Chapter 476: Chapter 477 She has seen so many of these little dramas in her last life!

After it got dark, the Black Feather Guard watching the Cui Residence reported that Cui Zhi had returned from outside, drunkenly blustering, as if he was in high spirits over some good fortune.

“Shall we go now?” Qi Yue glanced at the Shichen, “Leave early, return early?”

Zhao Xiyan agreed too.

Immediately, the two of them changed their clothes and took special care to tidy up so as not to give away their identities.

By the time they arrived at the Cui Residence, it was already between 9 and 11 PM.

At this time, some people were already sleeping, some were getting ready to sleep, and this Cui Zhi obviously differed from most.

This place was merely Cui Zhi’s secondary residence; besides the butler in the front courtyard and a few women maintained in the back, there were no others.

However, this also made it more convenient to deal with him.

Looking at the third courtyard where Cui Zhi was located, Qi Yue curled her lips.

With the situation as it was, even if he was beaten to a cripple, probably no one would come.

Indeed, the two made their way to the backcourt like they were entering uninhabited territory, not seeing a single soul.

Now, with the weather hot, the windows were all open.

Through a window, Qi Yue saw a seductive woman in a sheer dress attending to Cui Zhi, offering him water.

The room was in disarray, clothes thrown all over, clearly, something had happened here earlier.

“Master, why are you so happy today? Is there some good news?”

“Go away, don’t pry! Is that something you need to know?” Cui Zhi pushed the woman’s cup of water further away with his hand.

“Ouch, master…just now when you walked through the door you were sweet-talking me and then you made it hurt so much…”

As she spoke, the woman wrapped a bare leg around Cui Zhi’s waist, her entire body twining around him like water creeper.

“…hehe…did I make it uncomfortable for you? You even dare to complain…”

Qi Yue was watching with interest when she suddenly saw Cui Zhi, as if possessed, shoving the woman away and screaming nonstop.

“Ahh…ahhhhh…”

The scene was as if he had seen a demon.

“You like watching?”

A sinister voice rang by her ear, and Qi Yue immediately turned around to meet Zhao Xiyan’s extremely beautiful face.

“I…” Qi Yue chuckled sheepishly, only then remembering that she had been too engrossed and had forgotten about Zhao Xiyan.

“You what?” the man asked with a stern face.

“I…I was just looking, didn’t mean anything else…”

Qi Yue continued to chuckle sheepishly, cursing inwardly hundreds of times.

She had seen so much of this kind of small theater in her last life!

The content was far more exciting than what was happening in front of her.

What’s the big deal?

However, the increasingly dark expression on Zhao Xiyan’s face made her inexplicably nervous.

Suddenly remembering that Cui Zhi was an easy target, she quickly pushed Zhao Xiyan aside and walked inside.

“Hehe…let’s talk about this after, first let’s deal with the matter at hand!”

Upon entering the room, the chaos was even worse than it appeared from outside.

Qi Yue glanced at the undergarments hanging on the canopy hooks, her lips twitching wordlessly.

So old and still so lively, this Cui Zhi really is something!

She looked at Cui Zhi, who sat with a stunned face, shivering, and walked directly to the woman’s side, checking her breath.

—Fortunately, Zhao Xiyan had only knocked her out, or else Qi Yue would have been inconvenienced by having to rescue her!

Casually grabbing the quilt from the bed to cover her, she then called out to the outside.

“Come in.”

Cui Zhi, already frightened by the commotion, wrapped and rewrapped his clothes around himself shakily.

But after calming down slightly, as someone accustomed to the scene, he managed to speak smoothly, and rather fluently too.

“Gentlemen, are you here for money or for life? I’m willing to pay, please spare me! Have mercy!”

Qi Yue’s eyes darted around.

Someone was offering money, so why turn it down unless you’re a fool?

“Cui Zhi, what do you think we are? Traveling this far just for your pathetic life, what’s that to us?”

Upon hearing this, Cui Zhi immediately started kowtowing.

“I beg you, masters, to spare my life, I’m willing to pay for it!”

Listening to the thudding sound of his forehead hitting the floor, Qi Yue was impressed.

It would be embarrassing to kill someone like him, his will to survive was too strong.

“As you saw, we could have taken your life just now, play any tricks, and you’ll be the next to die!”

Cui Zhi immediately brightened up, scrambling onto the bed to get a wooden box.

“Great warriors, all my valuables are in here, please, don’t kill me!”

Zhao Xiyan took the box, glanced at it, and then at Qi Yue.

Although the man did not speak, his expression said it all; was over two hundred thousand silver notes worth all this trouble?

Qi Yue rolled her eyes, silently accusing him.

What did he know?

Not taking the money would be foolish; taking it was a simple, logical choice.

To her, two hundred thousand silver notes might be nothing, but it was still good enough to reward others!

Even a tiny fly is meat after all!

She reached into the box and pulled out a stack of silver notes, leaving the deeds to properties and shops untouched.

After all, they were of no use to her.

Zhao Xiyan tossed the box back to Cui Zhi before he began to speak.

“Since silver is not enough, you will compensate with information. Speak, where did you send that tall man a few days ago? What was his purpose?”

At those words, Cui Zhi’s beady eyes instantly widened, his already pale face turning a few shades lighter with shock.

“You, you’re the Emperor’s men?!”

The Emperor’s men?!

Zhao Xiyan and Qi Yue exchanged a glance, a surge of suspicions swiftly rising in their minds.

The “Emperor” Cui Zhi referred to must be Emperor Han Linghe of Nanyue.

But this made things even stranger.

If Li Tianyi’s actions were related to the Emperor, then Cui Zhi wouldn’t have been so surprised!

On the contrary, Cui Zhi knew his actions went against the Emperor.

This meant that the matter they were investigating, the business about lightning, had nothing to do with Emperor Han Linghe of Nanyue?!

Both of them pondered deeply but did not let any extra emotion show on their faces.

With a swift look, Qi Yue immediately scolded sharply.

“How dare you speculate about our intentions?! Speak quickly about the matter!”

Cui Zhi truly took them for Han Linghe’s men and blurted everything out clearly and straightforwardly.

“Officials, everything I’ve said is the truth, I’ve told you everything I know. I’m just in charge of procuring people for them, beyond that, I know nothing else, I haven’t done anything else!”

Qi Yue hadn’t expected that Cui Zhi truly knew nothing.

He only knew that people were demanded from the military camp, soldiers willing to die, and that the demand was high every year.

Since they had paid with silver and signed a contract, no one cared about these people’s lives or families; there were never any issues.

And Li Tianyi was just one of the many he had sent in.

The only suspicious part was that Li Tianyi had sought him out in advance to make arrangements.

As there was a benefit for him, he didn’t care much about the details and just delivered the person as agreed upon and considered the matter settled.

Gleaning just this small amount of information was clearly not what Qi Yue wanted, so she probed further into the matters concerning the rainy season.

Only then did she achieve a bit more insight.
