As expected, upon hearing these words, the ten men immediately frowned in dissatisfaction. It wasn't easy to get a chance to vent their anger, but they still went easy on him. What was the point of this? Did the captain want them to fake it?
Li Ru understood, "Yu Yang, you step down. This is a matter between us, it's not up to you to interrupt!" Cheng Ziheng finally smiled, and even Dazhuang smiled.
"I will keep my word. Since this is a competition, I will let you guys play your part. Whoever dares to hide his head from me will be treated as a ball by me!" This was what everyone wanted, to be in high spirits.
"Then, Princess, I apologize for my offense!" While he was speaking, a man had already rushed over to Liru viciously to avoid the attack. He glanced at the nine people surrounding him out of the corner of his eyes and could not help but curse out loud. F * ck, when would it be completed, with such a rotation? She had a lot of things to do today, so she couldn't waste them all here.
"Everyone attack together, what are you saying? This princess does not have the time to waste with you! " Even though the crowd felt that the princess was too arrogant upon hearing his words, they were willing to join in as well.
However, everyone had truly underestimated Li Ru. If Qing Gong was not as good as them, then wouldn't it be her specialty to fight in close quarters?
In the blink of an eye, the little princess, who had thought that she would be beaten to the ground, had kicked the ten men to the ground, leaving the rest petrifying.
"Alright, this princess has won. I hope you all will keep your promises. We will meet again in a month!" Li Ruo stopped and directly smiled at Yu Yang and Cheng Ziheng without waiting for their orders. She then turned and left, but before she left, she gave Dazhuang a meaningful look.
By the time Ruo Ruo returned to the general's manor, it was almost dark. She swept her gaze around the hall, but did not see Xuanyuan Mo. She casually asked a few questions before finding out that he was in the study.
Without waiting for the butler's report, he went to look for her.
"Xuanyuan Mo!"
"Enter!" His cold voice was just like his outer appearance; it did not have any extra emotion.
"Why are you looking for this general?" Seemingly expecting that Li Yurou would come looking for him, Xuanyuan Mo wasn't too surprised.
"That, do I have a month's money?" Li Ruo asked bluntly as she closed the door behind her. She did not care about Xuanyuan Mo's impoliteness.
"Monthly money?" Xuanyuan Mo raised his head and was slightly taken aback. It was as if he didn't expect that the woman would come asking for money.
"What do you want money for?" Thus, he asked instead of answering.
"Do you not care about the one hundred and one who sent you the bride who are out of food?" Liru didn't bother to reply. It was too difficult to talk to ancient people.
"Those are your people. What does it have to do with me?" Xuanyuan Mojiao chuckled and asked a question in reply.
"…" Li Ruo remained silent. She didn't think that Xuanyuan Mo was stingy, but instead felt that he was right. Those people really had nothing to do with him. His reply was within her expectations.
Thinking that Liru would give up just like that, Xuanyuan Mo felt uninteresting and lowered his head, preparing to read the rest of the documents.
"Xuanyuan Mo, why don't we have a bet again?" Liruo suddenly approached and carefully examined the papers on the table.
"Oh?" Xuanyuan Mo raised his head and answered with great interest, but he realized that Liru was not looking at him and was only carefully examining the items on the table.
Her eyes turned deep. This case was sent by the Ministry of Justice two days ago. Could it be that she understood it?
"I'll help you find the murderer. Are you in charge of the life of the 101, as well as my daily life and expenses?"
"Hmm?" Xuanyuan Mo found this funny. He was a great general, how could he not find the culprit?
Besides, how could Li Ruo be so sure that she could find the killer herself?
This case seemed simple, but it wasn't. Otherwise, he wouldn't be here studying it at this time. However, he could find the murderer, but it would take some time.
After all, no matter how smart he was, he was still just a great general. Leading troops to war was fine, but to solve this case would probably require some thought.
Furthermore, these matters were not under the control of the General's Estate. However, since the deceased person was a member of the General's Estate, it was normal for the case to be transferred over.
"I bet that I can find the killer within a day. So, General, do you bet?" Liru frowned slightly. She knew that Xuanyuan Mo would definitely be able to find the culprit, but there was nothing she could do.
"Alright!" Just when Li Ruo thought Xuanyuan Mo would not agree, he smiled.
"Why?" Li Ruo's eyebrows furrowed, she had clearly seen the rejection in Xuanyuan Mo's eyes.
"Because this general is really curious. This case that has troubled the Ministry of Justice for a week and me for two days, how dare you say that you've found the murderer within a day!"
"Ha!" Li Ruo smiled. She had already made a preliminary judgement after reading the report. She only needed to check the corpse and the scene.
"Have you eaten dinner?" At this moment, Xuanyuan Mo's stomach was making light noises. Only then did he realize that he was too focused on eating and did not feel that this was anything to be embarrassed about. Thus, Xuanyuan Mo asked.
"Not yet!" After leaving the courtyard, she went to the blacksmith's shop to get the weapons she needed, and even went to the clothing shop to make clothes. Afterwards, she went to several other places, and with the addition of the fact that she had exhausted too much of her physical strength, she was already hungry.
"Then let's discuss the case together!" Understanding the situation, Xuanyuan Mo turned around to lead the way.
