Chapter 279 Five Thousand Taels



Chapter 279 Five Thousand Taels

Xie Yuyan let out a breath of frustration, shook off the blood on her hands, and cut the bear meat bit by bit.

She cut out the best parts of the meat, tied the four bear paws with the cloth strips she had just tied herself with, and tied them around herself.

She also peeled off the thick bear skin.

The extreme cold weather suit had just been torn in two places. If there was another battle and the suit was damaged, the bear skin would be the best thing for her to keep warm.

Xie Yuyan carried a lot of spoils on her back, carefully memorized her current position, and walked towards the direction where the black bear came from.

This is the black bear's territory, and no other wild animals will come here in the short term.

But after a long time, it is inevitable that some brave wild beasts will be attracted by the smell of blood.

The black bear's cave should be nearby, so if you're only staying for two nights, there shouldn't be any problem.

Watching her groping towards the direction where the black bear came from, Lu Wanyin took out his micro terminal.

The red light above, which had been flashing madly, had turned blue again.

Lu Wanyin nodded with satisfaction.

As long as you don't die, it's fine.

There are indeed no other wild animals in the black bear's territory.

It seems that Xie Yuyan will not be in danger in the short term.

Lu Wanyin yawned while hugging Wei Duan. "How rare! I had forgotten that these people's bodies have been nourished by the spiritual spring water for such a long time. Their physiques have long been extraordinary. What normal people can't do, they may not be able to do."

Strictly speaking, the group of people following her can no longer be considered normal people.

She couldn't help but yawn again, and in the howling cold wind, she put her hands into her sleeves: "This weather is perfect for sleeping in the space."

Xie Jingci had given her a lot of trouble yesterday, and she still felt a little low when she woke up.

It wouldn't be a bad idea to take advantage of this time to catch up on some sleep.

Lu Wanyin's figure instantly disappeared from the spot and entered the space.

There are many beds in the gymnasium, of all kinds.

It’s just that the tent was too small and the big bed was too conspicuous, so she never took it out.

I finally have the chance today.

Lu Wanyin picked the one that suited her best, pounced on it, and turned over comfortably: "It has to be my big bed that is more comfortable to sleep on."

She placed the micro-terminal on the bedside, turned on the reminder sound, pulled up the quilt, and fell into a deep sleep.

While Lu Wanyin was catching up on her sleep in the space, the capital was already in chaos.

In just two days, orders were issued from the palace one after another, and officials were constantly traveling on the streets of the imperial city.

Countless shops that had been in business for many years were closed down.

Most of them belong to the Wang family, and some are pawnshops and brothels in the city.

In two days, countless people were imprisoned and executed.

Wang Fugui entered the palace several times, but was stopped by the guards every time.

Hou Yuanji, who had been claiming to be sick, suddenly became energetic at this time.

He wore the armor belonging to the commander of the Imperial Guard and led Wu Fan into the palace in high spirits.

He didn't go anywhere else, just hung around the palace gate.

Just to see Wang Fugui's current miserable condition.

The more anxious and angry Wang Fugui became, the happier he was.

"Sir, please inform me that Wang Fugui of the Wang family wishes to see the Empress."

Wang Fugui was still speaking nice words to the guards guarding the palace gate.

In the past, he was a prince and was high and mighty. How could he care less about these soldiers?

Now that he is in a desperate situation, he still has to be so humble and speak nicely to two pawns.

Wang Fugui was already in a depressed mood, and when he turned around, he saw Hou Yuanji walking towards him.

I feel even worse.

He wanted to leave at that time, but the queen suddenly turned against him, catching the Wang family off guard.

Rumors had been circulating among the people at some point, saying that all the shops that had been robbed in the past two days were implicated by their Wang family.

Without money, power is of no use. The eldest son of the Wang family, who used to have connections everywhere, can't even enter the palace.

Several guards who had ignored Wang Fugui with cold faces, upon seeing Hou Yuanji coming, hurriedly saluted respectfully: "Commander-in-chief."

Hou Yuanji nodded with a smile on his face, "Okay, okay."

He looked at Hou Yuanji with dignity and made an expression that he thought was serious, but in fact the corners of his mouth were almost pulled behind his ears.

"Oh, who was it? It turned out to be Prince Wang."

Hou Yuanji said nothing, and then walked around Wang Fugui with an exaggerated expression: "Why, if you have any difficulties, just tell me, brothers. We are all influential figures in the capital. If you ask me for help, how can I not help you?"

He really wasn't talking nonsense.

Wang Fugui’s biggest difficulty now is that he wants to enter the palace and explain things to the queen.

But he originally wanted to clarify his relationship with Hou Yuanji. If he used Hou Yuanji's relationship to get involved, then there would be no point in explaining it.

Wang Fugui knew that Hou Yuanji was looking for this opportunity to show off in front of him.

He patiently responded, "I won't bother you with this matter, Master Hou. If you're interested, why not tell me the origins of those two pots?"

Because of this incident, so many problems have arisen.

If he still doesn't understand it by the end, he will die with regrets.

If I ask the reason now——

The person who could enter and leave their Wang family quietly might be the culprit of the palace theft.

The Wang family has achieved such a great success, so why are they worried that they can't solve the current problem?

Hou Yuanji was completely shocked: "Are you crazy? It's already this time, and you are still thinking about those two pots?"

He felt something in his heart.

Wang Fugui is a leader among the younger generation in Beijing.

There is a reason why he is so persistent about something.

I just don't know what he wants to do.

Seeing him lost in thought, Wang Fugui took a step back and bowed to Hou Yuanji: "If Master Hou could tell me the answer, I would be very grateful."

This gift can be said to be quite heavy.

No one of the same generation in Beijing has received such a great gift from Wang Fugui.

Several guards looked surprised.

It is said that the most talented person in the imperial city is the eldest son of the royal family.

Compared with Wang Fugui, their leader is just a playboy who is not worthy of being in public.

How come when they meet now, they have the upper hand?

Hou Yuanji's prestige in the Imperial Guard was unknowingly raised several degrees.

"If you really want to know, it's not impossible."

Hou Yuanji looked around and waved to Wang Fugui: "Come over here. Don't let others hear us."

Wang Fugui was suspicious and looked around. He saw people coming and going not far away. Even if Hou Yuanji went crazy, he would not dare to do anything to him.

Then he walked aside and said, "Please teach me, Master Hou."

When he looked up, he saw a hand stretched out in front of him.

Hou Yuanji looked at him in surprise: "Why, you're eating for free without any benefits?"

Wang Fugui thought to himself, as expected, Hou Yuanji is still the same Hou Yuanji, he hasn't changed at all.

He is greedy by nature and never misses any opportunity to make a profit.

He thought about his limited wealth: "How much benefit does the young master want?"

"Five thousand taels."

Hou Yuanji asked for it without any hesitation.

Wang Fugui's face changed immediately.

He was wrong.

Hou Yuanji has changed.

He is more ruthless than before.
