There really isn't much that can be done right now.

The robbers have already run away. In ancient times, unlike modern times, there were no cameras everywhere, so the surveillance footage could not be checked.

But if you just guess, you know who did it. But in this kind of thing, it is difficult to find evidence. Although some people were injured, no one died. And the injured were only low-class people, so the government didn't care.

Ji Yunxi closed her eyes, nodded, and returned to the carriage.

On the way back, she didn't say a word, just sat in the innermost corner, with her head down and a cold face, not knowing what she was thinking.

Wu Weian poured her a cup of warm water and handed it to her.

Ji Yunxi shook her head: "No."

Wu Weian could only take it back and drink it himself.

He took a sip, looked at Ji Yunxi, took another sip, and looked at Ji Yunxi again.

After arriving home, Ji Yunxi walked in front alone. As soon as she reached the room, she took off her coat, took off her shoes and socks, climbed onto the bed, covered herself with the quilt, closed her eyes and went to sleep.

Wu Weian watched quietly and didn't say much.

After a busy day, he was really tired. He changed into his pajamas, blew out the candle in the room, and tiptoed to bed.

He was lying at the very outside, quite far away from Ji Yunxi, and it was so quiet that not even the sound of breathing could be heard.

After an unknown amount of time, Ji Yunxi, who had her eyes closed, finally opened them.

She looked at the ceiling above her bed and said to herself, "I'm angry."

Ji Yunxi's tone was as calm as usual, and it sounded as if she was saying that the moonlight was beautiful tonight.

Wu Weian closed his eyes and spoke softly, "The Feng family is deliberately trying to disgust you and me, just to make us angry. It's not worth it to get angry yourself."

"I know." Ji Yunxi said coldly, "But I'm really angry."

Wu Weian chuckled softly. He turned over, lying on his back with his hands behind his pillow, and asked softly, "Then how can you vent your anger?"

Ji Yunxi narrowed her eyes. "Feng Qishi's uncle owns a big escort agency in Shangjing City. It's quite profitable."

She paused, sat up from the bed, crossed her knees, faced him, and said seriously, "I want to rob the dart."

Wu Weian turned his head to look over.

The room was completely dark. In the hazy night, Ji Yunxi's eyes shone incredibly brightly, seemingly blazing with fire.

He couldn't help it, a smile spread from his heart, and his chest vibrated.

Ji Yunxi was puzzled and frowned: "What are you laughing at?"

Wu Weian suppressed his smile and said, "Nothing."

Ji Yunxi repeated again: "I want to grab the dart."

Wu Weian seemed to be really sleepy.

He hummed softly, his voice tinged with weariness, a bit lazy and casual: "Then grab it."

Chapter 39 Can the lady fall asleep now?

The night outside was quiet and the moon was high in the sky.

The sound of frogs croaking came from the other side of the artificial lake.

There was a half-open window in the room, and the night wind passed by, gently brushing the "囍" window paper-cut pasted on the window.

Ji Yunxi sat cross-legged on the bed, tilting her head slightly as she began to plan how to rob the dart. She said, "My people are in the open, they can't be moved."

Since she runs a pawnshop and an auction house, she naturally hires martial arts masters from the martial arts world.

However, these people have probably been targeted by the palace for a long time, so they must act with caution.

Wu Weian closed his eyes, his voice getting deeper and deeper: "I know, I'll make the arrangements."

Ji Yunxi was satisfied: "I heard that the escort agency received several large orders before the New Year. I estimate that they will be outside Shangjing City in a few days. I will ask Wanxiang to confirm it tomorrow, and I will let you know after confirmation."

"Okay." Wu Weian replied.

Although her tone was still calm, he could still hear some interest in it.

A trace of helplessness appeared on Wu Weian's face, but unfortunately, Ji Yunxi didn't see it in the darkness.

The corners of his lips curled slightly: "Then can Madam fall asleep now?"

Ji Yunxi felt relieved now. She lay down again and said calmly, "Okay."

Wu Weian hummed softly, "Then go to sleep."

Ji Yunxi said okay, turned over, closed her eyes, and fell asleep after a while.

As long as she is in a calm mood, she can fall asleep quickly.

Wu Weian, on the other hand, was half asleep and half awake the whole night.

He was a martial artist with extremely strong senses. He could clearly hear Ji Yunxi's shallow breathing. He could also clearly smell the faint fragrance wafting from her body.

As soon as the sky was getting light, Wu Bianxiu, who had to go to the Hanlin Academy, got up.

He moved very quietly so as not to wake the person sleeping in the bed.

The stable was in the backyard, and Wu Weian went there to lead the horse himself.

Originally there was only one horse in the house, but because Ji Yunxi came, the Arabian horse that was specially used to pull the carriage for Ji Yunxi also came over.

The contrast between the Ferghana horse and the Wu family's skinny horse standing together is terrible.

A majestic and powerful one with extremely bright fur.

A skinny one with dark fur.

Seeing someone coming, the Ferghana horse looked down at Wu Weian with its big copper bell eyes, but ignored him. Wu's skinny horse didn't react at all, and seemed to be still asleep.

Wu Weian didn't hesitate much and went to lead the Arabian horse.

There shouldn't be any problem if he uses the lady's carriage, right?

Unfortunately, he failed to move the horse. The horse refused to obey him and its hooves seemed to be nailed to the ground, not moving at all.

Wu Weian raised his eyebrows and was about to exert force with his hands when Baofu came over in person, holding a large pile of grass. He rolled his eyes to the sky and said, "Ahem, good morning, son-in-law."

"Good morning." Wu Weian loosened the reins. "You've arrived just in time. Please help me prepare the carriage."

Baofu said with a forced smile, "Sir, if you want to use a carriage, you must tell the young lady in advance. Otherwise, I would not dare to take the initiative to prepare a horse for you. Sir, have you told the young lady?"

Wu Weian put his hands behind his back, looked at the unruly Arabian horse, then looked at the unruly slave next to it, and felt that his married life was worrying.

And he couldn't do anything to them.
