Qin Shi Huang: Swordsmanship begins with picking up Xiao Meng

Chapter 106 Yan Lingji's "Bad Master" Returns to the Seven Absolutes Hall

"What are you doing?"

Amidst curious exclamations, Jiang Yu walked over, rubbing her side with one hand. It was his own fault for provoking Dong Jun.

Upon hearing the familiar voice, Shao Siming abruptly stopped her hand seals and immediately looked towards the source of the sound, landing on Jiang Yu.

The leaves that had gathered together, imbued with considerable power, scattered across the ground like celestial maidens scattering flowers after losing the support and control of Shao Siming's internal energy.

Yan Lingji's reaction was simply to innocently shrug her shoulders:
"Little guy, I told you your brother would be alright."

Knowing the two women's personalities, Jiang Yu glared at Yan Lingji. If Yan Lingji hadn't started the trouble, Shao Siming wouldn't have bothered with her.

Yan Lingji pouted her red lips, feeling even more wronged. If she hadn't stopped Shao Siming, it would have been Jiang Yu, the bad master, who would have been embarrassed.

Jiang Yu temporarily bypassed Yan Lingji and came to Shao Siming, reaching out to remove the fallen leaf from her head while praising her:

"That spell was amazing, truly incredible."

To be able to master the Manyo Hikaru Ryu to this extent in such a short time is already an exceptionally amazing talent.

Seeing that Shao Siming's face was pale from overexertion due to forcibly circulating her energy, he then instructed her again:

"This older sister is one of us. Although she's a bit wild, she doesn't have any bad intentions. So just play around with her normally and don't do anything serious, otherwise it won't be good if any of you get hurt."

After looking Jiang Yu up and down, Shao Siming's gaze softened, and she nodded obediently, finally pointing in the direction of the room.

Having spent some time with Shao Siming, Jiang Yu naturally understood what she meant, and reached out to pat her little head.
"Well, let's go back and rest."

Only after receiving permission did Shao Siming leave.

After Shao Siming left, Yan Lingji walked over gracefully, her gaze landing on Jiang Yu's side waist, and said teasingly:
"Master, would you like me to massage it for you?"

"It seems you are ready."

Having already made his intentions clear, Jiang Yu pressed forward without any hesitation, especially since he had just received the imperial sword from Dong Jun.

This also made Jiang Yu understand why Dongjun was suddenly so nice to Yan Lingji; it turned out he wanted to find a comrade-in-arms to share the firepower.

Jiang Yu's sudden action startled Yan Lingji, who reflexively stepped back to create distance.

As for Jiang Yu, he didn't really intend to do anything to Yan Lingji, otherwise the latter wouldn't have had a chance to back away.

Looking at the outwardly strong but inwardly weak Yan Lingji, Jiang Yu said disdainfully:
"That's it!"

"Hmph, you bad master!"

Once she realized what was happening, Yan Lingji snorted coldly, realizing this was no longer fun.

Jiang Yu, who had taught Yan Lingji a lesson, said seriously:

“My sister has a special situation. I’m so grateful that you can play with her and talk to her. Thank you so much.”

It's a great thing that Shao Siming has one more person to talk to.

"Just don't tease her, or you saw what happened just now."

"Ok!"

Yan Lingji nodded solemnly. Over this period of time, she had come to understand Jiang Yu's personality to some extent.

You must listen attentively to anything that is earnestly explained to you.

"Could you tell me more about her situation? That way I can better understand how to get along with her."

"I am not sure as well."

If Jiang Yu knew Shao Siming's specific situation, she would have treated her accordingly long ago, like she did with Xiao Meng, instead of trying her best to gently influence Shao Siming as she is now.

"That's it!"

Yan Lingji's beautiful eyes darted around, as if deep in thought.

"I have something else to do, so I'll leave first."

Jiang Yu glanced at the sky and decided not to delay any longer; it was time to go to Zilan Pavilion.

"Master, don't you need me to come along?" Yan Lingji asked, regaining her senses.

As Jiang Yu left, she turned back and said this:
"If you have time, go to Wangzhuang to forge iron. You don't need to refine it a thousand times; refining it a hundred times will suffice."

In addition to elites like Yan Lingji and Wushuang Gui, a large number of ordinary members are also necessary to build a force.

Otherwise, the tedious tasks such as intelligence gathering and normal business operations would be too much for Yan Lingji and Wushuang Gui to finish.

So in recent days, Jiang Yu has selected some decent people from the Baiyue slaves and started training them. Naturally, he needs to prepare appropriate weapons for them.

Forging iron again!
Yan Lingji behind him looked distressed, regretting that she had asked the unnecessary question.

It was already dusk when Jiang Yu went out.

Walking down the street, Jiang Yu scanned the city, observing the situation.

On the streets, because Tianze was seriously injured by Jiang Yu and needed to recuperate, the tense atmosphere in Xinzheng was greatly reduced, and people who had been cooped up for a long time came out to get some fresh air, making the place much more lively.

Among pedestrians, those with elegant attire and refined demeanor are increasingly following suit by wearing autumn orchids.

As for ordinary people, it remains the same as always. After all, the price of a single orchid is far beyond what ordinary people can afford. How could ordinary people, who are not even sure if they can make ends meet, bear to buy a flower that is only good for looking at?

When Jiang Yu withdrew her gaze, they had already arrived at their destination. Of course, it wasn't Zilan Pavilion, but Qijue Hall, which Jiang Yu had deliberately taken a detour to visit.

"Son!"

Upon receiving the news, Tang Qi immediately came to greet him.

"Continue to help me take in refugees, regardless of their nationality, age, or gender, and then send them all to Princess Honglian's royal estate outside the city. You should know the location, right?"

The enslavement of the Baiyue people has been largely stabilized, and it's time to let the old guard manage the new and take in a new batch of refugees.

"I understand."

With the Seven Absolutes Hall's intelligence capabilities, this is naturally not a problem.

"I will do my best to accomplish it!"

As the lowest-ranking force in Xinzheng, Tang Qi was all too aware of the importance of having a powerful backer. For example, his mortal enemy, the Poison Scorpion Sect, had recently found a powerful backer and had become even more arrogant.

And the leader of the Wei family, whom he had pledged allegiance to, didn't really get involved.

Therefore, being able to establish a good relationship with Jiang Yu in the long term is like a godsend, since even Princess Honglian has to listen to Jiang Yu obediently.

Furthermore, Jiang Yu and Wei Laoda have a very close relationship, so helping Jiang Yu with his affairs wouldn't be considered a betrayal of Wei Laoda.

“After the person is delivered, I will pay you according to the situation. I will not let you and your brothers work for nothing.”

Jiang Yu then added with satisfaction, "Compared to coercion with force and power, it is obviously more effective in motivating people to act."

Furthermore, in Jiang Yu's eyes, the Seven Absolutes Hall would eventually be hers, since the intelligence value of these lower-level personnel was considerable. In the anime, Wei Zhuang obtained crucial intelligence through the Seven Absolutes Hall on several occasions.

"Thank you, sir!"

Sure enough, upon hearing this, Tang Qi's eyes became even more resolute.

After finishing this small matter, Jiang Yu turned and walked towards Zilan Pavilion.

On the way!

Jiang Yu, sensing something, looked up.

"Puff puff……"

At dusk, a crow flew by, followed by a small white bird.

In addition, there was a subtle, lurking danger emanating from the surrounding streets.

Jiang Yu, having turned her gaze away, said gloatingly:

"Brother Han, the night road is going to be difficult to walk again tonight."
