Yuan Che was really very angry.

The prince was angry, and no one else at the table dared to breathe loudly.

The dancers retreated one after another, and the other accompanying officials also stood up and took their leave.

Mr. Fu stayed.

He lowered his eyes and thought for a moment, then stood up and walked towards Yuan Che.

"Your Highness."

"explain."

Yuan Che was very angry.

It was because the other party was Mr. Fu, his chief of staff and think tank, that he would give him some face.

If it was someone else, forget about saving face, he would have kicked them away long ago.

"Your Highness, Miss Xia has disrupted your affairs time and again. This can no longer be tolerated."

Or to be more specific, we can no longer ignore the existence of summer cicadas.

If Xia Chan could be used by them, then the more powerful she was, the better.

But now the summer cicadas are of no use to them.

She is so powerful that she can only do harm to the prince.

"Mr. Fu, what do you think we should do about this?"

Faced with Xia Chan's provocation, Yuan Che was so angry that he had no idea what to do.

I can only ask Mr. Fu.

Find a way from him.

Mr. Fu pondered for a moment and said, "Miss Xia is still the daughter of the Marquis after all."

"We shouldn't hide what she's doing outside from the Marquis."

Perhaps they can find some ways to deal with the summer cicadas from Marquis Lin'an.

At worst the Marquis could come forward personally. Xia Chan would never deny face even to her biological father.

Yuan Che nodded.

"Do as you say, Mr. Fu."

"Yes."

"Go and issue a bounty. Anyone who can catch Xia Chan will be promoted to a higher position and given a reward of 10,000 taels, no matter who it is."

After Yuan Che finished speaking, he thought of his right-hand man Zhu Qiang, who was repeatedly fooled by Xia Chan.

I'm afraid ordinary soldiers can't catch summer cicadas at all.

He added, "People in the martial arts world can also participate. No matter who they are, as long as they catch the summer cicada, they can come and claim the reward."

Yuan Che was really angry.

That's why he could accept even the people in the underworld whom he despised the most.

Now the summer cicada is the mouse, and in this world, no matter it is a black cat or a white cat, as long as it can catch the summer cicada, it is a good cat.

Besides, when the person is really caught, whether he will fulfill his promise of reward or promotion will be decided at that time.

The most urgent task now is to find the summer cicada.

Mr. Fu also felt that the matter was serious and that we should not be bound by any formalities.

The best thing is to catch the person.

"Yes, I'll make arrangements right away."

"Thank you for your hard work, Mr. Fu."

Yuan Che watched Mr. Fu leave, then turned around and went to the study to personally write a letter to his uncle, Marquis Lin'an.

If Xia Chan's problem is not resolved one day, he will have one more day of sleepless nights and restless nights.

He is a man who wants to do great things, and he can't let Xia Chan affect him...

…………

In the mountains.

Xia Chan, who was rushing home, never thought that Yuan Che compared her to a mouse.

She walked home with a bag full of things in her arms, and Mrs. Xie followed behind her.

The two of them returned with much more brisk steps than when they left.

Why was Mrs. Xie so happy? That was because Xie Chang and Xie Yuan were still alive. As for Xia Chan, it was because she had confiscated a lot of supplies.

Also, she found that two more shops in her pedestrian street had been unlocked.

On the right side of the pedestrian street, the fourth and fifth stores are unlocked.

After opening three stores, namely women's clothing, men's clothing, and mother and baby products, we opened a bedding store and a beauty and care store.

Summer Cicada: ...

Although beauty care products may not seem to be of much use at the moment, you don’t have to worry about running out of them when you wash your hair, take a shower, or apply body lotion.

As for the bedding?

That is of great use.

When the house was built, she took out the mattress.

Although the bedding store only has four or five mattresses, and more are quilts and various four-piece sets, it doesn't matter.

They can replicate infinitely.

So even though there are only a few mattresses, they have no problem sleeping on two mattresses each.

She has enough stuff here.

After crossing the mountain, we started to go down, passing through a valley with towering trees, listening to the cries of unidentified wild animals deep in the woods.

Both Xia Chan and Mrs. Xie walked with extreme caution.

While observing the situation around them, the two of them chatted about the people outside the charity cemetery.

Who will it be?

Xia Chan said: "The footsteps sound very chaotic, they are probably not soldiers, but ordinary people."

It was probably the residents nearby who happened to see someone entering and leaving the charity cemetery, and for a moment they couldn't tell whether it was a human or a ghost, so a large group of people came together to see.

When Mrs. Xie heard that it was not the prince or someone from the government, she felt relieved.

"Fortunately, he is not from the government."

"Don't worry, sister-in-law. Even if the government officials come, they can't take us away easily."

"Well, I believe you."

The two chatted for a while and it was already dark.

Xia Chan took out another flashlight and handed it to Mrs. Xie, and the two sisters-in-law continued their journey overnight.

The return journey seemed to be shorter than the way there, and they walked until the second half of the night, around three o'clock, and returned to the place where the Xie family had cut trees to build the house.

The Xie family, young and old, were not in their original resting place.

There was no one around.

Mrs. Xie nervously grabbed Xia Chan's sleeve and said, "Xiao Chan, where are grandma and the others?"

As soon as the words fell, a sound of wind was heard nearby, and then Xie Lin, who was supposed to be sleeping, appeared in front of them.

"Chanchan, you are back."

He came forward and held Xia Chan's hands the first moment.

Mrs. Xie immediately turned her head and avoided him with a smile on her face.

Xia Chan also smiled helplessly.

But looking at the worried look on the man in front of her, she didn't tease him too much.

She held his hand and could clearly feel that the calluses on his palms were thicker than in the past few days. She felt a little distressed.

"Are you exhausted these days?"

"I'm fine. Chanchan and sister-in-law have worked hard."

"Yes, indeed."

It should be Xia Chan's credit, and she did not refuse it at all.

She raised her eyebrows and curled the corners of her lips: "I brought you a lot of good things, do you want to see them now?"

"Let's wait till dawn. You should have a good rest first."

Xie Lin knew that his Chan Chan was very capable, and the things he brought back must be what they urgently needed.

But for Xia Chan's health, he still hoped that Xia Chan would have a good rest first.

Xia Chan hummed: "Where's that person? Are you going to wait until tomorrow to see the person I brought back?"

"people?"

Xie Lin looked at Xia Chan in confusion, not understanding what she was talking about.

Mrs. Xie, who had her back turned to the side, turned around when she heard Xia Chan's words, her eyes full of anticipation.

Xie Lin made a very bold guess from his sister-in-law's expression.

He looked at Xia Chan in shock.

“Cicada cicada!!”
