Ding Guanglie swallowed and softened his tone.

"Girl, it's a misunderstanding, it's all a misunderstanding. Your father and my father are colleagues. There's no need to make it so life-and-death, right..."

"Everything can be discussed. If you have any request, just ask..."

Seeing Lin Yiran not saying anything, Ding Guanglie's heart skipped a beat and a hint of anger flashed in his eyes.

When had he ever spoken in such a humble tone?

Ding Guanglie smiled and patted the horse beside him.

"I see that the girl is a horse lover, so I'll give her this horse as an apology for any offense you may have committed."

"If you think it's not enough, wait... wait until I get back and I'll send you a few more horses. Is that okay with you?"

Lin Yiran looked at Ding Guanglie coldly.

Don't think she didn't see the murderous look that flashed across Ding Guanglie's eyes.

What a coincidence, she had no intention of letting these people go back alive.

Lin Yiran curled the corners of her lips, without saying a word, she swung the whip and lashed at Ding Guanglie.

The "crackling" sound accompanied by Ding Guanglie's screams scared the several followers who were wailing on the ground so much that they dared not make a sound.

After being whipped three times, Ding Guanglie felt like he was dying.

He bit his back teeth, lay on the ground twitching, and pretended to faint.

Ahh ...

Bitch, don't let him find a chance. He will make her know what it means to be unable to live or die.

After seeing all six people faint, Lin Yiran jumped off the horse and picked up the sword that Ding Guanglie had dropped on the ground.

She walked up to the fainted people and cut their throats one by one.

She didn't need these troubles to lead the way, and she would not let go of any horse in Shiquan City.

She also remembered the Ding Mansion and would not leave a single piece of wood behind.

Therefore, these evils should be eliminated directly; leaving them behind will only cause trouble in the future.

Killing bad guys is something she gets used to after a while. As long as she thinks about how these evildoers will kill more people if they are alive, she feels no burden when she kills them.

Ding Guanglie pretended to be unconscious and thought he had escaped the disaster. However, when he opened his eyes again, they were filled with shock and he died with his eyes wide open.

"Lady, spare my life!"

The girl who witnessed it all looked at the bloody sword in Lin Yiran's hand with horror and fell to her knees.

Lin Yiran glanced at the girl calmly and said, "Go away."

"Thank you for saving my life, lady!"

The girl kowtowed to thank Lin Yiran. She raised her head, bit her lip, and looked at Lin Yiran with a firm gaze.

"Please take me in, lady. I am willing to be your maid."

She is now completely homeless. The villagers have fled or left, and there are not many people left.

Going back to the village would only lead to humiliation and death...

In order to save food, her family fled the famine with her brother and left her behind, leaving her homeless.

If the city gates had not been closed to prevent refugees from entering the city, she would have been sold by her parents by now.

Lin Yiran narrowed her eyes slightly, "What's your name?"

The girl was silent for a moment, pursed her lips,

"Please ask the lady to give the maid a name."

Girls in the village were sold to wealthy families as maids, and their masters gave them names.

She heard all this from the villagers. The master's giving of a name is a sign of recognition of you.

Lin Yiran looked at the girl in surprise. It seemed that she was another person with a story.

"Can you read?"

"Maidens can learn."

"......" Lin Yiran thought for a moment, "From now on, you will be called Shang Lu."

The girl's face lit up with joy, and she kowtowed quickly, "Thank you, Lady Shanglu, for giving me the name."

Lin Yiran jumped back onto the horse.

"Call me General Long."

"Yes, General Long!"

Shang Lu didn't even blink and changed his words directly without asking Lin Yiran why he called himself General Long.

Lin Yiran's eyes lit up slightly, and she was very satisfied with Shang Lu's performance.

This girl has the talent of a personal secretary. She doesn't ask questions that she shouldn't ask, and she's not curious. She just does what her boss asks her to do.

She discussed it with Xiao Yunzhan and decided that calling her fairy was not powerful enough, so they each gave themselves a domineering general name.

She is General Dragon, Xiao Yunzhan is General Tiger, Old Madam Xiao is General Tiance, the eldest sister-in-law is General Chongtian, the second sister-in-law is General Tiexue, and the third sister-in-law is General Weiwu.

Originally, the family insisted on making Lin Yiran the General of Tiance, saying that this title meant he was the best among all the military commanders in the world, and that Lin Yiran was the most suitable since he had the greatest strength.

No one in Daliang State has ever been named the General of Tiance.

Lin Yiran said directly that Old Madam Xiao was the cohesive force of the Xiao family. An old person in the family was like a treasure, and the General Tiance had to be Old Madam Xiao.

She doesn't care about these titles. If it really comes true, she would just be the empress, which would be more domineering.

Lin Yiran looked back in the direction of the main force, which was less than 500 meters away from her.

She could see farther away while sitting on horseback, but Shang Lu could not see the main force while kneeling on the ground.

"Can you ride a horse?"

Lin Yiran glanced at a few horses and her eyes fell on Shang Lu.

Shang Lu shook his head and said, "No, I will learn it now."

As he spoke, Shang Lu got up from the ground, picked up a skinny horse, and climbed onto the horse's back, imitating the way the others had just mounted their horses, gritted his teeth and climbed onto the horse's back.

It has to be said that the horse chosen by Shang Lu was really honest. No matter how she tossed it, the horse stood there as still as a mountain.

After some struggle, Shanglu was able to climb onto the horse's back.

She gripped the saddle tightly with both hands, sat stiffly on the horse's back, and looked up at Lin Yiran.

Lin Yiran raised her eyebrows and smiled, then raised the reins in her hand.

"Take the reins."

Shang Lu immediately let go of the saddle, grabbed the reins in his hand, and slowly breathed a sigh of relief.

"Da da da~"

There was the sound of horse hooves, and Xiao Yunzhan rode his horse to Lin Yiran's side.

Seeing several bodies on the ground, he looked at Lin Yiran nervously.

"Did they hurt you?"

Lin Yiran sneered, "How can they hurt me?"

"That's good."

Xiao Yunzhan let out a long sigh, jumped off his horse, dragged the bodies and threw them into the ditch.

He knew at a glance that Lin Yiran had killed these people in order to save the girl.

He doesn't understand others, but he knows Lin Yiran, and she is not the kind of person who would kill innocent people.

These people are definitely not good people.

Lin Yiran looked at Ding Guanglie's horse and said to Xiao Yunzhan,

"We have to hurry to Shiquan City. The dead man is the son of Magistrate Ding of Shiquan City. From what he said, his father was corrupt. The people of Shiquan City are not having a good time. Let's go over and reap the rewards..."

Xiao Yunzhan listened to Lin Yiran's straightforward words, and the corners of his mouth twitched twice.

"Okay, after two days of training, it's time to speed up."

They really couldn't walk so slowly. If they were caught up by the palace guards, it would be difficult to save these soldiers who had been reorganized with great difficulty.
