Chapter 236 Asking the Mistress to Take Me In

After dinner, Cheng Yuheng went out to do some errands. Yun Duo knew that she would come to see him when he came back, so she lay on the bed with her clothes on, waiting for him to come back.

Just when I was drowsy, Cheng Yuheng came back. There were many people in the inn, so he jumped through the window and entered the house.

"You're back. Why are you so late? I was about to fall asleep." Yun Duo sat up and rubbed her eyes with her hands.

"Something delayed me. Duo'er, let me take you somewhere."

Cheng Yuheng used Qinggong to bring Yun Duo to the granary of Dongzhou Prefecture, "Our people are guarding here now, you put all the food in the space."

Yun Duo didn't ask anything. After collecting all the food, Cheng Yuheng took Yun Duo to a courtyard in the east city, where civilians lived.

From the outside the yard looks ordinary and nothing special.

Cheng Yuheng used his Qinggong skills to smoothly jump over the courtyard wall with Yun Duo and landed lightly in the middle of the courtyard.

Seeing the two men, the five men in black knelt on one leg in front of them and saluted respectfully with their fists clasped.

"Subordinate Tianjiu"

"The clouds rise, the rain falls, the dew condenses, and the frost turns into snow."

“Greetings to the Master, Greetings to the Mistress.

Cheng Yuheng looked at the five people and was quite satisfied with their performance, and introduced them to Yun Duo: "Tian Jiu is the leader of the Dongzhou Mansion of the Shadow Pavilion.

I have already mentioned Yun Teng, Zhi Yu, Lu Jie and Wei Shuang to you before. I specially selected them for you. Let them serve you. If they are idle and become an eyesore, let them be secret guards. "

Yun Duo looked at the two women in black kneeling below and said weakly, "Can I refuse?"

Cheng Yuheng held Yun Duo's hand and coaxed her softly, "Duo'er, be obedient. They are the people carefully trained by Disha Hall for their mistress. Their skills are not inferior to Qiushou and others. I feel more at ease with them by your side."

He looked at Yun Duo with her eyes lowered, feeling somewhat unhappy, so he said carefully, "Don't worry, Duo'er, since they have been given to you, they are yours. From now on, they will only obey your orders. If anyone dares to disobey, you can deal with them at your will."

The three of them listened to their master, who was always cold and serious, whispering softly to the woman in front of them. They couldn't help but widen their eyes, with expressions of surprise and disbelief on their faces.

The masters they had met before were all decisive and murderous, cold and arrogant and difficult to approach. They had never thought that the master would have such a gentle side.

When they heard the concern and love in their master's words, they understood the important position this woman held in their master's heart. They thought to themselves that they should be more respectful to their mistress in the future.

They knew their master's character very well. If they dared to neglect their mistress, they might not see the sun the next day.

The four of them were thankful that they had shown respect to the woman from the beginning and had not treated her with disrespect because she looked young.

"Then can I just have these two? I really don't like having too many people around me."

When Yun Teng and the other three heard Yun Duo say that they only needed two people, their faces turned pale instantly and expressions of fear appeared on their faces.

They knew that if they were rejected by their master, they would have to go back to that horrible training camp to be trained again. It was simply hell on earth, and they knew the hardship and pain of it all, having experienced it once before.

After finally passing the rigorous assessment and emerging from numerous difficulties, they now face the possibility of returning to that horrible place again. Thinking of this, their bodies couldn't help but tremble.

"We are willing to serve the mistress and obey her orders without hesitation. Please keep us sisters!" After Yun Teng said this, he knelt on his knees without hesitation.

She folded her hands and pressed them to the ground, then lowered her head deeply, pressing it tightly on her hands, and bowed deeply to the clouds with great piety.

The other three followed suit, "Please let the mistress take us in!"

"Tianjiu, step back, and the four of you stay." Cheng Yuheng ordered.

"Yes"

Yun Duo looked at the four people kneeling on the ground, forcibly suppressing their fear, and felt sorry for them. She asked Cheng Yuheng, "If I don't want it, what will be the fate of these four people?"

"The secret guards who received the order but failed to be recognized by their masters will return to the base for retraining and wait for reassignment. However, they will have to complete double the training to pass, which is also a punishment for being dismissed."

"What if it's not their fault?"

"It's wrong if the master doesn't like it."

Yun Duo looked at the girls kneeling on the ground, who looked to be about seventeen or eighteen years old. She couldn't bear to see them being punished because of her. Besides, with Cheng Yuheng's stubborn character, if he didn't punish these four this time, he might give her eight next time.

"Then stay! But we agreed that four are enough. Don't send any more, okay?"

Cheng Yuheng's mouth curled up, and he knew that his little girl was the softest. He did not answer that she was not kind, but said to the four people: "Come here to pay homage to your young lady. From now on, you will only have your young lady as your master, and you only need to listen to her orders. Do you understand?"

"My subordinate understands!"

The master did not ask them to pay respect to the mistress this time, but said Miss, which proved that they only needed to listen to Miss in the future. It was their good fortune to be able to follow the future mistress, and they must serve the mistress wholeheartedly in the future.

The four of them were happy to be chosen and were relieved of their anxiety at the moment. They saluted happily. "Your servant greets the young lady. May the young lady be well!"

Yun Teng took out four indentures and handed them to Yun Duo, "Miss, these are the indentures of four slaves. Please keep them." Yun Duo took the four indentures and put them into the space with her sleeves.

Seeing that his master had accepted the contract of selling his body, Yun Teng said respectfully, "Miss, please give us names."

"You all have nice names, just call you like that!"

Yun Teng asked with difficulty, "Master, will my name offend you?" Her master's name was Yun Duo, and if she named her Yun Teng and the master was averse to it or was criticized by someone in the future, it would cause trouble for the master, so she needed to remind her master.

Yun Duo thought for a moment and said, "Since you will follow me in the future, I will give you the surname Yun, Yun Teng, Yun Yu, Yun Lu, Yun Shuang."

Yun Teng lowered his body a little more with tears in his eyes. "It is an honor for a servant to be given a surname by the master. We thank the master for his kindness. We will serve the master wholeheartedly in the future, even if it means death!"

The other three also had tears in their eyes and said in unison, "We servants thank the master for his kindness."

Yun Duo thought to herself that these four cold and arrogant girls were moved to tears when she gave them a surname. The title changed from Miss to Master.

"Everyone, get up."

"Thank you, Master!"

The four stood up and Yun Duo observed them carefully. They were about 17 or 18 years old, wearing black tights that fit their body curves and showed off their perfect figures. Their eyes were very sharp. There was a firm light in their eyes. It might be related to years of training. They exuded a cold aura. They looked pretty and inconspicuous, which made people feel comfortable.

Yun Duo didn't feel uncomfortable having four maids with great martial arts skills. She thought to herself that they could be like her subordinates in her previous life.

At this time, Tianjiu stepped aside and said respectfully, "Master, you and the mistress should go to the inner room to rest first! The room is ready."

"Lead the way!"

"Aren't we going back to the inn?"

"Go to the inner room and rest for a while. I have something else to do. I'll take you back when I'm done."
