Qin Shi: I only work eight hours

Chapter 215 The Mature Woman Mingzhu is Nervous, the Straw-Cloaked Guest Dies

That night.

The border area between Nanyang and Xinzheng.

The moon is as cold as water.

The man in the straw hat and raincoat brought the boat to shore and carried the wooden bucket toward the bamboo house.

The wooden bucket was full of fish.

He hadn't gone far when Yan Ri blocked his way.

"Can you finish all this fish by yourself?"

"Would you be willing to sell me a few?"

Yan Ri asked with a light laugh.

He was a top-tier assassin from the Luo Wang organization, dressed in black armor and wearing a mask, looking no different from an ordinary Qin soldier.

"If you can't finish it today, you can continue eating it tomorrow."

The man in the straw raincoat replied without hesitation.

Then they opened the wooden door and went into the bamboo house.

Upon hearing this, Yan Ri shook his head with a hint of helplessness.

Then they went into the bamboo house.

"You're not Korean, are you?"

The man in the straw raincoat looked in the direction of the sound and asked indifferently.

He was very disgusted by the uninvited arrival of the sun.

"I am a Qin person."

Yanri nodded.

After he finished speaking, he looked around.

The bamboo house is small, just right for one person.

"Are you here to kill me?"

The man in the straw raincoat put down the wooden bucket and asked calmly.

His intuition told him that the visitor was up to no good!
"uncertain."

"Our Lord appoints only the talented."

Yan Ri replied with a smile.

"But I have no intention of switching sides."

The man in the straw raincoat lowered the brim of his hat.

"Rather die than surrender?"

Yan Ri suppressed her smile.

"I would rather die than surrender."

The man in the straw raincoat nodded.

Then he picked up the fishing rod next to him.

He is not only skilled at gathering intelligence, but also has considerable cultivation.

"Ok."

"I will grant your wish."

Seeing this, Yan Ri sighed helplessly.

Then he slowly drew out the long sword from his waist.

……

After half a cup of tea.

A streak of blood-red sword energy severed the straw-cloaked man's neck.

With two muffled thuds, the man in the straw raincoat's head and body hit the ground one after the other.

He sheathed his sword and wrote a letter to Xu Lin.

Then they set fire to the bamboo house.

……

The next day.

The morning light is dim.

Xu Lin had just woken up when he received Yan Ri's letter.

After reading the letter, he hesitated for a moment, then handed it to the sleepy-eyed Yan Lingji.

The man in the straw raincoat refused to yield even in the face of death, which was within his expectations, so he wasn't particularly surprised.

"It seems this man in the straw raincoat is a fool too."

After reading it, Yan Lingji rubbed her beautiful eyes and commented.

"how you said that?"

Xu Lin poured himself a bowl of cold tea and asked as he drank it.

"He who knows the current affairs is a hero."

"That Ji Wuye isn't a wise ruler, so why would he choose death over submission?"

Yan Lingji said.

After speaking, she raised her fair wrist and stretched comfortably.

Her nightgown was very thin, so when she raised her arms, her two 'wicked' breasts darted out like rabbits, which was quite adorable.

"Is it nice?"

Feeling Xu Lin's gaze, Yan Lingji smiled charmingly.

Then she deliberately bent down, letting Xu Lin see her voluptuous figure.

"Your leg doesn't hurt anymore?"

Upon seeing this, Xu Lin asked with a smile.

"Another point."

Yan Lingji patted her thigh lightly.

After saying that, she snatched the teacup from Xu Lin's hand, raised her delicate neck, and began to chug the tea.

What would you like to eat for breakfast?

After drinking it all in one gulp, Yan Lingji asked while tying her hair.

"Pancakes."

Xu Lin answered while thinking.

It wasn't that there were no iron pots in this era, but rather that iron smelting technology was inadequate, so only a few high-ranking officials and nobles could afford to use iron pots.

"it is good."

Yan Lingji readily agreed.

Then, just like Xu Lin had done to her before bed last night, she gave Xu Lin a hard slap on the bottom, and then quickly walked towards the kitchen. You can slap your sister, and your sister can slap you too!

"So, if we don't beat you for a few hours, you'll be climbing on the roof and tearing off the tiles, huh?"

"Just wait and see how I deal with you tonight!"

Watching Yan Lingji's figure gradually disappear into the distance, Xu Lin smiled and threatened.

