Do you have the strength to force me to join the Liangshan bandits?

Chapter 363 Just who is this man? [2 Updates]

"hiss--"

Everyone gasped in unison, then immediately covered their mouths in unison:
I didn't say anything! I didn't say anything at all!

I like obedient people.

Cai Fu, with his feet planted on the large head of the fat butler, held the wolf-head token in his left hand and the dripping ghost-head broadsword in his right, and said with a smile:

"As long as you obey me, I guarantee you will be safe and sound."

Although Cai Fu's smiling face was creepy, his words were quite convincing.

Yang Zaixing dragged the three corpses to Cai Fu's feet, where they lay down neatly side by side with the fat butler.

Listening to Cai Fu doesn't guarantee safety, but ignoring Cai Fu will certainly lead to death!
Don't believe me? Look at these still-warm corpses...

Cai Fu glanced at those who had stepped forward and were able to move freely in the inner quarters, then randomly selected a lucky audience member and pointed to a young maid:

"come here."

A middle-aged woman instinctively grabbed the young maid's hand, but Cai Fu frowned and she quickly let go.

The young maidservant timidly approached Cai Fu. Cai Fu, seeing her round, flat face resembling a garish, eye-catching woman, couldn't help but chuckle and asked:
"Are there any people who should have stepped forward but didn't?"

Maid: "Yes..."

Cai Fu said with a smile, "As long as you point out the people who should have stood up but didn't, I will reward you with one hundred taels of silver."

The maid's eyes lit up: "A hundred taels of silver?"

"It's true."

Cai Fu turned around and saw Princess Tianshou coming out with red eyes.

Cai Fu bluntly ordered her, "Princess, take some men to the treasury and move the silver."

Princess Tianshou was taken aback: "Move? How much?"

Cai Fu said generously, "Just move 10,000 taels of silver first, and if it's not enough, you can move more."

Good guy!
What do you mean by "selling one's father's land without a care in the world"?

Princess Tianshou's lips twitched subtly twice:

No, he's not my uncle's son!
I'm not either, so it's fine then.

Princess Tianshou immediately led dozens of guards away, causing everyone to gasp in surprise.
"hiss--"

This is Princess Tianshou, the apple of the eye of the Great Liao Wolf Lord!

Who doesn't know that Princess Tianshou was the most favored by the Liao Dynasty's Wolf King?

Princess Tianshou wanted to become a female general leading troops into battle, and the Great Liao Wolf Lord actually selected five thousand young and beautiful female soldiers for her!

Princess Tianshou liked white, so the Great Liao Wolf Lord equipped all five thousand female soldiers with "silver flower caps, silver chainmail, white robes with white tassels, white flags, white horses, and silver-handled swords and spears"!
Leaving aside the silver flowers, silver armor, silver swords, and silver spears, do you know how difficult it is to equip yourself with five thousand white horses?
The original novel doesn't mention the Great Liao Wolf Lord's affection for Princess Tianshou at all, but it vividly portrays it indirectly.

Even so, Princess Tianshou might not listen to whatever the Great Liao Wolf Lord asked her to do.

However, Princess Tianshou obeyed this man's every word!
Who exactly is this man?

The retired emperor?

Princess Tianshou soon led her guards out carrying out boxes of silver.

Cai Fu kicked over a large box, and gleaming silver coins rolled all over the ground!
"hiss--"

Everyone gasped in surprise at the sheer wealth.
Most people have never seen so much silver in their entire lives, let alone possessed so much silver...

The little maid's eyes were blurry: "I'll show you!"

"Wait a minute."

Cai Fu looked at those who had already stepped forward:

"Stop looking, all of you turn around."

Those who had already stepped forward had no choice but to turn around and face away from everyone.

Cai Fu then had the maid point to a dozen people, and she quickly pointed to them. Three of them were already lying neatly on the ground with the fat steward.

After pointing at the person, the maid glanced at Cai Fu and then at the silver. Cai Fu chuckled.
“Once you’ve taken the silver, you can transfer it to them as well.”

Overjoyed, the maid picked up one hundred taels of silver from the ground, held it in her arms, and turned around to stand properly.

Cai Fu then randomly selected a still attractive old woman from among those who had already stepped forward:

"She has already pointed out everyone, but I didn't let anyone stand up because I wanted to give you a chance."

“Point out the person, and you’ll get a hundred taels of silver.”

The still-attractive old woman thought Cai Fu had taken a liking to her, and overjoyed, she gave Cai Fu a flirtatious wink.

Although we don't know Cai Fu's identity, he can still order Princess Tianshou around!
If I were to befriend such a distinguished person, my ancestors' graves would be emitting auspicious smoke!
Since the young maid had already received one hundred taels of silver, the still-attractive old woman pointed out more than a dozen people.

When the maid pointed, Cai Fu turned away and didn't see it. Upon closer inspection, it matched the maid's pointing:
"reward!"

The still-attractive old woman picked up the hundred taels of silver and gave Cai Fu a flirtatious wink.

"Cha-"

Princess Tianshou suddenly drew half of the Seven Star Sword, startling the still-attractive old woman into quickly fleeing.

Cai Fu looked at the dozen or so servants who had been pointed out twice, including old women, maids, and household servants:
"Don't just stand there, come out."

The dozen or so servants panicked and rushed out, all kneeling before Cai Fu, kowtowing and shouting:

"Master, spare me! Master, spare me!"

Cai Fu asked them with a smile, "I said that if anyone hasn't stepped forward by the time I count to three, they will be killed without exception."

"You don't think I'm joking, do you?"

Yang Zaixing led his guards up and started killing without saying a word. He had no qualms about killing the Liao people.

Dozens of guards dragged the bodies of the dozen or so servants over and placed them together with the fat steward.

Nearly twenty corpses were neatly arranged in a row, and the air was filled with a strong smell of blood!
There must have been wrongful killings, but Cai Fu did not believe that Kangli Ding'an's family had been kidnapped without their knowledge.

Cai Fu didn't care why they knew but didn't report it; knowing but not reporting it was tantamount to being an accomplice of the Jurchen spies!

Cai Fu made those who had stood up turn around, and many of them vomited when they saw so many corpses.

The little maid with the round face vomited the most, but she held onto the silver tightly while vomiting.

"The next question is a buzzer-beater question."

Cai Fu grabbed a handful of gleaming silver:
"One hundred taels of silver for each question."

"Whoever answers quickly and well will get the silver."

"Answer all my questions, and you'll be rich enough to live a life of luxury."

Ugh--

Those servants who had no opportunity to move around the inner quarters, along with the guards, all slapped their thighs in unison:

That's a huge mistake!

Cai Fu glanced at them with a smile and asked:
"Does anyone know how the Emperor's brother-in-law's family disappeared?"

The round-faced maidservant, while vomiting, blurted out, "When I woke up, Madam and the others were gone!"

The still-attractive old woman exclaimed, "Madam and the others' quilts haven't even been taken apart, they've mysteriously disappeared!"

Several maids and servants rushed to answer, but their answers were all similar and not very helpful.

Cai Fu frowned and noticed that several people had serious expressions and seemed hesitant to speak.

Cai Fu immediately raised the price: "One thousand taels of silver."

"Whoever can give the correct answer will not only be rewarded with a thousand taels of silver, but as long as it was not the Imperial Brother-in-law's family that was kidnapped, I can decide to let bygones be bygones."
