Chapter 42 Fighting in Shuncheng

After Lu Zhiyao finished speaking, he looked at Xuanyuan Junfan with a sincere expression, as if he was really expecting him to nod in agreement.

"Girl, the emperor will send someone to check again. Do you think you can escape his eyes?"

"Your Highness really doesn't know how to tell a joke. No wonder he hasn't married a princess yet." Lu Zhiyao mocked, stood up straight and walked to the left. "I sold my life to your Xuanyuan family. I'm hungry.

Please treat me to a meal."

Lu Zhiyao took Xuanyuan Junfan to a restaurant. Xuanyuan Junfan looked up and saw that, as expected, it was from the Chu family.

"Why did you choose this place?"

"Because it's delicious." Lu Zhiyao replied succinctly: "It's more delicious than what your chef makes."

Lu Zhiyao's choice is no longer limited to one or two years. In the past, he would starve to death if he didn't eat in the mountains. Now that he has the conditions to go out and eat good food, of course he must choose good food.

Lu Zhiyao chose a side seat and sat down. The food was served. When Lu Zhiyao picked up his chopsticks, he thought of Mo Xiaoying.

Mo Xiaoying had been full of praises after eating Chu's food last time. If she knew that she came to eat again today, she would definitely regret not coming out with her, right?

Lu Zhiyao ate without raising his head, and Xuanyuan Junfan looked at her with his hands folded across his chest. This whole day, it was only during the meal that he could see her happy. It was really dumbfounding.

"I said." Xuanyuan Junfan leaned forward, put one arm on the table, looked at her with his hand on his side, and asked softly: "Is the queen's dream you mentioned today true or false?"

Lu Zhiyao glanced to the side, glanced around and then landed on the person opposite. "What do you think, Your Majesty?"

"Forget that dream, why not come to my house and dream about being a princess? What do you think?"

Lu Zhiyao's movements stopped immediately, and he looked at Xuanyuan Junfan for a moment. Lu Zhiyao put down his chopsticks and asked him with a serious expression, "Your Majesty, I think I will be bribed with just one meal."

Are you the one who betrayed your lust?"

"Tsk tsk, look, what a great opportunity for you to say something so disgusting."

Xuanyuan Junfan sometimes felt that Lu Zhiyao was extremely vulgar. Just like now, she said to him while drinking: "Tsk, tsk, look, he is worthy of being the emperor. He doesn't forget to make me feel uncomfortable when he is not around."

The word "Emperor" automatically disappeared from Lu Zhiyao's mouth. He did not take Xuanyuan Junfan's words seriously at all. Lu Zhiyao continued to fill his stomach and said: "You should leave your good opportunity to others. I am now

There are only slave dreams in my mind."

After drinking a bottle of wine, Lu Zhiyao's expression did not change. Xuanyuan Junfan recalled the gossip he had heard. He heard that Lu Zhiyao would completely change his appearance after drinking. Unfortunately, he never had the chance to see it.

When I saw her drinking with my own eyes, her drinking capacity was already astonishing.

It was already late, and the two of them were not going to change places, so they directly asked for two rooms and went upstairs to rest.

One night passed, and Lu Zhiyao got up early the next day, washed up and left the inn. When he came back an hour later, Xuanyuan Junfan had just woken up. When he went downstairs, he saw Lu Zhiyao sitting leisurely by the window.

Eat breakfast.

Lu Zhiyao waved her hand at him, and when Xuanyuan Junfan sat down, she handed him a piece of paper, which said: The location of the granary has been determined. Is it you who stays here to monitor, or me?

Xuanyuan Junfan thought for a while and pointed at himself. Lu Zhiyao nodded. The two of them ate in silence, but before they finished eating, Lu Zhiyao saw Chu Ziqian swaggering from upstairs.

Walked down.

Lu Zhiyao's vision froze for a moment, then he returned to his original state and ate. But he was thinking in his heart that Chu Ziqian would be here, which further proved that her judgment was correct. But this man was so careless.

He showed up like this without taking any measures. Is he really not afraid of anything? Also, if he is here... where is Lin Yinan?

Xuanyuan Junfan also saw Chu Ziqian, smiled meaningfully, and said to Lu Zhiyao: "I didn't expect that I slept with him last night. What are you thinking about now?"

"I wonder why I didn't act more harshly that day, otherwise I wouldn't have seen this face now."

Lu Zhiyao didn't move his teeth as he whispered to Xuanyuan Junfan, his eyes full of regret. She should have let him lie in bed for a month without being able to move. What a mistake!

"You're right, this is indeed a good place." Xuanyuan Junfan said thoughtfully: "It seems I have to take a closer look to see if there are any other acquaintances here."

"Do it yourself." Lu Zhiyao said vaguely to Xuanyuan Junfan while eating something. He was thinking about where Lin Yinan would be and whether she should go back to Qingming Kingdom to see Xuanyuan Haotian.

It was normal for Xuanyuan Haotian not to believe her, but looking at the current situation, Lu Zhiyao felt that the more people came, the more troubles there would be. There were only a few people in the team who could really make a difference, so it was not as good as her and

If Xuanyuan Junfan takes action, it would be easier to escape. There is no need to go back to Qingming Kingdom to report and then come back to take action.

Lu Zhiyao thought about it and made his decision by the time breakfast was finished.

"I'm going to buy some things later. You wait for me here."

