First break up the relationship, then get rich, I can choose any handsome man in the world

The officers who had been waiting on the side immediately tied Ye Shian and his daughter to the cross upon receiving the order.

In the critical moment, Ye Shian thought of a solution: "I want to see the young marquis."

Tian Yong raised his hand slightly, and the officers let go of the two men and stepped aside. Ye Shian said again: "I want to see the young marquis."

Tian Yong turned sideways and made a gesture to Ye Shian. Ye Shian turned back to look at Yu Xiuying, who also looked at her worriedly.

In the next room, Lu Jinghui was making tea. He was as leisurely as if he was in his own yard. He raised his hand and motioned Ye Shi to sit down.

Ye Shian walked over and sat down next to him.

Lu Jinghui poured the brewed tea into the cup and then personally brought it to Ye Shian.

Then Lu Jinghui motioned Ye Shian to try it.

The tea had just been brewed and was still hot. How could it be possible to drink it? Ye Shian said nothing and did not touch the cup.

Lu Jinghui was not angry. He picked up the watermelon on the table and took a bite.

"This watermelon is good. It is the best watermelon I have ever tasted."

"If you like, eat more."

Lu Jinghui nodded: "Don't you want to eat?"

"Oh, you eat it every day, so you must be tired of it."

"But I advise you to eat something. After all, you don't have many days left to live."

Ye Shian glanced at Xigua, then turned his gaze to Lu Jinghui: "My Lord, if you have anything to say, just say it."

Lu Jinghui waved his hand: "Well, I have nothing to say. But you, do you have something to say to me?"

Ye Shian looked at Lu Jinghui steadily: "What does the Marquis want to hear?"

"You know."

"You know I didn't kill him."

Lu Jinghui waved his hand: "This is not important."

This is not important...

My life is not important to you, but it is important to me...

"I am a simple-minded woman, so please enlighten me, young marquis."

Lu Jinghui threw the melon rind into the plate and frowned as he looked at his sticky hands. Ye Shian picked up the towel on the table and put it in Lu Jinghui's hand.

Lu Jinghui wiped his hands slowly and methodically.

“You are good at farming.”

“Many country people know how to farm.”

“But there are not many people who can grow high-yield crops.”

“With the seeds, anyone can do it.”

"Ah."

"Can country folks also grow those strange crops of yours?"

Finally getting to the point.

"Anyone can do it if they have the seeds."

Picking up the tea in front of him, Lu Jinghui took a sip, put it down, stared at Ye Shian and said, "I am curious about where you got so many strange seeds."

Ye Shian lowered his head, picked up the teacup on the table, stared at the cup in his hand and refused to speak.

Seeing that she was reluctant to speak, Lu Jinghui began to make promises.

"I am just curious. If you have cultivated a high-yield crop, it would not be so surprising. However, there are too many crops in your field that we do not have in the Great Abyss."

Originally, he planned to kill all the members of the Ye family after collecting the grain, but the cart of crops that was pulled over was truly amazing.

Although they are all cucumbers, the cucumbers from her fields are crisp and refreshing, and have a unique cucumber fragrance.

Not only cucumbers, but also pumpkins, eggplants, and potatoes, all of which grow particularly well and taste different from the local ones. They are clearly not the same as the local ones.

There were also beans and peppers, crops he had never heard of.

All of this was so suspicious that it really aroused Lu Jinghui's curiosity.

Lu Jinghui asked someone to check and found out that the mother and daughter of the Ye family fled from Huainan City, which is located in the southern part of Dayuan State. There are no special crops there.

So where did Ye Shian get these seeds?

"What, can't you say it?"

Ye Shian didn't say anything. She just wanted to whet Lu Jinghui's appetite and take the opportunity to rescue herself and her mother from the predicament.

"If you can tell me something, I am willing to persuade the county magistrate to investigate it thoroughly. I believe that if you didn't kill anyone, they will be able to find out."

There was no change on Ye Shian's face, but he rolled his eyes at Lu Jinghui in his heart.

Even a three-year-old child couldn't be fooled by such words.

"Where did you get these seeds?"

Seeing that Ye Shian didn't say anything, he immediately changed his strategy.

"In fact, I am not asking this for myself. I am destined to have no worries about food and clothing throughout my life, but the common people..."

"Although the king of our Dayuan Kingdom is diligent and loves his people, there are disasters everywhere. There are powerful enemies outside and disasters inside. Although your majesty has tried his best to save the country, he is ultimately defeated by reality. The national treasury and granaries are in urgent need of help. As ministers, we are willing but unable to do anything."

"Hey, if these crops in your hands can be planted on a large scale, I believe that the people of Dayuan will soon be able to live a good life, at least they won't have to starve."

"Our soldiers on the front line don't have to go hungry to fight against foreign enemies."

Lu Jinghui spoke passionately, but Ye Shian listened calmly.

She felt that Lu Jinghui was not a good person. She and her mother were put in jail, and Ye Shian was willing to use his own life as a guarantee. This was definitely related to Lu Jinghui.

The promise he made to her just now was full of loopholes. It was obvious that he was trying to trick her into telling him everything. Once she told him everything, she would probably die.

But she didn't understand. It was impossible for Lu Jinghui not to know that she had a close relationship with Mr. Wei, but why did he still do this?

Aren't you afraid of offending Elder Wei? The Wei family is a noble family, even the Marquis's Mansion has to show some courtesy.

Are they political enemies?

Ye Shian was shocked. If they were really political enemies, then he would be doomed.

Lu Jinghui believed that she was Wei Lao's person, and killing her would be equivalent to weakening Wei Lao's power.

Seeing that Ye Shian didn't say anything, a flash of murderous intent flashed across Lu Jinghui's eyes.

"Miss Shian!"

Ye Shian was immediately brought out of his thoughts by the sudden call.

"Young Marquis, if I tell you, will you let me and my mother go?"

She didn't want to follow Lu Jinghui's way, she wanted to bring things to the surface.

"Whether to arrest you or not is not up to me to decide."

"So the young marquis is a man without real power?"

Lu Jinghui choked and subconsciously glared at Ye Shian. Realizing that he had not controlled his emotions, he lowered his head and refilled himself with another cup of tea.

"I don't want to die, and I don't want my mother to die. If what I know can save my mother and I's lives, I'm willing to tell you."

The implication was that since Lu Jinghui could not save them and their daughter, she would not tell Lu Jinghui.

"In fact, it is not difficult to save you and your daughter. It is not impossible for me to save them. It depends on whether what you say can satisfy me."

Haha, I told you bang bang bang, if you don’t keep your word, can’t you still kill us mother and daughter?

"What does the young marquis want to hear?"

"You know, those seeds, how you got them."

"Will you believe me, young marquis?"

"As long as you tell the truth, I will believe it."

Ye Shian sighed: "You won't believe me even if I tell you."

"explain."

Lu Jinghui was already getting a little impatient. This girl kept going back and forth and just refused to get to the point.
