Chapter 312 She Guessed Wrong]
At this time, Chen Fenghe, Qin Mengyue, Xiao Yunhao, the masked man, and the team of Beirong soldiers traveled through the mountains and forests for about an incense stick of time, and finally arrived at the place where they met up with Qu Wenmin.
Qu Wenmin stood up abruptly when he saw Qin Mengyue. A flash of cold anger flashed across his eyes, but he quickly concealed it. He took two steps forward and said respectfully to the masked man, "Master, I am late. This is disrespectful to you. I didn't expect you to come here in person. Please forgive me."
After saying that, he subconsciously looked up at Qin Mengyue, but met Qin Mengyue's cold eyes.
Before meeting Qu Wenmin, Qin Mengyue actually didn't believe what Shen Fenghe said about Qu Wenmin colluding with the Beirong people. Now that he shamelessly called the Beirong people "master", it was like confirming his crime of betraying his country and surrendering to the enemy. She couldn't help but get angry and shouted:
"Qu Wenmin! I didn't expect you to be such a despicable villain! You're such a dignified General Dayu, yet you're bowing down to a Northern Rong bandit and calling him your master. You're truly disgusting!"
Her father, brother, and nephew died on the battlefield, all at the hands of the Northern Rong people. Even Xiao Yunshuo, after years of fighting, had escaped death many times.
Therefore, Qin Mengyue has no good feelings towards the Beirong soldiers!
Qu Wenmin's face turned pale, and then he clasped his fists and saluted towards Qin Mengyue, saying, "Empress..."
Halfway through his shout, he suddenly changed his tone, as if talking to himself, and whispered, "No, you are no longer the queen. You should call me Miss again. Miss, I know you don't understand my choice. But this is a long story. I will explain it to you slowly later."
Qin Mengyue wanted to curse again, but was stopped by Shen Fenghe in a low voice.
The masked man wasn't angry at being called a 'Northern Rong bandit' by Qin Mengyue. He said calmly, "The last time we had the gold mine, something went wrong. How can I trust them to handle it this time?"
Qu Wenmin immediately explained, "Master, although I was indeed negligent in my duties regarding the gold mine incident, the situation is truly bizarre and I'm afraid there may be ghosts at work..."
The man interrupted him, his tone slightly sarcastic, and said, "Let's not talk about the gold for now. I heard that you, Dayu, are very fond of gold and silver, and you even admire the belief in ghosts and gods. It seems that what you said is true..."
Chen Fenghe frowned imperceptibly and glanced at the man with cold eyes.
She found that she seemed to have been deceived by this man.
She thought the conflict between the man and Qu Wenmin was because of the gold mine incident last time.
With a wave of her hand, she collected all the refined gold and raw gold in the gold mine's warehouse into her space. But Qu Wenmin naturally couldn't keep all of it for herself.
She thought that the man entered Dayu this time in order to get the gold.
Therefore, before this, it was proposed to let men disguise themselves as exiled prisoners and work with them to transport the gold to Beirong without anyone noticing.
but……
The man's words just now made her doubt her own guess.
He said sarcastically that Dayu was very fond of gold and silver, but what he didn't say was that Beirong did not value gold and silver.
So... what men are after is not gold, but something else!
But... since she hadn't guessed correctly, why did he follow her wishes and agree with her 'plan'?
Shen Fenghe narrowed her eyes slightly.
She almost underestimated this man.
It seems that I need to be more careful later...
