Chapter 221 Cooperation



"Let's unload everything here. Please be careful and attentive."

Xu Mo helped the Lu family move ten truckloads of potted flowers, thousands of porcelain bottles, and a truckload of jars of liquor into Luoxia Cottage.

Feng Jinyu stood by the window with his hands behind his back, looking thoughtfully at the pots of flowers and potted plants being carried in from the yard.

Li Yuanliang saw that the food on the table was no longer steaming, and hurriedly said:

"Your Highness, the princess must have been delayed and won't be back for lunch. Before she left, she told you to take your medicine and eat on time. You can't delay. Otherwise, your internal organs will recover slowly, and the princess will be worried."

Feng Jinyu turned around and glanced at the food on the table. "Okay, let's eat first. No need to wait."

Li Yuanliang raised the corner of his mouth and recommended him to be the county supervisor.

At the beginning of the afternoon, Feng Jinyu saw that Xiao Lingyu still had not returned, and couldn't help feeling a little worried, so he sent Xu Mo to look for him.

At this time, in an abandoned granary of the Xu family outside the city, Ye Feng and others were tied up and thrown into a dark corner, closely guarded by Xingyun and Xingying.

Before Ye Feng woke up and opened his eyes, he was knocked unconscious by Xingying's palm.

"Brother, could these three people be enemies of the Su family?"

Xingyun said in a deep voice, "You and I are now under Madam Su's orders. There are some things we shouldn't ask about, so please don't bother asking."

Xingying thought that Ye Feng was going to kidnap Miss Xi, and with Madam Su's temper, the three of them might not survive.

"Brother, if Madam Su wants to kill these three people, what should we do?"

Xingyun thought for a moment and said, "We'll just follow Madam Su's arrangements."

In the woods not far from the granary, Su Ningan saw Xiao Lingyu and Su Xingyi enter the granary and said to Su Ningxi and Su Ningwen:

"Third brother, sister, there are many wild fruits here that mother loves to eat. You pick fruits for mother here, and I will go over there to pick fruits. In half an hour, we will see who picks the most, okay?"

Xiao Xier looked in the direction Su Ning'an pointed, which was the granary. She just happened to see her parents entering the granary.

"Brother, then you go. Don't let Mom and Dad find out. We want to give them a surprise."

Su Ningwen suddenly grabbed Su Ningan and said, "Brother, let's go over there and pick wild fruits. What if we encounter danger?"

"Third brother, don't be afraid, your sister will protect you."

Su Ningwen looked at Su Ningxi in disbelief, looking at her determined eyes, without a trace of fear, as if she could really protect him as her brother.

The trace of worry in Su Ningwen's heart disappeared instantly.

He is the older brother, and his sister is not afraid, so how could he be afraid?

It's the brother's responsibility to protect his sister.

"Okay, then we'll pick wild fruits here."

Su Ningan smiled and said, "Don't worry, I'll ask the Xingyun brothers to come and protect you."

Su Ningxi pursed her lips and said, "No need, go pick some wild fruits."

Even if bad guys come, she will use the knockout potion to knock them down, or at worst she can summon ferocious beasts.

Su Ning'an's story about picking wild fruits was fake. His mother was very curious today, so he wanted to find out what was going on.

Xiao Lingyu looked at the portrait in his hand, gently puffed the sachet in his hand, and glanced at the three people sleeping on the ground.

"Wake them up."

Soon, Ye Feng and others were awakened by the Xingyun brothers.

"Xingyun, Xingying, you two go out first."

There are some things that the two of them cannot hear.

After today, she will go to Xu Yulan to ask for the two brothers to come over.

She felt at ease only when he became her own person.

Ye Feng opened his eyes and took a long time to adjust before he could see Xiao Lingyu and Su Xingyi clearly.

Xiao Lingyu took the initiative and asked, "Tell me, what is your hidden purpose in following us?"

Ye Feng struggled for a while, but found that he couldn't use any internal strength at all.

Su Xingyi smiled and said, "Don't bother wasting your energy. I've already destroyed your martial arts."

Su Xingyi squatted down and pinched Ye Feng's chin hard. Soon Ye Feng groaned. "Tell the truth and save yourself the pain."

Xiao Lingyu unfolded the portrait and said in a deep voice, "Why are you following us? Who is the child in this portrait? Or are you a group of beggars trying to take advantage of the children?"

Ye Feng didn't expect to meet a tough opponent. He was careless and his martial arts were actually crippled by the opponent.

"Madam, this is all a misunderstanding. We are not beggars. The child in the portrait is our young master. We got separated a few days ago, so we came all the way here to find him."

Xiao Lingyu was still quite stubborn. He looked at the other two and asked, "Is what he said true?"

"Really, this portrait is indeed of my young master."

"Yes, that's right. Please let us go, ma'am."

Su Xingyi glanced at Xiao Lingyu and said, "Xiaoyu, we still have to rush back to Huayang County to take Xi Hanxiang to Auntie. We don't have time to waste with them. Should we hand them over to the Xishui County government office?"

Xiao Lingyu nodded: "Okay, then send it to the government."

"No, ma'am."

"Ma'am, we are really not flower kids."

Xiao Lingyu looked directly at the innermost spy and said, "From your accent, you don't seem to be from Beiyi."

Upon hearing this, Ye Feng angrily glared at his subordinates, who were really capable of causing trouble but could not accomplish anything.

Ye Feng hurriedly said, "Madam, we are from Wu County. He has a big tongue and can't pronounce words clearly."

"Yes, I... I have a big... tongue and can't pronounce clearly."

Xiao Lingyu sneered, "Three years ago during the Mid-Autumn Festival, my husband and I went to Lingyun City."

Ye Feng's expression tensed, and then he heard Xiao Lingyu continue, "My husband and I have done business with Nankun. I can't be mistaken. Your accent is clearly Nankun. I urge you to tell the truth. The two countries haven't reached the day of customs clearance, and you appeared in Beiyi. I have reason to suspect that you are spies from Nankun. As a citizen of Beiyi, I will receive a large reward if I hand you over to the authorities."

"Madam, you heard wrong. We are not from Nankun. We are authentic Beiyi people."

Xiao Lingyu smiled and said, "Mid-Autumn Festival is coming soon. We will go to Lingyun City to do business with Nankun. I am a businessman. I am concerned about profitability. I don't care about the affairs of the two countries. You can sneak into Beiyi to look for people. I think your master is quite powerful. If I want to expand my business to Nankun, I must cooperate with those who have power in Nankun. As long as you tell me the real purpose of your visit to Beiyi, I will help you find the person in the painting."

Xiao Lingyu looked at the portrait and said nonchalantly, "If it's inconvenient for you to say anything, you don't have to. I won't force you. I will hand you over to the government. The government will decide whether you are from Nankun or not. Once you are in the government, your life or death will be up to fate."

"Boss." The two subordinates were extremely anxious. They couldn't enter the government office. If they did, they would die.

Ye Feng thought that even if he managed to escape now that his martial arts skills had been crippled, he would have a hard time explaining to Lord Tai.

Today, the couple not only bought fragrant dew worth 1,500 taels at Juxiang Pavilion, but also planned to cooperate with Juxiang Pavilion. It seems that they are indeed wealthy businessmen.

"Madam, you want to cooperate with the powerful businessmen in Nankun. Naturally, the powerful people in Nankun will also cooperate with the equally powerful businessmen in Beiyi."
