    "OK."

    Just as Luo Jie was about to take the croquette from "Esdeath"'s hand, "Esdeath" suddenly held his head, leaned over slightly and covered his lips with it.

    Ahthis

    Luo Jie couldn't help but open his eyes wide and looked at the "Esdeath" in front of him in surprise, who was obviously familiar from the inside out, but seemed to be a little strange at the moment.

    When did the Queen become so flirtatious?

    "Is it interesting?" "Esdeath" raised his head and seemed to be very satisfied with Luo Jie's reaction. He brushed the long hair hanging by his ears and said with a smile: "I just saw a couple doing this on the roadside.  So I wanted to give it a try"

    It turns out that you are learning and selling now.

    ¡°Wait a minute, the one who lowered his head to feed the meatballs just now is obviously a man, right?

    "Esdeath" What are you expecting in your eyes?  There¡¯s no way I¡¯m going to hit your chest and teeth with my little fists

    "Well, thatit tastes really good. I'll take you to see the fish market and the port."

    Luo Jie coughed slightly and changed the topic.

    After roughly walking around Haiqing City, the carriage returned to the Lord's Mansion again.

    Luo Jie was not in a hurry to get out of the car. He knocked on the window to signal the driver to leave first, and asked "Esdeath": "How do you feel?"

    "Esdeath" thought for a while and gave a truthful evaluation: "Although I don't know much about internal affairs, I can see that you manage the territory quite well. The smiles of the people are real, and there are some things I can say  Something that cannot be produced - but I still don't understand, how can you lead to a night attack like this? As far as I know, they have always only attacked those officials and nobles who are causing trouble for the place and oppressing the people."

    Luo Jie smiled, stretched out his index finger and shook it: "A night attack may be like this, but the top rebels are definitely not."

    "Esdeath" became interested and leaned on the soft backrest of the seat with her legs raised, as if she was listening.

    "The rebels are currently in the south. Although they have captured many cities in the empire, they have only occupied them. The lives of the people have not been fundamentally improved. They have even become more miserable because of the repeated tug-of-war between the empire and the rebels."

    "The reason why the people stay in the rebel-controlled areas is because the rebel high-level officials have drawn a good-looking pie for them. Instead of fleeing to other places and continuing to live a life of oppression and exploitation by officials and nobles, it is better to stay and grit their teeth.  Bet on the future.¡±

    "But the people are also the most pragmatic. Previously, they chose to go all the way with the rebels because there was no way to survive wherever they fled. But what if a place where they can have work and food appears now?"

    "Esdeath" is not the kind of aristocratic lady who is ignorant of the sufferings of the people. She has also experienced hunger and cold since she was a child on the bitter cold border in the north, and she also knows what kind of life the people at the bottom want.

    "Are you talking about Hai Qingcheng?"

    "Yes, according to recent statistics made by local officials, ordinary people from the rebel-controlled areas have begun to appear in Haiqing City. And this is just the beginning. As long as these people have a firm foothold in Haiqing City, they will form a demonstration  The effect is to attract more people from rebel-occupied areas to come to Taitung Province."

    "Whether it is soldiers or logistical support, in the final analysis, wars are fought by people. The rebel forces have continued to expand in recent years entirely because of the support of the people behind them. However, once a large number of people flee, it will directly shake their foundation."

    "Although the rebels are shouting slogans for the people, they are absolutely unwilling to see this peaceful scene appear on the empire's territory. In order to preserve their rights, the top rebels now have only two options - one is to blockade  Roads are strictly prohibited for the people under the rule to go to the imperial-controlled areas; the other is to find ways to destroy Haiqing City and completely cut off the hope in the hearts of the people."

    "The first option is definitely unrealistic. Once a forced blockade is implemented, the rebels will lose the morality they have always flaunted. By then, they will lose not only the people's moral support, but also the military morale will be shaken."

    "So their only choice is to destroy Haiqing City, a rising city of hope."

    "The fastest and most permanent way to destroy Haiqing City is naturally to kill me, the acting lord who created everything."

    "In fact, I have been assassinated by rebel killers once before, but they obviously misjudged the defense strength of the Lord's Mansion and our personal strength, and the dozen or so killers they sent were wiped out."

