Farmer’s Wife Has Magic Skills

Chapter 832: Not Worth Mentioning

Editor: Henyee Translations

Tang Jinghong took the cup of tea, now cold, and drank it down in one gulp, finally quelling the restlessness in his heart before reaching for the biscuits.

He offered one to Chu Qingzhi first, “You eat first.”

After Chu Qingzhi ate the biscuit, she urged, “I brought them for you, eat more.”

Tang Jinghong, still holding Chu Qingzhi, nodded. The sweet and fragrant flavor was addictive; he ended up eating five biscuits in a row…

Chu Qingzhi gently brushed the teapot, pouring a cup of tea for lang Jinghong, “Drink some water.”

Tang Jinghong stared at the steaming cup for a moment before taking it and drinking.

He thought to himself, Chu Qingzhi is capable of anything, her power is magical, could she be a fairy descended from heaven?

If Chu Qingzhi really was a fairy, then was this her descent to the mortal world? But for what purpose had she come?

Tang Jinghong couldn’t help but let his thoughts wander…

However, his musings were abruptly interrupted as Shuang’er flew into the room, urgently exclaiming, “Come with me, hurry…”

Chu Qingzhi patted Tang Jinghong’s shoulder, “There’s a situation, let’s go.” Following Shuang’er, they flew out of the window, heading in a specific direction.

From a distance, their graceful and agile figures darted across rooftops like hawks, disappearing in the blink of an eye.

Shuang’er landed on a rooftop, spreading her wings, and pointed down below.

Chu Qingzhi was accustomed to Shuang’er’s cleverness.

But for Tang Jinghong, it was a revelation. He had last seen Shuang’er as a normally intelligent parrot, but now she exceeded avian intelligence, not only speaking but also leading the way and even directing.

How exactly had Chu Qingzhi trained a parrot to this level? If released for gathering intelligence, would the enemy have any secrets left?

She would eventually tell him whether the enemy had any secrets or not.

Voices came from within the house…

“Useless, to fail such a good plan!”

“Master, it was all because of Chu Qingzhi’s interference that disrupted the plan. If not for her, Tang Jinghong would have been dead or severely injured.” “Why keep Chu Qingzhi around then? Why not eliminate her already!” You think Chu Qingzhi is as easy as chopping cabbage? “Master, we can’t kill Chu Qingzhi. Why don’t you find someone more powerful to do it?” Chu Qingzhi is the nightmare of all underworld figures. No one sent to kill her has returned; instead, their attempts have led to their bases being destroyed. That’s why, without being driven to desperation, no one wants to deal with Chu Qingzhi.

It’s also her fame in both the underworld and the legitimate world that makes her business so successful, otherwise, she would have been suppressed long ago!

“Useless! Can’t even handle a girl!”

Aren’t you also unable to handle her? What right do you have to scold him? Chu Qingzhi and Tang Jinghong exchanged a glance, then one entered through the window, the other through the door, into the room.

There were five people inside.

One was that person from the darkness, his subordinate, another the master, and his two subordinates.

Chu Qingzhi and Tang Jinghong disguised themselves as an unremarkable senior brother and junior brother.

One dressed in black, the other in white; their appearances as distinct as their characters.

Chu Qingzhi changed her plan on the fly, intending to use these small fries to catch a bigger fish. Thus, she approached them under the guise of collaboration.

Another factor was the enemy’s extensive intelligence network, aware of her extraordinary methods that could compel the truth from anyone. Therefore, during their encounter, all identities were concealed; the subordinates had no idea who was above them, making inquiries futile.

Upon seeing the intruders, the five immediately drew their weapons, ready to eliminate the threat.

Chu Qingzhi quickly said, “Don’t attack, we’re not here to fight, but to collaborate!”

Mou Yongfeng watched Chu Qingzhi warily, “If it’s collaboration, why break in through windows and doors?”

Chu Qingzhi pointed outside, “We’re being pursued by Tang Jinghong’s men, we had no choice.”

As she finished speaking, Meng Shengdong’s voice could be heard, “Search thoroughly, alive or dead, we must find them. Anyone daring to assassinate the general doesn’t wish to live!”

“Yes!” Soldiers responded and dispersed to search the surroundings.

This made the leader, Mou Yongfeng, scrutinize Chu Qingzhi more closely,

“You attempted to assassinate Tang Jinghong?”

Chu Qingzhi confirmed, “Yes, our only mission is to kill Tang Jinghong.”

Mou Yongfeng pondered, “Why do you want to kill him?”

Chu Qingzhi countered, “How about you tell me your master’s plan first, then 1’11 tell you?”

Mou Yongfeng awkwardly averted his gaze, “Then you say you’re here to collaborate with us, wanting to join forces to kill Tang Jinghong?”

Chu Qingzhi began subtly probing, “Isn’t that your mission?”

Mou Yongfeng blurted out, “Who told you that was our mission?”

Tang Jinghong, playing the role of the stoic black-clothed senior brother, had been silent, nearly blending into the shadows. He suddenly spoke, “So, you targeted Tang Jinghong, planning to tarnish his reputation through the grain seeds affair?”

Mou Yongfeng turned to him, “Not just that…” He stopped abruptly, indicating there were other objectives.

Chu Qingzhi observed Mou Yongfeng’s expression, “If you can’t decide, how about taking us to your master?”

“What do you mean I can’t decide? I can make decisions.” After a moment of silence, Mou Yongfeng asked, “Which faction do you belong to? Do you have any proof?”

Chu Qingzhi declared, “We’re remnants of Prince Zhang’s forces. A few months ago, Tang Jinghong and Chu Qingzhi forced Prince Zhang to his death. He was a great benefactor to us; we must avenge him!”

She produced a jade token, a symbol of Prince Zhang’s hidden forces, “Prince Zhang gave this to me.”

Seeing the jade token, Mou Yongfeng believed them a bit more, “How many are you?”

Chu Qingzhi regained control of the conversation, “In the spirit of fair collaboration, it’s your turn to share, isn’t it?”

Mou Yongfeng thought for a moment, then revealed, “We’re from Liang City. Our original plan was to leverage the grain seeds incident, but now everything’s been foiled by Chu Qingzhi, forcing us to pause our plans.” Failing the mission meant blame from the lord; if they could kill lang Jinghong, they could redeem themselves!

Tang Jinghong thought to himself, Liang City is a city under the eastern border’s control; these people are linked to the eastern border!

Chu Qingzhi mused, their inaction these past days indicated they knew she was aware of the grain seeds’ secret, “What’s your next move?”

A murderous glint appeared in Mou Yongfeng’s eyes, “Join forces with you to kill Tang Jinghong!”

“This must be a decision you made on the fly; your master doesn’t know, does he?” She needed to identify his superior, then trace up the chain to find the ultimate mastermind. These underlings were inconsequential, not worth mentioning..
