After entering the book, I emptied the warehouse of my foster mother's house to farm

Only now did Xu Xing fully understand what Jiang Hao meant by what he said to Yingtao.

"I saved you not out of kindness," she really saved her with a purpose, but Cherry's fate was like this and she couldn't escape it.

Since there is blood everywhere, there is no guarantee that other wild animals will not come here by smelling the scent, making this area an unsafe place.

Jiang Hao and Xu Xing hadn't slept all night and had been running back and forth during the day. Although they didn't say anything, they were already tired and hungry. The terrain in the mountains was complex, the forests were deep and dense, and there were dangers everywhere, so it was best to find some food before dark, fill your stomach, and get some shut-eye and rest.

The two walked about two miles in the opposite direction of where the beast dragged Cherry away, away from Lu Zhan's small building. They slowly looked around. The trees were lush, but the view below was wide, so any ferocious beasts would have nowhere to hide if they approached. This was a good place.

"Miss Jiang, you take a rest here. I'm going to go hunt a pheasant."

Jiang Hao looked around and nodded: "Wild rabbits are fine, I'm not picky."

Rabbits have a stronger smell than pheasants and are more difficult to handle, but Jianghao is not picky.

After Xu Xing responded, he disappeared into the forest.

Jiang Hao also felt that his body was a little overloaded, so he drank a few gulps of spiritual spring water before filling up his kettle. After resting for a while, he went to collect firewood.

Now she and Xu Xing are partners, dividing the work and cooperating with each other, and they don't have to worry about who does more and who does less.

They had gained a lot from this trip, and they would return to the county town after exploring Lu Zhan's secret room.

As for what happened later, that was Xu Xing's business, and she didn't have to get involved in it personally.

After a while, Xu Xing came back with a pheasant and a hare. The pheasant and hare were cleaned and stuck on two branches respectively.

Jiang Hao had already built a fire, and everyone took a branch and started roasting food.

"Salt."

Jiang Hao opened a bamboo tube, sprinkled salt evenly on the rabbit in his hand, and handed it to Xu Xing.

Xu Xing took the bamboo tube and looked at her with surprise: "You have prepared everything."

Jiang Hao smiled but didn't say anything. She was used to it.

What's more, it has space for storage and is not a burden to carry around.

It’s a pity that her soul was traveling across time and space. There were countless good things in the space of her ruby ​​ring, but unfortunately she couldn’t bring them all with her.

When Jiang Hao thought of this, he felt so heartbroken that blood was dripping from his mouth.

As the night deepened, a chill crept in unexpectedly. Even though I was sitting by the fire, my back couldn't help but feel a little chilly.

Jiang Hao subconsciously moved closer to the fire.

"Who do you think that prince is talking about?"

Since he was free anyway, Jiang Hao asked casually.

Xu Xing really didn't know, and he didn't dare to guess: "No matter who it is, if they form a clique for personal gain and embezzle the money from the national treasury, the emperor will not let them off easily once they are found out."

This matter is of great importance. If we do not impose severe punishment to serve as a warning to others, and everyone follows suit, what will happen?

The dethronement of the crown prince is an example.

Although there have always been voices speaking out for him saying that he was wronged, and even though his uncle has been reinstated by the emperor, the three words "deposed crown prince" are still a taboo between the monarch and his subjects.

When Xu Xing was young, he had met the deposed crown prince, who was a benevolent and open-minded prince who cared about the people.

Unfortunately……

Xu Xing's thoughts drifted away inexplicably, and when he came back to his senses, Jiang Hao had already torn off a rabbit leg and was eating it.

Jiang Hao saw him looking at her and felt a little embarrassed: "Um... I called you... but you didn't hear me..."
