Actually, Hua Yuan had liked people in his previous life.

At least, until today, Hua Yuan had always felt that she was deeply in love with Dugu Ye. That sort of paranoid madness had already reached a point where it seeped into his very bones.

Hua Yuan thought at that time, perhaps he would never be able to forget that person for the rest of his life.

Such deep love, and such deep hatred.

Now that she thought about it, Hua Yuan felt like she really didn't understand anything about love back then. Between him and Dugu Ye, it seemed more like he was using the name of love to weave a poisonous net, unceasingly luring himself into it.

When he was firmly stuck in the net like a spider's prey, unable to break free, he would ruthlessly tear himself apart. He couldn't care about anything!

Now that he thought about it again, he felt that it was somewhat laughable.

Now, even though he could feel it, he was scared and didn't dare to admit it. She was a coward!

Sui Qianying said, ”Iris, you are still young right now, so your feelings will always follow your heart. No matter what, we are your family, we will always support you.”

”Yes.”

On the other side of the western mountains, Huang Shipu woke up early in the morning and set off with a few yamen runners, as well as a dozen or so men including Jun Yu Xiu and his men.

In any case, Jun Yu Xiu had given the order that Huang Shipu wouldn't bring anyone from his department. However, if that was the case, the two of them might become suspicious.

Meanwhile, Jun Yu Xiu was playing chess with Jun Yu Qing.

Someone from the shadows reported, ”Lord Huang has already brought some men with him to head up the mountain.”

”Have you set off yet?”

”Yes.”

”Hur hur.”

The person who had reported the matter had already left.

A chess piece was resting on Jun Yu Qing's left hand, as she casually said: ”Sixth Brother, what kind of news do you think Huang Shipu will give us?”

The expression on Jun Yu Xiu's face was bland as he spoke. ”This …” Perhaps there will be some useful information? ”

”It must be useful information.”

At this time, Huang Shipu had already brought his men up the small path. Having led a comfortable life for so many years, when had he ever encountered something like this? Not to mention trekking over mountains and rivers to such a remote mountain. Huang Shipu felt that if he were to make this trip, he would have to throw at least a dozen catties of meat!

”Phew …” I can't do it anymore. I need a break, a break. I really can't walk anymore. ”

He said he didn't care about his image and sat down on the floor.

On the other hand, the yamen runners were not surprised by this. Seeing Huang Shipu's actions, everyone glanced at the other side and did not say anything. Obviously, they were waiting for him to rest before setting off.

The official court soldiers could not take it anymore. How long had it been since they left? Was he that tired? Do you know how important it is to delay time during a hasty march? If the two armies clashed, how important would it be to gather the topography of the land?

Was this the quality a county governor should have?

But no matter what, Huang Shipu was still an official. The people following him really couldn't control him much.

After resting for about an hour, he stood up again and pointed to a relatively normal place, ”Next, I'll take my runner along this road. You guys take that road, it'll be more convenient to check it out like this, won't it?”

It seemed that his words made a lot of sense. Now that the proposal was made, everyone stopped and listened to their discussion.

As the saying goes, a level 1 official could crush a person to death. Now, Huang Shipu was naturally the biggest official amongst these people. He had no choice but to listen to what he had to say.

In the mountains, when they parted ways, Huang Shipu found a small bamboo house that was hidden in the mountains as usual, and sat inside it. As for the rest of the officials, some of them were watching the soldiers that came with them, while others were sent to negotiate with the King of the Mountain.
