Chapter 460 I'm Just Going to Make You Angry

The Shadow Leader suddenly remembered what his subordinates had said not long ago.

"Sir, this isn't a scam, is it?"

He subconsciously pulled the reins: "Slow down and pay more attention to the movement in the middle."

These people are really suspicious.

He couldn't believe that such negligence would occur when Xie Jingci was personally leading the team.

The person in front stopped again.

This time, their pause seemed to be longer.

He clearly told his men to slow down, but they caught up.

The shadow leader was facing a formidable enemy: "Be careful and alert, keep some distance and go around them.

Watch your step! They're waiting for us to catch up, so there might be a trap ahead."

The group of people were on high alert. When Lu Wanyin and the others looked over, they pretended to be calm and glanced at them.

Then he quickly looked away, ears erect, and walked away.

The only sound heard at this moment was Xuan Qi pointing at Hou Yuanji and complaining impatiently.

"I told you not to come, but you refused to listen. Now you need to rest after riding for a certain distance."

"It's the horse that's tired, not you. Why don't you just enjoy yourself in the capital city, being so spoiled?"

Hou Yuanji's face flushed red from being scolded, and he lowered his head in embarrassment: "I, I also want to help my master, don't I?"

Xuan Qi looked down upon him impatiently: "Do your part.

As long as you are not being a burden here, you have already made a contribution.

Why did you have to follow me? I think you want to vent your anger for that bastard official."

Next to him, Zhiyu was holding Xie Jingci's neck, and the crisp voice of a little baby floated clearly into the ears of the shadows.

"Daddy, this person is so weak, not even as good as Xiao Zhiyu."

The shadow leader led his men away for a long distance.

After keeping some distance, I checked the surroundings carefully and found no ambush or trap at all.

He breathed a sigh of relief: "It turns out it wasn't a conspiracy, it was just Hou Yuanji dragging me down."

The others also relaxed and couldn't help but laugh at him: "That boy is such a loser. He's so tired from just riding a horse."

"He is indeed a playboy in the capital who lives a life of idleness and waits for death."

"Before, I was able to become the leader of the Imperial Guard under His Majesty, and now I can become a general under Xie Jingci.

Such a loser, yet he always manages to get something for nothing."

"Shut up."

The shadow leader said gloomily, “Send out another signal and tell everyone to hurry up.

At this speed, what's the point of talking about revenge?

Do I have to be played around by those people like this forever?"

Even if this is not a trap, I can still hear the sarcasm and ridicule from the people in front of me.

We also have to watch Hou Yuanji, that traitorous beast, living a happy life following his new master.

He felt angry.

Seeing that he was really angry, the man in the shadows quickly lowered his head and said, "Yes, sir."

It's no wonder they were so easily led away, mainly because in their minds -

Whether it is Xie Jingci or Lu Wanyin, unless there are special circumstances, they have enough ability to deal with their own people.

There's no need to go through so much trouble.

They don't deserve it.

This thought made them even more depressed.

On the other side, seeing the group of people walking away, Hou Yuanji immediately ran to Lu Wanyin to take credit.

"Boss, I acted pretty well, didn't you see? Those guys' faces were almost blue."

He proudly swung the torn belt on his clothes and said, “These people from Shadow have always looked down on me.

Every time he brought the emperor's oral order, he was arrogant.

I'm the commander of the Royal Guards, and they look at me like a dog."

How is it now?

They hid everywhere, and Hou Yuanji became more prosperous.

Xuan Qi glanced at him and said, "You have a clear idea of ​​your own position."

Xuan Qi looked down on him and stuffed another large piece of barbecue into his hand.

In the past, he would not hesitate for a moment if he was asked to cut Hou Yuanji into pieces.

But now, even though he was scolding her all the way, she could still smile and not care at all.

Xuan Qi felt a little bit reluctant.

"Eat more, eat more."

Hou Yuanji stepped back in fear.

He looked at Xuan Qi uncertainly: "You don't want to stuff me to death, do you? We agreed that we were just acting just now, don't take it too seriously."

He was a little scared because they were suddenly so nice to him.

"Okay, eat yours. Wrap up the rest and eat it on the way."

Lu Wanyin carefully tore off a little bit of shredded meat and fed it to Xunzhou: "By the way, next time you perform a play like this, don't give Zhiyu more roles. She's still young, so she shouldn't perform such a mocking role."

"Yes, yes, yes."

Hou Yuanji shrank his neck and nodded quickly.

In fact, he felt in his heart that the little princess did have some talent for acting.

Xie Jingci looked into the distance with a serious look, and then looked away for a long time.

"Send a message to Xuanwu and the others. From now on, they are to monitor the area around Hulukou at all times. It seems they just sent out another signal."

"These people can't wait any longer. They're probably pissed off by the way we've been walking them around."

Lu Wanyin wiped the oil off her hands and said, "With Shadow's speed, they will definitely arrive within two days. It's time to change our route.

I haven't been here for a long time, so I don't know what Hulukou is like now."

When mentioning that place, the soft light in Xie Jingci's eyes became brighter: "According to the information sent by Xuan Wu and the others last time, there are more living creatures in Hulukou."

The impact of the earthquake was not too great for Hulukou itself.

However, without the alkali mine, the sinkhole will remain a dangerous place for many years to come.

The ground is too deep.

Even people like Xuan Qi who are good at light work can fall into the abyss if they are not careful, let alone others.

Lu Wanyin understood: "What a pity.

The scenery of Hulukou is quite nice. If you want to choose a temporary place to stay outside the capital, there is no better place than this."

It is easy to defend and difficult to attack, and can be used to station troops and train them.

It is a place with few people and beautiful scenery.

It is very suitable for a leisurely life.

Xie Jingci saw the sigh in her eyes and thought for a moment: "Although the ground subsidence is serious, there is a way to deal with it.

Hulukou has undergone significant changes after an earthquake, with a lot of mud turned up. If they want to settle down there, they must definitely clean it up.

We can just fill it in with all the dirt and rocks we cleared, which saves manpower."

Xuan Qi was silently suppressing his laughter.

It sounds like it's true.

There are so many beautiful places in Dasheng, some of which are much better than Hulukou.

Wouldn't it be more manpower-efficient to change the location?

It's just that it's difficult for the master to refuse any request from the lady.

Even if he became emperor, it would still be the same.

Lu Wanyin's eyes lit up: "Why didn't I think of that?"

It may be very difficult for others to fill a hole, but for her, it is just a matter of raising her hand.

She hugged Xun Zhou excitedly and said, "Actually, you don't have to fill it up. When it's almost full, just put some water in it.

Hulukou is good in every way, except for the lack of water, which is just a small stream."
