Chapter 46 There is a gold mine nearby, do you want to go?
The crescent moon hid behind the dark clouds, and in the already pitch-black forest, it was suddenly pitch dark.
Hou Yuanji and Xuan Qi refused to give in to each other.
Invisibly, there seemed to be a flash of fire between the two of them.
At this tense moment, a rustling sound was heard in the grass behind Xuan Qi.
They both looked at the same time.
Lu Wanyin emerged from the bushes: "Lord Hou, you're already drawing your sword after just a short while. You're even more anxious than my husband. I'm telling you, you don't have any inappropriate thoughts about me, do you?"
These casual words made Hou Yuanji even more angry.
Good job!
He was so scared that he almost died here.
Not only did neither the master nor the servant feel guilty, but they also turned the tables as soon as they appeared.
That’s great!
Hou Yuanji was about to scold, but Lu Wanyin had already passed by him with Xuan Qi and went straight to the place where they were resting.
Obviously, Lu Wanyin didn't care about his answer at all.
Hou Yuanji chased after him and asked, "Where did you go just now? Why did you take so long?"
Lu Wanyin rolled her eyes at him and said, "Master Hou, do I need to remind you that I'm a woman and you're asking me about even the smallest things like going to the toilet? Do you have any bottom line?"
Coincidentally, a group of escorts and guards who came to support happened to hear these words.
Everyone looked at Hou Yuanji with strange eyes.
No bottom line!
There's no bottom line!
Hou Yuanji knew without them saying anything that this was a big misunderstanding.
"No, listen to my explanation!"
Xuan Qi said coldly, "That's unnecessary. Lord Hou is even capable of raping women, which shows he has no bottom line."
Ever since he saw the little girl crying after being bullied in the orchard, he has been particularly disgusted by this kind of thing.
Moreover, if it weren't for their protection, given the appearance of our young lady, she would have been bullied by Hou Yuanji long ago.
The more I thought about Xuan Qi, the angrier I got.
But Hou Yuanji would not feel guilty because of Xuan Qi's ridicule.
He would only feel that he was provoked by a lowly prisoner.
Hou Yuanji was indeed a bit of a playboy, but he only visited brothels.
He would never do something like raping a little girl (his father wouldn't allow it).
However, even so, he didn't need to explain to the group of people in front of him.
Thinking of this, Hou Yuanji kicked the escort in anger.
"Let me explain to you how dare you step on my head? Have you thought clearly about how you want to die..."
A group of escorts came to rescue with good intentions, but they were beaten and fled without saying a word.
I feel so miserable inside.
Wu Fan's butt was about to be kicked to pieces, so he simply hid in the bushes.
He raised his eyes and looked at the guards who came with them.
In just a moment, the guards had already reached the edge of the woods.
The light from the campfire shone on them, allowing Wu Fan to clearly see that Lu Wanyin was distributing pears to them.
Comparing the two, the difference is immediately apparent.
When Lu Wanyin saw Xie Jingci, she ran over with brisk steps and asked, "Do you want to eat pears, apples, or persimmons?"
Xie Jingci bowed his head.
Seeing her looking up at him with a smile on her face, his heart finally settled down.
He shifted his gaze to her arms.
The large yellow leaves are filled with various juicy fruits.
Each one is surprisingly plump and doesn't look like a wild fruit.
Instead, it looks like it was carefully planted by someone.
Xie Jingci suddenly fell into deep thought.
Judging from what Lu Wanyin heard about Manager Zhang's crimes, she would definitely not let him go easily.
so.
He had reason to suspect that Lu Wanyin picked these fruits from Manager Zhang's orchard.
But the problem was that after an afternoon of trekking, they were already far away from the orchard.
It was only half an hour since she had gone to leave with an excuse.
There wasn't even enough time to get back to the orchard.
Intellectually, Xie Jingci knew that his idea was absurd.
But he just inexplicably felt that Lu Wanyin had this ability.
After waiting for a long time without receiving a response, Lu Wanyin simply made the decision for Xie Jingci.
She handed the pear over: "Here, it has been washed before, take a bite and try it."
Xie Jingci obediently lowered his head and took a bite.
She asked expectantly, "Is it sweet?"
He swallowed his mouthful of juice: "Sweet."
Hearing this, Lu Wanyin smiled with satisfaction.
He turned around and distributed the remaining fruits to Madam Xie, Uncle Xu, Liuying and others.
Looking at her grandson, whose eyes were always on her granddaughter-in-law, Mrs. Xie felt relieved.
Xie Jingci is a child with a miserable life. Now that she has Lu Wanyin by her side, it can be considered a gift from God to her.
After the old lady joked a few times, she led everyone away, leaving the two of them alone.
In the campfire, the firewood crackled and splashed a few sparks.
There was a blazing fire in Xie Jingci's dark eyes, and his heartbeat was getting faster and faster.
He looked at the young lady in front of him who was chewing a pear with relish and asked a somewhat bold question.
"Three days before you left the capital... the day you were arrested and imprisoned, the imperial palace and some corrupt officials in the capital were robbed. In the blink of an eye, all their wealth was looted."
He pursed his lips and asked without hesitation: "Did you do this?"
Lu Wanyin paused and turned her head to look back at Xie Jingci.
In the light of the fire, she could clearly see the horror on his face.
As far as she was concerned, he already knew a lot of her secrets.
One more doesn't matter.
However, both the spiritual spring and the ability to tame beasts are too extraordinary.
She wasn't sure if he could still bear to tell him that she could take everything in an instant.
After thinking for a while, Lu Wanyin did not give a direct answer: "It's just some corrupt officials. Tell me which other corrupt officials have not been robbed. Maybe God has robbed them too."
Perhaps because he was too shocked, Xie Jingci was stunned for a moment.
But at this moment, Lu Wanyin's heart was lifted.
In ancient times, people with special powers were either revered as gods or burned to death as monsters.
She didn't think anyone could endanger her life.
However, she was not willing to see Xie Jingci looking at her strangely.
"There is a gold mine nearby, do you want to go?"
When Lu Wanyin suddenly heard Xie Jingci's excited voice, she thought she had misheard.
"What did you say"
Xie Jingci is usually aloof and reserved, but at this moment he seemed somewhat happy.
From the moment the spiritual spring water healed his serious injury.
He should know that his wife is a fairy from heaven.
No matter how many miraculous things happened to her, they should never surprise him.
Xie Jingci suppressed his excitement and repeated, "There is a gold mine nearby. I discovered it and have already handed it over to the court. Do you want to take it away?"
Gold mine!
Lu Wanyin's eyes flashed with a blazing light: "When are we going?"
Xie Jingci smiled and said, "Tonight."
"good!"
Lu Wanyin responded readily.
Not a silver mine!
Not a copper mine!
It's a gold mine!
Lu Wanyin felt that she would not be able to sleep tonight.
Feeling happy, she fed Xie Jingci another big mouthful of pear: "This is your reward! If you have such good things in the future, be sure to tell me."
Xie Jingci was touched by the sweetness of the pear and nodded in agreement.
Not far away, Hou Yuanji came out of the woods.
Watching them getting along from afar, he felt something was wrong.
But I can’t put it into words.
