Chapter 267 The Hou Family Turns Against
As soon as Lu Wanyin appeared here, the eagles noticed her.
In the blink of an eye, a circle surrounded her.
The baby birds were especially lively, flapping their chubby little wings and fluttering into her arms.
Lu Wanyin was at a loss whether to laugh or cry, and quickly caught the two that were about to fall.
Her ability to tam animals has a fatal attraction to animals.
In addition, she is the owner of the space, so those who grew up in the space are more friendly to her.
Lu Wanyin held a bunch of little ones in her arms and found an open space to sit down.
With a wave of his hand, a pool of water appeared among the flock of eagles.
Lu Wanyin brought in the spiritual spring water and looked at the white mist that quickly gathered above it: "Drink it, drink as much as you can, it will be good for you."
She had long wanted to upgrade the Eagle Group, but was interrupted every time.
Today is just right.
The rich spiritual energy in the spiritual spring water had already made the eagles restless.
With her permission, the eagles rushed forward and formed a circle.
Lu Wanyin held a group of little eagles and watched from the side, wondering how long it would take to see any changes.
A flash of color suddenly appeared in my peripheral vision.
She looked intently at the eagle that drank water first. Its gray-black feathers were so smooth that they were slightly reflective, and each feather seemed to have a stream of light passing through it.
According to legend, the colorful black
Lu Wanyin pondered for a moment, then patted the little ones in her arms: "Go, have a drink too."
The little ones understood what she meant, spread their wings, and ran towards the pond together.
The adult eagles had almost finished drinking and gave up their places.
Lu Wanyin watched helplessly as a group of young eagles drank a few sips of the spiritual spring water, and their quills burst open one by one. Their feathers were no longer restrained and spread out one by one.
Good job.
Lu Wanyin was surprised and a little disappointed.
She waited for so long, but she didn't hear the eagle's voice.
Yes, whether it is beauty, black jade, or the cold winter, they are originally very spiritual.
Before drinking the spiritual spring water, they could almost understand what Lu Wanyin said.
It is normal that there are no eagles with particularly outstanding intelligence.
Lu Wanyin breathed a sigh of relief.
Once the spiritual spring water is completely absorbed, there should be some good changes.
Lu Wanyin came out of the space and the surroundings had become quiet.
The night-shining pearl on the top of the tent has also been covered with a black cloth.
The light dimmed and the sound of Xie Jingci's even breathing could be heard in my ears.
Lu Wanyin felt a little relieved, and quietly leaned towards Xie Jingci, yawned, and fell into a deep sleep.
After a while, Xie Jingci opened his eyes, quietly pulled up the quilt behind Lu Wanyin, hugged the person in his arms, and closed his eyes again.
The next morning.
When Lu Wanyin woke up, as usual, there was no one around her.
She simply tidied her hair, put on her cold-weather suit again, and then left the tent.
Brush, brush, brush.
Almost at the same time, several eyes fell on her.
Xie Jingci frowned as he looked at the information in his hand. When he heard the noise, he looked over and said, "Madam, come here."
He waved towards Lu Wanyin.
Lu Wanyin ignored everyone's gaze and walked forward quickly: "Where's the news?"
Wilderness or the capital?
"A letter has arrived from the capital."
Xie Jingci handed her the intelligence in his hand: "As Madam expected, Hou Yuanji was targeted as soon as he returned to the capital. The result was better than expected."
Lu Wanyin quickly glanced at the news on the paper and couldn't help laughing: "I really didn't expect it. Even I didn't expect it."
The letter was sent by Hou Yuanji last night after he returned home.
"The capital has confirmed our deaths, and our identities as merchants have been confirmed."
Xie Jingci looked relaxed. "There's just one thing I'm curious about. Since the Queen invited Wang Fugui, why didn't he use him? The Wang family and the Hou family have been at odds for years. How could they possibly pass up this opportunity to take advantage of someone's misfortune? Could there be something else going on?"
He really couldn't understand this.
With Wang Fugui's ability, if he had used all his strength last night, the Hou family would not have been able to escape unscathed.
"I know."
Lu Wanyin suppressed her laughter and pointed at the words on the letter, "For some reason, Wang Fugui has been obsessed with taking the blame on Wu Fan and has never intervened."
She reminded him with a smile, "This pot was taken from the Wang family when I went to the capital to get something. There were originally two pots of chicken soup in it."
Xie Jingci was slightly startled, then suddenly remembered something and couldn't help laughing: "So that's how it is, Madam, you have foresight."
At the beginning, Hou Yuanji was not one of us.
Lu Wanyin took away the two pots of soup that the Wang family had for a snack, left some of the soup base, and handed the two pots to Hou Yuanji.
The boy was so grateful that he burst into tears.
Originally she wanted to divert the trouble to someone else, but she never thought that it would play a role at this time.
The chess player that the queen invited had his brain shut down because of those two pots.
No matter how smart Wang Fugui was, he couldn't understand how the two missing pots could appear on Hou Yuanji, who was thousands of miles away.
"It was a pleasant surprise, a complete surprise."
Lu Wanyin's eyes flickered, and she was in a very good mood. "Wang Fugui suddenly failed yesterday, which was a real bummer to the Queen. This is an opportunity. I'm afraid that there will be a rift between the Qi Xuanhou Mansion and the Wang family."
"It's possible. The Wang family and the Qi Xuanhou Mansion didn't have a close relationship before. This time, the Queen must have made some conditions to temporarily bring the Wang family along. Now that they've lost both their wife and their troops, the Qi Xuanhou Mansion won't let this go."
Xie Jingci pointed at the end of the letter and said, "On the contrary, after this incident, it is very likely that Hou Yuanji will persuade the Hou family."
The Hou family has always supported the royal family. If Mr. Hou were to become alienated from the emperor, it would be easier for the entire Hou family to turn against the emperor.
Lu Wanyin lowered her gaze and followed his hand to the last sentence.
"The Queen has repeatedly asked about the outer passages of Fanzhou. It seems she's investigating something. I suspect it's related to you two. I don't know the reason, so please pay attention."
The queen actually took a risk and asked about the things in the tunnel in front of the emperor.
Lu Wanyin sneered and put down the letter. "It seems that the Qi Xuanhou family is really anxious. I will reply personally. Calculating the time, the big auction in Kyoto in March should be starting soon."
The more anxious they were, the happier she was.
Even want to add fuel to the fire.
While Lu Wanyin was thinking about the current situation, she was writing a letter to Hou Yuanji.
Xie Jingci watched from the side, reminding her from time to time.
He had a clearer view of the situation in the capital.
Lu Wanyin read the letter again and nodded with satisfaction.
Xie Jingci helped her roll up the letter, stuffed it into the small bamboo tube on the falcon's foot, and carefully sealed it with wax: "The Hou family is not a small family. Even if there are any deviations, there is room for redemption. There is no need to be too nervous."
"Not really nervous."
Lu Wanyin leisurely watched his slender fingers fiddling with the bamboo tube, feeling only pleasure in watching. "I just think that the affairs of the major families in the capital are really interesting."
Moreover, she likes to go with the flow.
Don't plan every step too carefully.
There are always some changes that can bring unexpected surprises.