"Okay." Xuanyuan Junfan answered happily, because he also had his own things to do.

After Lu Zhiyao left, Xuanyuan Junfan searched the entire inn, but unfortunately no trace of Lin Yinan was found. When Lu Zhiyao returned to the room with his things, Xuanyuan Junfan asked in confusion: "Aren't you going back?"

"Is it necessary to go back? It's just a waste of time." Lu Zhiyao lowered his head and concentrated on doing things.

"Just the two of us?"

"That's enough."

Lu Zhiyao didn't even raise his head. Xuanyuan Junfan looked at her for a while and asked again: "Aren't you always here with your heart? Why don't you inform them and move the food away?"

"Tell the news?" Lu Zhiyao slowly raised his head to look at him and asked: "In what capacity do I do this? In your eyes, I am a pawn, and in their eyes, I am not much better. National affairs,

What does it have to do with a weak woman like me? Do what I can and protect what I can protect. This is the most clear thing I have learned in the past few years. I went to report the news and was unlucky enough to be caught. What should I do?

?I'm just a woman, a woman with four children."

Lu Zhiyao understands her importance, just like she understands that she can't defeat Liao Wuhen now, and she will definitely not be able to defeat Lin Yinan. If she is really caught by people from Xia Lai Kingdom, not only her, but also her

All children will be punished. Liao Wuhen knew very well what to do to keep her memory the longest.

Lu Zhiyao has always been like an outlier. There is no place for her in Xia Lai Country, and Qingming Country is not the place she should stay. Being sandwiched between two countries, everyone wants to take advantage of it, and Lu Zhiyao also

She really wants to show kindness, and also wants to make the two countries peaceful and peaceful, so that war will never happen again, but what ability does she have? So just go on like this heartlessly, which is good. Heartless people live longer.

"You can't buy this thing casually on the street, right?" Xuanyuan Junfan knew that he had hit Lu Zhiyao's bottom line, so he changed the subject.

"Stolen in the military camp."

"You went to the border?!" No wonder you didn't come back until now...

"Yeah." Lu Zhiyao replied nonchalantly: "Go and rest. We will move at night. I'm tired and want to go back."

Although Lu Zhiyao said this, how could he sleep while she was tinkering with gunpowder in his room!

Xuanyuan Junfan sat by the window, watching Lu Zhiyao from a distance, ready to jump out of the window at any time.

Late at night, a loud noise woke everyone in the inn from their sleep, including Lin Yinan and Qing Yan.

Qing Yan's first reaction was that there was an assassin, but she soon realized that was not the case.

The inn caught fire, but no one was injured. The amount of gunpowder was well controlled. Less would not achieve the effect, while more would spread to the second, third and fourth floors. The explosion was in the backyard, and the first floor was also damaged.

, but because it was closed long ago and no one was eating downstairs, we were spared the trouble.

After Lin Yinan and Qing Yan left, they immediately went to the county government office. As expected, something happened there too.

Many people were awakened by the noise from the inn and rushed to put out the fire. Because the inn was in a busy city, if they could not control it, many surrounding businesses would be implicated.

The Yamen and the inn are separated by a street, but you can still hear the sound. Everyone here knows the name of the Chu family. Some people even know that the eldest young master of the Chu family is a celebrity around the current emperor, and the county master is one of them.

Half asleep, he was woken up by someone at home and told that the Chu family's inn was on fire. He was startled, quickly put on his clothes and ran out, arranging for someone to go there to help put out the fire.

Chu Ziqian has returned to Shuncheng. He received the news yesterday! If you don't seize such a good opportunity, how long will it take?

In the darkness, Xuanyuan Junfan looked at the movement in the yamen, frowned and asked: "Are you so sure that the people here will definitely pass by?"

"I saw someone from the government office today came to see Chu Ziqian. The county master wanted to invite Young Master Chu to have a meal and meet him. His intention to please could not be more obvious."

After Lu Zhiyao explained, he immediately took action. The two of them took advantage of the chaos to go to the granary, knocked out or killed the people guarding here, pried open the granary, saw the grain with their own eyes, and continued to do the following things.

Things were going smoothly until those three people appeared.

When Lu Zhiyao saw Lin Yinan, his conditioned reflex was to run away. His body had already done so before he even thought about it in his mind.

Chu Ziqian and Qing Yan worked together to stop Xuanyuan Junfan. Lin Yinan, who had calmly watched the battle last time, also took action this time.

He ran directly towards Lu Zhiyao. Seeing that he couldn't escape, Lu Zhiyao had no choice but to fight.

Lu Zhiyao's mind went blank, and she felt uneasy. It was like when she was a child, she did bad things behind her parents' back and was afraid of being discovered. She hadn't felt that way in a long time.

She showed no mercy to Lin Yinan, because even if she tried her best, she might not be able to escape from him.

After beating for a while, the mask on Lu Zhiyao's face was pulled off. Lin Yinan's eyes flashed when he looked at the unfamiliar face, and he forced her into a corner.

Lu Zhiyao was waiting for an opportunity to escape, but Lin Yinan was chasing after her. During the fight between the two, the sleeve of Lu Zhiyao's right hand was accidentally torn. Several scars were crisscrossed on her arm, and the ugly person was looking at her openly.

Laughing. Lu Zhiyao lowered his eyes and stopped his hand suddenly. Lin Yinan also saw those scars and was stunned, but she ran away.
