Chapter 159 Sir, have you changed your mind?

The men and women of the Xie family chatted about their own topics late at night.

As soon as Tu Huan came out of Zhang's dream, she immediately changed into a colorful exquisite robe that was level ten in wind and cold resistance.

She had been waiting for Zhang to fall asleep before going in to check on something, but after waiting for a while, she discovered that the women of the Xie family were talking about something late at night. They hadn't slept yet, and were gathered together to keep warm and chat.

System: [Host, you can hypnotize manually.]

Tu Huan looked at Zhang Fuqing leaning on Zhou's shoulder, and thought of her younger self in her dream. She smiled slightly and said, "Not for now. She has someone to keep her company now."

[The 10-second dreaming function is free and can be retained by the host and activated the next time you enter a dream.]

Tu Huan said, "Okay."

She had a hunch that she might really need that function in the future.

Tu Huan glanced at the time on her phone, turned around and looked back, and saw Xie Yuchuan was still sleeping soundly.

It was a rare joke: "He slept soundly today."

It’s good to sleep soundly.

Only after he had a good sleep could she guarantee the chances of success this time.

The exiled team has become more and more orderly from the chaos when they left the capital. Tu Huan watched and felt people's ability to adapt to the environment.

Even she was included.

The electric pen rotated twice on her fingertips and fell back on the electronic screen. Tu Huan slid her left fingertips, and this time she changed to a new page and reproduced the appearance of Xie Yuchuan as a child in her dream.

Soon, a portrait came into view.

Tu Huan looked at it for a while and was very satisfied. After saving it, she casually drew a portrait of Xie Shenxing, Xie Yuchuan's second uncle.

Before I knew it, everyone around me was asleep.

When she raised her head from her concentrated creation, she found that in front of the officers and soldiers' tent in the distance, Xiong Jiushan was standing there, staring in the direction of the Xie family without moving.

Tu Huan couldn't help but wonder, Xiong Jiushan has been busy all day, isn't he sleepy?

Xiong Jiushan stood in front of the tent wearing a thick coat, looking at the place where the Xie family was resting.

He slept for a while, but not deeply. He woke up in a daze. He couldn't fall asleep in the middle of the night, so he came out to get some fresh air.

My heart feels heavy, as if I am burdened with many things.

If he really thought about it carefully, he found that he didn't know why he was so panicked.

I haven't felt this restless for many years.

Deputy General Cheng Ye was also awake at this time. He had just returned from a patrol. Seeing Xiong Jiushan coming out, he quickly walked over and asked in surprise, "Why don't you sleep a little longer, sir?"

Xiong Jiushan glanced at him, collected his scattered thoughts, and asked, "Is everything okay?"

"It's okay!" Cheng Ye smiled. "But the caravan of the Min family passed by, and the steward gave you some wine to ward off the cold."

As he spoke, he raised the wine bag in his hand.

Xiong Jiushan nodded.

Seeing that he was worried, Cheng Ye handed the thing in his hand to the soldier behind him and left it with Xiong Jiushan.

"Is your Excellency worried?"

Xiong Jiushan shook his head, "It's just a trivial matter."

Cheng Ye's eyes flashed a few times, and his gaze turned to the northwest, which was the direction of the Xie family.

"Are you worried about the Xie family?"

Xiong Jiushan didn't say anything, just narrowed his eyes slightly, with a hint of hesitation in his expression.

Cheng Ye observed his expression, pondered for a moment, and said, "After we leave the border, how do you plan to deal with the Xie family?"

There was silence beside me.

Cheng Ye didn't ask any more questions.

After a long time, when he thought Xiong Jiushan would not answer, he heard the other party finally speak.

"Cheng Ye, do you believe in fate?"

Deputy General Cheng never expected Xiong Jiushan to say such a thing. He was stunned on the spot!

Cheng Ye had a toothache.

