The widow becomes a fairy, and the time-traveling girl counterattacks and becomes the queen

Wang Xinyao opened the video recorded today and handed the phone to Zhao Haoxuan. When a voice came from the phone, Zhao Haoxuan was shocked and a panic expression appeared on his face!

Wang Xinyao immediately said, "That's the sound of a cell phone video. It's the best tool for obtaining evidence. If someone does something bad but denies it, this thing can reconstruct the entire process of their evil deeds!"

"This is really a magical thing!" After hearing Wang Xinyao's words, Zhao Haoxuan finally recovered from his shock.

As the video played, Zhao Haoxuan's face became more and more gloomy.

Wang Xinyao asked, "Do you know the man leading the group?" Zhao Haoxuan nodded and replied, "I do. He's one of my uncle's retainers. His name is Liu Yijian. He's probably around the seventh rank of Grandmaster. He's a cautious person and never does anything without confidence."

A seventh-grade Grandmaster? This was truly too dangerous! Recalling that moment, Wang Xinyao felt a wave of fear. The hairs on her body stood up, and her back was drenched in cold sweat. It was as if the Grim Reaper was hovering over her, just one step away from dragging her into the endless dark abyss.

When Zhao Haoxuan said this, his heart suddenly tightened, and an indescribable sense of tension immediately spread throughout his body. Before he even had time to think, he instinctively raised his hand and placed it on Wang Xinyao's shoulder.

His eyes anxiously scanned her body, afraid to miss any place that might be injured. He didn't relax until he was sure that the person in front of him was safe. But the next second, he suddenly seemed to lose his mind and quickly hugged Wang Xinyao tightly in his arms.

Wang Xinyao was clearly startled by Zhao Haoxuan's sudden action, and her delicate body trembled involuntarily. At the same time, a strange feeling spread through her body like an electric current, causing her cheeks to instantly flush.

This was the first time in her life that she was hugged so tightly by a man. Feeling his rapid breathing and hot body temperature, she clearly realized that Zhao Haoxuan's concern for her was not false.

Wang Xinyao's mind was blank at that moment. She felt as if she had fallen into a dream world. Everything around her became blurry, leaving only the man holding her tightly. His embrace was so warm that it seemed to dispel all the cold and fear. She quietly enjoyed this moment of peace, even forgetting how to respond.

However, as time passed, Wang Xinyao finally came to her senses. She began to realize that her current situation was somewhat awkward. After all, this was her first time having such intimate contact with a man. So, she gently moved her body, trying to break free from Zhao Haoxuan's arms, but he held her tighter, as if afraid that she would disappear if he let go.

Wang Xinyao had no choice but to reach out her hand and gently place it on Zhao Haoxuan's broad and strong back. She said in an extremely gentle and soothing voice, "I'm really fine, don't worry. Look, I'm still standing in front of you!"

Hearing this, Zhao Haoxuan's tense nerves instantly relaxed, but at the same time, a subtle blush quickly crept onto his cheeks. He lowered his head somewhat embarrassedly, and then, as if suddenly realizing something, he quickly let go of Wang Xinyao, whom he had been holding. Then, he took a deep breath, trying to calm his pounding heart as quickly as possible.

Zhao Haoxuan frowned slightly and said in a serious tone, "This man is unfathomable and scheming. Now that you've already met him, with his intelligence, you may not be able to deceive him. It seems that in the days ahead, we must be extremely vigilant."

"Fortunately, he currently doesn't know my true strength. As long as I don't reveal my whereabouts or he doesn't witness it with his own eyes, he probably won't report this to the emperor's uncle for the time being. Therefore, we still have time to prepare." A hint of determination flashed in Zhao Haoxuan's eyes.

Wang Xinyao nodded in agreement and then told Zhao Haoxuan about her experience with County Magistrate Luo Qing. When Zhao Haoxuan heard about the "well salt extraction method," he lost his composure and stared at Wang Xinyao in astonishment.

"Well salt extraction method?" Zhao Haoxuan muttered to himself in disbelief, his voice full of shock and surprise.

"That's right, it's the method of refining well salt!" Wang Xinyao nodded with a smile, took out the ancient book from her arms, and handed it to Zhao Haoxuan: "I also picked up this ancient book at that time. It records the method of refining well salt in detail."

Zhao Haoxuan excitedly took the ancient book and began to flip through it eagerly. Every page made his heart beat faster, and his eyes sparkled with excitement. The well salt extraction method meant that salt production and quality could be greatly improved, which was of great significance to the national economic development.

