After traveling through time, I rely on force to survive

After hearing Xie Xuanan's explanation, Li Qingqing chuckled and praised Mu Yunjing: "You have to deal with that naughty boy!"

It would take several years for a little girl who can't read a single word to learn, understand and master those seven or eight books, right?

However, Xier is the daughter of the Minister of Revenue after all, and she can't always be ignorant. Mu Yunjing is helping her.

Mu Yunjing's expression remained calm, and he didn't feel that he had done anything wrong. He said slowly:

"Before the Minister of Revenue left, he asked me to convey to you and Yi Mo that he would send a thank you gift later to thank you for rescuing his beloved daughter."

"That's right, you can get money by saving lives. I guess this is a way to make money!" Li Qingqing then raised the corners of her mouth slightly.

Who doesn't like money? The more the better!

She suddenly thought, could she consider adding a rescue service to her Qingfeng Pavilion?

After all, if a killer takes the mission, there must be someone who needs rescue and protection.

Li Qingqing's bright eyes met Xie Xuan'an's, and she couldn't help but laugh: "But, some people have been rescued, why are they so unaware?"

After spending a long time with Xie Xuan'an, she knew that when this cunning fox Xie took off his disguise, he was actually just a pure and innocent young man of seventeen.

"You!" Xie Xuanan met her malicious gaze, knowing that she was talking about him, glared at her and argued:

"I've given you one-third of all the property, and you're still not satisfied!"

"That's what I deserve! Look at how much I've done for you and the county government."

Li Qingqing glanced at him sideways and added jokingly, "Besides, it's also true that I saved you!"

Seeing Xie Xuan'an's face gradually turning red, Li Qingqing couldn't help but feel like teasing him.

Xie Xuanan felt that the most embarrassing thing in his life was Li Qingqing's rescue. It was really a case of bringing up something irrelevant, and Mu Yunjing was sitting next to him!

He was speechless for a moment and blurted out:

"Brother Zhou was also saved by you, why didn't he give you money?"

"He has pledged his love to me, and all his future wealth will belong to me. Do you want to pledge your love to me as well?"

"You woman! You come to bully me again!" Xie Xuan'an's face turned red in an instant, and he seemed a little ashamed and angry.

"Woman? Shouldn't you call her 'sister'?"

"You, you, you are only three days older than me!"

"Look, you've already admitted that I'm older than you. Come on, call me 'sister' for me to hear?"

"Li Qingqing!"

Xie Xuanan didn't care about maintaining his inherent elegance and shouted in frustration, but he found Zhou Yimo walking into the room. He immediately turned to Zhou Yimo:

"Brother Zhou, come and take care of your woman! She's bullying me again!"

There was a hint of grievance in Xie Xuan'an's tone, and he looked at Zhou Yimo with resentment.

Zhou Yimo looked at Li Qingqing lovingly, nodded to Mu Yunjing, and then said to Xie Xuanan with a smile:

"My wife is quite bellicose. If she had a brother, she would have often practiced martial arts with him. Fortunately, you are younger than her. You should be thankful."

Xie Xuanan: ...

He didn't want to talk anymore.

These two people actually teamed up to bully him!

The atmosphere in the room was harmonious, and something called friendship between them grew deeper through these jokes.

"Madam, what's the matter that has you come here so anxiously?"

Seeing that he had appeased Xie Xuan'an, Zhou Yimo smiled and asked Li Qingqing, adding, "It just so happens that I have something good to tell you."

Li Qingqing nodded, "You speak first."

Finish talking about the happy things first, so that you won’t be worried when you hear news about her later.

"Okay!" Zhou Yimo was not polite. Seeing that Xie Xuan'an and Mu Yunjing were also present, he immediately told the story of how Li Qingqing accidentally saved other children while rescuing Hu Dabao's son, and then said:

"Those abducted children were brought from all over the place by Wang Da-Merchant under the orders of Mr. Liu. They were then handed over to Milin Village by Mr. Liu and sold to other countries.

When I was deporting those children just now, I found that nearly thirty of them were homeless beggars living on the streets. According to convention, the county government would deport these beggars to shelters in various places.

Madam, since you asked Bai Ye to train your men, perhaps we could consider taking these children in?"

If they are not taken in, these children will become beggars or be abducted after being sent back to various places, and continue to live a precarious life of displacement.

"Okay! I want all these people."

Li Qingqing was delighted when she heard this. These children have been receiving training since they were young and will become people who are completely loyal to her.

Li Qingqing then told Zhou Yimo about the Qingfeng Pavilion and said:

"You must find a way to completely erase their past. Let Bai Ye settle them down first, and take all these children into Qingfeng Pavilion."

She then turned to Mu Yunjing and said seriously, "Your Highness, Prince Qing, I will personally select and train the best talents to join your shadow guards."

Mu Yunjing heard her words and saw her solemn expression, so he also responded solemnly: "Thank you, Pavilion Master."

"Oh! This title is quite suitable for me." Li Qingqing was a little surprised when she heard it, and suddenly laughed.

Qingfeng Pavilion belongs to her, so isn’t she the Pavilion Master?

Then, she looked at Xie Xuanan with a hint of joking in her tone:

"Xiao Xie, please arrange for someone to specially make two identical silver masks and a pair of Pavilion Master tokens for General Li and me."

"Xiao Xie?" Xie Xuan'an opened his eyes wide, "Are you calling me?"

"Yeah, should I call you 'Xiao Xiezi'?"

No, no, no, it’s Xiao Xie.

Xie Xuan'an: A fox can't defeat a vixen!

Xie Xuanan accepted his fate and responded:

"I understand. I will make arrangements immediately. From now on, the world will only remember the mysterious figure of the Qingfeng Pavilion Master, whose gender is difficult to identify."

Seeing that everything that needed to be said had been said, Li Qingqing said seriously, "Now there is something important that I want to tell you."

She took out the confession written by Master Qiu and said,

"According to the second-in-command, in order to avenge Mr. Liu, the first-in-command Luo has begun to gather bandit forces from several nearby hilltops. They are conspiring to gather and prepare to forcibly occupy Qiushui Town and turn it into a bandit town!"

"How dare he! This is simply blatant treason!" Mu Yunjing said angrily, "When will they take action?"

"According to the second-in-command, they will take action at the end of this month."

"At the end of this month??!"

"So that's three days from now?"

Mu Yunjing, Xie Xuan'an and Zhou Yimo were suddenly shocked.

"How many people are still in the county government office?" Mu Yunjing asked after calming down.

Xie Xuanan said, "Brother Yunjing, today you will send a thousand elite soldiers from Yuntai County to escort the Minister of Revenue back to the capital. Now we only have about four hundred officials from the county government available."

"Those 400-plus people were officials who were doing temporary work while on a temporary basis. Even the weapons they were given were in bad shape."

Zhou Yimo said, "Fortunately, we paid all the monthly salaries owed to them yesterday, which eased their emotions. If we want to deal with the bandits, these four hundred people should be united."

Li Qingqing added, "Mr. Liu manufactured a large number of weapons in the past because he traded with the Luo boss. I'm sure those bandits have a lot of weapons in their hands."

In other words, Qiu Shui Town is now in danger.
