Shen Hao's study is the most important place in the family. Even the housekeeper Hu Tian will not come in easily. On weekdays, Xia Nu is responsible for cleaning and organizing the study. Sometimes Yu Qiao and Chu Linxiang will also help. The rest of the people, including Shen Hao's personal bodyguards, are not allowed to step foot here without permission.
In fact, the rules in the study room symbolize the authority of the family head more than the actual meaning. Because there are not many confidential things stored in Shen Hao's study, he prefers to carry his secrets in a storage bag on his body, or simply put them in a secret room at home instead of the study.
Usually the people who can be called into Shen Hao's study are chatting with Shen Hao about official business. For example, Wang Jian and Wang Yiming visit Shen Mansion from time to time. If it's just a visit, Shen Hao prefers to entertain guests in the pavilion on the backyard pond, or drink tea in the main room.
It was the first time for Ning Ziyi to enter Shen Hao's study. She looked around carefully and quickly before standing by without daring to say a word.
This study was different from the ones she had seen elsewhere. It didn't even look like a study. Because there are very few "books" here and the layout is simple, it looks like a quiet room.
At this time, Shen Hao, who was sitting on the chair opposite, took a few sips of tea and pointed to the chair next to him to indicate to Ning Ziyi to sit down and talk.
"Although you are at home these days, you should have received some news from outside, right? I heard that your two personal maids have been a little anxious recently?"
Ning Ziyi naturally has her own news channels. The two maids beside her are also from the Yueying Tower in the past, and are responsible for delivering news, somewhat like Xiaoqin and Xiaorong who were around Chu Linxiang in the past. It wasn't just Ning Ziyi who was panicking the most, her two personal maids were also in panic all day long.
You must know that Ning Ziyi has already taken the identity of the Black Flag Camp secret agent, and has a guarantee and a way out, but where are the two maids? Now they are still living as agents of Yueying Tower. God knows in a few days, will they be killed like their companions in Yueying Tower?
If they had not known that they could not escape, these two maids would never have wanted to stay in Shen's mansion.
"Sir, I would like to tell you that they are just low-ranking little characters. They have been with my subordinates for many years and are very capable in all aspects. Do you think you can maintain the status quo? This will also make it easier for you to arrange tasks in the future." Ning said this. Ziyi's heart beat violently. Today is different from the past. She is facing someone who can control her life and death. Naturally, she will feel a pressure that makes her breathless.
What's more, her own rice porridge has not been cooled yet, and now she is shamelessly taking the risk to ask for orders from her two maids. This is somewhat like "pushing her nose on her face", so it is natural to be anxious.
Shen Hao continued: "You still look nervous?"
"I don't dare." Ning Ziyi didn't dare to reveal her inner thoughts. The reputation she heard about Shen Hao outside was not "kind", but a bloody and vicious reputation. She didn't know that the man opposite her was smiling but not smiling. What does the appearance mean? So just wait and hear what happens next.
Shen Hao could see the other party's embarrassment, and was not surprised. He had seen this expression too many times. Except for people at home and his superiors, everyone who saw him now had such an uneasy look.
Am I so unpopular now?
Although I understand in my heart, I feel that others are trembling more and more as if they have seen a ghost when they see me, and they always feel awkward. Shaking his head, he calmed down. Shen Hao called Ning Ziyi over today just to send him away. Staying at home all the time was not an option. This made Shen Hao's previous group fights not always so smooth. Chu Linxiang and Yu Qiao both held back their strength, saying they were worried that Ning Ziyi would laugh at them if they couldn't get out of bed. It directly made it difficult for Shen Hao to enjoy himself.
In addition, Ning Ziyi's identity used to be considered a top intelligence expert in the Yueying Tower. Now that the storm in the Yueying Tower has passed, if nothing happens to her, she will be whitewashed, which will be more conducive to collecting intelligence in various high-end situations in the future. It is also valuable for flag camps.
"Your matter has come to an end here, and your identity has been registered in the Black Flag Camp, so you can go back to your old life, continue to be a master of your piano skills, and continue to accept the wishes of everyone in the Jingjiu Dynasty. The pursuit of pleasure seekers.”
Ning Ziyi's heart trembled when she heard this. She understood that she really couldn't be as carefree as Chu Linxiang. She no longer had the Yueying Tower logo on her body, but now it was replaced by the Black Flag Camp. She also couldn't help herself, but she was hiding temporarily. It’s just a tribulation.
So Ning Ziyi nodded, probably knowing that he could no longer stay in Shen Mansion. And her destination has been planned, which is to "return to her original life."
Shen Hao then handed over another token and said, "Someone will contact you after you go back this time. They will come to you with this sign. They will arrange specific matters for you then.
As for your two maids, you can keep them with you. But they will not have the identity of the Black Flag Camp, and they are guilty. If I follow your instructions, I can live in peace. If I have second thoughts, I will inevitably move my head. See what I mean? "
Ning Ziyi quickly stood up and cupped her hands and said: "My subordinates must keep a close eye on the two of them and will not let them make mistakes."
It was a blessing to be able to save the lives of his two personal maids, and Ning Ziyi didn't want anything else. In this way, she could be considered a success when she came to Fengli City to ask for help this time. Although it didn't solve all her problems, at least she survived, right?
After putting away the token handed over by Shen Hao, Ning Ziyi did not dare to stay any longer. After saluting, he said goodbye and left. Then he went back to his guest room to pack his things. The two maids relaxed their sad faces after learning that their lives had been saved. Unlike Ning Ziyi, they didn't have much thought in the beginning. They just hoped to save their lives. Now it was enough to make them ecstatic. As for what used to be Yueying Tower and is now Black Flag Camp, what does it matter?
Early the next morning, when faced with Ning Ziyi's farewell, Yu Qiao and Chu Linxiang were not surprised, and they did not overly try to persuade them to stay. After a few polite words, they asked Hu Tian to take out some gifts that had been prepared and put them into two bags. In the storage bag carried by the maid. Then he personally sent Ning Ziyi to the teleportation circle, and then said goodbye reluctantly for a while before sending him off.
After Shen Hao, who stayed up all night at home, settled the matter with Ning Ziyi, he refined the jade slip of the Beast Controlling School with an animal head and a fish tail in the study. The massive information inside entered his consciousness like a spring. There were many things in the sea that could be said to subvert his inherent understanding of practice.
The contents of the jade slips also confirmed Shen Hao's previous guess. The beast-controlling school should indeed be classified as a branch of the evil monks' practice system.
In addition, Shen Hao also learned about a name he had seen at the beginning of this article...
