After the divorce, the salted fish beauty took the script of the villain

Lan Ningzhen went to a small town not far from the mine to drink and wait for someone. It was almost dark when Xie Jue came to look for her. From a distance, she saw Lan Ningzhen joking with a woman in the tavern.After Xie Jue stopped for a moment, he concealed his gaze and walked over as if nothing had happened. When the woman saw him coming, she said goodbye to Lan Ningzhen with a smile and went to the backyard of the tavern. Lan Ningzhen took Xie Jue to sit down and poured him a drink. , "This is fruit wine. If you drink it, you won't get drunk. Give it a try."

This is a fruit produced in spring on the hills near the mine. It is very suitable for making wine and the alcohol content is not too high. Lan Ningzhen drank a few glasses of it. It was sweet and fragrant and she couldn’t wait to share it with Xie Jue.She has a habit of sharing good things with Xie Jue as long as she thinks they are good.

"Why did you run into town?"

"The armory is heavily guarded. I'm an outsider after all, so I can't stay too long. It would be nice to wander around here more, take in the scenery, and look for delicious food."

"Who was the woman just now?" Xie Jue tried a glass of fruit wine. As Lan Ningzhen said, it tasted excellent, refreshing and sweet. He couldn't help but drink a few more glasses.

"She is the owner of the tavern. She has been running here for several years. She usually receives people from the armory. If you want to know about the armory, she will tell you everything." Lan Ningzhen blinked, her tone was ambiguous, and she was not afraid of herself at all. Xie Jue would take offense to the joke he had just made with the woman. After all, with Xie Jue's temperament, it would be impossible for him to become jealous in his lifetime.

Her daughter's family runs a tavern in the town. Without some means and connections, it would be impossible. Xie Jue naturally knows that, and of course Lan Ningzhen will definitely get the news she wants.

Although he knew it well, he didn't point it out. Xie Jue drank a few more drinks. Seeing that he liked it, Lan Ningzhen asked for another pot. Xie Jue said, "It's getting dark soon, let's go back to the city early." "

"It's okay. We'll go back by carriage. The road won't be bumpy. It doesn't matter if we go back later. The people at the city gate will open the door when they see the token." Lan Ningzhenzhuangruo asked unintentionally, "What's going on in the mine?"

"There was a mining accident three days ago, and 16 people died. General Xiuri concealed it. The eldest prince was afraid that he knew the news, so he made things difficult for us and hoped to interfere with the mine. The prince has very strict control over the mine. In addition to His seal also needs the confirmation of the princess and General Hidetoshi. His seal needs the unanimous opinion of the counselors before it can be used. In addition, the princess and General Hidetoshi, when the prince is away, can only mobilize the resources of the armory if the three parties agree. "

When Lan Ningzhen heard how complicated it was, she raised her eyebrows and asked, "Is this what you suggested in the first place?"

"Yes." Xie Jue shot himself in the foot. He never expected that at that time, he thought that no matter how much the second prince trusted him, he would not be able to interfere with the mine. Unexpectedly, with Lan Ningzhen, the second prince could not interfere with the mine. Wang treated him as a member of the family.

"You can't rush this, take your time!" Lan Ningzhen said.

After the two were almost drunk, they set off back to Fox City. Lan Ningzhen had already thought that it would be late on the way back and the wind would be strong at night, so she specially took a carriage to block the cold wind.

She originally thought that returning to the city would be smooth sailing and nothing would happen, but Lan Ningzhen didn't expect that Xie Jue was drunk.

The fruit wine was sweet and not very high in alcohol content, but Xie Jue was probably in a restless mood and rarely drank too much. The wine was so strong that the heat made her cheeks turn red. Lan Ningzhen didn't care at first, but Xie Jue reached out and touched his face. , his eyes were obviously a little distracted, and he asked with a bit of anger, "Fang Chuning, why did you come to Beiman?"

Lan Ningzhen, "..."

The next chapter switches back to the perspective of Beijing.
