Chapter 840: 2 female 1 mushroom

"Okay."
Just as Luo Jie was about to take the croquettes from "Esdes", "Esdes" suddenly grabbed his head and slightly leaned over to cover his lips.
Ah... this...
Luo Jie couldn't help but widen his eyes, staring in surprise at the "Esdes" who was clearly familiar from the inside out, and now seemed to be a little strange.
When did the Queen become so provocative?
"Is it interesting?" "Esdes" raised his head, seeming to be satisfied with Luo Jie's reaction. He tucked the long hair that fell near his ears, and smiled: "I just saw a couple on the road doing just that. So I want to try..."
It turned out to be sold now.
Wait, the one who lowered his head to feed the is obviously a man, right?
"Esdes" What are you expecting in your eyes? It's impossible for me to punch your chest with a small punch...
"Well, that... tastes really good. I will show you the catch market and the port terminal."
Luo Jie coughed slightly and turned off the subject.
After making a round in Haiqing City, the carriage returned to the Lord's Mansion again.
Luo Jie was not in a hurry to get off the car, knocked on the window to signal the driver to leave first, and asked "How do you feel?"
"Esdes" thought about it for a while, and gave a truthful evaluation: "Although I don't know much about internal affairs, I can see that your generals are governed quite well. The smiles of the people are real, and some I said Something that can't be produced-but I still don't understand, how do you induce a night attack like this? As far as I know, they have always dealt only with officials and nobles who are oppressing the people for disaster."
Luo Jie smiled, stretched out his index finger and shook: "This may be the case for the night attack, but it is definitely not the case for the high-level rebels."
"Esdes" became interested, and leaned on the soft seat back and raised his legs, doing an earful gesture.
"The rebels are currently in the south. Although they have captured many of the empire's cities, they are only occupied. The lives of the people have not been fundamentally improved, and they are even more difficult due to the repeated tug-of-war between the empire and the rebels."
"The reason why the people stay in the rebel-controlled area is because the high-level rebels drew them a beautiful pie. Instead of fleeing to other places and continuing to live a life of oppression and exploitation by officials and nobles, it is better to stay and grit their teeth. Gamble on the future."
"But the people are also the most pragmatic. They chose to go to the dark side by side with the rebels because they had no way to survive before. But what if there is a place where they can work and eat?"
"Esdes" is not the kind of aristocratic eldest lady who doesn't know the sufferings of the people. Growing up on the northern border with cold and cold, she also experienced hunger and cold, and knew what kind of life the people at the bottom wanted.
"Are you talking about Haiqingcheng?"
"Yes, according to recent statistics by local officials, ordinary people from areas controlled by the rebels have begun to appear in Haiqing City to beg for life. And this is just the beginning. As long as these people settle down in Haiqing City, they will form a demonstration. Effect, attracting more people from the rebel-occupied areas to Taidong Province."
"Whether it is soldiers or logistical support, the war is ultimately fought by people. In recent years, the rebel forces have continued to expand because of the support of the people behind them. However, once the people flee in large numbers, their foundation will be shaken directly."
"Although the rebels are chanting slogans for the people, they never want to see such a peaceful and prosperous scene appearing on the empire's territory. In order to preserve their rights, the high-level rebels now have only two options-one is blockade. It is strictly forbidden to rule the people to go to the imperial ruling area; the other is to find a way to destroy Haiqing City and completely cut off the hope in the hearts of the people."
"The first type is definitely unrealistic. Once a compulsory blockade is imposed, the rebels will lose the morality they have always advertised. By then, they will lose not only the hearts of the people, but also the hearts of the military."
"So their only option is to destroy Haiqing City, the rising city of hope."
"And the fastest and the most once-and-for-all way to destroy Haiqing City is naturally to kill me, the acting lord who created everything."
"In fact, I have been assassinated by a rebel assassin before, but they obviously miscalculated the defense force of the lord mansion and our personal strength, and the dozen or so assassins sent by them were wiped out."
"So it turned out to be a good plan."
