Chapter 54 "Fishing"



After washing up, Ning Xi'er ran to the crabapple and snow-covered trees to pick wild vegetables together.

Upon seeing the herbs, he also took advantage of the two's inattention and casually stored them in his spatial storage.

When I was first exiled, I could clearly feel the wariness of the people in the Prince's Mansion and the Duke of Protectorate's Mansion. Even when I took things out of my spatial storage, they were very careful and pretended to take them out of a bundle.

That day in Changxing County, due to the urgency of the situation, I didn't want to anger the county magistrate and allow him to pursue me relentlessly...

Therefore, they did not empty the county magistrate's office, nor did they have extra time to empty the streets and alleys.

Next, I still need to stock up on more things to fill up the storage space...

In her previous life, the original owner was rescued by her scumbag father on the day of her exile and had no concept of the situation in the wasteland.

However, judging from the guards' conversation, it seemed to be an even harsher place than they had imagined. Ning Xi'er felt it necessary to consult with Zheng Ye, Eunuch Xu, and others first...

He purchased supplies to ensure that even without Xie Zhun's help, he could take care of the original owner's mother, brother's family, and the family of his grandfather, Shen Xiang, whom he would later seek refuge with.

After much dawdling, lunch was finally ready.

After the servants delivered the food to their masters' carriages, Xuan Dian came over to report that Xie Zhun had invited Ning Xi'er to dine in his carriage.

Anyway, I've treated Xie Zhun, and he's seen everything he should and shouldn't have...

Even though everyone knew that Xie Zhun had given Ning Xi'er a divorce agreement, the two were in close contact every day, and there was no longer any need to avoid suspicion.

Hearing Xuan Dian's words clearly, Ning Xi'er's eyes filled with suspicion. She wondered if Xuan Lei or Xuan Dian had reported Xie Zhun's movements, as she had instructed them to do so, and that he was deliberately covering for her...

This gives criminals an opportunity to work together to uncover deeply entrenched spies.

Ning Xi'er thought about it and realized that she had put herself in danger by helping Xie Zhun with his treatment.

Even if uncovering the spy is to protect herself, more importantly, it's also to protect Xie Zhun...

Thinking about it this way, the gratitude I had just felt vanished instantly.

Having spent several days together in close proximity, Ning Xi'er no longer felt awkward facing Xie Zhun.

Xie Zhun leaned against a soft cushion, with a small table in front of him, and ate quietly.

Seeing that Ning Xi'er didn't move, he raised his head slightly, "Don't you like it?"

Actually, Ning Xi'er wasn't trying to cause trouble; it's just that she and her servants had just finished eating alone and weren't hungry.

Just as Ning Xi'er was about to explain, Xie Zhun added, "Tell Eunuch Xu what you like to eat, and try to buy it for you when purchasing supplies in the future..."

Ning Xi'er swallowed her words of explanation and nodded in gratitude.

Xie Zhun seemed to have a poor appetite, and after only a few bites, he put down his chopsticks.

Are you feeling unwell?

Ning Xi'er asked with concern, then took out a water pouch filled with spiritual spring liquid from her sleeve and handed it to Xie Zhun.

Xie Zhun glanced almost imperceptibly at the water pouch, took it casually, and drank a few mouthfuls.

He had noticed before that every time he drank the water Ning Xi'er gave him, he would feel much more comfortable, but the water he poured out was clearly water in texture.

Even Xuan Lei and Xuan Dian followed Ning Xi'er several times, watching her fetch water just like everyone else...

Xie Zhun and his guards were completely baffled.

Xie Zhun's eyes flickered, but he said nothing. Ning Xi'er suddenly asked with a smile, "Isn't my water better than yours?"

Xie Zhun looked at Ning Xi'er, waiting for her answer.

"I added some blood-activating and nerve-relief powder to the water. It's colorless and odorless, but it can strengthen the body and accelerate the healing of the injured..."

Xie Zhun smiled faintly and nodded slightly.

"Tell me..." Xie Zhun changed the subject, "How do you plan to catch the spies?"

really......

Ning Xi'er did not hide anything and revealed the method in detail.

Just then, Eunuch Xu came in to collect the tableware and was amazed when he heard what he heard.

He clapped to show his respect, but felt even more regretful.

Xie Zhun was puzzled by Eunuch Xu's resentful gaze and raised an eyebrow to look at him.

"Your Highness, is there anything we can do for you?"

Eunuch Xu earnestly said that he was now completely Ning Xi'er's family.

Ning Xi'er smiled and said, "We don't need to do anything, we can just wait for it to get dark..."

As for the criminals revealing their true forms and the subsequent arrests, she didn't need to give any further instructions...

The purchased horses and carriages have been distributed to You Yong according to the number of people, and he is free to allocate them as he sees fit.

As for other food ingredients and daily necessities, Eunuch Xu had a preliminary idea, but after thinking about it, he still came over to ask Xie for his opinion.

Although Eunuch Xu was efficient in his work, Xie Zhun was always meticulous in his planning and more thorough in his considerations.

Ning Xi'er was still in Xie Zhun's car, and he made no attempt to hide it.
