Chapter 40: She Doesn’t Want This Blessing
After Zhou Ying left.
Yu Lingye's expression turned cold.
He had known Xie Yingmian for a short time, but he knew that Xie Yingmian was not a person who acted without purpose.
Xie Yingmian wasn't making up stories when he said there were minerals in Feiyang County.
Maybe there really is mining there.
Whether it is coal mines, oil mines or other metal mines, for the Dayu Dynasty, they are all good things that benefit the country and the people.
However, if this good thing that benefits the country and the people falls into the hands of people with bad intentions, it will be a disaster.
Yu Lingye ran his finger across the map.
Part of the mountains surrounding Feiyang County are located in Feiyang County, and part are located in other cities.
Because these mountains are deep in the mountains and covered with old forests, they are rarely visited by people and are ownerless mountains.
"Let the people from Liuguang Pavilion buy these mountains from these cities separately. Keep it secret." Yu Lingye said to Xukong.
"Yes." Someone answered from the void.
Yu Lingye felt a little tired and half closed his eyes to rest.
Two hours passed in the blink of an eye.
When Zhou Ying arrived at Danyue Courtyard, Xie Yingmian also happened to come to report.
Zhou Ying's attitude took a 180-degree turn.
Originally, Zhou Ying's eyes were full of disdain and contempt.
The look in his eyes now is very similar to the look of the big wolfhound raised in the base in the past when he saw a piece of meat bone.
The big wolf dog is Zhou Ying, and the meat bone is Xie Yingmian.
"Your Highness, you are well." Zhou Ying was afraid that his rough voice would scare Xie Yingmian, so he lowered his voice and spoke in a hushed tone.
"It's dark, and the road is difficult to walk on."
"If you don't mind, I will lead the way for you."
"Princess, please go this way."
"Princess, please slow down."
"Princess, please watch the road."
"Have you had dinner, Princess?"
Xie Yingmian moved a little further away from Zhou Ying without leaving any trace.
A tough guy spoke in a strangled voice, and she got goose bumps.
How to say it.
It was like a ferocious wolfhound suddenly put on a Barbie skirt and kept wagging its tail at her.
She really doesn't want this blessing.
Xie Yingmian walked away from Zhou Ying and ran quickly into Yu Lingye's bedroom.
Yu Lingye woke up after hearing the sound.
Seeing Xie Yingmian's chaotic footsteps, he asked, "What happened?"
Xie Yingmian saw Yu Lingye as if she had found a life-saving straw: "There's a dog!"
Yu Lingye was slightly stunned.
There are no dogs in Tanyueyuan, so it must be a dog from somewhere else that broke in.
No wonder Fu Mo said with great sorrow that the Amaterasu orchid placed on the roadside to absorb the essence of sunlight was harmed by something.
"Are you afraid of dogs?" Yu Lingye asked.
Xie Yingmian: "Of course I'm afraid."
It would be strange if she wasn't afraid if such a big and tough guy suddenly turned into a dog monster.
Yu Lingye: "Fu Mo will take care of it."
Coincidentally, Fu Mo stopped Zhou Ying's servile behavior.
Although Xie Yingmian and Yu Lingye were not talking about the same thing, they happened to collide with each other and there was no sense of incongruity.
Xie Yingmian took out the things he had made.
"As agreed, I made five kinds of poison."
Different poisons come in bottles of different colors.
"The black bottle is highly toxic. Even a tiny drop can kill. It's suitable for applying to things like swords and knives. It kills instantly upon contact with blood. Use with extreme caution."
"The blue bottle can disperse the enemy's internal energy. The stronger the enemy's internal energy, the better the effect. It can last for about two hours."
"The yellow bag contains a powder that causes severe itching. There's no antidote, and it will go away on its own in three to five days."
"The purple bag, if you sprinkle a handful, can make someone unconscious, perfect for escaping."
"The one in the green bag, if you sprinkle it, it will attract all kinds of snakes, insects, rats and ants. It's also good for escaping."
"Don't get them mixed up, especially the black bottles. Remember that."
