Fu Hengyu reached out and pulled Du Wan to his room, then locked the door.
He looked at the person in front of him and asked hesitantly.
"Why did you come here suddenly? You didn't even ask me before you came. Aren't you afraid of disrupting my plans?"
"Why am I here? It's because you are not doing your best."
She sat on a chair nearby, with a look of arrogance.
"Do you know who you are talking to?"
Du Wan snorted coldly, placed the wooden sign hidden on her chest on the table, and looked at him provocatively.
"Then... do you know who you are talking to?"
He was very surprised. He didn't expect Du Wan to have such a thing.
"How did you get it?"
"You have it, so you can't have it? A man who knows the current situation is a hero. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has given you that matter for so many days, you can make some progress."
"He was seriously injured a few days ago."
"But he's not dead."
She raised her head and said, "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince said that from today on, all of you must obey my orders and do whatever I want."
"You're crazy. How can we, with so many men, be at the mercy of a woman like you? Besides, you don't know Chi Mu at all, let alone Shen Yuerong. How can you accomplish this?"
He looked down on Du Wan from the bottom of his heart, and felt that this was just her indulgence.
"Just be obedient."
He coaxed the woman in front of him as he did before, and held her in his arms.
"I know I've been busy with official duties recently. It's my fault for not taking good care of you and the children. I will definitely go back when I'm done."
"No."
Du Wan has finally come to her senses. She will no longer put all her hopes on one man.
"Your Highness believes me, but you don't. Are you questioning Your Highness?"
Fu Hengyu naturally didn't dare to say anything, "That's not what I meant."
"Then just do what you have to do and leave me alone. Otherwise, I don't know what I will do."
Only now did he notice the changes in the woman in front of him.
All his men were sent by the prince. Du Wan holds the prince's seal in his hand, so it might be difficult to deal with him.
"Okay, I'll listen to you. But I'm afraid you're exhausted after the long journey. Why don't you take a rest today and talk about it tomorrow?"
Du Wan was not afraid that he would do anything tricky, so she nodded.
"I'm really tired, I need to rest early."
The second day.
Shen Yuerong and Chi Mu both discovered something, and they sat together to discuss it.
"Why do I feel that Du Wan is the one who has the final say between the two of them?"
Shen Yuerong was a little confused. After all, he would never give in in the past.
"Could it be that... there is some truth behind this that you and I don't know?"
Shen Yuerong was indeed a little curious, but she couldn't ask directly at this moment.
"Have someone keep an eye on them. I always feel that although those assassins came after you, they never killed you. The injured parts were not vital. It seems that they just wanted to delay you so that you would not be distracted from investigating something."
"Could it be that there is some secret here that you are afraid others will find out?"
Shen Yuerong nodded and said hesitantly, "I'm afraid you may have offended them at some point, or blocked their progress, so they did this to warn you."
I can't think of any other reason.
"You and I have only been here for three or five days. Do you think I have any chance to offend him? On the contrary... they all have ulterior motives towards me."
When he thought of the flattering looks of those ministers, he felt physically nauseous.
"Speaking of which, after you were injured, those ministers only came once, and then they disappeared without a trace. I think this incident is probably related to those ministers."
"Whether there is one or not, there is no need to argue with them too much. On the contrary, you should protect yourself well."
There's always an eerie quiet before the storm.
Du Wan's appearance made people feel a little nervous, and it seemed that everything happening before them seemed to have become more complicated.
Perhaps because they were deliberately hiding, Shen Yuerong and Du Wan did not meet.
Until that day a commoner brought the matter to their attention.
"They say you are the great Lords of Heaven, I beg you, please save me."
Shen Yuerong quickly helped the old man up with a smile on her face, "Don't be afraid, tell us what happened, we will definitely take care of it for you."
The old man looked at Fu Hengyu and Du Wan who were standing behind them with some fear, not knowing whether it was intentional or not.
"them……"
He pointed at the two of them.
Du Wan looked at him calmly, with a fake smile on her face.
"Old man, everything requires evidence. Since you said this matter concerns me and my husband, why not tell us the truth and let everyone judge for themselves."
He looked at Shen Yuerong timidly, and the latter also looked encouraging.
"Just a few days ago, they came to visit us and took care of us. Now that we have such a good life, we all rely on you. They asked for some money as a package. We finally found a place to stay. I really don't want to go through this anymore. I gave them all the change I had, hoping that I could have a place to stay."
"What guarantee?"
Shen Yuerong looked at them in surprise, "What kind of trouble did you two come up with?"
Today, Chi Mu went out with several adults, leaving only the three of them in the yard.
He nodded.
"They are able to live such a peaceful life now because of us and our soldiers who risked our lives. It shouldn't be difficult for them to make some profits, right?"
"You are too ridiculous!"
Shen Yuerong looked at him, her eyes full of anger.
"All along the way, he and I have always adhered to the principle of voluntary participation. Regardless of whether they are willing to leave their homes with us, as long as they are willing to stand with us, we will do our best to lead them to a new life. But if you do this now, it will slap Chi Mu and me in the face again."
"You two are ignorant and don't know anything. If you ask about the food, you will know that with so many people eating at the same time, the compensation from Kyoto has already run out. Yesterday, they asked me to take some money from them, but we don't have any food to eat. Besides, they will spend their money in the end. They just acted as an intermediary."
"Yes, Miss Shen never asked us where the money was spent. The more she looked so angry, the more it was hard not to suspect that Miss Shen was also accepting bribes in private. She was afraid that the truth would be exposed, so she was so emotional. You can't judge a person by his appearance."
