Doomsday disaster, she went crazy after awakening

Chapter 205: If the real gold doesn't cooperate, I won't be the cannon fodder

The potion dissolved in her mouth, and a warm current quickly spread throughout her limbs and bones. Her spirit, which had seemed a little listless due to her disguise, instantly became refreshed, as if a heavy burden had been lifted off her shoulders, and she felt relaxed all over.

Under the guidance of the system, Xu Zimo quietly left the Duke of Huguo's Mansion...

The outside world was both familiar and unfamiliar to her, but at this moment her heart was full of anticipation and excitement.

The prosperous scene of Kyoto comes into view, with shops lining the streets and a constant stream of pedestrians.

Although there were many people and it was noisy, Xu Zimo seemed to be like a fish in water.

Relying on the guidance of the system, he shuttled through the crowd, looking for his target - the residence of the pacification envoy.

Xu Zimo knew that it was not easy to find someone to help, but in this prosperous Kyoto, it was easy to find the residence of the pacification envoy.

Xu Zimo soon arrived at the gate of the pacification envoy's mansion, only to see that the door was wide open, looking solemn and dignified.

However, no one passed by the door. Some people had to pass by, but they all came and went in a hurry, as if the guards in front of the door could eat people.

Xu Zimo did not go up and knock on the door directly, but chose to sit down on a stone step in the corner next to the gate.

She sat there obediently and quietly, like a child waiting for her parents.

The person on duty standing next to the pacification commissioner's mansion couldn't help but frown when he saw Xu Zimo, a strange beggar, sitting in front of the door.

They exchanged glances, secretly wondering: Who is this beggar?

Why are you sitting here?

Are you looking for the Pacification Commissioner?

However, Xu Zimo seemed not to notice their gazes. He just sat there quietly, waiting for something.

But that calmness and composure made the person on duty feel puzzled.

At this moment, Xu Zimo had no choice. She was now just a ragged little beggar with a haggard look. If she asked to see the pacification envoy in this state, she would be considered as someone who came to cause trouble.

In the past, when they encountered beggars, the guards on duty on the side of the pacification commissioner would always drive them away without hesitation, for fear that they would taint their luxury and nobility.

But the beggar in front of him was completely different from the ones he had seen before.

Just then, a familiar voice broke her thoughts.

It was one of the pacification envoy's attendants, and he had recognized the beggar.

At that time, this person was the one who sent Xu Zimo back to Xu Mansion.

This person was someone who had met the beggar Xu Zimo once.

He walked up to her, with a somewhat polite tone: "Girl, this is not where you should be, please leave."

Xu Zimo was unmoved. She took a deep breath and said firmly, "I'll find the pacification envoy."

The follower was stunned, then frowned.

"May I ask what the young lady wants from the pacification envoy? I can pass the message on."

After asking this question, he felt something was wrong.

After all, he was just a follower, how dare he ask about his master's private affairs?

But if this lady could refute him by saying "meddling in other people's business" like other Kyoto women, then he would feel at ease.

However, Xu Zimo did not do so.

She was silent for a moment, as if thinking about how to answer.

Finally, she raised her head, looked at the follower with a firm gaze, and slowly said: "I have something important to report to him.

This matter concerns the safety of the entire Kyoto, I must meet him in person."

The followers were shocked by her words.

This reason is so far-fetched!

But it also gave him a good reason, this young lady was not the kind of person who would make trouble without reason.

If he was really punished by an adult, then this guy who said he had something important to do can’t be blamed...right?

It’s worth it to clean up the Xu family’s Duke of Huguo Mansion!

When you come to a dungeon, you have to do something to prove you've been there, right? !

Xu Zimo's voice trembled slightly, and she continued softly: "My Lords, please send me to the Duke of Huguo's Mansion.

However, they did not welcome me and even attacked me and wanted to kill me.

I had had enough of that life there and really wanted to leave.

However, they told me that since you sent me here, I must get your permission before I can leave."

Xu Zimo's words were full of helplessness and sadness, and her eyes were sparkling with tears, as if they would fall at any time.

Her words shocked everyone present. They didn't expect that this seemingly weak beggar, ahem, weak girl, would be treated like this in the Duke of Protectorate's Mansion.

It seems that he doesn't treat this beggar girl as his own family!

"Miss, please wait a moment." After hearing what Xu Zimo said, a guard turned and walked into the gate of the pacification envoy, obviously to help with the notification.

