The First Auxiliary Road from the Imperial Examination

Chapter 1090: Mining

"Hmph." Sheng Yuan heard An Yu's question, slapped him on the back of his head, and continued to stroke the extremely unique knife case on the table in front of him.

"Are you still angry?" An Yu knew Sheng Yuan's temper and knew that she probably wouldn't be happy for a while, so he simply moved over, and playfully nudged her arm with his shoulder.

"Tsk." Sheng Yuan rolled his eyes and fiddled with the lock of the box.

Seeing that she tilted her head and ignored him, An Yu immediately increased his smile.

  Just as he was about to say something, Sheng Yuan suddenly turned his hand around and slammed the key in his hand onto the table with a loud "bang", then directly pinched the lock open with his hand!

"..."An Yu suddenly became quiet.

He had an illusion that what Sheng Yuan pinched just now was not the lock plate, but him!

Especially when Sheng Yuan opened the knife box, turned his head and showed him a mouthful of white teeth, he felt so cool!

"It's not that I don't allow you to fight to your heart's content. The posthouse is under the charge of the internal guards and the garrison. If those bandits really get into the posthouse... you can fight to your heart's content, but the internal guards and the garrison will be held accountable! We can't just be happy for ourselves and cause trouble for others, right?"

An Yu touched his neck and approached Sheng Yuan tentatively: "Since we have handed over the task of suppressing the island forces to Brother Lu, we can't go back on our word, right? Brother Lu didn't let us get involved because he was afraid that we might make mistakes... Although he knows nothing about our abilities and skills, he sent reinforcements at the risk of being impeached. How can we make things difficult for him, right?!"

"Look at how wonderful this Dahan Mountain is! Although the mountain is not very high, nor is it steep and difficult to walk on, it is famous! Before we left Beijing, there were often rumors that bandits were rampant here. Even my eldest brother wanted to come and suppress the bandits after hearing about it! Who would have thought that the so-called bandits here were actually the troops of various families, who stayed here to guard the iron and silver mines waiting for mining.

  Yes, who would have thought that this ordinary mountain in Zezhou Prefecture could hide such a treasure!

I just wonder if the nanny who wants to be the oriole behind the mantis will be surprised to see us, the group of people holding bows!"

An Yu's endless chatter finally annoyed Sheng Yuan. "What do you think about me using this Buchen knife to chop that nanny to death?"

When An Yu saw Sheng Yuan holding up this long sword that was two or three times larger than an ordinary Bu Chen sword and smiling at him, he was silent for a moment. After a moment, he asked in a low voice: "Yuan Jie'er, you are talking about chopping off that nanny, right?"

"Can I chop you down? Is it because you talk too much, or because you have no tact? Is it because you are on the side of outsiders, or because you and Xiaoyao teamed up to bring me here?!" Sheng Yuan retracted her fake smile and glared at him unhappily.

  An Yu, who had been avoiding the important issues, realized after hearing this that he had to face the crux of the problem!

"Yuan Jie'er, I raise my hand to swear. It's not that I don't trust you, but my father told me not to let you stand under a dangerous wall! If I put you in danger, no matter if you are injured or not, he will make you divorce me after returning to Beijing!

"Yuan Jie'er! It's not that I don't want to tell you the truth, it's just that we have our father's military supervisor here! If I don't keep my mouth shut and tell you what he has entrusted to me, he will skin me alive!"

An Yu chose to betray his father-in-law without hesitation.

"..." Sheng Yuan, who originally just wanted to teach this guy a lesson, didn't expect that her father was involved here, and was suddenly speechless.

When An Yu saw that Sheng Yuan was not going to beat him, he was not sure whether he was going to let him go or go back to settle the score with him. He could not help scratching his head and wanted to ask more questions.

Without waiting for words, Xiaoyao took the letter and hurried up to report: "Miss, that nanny really thought that the inner guards had taken over the Dahan Mountain Mine, and will soon bring people to rob the mine!"
