Zhutian: My skills are not serious

Chapter 706 Who understands the joy of stealing the job of the King of Hell?
Chu Pingsheng patted the face of the Beiliang spy chief who was in charge of assassination, poisoning, spying, intelligence, torture and other tasks, and stood up and said to Feng Lingzhi, who had just been promoted to the commander of the Great Snow Dragon Cavalry. He didn't know how to face the current situation, his forehead and palms were sweating, and he rubbed his hands on his chest armor again and again: "You have half an hour to find someone who can skin him, and then find a leather craftsman to make a blanket for Li Junshi, who has endured humiliation. If you can't do it, you will go down there with your predecessor to accompany him."

Feng Lingzhi's calves shivered, and without saying a word, he pulled two trusted men and ran to the south of the city. Beiliang had no shortage of professionals who could skin people, and there were even more craftsmen who could use animal fur to make leather goods. Lin Tanhua's order did not make things difficult for them.

Ye Xizhen supported himself on the ground with his hands and ran towards the silver spear that had sunk into the ruins, wanting to give himself a quick death. Chu Pingsheng grabbed him from mid-air, and with a puff, the bones in his hands were shattered and he fell to the ground.

"Only intact leather is valuable. How can I give him a defective one as a gift?"

He looked at Li Yishan who was skinning Yao Jian alive with his sword and said, "Am I cruel?"

"..."

The soldiers looked at each other angrily, wondering how he could have the nerve to ask such a question. Look at what he did. How cruel? Butcher, okay.

Chu Pingsheng didn't care about their looks. He walked to Li Yishan and admired his knife skills carefully. "If I kill them with a knife, Xu Xiao will set things right and kill you by slow slicing. The more I go too far, the more extreme means he will use to kill you, so as to calm the resentment and anger in the army and win the love of the soldiers. For example, after slow slicing, he will chop you into meat stuffing and wrap you into dumplings, and then eat them bite by bite to show his hatred for you to the Beiliang army and people. After all, it was you who advocated compromise with me, and he refused. You can ask your confidants to put Xu Fengnian under house arrest and force him to surrender with the prince's life."

Li Yishan stabbed Yao Jian in the chest with his knife. Feng Shui Master Beiliang began to vomit blood. Chu Pingsheng had to close his acupuncture points to stop the bleeding and fed him another pill to keep him alive. With a smile on his face, he blamed Li Yishan for his unsteady hand holding the knife. He said that he would only help him this time. If he made another mistake, the military advisor would ask the military advisor to choose one of the armies outside the city, including the Fengzi Camp, the Daxue Dragon Cavalry, the Tiefutu, and the Yugu Camp. Before lunch, he said that he would help the prince prepare the ingredients for making tea. One should not go back on his word.

"Yuan Zuozong and Chen Zhibao are nothing, they are so weak, okay? You, Li Yishan, are Xu Xiao's most loyal dog." Chu Pingsheng stroked the old dog's head and said, "When we were fighting for the world, you gave us advice and schemes, and in the end you sacrificed yourself to the Xu family, taking all the blame and infamy in exchange for Xu Xiao's reputation. Li Yishan, I am moved by your loyalty."

Li Yishan's hands were very slippery and his back was soaked. It was not like the water that soaked his back just now, but it was soaked with sweat. He couldn't understand why Lin Qing, a young man in his early twenties, could see through every move he made?
"Okay, I'm almost done with my anger. There are only two things left. As long as they satisfy me, the grudge against Xu Xiao forcing Cao Changqing to kill me will be over."

"Please say."

"Look, I cured Chu Lushan and Qi Dangguo of their disabilities. I'll give you two intact people in exchange for two disabled people in your palace. Is that okay?"

Li Yishan looked at the cucumber that was still whipping Xu Weixiong, and then looked at the green ant that was talking to Zhao Fengya.

Chu Pingsheng said, "Don't look at it, it's the bluebird and the sweet potato."

Li Yishan thought for a moment and responded, "Okay."

One of these two women was the assassin arranged by Wu Su for her son, and the other was the assassin arranged by Xu Xiao for her son. It was very reasonable to use them to exchange for the safety of the father and son.

"The Tingchao Pavilion is destroyed, but the secret books are still there. Clean them out and build a library at the site of the Sandong Building. Open these secret books to the world. You and Shuxiu will decide on the borrowing system. Once the plan is finalized, give it to me for review."

