Lu Qingheng's eyes lit up, and he immediately led his men to the lacquer tree forest.

As soon as they walked in, everyone's body began to become red, swollen, itchy and painful.

Just as Lu Qingheng was about to leave, she suddenly found some residual gravel on the ground. She picked it up and took a look, and her eyes lit up instantly.

Gold mine!

She stood up and immediately quickened her pace to rush inside.

When they finally passed through the lacquer forest, the scene in front of them shocked them: someone had lived here.

There is a mine next to it.

Lu Qingheng immediately entered the mine and was overjoyed. "It seems that there is always a gain after a loss. God has been kind to me."

Although I put so much effort into looking for Jiang Ningwan and still couldn't find her, finding the gold mine was so smooth!

Now I can make a great contribution in front of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!

"Set up camp right here and start digging!"

Afterwards, Lu Qingheng called all the other people over and stationed them outside the woods, hoping that the people who were mining in front might come back.

If they come back, we can catch them all in one fell swoop.

Take back the gold mines that have been dug out!

The team camped nearby, and with so many people, it was very eye-catching.

Fortunately, Fengyuan City is a remote area with few people coming and going.

But on the second day of their stay.

Mo Xuzi came to Fengyuan City to investigate the tragedy of the Wujue Sect, determined to find out who killed all the members of the Wujue Sect!

Every member of the Five Absolute Sect is a master. To be able to wipe them out, the enemy must have a large number of people!

I wanted to go to Tiandi Pavilion to see if there were any clues.

But before entering Fengyuan City, they discovered a place where a large number of people were stationed, which was really suspicious!

He came nearby, hid in the bushes and watched from a distance.

After watching for a whole day, I found that people came out of the woods from time to time, and it seemed that there was someone else inside.

Late at night, he lit some incense, and the night wind blew the incense into the camp. Within a cup of tea, everyone fell into a coma.

Mo Xuzi put on a veil and quietly entered the woods.

From a distance, I saw a mine inside and many houses built next to it. It seemed that people had lived here for at least a month.

Who are these people?

After he approached the house, he lit the incense again. After making sure that everyone in the house was asleep, he went into the rooms one by one to check.

I saw Lu Qingheng sleeping on the bed.

Weapons and gunpowder were also found in the storeroom.

He examined them carefully and found that these weapons were not common in Daning Kingdom. Instead, they looked more like weapons forged by Dayan.

After checking, he went into the mine again and was even more shocked.

This is a gold mine!

……

After the winter snow melts, the stream gurgles.

On a sunny day, Jiang Ningwan and others arrived in the north.

Along the way, you can indeed see many mines, people transporting and mining the ores, and there are troops everywhere.

But after entering the city, she found that it was no different from ordinary towns. Although not as prosperous as Kyoto, it was also very lively.

Many vendors from Dayan gathered here, and people were wearing all kinds of clothes, which was very novel.

And because there are not many people living in the north, the entire city is very large, with wide roads and sparsely populated houses.

"It's so lively." Jiang Ningwan looked around along the way.

Qin Shuangchi smiled and asked, "Do you want to go shopping first or go back and rest?"

"Go back and rest first."

Everyone is very tired after traveling for days.

The team then arrived at the Prince of Chu's Palace.

The Chu Palace in the north is several times larger than the Chu Palace in Kyoto City. It has few staff and seems a bit deserted.

When the King of Chu returned, everyone in the palace rushed to greet him.

"Welcome, Prince, Princess!"

Jiang Ningwan was slightly startled and turned to look at Qin Shuangchi, "Do they know me?"

Qin Shuangchi held her hand and said, "Of course I know."

A maid stepped forward quickly and saluted obediently, "Princess, your servant Xiang'er has the hot water ready. You can bathe and change clothes at any time."

"Shall I take you to your yard first?"

Jiang Ningwan nodded and followed him to a courtyard full of flowers and plants. There were plum blossoms planted by the pond, and there was a swing on the grass, exactly the same as the swing in the Prince of Chu's Mansion.

Xiang'er saw her stop and explained, "That was made by the prince himself."

"Before you came, I specially modified this courtyard according to the princess's preferences."

"Next door is the prince's courtyard. You can live wherever you want."

Hearing this, Jiang Ningwan nodded with satisfaction, "I'll live here, it's pretty good."

When I came in just now, I saw that the other yards were indeed bare, only here were flowers blooming and the scenery was pleasant.

Xiang'er took her into the room to bathe and change clothes, and brought out several sets of clothes for her to choose from.

They are all her favorite colors and styles.

After bathing and changing clothes, Xiang'er came and said, "Princess, the food is ready. The prince is waiting for you to eat."

"it is good."

When she came to the front hall, the table was filled with her favorite foods.

I'm really hungry.

At this time, Xiao Lan entered the room, "Your Majesty."

"The people watching in Fengyuan City reported back that Mo Xuzi has already headed towards Kyoto City."

Hearing this, Jiang Ningwan was slightly surprised, "Has he discovered the gold mine and Lu Qingheng?"

Xiao Lan nodded, "I've discovered it."

"Lu Qingheng is also very careless. He stationed thousands of people directly outside the gold mine forest. Mo Xuzi discovered it as soon as he arrived."

"We have made all the arrangements in Fengyuan City. Everything Mo Xuzi finds is harmful to the Lu family!"

Jiang Ningwan raised the corners of her lips slightly, and felt that the food smelled even better.

Qin Shuangchi nodded slightly, "Got it, call Commander Ren over."

Not long after, Ren Suhan arrived.

This was the second time Jiang Ningwan met him, the Northern Commander Ren Suhan.

"Your Highness, Princess!" Commander Ren saluted respectfully.

Jiang Ningwan put down her bowl and chopsticks, thinking that Ren Suhan probably didn't know that she was already on the pirate ship.

"Since you have something important to discuss, I'll step aside for now."

Qin Shuangchi held her arm and said, "It's okay. There's nothing you can't listen to."

"Commander Ren, we must be cautious when smelting the gold. Also, we must declare to the outside world that we are returning from Da Yan and inform the Da Yan border guards. We must have sufficient evidence and make sure no one discovers any flaws."

Ren Suhan nodded in agreement, "Don't worry, Your Majesty!"

Then Ren Suhan turned and left.

His attitude towards Qin Shuangchi was one of absolute loyalty and trust, and he seemed to have no doubts at all about what Jiang Ningwan heard.

"Want to go out for a walk after dinner?"

Jiang Ningwan nodded.

After dinner, Qin Shuangchi took her out. In order to better understand the customs and culture of the north, the two of them did not take a carriage but walked.

The people they met along the way would greet them warmly, "Prince, Princess."

Jiang Ningwan was a little surprised, "Why do they all know that I'm the princess?"

It was clearly her first time in the North.

Qin Shuangchi raised their tightly clasped hands and asked, "Will you not be able to tell from this?"

Jiang Ningwan chuckled. It seemed that the rumor that the King of Chu had a sweetheart in the north was indeed false.

Suddenly she felt someone staring at her from behind. Jiang Ningwan turned her head and looked, but saw nothing.

"What's wrong?" Qin Shuangchi asked with concern.

"Do you feel like someone is watching us?" Jiang Ningwan searched the street but found nothing suspicious.
