Seeing the sincerity in Chen Yao's eyes, Ji Jie felt warm in his heart. This is the benefit of helping others.
"Haha, you should go back to Dazhou with everyone. I am a grown man and I don't need to take care of me!" Ji Jie thought she was worried and said with a smile: "I promise you in the name of Lord Zhaowen that when we arrive, After the Great Week, there will be dedicated personnel to arrange your life and work, so you no longer have to worry about being bullied by bandits and robbers."
In order to allow these girls to follow Xiong Kui to Zhou Dynasty safely, he did not hide his identity. The three words "Zhao Wenjun" have long been heard throughout the land of China and are deeply loved by the people of the Central Plains.
Some people may say that since these girls are Koreans, wouldn't it be more appropriate to hand them over to the local officials?
Ji Jie has more things on his mind. First of all, doing so may reveal his and Xiong Kui's identities. The government officials will definitely ask what you do, how you happened to be robbed by bandits, and why you are so good at fighting. Ten bandits are no match!
Ji Jie's identity should not be known to outsiders unless it was absolutely necessary. After all, Zhou Dynasty and South Korea were at war, and they had killed 30,000 of their siege troops a few days ago. There was no guarantee that the Koreans would not have resentment in their hearts.
Secondly, they are all weak girls. It is likely that after being accepted by the government, they were sent to the homes of princes and nobles for their enjoyment.
Therefore, sending it to Dazhou is the best choice.
Seeing that Ji Jie refused to agree, Chen Yao quickly knelt on the ground and said: "Your Highness, please let me stay by your side. The moment my parents and family were killed, I swore to avenge them! Your Highness killed those bandits." , you have avenged me, and this little girl is willing to serve you all her life to repay your kindness! If you don’t agree, I will die in front of you right now. Since you don’t accept my revenge, then you will pretend that you never saved me!”
After saying that, Chen Yao had a dagger in her hand and placed it on her neck, and tears began to well up in her eyes.
Ji Jie quickly said: "Don't be impulsive, or you may hurt yourself..."
Xiong Kui came over and said to Ji Jie's ear: "Your Majesty, I think you'd better nod in agreement. It's obvious that this girl has a strong personality! It's a bit uncomfortable to leave you alone after I leave. Don’t worry, she’s a native Korean, and this mission is so special, she might be able to help somewhere!”
There was some truth to this, so Ji Jie had no choice but to nod and say: "Okay, I agree. Put down the knife quickly. Where did you find the dagger? Girls shouldn't play with such dangerous things!"
Chen Yao obediently put away the dagger and said, "Thank you, Your Highness, for your support!"
Xiong Kui took the girls on the road. Ji Jie looked up at the bright sky and said, "Let's wash up first, then leave here and find a place to have a good rest. I'm really sleepy after not sleeping all night!" "
"Yes, Your Highness!" Chen Yao nodded obediently and said, "I'll get you some water! That...basin...and the bucket..."
Ji Jie couldn't help laughing. During the process of burying the body at night, he already knew that Chen Yao was a young lady from a wealthy family. A young lady insisted on being a maid for me, so she was in a hurry!
"I have it here!"
When Chen Yao turned around, Ji Jie was holding a copper basin in one hand and a bucket in the other. He smiled and said: "I'll wait for you, Miss Chen, just tell me where the well is... You can't even I don’t even know where the well is…”
Although her face was covered with black dirt, Ji Jie could still clearly see that Chen Yao's ears were red, and her face must have been very red as well, so she whispered: "There is one in my yard!"
The Chen family's mansion was not completely burned down. Perhaps it was due to the sentiment of pity and pity that the one-eyed dragon did not let anyone burn down Chen Yao's boudoir.
Ji Jie successfully found a well, and he was naturally responsible for fetching water. In his own words, as a grown man, I can't just watch a woman work.
Pouring the water into the copper basin, Ji Jie smiled and made a gesture of invitation and said: "Ladies first!"
"ah?"
Obviously, Chen Yao was not used to Ji Jie's courtesy. Women had no status during the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period.
"Wash it quickly, you don't want my help, do you?" Ji Jie said with a smile.
"No, no, no, I'll do it myself!" Chen Yao picked up the copper basin and walked to her room.
Tsk tsk, we ladies are very particular about it.
Ji Jie took out the second copper basin from the Sumeru ring, poured water into it and threw it into the towel. He wiped it randomly a few times and then it was done. He took out the toothbrush and the toothpaste he prepared. He couldn't brush his teeth carelessly.
Not only did Ji Jie demand this of himself, he also promoted tooth brushing throughout the Zhou Dynasty, and the army even enforced it.
"Little girl... get up early, hold up your pants and go to the latrine..." Ji Jie hummed an unhealthy tune while brushing his teeth, foam flying everywhere.
In general, the toothpaste he prepared was very successful. At least on the surface, it was no different from modern toothpaste. Zhao Qian also asked Zhao Qian to add several herbs that are beneficial to dental health, which not only cleans and strengthens teeth, but also fundamentally improves toothpaste. Prevent tooth decay from occurring.
"Wow..." The door opened.
He saw a stunning beauty walking out with light steps. Ji Jie was stunned. Was this the dirty little girl just now? It was impossible. How could she be so beautiful?
He has a typical melon face, excellent temperament, slender eyebrows, and a pair of beautiful watery eyes, which is very heart-warming. He has a small cherry mouth under the straight bridge of his nose, flaming red lips, and a pointed chin.
The newborn sunshine was shining gently on her face, outlining her flawless features. Ji Jie could clearly see the layer of water mist on her eyelashes, and even the fluff behind her ears. It was clear that the March breeze was blowing, and the silky long hair was slightly floating.
Chen Yao changed into a neat outfit. It was a goose-yellow dress. Her snow-white neck was exposed. Underneath was her towering chest and voluptuous waist. Her two weak, boneless hands were folded at the waist. , the legs are hidden in the skirt, but you can tell from the distance from the belt to the ground that they are definitely two perfect long legs, wearing golden boots.
No wonder the one-eyed dragon had a reluctant expression last night when he said he was willing to trade them for his own life. It turns out there are such beautiful girls in there! Ji Jie thought to himself, if it were me, I wouldn’t do it even if I risked my life. Give such a beauty to someone else!
Chen Yao smiled sweetly, and suddenly she was filled with beauty, and even the flowers blooming in the yard were eclipsed.
Seeing Ji Jie looking at her without blinking, she felt a little embarrassed, and a blush slowly crept up her face.
"puff……"
Ji Jie couldn't hold it back and all the toothpaste spurted out from his mouth.
Chen Yao's expression immediately changed, she ran over with concern on her face, grabbed his hand and said, "Your Highness, what's wrong with you? Are you poisoned? Did you eat something wrong? Don't scare Yao'er! "
In Chen Yao's mind, there is only one explanation for a person foaming at the mouth, and that is poisoning.
Ji Jie didn't know whether to laugh or cry, but it felt good to be held by her little hands, soft and warm.