    ¡°So that¡¯s it, it¡¯s really a good plan.¡±

    "Esdeath" nodded in approval. Although she is more accustomed to using violence to solve problems, she can't??Her appreciation and recognition of wisdom itself.

    She has always doted on Luo Jie, but she does not want her lover to be a waste who always needs to live under her protection.

    But she also knew very well that because of the Teigu [Appearance of the Demon God: Demonic Essence], there was no man in the world who could keep up with her in terms of strength.

    Now Luo Jie has shown extraordinary planning ability and territorial management ability, which to some extent makes up for the regret in her heart.

    "According to the rebel's practice, if an ordinary killer fails to assassinate, an ace night attack will inevitably be sent next."

    The doubts in "Esdeath"'s heart disappeared, she nodded, and suddenly stared into Luo Jie's eyes with an extremely serious expression. The silent silence made the air in the entire carriage seem to condense in an instant.

    Luo Jie had long expected such a scene and smiled calmly: "Just ask whatever you want."

    "Okay, last question, I hope your answer won't disappoint me." "Esdeath" took a deep breath, put his hand on the sword at his waist, and the cold chill shredded the flash in his eyes.  "I heard that you once wiped out thousands of pirates on thirteen islands in the sea in one night without mobilizing the city defense army. This is obviously not something you can do alone - who is helping?"  you?"

    Luo Jie knew that the pirate incident was the only flaw in his plan to manage Haiqing City. Others may not have noticed it, but it would definitely not be hidden from "Esdeath" who is extremely sensitive to battles.

    Fortunately, he was prepared for this. He calmly stared into "Esdeath"'s eyes and responded: "I hired a team of killers."

    "Killer?"

    "Esdeath" was a little surprised. She originally suspected that Luo Jie had reached some kind of deal with some force, or was simply a spy planted by some force within the empire, but she didn't expect to get such an answer.

    "I came here as a bait. I may face assassination from rebels at any time. Even many local nobles want my life. In this case, I hired several experts to protect my safety.  , working for me at the same time, doesn¡¯t seem to be something incomprehensible, right?¡±

    "Esdeath" slowly put down the hand on the hilt of the sword, but still didn't fully believe Luo Jie's explanation.

    "What kind of killer can kill thousands of pirates in one night? Why have I never heard of such a powerful person in the empire?"

    "But the leader of the killer organization said that she is very familiar with you, and we cooked mushrooms together in the wild before."

    Luo Jie's words made "Esdeath"'s eyelids twitch. She subconsciously recalled the shameful scene in her childhood and the first kiss she almost lost.

    "The leader of the killer organization you are talking aboutcouldn't he be a woman with a mole on her left eye?"

    Luo Jie smiled noncommittally, opened the door and jumped out of the carriage, snapping his fingers toward the deserted courtyard.

    "Mailard", wearing the iconic tight-fitting killer outfit, together with the female futon members "Cassandora", "Gilbert", "Taeko", "Mira", "Loris" and others came out of the courtyard one after another.  He jumped out of the window of the nearby mansion and landed on one knee in front of the carriage.

    "Lord Tazmi!"

    "Esdeath"'s expression was a bit complicated, but then a relaxed smile appeared at the corner of her mouth.

    It is indeed the Oberg Killer Association.

    As an organization that has been on the empire's blacklist, "Esdeath" is very familiar with the situation of this killer association named after the God of Death. They have no political stance and are just a group of killing tools that collect money to do things.

    There is just one thing that makes "Esdeath" feel a little strange. She has clearly seen the news in the imperial battle report that all members of the Oberg Killer Association have been destroyed. Why do these people still appear in front of her alive?

    But this doubt only flashed in her mind, after all, it was not important.

    The fact that the Oberg Killer Society still exists in the world means that the battle report she saw was wrong, and it is enough to know this.

    ¡°Esdeath, it¡¯s been ten years since we last met, and you are more beautiful than you were ten years ago.¡±

    "Maillard" stood up, smiled charmingly, and licked his lips at "Esdeath" provocatively.

    "I'm stronger than I was ten years ago." "Esdeath" smiled coldly, the cold air lingered in the raised palm, and the grass under his feet quickly condensed into a piece of frost, "If you dare to do what you did to me last time,  If something happens, I will freeze you and throw you to the iceberg in the far north."
