"Stay away from him." Fu Yuheng glared at her coldly before leaving with a word.
Shen Qingwan felt that she was very innocent. She clearly didn't say anything, yet she was dragged into it. However, she could only helplessly twitch her mouth.
After a while, she had already hunted a few more prey, but it was said that there were deer in the forest, but she still hadn't seen any.
"Giddy up!" Shen Qingwan chased after the deer, but after chasing for a long time, the deer stopped and walked, but every time she nocked an arrow, the deer would run away.
The deeper they went, the more desolate the scenery became. The surroundings were already devoid of other people, only now did Shen Qingwan feel that something was amiss, whether it was the deer's vigilance or her current situation.
Her premonitions were usually very strong, and she was getting more and more uneasy. Suddenly, he felt dizzy and shook his head, realizing that he had fallen into a trap. "Who's there!" Suddenly, a wordy voice came from behind her, making her panic.
"Heh, This King saved your life again." Fu Huaiyu came out from the bushes with a smile that was not a smile.
However, the meaning in her words made her a little confused. What did he mean by saving her life? When was this?
"Why are you here?" Shen Qingwan turned her horse and walked towards Fu Huaiyu's direction. Only then did she realise that there were two black-clothed men lying in the grass behind him. He immediately understood what was going on, "Then I really have to thank Ninth Prince."
Fu Huaiyu circled around her, and sighed silently: "You are truly hateful! These people are probably members of the Liu Family! " Ye Zichen clicked his tongue. There was a bit of interest in the way he looked at her, as if she was some sort of interesting toy.
"If This King had not saved you, I'm afraid that you would be the one lying on the ground." While he was speaking sarcastically, he said with an expression that seemed as if he deserved a beating, "Last time, you did not repay Ben Wang. This time, you owe me another favor. Remember this well. Ben Wang will ask you for it."
He wasn't the least bit polite, but he heard the corner of her mouth twitch.
"Ninth Prince is such a generous person, how could he possibly care about those worldly possessions?" Shen Qingwan also raised her eyebrows. Her actions and style were clearly the same as Fu Yuheng's.
"Sigh!" "Woman, it's one thing if you aren't grateful, but you're destroying the bridge after crossing the river." Fu Huaiyu chased after him and didn't stop to talk the whole way.
On the other side of the forest, beside the man in black, a man on a horse came rushing over. It was the man from the Liu Family, "Damn it. If it wasn't for that person, she would have died a long time ago." He clenched his fists inside his sleeves, tightly gritting his teeth. His face was dark and cold, and there was no attempt to conceal the dark shadow in his eyes.
"Humph!" Ye Zichen let out a cold snort and got his men to pick up the two men on the ground.
"Pah!" The sound of the teacup shattering could be heard as it fell to the ground. Prime Minister Liu sat on the chair with anger expressed on his face.
"A bunch of trash!" He hadn't expected that such a ridiculous plan would appear in the middle of his journey. All of a sudden, he interrupted his plans, "Do you know what this failure means?"
This angry shout made everyone who was kneeling tremble in fear, and no one dared to say a word.
"This means that the Ninth Prince will definitely know that our Liu Estate has done this. Even Shen Qingwan will know about it!" The fist landed on the table, and even the teacup on top of it vibrated with a sizzling sound.
"This …" The man kneeling on the ground looked at each other, but they all felt that Prime Minister Liu's words were a bit too serious. With a prince like him, how could he possibly have such a brain?
"You guys!" "Really!" Noticing the clear distrust in the crowd below, he could only sit down dispiritedly, feeling that he had failed. Others might not know, but how could he not know? Fu Huaiyu was basically a wild beast covered in sheepskin. Everyone could only see his appearance, but in that fellow's heart, it was not as simple as it looked on the surface.
"All of you, go down!" There was more to be considered. If word got to the ears of the Emperor, the Liu Family would suffer a huge blow.
After Shen Qingwan came out, she didn't go with him. There were too many people here, and if someone saw it, they would be suspicious.
Fu Huaiyu also knew her worries, and a faint smile appeared on his face. In the end, he did not persist anymore and dispersed from her.
There were still about two hours left. Shen Qingwan continued to wander in the forest and hunted down a prey from time to time. She only slowly walked back when dusk approached.
Since she had something on her mind, she came back before everyone else. She tied the horse to the side and waited for everyone to return.
What she did not expect was that the second one to come out was the man from the Liu Family. Their eyes met, and they were both cold.
"What is elder sister looking at?" Li Ruotong also walked out and saw her staring into the distance. She patted her shoulder with a happy and mischievous expression.
"Nothing." Withdrawing her gaze, she suppressed the thoughts in her heart. Sooner or later, she would have to settle this debt.
Since the other party had already come knocking on her door, she had no reason to sit still and wait for death.
"Thank you for your hard work, everyone. The banquet is about to begin, please wait for a moment." Fu Yuheng was seated in the front, obviously in a good mood.
"Congratulations your majesty, we've hunted two deer." One of the ministers stepped forward and congratulated him. As he saw the smile on Fu Yuheng's face grow wider.
After the banquet was over, everyone returned to the tent and prepared to leave the next day. However, Shen Qingwan tossed and turned, unable to fall asleep no matter how hard she tried.
