Marry a powerful minister and remain a widow?I’m done with the book-wearing female role!

Jiang Yuzhu carefully placed the teapot inside and hugged her. After everything was done, she was distracted and replied to Xie Zhao: "Yuanhe, you also know that I have the habit of sleeping with something in my arms. In the past, I hugged a feather duster. Now I go out on the road. Everything Keep it simple.”

The beauty Xie Zhao is meeting may not be who she is.

Jiang Yuzhu had already gotten a rough idea from the deep look in his eyes. Instead of worrying about Xie Zhao, who was already prepared, it would be better to worry about the 20 taels of silver.

Holding Jiang Yuzhu in her arms, she felt warmer than a man's body temperature. The hot temperature made her intoxicated.

Human hearts are complex and unpredictable, and no matter how good a person is, there is a risk of betrayal, but money will not.

Thinking of this, Jiang Yuzhu hugged the teapot and quickly fell asleep.

In the room, Xie Zhao was silent.

After a long while, Xie Zhao came to the bed and wanted to take the teapot away.

Unexpectedly, after several moves, Jiang Yuzhu moved very stubbornly while she was sleeping, hugging the teapot so tightly that there was almost no gap.

Madam has never taken the initiative towards him!

Xie Zhao felt disgusted in his heart. After calming down, he silently lowered the bed curtains, feeling deeply that there was a long way to go to improve his status.

Silent night.

In the room, a candle was lit, giving off a faint light.

A dark shadow flashed on the Korean paper outside the window of the guest room.

The shadow seemed to hesitate for a moment, then pierced the Korean paper and got out an iron pipe.

Soon, bursts of white smoke came out of the pipe, and the smell was choking.

At this moment, Jiang Yuzhu was already awake.

Thinking of what Xie Zhao said about a family appointment, Jiang Yuzhu fumbled for the package in front of the bed, took out the mask, and held the teapot tightly in her hand.

If something goes wrong, act accordingly!

"Xie Zhao, today is your death day!"

The door to the room and the terrace were pushed open, and seven or eight masked men in black poured in from both sides.

The leader roared, and the sound was extremely harsh.

No one was surprised to see that Xie Zhao did not fall down due to the smoke.

People who practice martial arts will always persist for a period of time, just to hold on.

Xie Zhao slowly opened his eyes, with a rare hint of laziness on his face, and said in a low voice, "I have been waiting for you for a long time."

Dried bigger, scattered sooner.

If it weren't for these people's procrastination, Xie Zhao would already have a beautiful woman in his arms. How could he be so jealous of the teapot?

"What do you mean?"

The leading man in black had a distorted expression and said angrily, "Xie Zhao, are you really arrogant? Do you think you have everything under control?"

When in the capital, the master should not act rashly.

Now that he has left Beijing, Xie Zhao's death has come.

"It's just you, trying to replace Jiang Fulu, you are overestimating your own abilities!"

The man in black drew his dagger and pointed it directly at Xie Zhao's heart.

Xie Zhao chuckled nonchalantly and replied: "Originally, I didn't plan to leave you alive, but seeing how hard you worked and arrogant, I decided not to kill you."

At this time, the man in black was puzzled. He reminded himself that he was not falling into the trap, but he couldn't help but ask: "Why did you let me go?"

"Go back and tell your master not to send such nonsense next time."

Xie Zhao curled his lips and sneered.

I have to talk a lot of nonsense every time and die quietly in the end?

The emotional men in black are not as interesting as the dead soldiers.

Anyway, the trip to the Northland was full of crises.

It’s time for the dark hands in the dark to show their fox tail.

"Ha ha!"

The leader of the men in black sighed, and his face became even more distorted with anger. He blew a whistle, and the other men in black immediately swarmed forward, showing the trend of surrounding them.

The men in black thought that they would win a great victory with more than the few, and would at least bite off a piece of Xie Zhao's flesh and blood. One of them took the lead and struck with a cold-lighting short blade carrying a strong wind.

Xie Zhao sat on the chair without moving. He stretched out a hand to face the short blade and easily broke the short blade.

There was a bang, and half of the short blade fell to the ground.

"you……"

The people in black were heartbroken. Before they could continue to struggle, Xie Zhao grabbed a handful of copper coins and threw them towards the people in black.

The speed of the copper coins was a little faster than the swords, as if they had eyes. The people in black were unable to dodge and were punched into the chest.

Then, there was a thumping sound, and the body fell to the ground.

The leader of the man in black had fear in his eyes, his pupils were dilated, and he stuttered: "You, didn't you say let me go?"

"I had this plan, but now I have changed my mind. If you talk nonsense, what if you say something you shouldn't say..."

Xie Zhao once again rewarded everyone with a copper coin and silenced everyone.

Then, the door opened gently, and Xie Zhao's men cleaned up the mess.

Liang'an brought a basin and a towel, but after entering the door, he didn't find any trace of blood. He was very surprised: "Master, these people have obviously been silenced, why..."

"If we see blood, we have to pay money to Futong Inn. Madam feels sorry for the money, so we can save it if we can."

Xie Zhao chuckled softly and replied patiently.

Besides, does Liangan think he is rich?

Xie Zhao touched his purse and sighed. He really wasn't as rich as Liang'an.

"By the way, Liang'an, go and give the order. Search the man in black for any wallets or anything else. If not, give the copper coins to the master and I will return them. Otherwise, I will have to use stones next time."

Xie Zhao drove everyone away, washed up and went to bed.

Jiang Yuzhu turned sideways inward, still holding the teapot tightly in his hand, not moving at all.

She was pretending to sleep, and Jiang Yuzhu heard all the noises outside.

When we start our journey from now on, we must not only save our lives, but also our money!

Setting off on the road early the next morning, the couple said nothing about what happened that night.

However, Hong Jin came forward to report: "I heard something strange last night and wanted to protect you, but I was stopped by the master's men."

Hongxiu also heard it and was dissatisfied with Xie Zhao's handling: "Master, too, he still wants to take credit for himself at this juncture!"

Jiang Yuzhu listened to the maid's complaint, waved her hands and said: "Master has his own arrangements. Let's try our best to cooperate. You just need to be smart..."

By evening, the convoy had left the capital and stayed overnight on the official road.

A large group of people set up fires around the area and prepared to cook a big pot of rice.

"Madam, there are big fish in the river near the surrounding villages. Why don't you touch them and stew them into fish soup?"

Even if autumn tigers are in full bloom, the temperature drops at night is still a bit chilly.

Xie Zhao asked for advice and took Jiang Yuzhu to the river to wash up.

Liang'an and Hongjin were responsible for fishing. While it was still dark, Xie Zhao was picking up pebbles washed by the river.

He kept all the good-looking ones in his pocket.

"Yuanhe, do you like rocks?"

Jiang Yuzhu estimated that those noisy men in black yesterday were all poor people.

Copper coins are embedded in the body and are difficult to dig out, otherwise Xie Zhao would not be so poor and use pebbles as a supply of copper coins.

Mr. Xie, who is in a high position, knows how to live a good life!

Xie Zhao concealed his intention and replied: "Jade is produced here. My husband thinks the style is good-looking and wants to polish it to make stone bracelets."

The couple were chatting, and a panicked woman came running from the village entrance not far away. The woman looked steadily in the direction of the two of them, with hope in her eyes and said: "Help, help!"
