Hongliu couldn't figure it out and got up from the bed, put on her clothes, lit an oil lamp, dipped her fingers in water and wrote on the table. She couldn't touch the young master at all now.

Because of He Qiang's relationship, she was relatively free in the village. At least she could go out and walk around during the day.

"Who"

Hongliu looked at the person who jumped in from the window and asked in a low voice.

Zheng Xiang looked at the map on the table and was a little surprised that this martial maid was really not simple. No wonder Master Xie would praise this person for his intelligence.

"Miss Hongliu recognizes this thing."

How could this young master's personal belongings be in the hands of this person? Could it be that this person was a thief who sneaked into the third master's yard? But how could this person have the young master's personal belongings?

"Of course I recognize it. This is my young master's personal jade pendant. Why is it here with you? And who sent you?"

Hongliu was neither humble nor arrogant when she said this. If he hadn't known in advance that she was a maidservant, Zheng Xiang would have thought she was an official lady from some family.

"Of course it's a token given by Mr. Su. Miss Hongliu doesn't need to know the purpose of my coming here. You just need to tell me how to enter the back mountain."

"Houshan, are you here to investigate the iron ore?"

Iron ore, it turns out that there is iron ore in the back mountain. Some people are mining iron ore privately. You must know that this is a death penalty. Who has the courage to mine iron ore privately.

Several candidates quickly flashed through Zheng Xiang's mind. It seems that some people can't sit still, and it's no wonder that some people can't sit still. The Holy Emperor is now more and more convinced of Xiao Guifei's words, and the people's lives are miserable.

Even during this drought, no one from the imperial court came forward to provide relief. Zheng Xiang had no way of knowing whether someone had not heard the news about the drought, or whether someone had taken advantage of the money for disaster relief.

If this continues, Chen Kingdom will be in chaos sooner or later.

"Miss Hongliu, you must be an iron ore. Mining iron ore privately is a serious crime against the Nine Tribes. Who would have the guts to do such a thing."

Hong Liushi only knew three days ago that the mines in the back mountain were iron mines. She could recognize the iron mines because of her father.

"I'm sure it's an iron mine. Before my house was confiscated, my father was the minister of the Ministry of Industry. I don't know about iron mines. Other rough stone dads taught me how to know them.

To kill the nine clans, who can kill his nine clans? I advise you to go back and persuade your master. Don't think about being a loyal minister. That will only lead to a dead end and may even harm your family. "

When Hongliu said this, tears flashed in his eyes, as if he was thinking of something from the past.

"Thank you Miss Hongliu for your kindness, but some things must be done by someone, no matter what the result is, someone must do it.

Otherwise, why go into the court. "

Zheng Xiang's words made Hongliu clench her fists. She glared at Zheng Xiang. This is what men are like. There is no justice in the world, and officials should ask for orders for the people.

What about family? Is family so unimportant? Seeing the determination in Zheng Xiang's eyes, Hongliu moved her lips to retort and sneer, but in the end she said nothing.

I just dipped my fingers in water and drew a map on the table.

"Thank you Miss Hongliu."

Zheng Xiang said and walked towards the window. When he reached the window, he suddenly turned around and said to Hongliu

"Master Xing is a good official."

The moonlight followed the wind through the window and came to Hongliu. Her face had already been covered with tears.

A good official, so what if he was a good official, but he was executed by the emperor's order, and my mother committed suicide because she was unwilling to enter the Jiaofangsi.

If Mr. Xie hadn't found a way to take her and her sister away from Jiaofangsi, she would have no idea where she is now. She really still hates her father. Even if everyone says that her father is a good official, she can't help but hate her. .

Zheng Xiang walked towards the back mountain according to the map. Half an hour later, he came to the back mountain and looked at the heavily guarded foot of the mountain.

This place is indeed unusual. The weapons in the hands of those people are better than those distributed to the lord by the court.

Zheng Xiang was observing in secret without getting close. His target was the rough stone, the rough iron ore stone. But according to his observation, the rough stone had never left the mountain.

Why is this? Could it be that there is a workshop for making weapons in this mountain? If so, he doesn't need any iron ore, he just needs to get these knives.

After waiting for two hours, Zheng Xiang finally got an opportunity. One of the guards walked to a secluded place, probably to solve a personal problem.

A good knife. Zheng Xiang looked at the knife in his hand emitting the unique light of a cold weapon in the moonlight. How could a craftsman with such skills be in this mountain.

"Ah Hai, are you okay? It's not like that. Is it because you couldn't touch the girl during the day? You can't help it."

Along with the teasing words came the sound of someone's footsteps. Zheng Xiang didn't stay long and left the village under the moonlight. He gained a lot from this trip.

"Hurry up, chase him, that person is right in front, chase him quickly."

Zheng Xiang listened to the sound coming from behind and sped up to escape. Just when he was about to be caught up, a heavy rain struck. As the heavy rain came, the sky turned dark in an instant.

Zheng Xiang took this opportunity to escape the pursuit and ran in another direction. He ran for a day and a night. Looking at the dark clouds in the sky and smelling the water vapor in the air, Zheng Xiang began to feel uneasy.

The weather was not right. He was afraid that there would be continuous heavy rains and floods. At this time, he did not dare to delay running towards Yong'an Village. When he came to the top of a mountain, he looked at Yong'an Village at the foot of the mountain. .

When he thought he had finally caught up, the flood immediately submerged Yong'an Village. This incident prevented Zheng Xiang from going down the mountain because the mountain was landslide. All he could do was to ensure his own safety first.

"Xiaoyu, let Xiaonian go with her."

"Dad, dad, you're back, dad, hold your hands!"

Chen Yu was excited at first when he heard Zheng Xiang's hoarse voice. He turned his head and looked at his father, whose hands drooped unnaturally, and immediately started to panic.

"Uncle Nian, Uncle Nian, come quickly, dad, dad, dad's hand."

Zheng Xiang was exhausted at this time. He walked to the door of his house only by relying on his will. He was not only injured in his hands, but also had internal injuries. The landslide in the mountain forest could not be stopped by human power.

Even though he was a strong martial artist, he was pressed to the ground by the branches. He touched his chest and watched Chen Yu's figure change from one to two, then to countless.

Chen Yu's anxious shouts also came to his ears, but no matter how he listened, he couldn't hear clearly what she was shouting. What Zheng Xiang saw before he fainted was Chen Yu running towards where he was standing.

When Guo Nian heard that Zheng Xiang was back, he rushed out of the kitchen immediately. When he came out, he saw Zheng Xiang fainted on the ground, and Chen Yu who was so frightened that he was crying.

"Xiaoyu, what's going on? Don't cry. Let's take Uncle Xiang in first."

"Well, you take dad in first."

"Brother Zheng, when will you come with me? The head of my family is still waiting for someone to save him."
