"Han'er, why is your face as red as an apple?"
After watching Xie Lin'an leave, Lu Han just turned around and walked into the door, when he saw his second brother Lu Bing leaning against the pillar and winking at him.
"Second brother, are you free?"
"I'm not idle. I didn't want to go out, but I saw you rushing onto someone's carriage like a gust of wind. I was afraid that someone would see you, so I kept watching."
"Leave me alone."
Lu Han raised his chin towards Lu Bing and snorted coldly: "Get out of here, I want to go back and catch up on some sleep, I'm so sleepy."
"Lu Han."
Lu Bing stopped joking and stopped his sister who was about to leave: "What you said last night really shocked me, but things in this world will not develop as you expect, so you have to be mentally prepared."
"I know. I'm not a three-year-old child. I'm not that naive." Lu Han smiled at his second brother, "You should leave now."
"Ah."
Watching his second brother leave, Lu Han's eyes gradually darkened.
If enemies come, we will fight them; if floods come, we will block them with earth; she believes that man can conquer nature.
"Young Madam, Young Madam."
On this day, Song Rui, whose injuries had almost recovered, walked in excitedly.
"You've been frowning every day since you moved in. It's rare to see you so happy. Is there something good?" Yuan Buwei was practicing calligraphy. This was her habit. Whenever she was upset, she would practice calligraphy for a while to calm her mind.
"I've been in touch with a few colleagues."
As Song Rui spoke, he took out a list and handed it to Yuan Buwei: "Fortunately, the commander and deputy commander had instructions that if he met with an accident, the members of the Black Group should be disbanded in time, and they should be allowed to remain anonymous and wait for the next call. There are 20 people in each of the Red and Black Groups, and there are only eight people left in the Black Group. The others died in battle."
"Are you sure that there is no betrayer among the Black Group members?"
"Madam, I swear on my life that the members of the Black Team were all personally selected by the commander back then, so we not only obey his orders, but also have deep feelings for him. If we are asked to betray them, we would rather die than betray him. As for the members of the Red Team..." Song Rui's eyes were red. "As far as I know, the commander of the Red Team had no choice. The lives of his family members were in the hands of the emperor, so he could only choose to betray. But when all the members of the Red Team were replaced, he could not escape the fate of being silenced."
"Then, were those men in black that we met that day members of the Red Team?"
"After Princess Jinghe explained the death squad, the commander arranged the stay or departure of the two groups of members. Judging from the current situation, all the members of the Red Group will be assigned to the Langya Guard?" Yuan Buwei analyzed.
"I thought so at first, but Luan Fengyu is a very petty person. The Langya Army is loyal to him. To a large extent, he has a life-and-death relationship with those people, so..." Song Rui raised his head and said, "I believe that the people in the Red Group have been secretly dealt with by him. Not a single one has been spared."
"If that's the case, then he is helping us solve a problem?"
Song Rui didn't expect the young lady to think this way, but after thinking about it, he felt that she was right: "You can say that, but when I think about it, they were also my colleagues in the past. They just followed the wrong master and died too unjustly."
"I don't believe that when the incident happened, no one from the Red Team discovered it. If one of them had reported the problem to the Black Team leader in time, the situation would not be like this now. So their deaths are inevitable. Song Rui, you don't need to blame yourself." Yuan Buwei put the list on the table. "How soon can I see these eight people?"
"Three days."
Song Rui said without even thinking.
"Very good, with you nine included, it's easy to arrange. On the surface, you are the guards of Wan Ninghou, but secretly you are still death warriors. As for the name... you can't use the old one." Yuan Buwei tapped the table with her fingers, thinking about the name, "Since you are death warriors and can't be seen in the light, then let's call you Netherworld Guards? What do you think of this name?"
"Netherworld Guard?" Song Rui murmured, "This name sounds mysterious. This is the name for the young lady. I believe everyone will like it."
"That's good, right."
As Yuan Buwei was talking, she remembered the things she had prepared before and immediately took them out from the cabinet. "I didn't know how many people you could contact, so I prepared ten bundles, which contain commonly used medicines, two sets of inner and outer clothes, and most importantly, I put a hundred taels in each bundle. Remember to give the bundles to them, whether they use them themselves or leave them to their families. After you enter the mansion, your monthly salary will be calculated according to the first-class guards in the mansion. As for when you go out on a mission and complete it, you will be paid extra. However, I have never done this kind of job before. If you think there is anything unreasonable, please bring it up in time."
"Madam, this is too much. Most of us are orphans without parents. If we die on a mission one day, no matter how much money we earn, we won't be able to spend it."
"I would like to ask, when you were working for Princess Jinghe, how much did she pay you per month?"
"In fact, the monthly salary is not much, but the princess likes to reward us with all kinds of things, so we have no shortage of food, clothing, housing and transportation. Moreover, we are doing the work of dead soldiers. We either stay in the dark or lurk for a long time. To tell the truth, it doesn't cost much money."
"I see. Then we can divide the Netherworld Guards in the future. Some can protect people, and some can explore intelligence. Just like medicinal herbs, this type has this effect, and that type has that effect. Since we want to do it, let's do something big." Yuan Buwei raised an eyebrow at Song Rui, "You have a wife and children to support now. You need to change your mindset. You can't be like before, caring about nothing."
"Madam, I can do that, but my colleagues..."
"It's okay. When they come here, if they want to get married or have a lover, I will take care of it."
"Madam, that won't work. We are all warriors, and we might die one day. If we have family, we will be worried..."
"You also said that you are all orphans without parents, so you naturally long for the warmth of a family. I don't think having a family is a burden. On the contrary, you will be more cautious when doing things because you know that you have a family waiting for you to return." Yuan Buwei smiled slightly, "So I have never thought that having a home and a lover means having a weak spot. I think love is armor, an armor that can make me invincible and not afraid of any difficulties!"
"well said!"
The two turned their heads and saw Lu Sui being pushed into the door by Li Yan.