"Thank you." Xu Zimo said gratefully. Although her voice was weak, it was full of sincerity.

She knew that it was possible for her to be able to stand here.

After a while, the servant came out: "Miss, please follow me."

Led by his attendants, Xu Zimo passed through a series of gates and came to a spacious and bright room.

The room is filled with various exquisite furniture and decorations, making it look very luxurious.

Xu Zimo sat on the chair somewhat nervously. As a famous pacification envoy, it was impossible for him not to be nervous.

A young man in white came over.

He was none other than the Pacification Envoy Jing Yang.

He looked at Xu Zimo, with a hint of surprise and confusion in his eyes.

Xu Zimo was even more surprised, but when he saw the feminine and fierce look on his face, he knew that the person in front of him was not the same person as in the previous copy.

Although the previous person was also cold, he did not have this kind of feminine energy.

"Greetings, Your Excellency!" Xu Zimo lowered his eyes and saluted.

The pacification envoy Yang Yang sat opposite Xu Zimo. He looked at her carefully, as if he wanted to see through her heart.

"Tell me?" the pacification envoy finally asked.

But it was just a faint word. If I didn't know that he was not here to seek revenge, I would have thought he was an opponent!

Xu Zimo was even more certain that this person was not the Jing Yang...

Xu Zimo took a deep breath and then told his story.

She recounted how she was abandoned by her family and how she was sent to the Duke of Protectorate's Mansion, and now how she was being beaten and scolded by the people in the Duke of Protectorate's Mansion. Xu Zimo emphasized especially what Boss Xu had said.

The pacification envoy listened quietly to Xu Zimo's story, with a thoughtful look on his face.

"Can!"

Xu Zimo was silent.

She talked so much and you just answered her with just one word.

But this word is also a good thing for Xu Zimo.

However, the servant who sent Xu Zimo out admired Xu Zimo's courage and determination.

He knew that although this girl had suffered many misfortunes, she had her own ideas and dared to say so much in front of the pacification envoy.

He looked at her deeply, and then said, "Girl, don't worry, I'll take you there."

Xu Zimo was grateful: "Thank you!"

She knew that her fate might change because of this meeting.

The night was dark, the wind was cold, and the street lights flickered, reflecting the hurried footsteps of pedestrians.

In front of this quiet pacification envoy's mansion, a figure slowly walked out from the depths of the mansion. It was Xu Zimo.

Li Zuo frowned slightly. Why is Xu Zimo still here?

He was about to ask, but Xu Zimo said something shocking: "You've been poisoned, find a good doctor to see you, or you won't live long!"

Li Zuo was stunned when he heard this.

He looked Xu Zimo up and down, feeling an inexplicable emotion in his heart.

How could this little beggar tell that he was poisoned?

Although he was shocked in his heart, he remained calm on the surface and said coldly: "You said I am sick?"

Xu Zimo nodded, looking serious: "Your face is dark and your breath is short, which is obviously a sign of poisoning.

If you don’t get medical treatment in time, you may lose your life.”

Li Zuo listened to his words, but his heart was in turmoil.

As an attendant of the pacification envoy, his status cannot be said to be noble, but there are always many people who try to curry favor with him on a daily basis.

But this was the first time he met someone as outspoken as Xu Zimo, pointing out that he was poisoned.

Although he was shocked, he was more confused and curious.

He looked at Xu Zimo deeply and asked, "How did you figure that out?"

Xu Zimo smiled slightly and said, “Although I am a little beggar, I once met an old man with excellent medical skills.

He taught me some medical skills, which enabled me to diagnose some diseases.

Your symptoms are exactly what I have seen before."

Upon hearing this, Li Zuo became even more shocked and confused.

He looked at Xu Zimo, then at the hidden figure in the mansion, and an inexplicable emotion surged in his heart.

This little beggar actually has such extraordinary medical skills, it is really impressive.

He took a deep breath, suppressed his doubts, and said, "Thank you for reminding me. I will go see a doctor."

Xu Zimo nodded and said, "That's good. Remember, you only have one life, so cherish it."

After saying that, she turned and left, blending into the crowd.

Li Zuo stood there, watching his back gradually walking away, but his heart could not calm down for a long time.

He didn't expect that a seemingly ordinary little beggar would give him such a big shock.

Then Li Zuo turned around and went to the corner.

"My Lord, she can actually tell that I'm poisoned?"

"Yeah." Still just one word.

