"Yue Kui bullied me, so of course I want to take it back. As for Wan Hua Hui..." Fang Xu sneered, with a hint of coolness in his tone, "Those who killed them, do you think they will let me go? "
Only then did Bai Ji understand, and nodded repeatedly, "Madam, you did the right thing, so you should fight back."
Fang Xu curled his lips, twirling his earrings with his fingertips, and asked with a calm expression, "How is the matter at the gold mine handled?"
Hearing this, Bai Ji straightened his expression and whispered, "The people sent by slaves have already discovered the route and location. We are just waiting for Lord Shen to lead the troops to surround and suppress the two of them. We can take advantage of the chaos to get in and take as much as we can."
"Well done." Fang Xu nodded and glanced at her, "We have obtained the gold mine and refined it in batches. Be careful and don't let anyone notice anything strange."
Bai Ji nodded heavily, "Yes."

next day
Before dawn, the side door of the Hou Mansion was secretly opened.
Song Huixin was dressed simply and walked out of the house quickly with his luggage on his back.
Ye Ming stood outside and when he saw Mrs. Shizi coming out, he hurriedly handed over the reins in his hand.
Song Huixin raised his hand to take it, looked back behind him, and said softly, "It's cold, please don't give it away and go back quickly."
Fang Xu frowned slightly, and his tone became a little heavier, "Huixin, when you go to the Turks, don't be brave. You are going to help, don't risk your life."
"Yes, if you can't beat me, retreat quickly!" Granny Yuan's eyes were sore, and she held Song Huixin's hand with great reluctance, "My child... you must come back safely."
Song Huixin's heart felt hot, her eyes turned red, and she whispered, "Grandma, I have my own considerations in mind, and I must put safety first."
Liu Fanyin stood aside, holding the half-asleep Xie Yinyin in her arms, "Huixin, we are waiting for your return."
When Xie Yinyin heard her mother's words, she clenched her fists and said loudly, "Auntie, be safe!"
Song Huixin took her little hand and squeezed it gently, his eyes full of love, "When Auntie comes back, buy candy for Yinyin to eat."
"Okay!" Xie Yinyin burst into laughter and clapped his little hands vigorously.
The little girl smiled, and the atmosphere relaxed a bit, not as tense as before.
Song Huixin's eyes moved slightly, looking at Xie Li who was at the end, and opened his mouth, but he didn't know what to say.
Fang Xu noticed the little emotion between the two of them, pulled Granny Yuan aside who wanted to say more, and whispered, "Mother, let's go back and let Hui Xin and Xie Li talk more."
Granny Yuan wiped the corners of her eyes, knowing that she shouldn't continue to be a light bulb, so she nodded, "Huixin, you must remember what you say at home when you are outside."
Song Huixin hurriedly responded and said softly, "Grandma, don't worry, my grandson understands."
Fang Xu took two steps forward, took something out of his sleeve, put it into Song Huixin's hand, and warned softly, "If there is any danger, just throw this thing out and it will poison it. It won't be a problem."
Song Huixin was surprised. She lowered her eyes and looked at the small black pill in her hand, and nodded gently, "Thank you, mother."
Fang Xu curled his lips, with a little smile and warmth in his eyes, patted the back of her hand, turned around and helped Granny Yuan leave.
Liu Fanyin was also very understanding and walked away with Xie Yinyin in her arms.
Only Xie Li and Song Huixin were left.
"you……"
"you……"
They both spoke at the same time and were both startled.
Song Huixin blinked and whispered, "What do you want to say?"
Xie Li looked at her, eyes filled with emotions that she couldn't understand. "This trip is extremely dangerous. I said hello to Lian Yan. Someone will take care of you along the way and help you reach the Turks safely."
Song Huixin crossed his arms, raised his eyebrows and asked, "Besides, do you have nothing else to say to me?"
Xie Li paused and said in a muffled voice, "Have a safe journey."
"That's it?"
Xie Li slowly raised his eyes, his face was solemn, and his eyes were a little hurt, "It's only today that I feel regret in my heart."
Song Huixin was puzzled and asked with a frown, "What do you regret? You don't regret letting me join the court as a general, do you?"
Xie Li shook his head and lowered his long eyelashes, "I don't regret letting you enter the court. I only regret that I was so focused on books that I couldn't carry a sword and couldn't accompany you."
Song Huixin was stunned and stared at him in disbelief.
Xie Li's eyelashes trembled slightly and he was silent for a moment before whispering, "If I were as proficient in martial arts as Lian Yan, I would have gone with you today instead of being left behind by my wife like now. Worrying all day long.”
"You look like a resentful woman now." Song Huixin laughed out loud and joked, "You want to be with me, aren't you afraid of death?"
Xie Li pursed his lips, with no unnecessary expression on his face, "Even if I die, I should die with my wife."
Song Huixin's eyes flashed and his eye sockets heated up slightly.
"We can share the same quilt in life, but we must also die..."
Before Xie Li could finish his words, a soft body suddenly rushed into his arms.
Song Huixin grabbed his collar, frowning slightly, and stood on tiptoe to get closer to him.
When their lips touched, Song Huixin closed her eyes, her eyelashes trembling fiercely.
This was the first time she was sober and close to Xie Li.
With the fragrance lingering on the tip of her nose, Xie Li came back to her senses and his eyes fell on her face. Suddenly, he gently held her face with his palms and closed his eyes.
I don't know how long it took before the two separated.
Song Huixin's face was red and her heart was beating very fast. She gently pushed Xie Li's body away and murmured in a low voice, "No need to regret it, I just like you like this."
Xie Li's heart felt hot, his earlobes were red, and his face was on fire. He turned his head and said nothing.
"You're so embarrassed." Song Huixin found it funny, glanced at him, and said softly, "I'm leaving, please go back quickly."
"I'll watch you go." Xie Li stopped pretending to be dead, turned back to look at her, and said in a deep voice, "Be safe."
Song Huixin quickly mounted his horse, curled his lips and said with a smile, "Don't worry, I'm Song Fei's daughter."
Xie Li looked at her and said calmly, "Lower your head."
Song Huixin also obeyed and leaned down.
Xie Li took out an object from his arms and raised his hand to put it on for her.
Song Huixin lowered his eyes and looked at the jade pendant hanging around his neck, somewhat confused, "What is this?"
“I’ve been beaten for a long time.”
Hearing this, the blush that had just dissipated on Song Huixin's face rose again, and he responded vaguely, "I know... the time has come, let's go..."
After saying this, Song Huixin stopped looking at him, clamped his legs on the horse's belly, and ran towards the city gate.
Xie Li stood alone in front of the door, looking at the woman on horseback, secretly lost in thought.
In the woodshed, four heads stood in a row.
"Did they kiss? Did they kiss?" Granny Yuan was very excited, as if she had regained her youthful feeling.
Fang Xu chuckled helplessly and whispered, "Yes."
"I knew it!" Granny Yuan looked pleased and kept nodding her head, "Hui Xin, this kid has a lot of potential, he has a way of handling Xiao Li!"
Xie Yinyin, who was hanging on the window sill, turned her head and asked in a sweet voice, "Mom, why does auntie bite uncle?"
Granny Yuan and Fang Xu were both stunned, and slowly turned back to look at the little girl.
...When did this child hang here?
Liu Fanyin hurriedly hugged Xie Yinyin in her arms, covering her eyes with one hand and her mouth with the other. She smiled awkwardly at her grandmother and mother, "I'm sorry, I was so absorbed in watching that I forgot that I have a child..."