"Esdes" nodded in approval. Although she is more accustomed to using violence to solve problems, it does not hinder her appreciation and recognition of wisdom itself.
She has always spoiled Luo Jie, but she doesn't want her lover to be a waste who needs to live under her protection forever.
But she also knows that because of the relationship between Digu [Appearance of Demon God·Essence of Devil], no man in this world can match her in strength.
Now Luo Jie has shown extraordinary planning ability and territorial management ability, which from a certain angle can be regarded as making up for the regret in her heart.
"According to the practice of the rebels, if the ordinary assassins fail to assassinate, they will inevitably send out the trump card night attack."
The doubt in "Esdes" was gone, she nodded, and suddenly stared at Luo Jie's eyes with a very serious expression. The silent silence made the air in the whole carriage seem to freeze instantly.
Luo Jie had long foreseen that there would be such a scene, and smiled calmly: "Just ask what you want."
"Okay, the last question. I hope your answer will not disappoint me." "Esdes" took a deep breath, put his hand on the saber around his waist, and the cold chill shattered the flash in his eyes. "I heard that you have wiped out thousands of pirates on 13 islands on the sea overnight without mobilizing the city defense forces. Obviously this is not something you can do alone-who is helping? you?"
Luo Jie knew that the pirate incident was the only flaw he revealed when he traveled through Haiqingcheng. Perhaps others hadn't noticed it, but he definitely couldn't hide the "Esdes" who was extremely sensitive to battle.
Fortunately, he was prepared for this, staring calmly into the eyes of "Esdes", and replied: "I hired a team of killers."
"Killer?"
"Esdes" was a little surprised. She suspected that Luo Jie had reached a certain deal with some power, or simply a spy of a certain power planted in the empire, but she did not expect to get such an answer.
"I came here as a bait. I may face the assassination of the rebels at any time. Even many local nobles want my life. In this case, I hired a few masters to protect my safety. , Working for me at the same time, it doesn’t seem to be incomprehensible, right?"
"Esdes" slowly lowered his hand on the hilt, but still did not fully believe Luo Jie's explanation.
"What kind of killer is it that can kill thousands of pirates overnight? Why have I never heard of such a powerful person in the empire?"
"But the leader of the killer organization said that she knows you very well and used to cook mushrooms in the wild together."
Luo Jie's words made "Esdes"'s eyelids jump, and he subconsciously remembered the shameful scene in his childhood and the first kiss that he almost lost. UU reading www.uukanshu.com
"The leader of the killer organization you mentioned...couldn't it be a woman with a mole on her left eye?"
Luo Jie smiled noncommitantly, pushed the door and jumped out of the carriage, snapped his fingers towards the deserted courtyard.
"Melard" dressed in the iconic tight-fitting assassin, along with female futon members "Cassandola", "Gilbert", "Taiko", "Mi La", "Loris" and others came from the courtyard one after another He jumped out of the window of the mansion beside him and fell on one knee in front of the carriage one after another.
"Master Tazmi!"
"Esdes"'s expression was a bit complicated, but then a relaxed smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
Sure enough, it was the Oberg killer association.
As an organization that had been on the empire's blacklist, "Esdes" was very aware of the association of this killer in the name of the of death. They had no political stance, and they were just a group of killing tools for collecting money and doing things.
It’s just one thing that makes "Esdes" a little strange. She has clearly seen the news that the Oberg Killer Association has been destroyed in the Imperial Reports. Why do these people still appear in front of her alive?
But this kind of doubt only passed away in her mind, after all, it was not important.
Oberg's killer association still exists in the world, which means that the report she saw was wrong, and it was enough to know this.
"Esdes, speaking of which we haven't seen each other for ten years, you are more beautiful than ten years ago."
"Melard" stood up, winked and smiled, provocatively licking his lips at "Esdes".
"I'm stronger than ten years ago." "Esdes" smiled coldly, the cold air in his raised palm, the lawn under his feet quickly condensed a piece of frost, "If you dare to do the same to me last time I will freeze you and throw you on the iceberg in the far north."
