The sun's rays poured down, reflecting on Feng's sad and handsome face.
He was condescending, looking at Chu Yue with a half-smile but not a smile. The sunlight coated his whole body with a layer of light gold. At first glance, it actually revealed a bit of breeze and bright moonlight.
Chu Yue's eyes fell on the apple in Feng Beiyin's hand. For a moment, she couldn't help but think of Princess Snow White's stepmother, and she couldn't help laughing.
"My mother said that girls should not smile at men casually."
Feng Beiyin was like a cynical dandy, hanging one of his slender legs, and said pointedly: "Otherwise, if you make people's hearts flutter, you will have to be responsible."
Chu Yue folded her hands around her chest, leaned her back against the wall, looked sideways lazily, and asked lightly: "Do you like apples very much?"
Feng Beiyin fell back and rested his head on the high wall with one hand. The dazzling green sun made him half-squint his narrow and coquettish eyes.
He pulled his lips, showed a smile, and said disapprovingly: "That year, my mother died of depression. Before she died, she wanted to eat an apple, but I couldn't afford it."
At this point, the man turned his head and looked sideways at Chu Yue, his eyes filled with deathly silence, and his red lips parted into a sad smile.
"Later, I went to steal the old gentleman's apples from the long street. When I took them home, my mother had already passed away."
Just like that, the young Feng Beiyin knelt in front of his mother's cold body and stuffed the stolen apples into his mouth one by one, which tasted like chewed wax.
Sometimes, the tears will fall into the lips together with the apple.
Listening to Feng's sad voice, Chu Yue pursed her lips.
"Birth, old age, illness and death may be the normal state of things in this world."
Feng Beiyin took a few bites of the apple, jumped off the courtyard wall, and threw a purple medicine bottle into Chu Yue's arms.
Chu Yue caught her, and Feng Beiyin rushed over, stretched out his hand to rub her hair, and said with a smile: "Don't always care about other people's sadness and forget about the wounds on your own body."
Chu Yue opened the medicine bottle and took a sip. It was a medicine specially used to heal bones.
"Thanks."
Chu Yue fell and accepted it generously.
Feng Beiyin said nonchalantly: "This is Ghost Moon Palace's return gift."
After saying that, Feng Beiyin moved her slender legs, bit the apple and walked forward, looked around, and sighed: "The Prince of the Underworld's thing is not there, and I don't know how to throw away this apple core, worry~"
Chu Yue looked at Feng Beiyin's back, and the corners of her lips curled up into a smile unconsciously.
What I have to say is that the heavy weight that was weighing on her heart like a mountain has eased a lot.
"Yuezi, this man is trying to seduce you. We who practice martial arts must not indulge in male lust."
Rag, who had been silent for a long time, suddenly reminded him.
The corner of Chu Yue's mouth twitched slightly, and she seriously suspected that the old man Yashan disliked this guy's chatty nature, so he handed it to her.
Xuanyuan Xiu corrected him: "Nonsense. Throughout the ages, those who have achieved great things have always had three thousand beauties in their harem. Little Ye Zi, I think Feng Beiyin can at least make one noble concubine."
Chu Yue's face was covered with black lines, and a drop of cold sweat fell on her forehead. She resisted the urge to roll her eyes and silently closed the connection with Shennong's space.
But Xuanyuan Xiu and Ragbu, who felt that Chu Chuyue's mood had completely improved, smiled in tacit understanding.
Chu Yue put away the bone-healing potion and returned directly to the city lord's mansion. She was not in a hurry to heal her wounds, but went directly to the lobby.
"General Ye."
City Lord Lin Beixuan waited in fear for a long time. When he saw Chu Yue again, he looked at the injury on Chu Yue's shoulder and swallowed in fear.
Then he said uneasily: "Just let the servants do those little things. The general is injured, so why should he condescend to go there in person?"
"General Ye, you have worked hard all night, why not take a short rest and heal your wounds." General Gu, the garrison general, said with concern.
In addition, there are also key officials of all sizes in Beixuan City gathered here.
Chu Yue stood in front of the threshold with an expressionless face. She directly raised her legs and walked to the innermost place, sitting down at the main seat.
"Submit all the newly mined iron ore in Beixuan and the miners' records over the years,"
After Chu Yue sat down, she crossed her slender legs and leaned back lazily.
"The miners have a lot of books and it will take some time to sort them out. The detailed information on Beixuan New Mine is here."
Lin Beixuan seemed to have been prepared for it. He took out all the information about the new mine and placed it in front of Chu Yue.
"General Ye, please take a look."
Lin Beixuan smiled flatteringly.
Chu Yue flipped through a few pages casually and raised her eyebrows slightly.
There are no flaws in these numbers and details in the books and information.
It can be seen that Lin Beixuan has switched sides for a long time and has made complete plans to deal with it.
"Has anything unusual happened in the new mine recently?"
Chu Yue asked again.
Lin Beixuan shook his head: "Beixuan City is rich in resources. Mining iron ore is the livelihood of the people of Beixuan. They have been used to it for many years and nothing unusual has happened."
Chu Yue said nothing, her eyes as sharp as an eagle swept across Lin Beixuan's body, and then looked at all the people in the lobby.
Finally, Chu Yue asked: "Who is the director-general in charge of iron ore?"
"Back to General Ye, it's me."
A young woman with delicate features took a few steps forward and whispered.
"You are quite young."
Chu Yue picked up a cup of tea and asked casually: "As far as I know, the iron ore director of Beixuan is a man in his sixties?"
"The general manager is getting older and is planning to retire and return to his hometown in the next two days," the young woman said.
"boom!"
The tea cup in Chu Yue's hand suddenly hit the table.
Suddenly, the entire solid table broke into pieces and completely collapsed!
The huge sound made everyone present shiver down their spines and looked at Chu Yue in surprise.
"Let him come to see me."
Chu Yue said: "Xiao Li, Xuecheng."
Hearing this, the two of them stepped in and cupped their hands!
"You go together with the guards from the city lord's palace. I want to see the living people."
Chu Yue glanced sideways at Lin Beixuan and sneered: "As soon as I come to Beixuan City, the old general will retire and return to his hometown. As the city lord, what are you worried about?"