Zhao Haoxuan felt a little suspicious. He couldn't help but wonder, "How could this be such a coincidence? This magical object seems to be everywhere. I can just pick it up..." However, facing Wang Xinyao's words, he still chose to believe her. After all, he would believe everything Wang Xinyao said unconditionally.

"By the way, the county magistrate of Nanhu County is named Luo Qing. Have you ever heard of him?" Wang Xinyao's tone was as steady as Mount Tai.

"He is the grandson of the current empress dowager, my grandmother's brother!" Zhao Haoxuan replied.

No wonder a minor seventh-rank county magistrate spoke of meeting the emperor with such confidence, as if he could actually see him. He even dared to leave without the emperor's decree or imperial edict. It turned out that Luo Qing truly was a member of the imperial family.

Then, Wang Xinyao asked again: "So, what is your relationship with him?"

Zhao Haoxuan frowned slightly, lost in thought, and spoke slowly, "We used to have a good relationship. He was like a greedy little fox, often coming to the palace and always enjoying free food and drinks at my place. But things are different now. I'm no longer sure if there's anyone around me who truly follows me. After all, the Emperor's uncle is my father's younger brother, and they share the same mother. In terms of blood ties, Luo Qing is no different to me or him."

"Then what do you think are Luo Qing's chances of success when he goes to the capital to deal with the issue of well salt extraction?" Wang Xinyao asked again.

"Relatively speaking, my father is a wise ruler, and Luo Qing is smart. As long as he can meet my father in person, with his abilities and style of doing things, this matter will be 100% successful!" Zhao Haoxuan said after thinking for a moment.

Since the salt field issue was only a matter of time, the next step was to select the salt field manager! It was clear that no one from Xiejia Village was capable of such a job, and since she was a woman with so many other things to do, she didn't have the time or the convenience to go to the salt field to manage it. Wang Xinyao spoke again, "The salt field manager position is of utmost importance. Do you have a completely trustworthy candidate to recommend?"

"A completely trustworthy candidate?" Zhao Haoxuan frowned, lost in thought. "No one from my grandfather's family can be used. They're too sensitive and might be under constant surveillance. Oh, right? We could go find Zhou Yunxi, the son of the Minister of War. He was my study partner. I was able to escape death this time entirely thanks to him! He has a capable man named Zhou Shen under his command. He's both civil and military. The reason I was able to escape the capital and reach Nanhu County without anyone noticing was all thanks to him! Zhou Yunxi was loyal to Zhou Shen because he saved his life, and he knows everything about me!"

"Then how can we find him?" Wang Xinyao asked impatiently! "You just need to take my token and go to Yihongyuan in Nanhu County and find Mother Cui. She will help us connect with the person we want to see!" After saying this, Zhao Haoxuan pulled out a broken brush from his pocket and handed it to Wang Xinyao: "This brush was originally split into two. If the other person's brush can perfectly overlap with mine, then this person is someone we can trust."

Wang Xinyao nodded and took the brush. The material of the brush was good, no wonder it was kept as a keepsake. Since it was a broken brush, even if it had been in an accident, most people wouldn't worry about it. So she smiled and said, "Don't worry, I'll take care of it! Go to bed early, and don't forget to wash your feet. Washing your feet every day is good for improving your cultivation!"

After Zhao Haoxuan left, Wang Xinyao returned to her room. After closing the door, she was finally able to enter her ring space with peace of mind. The moment she realized she had narrowly escaped death, Wang Xinyao realized that this era was far more powerful than she had imagined.

While technology here is underdeveloped, food is scarce, and medical care is backward, the strength of the force here is immeasurable. The skills I once prided myself on at the police station are now even inferior to those of a rookie here. Even now, having reached the pinnacle of martial arts, I'm still only at the bottom of the heap. It seems that besides striving to make money, I also need to be able to protect my life!

Wang Xinyao stepped into the spiritual spring pool and immersed her entire body in it, hoping to remove all impurities from her body in order to quickly improve her cultivation.

As she expected, after soaking in the spiritual spring water for a quarter of an hour, Wang Xinyao felt refreshed and filled with strength. She emerged from the water and immediately began practicing the Grandmaster's techniques. As she practiced, the surrounding spiritual energy continuously gathered within her, and her aura continued to rise. She felt the powerful force surge within her, and finally, she successfully broke through to the First-Grandmaster realm.

At this moment, Zhao Haoxuan was soaking his feet in the room as instructed by Wang Xinyao. Suddenly, he felt a torrent of power surging in from his feet, pouring into his body like a rushing river. His spiritual energy also continued to soar like a rocket, and finally reached the realm of grandmaster like a volcanic eruption.

If Wang Xinyao were here, she would probably be so shocked that her jaw would drop, and she would exclaim repeatedly that this was simply a monster among monsters!
