Li Luru naturally noticed his gaze, but this was a gift from her master, she couldn’t give it to anyone else.
Ye Rongqing thought for a mont and then asked, "Sister-in-law, can you train birds?"
Li Luru thought about it; she could, right? It seems most of the intelligent birds that hear the tunes her master taught her listen to her commands.
Thinking about it, she nodded.
"That’s wonderful." Ye Rongqing jumped with joy on his horse, startling it into a run.
"This Qingqing!" Ye Haoxuan shook his head, "He should be getting married soon, but still acts like he hasn’t grown up."
Ye Haoyang raised an eyebrow, "Isn’t the youngest always like that?"
Ye Haoxuan shrugged, as it indeed seed so. Thinking back to when it was just him and Yangyang at ho, Yangyang was always quite childish as the youngest.
With this thought, he glanced at him.
The group returned to Yun’an Prefecture City by noon the next day.
Upon entering, a servant said, "Sirs, Lord He is here again."
This Lord He was the Prefect of Yun’an Prefecture.
"Why has he co?"
The servant replied, "I heard they’ve found Second Young Master Situ, but he’s dead. Lord He seeks your advice."
"Seeking Brother’s advice?"
Ye Haoxuan thought, this isn’t about asking for advice, clearly he’s asking for to speak on his behalf. The body of Situ Er surely needs to be sent back to the Capital City, once the Situ Family knows, there’ll likely be fury; these people are afraid.
"We’ve been staying at their place these days, not showing up isn’t good. Fine, ask him to go to the study, I’ll be there shortly."
"Yes!"
Once he went to the study, Lord He’s intention was as expected.
"Prince, I thought there was a gold mine, but now there’s none, and it’s cost the life of Lord Situ. I’m afraid my official position won’t be secure." He paused before continuing, "I also heard from the servants that the head of the Hundred Snakes Gang once visited the Prince."
As he ntioned this, his eyes sparkled. No matter how he thought about it, it felt strange. White Stripe Mountain has been there for quite so ti, the people from the Hundred Snakes Gang have been there for years, and previously, there was no talk of gold mines. How co just after Tu Niu visited Prince An, they started claiming there’s a gold mine?
Reflecting on the events on the mountain, how could the soil be so loose that it collapsed after just a few steps, and they couldn’t locate anyone at the original site? They searched rigorously, finding nothing, but two days later, bodies appeared.
Now, thinking about it in detail, it’s not simple.
Yet, Ye Haoxuan seed as though he hadn’t heard him, continuing to fiddle with the beads in his hand.
"Prince..."
He wanted to say sothing more, but Ye Haoxuan raised a hand, "Lord He, you must understand one thing: Second Young Master Situ was pulled into the soil because he inadvertently angered the mountain god. Otherwise, why was it that among so many people present, only he and his guard were taken in? I think, even if State Duke Situ were present, he couldn’t defy the mountain god, could he?"
"As for myself, Lord He, I haven’t been to White Stripe Mountain; these days I’ve been busy with other matters. I went to Zigui just yesterday, and only just returned to et you—how could I have ti to et the leader of so Hundred Snakes Gang?"
At this mont, the door to the study was knocked on.
His subordinate opened the door, and the person who entered knelt to report, "Prince, a gold mine has indeed been found on White Stripe Mountain."
"Really?" Ye Haoxuan thought it couldn’t be such a coincidence.
