Chapter 120 You Are So Beautiful
Master Hou and Mu Tingchuan sat down at the gazebo. Miyamoto Shinji stood behind Master Hou expressionlessly and quietly. Even if so appeared at this mont, it was difficult to notice his existence. Miyamoto Shinji was as sharp as his exceptional sword, which he was holding in his left hand. Unless he was killing, he would always hide his sharpness.
“Master Hou, how will you deal with Xiao Bing?”
Master Hou smiled faintly and said, “Do nothing and wait. He killed my right-hand arm. If I kill him, it doesn’t help the situation. Shouldn’t I recruit him and let him replace North Heaven Queen’s position?”
Mu Tingchuan looked sad. He said, “How can then Master Hou convince your people? North Heaven Queen is dead. Instead of avenging North Heaven Queen, Master Hou let the murderer take up her position. Will the others be convinced? They will start thinking. After following Master Hou, will Master Hou care about them if they’re killed one day? Master Hou, it’s not worth it.”
Master Hou was open-minded. He was open to listening to his people. Furthermore, Mu Tingchuan was Master Hou’s most trusted person. So, Mu Tingchuan can speak his mind.
Master Hou sighed and said, “Tingchuan, I know what you an. However, that person is staring covetously at our Jiang City’s underworld. Although I have a deep foundation, many masters and Tingchuan that man is very ambitious. He has been coveting the entire Hei Province’s underworld for a long ti. As he is jealous of , he doesn’t dare to strike. I think they can’t hold back any further.”
Mu Tingchuan appeared solemn. He said, “That man is a force to be reckoned with as he has swept through the entire northern regions. He has controlled two out of three Northern provinces. Hei Province is the only province which is still safe. His influence is similar to Cao Aman in the period of Three Kingdoms. Everything will be smooth sailing after the battle at the Red Cliff. However, Master Hou is well prepared and has been waiting for this day for a long ti. Although that man is very influential and no one can outmatch him, he has many enemies after unifying the forces in the two provinces. As he wants to unify H province before consolidating his forces, he may lose the will of his people. Master Hou may stand a chance.”
Master Hou said, “Even so, he can make use of his current influence. We must be cautious. He controls the power of two provinces while I only have the power of one. The difference is too great… that Xiao Bing could kill North Heaven Queen. He has shown extraordinary strength and strategy. He can be put into good use. Furthermore, I heard that he has a few masters. Once he follows , those masters will naturally work for .”
Master Hou said solemnly, “It’s not difficult for to kill him now. The hardest part is not to get injured while killing him. At this point in ti, any loss will be a huge crisis for . If Xiao Bing and his masters can work for , not only can we make up for the death of Peony, but there is also a chance to increase our influence.”
“As for the issue regarding the will of the people, which you have said before, I have also considered it. Hence, I have been thinking for a long ti… Haiz, it’s not that I am an uncaring person, but desperate tis call for desperate asures. The most important thing for those, who do great things, is the will of the people. I know this fact. This applies to all the emperors in the past. Those who win the will of the people own the world. If one wins the will of the people, one can turn the tide. Unfortunately, I can’t concern myself with the will of the people at this point in ti.”
Master Hou looked at Mu Tingchuan sincerely and said, “Tingchuan, you have been following closely. I would have to compromise the dead Peony’s interests temporarily. Can you help think of a way to recruit Xiao Bing and not lose the will of the people at the sa ti?”
Mu Tingchuan smiled bitterly and said, “Since Master Hou has already made his decision, why do you need to ask ?”
“Haiz” Master Hou sighed. “When Peony followed , I already knew that her intention. She wants to avenge her. Her eccentric personality is caused by her hatred. His enemy has a great influence in S City, so she is looking forward to the day when I can unify the underworld of the three Northern provinces. She can then use my power to find the enemy. However, only you and I know about this. The others don’t know…”
“What I an is that there is no need to make a mountain out of a molehill. You can say that North Heaven Queen has already wanted to betray and replace . Hence, she used my power to seek revenge from her enemy. Thus, the conflict between her and Xiao Bing escalated. She wanted to recruit more people, but was rejected.”
Master Hou said softly, “A batch of arms was secretly transported to Jiang City a few days ago. In the end, the police confiscated the guns and arrested the transporters. I am the one who secretly ordered people to send arms to Jiang City. They vouched not to leak the secret. Now is the right ti for them to speak up and make North Heaven Queen the scapegoat. The reason why North Heaven Queen wanted so many arms was that she wanted to replace .”
