Chapter 450: Wealthy Red Entrance Stinks of Wine and Meat

“Mm-hmm. Is anyone causing trouble at the city gate?”

“My Lord, don’t worry. Your humble servant has already sent more people to guard the city gates. Those people will definitely not be able to enter.” “Mm-hmm. Don’t let them come in and cause trouble for me.”

As Lord Wei spoke, he grabbed his chopsticks to pick up a piece of meat and put it into his mouth. To everyone’s surprise, he spat out the meat after chewing it once. “Why is this meat cooked so badly? How dare you bring such an awful-tasting thing to me? Take it away, take it away. Take everything away.”

The caretaker quickly ordered the dishes on the table to be removed. Then, he brought up some fruits and snacks.

Su Ying’s almond-shaped eyes turned ominous. The commoners outside the city couldn’t even get a drink of water. As a local official, he was actually hiding in his residence and feasting and drinking in abundance. Not only did he not think about how to provide disaster relief, but he also wanted to plunder the people’s wealth. He really deserved to die!

With such a City Guardian in Luo City, the people inside and outside the city could only wait for death.

Even if she could find a way to send a message to the Imperial Court, it would take at least ten days to half a month for the Imperial Court to send officials down after confirming the situation. By then, it would be too late. The only solution now was to have someone who could earn the trust of Luo City’s people as well as intimidate Lord Wei step forward.

Su Ying pondered for a moment before entering her interspatial store. Then she deployed the messenger eagle to send a message to the nearest Red Demon Sect member.

That night, the person in charge of the Red Demon Sect’s base in Luo City found the inn where Su Ying was staying.

The person who came thought that Su Ying was here to a.s.sign tasks. After confirming the sect token in her hand, he asked, “What mission does Sect Master have for me this time?”

“I want you guys to disguise as Imperial Guards and escort the Empress to Luo City in two days.”

The man who came raised his head in shock. He thought he had misheard. The people of the Red Demon Sect had always been in the business of killing people. When did they start to provide security escorts for people?

“Sect Master wants to a.s.sa.s.sinate the Empress? Wait. Wasn’t the Empress dead a long time ago? Which kingdom’s Empress do you wish to a.s.sa.s.sinate?” Su Ying’s almond-shaped eyes stared at him ominously. The pitch-black eyes looked so deep and dark that it made that man’s heart freeze. “Aren’t you talking too much?”

That man got a shock and scolded himself under his breath that he had crossed the line. “Understood, Sect Master.”

You guys just need to pretend that you are real members of the Imperial Guards. The only thing you need to do is protect the Empress and ensure her safety. You don’t need to know anything else, understand?” Su Ying said faintly. “Yes. Your subordinate understands.”

Su Ying slowly stood up and walked up to him. As she gazed down at him, she exuded a pressure that the man found hard to ignore. “Remember, as a member of the Red Demon Sect, what you guys have to do is to obey orders and obey orders absolutely. If you dare to have any thoughts of disloyalty, you should know what will happen to you.”

The person’s heart beat faster inexplicably. As he looked at this person before his eyes who had summoned him, a person who was not that tall but had a particularly intimidating gaze, he felt an indescribable fear inwardly. ”Yes. Your subordinate understands.”

“Go and prepare now. The day after tomorrow, wait for her three miles outside Luo City.”

“Yes, Sect Master.”

After the Red Demon Sect member left, Su Ying brought Zhou Qing out of the interspatial store.

Zhou Qing only felt a faint fragrance waft into her nose. She opened her eyes groggily and saw Su Ying sitting in front of the bed.

Her eyes were full of bafflement. She looked around and was even more surprised. “Young Master…”

Su Ying helped her up. “Are you feeling better?”

Zhou Qing rubbed her head. She didn’t seem to be feeling any discomfort, just a little sore. “What… what happened to me?”

Su Ying poured her a cup of hot water. “You fell sick in the desert and were unconscious the entire time. Fortunately, our journey out of the desert went smoothly. We’re already in Luo City now.”

Zhou Qing was even more astonished when she heard this. Had she been unconscious for so long? She frowned and tried to recall. She had indeed heard Su Ying’s concerned voice before she fell unconscious. At that time, she had also felt unwell, so she must have really fallen ill.

“We’re already in Luo City?”

“Mm-hmm. But the situation in Luo City is not too good. I need you to do something.”

Zhou Qing saw that Su Ying’s face was stern, so she also became serious.

“Young Master, please go ahead.”

“The drought in Luo City caused great suffering to the people, but the local officials in Luo City do not care about the lives of the people. I have already informed the Empress about this. The Empress, who had originally planned to return to the capital, decided to come to Luo City to deal with this matter. However, due to her haste, there is no one by her side to serve her. The day after tomorrow, you will ride a horse out and wait for the Empress’s convoy at a location three miles away. At that time, you can just serve by the Empress’s side.”

Zhou Qing was even more surprised when she heard this. This guy actually wanted her to serve the Empress? This was an opportunity that many people could not get even if they wanted to!

Zhou Qing got up and knelt down in front of Su Ying to kowtow to her. “Thank you for your recommendation, Young Master.” To her, he was giving her a chance to perform in front of the Empress. If she performed well, she might be able to stay by the Empress’s side in the future. This was definitely the best place for her to go after returning to the kingdom.

Su Ying really hadn’t thought too much about it. She just felt that she needed someone she could trust by her side. She didn’t want those Red Demon Sect members to get involved in the Imperial Court’s affairs for the time being. “Work hard by the Empress’s side and the Empress will not treat you unfairly.” “Yes. I will definitely do my best until my dying day.”

Su Ying also felt that if the news of her appearance in Luo City spread, Xiao Jin would definitely send someone over. At that point, no one would be able to cover up the situation in Luo City. This way, not only would the matter in Luo City be resolved, but she could even let Xiao Jin know that she was still alive and currently in Luo City.

After making her decision, Su Ying went to the grandmother and grandson’s room.

When Su Ying entered the room, the child had already woken up. Perhaps the medicine had already taken effect. Although he was still weak, he looked fairly alert.

“Is the child better?”

The old woman said gratefully, “He’s better, he’s better. After he woke up, I fed him some pancakes. He can even talk to me.”

“Continue to take the medicine I left for you. You guys can stay here for the time being. Don’t worry about anything else. After I have more or less settled my business, I will come back to check on you guys.” As Su Ying spoke, she took out some pancakes and dried meat that she had retrieved from her interspatial store and placed them on the table. These food items were enough to last them for ten days to half a month.

“The inn will provide a pot of water every day. You can just take it when given.”

When she saw how thoughtful Su Ying was, the old woman’s grat.i.tude was beyond words. “I really don’t know how to thank you, Young Master. You’re truly our savior.”

“Just rest well for the next few days.”

“Sure, sure, sure.”

Su Ying came out of the guest room and was about to return to her own room when she saw a few people carrying quite a number of baskets into the inn.

When the innkeeper saw those people, he smiled and went over to welcome them.

“Brother w.a.n.g, it’s you. What brings you here, Brother w.a.n.g?”

“Naturally, it’s because I have something good to tell you, Innkeeper Li Now everyone knows that the city is short of food and clothing. Our master has been worrying over this issue and hasn’t been able to eat or drink. But he managed to come up with a good idea. Take a look. He has sent you all these goods.” Innkeeper Li looked at the things in the wicker basket and was very puzzled “What are these things inside the baskets?”
