Mingzhu was silent for a long time before finally sneering, “Huh, do you think the Emperor of Han will let you off for touching the Left Sima? You think too highly of yourself, don’t you?”

The Left Sima was a crucial military position responsible for managing horses. However, Lady Mingzhu was different.

Liu Yi was from the Nightfall, and she knew very well what Liu Yi had done and what he could be blackmailed with.

It wouldn’t be difficult to deal with him.

“Thank you for your kindness, Lady Mingzhu, but let’s not involve others in this matter.”

Lady Hu’s character was much gentler than Lady Humeiren’s.

Although Lady Humeiren looked harmless, she still had a temper.

But Lady Hu was extremely gentle and kind-hearted.

She always considered others first.

Lady Mingzhu glanced at Lady Humeiren, “Your sister speaks much better than you.”

Don’t want my help? Fine, I’ll think of another way to deal with you!

Lady Humeiren glared back without showing weakness, then said to Lady Hu, “Then you should come back to the palace with me. I’m worried if you go back alone, especially with someone like Liu Yi.”

Lady Humeiren had originally intended to personally escort Lady Hu back.

It could be said that she saved her.

But now that she took a closer look…

Forget it, you’d better not go back.

An enemy who killed her father was hovering in front of her every day. Lady Hu was weak-willed, and she might collapse.

“No, I still want to go back.”

Lady Hu shook her head and refused.

“I can monitor him on Liu Yi’s side. When I find evidence of his collusion with Ji Wuye, I’ll hand it over to the Emperor of Han, and then we can get revenge.”

Lady Mingzhu sneered and sarcastically said to Lady Humeiren, “It seems like your sister is smarter than you.”

Now, the matter of Ji Wuye’s rebellion is the Emperor of Han’s sore spot.

Once someone is found conspiring with him, they will definitely be doomed.

“Are you crazy? Are you done yet?”

Lady Humeiren finally couldn’t stand Lady Mingzhu’s sarcastic tone anymore.

Where would Lady Mingzhu back down? Not willing to show weakness, she said, “What? How about you try your little skills against me? I’ll let you do it with just one hand. Do you want to try?”

Although she also had only mediocre skills…

But compared to Lady Humeiren, she was much better.

“You…”

Lady Humeiren was infuriated by her arrogant appearance, but she couldn’t say a word.

Enough! Stop it.”

Li Mo’s face didn’t look good, he frowned and uttered a command.

Lady Mingzhu’s shoulders trembled slightly, and she immediately stopped being arrogant.

In a whimpering voice, she muttered, “She bullied me first…”

“When did I bully you?”

Lady Humeiren was puzzled.

How could this woman open her mouth like this and play the victim?

“Alright, if you keep arguing, I’ll call the people outside in.”

Li Mo’s tone towards Lady Humeiren softened slightly.

After all, Nongyu should also call her…sister!

Lady Mingzhu noticed the difference in his attitude and bit her lip, not daring to say anything.

Lady Humeiren glared angrily at Lady Mingzhu and obediently sat down.

Nongyu blinked and looked at Li Mo.

Indeed, the master has the ability. Even the two concubines listen to him like this!

Lady Mingzhu looked at Li Mo, then glanced at the silent Lady Humeiren.

The gleam in her eyes flickered.

Fine, I’ll listen to him, but why does Lady Humeiren also listen to him like this?

Without mentioning the matter of Fire Rain Manor, the two of them even argued like this.

This drama couldn’t continue.

They all returned home separately.

Lady Humeiren personally escorted Lady Hu back to the Sima Mansion, and Lady Mingzhu hurriedly returned to the palace as if fleeing.

If she didn’t run now, did she want to wait until Lady Humeiren remembered the bet before running?

Lady Humeiren wouldn’t dare to act up here.

But once she returned to the palace and the master wasn’t there, I, Mingzhu, would ignore you.

What bet?

What losing?

Did I make a bet with you?

Do you have any evidence?

After Lady Humeiren was personally escorted back by Lady Humeiren, Liu Yi naturally didn’t dare to say much.

It wasn’t surprising that she, a concubine, would ransom her sister.

Facing this father’s enemy, Lady Humeiren naturally didn’t have a good expression to show him.

Plus, after Lady Humeiren was kidnapped, Liu Yi’s inaction made Lady Humeiren wish she could kill him right now.

After ensuring Lady Humeiren’s safety, she also returned to the palace.

Just as she left, Liu Yi left right after.

Damn it!

I thought that shameless woman would die outside this time, but I didn’t expect her sister, who is a concubine, to care so much about her.

She actually rescued her!

“Where’s my husband?”

After adjusting her mood, Lady Hu walked out of the courtyard and found a servant to ask.

“Madam, the master has gone out, probably to drink with Master Zhang.”

Lady Hus gaze flickered.

“When did he leave?”

The servant recalled, “It’s been almost half an hour.”

“Almost half an hour… I see, you may leave now.”

Lady Hu nodded and dismissed the servant.

Almost half an hour, so it seems that Liu Yi is already drinking with Master Zhang.

She quickly walked into Liu Yi’s house.

Now is the best opportunity.

Find evidence against Liu Yi and give it to Lady Humeiren.

She didn’t want to stay a moment longer in this house, didn’t want to face Liu Yi’s disgusting face for a moment.

Lady Hu thought she would search the study for a while.

But as soon as she lit the candle, she saw a bamboo slip on Liu Yi’s desk.

It recorded the amount of military funds he had embezzled according to Ji Wu Ye’s instructions.

Lady Hu was stunned.

Would Liu Yi leave such a deadly thing on his desk?

With such a big event involving Ji Wuye, Liu Yi wouldn’t be foolish enough to leave evidence.

This wasn’t destroyed because he needed to keep a record of the amount of military funds.

Lady Hu searched the study again but found nothing else.

Although there was only this one, it was enough!

She carefully kept the bamboo slip and prepared to find Lady Humeiren.

But at that moment, the study door was suddenly kicked open!

“What are you doing in my study?”

Liu Yi, with a grim and angry face, walked in step by step.

His gloomy eyes stared at Lady Hu’s face.

“Give me the thing.”

He glanced at the disturbed seat and instantly understood everything.

A wave of killing intent surged in his eyes.

If Master Zhang wasn’t out, he would have really fallen into this woman’s hands today!

Lady Hu’s face turned pale, and she stepped back.

Liu Yi squinted his eyes and closed the study door behind him.

In a cold tone, he said, “Give me the thing, I’ll pretend I didn’t see anything, and you can still be the Sima Madam. Otherwise…”

He looked at the military knife hanging on the wall and took it down.

“Otherwise, my wife might never return.”

Lady Hu took a deep breath and said sadly, “You’ve wanted me dead for a long time, haven’t you? You killed my father, destroyed our Fire Rain Manor, and you’ve longed to see me dead too, haven’t you?”

Liu Yi sneered, “So you already know? So you came back this time to seek revenge?”

“But with your abilities, do you think it’s possible?”
