Huiming looked at the backs of the people leaving and frowned:

"Master, I think they might be up to something bad. Do you want me to chase them..."

As she spoke, she made a gesture of wiping her neck.

"No need."

Chen Qingzhu said.

She knew Huiming was loyal to her and did everything for her good.

Then he taught:

"Hui Ming, when it's time to kill someone, don't be lenient. But you and I were both ants once. For these lackeys who just follow orders, unless they are guilty of a capital crime or must be killed, it's okay to let them live."

"Now you have extraordinary power. This temple master hopes that when you wield your sword against the weak in the future, you should always keep a compassionate heart in your heart."

She had high hopes for Huiming, hoping that he could grow into an outstanding general who could guard a region.

She wants to conquer the world, and this world is made up of millions of weak but potentially ignorant and stubborn common people.

Therefore, the general she needs should be brave, fearless and decisive in killing, but should also have compassion and care for the weak.

Huiming is also a smart girl who understands things quickly.

Hearing this, she was stunned for a moment and a look of shame appeared on her face.

"Master, I was just angry just now and didn't think too much about it. I won't do that again in the future."

These people are just minions who follow orders.

But behind them there may be several families, husbands, sons and fathers who are eagerly awaiting their safe return.

She now has extraordinary powers granted by the master of the temple and can kill many people easily, but she should not take the lives of the weak at will.

Some things really do not warrant the death penalty.

When she was doing hard labor under the nun Ci'an, she didn't know how terrified and desperate she would have been if she had met a big shot who wanted to kill her for a trivial matter.

She took this truth to heart.

But she still couldn't figure out something, so she couldn't help asking:

"But Master, won't they attract more enemies to retaliate against us?"

Chen Qingzhu saw Huiyun standing aside and listening for a while, so he said:

"Huiyun, come and tell Huiming about the situation in Nandu City."

After all, Huiming grew up in the countryside and a nunnery and did not receive much education. He also needed to gain some knowledge about the officialdom and court.

In this regard, Huiyun has a very rich knowledge reserve.

"Yes, Master."

Huiyun took the order and began to explain to Huiming the current situation in Nandu City.

In short, all officials who wield military power are followers of the master.

The eunuch and his entourage went to the southern capital, but could not find any help, and finally had to return to the capital in disgrace.

Huiming suddenly realized.

Huiyun added:

"Now that we are on our home turf, it's fine to spare their lives. If it were their home turf, these people would naturally be eradicated decisively as you said, to avoid causing greater trouble."

It then extends to the temple master's statement about the crime worthy of death and the situation in which one must be killed, and gives a more detailed explanation.

Huiming listened very carefully, just like a blade of grass trying hard to absorb the rain, dew and sunshine.

Chen Qingzhu looked at the two of them for a moment, with a smile on his face, then turned around and went back to continue practicing.

Eunuch Liu and others rushed straight to Liang Bao's mansion as soon as they got down the mountain.

As for Liang Bao, as soon as he got home, he immediately closed the door and checked his body. Seeing that he had really recovered to be a normal person, he was so excited that he stayed up all night but was still full of energy.

He shaved his growing beard, put on the makeup that eunuchs often put on, painted his face snow-white to hide the marks left by the roots of his beard, and wore a stand-up collar shirt to cover his more obvious Adam's apple. Then he went out to continue working on the case with the officials from the Dali Temple.

Now with His Majesty's order, we can investigate anything openly and the process is much faster than before.

They have already obtained a lot of evidence of Tan Song's crimes and are currently interrogating Tan Song himself for a confession.

It's obvious that Your Majesty wants to deal with Tan Song as soon as possible.

Therefore, these two aspects are basically carried out at the same time.

However, Tan Song was also a stubborn man. He was still waiting for his family to rescue him, and he refused to confess, which cost Liang Bao a lot of effort.

When I returned home after a tiring day, I heard the servant say that a eunuch from the palace would come to visit in the afternoon and was waiting in the flower hall.

Liang Bao didn't even change his clothes and went to meet the person immediately.

Seeing that it was Eunuch Liu, a popular figure in the Imperial Concubine's palace, Liang Bao warmly entertained him.

After all, the Imperial Noble Consort was in power, and the eunuchs were all petty, so it was natural that they would not offend a popular figure like Eunuch Liu if they could avoid it.

However, when he inquired about the other party's purpose, he learned that Eunuch Liu had a conflict with the Taoist priests of Cihang Temple and intended to take revenge, so he came to him to borrow troops, so that he could lead the troops to flatten Cihang Temple and severely teach the temple master and the Taoist priests a lesson.

The enthusiasm and hospitality on Liang Bao's face suddenly faded.

He cursed inwardly, damn it, Eunuch Liu was seeking death himself and yet he was dragging him down with him!

He is different from Eunuch Liu now. He has recovered and become a normal person. He will have a lot of good days in the future!

Not to mention that he has already boarded the Cihang Temple's boat and has no plans to get off.

Even if he did not serve the temple master, he would never go against such a god-like person.

Not to mention anything else, just relying on the master's incredibly fast body movements and the ability to throw people into the sky at will, it would be easy for him to kill the enemy leader among thousands of troops.

Not to mention taking a thousand soldiers, even if you take the entire garrison battalion, I'm afraid the leader will also lose his head.

Thinking of this, he said tactfully:

"Eunuch Liu, the Cihang Temple didn't say they wouldn't hand over the person. It's just that the person happened to be out. It can't be considered as disobeying the Imperial Concubine. There's no need to make such a big fuss, right?"

Eunuch Liu immediately became unhappy and said with glaring eyes:

"Why, Eunuch Liang doesn't want to borrow troops?"

Liang Bao looked embarrassed:

"If it were any other time, I would definitely lend it to you if you asked. But now, everyone in the Southern Capital is praising your majesty for his wisdom. If we lead troops to oppress the civilians at this critical moment, wouldn't that be a disgrace to your majesty?"

"If His Majesty blames us then, it won't be good for the Imperial Concubine either!"

Eunuch Liu narrowed his eyes and looked at Liang Bao.

With so many high-sounding excuses, and even bringing up His Majesty, to put it bluntly, they are unwilling to lend troops!

"Eunuch Liang, you have to think carefully. Our family is here on behalf of the Imperial Noble Consort! If you don't give our family face, then you are not giving face to the Imperial Noble Consort. If the Imperial Noble Consort remembers you, can you bear it?"

Eunuch Liu threatened openly.

Liang Bao sneered in his heart.

Bah, in front of the master, the imperial concubine means nothing!

She is just a favored concubine who rose to power by giving birth to children.

Even for a eunuch like him, it would only take half an hour for the temple master to recover into a normal person.

If the master of the temple takes action, it would be no problem for Your Majesty to have many children like a normal man.

By that time, the Imperial Noble Consort would be just one of His Majesty's many ordinary concubines.

Although he thought so in his heart, Liang Bao still spoke politely:

"After all, we belong to His Majesty, so we can only take the tasks assigned by His Majesty as our top priority. Now, I can only ask the Imperial Concubine to bear with it for a while!"

But even so, Eunuch Liu was so angry that his face was distorted.

He never expected that he was waiting for Liang Bao to borrow troops to slap him in the face, but even after he made it so clear, Liang Bao still didn't give him any face and refused to budge!

"Good! You are so good, Liang Bao! Just wait for me, I will definitely tell the Royal Concubine your words truthfully!"

Eunuch Liu made some harsh remarks and left with a flick of his sleeves.

Of course, in order to prevent revenge from Liang Bao, he boarded the ship overnight with a few servants and immediately rushed to the capital to report to the Imperial Concubine.
