Mu Yan snorted coldly, it was not for nothing that she hated driving at night.

Every time she walked at night, she always felt like something was following her.

She found that these ancient people always liked to move at night.

Fortunately, there is no surveillance in this era, otherwise we will catch the current situation immediately.

"Are you sure you will leave Longcheng in five days?"

Ruan Jing let out a long sigh, "Yes, I'm destined to go back when Brother Yu arrives." Suddenly she looked sarcastic, "The old fox is worried about me staying here too long after all."

Mu Yan's eyes sank slightly, "What are you going to do after you go back?"

Ruan Jing will definitely be targeted by many forces when she returns this time. If she dares to leak any flaws, the enemy will kill her in an instant.

Ruan Jing had a relaxed look on his face, without any nervousness at all.

"The reason why this prince is alive today is not due to luck. I will kill anyone who dares to come."

"It's you. During the day, you were in tit-for-tat with the county guard. She will definitely find a way to tell the prime minister that this time you are completely exposed to those people."

How could Mu Yan not know that her move today was a dangerous move, and if something went wrong, she would die even worse than Ruan Jing.

"Wouldn't you be happier if the chess pieces were exposed to those people's view?"

After hearing this, Ruan Jing felt a headache. It was true to say that she treated Mu Yan as a chess piece at first.

But now every step she takes goes against the direction she planned.

At first, he just wanted Mu Yan to sit as county magistrate and make noise from time to time.

Unexpectedly, this man spent a lot of money to build his reputation, and even acted upright, directly offending the prime minister.

She herself chose a more difficult path than a chess piece.

Ruan Jing lowered his voice, "Is it worth it for you?"

If she wants to rise through the ranks and reach a high position, then she can save her life and one day be able to go to Fucheng, so why bother taking such big risks.

Mu Yan naturally knew what she meant, but one's life was not worth being bold.

"There is no value or not, only willingness or not."

Ruan Jing frowned, "If you want to marry Ruan Yu, wouldn't it be safer for you to choose the first path? As long as you can overcome your mother and father, she will not object to you being together."

Mu Yan took a deep breath, and the icy cold wind instantly entered her lungs, making her shiver.

"You are wrong about one thing, I am not doing it for Ruan Yu, just for myself.

Which girl in this world has no ambition and no idea of ​​​​showing her ambitions? Now that she has done it, don't say who she did it for.

The young master is very good. Everything I did has nothing to do with him. There is no need for him to feel unreasonable guilt because of what I did. "

What she did was not kidnap an innocent person for moral reasons.

Just like she didn't buy a house because of who she was with, doesn't it mean she wouldn't have to buy a house if she wasn't with someone?

Ruan Jing was a little puzzled. This was the first time she heard such a fallacy. She was not a person who liked to delve into things.

Mu Yan has an idea, and she can't control her thoughts.

"I don't care if you entrust Huai'an to me. What about Ruan Yu? The term of county magistrate is three years, and Ruan Yu can't wait three years."

Thinking of his younger brother Ruan Jing still makes me feel a little distressed.

This time when I go back, my parents and father will definitely marry off my younger brother before the Queen asks for marriage.

The Ruan family has no precedent of marrying into the royal family, not before, and certainly not now.

Mu Yan clenched his fists, a fierce look flashed in his eyes, "I will go to Fucheng within a year."

For a small county magistrate to come to Fucheng within a year is a fantasy and an unprecedented thing.

Seeing Mu Yan's resolute attitude, Ruan Jing sighed, it doesn't matter, he only has such a friend in his life.

"A gentleman makes a promise, and I will help you guard it for one year." Ruan Jing was already in trouble in Fucheng, and being able to guard it for one year was already his limit.

"Thank you."

Mu Yan solemnly thanked him.

After so many things, Mu Yan truly accepted this friend. Whether he called her cold or unkind, only he could understand the deep meaning.

Ruan Jing also noticed the change in Mu Yan's attitude and looked at her with a half-smile. Only now did she realize that there were people in the world who were more difficult to get into than her.

Although Miss Yan is always calm and composed on weekdays, never loses her temper with others, and treats others with humility and politeness, it is difficult to get along with people like this.

She doesn’t know how her stupid brother got into her heart.

Ruan Jing took out two bottles of wine from somewhere and threw one to Mu Yan.

"Come on, don't go home until you get drunk tonight."

After saying that, he took a big gulp of the strong drink. The cold winter and the strong drink were a perfect match.

The corner of Mu Yan's mouth couldn't help but twitch, and she was worried about her stomach when she looked at the bottle of wine.

She couldn't help but wonder, if people in this era were addicted to alcohol, wouldn't they get stomach problems?
Thinking of this, Mu Yan didn't hesitate to drink strong wine.

"You were so ruthless today. You have maimed my handsome face. What should I do if Brother Yu dislikes me?"

Although she is informal, she also pays attention to her appearance.

Mu Yan glanced at her with disgust and exposed her mercilessly.

"I was very careful when I started. I didn't hurt you at all. Besides, we applied medicine in advance. How could it really hurt you?"

Ruan Jing took a sip of wine and said leisurely: "That's right. We made a lot of money today. The county governor will probably be pissed to death."

Mu Yan suddenly stood up, walked to her and stretched out his hand.

Ruan Jing was puzzled, "What?"

Mu Yan rolled his eyes.

"You have a share, and your subordinates beat Su Jishan today. She is still lying on the bed. You have to compensate for mental damages. The most important thing is that you scolded me several times today."

Ruan Jing's eyes widened for a moment, and she realized that the account could still be calculated like this. What else was mental damage compensation?
She held the wine bottle and refused decisively.

"No, why should I give it to you after my hard work? Also, you didn't tell Su Jishan in advance, so he was beaten in vain. You can't blame me."

Mu Yanpi smiled but said, "You are really thick-skinned. I don't care about Su Jishan's affairs. It's your fault that you changed your strategy without notifying me in advance."

She was bound to get at least half of the silver from Ruan Jing today. Don't think she didn't see there were gold bars in the box.

Ruan Jing was unconvinced, "People have to learn to be flexible. Strategies are always changing. You can't be so stubborn."

This guy was trying to steal her money again, which she absolutely couldn't accept.

Mu Yan sneered, "If you don't give it to me, don't blame me for telling you everything about how you deceived the young master."

If she can't get money, she won't believe it.

As expected, Ruan Jing was afraid of this and immediately picked up the box behind him and stuffed it into Mu Yan's arms.

"I'm afraid of you. You've threatened me eight hundred times with one thing. Now let's go. I'm going to meet Brother Yu to have a drink and enjoy the snow."

Looking at Ruan Jing's leaving figure, Mu Yan couldn't help but laugh. He had obviously planned to give it to her, yet he was so stubborn.

Could this be inherited from the Ruan family?

She couldn't wait to open the box and couldn't put it down and counted the banknotes inside over and over again.

I really wish I could have the opportunity to make money after being beaten like this more often.

Her husband Ben finally took another step forward.
