Chapter 47 Heavy Rain
When Qing He found out that the Third Prince was already well, she felt very sorry and said, "Miss, why don't you just kill him? It seems like there would be no loss this way!"

Mu Qingqing laughed, "How could there be no losses? Wouldn't this scare people half to death?"

"Miss, you are too kind."

Qinghe muttered softly.

Mu Qingqing smiled but said nothing, "I'm not being merciful, I just think it's too easy for him to die like this, I want to make his life worse than death!"

There was a chill in the voice, and Banxia and Qinghe looked at each other unconsciously.

Even Master Lu was surprised. She had always known that Mu Qingqing hated the Third Prince and even wanted to kill him.

But Mu Qingqing was a woman who lived in a secluded house and seldom saw the Third Prince, so where did her hatred come from?

In recent times, Wang Jiacheng has been moving very quickly and has started training new people. At the same time, two stores have been opened in Beijing.

At the same time, the escort company started escorting the goods, and Xu Jin was the escort.

The beggars and homeless children in the capital city suddenly became rosy-cheeked, but they still begged every day.

When you have nothing to do, just squat somewhere, close your eyes, and take a look from time to time.

All the big and small events in the capital began to converge on Wang Jiacheng.

Unfortunately, it is not enough. Only with this method, the efficiency is too low and not much intelligence can be collected.

The newly trained children are very young. Although they are learning martial arts and Xiaogong, it takes a lot of time.

Mu Qingqing was short of manpower, so she told her eldest brother that she wanted some retired soldiers to help train new recruits and also to assist in escorting the goods.

Mu Jingyi naturally knew this, but few people were willing to retire, and those who did retire would be disabled.

Mu Qingqing knew his concerns and said that she was willing to take over these soldiers.

Mu Jingyi was moved and tried to persuade his sister.

"Little sister, although you have good intentions, these disabled sergeants are of little use, and it may even be unfair to you to support them."

Mu Qingqing sympathized with them, but she would not joke about her own future. She really thought these soldiers were suitable.

"Brother, I've thought about it. Intelligence gathering doesn't require extremely good skills. Sometimes being good in other areas is also fine. So feel free to help me find someone!"

Mu Jingyi saw that his sister was indeed not embarrassed, so he agreed, "Then how much do you need?"

"There won't be many people in the early stage. We will need about 100 people for now. We may need more in a few months, so please keep an eye out for me. It doesn't matter if you have a disability, as long as you can take care of yourself and exercise normally."

Mu Jingyi nodded, and couldn't help but voice out his concerns, "Little sister, is it too big? Is your third brother's profit enough? I still have some money, how about giving it to you?"

Mu Qingqing chuckled, "Big brother is the best. If I'm not sure about what you want, King Han has sent a lot of silver over, so don't worry, it's enough."

When Mu Jingyi heard the name of King Han, his heart tightened. Could it be that the cabbages at home were going to be eaten by pigs?
"My little sister and King Han have a good relationship?"

Mu Qingqing nodded and shook her head, "It's just a cooperative relationship. We've met a few times."

Mu Jingyi did not relax at all. He knew King Han very well. The fact that he did this showed that King Han trusted Mu Qingqing very much.

But according to what Qingqing said, the two of them only met a few times, so they must have some plan.

"No, Qingqing, next time you meet King Han, you must have someone with you, or let a few of us follow you."

"Remember, you are still young, and you can't let pigs eat your cabbage."

Mu Qingqing stared at her serious elder brother in a daze. When she came to her senses, she burst into laughter. "Brother, I suspect you are talking about me. With King Han's looks, he is not a pig. I am the one!"

Mu Jingyi had to admit that King Han's face alone was enough to drive all women crazy.

And who is King Han? He is a god of war who is more powerful than his own father. There are no messy women around him and his harem is clean. It is really hard to find fault with him as a son-in-law.

But he didn't want his younger sister to be like this. She hadn't passed the imperial examination yet and wasn't an adult yet, so it wouldn't be okay for her to take advantage of him so early.

"That won't work either. You're still young. You need to wait a few more years before discussing marriage."

No, I will tell the second and third brothers when the time comes, and also tell mother and ask her to look after my younger sister.

Mu Qingqing did not refute, she had no intention of having anything to do with King Han. When she returned, it started raining in the capital, and as soon as she reached the room, heavy rain poured down instantly.

Banxia and Qinghe breathed a sigh of relief when they saw Mu Qingqing and Master Lu coming back, and quickly ordered people to fetch water for a bath.

"Miss, Master Lu, it's a good thing you guys are back, otherwise we would be soaked to the skin."

Qinghe helped Mu Qingqing change her clothes and lit the small stove in the room.

Banxia had asked the kitchen to prepare ginger soup long ago and it was brought over at this moment.

"Miss, Master Lu, please drink some ginger soup to get rid of the cold. Don't catch a cold and get sick."

"it is good!"

The two of them drank ginger soup slowly, watching the heavy rain outside hitting the window.

"The rain is so heavy, I don't know when it will stop!"

Mu Qingqing paused, as if she had overlooked something.

It must be something very important, otherwise he wouldn't be so uneasy.

Banxia and Qinghe were still talking about the heavy rain in my ears.

“What if the rain doesn’t stop and people can’t go out?”

"I heard from my wife that she has sent people to buy meat and vegetables. It should be able to last for a few days!"

The rain never stops? It never stops...

Mu Qingqing stood up suddenly, her face extremely pale.

"Master..."

She grabbed Master Lu's arm, her whole body trembling slightly.

Master Lu was also nervous when he saw her panicking. "Qingqing, what's wrong?"

"Can you contact the prince? I...I heard from Xiaoli that the prince is now in Kui County attacking bandits, right?"

"Yes, is Xiao so powerful now? Can he know such a secret?"

Master Lu said in surprise.

"Now is not the time to worry about this. The bridge in Kui County has been in disrepair for a long time and it has rained heavily. The county magistrate is a corrupt official and has never repaired it."

"If the heavy rain continues for a few days, the bridge will collapse. If someone advises King Han to attack the mountain stronghold at that time, he must pass through the bridge. Once it collapses, there will be countless casualties."

Mu Qingqing's voice was trembling and her eyes were filled with fear. In her previous life, it was at this time that King Han led his soldiers to attack the bandits.

At that time, King Han disagreed to attack in the rain, and his advisers advised him that the bandits were most relaxed when it rained.

At that time, many generals thought it made sense, and finally King Han had to agree. When the soldiers were crossing the bridge, the bridge collapsed, killing nearly 300 people.

Because of this incident, many officials in the court jointly impeached King Han, and King Han's reputation plummeted. People thought that he disregarded the lives of his soldiers in order to win.

The third prince then stood up and won over many people, laying the foundation for the third prince.

Master Lu's heart skipped a beat. Although she didn't think Xiao Neng was so powerful, Mu Qingqing mentioned several key points: the bridge had been in disrepair for many years, there was no one to manage it, and the county magistrate was a corrupt official.

King Han's position in the court was already awkward. If he encountered this situation...

She stood up suddenly and put on her raincoat again.

"Banxia, ​​if I can't come back in the next few days, you must protect the young lady well."

"Yes, Master Lu."

Mu Qingqing stopped the person who was about to leave and said, "Master, I'll ask the kitchen to make some dry food. You can ride the horse out."

Master Lu patted her hands, "Don't worry, I can buy it along the way, don't worry!"