Finished introducing the poison.
Xie Yingmian took out another white bottle.
"Here are ten antidote pills."
"Each pill you take will grant you immunity to all poisons for three days. But don't commit suicide. Detoxification pills aren't a panacea. It's best to save them for the most critical moments."
If it were two hours ago, Zhou Ying would have definitely dismissed it.
But the Zhou Ying now is no longer the Zhou Ying from two hours ago.
Zhou Ying heard about Xie Yingmian's deeds, and knew that the prince was saved by Xie Yingmian when his life was hanging by a thread, and that Xie Yingmian had cured Fu Feng and Fu Mo of the poison.
Even Xie Yingmian was able to recover Fu Feng and Fu Mo's kung fu.
Zhou Ying is a person who admires the strong extremely.
In his eyes, Xie Yingmian has transformed from a weak person to a strong person.
She is the one he admires!
"I will follow the instructions of the princess." After being taught a lesson by Fu Mo, Zhou Ying stopped being a servile boy.
He bowed respectfully, packed up the poison and antidote solemnly, and said goodbye to Yu Lingye.
Wait until Zhou Ying leaves.
Xie Yingmian quietly asked Yu Lingye: "What happened in the past two hours?"
"Why did General Zhou suddenly change his expression?"
"I'm not used to seeing a tough guy suddenly turn into a fawning wolfdog."
Yu Lingye said, "He knows that you were the one who cured Fu Feng Fu Mo's poison."
Xie Yingmian raised his eyebrows.
That’s it?
Yu Lingye: "He should also know that you can help Fu Mo and Fu Feng recover their martial arts."
"Zhou Ying, extremely admires the strong."
"He doesn't see gender, only strength and weakness. You are the strong one now."
The corners of Xie Yingmian's mouth twitched several times.
She finally understood Zhou Ying's look.
It turned out that it was not the look of a wolfdog staring at a meat bone, but admiration.
I have to say that Zhou Ying’s admiration is a bit abstract.
"What happened in Feiyang County?" After asking this question, Xie Yingmian felt a little abrupt.
"I just asked casually. It's okay if you want to tell me or not. I'm not really interested."
Yu Lingye didn't hide anything.
He said quietly, "Pei Xun and Jingyun Aoyun went to a deep mountain to look for a herb."
"They successfully found the herbs and were about to return to Shangjing when they were assassinated."
"The assassin bribed the Feiyang County Magistrate, who then turned against them, accusing Pei Xun and his men of being assassins and ordering a city-wide manhunt."
"Jingyun Aoyun was seriously injured and unable to move. Pei Xun and others are hiding in the stronghold and may be discovered at any time."
Xie Yingmian vaguely remembered that Fu Mo had mentioned that Yu Lingye had four great guards around him.
Fufeng and Fumo stayed in Danyue Courtyard, while Jingyun and Aoyun went out.
"Feiyang County has a unique terrain. The only way to leave Feiyang County is to cross the river." Yu Lingye said, "The Feiyang County Governor has heavily guarded the Feiyang River."
"Pei Xun and the others can't leave. The enemy's plan is to attack them from both inside and outside, trapping them to death."
"Therefore, I sent Zhou Ying to meet them."
Xie Yingmian poured herself a cup of tea.
She blew away the foam in the teacup and said, "No wonder you asked Zhou Ying to carry poison for self-defense."
"Since they have sent out assassins, their identities may be exposed."
"I'm afraid Zhou Ying's trip won't be peaceful."
Yu Lingye agreed with this.
Xie Yingmian asked, "What kind of rare herb did the miraculous doctor Pei Xun you mentioned pick that would be worth the other party's huge expense?"
Yu Lingye did not answer immediately.
Xie Yingmian didn't force it.
It's normal for Yu Lingye not to trust her.
Just like she didn't believe Yu Lingye either.
There is not so much sincere friendship between people, especially between strangers who have just met a few times.
It's just mutual benefit.
Just when Xie Yingmian thought Yu Lingye would not answer.
Yu Lingye gently uttered three words.