Mu Tingchuan said emotionally, “Master Hou is clever and far-sighted. Tingchuan admires your ingenuity.”
Master Hou said, “We shall hold a eting two days later. Gather all the leaders and announce this matter to them. They must keep this a secret. By the way, you should get those who were captured by the police ‘to confess’.”
Mu Tingchuan agreed and said, “Let’s not delay. I will go now.”
Mu Tingchuan walked out of the gazebo slowly. He suddenly felt a chill. Given any other tasks, he would probably do the sa. However, the saying “The ringleader was heartless” was indeed true. Although he was said to be the smartest, he would feel a chill when he thought of Master Hou’s ingenuity and ruthlessness. As a result, not only Master Hou didn’t avenge her, but she also indicted for treason.
If North Heaven Queen knew about this, she would not rest in peace.
Mu Tingchuan went to work. Master Hou sighed. He stood up, turned around and looked at Miyamoto Shinji. He asked, “Miyamoto, do you think my actions let Peony down?”
Miyamoto Shinji said calmly, “I am only responsible for Master Hou’s safety. I am not concerned with other matters. I don’t want to care and don’t want to ask.”
Master Hou humd in agreent. He then muttered, “Even so, Peony’s funeral should be a grand one. We can better to capture the will of the people by requiting evil with good. If Peony could see the day when I conquer the underworld of the three Northern provinces, she would be satisfied.”
No one knew the purpose of Master Hou’s last sentence. He said that to comfort himself or to deceive himself.
Xiao Bing was lying on the hospital bed. The pure little nurse Liu Kexin was ssaging Xiao Bing gently with both of her hands. Xiao Bing started moaning as he was getting very comfortable. Liu Kexin was embarrassed and protested coquettishly. “Can you stop moaning?”
“No. It’s so comfortable!”
“Then, then I will stop ssaging you.”
“How can you do that?” Xiao Bing said seriously, “This technique is passed down from my ancestors. I am the only male descendant. I was told that I can’t pass this technique to others. Now that I have taught you, couldn’t you give a ssage?”
“Then, then I should give you a ssage.” After listening to Xiao Bing, Liu Kexin was embarrassed. She negotiated and said, “Then can you stop… moaning?”
Xiao Bing smiled and said, “Hey, you little girl. You are too shy. But, we have the sa character. I like… then I won’t moan. I will bear with it. I’ll listen to you.”
Xiao Bing was an orphan. This mysterious technique was not passed down to him. However, no ordinary masseur knew such a technique. There were many talented people in Dragon Teeth. Xiao Bing learnt this technique from his buddy in Dragon Teeth. This technique was more effective than an ordinary massage. Being a nurse, Liu Kexin could provide better service to her patients with this skill. Therefore, Liu Kexin couldn’t refuse.
Xiao Bing’s fatigue was alleviated by Liu Kexin’s gentle massage and her soft voice. It was really comfortable. Xiao Bing’s worries seed to be greatly reduced.
While Liu Kexin was massaging Xiao Bing, Yezi suddenly opened the door and walked in. Xiao Bing was shocked as though the adulterous pair was caught red-handed by the wife. However, there was no such righteous adulterer and such an innocent adulteress in the world.
Upon seeing soone approaching, Liu Kexin didn’t think much but felt a little embarrassed. She retracted her hand, and said softly, “Call again when you need a massage. I will not disturb you.”
Xiao Bing deliberately raised his voice and said, “Thank you. The hospital provides such a great service. Apart from dical treatnt and physical therapy, there are acupuncture and massage. I feel much better.”
Liu Kexin exited the ward. Yezi smiled as she walked towards Xiao Bing. She sat next to Xiao Bing and pinched him slightly. She smiled and said, “Wow. The nurse’s massage technique is very good. You feel so refreshed after a casual massage. I should try and give a massage to you too.”
Xiao Bing waved his hand repeatedly. He smiled and said, “Knock it off. Knock it off. Otherwise, my flesh will be bruised.”
Yezi laughed. When she laughed, she had two dimples. Her eyes were more beautiful than the moon. Xiao Bing beca stunned.
Yezi reacted. There were hints of shyness and happiness in her eyes. She rolled her eyes seductively at Xiao Bing and snorted. “What are you looking at?”
“You look so beautiful.”
