Chapter 196 Exposed, Quick Rescue
She looked around, and there were people peeking at her below, but there were also people who were completely focused on punching and ignored the commotion here.

But there was one person, who seemed to deliberately suppress his emotions, but still couldn't help but cast his flustered and timid eyes on Xu Yuan.

She tilted her head and asked Li Dashu in a low voice: "Did the person in the third and fifth rows on the left accompany you to transport food last time?"

Li Dashu found the person according to the location she said, and then nodded: "Go."

"I'll go first. You'll tell them that something happened during the last grain shipment and you need to ask them about something." After explaining to Li Dashu, Xu Yuan greeted Lu Zhou and walked out of the courtyard first.

When passing by Chang Zhu, she beckoned to Chang Zhu from behind, and then continued to walk out of the yard.

Chang Zhu waited until no one was paying attention, then quietly followed him out of the yard.

"Benefactor, what's the matter?" Chang Zhu walked up to Xu Yuan who was waiting outside.

"There will be something that needs your help." She walked to the other side, trying to avoid the eyes of people passing by, "Later, you should carefully watch the trainees there. If anyone reacts abnormally, you Just tell Li Dashu."

Chang Zhu nodded half-understanding, and then carefully entered the yard.

Li Dashu is gathering the people who transported food with him before to talk about these things.

He walked around behind Lu Zhou and continued to help him, but his eyes were fixed on those people.

After Li Dashu finished speaking what Xu Yuan explained, he quietly stepped aside, and followed him out of the yard.

Xu Yuan was waiting for him outside: "Is there anything unusual about that man?"

"It seems that he is much more flustered than others."

"Then just wait a little longer, it will show the horse's feet." The man didn't look calm.

Xu Yuan walked around the rockery outside, and saw Chang Zhu coming out of the yard with a vigilant expression on his face.

"How?" she asked.

"One person said he was going to the latrine, but I saw him let a pigeon out from the backyard." Chang Zhu carefully reported what he had just seen, "There should be a note with him."

"Where is he now?"

"It should be in the hut." Chang Zhu took out the hand hidden behind his back, which was a carrier pigeon, "Just now it flew up, and I took advantage of the man's inattention and shot it down with a slingshot."

"Not bad!" Xu Yuan's eyes were stained with a smile, "There is a reward!"

She detached the small bamboo tube containing the note from the pigeon's feet, poured the note out of it and opened it.

Four words were scrawled on it: "Exposed, quick rescue."

Xu Yuan pinched the piece of paper in her hands disdainfully, could she be someone like Zhao Yuanyi?Quick rescue, she will not kill and set fire.

"Let's go and find him." She walked into the courtyard holding a note, the man had already come out of the hut, and was still training with the team.

Li Dashu called him out from the team and threw the pigeon in front of his eyes: "Is this yours?"

The man was taken aback, his eyes widened: "What is this?"

Xu Yuan raised her eyebrows, her tone was very mocking: "You don't even know pigeons?"

The man's eyes trembled: "The pigeon...of course I know it, but it's not mine." He repeatedly shook his head in denial.

The people who were training next to him were all attracted by the movement here, stopped what they were doing, and fixed their eyes on this side.

Xu Yuan wanted to make an example of others, and didn't want to avoid these people from seeing them, so she talked about everything here.

"Is this yours?" She directly took out the note and spread it out in front of his eyes, quickly shook it, and squeezed it back into her hand.

The man was still shocked: "Girl, what are you talking about? What does quick rescue mean? I don't understand..."

Xu Yuan ignored him, held the note and passed Lu Zhou's eyes, and looked at him leisurely: "Mr. Lu, did you see what is written on the note?"

"Of course not, the girl is shaking too fast." Lu Zhou smiled.

"Then how do you see clearly?" Xu Yuan turned her gaze to that person, "Should I admire your good eyesight?"

"It's just that my eyes are brighter..." the man stammered, "I don't know what these are."

Xu Yuan's face turned cold: "Then you didn't eat or drink at that time, and when the whole family had no place to live, who gave you food and shelter, do you still know?"

The man's face paled instantly. When they were in the ruined temple, it was Xu Yuan who gave them the chance to eat and live, but he...

The people around had already understood what was going on, this person was a spy of another family.

Some of them were more familiar with this person, and they all looked at him in disbelief: "How could a bastard do such a thing?"

"You gave it, it's just fur! But what they gave me, it's money that can make our family live a good life." He seemed to have finally found the words to retort, "I want to let my family live a better life." Better, is that wrong?"

Xu Yuan sneered: "It's a better life... You should remember who gave you life to live until now!"

She didn't want to mention too much what she had given them, but this man's attitude really chilled her.

The yard was silent, and Lu Zhou could now see what was going on, and watched silently. Xu Yuan stood in the center and confronted the man, with an inexplicable aloofness.

"Do you think they'll come to rescue you?" Xu Yuan repacked the note in the small bamboo tube, "Chang Zhu, I'm looking for a carrier pigeon from Miss Wuyu."

She waited for Chang Zhu to bring the carrier pigeon, and then tied the paper tube back on, letting the carrier pigeon fly away.

"We'll wait and see if they will come to rescue you today!" Xu Yuanyang said, "Just keep doing what you have to do now!"

Everyone around put away their thoughts and started their own training again.

"Yuanyuan, why don't you go back and rest first." Li Dashu stepped forward to her and said, "I'll just watch here."

Xu Yuan nodded, she might hinder the training of these people here.

"Don't hold him back, let him do things normally, we will wait to see if they will come."

Li Dashu complied and let that person continue to join the training team, and the whole yard returned to normal.

When Xu Yuan returned to her room, Li Yin was still sitting at the desk practicing calligraphy. He was now working harder than before. He practiced calligraphy more and more every day, and no matter how much he persuaded him, he couldn't stop.

"Daughter-in-law, are you back?" He put down his pen to look at her, and when he looked up, he found Xu Yuan's expression was very tired, "What's wrong with you?"

He stood up and embraced Xu Yuan, and squeezed her hand only to find that her hand was completely cold.

Xu Yuan leaned on him relaxedly, letting him pull her away.

"Why is it so cold?" He took her to the edge of the bed and sat down, squeezing her hand to warm her up.

Xu Yuan broke free, wrapped her hands around his neck, and pressed her face against his chest: "Don't move, let me lean on for a while..."
