Harem Daily Life

On Qi Yizheng's side, after the twenty-five people who came to support arrived, he personally led five people into the village in the dead of night. He first killed all the people on guard, and then divided his troops into several groups and placed knockout drugs in every room.

Some rooms were occupied, while others played cards all night long and became more awake as the night went on. Some even abducted young ladies and took them up the mountain. At night, bursts of laughter and crying could be heard from the rooms.

Qi Yizheng and his men first killed one group, then knocked down another group, and then quietly placed sentries. When the dozens of people waiting outside got the news, they quickly rushed into the village and started hacking and killing.

On Black Wind Mountain, torches were burning brightly, lighting up the night sky in the darkness.

Under the night sky, the guards fought bravely against the bandits, and the sounds of killing shook the sky.

The fighting did not subside until daybreak. The Black Wind Village was wiped out, with countless casualties.

Qi Yizheng ordered the bodies to be buried on the spot and searched the entire village. All the women and children who were abducted to the mountains were rescued. Looking at the bodies of the bandits, some people cursed, some cried, some were numb, and some lost the courage to live.

In addition to finding the captured people, the guards also discovered two cellars. One was filled with bones and emitted a faint stench, while the other was filled with dozens of boxes of gold and silver, shining brightly.

Qi Yizheng ordered his men to temporarily seal the cellar full of bones, waiting for the government to take over. He also ordered the guards to carry out all the silver and money, and gave some to the captured victims so that they could live with the money, and took the rest away and confiscated it.

This bandit suppression campaign can be said to be a complete victory. When Qi Yizheng returned to the inn, Tao Yanyan finally put his mind at ease after worrying all night.

"General Qi, you have worked hard. We have prepared hot water upstairs. General Qi, please go take a shower and change clothes first. I will have someone send the food to your room. The injured guards are being treated by Imperial Doctor Liu. They are just superficial injuries, so don't worry."

Qi Yizheng clasped his fists and said, "Yes, I will go and rest first. As for the bandit leader, I will come and discuss it with you after I have rested."

In fact, Qi Yizheng could have executed the people on the spot, but these people were captured by Tao Cairen himself, so he had to ask the girl what she thought.

In the evening, Qi Yizheng had a good sleep, and then he came to report to Tao Cairen, and by the way, reported to Tao Cairen the evidence he found on Black Wind Mountain. Although he had picked the least bloody part and even glossed over some parts, Tao Yanyan was still frightened and his face turned pale.

Thinking that he might have scared Tao Cairen, Qi Yizheng stopped talking after a short while and waited for Tao Cairen to digest it slowly.

"General, what do you think should be done with that bald guy?" Tao Yanyan asked.

"He has been entrenched in Black Wind Village for several years and has committed many evil deeds. His death does not deserve a pity." Qi Yizheng is decisive in killing, so naturally he wants to kill the bandit leader.

Tao Yanyan nodded: "Yes, he deserves to die, but since he likes to flirt with women so much and has harmed so many women, he can't die too easily. How about this, monks have pure six senses, you chop off his roots first, and then kill him."

Qi Yizheng suddenly felt a chill down there, and the cute little talent in front of him didn't seem cute at all.

Wow, how can someone look like an innocent and cute girl but say such cold words?

Qi Yizheng did not stay any longer and went to work with Tao Cairen's orders.

Even though he was a tough general who had fought on the battlefield with He Linzhang to quell the rebellion of the vassal kings, he couldn't help but shiver while working.

Tao Yanyan didn't care that her soft and cute image was shattered in front of Qi Yizheng, nor did she care whether Qi Yizheng would think she was a cruel and ruthless woman. Anyway, she felt that it was time to carry out this torture on the bald boss. Who made him do evil and harm other people's innocence and lives based on his own selfish desires?

I don’t know how many innocent lives he has killed. He deserves this punishment.

In order not to dirty the inn, Qi Yizheng took several people to the wilderness and executed them secretly.

