“Sister! What kind of martial arts are you performing!” Hua Yujin’s handsome face twitched with pain. He couldn’t believe that his sister, who couldn’t perform any martial arts, could put forth such high-level inner energy.
“Brat, there is no limit in the universe. We should strive for better. Don’t despite anyone, go and get your finger bandaged up.” Hua Yueling gave him a good lesson.
“Ha-ha.” The nearby Minister Liao couldn’t help laughing. As a bosom friend of her father, he surely knew Hua Yueling, but to his surprise, she was such an amusing girl.
Hua Yueling went up to him and bowed, “Uncle Liao, please forgive my impoliteness.”
“Ling’er, I know. You have to build up your prestige and convince these guys. Never mind. Seeing your performance today, I have my confidence in you. About the spy, I am so sorry for the Emperor, and I hope you can help Him out.” Minister Liao said courteously.
“Don’t worry, my dear uncle. I will spare no efforts.” Hua Yueling was so confident that the success of it tonight was around the corner.
“Good, it is your turn. I have to do my business. Ling’er, welcome to join us!” Minister Liao never looked down upon Huang Yueling, for her mere translation of those words of the Kingdom of Lanyue had already astonished him. Thus, he confirmed that she was the lucky star of the Kingdom of Dayue.
“Thank you, uncle Liao.” Hua Yueling walked him out of the courtyard and then smiled to Hua Yujin, who was running to her, “Brat, do you feel it painful?”
“Sister, when did you learn the martial arts?” Hua Yujin was so curious about that. He knew Hua Yueling wore the Soft Gold Vest, but what he didn’t know was that she had a fingerstall, which was only known by the Fourth Prince and Ye You. Hua Yueling didn’t allow them to disclose the secret in case that she lost her prestige.
Some cries came out from the Penalty Room from time to time. It seemed that those soldiers and officials finally accepted their penalty.
The Fourth Prince was the first to be punished, who was spanked three times. After the punishment, he went up to Hua Yueling with a smile and stretched his hand to caress his hip, wearing a painful expression.
Hua Yueling hold one of his arms and said, “Brother Yixuan, you won’t blame me, will you?”
“I was almost scared to death when you said thirty times, which was quite enough to confine me in bed for half a month.” The Fourth Prince forced a smile.
“Of course not, I just wanted to scare them. Look! How obedient they are now!” Hua Yueling raised her eyebrows and answered complacently.
“Ling’er, you certainly have some way, and I have learned a lot from it. I will be strict with them in the future.” The Fourth Prince didn’t scold Hua Yueling, but instead he learned this lesson without any complaint.
“Sis, the Forth Prince doesn’t make a fuss about what you did. But you should not go too far.” Hua Yujin thought his sister overdid a little. She beat the Fourth Prince today. If he continued to have a further investigation, it would invite another big trouble.
“I dared to play this trick because I knew Brother Yixuan wouldn’t mind. But as for you, if you are not convinced, you will surely kick up a fuss and want to fight with me!” Hua Yueling glanced at Hua Yuejin in contempt.
“Ha-ha, Ling’er, how many people do you want?” Seeing someone come out, Nangong Yixuan quickly changed the topic.
“Two groups. People in group one must be the elite of the elites. Five in all. Follow me to go through fire and water, and the most important thing is that they must have team spirit. The other team should consist of 30 people to take part in the secret round up.” Hua Yueling had planned it for a long time.
“Well, how are you going to choose?” The Forth Prince frowned.
“Knockout. Pick the top 50 first, and then check again. But I have to do one thing before I choose!” Hua Yueling narrow her shrewd eyes.
“About what?” Hua Yujin hold his fingers and said in curiosity.
“Make sure there are no spies in this team!” Hua Yueling smiled coldly.
The Forth Prince became serious, “Is there a spy in the Ministry of Penalty?”
“I didn’t say that. But just in case, you hit their acupoint and check their teeth. If someone's teeth have fixed marks in this position, get him out. That’s because any selected spy would commit suicide by biting the poison hidden in his teeth once he should be caught.” Hua Yueling looked at them and said slowly and seriously.
