Chapter 5: Dare to Think



At this moment, Huo Jingxuan was getting anxious. His wife was talking to him just now, but suddenly she disappeared. How scary.

If it weren't for the scratches and bites from Leng Yue on his body, he would have thought that he had just had a wet dream last night!

Just as she was hurriedly getting dressed, Leng Yue appeared again. Before she could say anything, she was hugged by Huo Jingxuan.

"Wife! Where did you go just now?"

Leng Yue pushed away the handsome face in front of her, "You've overacted a bit, I don't believe you don't know where I've been."

Huo Jingxuan touched his nose awkwardly and asked uncertainly, "Space?"

Leng Yue nodded, "Hurry up and get up. I'll go in and wash up."

After saying this, the man disappeared again.

Huo Jingxuan was puzzled. How could he wash there?

But he could only think about it, because his wife was obviously just notifying him, not listening to his opinion.

Huo Jingxuan washed up quickly and waited in the room for a while, because his wife was not familiar with the environment in the house and couldn't find anywhere. This was not the most important thing. The most important thing was that he found that his wife didn't seem to know how to wear clothes or comb her hair.

However, come to think of it, his wife was stupid before, no, she wasn't very smart, and there was not a single maid in the mansion, so he had to do this himself.

The final result was that both of them were dressed neatly, but the hair always had its own ideas and made them both sweat. In the end, Leng Yue still came out with her hair in a bun.

I originally planned to tie my hair into a ponytail, but because I’m married, I could only make do with a bun.

While eating, Leng Yue suddenly realized a problem: maybe this mansion was too poor.

The breakfast only consisted of white porridge, steamed buns and pickles, not even flower rolls or meat dumplings.

Following the rule of not talking while eating and not talking while sleeping, Leng Yue didn't feel comfortable asking.

However, she saw that Huo Jingxuan was eating so happily, so he should eat like this normally.

After dinner, the housekeeper and the accountant who also worked as a quartermaster came to report to Leng Yue. This confirmed that Huo Jingxuan was a pauper, and the entire general's mansion had less than five thousand taels of cash.

Leng Yue was full of black lines on her forehead, and Huo Jingxuan's face was also red with embarrassment.

It turned out that the imperial court had been in arrears with military pay for two years, and Huo Jingxuan had been supporting the army and the families of the killed and wounded soldiers out of his own pocket.

But, it's like a bottomless pit that can never be filled no matter how hard you try.

This is all the cash left in the mansion now, and the mansion hasn't paid the monthly salary for a year. If it were to be paid out, there would probably be nothing left.

It seems that she is the richest person in the whole mansion now.

Leng Yue threw the account book on the table. She could earn money again if she lost it. Suddenly, she thought of a more serious matter. Leng Xiyuan and Xuanping Hou said that something was going to happen in the Huo Mansion. What was going to happen?

As a result, Huo Jingxuan actually said: "The house is going to be raided, and they are saying that I am collaborating with the enemy and betraying my country, and I am going to start a rebellion."

Leng Yue's mouth twitched slightly when she heard this, "You're collaborating with the enemy and selling out your country just for less than five thousand taels of silver. How can you have children with that little bit of silver? You can never spend it all!

Everyone knows that maintaining an army is the most expensive thing. If you want to rebel, you need the right time, the right place, and the right people. None of them can be missing, and they all require money.

"Has your old emperor taken drugs and become stupid? Is there water in his brain?"

Huo Jingxuan and his men were all trying to hold back their laughter. The guy above must have taken drugs and gone mad. He was thinking about immortality all day long and had become a god.

Now he has stopped caring about state affairs. It is said that the crown prince is the regent, but all that is missing is a formal edict of abdication.

However, the prince is not a good person either, he is the same as the dog emperor.

"Actually, he didn't completely wrong me. I did have plans to rebel, but the time is not now." Huo Jingxuan said.

After saying that, they all looked at Leng Yue nervously.

Leng Yue immediately realized that Huo Jingxuan had not hidden such a big thing from her, and he must be planning to drag her into it.

If you think about it carefully, isn't her space the biggest cheating tool?

Leng Yue patted Huo Jingxuan on the shoulder and said, "You are worthy of being my man. You have ideals. Look at your bearing. It would be a waste of talent if you don't sit in that position."

These words successfully reassured Huo Jingxuan and his men.

Leng Yue looked at Huo Jingxuan and said, "Now we are on the same boat. Do you have to tell me what your next plan is?"

When talking about this, even Huo Jingxuan sat up straight, and An Yi and An San went out to keep watch. "Our next plan is to rob the eldest prince and the crown prince, and let them fight each other and cause chaos first."

Leng Yue rubbed his hands together, "Robbery is good, it sounds exciting, let's go tonight!"

An Wu reminded Leng Yue, "Madam, aren't you being too hasty? We should plan carefully before we act. That way it will be safer."

Leng Yue disagreed, "It's better to act than to think. Besides, we have a time plan. Will others give us so much time?

Now everyone knows that our property will be confiscated, and we just lack the official document. Do you think we have enough time?"

Now everyone agreed to take action in the evening.

In private, when Huo Jingxuan and Leng Yue were alone, Leng Yue suggested, "Why don't we also raid the national treasury? The sheep are fat, and if we kill one, we'll have to run several houses."

Huo Jingxuan was drinking tea, and after hearing Leng Yue's words, he spat out a mouthful of tea.

After realizing what was happening, he doted on Leng Yue's forehead and said, "You really dare to think so!"

Leng Yue smiled brightly at him, "Not only do I dare to think, I also dare to do it!"

An Er, who was on duty on the roof, rolled down excitedly with a loud bang.

It was the first time that Leng Yue had seen such a stupid and fat secret guard. She felt strange and asked him, "What's your name?"

Huo Jingxuan kept reaching out to pull Leng Yue away, because this An Er was just as his name suggested, stupid and talking to him could make people angry to death.

But Leng Yue didn't know that the more Huo Jingxuan pulled her, the more she refused to leave.

Huo Jingxuan had already sensed that something was wrong, so he turned his back and didn't look at that idiot An Er.

As a result, as soon as I turned around, I heard An Er say, "Madam, my name is An Er."

The words were still correct up to this point, and then Leng Yue asked, "Have you been on duty on the roof?"

Then I heard An Er say, "Yes, I was standing guard on the roof when you were doing business with the general last night."

Lei De Lengyue could only laugh foolishly to ease the embarrassment.

Now she finally knew why Huo Jingxuan had been dragging her away just now.

She regretted not following!

Leng Yue quickly looked at the ground to see if there was a crack that she could crawl into.

Huo Jingxuan turned around and kicked An Er, "If you keep talking nonsense, I'll sew your mouth shut. Get out of here now."

I felt regretful in my heart. Why did I forget to chase this idiot away before doing anything last night?
