Chapter 70 Meeting Xu Yu on the way

Lan Fang was still unconvinced: "What kind of unspeakable secret is this? It's just an excuse."

Seeing her nagging non-stop, Fu Danjun scolded her, "Okay, stop being unreasonable. We can still get some food."

On the other side, Xie Changsheng was meeting with the envoy from the palace.

"The ministers in the palace are doing their duty, and everything is safe and sound."

Because the envoy was a close confidant of Xie Changsheng, he believed his words: "Continue to monitor the situation after returning, especially the situation in the military camp. No abnormalities are allowed."

The messenger agreed, and before leaving, he added, "That Miss Xu is gone."

Xie Changsheng was stunned: "Gone?"

Seeing that the emperor was about to get angry, the messenger knelt down and reported: "The people monitoring Miss Xu said that she disappeared overnight."

Xie Changsheng couldn't help but slam his hands on the table and stood up: "Such a huge palace, so many guards, and they can't even keep an eye on a woman?"

The messenger lay on the ground, not daring to utter a word. Xie Changsheng suddenly frowned, "Someone must be helping her! Hurry up and tell them to search! Find her! If she's alive, we must find her. If she's dead, we must find her body!"

The several batches of grain ordered by Fu Danjun were transported back one by one by horse-drawn carriages.

The grain store we finally negotiated with was 20% cheaper than the one in Luoyang, and Fu Danjun was very happy to order 2,000 shi!

In addition, a truckload of vegetables was ordered to be shipped back to Luoyang.

But she didn't know that just after she left, the people sent by Xie Changsheng arrived at the store and also ordered 2,000 dan of grain.

The lady boss of the grain store smiled from ear to ear: "Oh, today is a good day for me. I will make a fortune."

On the way, it suddenly started to rain heavily.

The guys asked Fu Danjun if they should wait until the rain stops before leaving.

Fu Danjun refused: "No, we have to move quickly. You see, this road is paved with loess. The rain makes it even more muddy and difficult to walk on. So it's better for us to walk in the rain."

The guys were shocked by Fu Danjun’s erudition. How could such a weak woman know so much?

Fu Danjun smiled and comforted everyone: "When we get to a place with easier roads, we'll eat meat and drink wine to our heart's content. There's plenty of it!"

However, they could not move as fast as the rain.

Later, the carriage wheels really got stuck in the mud. The guys pulled them out once, but they got stuck again after just a few steps.

Fu Danjun saw the rain gradually lighten up and continued: "If it keeps falling, won't the crops get moldy?"

Lan Fang also frowned and tried to think of a solution, but nothing worked.

Everyone was worried when someone came from behind.

More than a dozen people on horseback.

The leader was a young man wearing a conical hat and a long white gown. He dismounted and asked his servants, and learned that the problem was that the wheels of the car kept getting stuck in the mud.

He smiled and told his men, "Find some bricks and stones to pave the road ahead. It will be better this way."

The guys thought what he said made sense and came to report it to Fu Danjun.

Fu Danjun hurried over and saluted: "Thank you for your kindness, sir."

The young man clasped his fists and saluted: "No, no, no!"

While the two were being polite, they were stunned when they saw each other's faces.

Fu Danjun's beauty naturally amazed the other party, and Fu Danjun was also shocked by the other party's handsome face.

If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I really wouldn't believe that there was such a handsome man in the world.

Lan Fang came over to break the silence: "Miss, I'm going to pick up stones with the guys, please be careful."

Seeing that Lan Fang was just a weak woman, the young man said with a smile, "My men can help you. You don't have to bother yourself."

Then he called his followers.

"Go and help pave the road so it will be more convenient for us to walk on our own."

The subordinate bowed and agreed: "Yes, General Song."

Fu Danjun was surprised to hear the word "general". Just when he wanted to ask General Song in detail, he had already gone away to work.

Fu Danjun had no choice but to get in the car and look out the window.

General Song is not only handsome, but also has great strength and is a good hand at work.

After everyone's efforts, the grain cart was able to continue moving forward.

General Song and his subordinates left in a hurry. Seeing that they were very busy, Fu Danjun did not bother them any further.

Otherwise, she would definitely have to get out of the car to express her gratitude.

From then on, the grain carts had a smooth journey, and they were even more unobstructed when they reached the hard ground.

Fu Danjun was covered in mud because of the rain.

When Wanyan Qi saw this, he was surprised: "Are you okay after being in this state?"

Fu Danjun smiled and nodded. "Everything is fine. The grain has been transported back smoothly. Let's put it on the market right away to compete with those high-priced grains."

Wanyan Qi was not satisfied with her brief description and asked with a smile: "Did anything interesting happen on the way? Tell me about it."

Fu Danjun paused and smiled, "I'll take a shower and eat first."

After saying that, he walked away.

Wanyan Qi seemed disappointed because he found that Fu Danjun had little to say to him.

They have been together for such a long time and are still polite to each other.

After Fu Danjun came out of the shower, he found Wanyan Qi sitting there waiting for him, so he had to tell him some of what he had seen and heard along the way.

Wanyan Qi wasn't very interested in hearing this: "I'm glad you're back safely. You must not have eaten well these past few days. I'll ask someone to buy some delicious food."

After saying that, he got up and left.

Fu Danjun sat there bored, lamenting that he would be suffocated to death if he really lived with Wanyan Qi.

Lan Fang noticed something and smiled, "Young lady is only suitable to be with a tyrant."

Fu Danjun was stunned for a moment, then blushed and laughed, "You little rotten-mouthed bastard, watch your skin!"

Lan Fang giggled even more: "Miss, you won't tear my skin off. But as an observer, I can see clearly that although the young lady and the tyrant seem to be incompatible, they actually have the best tacit understanding."

Fu Danjun burst out laughing: "I really didn't notice."

Lan Fang continued to smile and said, "The young lady will automatically give her heart to the tyrant and will always be on guard against the Wanyan envoy."

After he finished speaking, Fu Danjun fell into deep thought.

What Lan Fang said did make sense. Although she and Xie Changsheng quarreled, they had a natural tacit understanding between them.

Of course, there is a reason for this.

In her previous life, she had an emotional entanglement with Xie Changsheng and knew that he still had some feelings for her.

Wanyan Qi did not appear in the previous life and was a foreigner.

It was only natural for me to distance myself from him.

Wanyan Qi came back soon, personally carrying a tray of soup dumplings: "Dan Jun, come and eat, they are freshly cooked."

Fu Danjun just wanted to eat some soup dumplings or something like that because he kept eating dry steamed buns on the road.

So, she couldn't wait to grab one and put it in her mouth: "Wow, it's so hot!"

Wanyan Qi hurriedly said, "What's the rush? Eat slowly!"

At this moment, Fu Dandan felt that he was ten times better than Xie Changsheng.

The tyrant never cared what she ate, and when he got angry he wanted to starve her to death.

Wanyan Qi saw that Fu Danjun was enjoying his meal and said with a smile, "What else do you want to eat? Tell me and I'll make it for you tomorrow!"

Fu Danjun said without hesitation: "Braised pork, sweet and sour spare ribs, as long as it is meat, I like it."

Wanyan Qi laughed and said, "I'll make you another bowl of hot porridge. It will make you feel better after drinking it."

As expected, Fu Danjun felt refreshed after eating the soup dumplings and drinking the stomach-warming porridge.