Several younger brothers watched their boss first suffer the torture of having his roots removed and then being stabbed to death. They all trembled in fear and could not even stand steadily. Dirty things flowed out from between the trouser legs of two of them, and Qi Yizheng looked down on them severely.

As for Shunzi, who informed the hotel, Qi Yizheng found out that he was not innocent either. At least because of his tip-off, seven families staying in the hotel were killed. Among them, two three-year-old twins in one family were not spared. So he was also secretly executed by Qi Yizheng.

Shunzi probably never figured it out until his death. He just leaked the information but didn't do anything. So why did he die?

What he didn't understand was that because of his aid and abetment, some people died tragically at the hands of bandits, and he was also one of the sources of evil.

When everything was settled, Qi Yizheng came back to report, and Tao Yanyan asked, "What are you going to do with the silver you seized this time?"

Qi Yizheng fell backwards and said, "Talented people, according to the law, must be confiscated and put into the national treasury."

Tao Yanyan pointed at his finger and said: "The guards fought bravely to suppress the bandits, but they got no reward?" He looked at Qi Yizheng eagerly, waiting for his answer.

Qi Yizheng felt uneasy and asked, "Talented Man, do you mean to take out a portion and share it with everyone?"

I thought to myself: These are the treasures that should belong to your man now, do you really want to share them with others?

Tao Yanyan blinked his eyes and said, "How can it be called a share? It should be called a reward based on merit. You are all so brave and have eradicated such a big cancer entrenched in the area. You have made outstanding contributions to the people's peace and happiness. You have disregarded your own safety and defeated the enemy with a small number. It is really admirable! Even if it comes to His Majesty, His Majesty will reward you."

Qi Yizheng asked tentatively, "Then, report this to His Majesty and let His Majesty reward you?"

Tao Yanyan choked: "How could he care about such a trivial matter? No need to bother him. You and I have set a standard, and then just give the reward."

Seeing that Qi Yizheng seemed hesitant, Tao Yanyan said, "You are a second-rank general after all. You led your brothers through life and death to do a great thing. You should have the right to receive such a small reward." After saying that, he looked at Qi Yizheng and said, "Is it that the law does not allow it, or that you don't dare?"

Qi Yizheng thought about it and realized that the law did stipulate that if a general seized spoils of war, he could dispose of them at will and reward them according to their merits.

As for whether he dared to do it? He would give each person fifty taels of silver, and sixty people would only have three thousand taels. Even if His Majesty did not agree in the end, he could make up the difference from his own private treasury.

Anyway, the Qi family has plenty of money.

Thinking of this, Qi Yizheng stopped worrying and said readily, "Okay, then we'll reward them according to their merits, fifty taels each."

Tao Yanyan smiled with curved eyebrows and eyes: "I heard that after counting, there are more than 30,000 taels. Let's give each person 100 taels to make it an even number. Next time when you want to make them fight to death, you will have something to go for."

Qi Yizheng: “…”

Are you really not remembering that all this money now belongs to your man?

I only took three thousand taels, one tenth, and you wanted to take six thousand taels, one fifth.

But what Tao Yanyan said next was what made Qi Yizheng vomit blood: "I have already calculated the number of people, sixty guards, plus six people who came to deliver supplies, two of my maids, one imperial physician, and the injured Xianglan, you and me, a total of seventy-two people, one hundred taels each, a total of seven thousand two hundred taels. Oh, by the way, if possible, I want to exchange mine for gold, I prefer shiny things."

"Seven, seven thousand two hundred taels?" Qi Yizheng frowned, wanting to ask: Why do you and I have to share the silver? Shouldn't we be upright and not refuse it?

"Let's do it this way. Thank you for your hard work, General Qi. I will ask Qingfeng to contact you, and let Qingfeng bring all of us back. Thank you, General!"

After Tao Yanyan finished speaking, he didn't give Qi Yizheng a chance to speak again and stood up and went back to his room.

Qi Yizheng...

Why does it feel like Tao Cairen is robbing his own family's money?
