Chapter 36

C36 – Weren’t Foxes Supposed to Eat Chickens?

When Yin Xu walked out of the tent, he discovered that the atmosphere in the camp was a little strange. There were busy soldiers everywhere, but they were all busy with their heads down, not even daring to speak loudly.

He randomly grabbed one and asked, “What happened? It’s time to leave the camp? “

When the soldier saw that it was him, he bared his eight teeth and replied in a low voice, “That’s right, we’re going back to the capital. We’re packing up right now.”

Ever since Yin Xu defeated Kou Zhongming, the soldiers all looked at him differently. Some male pets, some trash, some others even took off their hats.

It was said that because of this matter, Huo Yiloong had even destroyed a few cups and kept himself inside his tent the whole morning.

“Eh? “That auspicious sign ...” Yin Xu pointed to the location of the Loong’an Temple.Visit no(v)eLb(i)n.com for the best novel reading experience

“Sigh, where did this auspicious sign come from? I heard that there was a jade vein found in the mountain behind Loong’an Temple. That night, it was as if the moonlight was reflecting on the jade.”

“There’s really a jade mine?” Yin Xu was skeptical, that strange scene was clearly caused by Loong’an Temple and those fake monks, how did it become a jade mine?

“How can this be false?” The First Prince has already sent someone to notify the government that someone will be coming tomorrow to take over the mine. “

Yin Xu let go of him, rubbing his chin and thought: Jade ore, that’s a good thing. If he wanted to set up a formation or something, he would need to use up a large amount of jade, and on his hands, he doesn’t even have a single piece.

It was bustling with activity outside, Yin Xu turned around and glanced at the Third Prince’s beautiful and quiet tent, guessing in his heart: I wonder what role that person played in this matter.

In fact, Teng Yu did not do anything, he only received the news a little earlier than Yin Xu. There was indeed a jade vein on the mountain, that was discovered by Mo Hanshan and the others long ago, and had always been owned by them. Otherwise, with just the money from a temple, it would not be enough to support their expenses.

After Teng Yu found out, she asked him to offer up the jade mine. Possessing the jade mine was a heavy crime, he did not lack silver, there was no need to take the risk.

The most important thing was to fool Mascot. Otherwise, who knew how this situation would end.

The First Prince had originally wanted to keep it for himself, but it was a pity that too many people knew about this matter. Moreover, he did not have the time to waste it here.

Before leaving, the First Prince specially sent someone over to ask Teng Yu if he wanted to return to the capital with them.

He sneered, “With me here, I’m afraid Big Brother won’t be able to eat and sleep well all the way. If you get sick, it’ll be my fault again. So, let’s go our separate ways.”

The First Prince was not annoyed either. He acted as an example of generosity in front of others and even gifted four imperial guards to Teng Yu.

Little did he know that when Teng Yu looked at the four guards, a cold glint flashed across his eyes, as sharp as knives.

Huo Yiloong imitated him and also called Yin Xu over for a “care”. It was just that he did not want them to go home together, but rather, to scold and warn them, to let them know his identity, so that they would not do something that would embarrass their Huo Family.

Yin Xu’s reaction was even more indifferent, “Fifth brother, have a pleasant journey.”

He was looking forward to the moment when Huo Yiloong realised that his powers could not be improved. That face must be really good-looking, but unfortunately, he could not see it for the time being!

The First Prince and the others left in a grandiose manner on this winter’s afternoon, leaving only a few tents behind. It seemed even colder and emptier.

Teng Yu saw that the teenager had entered his own tent without even greeting him. He asked with a headache: “Why aren’t you leaving?”

Yin Xu liked Teng Yu’s soft couch, which made it especially comfortable to lie down with its thick fur.

He crossed his legs and asked, “Why should I leave? This place is good to eat and drink, I would like to go up the mountain and have a look at that jade mine. ” It would be even more beautiful if he could move half of it.

“How can a mere commoner like you look at that?” With a fierce expression, Teng Yu advised, “This mine is the foundation of our nation. At that time, there will definitely be heavy soldiers guarding it from all sides. You won’t be able to see it.”

