Xuan Ming nodded and told her that he was going to meet someone who shouldn't be in the capital.His big hand completely held her little hand in his, sometimes squeezing it, sometimes rubbing it twice, as if he was playing with something interesting.

"Is it fun?" Yun Yige's hand was hot from his hold, and she shrank back, trying to withdraw her hand.

"Good, don't move."

Suddenly, Xuan Ming's warm breath approached, and before she could react, Xuan Ming's fiery kiss fell without any warning, across her collarbone and into the white snow.

He held her waist tightly, and the strength in his hands gradually increased, as if he wanted to knead her into his body.

Yun Yige was instinctively addicted, but when she realized that she was in a carriage and Zhan Yue was driving the carriage and there was only a curtain between them, she panicked and tried to push him away.

"Well……"

She wanted to speak, but Xuan Ming's lips blocked hers tightly, and she had no choice but to let herself sink into his offensive.

……

In a dilapidated courtyard outside the North City Gate, there was a locked thatched house in the backyard, and Bai Zhihan was curled up on the ground.

After burning the incense, she regained some consciousness, slowly opened her eyes, and looked around despite the pain in her neck.

She tried to stand up, but her head felt dizzy. She twisted her arm hard, and the pain made her clearer.

She heard footsteps at the door, clenched the sharp branch in her hand, and huddled in the corner.Did the person who kidnapped her come here to kill her?

But if it meant her life, when we met on the road just now, I could have killed her with one knife. Wouldn't it be easier?Why go to all the trouble to transport her to this thatched hut?

Huo Er pushed the door open and went in. Xuan Ming and Yun Yige were sitting in the courtyard. The people inside could not see the courtyard outside, but they could hear what was going on inside.

"Hero, let me go. Since you don't want the money, I can tell you everything I know. You can use the information I gave you to go to your master to claim credit. This information is much more valuable than my life."

"Oh? Let's talk about it."

Bai Zhihan frowned in thought, mentally sorting out the information she knew, and then said: "King Li is buying and selling girls, women and children, and giving them to officials and families to win over the courtiers."

Huo Er said calmly: "I know that King Li will choose it himself before giving it to other officials."

Yun Yige was listening outside, her eyebrows twitching. She knew about King Li's buying and selling of girls, but this was the first time she heard about the selling of children.Some wealthy families who cannot give birth to a legitimate son will buy a child from outside, adopt it into their own name, and record it in the family tree, just to prevent the concubine and concubine from ascending to the throne.

"Nothing else to say? Princess Li is nothing more than that..." Huo Er said contemptuously.

"If I say anything else, will your master let me go? Your master is Prince Rui?"

Bai Zhihan originally suspected that this person was from Pluto's Palace, but he didn't mention Princess Pluto at all, and he didn't ask her why he wanted to frame her. She couldn't help but suspect that his master was someone else.And the one who cares about her so much, or cares about her status as Princess Li, is King Li's archrival, King Rui.

"Then it depends on whether the information you provide is valuable."

Huo Er touched his chin. If she hadn't done too many outrageous things, he would still be quite interested in her. After all, she was one of the few women who wouldn't look frightened when she saw his face.Moreover, she is indeed smart and courageous.

Bai Zhihan didn't speak for a long time. Huo Erwai was impatient and stood up to leave. Bai Zhihan gritted her teeth and grabbed the corner of his clothes: "I said! Don't leave." Bai Zhihan's beautiful eyebrows frowned slightly. The message she was about to say was her life saver.

"King Li... opened a private mine."

Bai Zhihan didn't know about this top-secret matter. Once when she went to the study to deliver lotus seed soup to King Li, she heard a quarrel involving the words "coal mine, mining" and other words. She was so frightened that she clenched her plate tightly. , pursed her lips tightly, and left the study door with gentle steps.

"Li Wang opened a private mine? Where?" Huo Er raised his eyebrows, with a hint of surprise in his eyes, and subconsciously looked towards the yard outside the door.

Coal mines are extremely dangerous, and there have been many explosions. Beichu does not allow private mining, especially open-pit coal mines. Once discovered by the government, they will be immediately closed down.

However, private coal is extremely profitable, and there are always some desperate people who take risks to make money.

"I want to talk to your master about the rest."

Huo Er really didn't understand the matter of Wang Li's private coal business, and he couldn't make any judgments. He, a rough man in the military camp, gritted his teeth and continued: "If Princess Li has anything to say, just tell me, the master doesn't have time. "

"Isn't the person sitting outside the door your master?"

Huo Er stood up and gave her a look, cursing in his mind why he looked outside just now and exposed his master. After cursing a few words, he walked out with big steps and closed the doors and windows tightly.

Outside the door, Huo Er whispered a few words to Xuan Ming. Xuan Ming nodded and said that he heard it outside.

"My lord, Princess Li is really difficult to deal with. Even though she is elegant, beautiful, and weak, she can kill people without blinking an eye!" Huo Er was amazed.

"That's why I sent you here. An ordinary person wouldn't be able to subdue her."

After receiving Xuan Ming's praise, Huo Er's eyes lit up and he was so happy that he couldn't open his mouth from ear to ear. The prince was always very strict in the military camp. Today, when he spoke to him, he was not only pleasant but also praised him, which made him feel flattered.

He looked at the princess beside the prince again and scratched his head in embarrassment. He felt a little complacent after being praised.

"You caught me here, but you are so mysterious and hiding outside, what kind of hero do you think you are?!" Bai Zhihan snorted coldly from inside.

Xuan Ming did not comment, held Yun Yige's hand, pushed the door open and walked in: "Princess Li, you are quite confident."

"Prince? How could it be the prince?" Bai Zhihan looked at Xuan Ming in surprise, and then at Yun Yige beside him.

She originally thought she would see King Rui, and King Rui and King Li competed for the throne. Digging out King Li's secret from her was the fastest way. She could think of it, so why couldn't King Rui think of it?

Seemingly seeing what Bai Zhihan was thinking, Xuan Ming nodded and said, "Yes, King Rui sent people. However, the people sent by King Rui were all stopped by me. Before you framed my princess, Things can’t be revealed so lightly.”

"If you can't expose it lightly, what do you want to do, Prince? Or Princess Pluto, how do you want to retaliate against me?"

Bai Zhihan glared at Yunyi Ge resentfully: "Why do you have someone who loves you so much?"
