My reborn husband and son are thinking about how to kill me every day.

Ji Yunshuang's makeup when she walked around Ningcheng was designed to make her look several years older, and her face appeared several shades darker than it actually was.

In order not to appear too beautiful and to make people remember her at first glance, she deliberately dressed herself up in an ordinary way.

Unfortunately, her face was simply too beautiful. Even so, it still made the leading officer's heart itch.

He shouted loudly, telling Ji Yunshuang to stand still.

He held up a black cloth and gestured towards Ji Yunshuang's face.

His hands, however, were restless, trying to touch Ji Yunshuang's chest.

Ji Yunshuang stood still, but secretly used her telekinetic power to move a large spider from space onto the man.

Because he wanted to take advantage of Ji Yunshuang, he almost clung to her.

This made things convenient for Ji Yunshuang, who quietly placed the spider on the man's body.

This spider is a pet spider sold in the mall. It is non-venomous, but its size is quite frightening.

She feigned fear and said in a trembling voice, "M-Master...you..."

The officer, seeing her appearance, did not notice anything amiss. Instead, he became even more excited, feeling that Ji Yunshuang had ignited a fire in his heart, a fire that made him want to immediately pin her down and vent his desires.

He joked, "What's wrong with me?"

By this time, the spider had already climbed onto the officer's shoulder.

Ji Yunshuang took a step back, pointing at his shoulder in horror, and said, "You...you have a big...big spider on your shoulder."

At this moment, the accompanying officers also noticed the large spider on her shoulder and immediately screamed.

The spider was simply too big, and its colors were so vibrant that it looked venomous.

Reminded by Ji Yunshuang and her companions, the leading officer also noticed the enormous spider on his shoulder.

He panicked and tensed up, saying, "Hurry up... hurry up and help kill this spider."

His companion hurriedly grabbed a knife and slapped the spider on his shoulder, but whether it was due to being too nervous or something else, he missed and instead startled the spider, which then crawled all the way from the officer's shoulder to his head.

The sight of the spider's many legs touching the skin intensified the officers' fear.

He frantically tried to grab the spider on his head, and after a flurry of activity, he finally managed to kill it.

The officer leading the search was still shaken and no longer cared about taking advantage of Ji Yunshuang. He called over the innkeeper and berated him, "How come there are spiders in the shop? What kind of business are you running?"

The shopkeeper bowed deeply and apologized repeatedly. After pleading for forgiveness for a while and stuffing a large bag of silver into the official's purse, the official finally gave up.

Ji Yunshuang watched the official's arrogant departure and felt utterly disgusted.

If she had known this day would come, she should have put some poisonous insects like centipedes and scorpions into her space earlier to poison this bastard to death.

"Young lady, you're very lucky."

The waiter looked around and, seeing that no one was paying attention to them, whispered, "It's a good thing there was that spider, otherwise you'd be in big trouble today, young lady."

Ji Yunshuang looked puzzled.

The waiter whispered, "If that spider hadn't suddenly spoiled his mood, you might have taken him away. Even if you weren't the assassin in the painting, you wouldn't have been able to get any justice then."

Ji Yunshuang asked, "Has something like this happened before?"

The waiter nodded, but didn't dare say too much, only reminding her, "In short, young lady, you should be more careful in the future, and be more cautious in everything you do."

"Thank you, bro."

After thanking him, Ji Yunshuang gave the waiter a dime as a reward, saying that she wanted to check out and asked him to help her bring the horse out of the stable.

After accepting Ji Yunshuang's money, the shopkeeper secretly told Ji Yunshuang what he knew before.

It turned out that the official leading the search was named Han Dian, the only son of the second branch of the Han family. Relying on the fact that Princess Duan was a member of the Han family, he had done many things to bully men and women.

He had previously found a pretext to arrest a respectable woman and force her to become his mistress.

The respectable woman refused, so he fabricated a crime against her parents, and the whole family was eventually driven to their deaths.

Ji Yunshuang gritted her teeth. It seemed that she had only released a spider to scare him, which was too lenient. A scumbag like him should not be alive.

He was even wearing official robes, swaggering around the streets.

She said angrily, "Isn't anyone going to do anything about it?"

The waiter shook his head. "Who dares to interfere? He's a member of the Han family."

Ji Yunshuang thought to herself, if others dare not interfere, then she will! She drove the carriage out of the inn and went to Yunchou Residence.

This is a silk shop run by the Xu family.

However, she has now bought the silk shop.

Yunchouju has a large storefront, with a courtyard behind it.

A courtyard house is essentially a large courtyard containing two interconnected courtyards of different sizes. However, the two courtyards are accessed through separate entrances and do not interfere with each other.

Of the two courtyards, one was inhabited by the embroiderers and servants of Yunchouju, while the other was empty.

Ji Yunshuang entered through the back door and temporarily stayed in the courtyard, waiting until dark before taking any action.

In the Qi army camp, after hearing his subordinates' report, General Yao angrily cursed, "Incompetent fools! Good-for-nothings! How can you not even handle such a small matter?"

The centurion who came to report said with a disheveled face, "General, those Zhou soldiers are really too powerful... We have never encountered such powerful soldiers before when we were at the border."

The soldier we encountered was like a devil. No, he was more terrifying than a devil when he killed…

Thinking of the Zhou soldiers they encountered when they disguised themselves as bandits and robbed the people of Zhou, Qi Diaoming couldn't help but shudder.

Now, whenever he closes his eyes, he sees his compatriots being stabbed in the throat with a single sword, then stripped naked, piled up, and burned with firewood.

And when he faced that fiend surnamed Lu, his eyes were as cold as ice, full of ferocity; he was like a demon crawling out of hell...

General Yao was even more furious when he saw his cowardly appearance, as if he had seen a ghost.

"He's just a brute with a little skill, is he really worth scaring like this? A brute with only brute force can't win a battle. Don't boost others' morale and diminish your own."

Qi Diaoming thought to himself, "That's not just a bunch of brutes. If they were just brutes who knew a little kung fu, their every move would be precisely monitored by the other side."

However, seeing the general's face, which was as black as the bottom of a pot, he didn't dare to say those words.

General Yao, unaware of his thoughts, summoned his strategist to discuss the matter.

This operation not only failed to secure grain for the Qi army and make up for the losses from the burned granaries, but also resulted in the loss of a large number of men and soldiers, something that the strategists had not anticipated.

Everyone frowned, looking gloomy.

General Yao, seated at the head of the table, said, "I'm sure you gentlemen have all heard about the current situation. Do you have any good plans?"