I thought to myself, was Lord Xiong called away by Commander Lord Wang? Maybe he was possessed by an evil spirit somewhere. After he came back, I always felt like he had suffered some kind of stimulation, which was very strange.

"Forget it." Xiong Jiushan waved his hand and changed the subject.

Bring up another thing.

"Early tomorrow morning, have the Min family's steward come to my tent and mark the dangerous spots of Panlong Ridge on the map."

"Okay, sir, I'll let you know in a moment."

Xiong Jiushan nodded, looked up at the sky, and said, "You should also rest early, as we will be on our way tomorrow."

After saying that, he turned around and went back to the tent, leaving Cheng Ye standing there watching his back, puzzled.

A sense of foreboding rose from the bottom of my heart.

My Lord, is he...thinking of changing his mind?

A chill came up from behind, and Cheng Ye's face changed slightly.

The moon was bright and cold, and under the moonlight, a group of people hurried to Langzhuang.

Ruan Peining and his servants traveled all the way for a day and finally knocked on the door of the villa outside the capital of the Ninth Prince, the Virtuous King, late at night.

The Xianwang Villa was built in Langzhuang.

Several towns in the surrounding area were granted titles by the king. As soon as Ruan Peining and his group of outsiders arrived at the town outside Langzhuang, the old wise king got the news in his villa.

When Ruan Peining and his men arrived at the gate, the palace steward was already waiting outside.

Ruan Peining dismounted and stepped forward quickly: "Your humble servant, Ruan Peining, has an urgent matter to discuss with His Royal Highness the King!"

"I have obeyed the prince's orders and have been waiting for a long time. Please follow me, sir." The palace steward invited respectfully.

Ruan Peining was surprised in his heart, but there was no expression on his face.

Follow the servants into the mansion.

That night, there was a strange phenomenon in the capital.

Undercurrents surged beneath the calm surface of the water. His Royal Highness the Wise King, who had long been too lazy to meddle in other people's affairs, stood in the corridor with his hands behind his back admiring the moon. It was a pity to waste such beautiful moonlight.

The footsteps came from far away.

"Your Highness, Lord Ruan's son, Little Lord Ruan, has arrived."

Upon seeing this, Ruan Peining stepped forward to greet the Lord.

"Long live the prince! Long live the prince! Long live the prince!"

"It's not easy to visit you so late at night. Get up."

"Thank you, Your Highness."

Ruan Peining stood up and was about to take out the letter given to him by his father Ruan Yanzhi from his arms when he was interrupted by the King of Virtue.

"It's cold outside, let's go inside and talk."

After saying this, the old wise king turned around and went back to the house.

The butler extended his hand: "Master Ruan, please."

The old wise king sat at the head.

"You came here because something happened in the capital, and your father, Ruan Weizhi, asked you to come, right?"

Ruan Peining said, "Your Highness, it was my father who sent me here."

"Bring it here."

Ruan Peining personally handed the letter from his father Ruan Yanzhi to the housekeeper.

The housekeeper said that Ruan Yuanzhi's letter was delivered to the prince.

His Royal Highness the Wise King opened the letter and read it for a while, his expression becoming increasingly gloomy.

Ruan Peining didn't dare to say anything.

The virtuous prince read it for a long time, then slammed Ruan Weizhi's letter onto the table with a slap and angrily said, "This is simply nonsense."

Ruan Peining lowered his head.

The virtuous prince paused for a moment and then asked, "Is Wang Yu in prison now?"

Ruan Peining said, "In reply to Your Majesty, Lord Wang is currently being held in the Ministry of Justice's prison."

The virtuous prince frowned and said, "He's just a supervisor of the Imperial Observatory. What influence can he have on others?"

Ruan Peining knew that these words were not meant for him.

"Your father asked you to deliver the letter. Is there anything else?" His Royal Highness the King of Virtue asked Ruan Peining who was sitting below him.

Ruan Peining said, "My father said that the prince must return to the capital to intervene in this matter."