"The knight broke the law with force. If the Liyang royal family knew about this, they would not let it go."

"Are the lives of Xu Xiao and his son in my hands now, or in the hands of the Liyang royal family?"

"Ok."

Chu Pingsheng patted his shoulder and said, "Don't stop. Keep cutting until you have cut a thousand times."

He stood up and told Shu Xiu about building the library, and ordered her to take over from Huanggua. After finishing the remaining 300 whips, he walked towards the three maids. At lunch, Zhao Fengya was too embarrassed to hide her elbow, so she put a roasted chicken leg in her sleeve as a reserve food. She had been beating Green Ant for the whole afternoon and was growling with hunger, so she secretly took it out without the knowledge of her master to please the senior maid. Green Ant disliked the bad environment and had no appetite, so she refused to eat.

"Zhao Fengya, did you steal my things?"

Paji.

She shuddered and the chicken leg fell to the ground. Zhao Fengya scratched her head frantically. If it were another environment, she would definitely pick it up, shake off the dust and put it in her mouth. Here, the ground was covered with blood and the chicken leg fell on it. Since she had been hungry for nine meals in three days, she knew what it felt like to have no food in her stomach. The maid princess swore that she would never let herself fall into this situation again. She just looked at the stored food with resentment on her face.

"Here, this is the reward you gave me at noon. I didn't want to eat it, so it doesn't count as stealing."

"What about the big elbow?"

Zhao Fengya blushed and shook her hands wildly: "I put the elbow back, you can't use it to punish me. We agreed that you won't eat if you do something wrong." Lu Yi touched her delicate face and thought to herself, is the wicked master who picked on the hungry maid in her words the same person as the one who destroyed half of Lingzhou City to vent her anger?
"Cucumber, stop fighting and go back to Wutong Garden."

Huanggua exhaled a breath of foul air, stopped, and looked at the scars and bones. Under normal circumstances, Xu Weixiong would have been dead. She rubbed her sore wrist and scolded her for being stubborn and insisting on being a lowly child. She thought that her master asked her to go back to Wutong Garden to spare Xu Weixiong. Turning back, she saw Sister Fan found a new whip, walked up to her and started whipping her, much more cruelly than her and Green Ant. The bitch turned her head to dodge the whip and screamed heartbreakingly, scaring the full moon back into the clouds.

"Stop...stop hitting me...please..."

Second Miss Xu is actually begging for mercy?
Huanggua admired her very much. Sister Fan slapped herself hard, and whipped Xu Weixiong even harder. She and Green Ant whipped the bitch for an entire afternoon, her wrists aching and her bones feeling like they were falling apart, but she still couldn't make the bitch beg for mercy. After a few slaps from Sister Fan, she took away the bitch's spirit.

"gone."

Chu Pingsheng ignored Xu Weixiong and mounted the Fire Kirin, which had returned to its sitting position. He patted the back seat, and before Huanggua could react, the Green Ant jumped up, hugged its master's waist tightly, and put its head against his back. She was as happy as a little woman in love, which made Huanggua grit her teeth and mutter, "You're quick to act!" She angrily slammed the Red Chi into Zhao Fengya's arms, pulled her onto the Flying General's back, soared into the air, and flew north.

……

After General Fei's efforts, half of Prince Liang's Mansion was destroyed, except for Wutong Garden, where the pig-like koi in the pond outside the Moon Cave Gate were carefree. The ground was all yellow, and the Wutong trees in the courtyard were bathed in moonlight, casting thick shadows.

Ergou and Choudiao arrived at almost the same time. Chu Pingsheng asked Huanggua to tell the chef Liu the names of the dishes, asked Luyi to soak the big cinnamon bark brought back at noon, and asked Zhao Fengya to help him undress and take a bath. Princess Liyang, who had never been served by anyone, was so upset that Huanggua gave her the job of buckling the jade belt at noon. She was trembling and her little hands did so much useless work. Undress and take a bath? He did it on purpose, he must have done it on purpose! He deliberately made things difficult for the new maid, wanting to score twice, and punished her by starving for three days and nine meals.

