The empress is wild and cool, and I'll help her secure her throne

at the same time.

Kyoto Corpse Sewing Street.

Craftsmen from the Ministry of Works were repairing the large pit that Ye Qianxuan had dug with the purple talisman yesterday. General Hongxiu Xia Ruoxi was leading the troops to guard the area.

From time to time, she looked at Room No. 5 with resentment!

My face still feels hot from being slapped by Ye Qianxuan yesterday!

I was so angry that I couldn't stop talking.

The soldiers were also bored. Seeing Xia Ruoxi staring at Room 5 with fire in her eyes, they whispered to each other:

"Ah! You said we belong to a combat unit, yet you're just watching the streets! This is so shameful!"

"We can't help it! This was originally the job of the Nine Gates Governor's Mansion, but unexpectedly, a murder happened in the Champion Building, so we have no choice but to come here!"

"Haha! What does this have to do with it? Can't we just go investigate the murder case? To put it bluntly, the Empress trusts the Nine Gates Admiral more than General Xia because of that craftsman Ye!"

"That's right! That corpse tailor named Ye is truly amazing. He invented a ton of things and is highly appreciated by the Empress! The Nine Gates Admiral has a good relationship with him, so naturally, he's also loved by everyone in his family!"

"Yes! I heard that our General Xia and the corpse-stitching craftsman from Room 5 are having some trouble!"

"Oh my! That's terrible! This corpse-stitching craftsman has become very rich now! His legend is spread all over the Eastern Zhou Dynasty!"

"Yes, yes! The honeycomb briquettes he invented keep my wife and children warm in the winter! My wife always tells me it would be great if we could stock up on some at a cheaper price!"

"Tsk tsk! There are also sweet potatoes. I really want to try what they taste like! But they are really too expensive! This craftsman Ye might still have some in stock. If he can sell us a few at a low price, that would be great!"

"Ah! My wife keeps nagging me to buy those cheongsam stockings! But a set costs one hundred taels, how can I afford it? I wonder if Carpenter Ye can give me a set..."

"What are you thinking about! Keep your voices down! General Xia and that corpse tailor named Ye are incompatible. Be careful of what General Xia will do to you!"

After these Red Sleeves Army soldiers returned to the capital, what their parents and wives talked about most at home was how much changes Ye Qianxuan's inventions had brought to the capital of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty!

Therefore, they naturally longed to get more of these things cheaply from Ye Qianxuan!

After hearing this, Xia Ruoxi's beautiful eyes seemed to spit fire!

She was a dignified fifth-rank Red Sleeve General, yet she was outdone by a mere corpse-sewist?!

"Is this all Ye Qianxuan's work?"

An idea flashed through Xia Ruoxi's mind, but she quickly rejected it!

She admitted that Ye Qianxuan was a little smart, but only a little.

She knew Ye Qianxuan too well; he was just an honest and dull corpse seamstress!

When I was with her at the beginning, I couldn't do anything except wash her clothes, cook for her, and smile at me foolishly.

How could such a person invent so many things in such a short period of time, and even change the lifestyle and fashion trends of the capital of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty?!

She refused to believe it!

Who knows, maybe he got it through some despicable means!

"You want to ask him for those things, right?" Xia Ruoxi sneered and looked at everyone, anger boiling in her heart: "Then I'll help you get them!"

That’s how it used to be.

No matter how big the conflict between Ye Qianxuan and her was, as long as Xia Ruoxi got angry and pouted, Ye Qianxuan would happily try to please Xia Ruoxi in various ways!

This time, there will be no exception!

Then, Xia Ruoxi strode over and slammed the door of Room 5:

"Ye Qianxuan, come out!"

Chu Yao heard the sound and limped to open the door from the inside.

After seeing Xia Ruoxi and the soldiers behind her, he was stunned for a moment and said softly, "General, my master is not at home."

Xia Ruoxi was also stunned when she saw Chu Yao!

This Ye Qianxuan, a corpse seamstress, actually has a maid?!

Moreover, aren’t the cheongsam and silk stockings worn by this maid the most popular female service in the capital nowadays?

I just heard them say that one set is worth a hundred taels!

Especially the bra under the buttons, it is the same style as her General Hongxiu's!

Isn't this something the Empress specifically promoted to make combat easier for female generals in the army?

How come this maid is here!

Looking at the wall of honeycomb coal and the mountain of sweet potatoes behind Chu Yao, Xia Ruoxi was so angry!

good good!

You are just a little corpse tailor, but you live a more comfortable life than me, General Hongxiu, right?

Ye Qianxuan!

You are really capable!

"Where did he go!" Xia Ruoxi asked with narrowed eyes and a bit of arrogance.

"I don't know." Chu Yao shook her head. "The master is always busy. If the general wants to see the master, just make an appointment with me."

reserve?!

I'm the dignified General Hongxiu, and I need to make an appointment to see a corpse tailor like you?!

"Tell him! Tell him to find me at General Hongxiu's mansion!"

In the past, whenever I wanted to see Ye Qianxuan, Ye Qianxuan would come to see me.

Now that I have given him such a great opportunity, he will definitely come to me out of gratitude!

"Uh... the master never takes the initiative to meet guests. How about the general arrange a time with Chu Yao so that I can inform the master when I return?"

Chu Yao said kindly.

This really pissed off Xia Ruoxi!

A lowly corpse-sewer who never takes the initiative to see customers?!

What are you doing?

Is this little maid mocking me on purpose?

He is a lowly person and has no right to mock me!

You are a lowly maid, you are not qualified!

She raised her hand, slapped Chu Yao in the face, and cursed:

"Who do you think you are?"

"Do I need to make an appointment with you?"

Before Chu Yao could say anything, Xia Ruoxi kicked her in the stomach!

"I, General Hongxiu, am honored to meet a lowly corpse-sewist like him!"

"You want me to schedule an appointment with a lowly person like him? How can such a thing be justified in this world?"

"You, a little maidservant, dare to tell this general what to do? You're asking for a beating!"

Chu Yao fell to the ground and couldn't even get up. She gasped in pain!

"If he doesn't come to see me at General Hongxiu's mansion before tomorrow night, I'll come and kill you, you little bitch!"

"Come here! Move all the honeycomb coal and sweet potatoes out of this room! We'll reward the troops tonight!"

"Also, take off her clothes!"

"What kind of class are you? You are not worthy of wearing the same bra as this general!"

Xia Ruoxi spat, then waved towards the door, and a group of people rushed in!

Two female soldiers came over with greedy eyes, stripped Chu Yao's clothes, and then threw her into the corner of the wall like throwing away garbage!

The other male soldiers desperately carried honeycomb coal and sweet potatoes and looted Room No. 5!

Chu Yao wanted to stop him, but she felt pain in her stomach and couldn't move at all.

In the end, Xia Ruoxi led her troops away.

Chu Yao suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood and completely fainted on the spot...