"Who'll settle the score is still anyone's guess!"

Yan Lingji said.

Although she often loses, she has won before!
……

Less than half an hour later.

Yan Lingji carried the bamboo basket to the study.

There were several large flatbreads in the bamboo basket, still steaming hot, and they smelled delicious.

"The man in the straw raincoat is dead."

Who are you planning to kill next?

"Bai Yifei?"

Yan Lingji sat diagonally opposite Xu Lin, eating a pancake as she asked a question.

She has a small appetite, so she can't even finish half a pancake.

"Only Bai Yifei and Ji Wuye are left."

"You're right, a wise person knows when to yield."

"Bai Yifei doesn't necessarily have to die."

Xu Lin nodded.

Then fold the pancake in half and begin to enjoy it.

Bai Yifei is Mingzhu's cousin. If Bai Yifei is willing to surrender to the Qin state, he can be spared.

Upon hearing this, Yan Lingji hesitated, as if she wanted to say something but then stopped.

She didn't have a good impression of Bai Yifei.

Because she had heard that Bai Yifei often 'sucked' on young women.

"I thought you were only this kind to women."

After a moment's hesitation, Yan Lingji said in a seductive voice.

As soon as she finished speaking, she stuffed the leftover fried dough into Xu Lin's mouth.

She couldn't finish it.

"You mean Mo Ya is a woman?"

Xu Lin asked back.

Yan Lingji remained silent upon hearing this, and placed her jade-like legs on Xu Lin's lap, asking him to massage them for her.

She couldn't argue with Xu Lin.

Moreover, Bai Yifei's claim of 'using' young women was merely hearsay.

She needs solid evidence before she can tell Xu Lin about this.

"Now you don't call yourself a servant anymore?"

Xu Lin asked while gently pinching Yan Lingji's jade-like leg.

"There are plenty of people who want to serve my sister!"

"Don't you like legs?"

"This is a reward for you, sister!"

Yan Lingji retorted stubbornly.

Xu Lin smiled upon hearing this and increased the intensity.

……

A quarter of an hour later.

Yan Lingji went to the kitchen with a satisfied look on her face.

Xu Lin then rode his horse to the Han King's Palace.

Bai Yifei's matter is of utmost importance; he needs to get some information from Mingzhu first.

Before long, Xu Lin entered the Hundred Fragrances Hall as a physician.

Then, with his superb lightness skill, he bypassed the patrolling armored soldiers and entered the Pearl Hall.

When Xu Lin arrived at Mingzhu Palace, Mingzhu had just woken up.

Mingzhu doesn't have the habit of getting up early; she often sleeps until the sun is high in the sky.

When Mingzhu caught a glimpse of Xu Lin out of the corner of her eye, she was startled and immediately dismissed everyone around her.

After the maids had gone far away, Mingzhu got off the bed, placed her hands on her waist, and bowed.

"May I ask what brings you here so suddenly, sir?"

"I'm still working on the matter of the man in the straw raincoat..."

Mingzhu asked.

Before she could finish her words, she was interrupted by Xu Lin.

"No need for further investigation."

"The man in the straw raincoat is dead."

Xu Lin waved his sleeve and said.

Then he sat cross-legged in front of the table.

Upon hearing this, the mature and elegant Mingzhu was first taken aback, then startled.

She guessed that Xu Lin was going to make a move against the man in the straw raincoat, but she didn't expect it to happen so quickly!

As far as she knew, the man in the straw raincoat was quite skilled.

Moreover, the man in the straw raincoat is extremely vigilant, and killing him is by no means an easy task!
Xu Lin spoke with an air of nonchalance, as if he had simply stepped on an ant, which terrified Mingzhu.

Thinking of this, Mingzhu swallowed hard, then quickly stepped forward and personally poured Xu Lin a bowl of tea.

Xu Lin must have come on important business at this time.

Judging from Xu Lin's mood, he didn't seem to want to "eat" her. So what was the purpose of Xu Lin's sudden visit?
kill?
"Bai Yifei is your cousin?"

After more than ten breaths, Xu Lin asked.

"Yes."

Mingzhu nodded.

The Luo Wang assassins are everywhere, and the Shadow Guard assassins have also infiltrated Xinzheng. Can this matter be kept from Han Fei, Zhang Liang and others, and from Xu Lin?

What was his view of the Qin state?

Xu Lin took a sip of tea and asked expressionlessly.