Half an hour later, Chu Pingsheng returned to the room with messy hair, and Huanggua helped him comb his hair while holding back a smile. Zhao Fengya was soaked to the skin, blushing and bowing her head, saying that she had no experience and still had a lot of room for improvement. Could they negotiate and punish her less, or go hungry for six meals in three days?

Speaking of eating, four servants entered the house dragging red lacquer food boxes. After getting permission, they opened the food boxes, took out the exquisite dishes and placed them on the rosewood dining table in the outer room. There were pot-roasted carp, fried white shrimps, braised liver tips, tofu meatballs, assorted platters, steamed pumpkin, roasted lilies, and a big bowl of steaming hot pork tripe soup. There were eight dishes for four people. It was obvious that Chef Liu worked very hard. Less than half an hour after Huanggua came back, he had delivered a sumptuous dinner to Wutong Garden. He must have known the fate of several clerks in the Tea Department and had a new understanding of Lin Tanhua's status in the palace.

Huanggua helped him fix his hair, picked up the comb made of fine ox horn from the dressing box and combed the long hair hanging down behind him. Chu Pingsheng waved his hand and said, "Let's eat first. The soup won't taste good if it gets cold."

He sat down at the main table. The clumsy maid in a yellow skirt thought the dishes and chopsticks that the servants had touched were not clean, so she went to the yard to wash them again with hot water. Zhao Fengya stood in the inner room, staring at the exquisite food on the table on the other side of the beaded curtain. She was so hungry that she drooled. Thinking back to the reserve food that fell into the pool of blood, she felt very wronged.

Chu Pingsheng waved his hand, but she didn't move. He frowned and glared at her. When she still didn't move, he slammed the table in anger and told her to go over and eat. Princess Liyang, who was worried every day about being punished and hungry for not doing her job well as a maid, finally came to her senses and ran over happily, thinking about how the palace maid had served her. She stretched out her white, fresh little hands, carefully pinched the heads and tails to peel off the shrimp skins, put the white shrimp meat in a small white porcelain dish with a clean cucumber, picked it up with ivory chopsticks, and then fed it to his mouth with her hands below.

Huanggua nodded, thinking that she had trained well. Apart from the quality of service, at least in terms of being well-behaved, Zhao Fengya could be a good apprentice. She thought with a bit of evil interest, if the emperor on the throne saw her precious daughter trying her best to please the young master of the Lin family, what kind of expression would he have? It must be very interesting.

"slow!"

Green Ant had just finished cleaning the water stains in the bathroom and put the Confucian robe that Chu Pingsheng had worn during the day into the wooden tub to soak. As soon as he entered the room, he saw Zhao Fengya picking up shrimps and putting them into the young master's mouth. He quickly shouted loudly, and the princess was so scared that she was afraid that she would not do well and be punished to starve. Her hand trembled, and the shrimps fell on the pajamas that her master had just changed. She felt like the sky was falling, and she was going to starve tonight.

Huanggua quickly pulled her away, picked up the shrimp with a silk handkerchief embroidered with small yellow flowers, and threw it into the food bowl, glaring at her. Green Ant did not explain, but went up to pick up another pair of ivory chopsticks, picked up a bite of food from each plate and put it into his mouth, chewed it carefully and swallowed it, then rolled up his sleeves, held the green glaze lotus spoon and scooped a spoonful of pork belly soup with tuckahoe, yam and ginseng as auxiliary ingredients into his mouth, tasted it, and nodded after confirming that there was no problem: "It's not poisonous."

Zhao Fengya felt that being a maid was actually a very challenging and professional job, and was no easier than having the young master ask her to recite poems and songs.

"Okay, don't bother with that in the future. There is no poison in the world that can threaten me."

In Chu Pingsheng's opinion, seeing them act so seriously once or twice gives him a sense of accomplishment, but if they come every day and eat the same meal every time, it will not be a pleasure but a trouble.

"If any of you are poisoned in the future, just give me a kiss on the mouth, and you'll be fine."

Can kissing detoxify?

Cucumber and Green Ant looked at each other, their pretty faces slightly reddened, wondering if their master was hinting at them by saying this?
"Can we eat now?"

Chu Pingsheng didn't know that they were overthinking it. He pointed at the dishes on the table and hooked his finger at Zhao Fengya: "Continue."

Princess Li Yang was very happy. She peeled another shrimp and, following the instructions, held it in her little hands and brought it to her master's mouth.
