After a while, Huang Xing’er appeared in front of Huo Junhan and Shen Liu’an.

Shen Liu’an could tell how Huang Xing’er felt about Huo Junhan with just one look.

Huang Xing’er didn’t hide her thoughts at all. She stared at Huo Junhan with a burning gaze and bowed to him. “Greetings, Your Highness.”

Huo Junhan glanced at Huang Xing’er indifferently, his handsome face still cold. “What’s the matter?”

Huang Xing’er presented the exquisite wooden basket in her hand. She didn’t seem to be afraid of Huo Junhan’s cold temperament at all. She still looked at him with burning eyes. “Your Highness, this is the chicken soup that Xing’er personally made. Your Highness has worked hard for our Oriole Village recently. You’re my hero.”

Towards the end, Huang Xing’er’s tone was filled with passionate admiration and love.

Shen Liu’an narrowed his eyes slightly and took a closer look at Huang Xing’er.

It was hard to imagine that the girl in front of him, who grew up in a place like Oriole Village, would have such guts.

Compared to Huang Xing’er’s enthusiasm, Huo Junhan’s reaction was as cold as ice. “I understand, but I don’t like chicken soup. You can leave.”

After being rejected by Huo Junhan, Huang Xing’er’s expression clearly darkened, but it was only for a moment. A warm smile returned to her beautiful face. “1 understand. I’ll go back and make something else to send to Your Highness!”

With that, Huang Xing’er bowed to Huo Junhan again and turned to leave reluctantly.

After Huang Xing’er walked away, Shen Liu’an frowned and asked Huo Junhan, “Don’t tell me you can’t tell what that girl thinks of you.”

Looking at the girl, it shouldn’t be the first time she has fawned over Huo Junhan.

For some reason, he felt a little unhappy.

Huo Junhan looked at Shen Liu’an indifferently. “Huang Xing’er has been a reserved and shy person since she was young.”

Shen Liu’an was slightly stunned.

Yan Bei added, “General Shen, our lord has already investigated almost everyone in Oriole Village. Huang Xing’er used to be a reserved and shy person, and she had a fiance in another village near Oriole Mountain. However, after the lord came, Huang Xing’er canceled the engagement with her fiance. She was the one who cried, threw a tantrum, and forced him to cancel it.”

This didn’t seem like something a reserved and shy person would do.

Furthermore, Huang Xing’er had grown up in a small village like Oriole Village. She should care a lot about her reputation.

“According to our recent investigations, many people in this village are more or less different from before.” Yan Bei’s voice deepened. “His Highness suspects that most of the villagers in Oriole Village died three years ago.”

This sounded unbelievable.

Shen Liu’an rubbed his chin and pondered. “But I saw Huang Xing’er just now. She’s indeed alive, and there’s no evil aura on her.”

“This is the strange part of the matter. My lord’s judgment won’t be wrong,” Yan Bei said softly. “Therefore, this matter still needs to be investigated. General Shen, please keep a low profile. Before the matter is investigated clearly, be careful not to alert the enemy.”

Shen Liu’an understood Yan Bei’s concerns and nodded slowly.

At dusk, Shen Yaowei and Shen Yuyan returned to Village Chief Huang’s house.

The two of them had a bountiful harvest. They hunted two pheasants and picked a lot of wild fungi and green bamboo shoots.

At this moment, the village chief and Huang Xing’er were preparing dinner in the kitchen.

She happened to hear Shen Yaowei talking to Shen Liu’an and Shen Yuyan outside.

“Of these two chickens, one is to make soup for my father and brothers, and the other is to make soup for my Ninth Imperial Uncle..”