Yin Xu walked in front of him and smiled, “Isn’t there still Third Prince you? Or could it be that the Third Prince is planning to do something bad in secret? “

Teng Yu smelled the special fragrance on his body again. He rubbed the tip of his nose, and looked at Yin Xu with a measuring gaze.

This youth was clearly young, yet he gave him a feeling that he couldn’t see through him. Could it be that he found out about the matter with Loong’an Temple?

But how could that be possible? Even if he was hidden, it was impossible for him to hide from so many experts on the mountain and discover the secret in the basement.

Teng Yu scoffed, and answered righteously: “Does this hall need to hide anything from people if I want to do bad things?”

Liao County’s Magistrate returned in low spirits. Before leaving, he sent a look to the siblings, telling them to pray for good fortune. These few days, he had been a prince among the nobles. Who knew what sort of perverted hobbies he would have?

These two siblings had been exiled many years ago, but because of their friendship with the official, County Magistrate Liao had secretly adopted them. When he went back last night, he had mentioned this incident in a moment of annoyance.

He also knew that once a child grew up, his heart would also grow. After all, they weren’t his own children, so he couldn’t care too much about them. He could only hope that they didn’t regret it.

After Liao Bingwen left, Teng Yu pushed the man and woman away and shouted: “Han Qing!”

“Yes, Mistress.”

“Take him down and watch.”

“Your Highness ...” That siblings face stiffened as they shouted in disbelief. Unfortunately, Teng Yu didn’t even look at them once.

Han Qing was used to this kind of thing. He walked forward and slapped one of them unconscious, and then carried the two of them out.

After arranging the people properly, Han Qing quickly came back in.

“Where’s Huo Tian?”

“Seventh Young Master took his men out. He said that he wanted to hunt in the mountains.”

“You brought” us “people?”

“Yes, this subordinate has the intention to remind you, but Seventh Young Master doesn’t seem to mind.”

“Then let him be. In any case, if we give them ten guts, they won’t dare to hurt Marshal Huo’s son.”

“Then, tomorrow night ...” Seventh Young Master...? “

Teng Yu frowned, he waved Han Qing over, and whispered some instructions into his ear.

“Don’t overestimate his weight. It should be enough for him to sleep until dawn.” After an entire night of time, he believed that Mo Hanshan’s matter had come to an end.

“This subordinate understands.”

Yin Xu’s group returned with a lot of prey, but in winter, the prey was usually very thin, even the biggest wild boar didn’t weigh more than a hundred kilograms.

“I’m freezing to death!” Yin Xu rushed into the tent, and the moment he stepped on the thick blanket, he kicked off his boots and sat down by the fire.

A pair of hands passed through his neck to help him untie the demon. Before Yin Xu could say a word of thanks, the little fellow in his embrace reached out its head and bared its fangs behind him.

“Where did this little thing come from?” Teng Yu’s movements paused, and his pair of small eyes glared at each other.

“I ran into it on the mountain. I saw that it still had a bit of spirit, so I mercifully refused to take it to the kitchen.”

“You want to raise it?”

“Why not?”

Teng Yu fiddled with the little thing’s ear, and was almost scratched. He laughed and said: “This is a Scarlet Fox, right? It’s said that this kind of fox has great attack power. Once it’s mature, it can be used as a relief. “

Yin Xu grabbed it by its neck and looked at it, evidently not believing in the words “extremely aggressive”, “Only this piece of skin can be seen, when it grows older I’ll peel it off for you to make a fur collar.”

“Awoo ...” The little fox didn’t know if it understood what Yin Xu said, but it was so scared that it wanted to struggle free from Yin Xu’s grasp.

“Haha ...” “He really is intelligent.” Teng Yu didn’t have any love for the little animals, but he remembered that his mother really liked these little things.

“Right, what does it eat?” Yin Xu asked in confusion.

“Weren’t foxes supposed to eat chickens?”

“Isn’t it the weasel that eats chickens?”

“...” “Is that so?” the His Highness The Prince asked uncertainly.

The two of them did not even know what the chicken looked like, let alone the profound question of whether the fox would eat the chicken. As a result, they could only leave feeding the fox to someone else.