Li Zuo was not surprised, as the pacification envoy had always been a man of few words.

"Go and keep an eye on it. If you really leave the Duke of Protectorate's Mansion, we can temporarily place you there and treat your illness!"

Li Zuo: ...He didn’t believe a word of it.

But it’s also a good thing to have someone with great medical skills around!

In Xu Zimo's heart, he just wanted to repay Li Zuo's kindness in passing on the message, but he didn't expect that it would lead to such twists and turns.

It was late at night, and the lights in the Xu family's mansion were on, but there was an indescribable sense of depression.

Adopted daughter Xu Meixia was sitting alone in her boudoir, her brows furrowed, as if she was waiting for some news.

However, she didn't know that the person she cared about, Xu Zimo, had already made a decision, a decision that would change the fate of both of them - she was going to leave the Xu family.

Just then, the sound of hurried footsteps broke the silence of the night.

A maid rushed into Xu Meixia's room panting, her face full of panic and anxiety.

When Xu Meixia saw this, her heart tightened; she had a premonition of something.

"Miss, it's bad!" the maid gasped, "That little beggar...she, she's back again!"

Xu Meixia was shocked when she heard this. She stood up suddenly, grabbed the maid's shoulders, and asked anxiously, "What did you say? Didn't she run away? How could she come back again?"

During the day, Xu Meixia pretended to be weak, and those members of the Xu family wanted to avenge her, but in the end they didn't find that little bitch.

I didn't expect that he would come back after running away. Damn it!

The maid nodded, tears welling up in her eyes: "It's true, Miss, they just came back, and the eldest master and the others have gone there."

Xu Meixia stood there in a daze, feeling mixed emotions.

If someone wants to take advantage of someone's misfortune, that woman must not stay in the Xu Mansion, otherwise her situation will be very embarrassing.

She is about to get engaged. If she leaves the Duke of Huguo's Mansion, what kind of family can she marry?

Can……

However, at this moment, there was a noise outside the door.

Xu Meixia and the maid looked at each other and immediately showed a weak look.

They do this all the time!

After a while, a group of people rushed into the yard angrily.

As soon as they entered the room, they started scolding loudly: "Xu Zimo, this unfilial daughter, is responsible for all this! Kneel down and apologize to Xia'er!"

When Xu Meixia heard the scolding, her face lit up with joy and she immediately lay down on the bed pretending to be sick.

The little girl quickly took a towel and covered her forehead.

Outside, although Xu Zimo, who was being pulled by them, didn't care, he still felt a pang of pain in his heart.

Family, bah!

Who cares who is a dog!

However, these members of the Xu family did not listen to her explanation at all, or they had no intention of recognizing Xu Zimo as a family member at all.

They continued to scold her: "Fortunately you are not included in the family tree! Otherwise, you would have brought shame to our Xu family!"

Xu Zimo listened to these harsh words, and his cold voice rang out: "Fortunately, I am not included in the family tree, otherwise I would be in trouble."

Boss Xu raised his hand and was about to hit someone: "You bitch, kneel down!"

Pfft!

Boss Xu fell down. It turned out that he was about to hit Xu Zimo, but Xu Zimo dodged him.

Xu Zimo looked at the Xu family coldly, patted his beggar clothes and said, "Xu family, bah!

Since I arrived here yesterday, I haven't eaten a single bite of your food or worn any of your clothes.

Don't use your face to talk about me. Do you have any face?

Let's talk it out, don't torture each other. I'm still a little beggar, and you're still the Duke of the Guard. Don't get tired of each other!"

"You want to leave?"

"if not?"

"Since you are not a member of the Xu family, you are just a little beggar. Just let him die! Cough cough." Xu Meixia said while deliberately coughing twice.

When the others heard this, a fierce look flashed in their eyes.

Just at this moment, Li Zuo happened to arrive.

I originally planned to wait for a while, and then go in and tell Xu Zimo after he had finished talking with the people from the Duke of Huguo's Mansion.

However, the scene before him saved him the effort.

He finally understood why the beggar girl had no regrets at all. The difference between the Xu family and what was rumored outside was too great.

How can a family that can't even tolerate its own daughter be nice to outsiders?

Xu Zimo, who was ruthlessly kicked out of the door, didn't feel anything, but Li Zuo couldn't help but feel a surge of sympathy.

Li Zuo secretly shook his head, and his favorable impression of the National Defense Association dropped a few points...
