Chapter 245 The General Has No Money

Qu Chu remembered the screams of Shensi he heard before, and asked:

"Then is it possible that he knew some secret techniques, cast a curse in his lifetime, and entangled the person who killed him?"

Daoist Qing Xu said: "This is quite possible."

When he understood what he wanted to ask, Qu Chu didn't ask any more questions.But Ning Youbei was still pestering Daoist Qingxu to ask about Xie Chong.

While talking, Qu Bingyu came over with 2000 taels of silver.

In addition to the 2000 taels of silver, Qu Bingyu also took a piece of high-quality jade.

Qu Chu signaled Qu Bingyu to give the banknotes and jade to Daoist Qingxu.

"Thank you Daoist today. If there is still something to ask for in the future, I hope the Taoist will not hesitate to help."

Although Qu Chu is a murderer, she really has no way to deal with these evil spirits.

Daoist Qingxu also wanted to form a good relationship with Qu Chu, so he would not push it away.

"As long as the general is in need, Pindao will try his best to help. Next time you don't need the general to go to the Supreme Court in person, just send someone to let you know."

The two were polite again, and Daoist Qingxu bid farewell.

Qu Chu gave a few steps away, and Daoist Qingxu asked Qu Chu to stop.Qu Chu was also not polite to him, and called the steward to see him off.

……

After sending Taoist Master Qingxu away, Qu Chu went to see He Dabao again.

He Dabao has woken up, and he seems to be in good spirits.

Here are all his own people, so Qu Chu told all the things he had just asked Daoist Qingxu about.

"I think Shensi must have cast some kind of spell in the first place to entangle the person who killed him after death. No wonder he didn't want to let him commit suicide when I asked him to kill him. He must let me kill him.

Dabao, you took the blame for me this time. "

He Dabao cut the sword at the beginning because he saw the weird smile on Shensi's face and was worried that the general would be plotted against him so he killed Shensi first.

At this moment, He Dabao is thankful that he killed Shensi, otherwise the general would have suffered so much today.

"General, you have saved my life several times. Without you, I would have been a lonely ghost somewhere. What is it to suffer this little crime for you?"

Qu Chu was not too polite to He Dabao, and only let him rest well, and let Qu Bingyu and Yanhong take good care of him.

Before leaving, Qu Chu remembered the purpose of coming here early today, and she took out the deed from her body to Yanhong: "This is your reward."

Yanhong didn't know why, so she accepted the contract.

After opening it, she quickly declined: "General, I have food and lodging in the General's Mansion, so I don't need these."

Qu Bingyu immediately understood what it was, and she stuffed the deed into Yanhong's arms, "Sister Yanhong, please accept it, otherwise I will feel uneasy."

Qu Chu didn't say much, "It's getting late, let's go."

……

After Qu Chu and Ning Youbei left, Yan Hong felt hot holding the deed.

"Bingyu, return these to the general for me!"

Qu Bingyu said:

"Sister Yanhong, Ah Chu is a person who is very clear about rewards and punishments. Everyone has made meritorious service in Nanyi this time. Sister Su and I have been awarded ranks. General He and the others have been promoted. Only you have not received anything. Ah Chu Feel ashamed of you.

If you don't accept it, it will be a waste of Ah Chu's heart, and it will make those of us who have benefited feel that we are bullying you. "

He Dabao understood what was going on from the side, and he also comforted Yanhong:

"The general is not only like this to you, she is like this to all soldiers.

In the past, when soldiers in the army retired, the generals would try their best to help them, and the families of those soldiers who died in battle could always receive comfort money no matter how many years passed. "

Yan Hong was stunned: "Isn't that a huge expense?"

"That's right," Qu Bingyu said, "Do you know what the biggest expense of the General's Mansion is? It's the pension."

Yan Hong was puzzled: "Didn't the imperial court have a pension?"

Qu Bingyu smiled silently, but He Dabao didn't have so many scruples.

"The pensions given by the imperial court are too low. Those left by the families of the dead soldiers are either elderly parents, or widows and orphans. How can the pensions given by the imperial court be enough?"

"Then the general needs a lot of money?"

"You don't have to worry about this, the army also has its own methods. But in order to make the life of the soldiers better, the general's own money has also been put into it."

He Dabao said:

"The emperor once rewarded the general with a lot of land and money. The court officials thought the general was rich, but they didn't know that the general used all the income to pay the soldiers."

Seeing that Yan Hong still refused, Qu Bingyu smiled and said:
"Sister Yanhong, you don't have to worry about Ah Chu. She is not like us, she is not interested in rouge, gouache, gold hairpin and jade ring at all, and she can't spend much money on her own."

Under the persuasion of the two, Yan Hong put away these contracts.

……

the other side

Ning Youbei took Qu Chu's hand, "Ah Chu, I never thought it would be so dangerous for you to go to Nanyi."

"Well, I didn't expect Nanyi to have such witchcraft.

I didn't believe in these ghosts before, but today I have to believe in the existence of these evil spirits.

And the other day your master Peach Blossom Immortal said that you have the imprint of the God in your blood, so there must be something very special in places we don't know about. "

Ning Youbei shook Qu Chu's hand:

"Even if there is, it doesn't have much to do with us. I didn't hear Daoist Qingxu also said that it is not so easy for the evil spirits to want the body of the master. The reason why the ghost of Shensi entangled He Dabao was because of him. Know secrets."

"Yes, these things have little to do with us."

Qu Chu responded to Ning Youbei: "If it's really that easy, I've killed so many people, why have I never been pestered?"

"Achu, I don't allow you to say that about yourself, you are a very good person."

"..."

……

**
While He Dabao was recovering, Mrs. Su visited Qu Chu once to discuss with her about the wedding date of Su Ziyi and Qu Bingyu.

Qu Chu had no objection to these, and only let Qu Bingyu make up his own mind.

In the end, Su Ziyi and Qu Bingyu's wedding date was set on December [-]th, which was only two months away.

……

**
It was Xiumu today, and the emperor sent someone to Chu Palace to let Qu Chu enter the palace.

Ning Youbei was worried that Qu Chu would go to the palace, so he followed him.

Seeing Ning Youbei, the emperor frowned and looked at his expression, and he relaxed his frown only after he realized that his complexion was fine.

"You haven't recovered yet, what are you doing running around? Worried that I will be bad for your wife?"

Ningyou North Road:

"Why would I be worried about Brother Huang? I'm worried about other people. It's not like you don't know, Ah Chu doesn't have a heart. Besides, my health is almost in good shape, and it's okay to walk slowly."

The emperor also heard about Ning Youbei's physical condition from the imperial physician, and he knew that he had almost recovered, so he was not too worried.However, the emperor did not agree with Ning Youbei's evaluation of Qu Chu.
