    "Are you very hot?" Yunyao handed over a handkerchief to Hu Si to wipe her sweat.

    The more Hu Si looked at it, the more she felt that there was a devil hidden under Yunyao's innocent expression. She carefully took the handkerchief and said, "It's indeed a bit hot."

    Yunyao thought that it was almost winter, but she did not expose it: "Although the accounts have been briefly checked, the inventory is not there yet. I also need to ask your lady to check it with me and finally sign. After all, I am from you.  The two of us should check how many things you put in my hands when I took them from the Inner Courtyard."

    So cruel, Hu Si immediately knew that she was in trouble. If the goods were really right, wouldn't her own shortfall be exposed?  Although she is the cousin of the Prime Minister, she cannot imagine the consequences.

    "When are you going to start?"

    "The day after tomorrow, let's choose a good and auspicious day to make sacrifices and then check the inventory."

    Hu Si immediately thought that she still had two days left: "Okay, I'm a little uncomfortable now, then we'll see you the day after tomorrow." After that, she left.

    Hu Si didn¡¯t have many choices. Either confess, set fire to the inner courtyard and die without any evidence, or return the things.

    "Choose one out of three," Yunyao thinks so.

    However, Yunyao's experience in palace fighting was still insufficient, and she did not realize that Hu Si had allies. In Guan Zhong's backyard, she did not fight alone, but acted in a small group.

    Hu Si had embezzled so much and distributed it to the people in the small group. Seeing that the incident was about to be exposed, they immediately got together to discuss what to do.

    ¡°¡­¡± The three women were all on pins and needles.

    "I originally thought that a cook had no ability, but now I realize that I underestimated her." Hu Si said coldly: "We don't have much time, and we must think of a way before the day after tomorrow. Tell us what to do?"

    "Kill her, she's just a cook anyway. As long as she doesn't cause trouble, the key to the inner courtyard is still yours."

    It¡¯s not that Hu Si didn¡¯t think about it, she just said: ¡°After all, she is the one favored by the Prime Minister, and I still want her to be an official after hearing the Prime Minister¡¯s tone.¡±

    ¡°I really don¡¯t understand how the Prime Minister of the State could take a fancy to her. She has no appearance, no figure, but she just knows how to cook. What¡¯s so great about her.¡±

    "Don't complain, complaining can't solve the problem." Hu Si said, what she needs now is a solution to the problem, not complaining.

    "I still stick to my opinion, assassination. I have a suitable candidate here."

    "You mean Chunying?"

    "That's right, she's that silly woman. She usually dances with guns and sticks. She's not like a woman, but I'm kind to her. She said she would do something for me. Is it easy for her to kill a cook?"

    "I heard that Chunying was the daughter of a swordsmith of Jin State. Because the sword she forged injured the king of Jin State, their family fled to Qi State for refuge. Later, they took refuge under the minister of the state and dedicated their daughter to the state.  Mutually?"

    "That's right, that's her. She's pretty, but too vulgar. She didn't change her temper after entering the government, so the Prime Minister never favored her. Last time her father was sick and wanted to ask to see the Prime Minister, but the Prime Minister  The prime minister was not at home, so she begged me and I gave her some money. Afterwards, she said she was willing to repay her with her life. I thought she was quite capable, so I might as well let her kill Yunyao."

    "But" Hu Si was still hesitating.

    "We can arrange it this way, let Chunying go find trouble with Yunyao, let them quarrel when the time comes, and then let Chunying stab Yunyao to death. This is a murder that happened entirely because of a quarrel and has nothing to do with us."

    Hu Si¡¯s eyes lit up and she thought this was a good idea. The quarrel between the two escalated to a life case, without anyone noticing.

    "Can Chunying be trusted? He won't betray us."

    "Don't worry, she won't lie to bring shame to the family. As long as she agrees, she will definitely not betray us."

    In this case, Hu Si made up his mind and said sternly: "Let's do it this way. You must explain it neatly and without leaving any flaws."

    "no problem."

    Chunying is sixteen years old this year, the daughter of a sword-making family. She has liked swords since she was a child, but it is not helpful to have swords in the backyard, so she can only live on the lowest monthly salary. She is content with poverty.  While other women were weaving, she was practicing swordsmanship. She could make some money by weaving, but practicing swordsmanship would only waste food.

    But even if she is hungry, Chunying will keep her sword sparkling.

    When Hu Si¡¯s accomplices found Chunying and asked her to kill people, the skinny girl did not refuse or agree, but asked: "Is this person guilty of many evil deeds?"

    "Not really, he's just a cook."

     "Then what has she done that warrants death?" You have to give yourself a reason to kill. If the other person is the person who deserves to be killed, then Chunying is obligated.

    "As I said, she is just a cook. She hasn't done anything bad. It's just that she meddles in too many things, so she deserves to die." "Will you kill her or not?"

    Killing a cook who did nothing bad?  Chunying was resistant in her heart.

    Seeing the girl's troubled expression, Hu Si's accomplice coldly threatened: "Have you forgotten who helped you rescue your father? You promised to complete something for me, and now I want you to kill him."  Do you want to break your promise alone?"

    I don¡¯t want to break the promise, and I don¡¯t want to kill the person.  Contradictory, in the end Chunying decided to fulfill his promise, because in life, keeping promises is the bottom line of life.

    After a simple psychological struggle, Chunying agreed to the other party's request: "I understand."

    "Remember, don't betray me. If you are caught, you must resist all the blame."

    Chunying said simply: "After I kill the other party, I will cut my neck and commit suicide. Killing is because of the promise, killing myself is because I killed someone who shouldn't be killed."

    Hearing what Chunying said, Hu Si's colleagues suddenly laughed. If both of them died, it would be a good thing: "She must be killed before tomorrow." "And you have to find trouble. After the quarrel,  Kill her again, so that no one will suspect that you killed someone intentionally. They will only think that you killed her out of anger, and I will not be suspected. But remember?"

    Chunying nodded, then took the sword and went to Zaoyunyao, her face was heavy, because her life was about to end early, but in order to fulfill her promise and repay the kindness of saving her father, she would not regret it.

    Chunying didn¡¯t know that she had been targeted by a gaze. It was Dan Ji. She did not allow anyone other than her to attack Yunyao.  So she planned to kill Chunying and Hu Si and the others.

    The only one who can kill Yunyao is herself, no one else can kill her.

    Chunying was determined to die to fulfill her promise, but she didn't know that if she wanted to kill Yunyao, she had to go through Danji first, and this was a difficulty that she couldn't overcome.

    In fact, Danji also knew that Chunying could not kill Yunyao, but after the last conversation, Danji developed a strange possessiveness towards Yunyao.  She just doesn't want anyone with ulterior motives to get close to Yunyao, she wants to have Yunyao to herself.

    Chunying felt hairy on her back, and she always felt as if someone was staring at her.  She couldn't help but tighten her grip on the scabbard. This sword was a gift given to her by her father when she was twelve years old. It had never left her hand for four years.  When I turned around, there was no one behind me. Could it be that I was too nervous?

    After all, it was her first time to kill someone, so she had a hallucination. It must be like this. After all, she didn't expect that the first person she killed would be an ordinary cook with no evil deeds. She imagined that she would eradicate rape with a sword.  Evil is too far apart.  But for the sake of her promise, she had to go, and the conflict in her heart was understandable, so she suspected that it was her uneasiness that led to her suspicion.