“Just like Jing Fu?” Hua Yujin said in amazement.
“Right! Clear?” Hua Yueling looked at their shocked face.
“Got it!” Hua Yujin and Nangong Yixuan looked at each other and nodded. Then they turned to look at the people who rubbed their butts. They couldn’t imagine what a big trouble it would be if there were spies in this group!
Fifteen minutes later, more than one hundred soldiers and officials stood in the yard orderly again.
The Forth Prince and Hua Yujin came over to them, and Naogong Yixuan shouted, “The Lady will choose five people to follow her to go through fire and water. They will form an elite team, and the salaries of these five people will be quintupled. And they only need to obey the orders of Miss Hua. Besides, they will have the chance to be promoted!”
“Wow...” Everyone was excited and began to try to fight for the chance.
“Second. We will choose thirty people. They will form a raid term. It means they have to be ordered to act anytime and the salaries of these people will be doubled. Now, according to the order of the Lady, I want to make a special examination for you. Lord Hua and I will hit the important acupoint on the chest. You don’t have to panic, just cooperate! Understand?”
“Yes!” Soldiers shouted all with one voice. Although they were confused, they were all excited about the promised rising pay. Everyone wanted to be on the first group.
Hua Yueling stood aside with a smile which didn’t accord with her intention. Her slanted eyes were slightly narrowed like a lazy cat.
Ye You still stood behind her, emotionless. He has complete admiration for her the means and strategies.
Nangong Yixuan and Hua Yujin started to point the soldiers important appoints on the chest, which made them unable to move. But actually Hua Yueling knew that even if the acupoints were pointed, the spy could still bite the poison hidden in the teeth. Because the upper and lower teeth were too close, it was OK to move the teeth a little, but it would not be so easy as their acupoints had been pointed, and the strength would be small, too. But she still warned Ye You to pay attention to the special people together.
The whole yard was amazingly silent. Hua Yueling and Ye You looked at everyone in the yard, while Nangong Yixuan and Hua Yujin pinched each soldiers cheeks to check their teeth. They two almost died of suffocation of various smelly breath.
As time went by quickly, Nangong Yixuan and Hua Yujin became more and more disappointed for they shook their heads every time when they had checked one.
But at this time, Hua Yueling noticed that a man was sweating on his forehead, and his eyes were also flickering, which finally squinted at the left side of his team. Hua Yueling smiled, because the soldier he squinted at was sweating, too.
Hua Yueling turned her head and looked at Ye You. Getting her signal, Ye You nodded to her gently.
“Prince.” Hua Yueling called Nangong Yixuan back, and said something to his ear. The Fourth Prince nodded quietly and went on to the troop, while Ye You also moved to the suspicious one who was close to him.
“Catch!” Hua Yueling shouted out angrily. The Fourth Prince and Ye You made moves, pinching the cheeks of the suspects at the same time. Their lighting speed didn’t allow any chance for them to respond even though they both had noticed something wrong. The Fourth Prince and Ye You hit the two men’s cheeks at the same time only to find several teeth mixed with blood spit on the ground.
“Put them in jail and remember not to let them die!” Hua Yueling confessed.
Puzzled as they were, they were soon unlocked. Knowing that it was for catching the spy, they couldn’t help admiring her more.
“Well, now is the time to select elites. Knockout! In pairs. Now find your own opponent and start!” Hua Yueling announced loudly, full of confidence! All of a sudden, such a chaos pervaded in the whole yard, which was very boisterous.
Hua Yueling chuckled with the corner of her mouth twitched. She left it over to Hua Yujin, while she herself set her foot to the jail of the Ministry of Penalty for the first time of her whole life.
“Sister! What kind of martial arts are you performing!” Hua Yujin’s handsome face twitched with pain. He couldn’t believe that his sister, who couldn’t perform any martial arts, could put forth such high-level inner energy.
