Chai Shijing had no intention of hiding the fact that he and Kang Yueran were in love with each other, and he wanted to tell everyone.
"Yes! The wolves on Biyun Mountain wanted to return to their hometown, Xiufeng Mountain in Yuezhou, so Yueran went to see them off personally."
Chai Shirong became angry when Biyun Mountain was mentioned. "It's nearly a thousand miles from Shengzhou to Yuezhou. It seems that Sixth Brother has raised quite a few skilled fighters."
"Yue Ran went alone. She said that as long as Duke Lu didn't send troops to encircle and suppress her, she would be able to return safely."
Chai Shijing added with pride, "Father, on this trip, perhaps Yueran can help you eliminate Xiao Qiyang's private soldiers. Yueran said she doesn't dare to ask for a reward, but only wants to buy Luoyang Mountain. I beg for your permission."
He pulled out a few sheets of paper from his sleeve and handed them to the eunuch Li Xi. "This is the method of coal mining and coal production written by Yue Ran. She is willing to present it to the court."
Emperor Jianning took the paper from Li Xi and looked at it for a few seconds. "Did she really go alone? Did you send anyone to protect her?"
"Yes, she has nearly three hundred wolves around her. No ordinary scoundrel would dare to cause trouble for her."
Emperor Jianning glanced at Chai Shijing and said, "Don't worry!"
Eliminating Xiao Qiyang's private soldiers means that they guessed that the prince would send people to intercept and kill him, and they dared to go alone. Is this girl not afraid of death or is she really that powerful?
A smile spread across Chai Shijing's lips. "My beloved girl has always been very smart."
Beloved girl? Emperor Jianning glanced at Chai Shijing and said, "The deed to Luoyang Mountain is in the Ministry of Justice. Go get it!"
After Chai Shijing left, Chai Shirong began to complain, "Father, you didn't see it, but Sixth Brother and Kang Yueran often hug and kiss each other in front of others without any hesitation. It's really uncivilized..."
"Alright, don't provoke Lao Liu again! Lao Liu just said that Kang Yueran is his beloved. He was reminding me that if you dare to hurt Kang Yueran, he will not let it go."
Chai Shirong's face was gloomy, and he retorted in a low voice: "She is just a female bandit, what's the harm in killing her." The remaining private soldiers would be a nuisance if they were kept, so as soon as Kang Yueran left Beijing, he ordered them to intercept and kill Kang Yueran.
"Did you really send someone to kill her?" Emperor Jianning was furious, his voice suddenly rising, "You idiot, this is the first time that Lao Liu has fallen in love with a woman, the one dear to his heart. If you dare to touch her, he will never let you off easily.
Don't you know how much leverage you have over me? Do you still want to be the crown prince?"
Chai Shirong continued to refute, "Father, the Sixth Prince is a prince after all. He can't possibly marry a female bandit as his princess. He doesn't mind being ashamed, but I do."
Emperor Jianning was furious. He stood up from his chair, grabbed the teacup, and smashed it on Chai Shirong. "What's wrong with a female bandit? Who she marries is none of your business. Get out!"
Chai Shirong was stunned. He had never seen Emperor Jianning so angry.
Li Xi walked up to Chai Shirong and reminded him, "Your Highness, please return to the East Palace first!"
Chai Shirong finally reacted, bowed, and quickly retreated. He did not return to the East Palace, but went to the Queen's bedroom. He wanted to know what happened to his father.
This matter must be remedied quickly! Emperor Jianning shouted: "Li Xi, summon Qin Cheng!"
Yuanzhou suburbs
Kang Yueran lay in the woods high up, covered his body with leaves, set up a long-range crossbow, and was ready for battle.
After a while, the white tiger ran past from a low place, and behind it, a large group of people in black were chasing it closely.
This road is the only way for Kang Yueran to go to Yuezhou, and it is rarely visited. If you want to kill her, this place is very suitable.
So she deliberately let the wolves reveal their whereabouts, and sent the white tiger to lure people over, intending to strike first.
Most of the people had arrived, and Kang Yueran started shooting arrows.
The sound of the long-range crossbow was very small, and the eight hundred private soldiers couldn't find Kang Yueran's location after searching for a long time.
Seeing more and more people injured, the private soldiers began to want to escape. Kang Yueran did not give them a chance and increased the speed of his arrow shooting.
At this time, the wolves she had hidden in the mountains rushed down the mountain and fought with the private soldiers.
Kang Yueran paused. According to her plan, if she was discovered and couldn't escape, the wolves would come again.
She understood that the Wolf King must be worried about her, so he led the wolf pack to help her. She shot arrows non-stop, and the white tiger also went to help the wolf pack fight.
With a two-pronged approach, the battle was over quickly.
The white tiger roared, telling Kang Yueran that they had won!
Kang Yueran put away his long-range crossbow and arrows and quickly ran down the mountain. "Wolf King, didn't we agree to let you wait on the mountain?"
The wolf king wagged his tail to please his master. How could they just watch and not help when their master took risks for them?
Kang Yueran flicked the wolf king's head, "You act on your own!"
She counted and found seven wolves were dead and eighteen were injured. She brought the eighteen wolves into the space and applied medicine to each of them to heal their wounds.
After coming out, she picked up a knife on the ground and stabbed and pulled out the arrows from the men in black one by one.
Baihu reminded Kang Yueran, "Master, the arrows were bought from the mall. You can spend some money to buy a one-button recycling button, and the arrows will automatically return to the space."
A lot of things in the Wang family warehouse were sold, and Kang Yueran still had a lot left. "You're right, I'll make up for it first."
As she continued to kill, she counted the men in black, and there were a total of 629 of them. Adding these people to the ones who had previously tried to assassinate Chai Shijing, the total number was almost 800.
Kang Yueran stripped off the inner garment of a man in black, stained it with his blood, wrote a line of words on it, and tied it to the place where she had just shot the arrow.
As the sky gradually darkened, Kang Yueran took the bodies of the seven wolves to an open space and burned them, and placed the ashes together with A'er.
After daybreak, they set off again.
