The cannon fodder stepmother dressed as the villain Zai Zai

Chapter 23 The Butler’s Plan

Is this a feared bandit? ?

Simply a loser!
Count on them?Song Wentong felt like his brain was filled with water!

He sighed secretly in his heart, but did not show it on his face. He still tried hard to maintain a calm expression. He stopped and said to the two people beside him:
"Look, that is the eldest lady of our Hou Mansion, Xu Yaqin, and the one next to her is the third lady, Jiang Yuwei."

"Oh, that's her." Zhao Wuyang raised his head and glanced at the wife of the Hou Mansion. She was indeed naturally beautiful and beautiful, just like a fairy descending from the earth.

Xu Yaqin soon spotted Song Wentong and others walking towards her. Before she could speak, Jiang Yuwei next to her looked startled and asked in her voice:
"Steward Song, what are you doing here? And the two of them?"

Just as Song Wentong was about to speak, the two people next to him introduced themselves before him.

The dashing young general saluted and said:

"To tell you two ladies, I am Lu Jingming, the general beside the Marquis."

Lu Jingming? !

Jiang Yuwei had no reaction when he heard the name, but Xu Yaqin frowned and realized that things were not simple.

She was secretly surprised, wasn't Lu Jingming the villain who had been hidden in the original novel?Although he appeared to be loyal and followed Sheng Lixuan without any regrets, in fact he was very ambitious.

In the end, he betrayed the Qingdu Houfu and climbed up on the bones of everyone in the Houfu. He was an extremely sinister, gloomy and evil villain!

Xu Yaqin's heart pounded when the living villain appeared in front of her.She tried her best to control her facial expression so as not to reveal any flaws.

Jiang Yuwei said cheerfully:

"I've heard about you. You've made a lot of contributions to the court, young general."

Lu Jingming smiled faintly: "Madam, you praised me. In the final analysis, Mr. Hou is a good leader."

After seeing the conversation between the two ended, Zhao Wuyang spoke out:

"Hello madams, I am the archery master invited by Master Sheng to teach the young master. My name is Zhao Wuyang."

Jiang Yuwei had heard of this name and looked at it curiously: "I know you. We are a famous marksman in Yandu City."

Xu Yaqin noticed something was wrong at this time, raised her eyes and said: "Master Zhao, shouldn't you be teaching the young master archery in the Marquis' Mansion? Why are you here now, but what's wrong with the young master?"

Needless to say, Xu Yaqin had already guessed [-]% to [-]% of the answers before the uncles in front of her opened their mouths.The only one who can get them to go out together is probably the young master of the Hou Mansion. This kid must have caused some trouble again.

Zhao Wuyang's expression changed slightly when he heard this, and he looked at Xu Yaqin beside him with approval in his eyes: "As expected of the eldest lady. You already knew what happened before we even spoke."

"No wonder you can cure the young master," Zhao Wuyang said anxiously: "Madam, since you have guessed it, you hope to come back with us quickly."

Xu Yaqin's face was calm: "You don't need to tell us, we are also planning to return to the Hou Mansion, but before that, these bandits have to be sent to the government."

"Bandits?" Zhao Wuyang and Lu Jingming looked at each other, and they both asked: "I heard from the second master, aren't the ladies treating that crazy woman? How could they meet a bandit?"

"It's a long story, and it's related to this matter. I'll talk to you in detail when I get back to the Hou Mansion." Xu Yaqin replied, and glanced at Liu Qingxue, who was still in stable condition.

Song Wentong on the side took advantage of the few people talking and not paying attention to him, and hid a personal dagger in his sleeve in a blind spot.Then, he moved quietly, walked to the group of bandits, and quietly threw the dagger near them.After a while, one of the bandits discovered the dagger that had fallen from the sky. Seeing that no one was paying attention, he quietly picked it up, held it in his hand, and slowly cut the rope.

Xu Yaqin kept the story short: "To put it simply, this bandit pretended to be a fourth-rank official of the imperial court and had countless lives on his hands."

"Okay," Lu Jingming volunteered, "Don't bother the two ladies with this matter. I will personally send them to the government later. The two ladies should go back and take care of the young master."

"Then there's General Lao Lu." Xu Yaqin nodded.

"The affairs of the Qingdu Marquis Mansion are my business. There is no need for the two ladies to be so outspoken. Please leave as soon as possible."

"Who is this?" Several people's eyes suddenly caught sight of Liu Qingxue behind them. She didn't seem to be from the Hou Mansion.

Xu Yaqin said: "This is the third level test question that Mr. Sheng gave us. She is the crazy woman. Now she has returned to normal. We are preparing to take her to meet the three examiners."

Everyone has heard about it for a long time. Regarding the incredible difficulty of this third level, everyone shook their heads when they heard it.Now what Xu Yaqin said is that this beautiful and sane woman is actually the woman who has been crazy in Yandu City for many years?
Several people were stunned. Even Song Wentong was surprised and his face could not help but sink.

No, this shows that it is impossible to pass the test, and you guys actually passed it.

What kind of magic was used to make that crazy woman return to normal?No, this is magic, right?

"Ma'am, is this serious?" Song Wentong became interested. He immediately walked up to Liu Qingxue and took a look. After careful identification, he nodded and confirmed to the two people behind him:

"Yes, this is indeed the crazy woman."

"Oh, she is indeed the eldest lady of the Hou Mansion, she has such ability. Zhao really admires her."

Lu Jingming's face moved slightly. He had long heard Mr. Sheng nagging in front of him about how difficult this third level was. It was impossible to complete. Then the women from each family would have no choice but to go home, but now he saw... …

There was actually someone who could cure that crazy woman's disease. Now the second master's wishful thinking had come to nothing. Lu Jingming's mind had already imagined how angry Sheng Yue would be when he found out about this, and his face turned dark.

While everyone was still communicating, suddenly the bandit who was tied up suddenly stood up and the rope on his body was disconnected.

It's too late, but it's soon.They were ready to pick on the weak and attack Xu Yaqin and the others.

"Humph, little girl, I've hidden myself well, but if you insist on meddling in this business, you'll cost me your life."

The scene suddenly became chaotic, with dozens of ferocious bandits running straight towards Xu Yaqin and Jiang Yuwei.

"Ah - madam! What's going on? Aren't they tied up?"

Jiang Yuwei was startled and hurriedly hugged her maid and Liu Qingxue.

Xu Yaqin also looked confused: "It's strange, are these guys so strong? They can break free. Xuan He shouldn't be so careless."

"No!" Xuan He quickly wanted to stop them, but something happened suddenly and she was surrounded by several bandits and couldn't get away.

However, fortunately, these bandits were all bare-handed and without weapons. If all of them were armed with weapons, the scene would be terrible.
