Hearing Wenren Ruoxi's explanation, Liu Xinyue looked at her slightly reddened eyes and the old village head beside her, who also started to sympathize with her, and made a new judgement of her in his heart.

This woman felt sympathy for these people, and so she came here casually. It seemed like she was very familiar with it.

"Truly pitiful. Little girl, since they are living here now, as their masters, we should take good care of them."

Many people had died. old village head had also heard Wenren Ruoxi's words and thought of that scene, seeing the orphans and widows in front of him, which just so happened to pierce into his heart. He was very sad.

"Grandfather, the famine is over. Now that we have His Majesty the Emperor's control, I believe that such things will never happen again." With regards to Wenren Ruoxi making the old village head so emotional, Liu Xinyue started to become dissatisfied with her.

After pacifying the old village head for a while, Liu Xinyue looked at Wenren Ruoxi and continued to ask: "Then Miss Wenren, how did you get into the Liu Manor?"

"As far as I know, this Liu Palace of Dingshan Village is the country house of our Prime Minister. Without his orders, no one would have been able to enter."

What Liu Xinyue said was basically telling Wenren Ruoxi that if he could not take out the Prime Minister's orders, then the two of them were thieves, thieves!

Wenren Ruoxi originally thought that he would need to make a few detours with her before he could get to the main point. He didn't expect that he had only asked a single question, and was able to get straight to the point.

"Actually, it's quite a coincidence. When we arrived at the capital, we didn't expect our bodies to be stolen away again. We had no relatives in the capital, so we had nowhere to go." Wenren Ruoxi said half truthfully.

"Just when we were about to find a broken temple or something and find a way to stay the night, we were caught by two scoundrels."

"Right in... When I was almost humiliated by these two scoundrels, Prime Minister Liu appeared and saved us. "

After Liu Xinyue heard this, he could not help but sneer in his heart. How could Liu Minshan have such good intentions? was probably attracted by Wenren Ruoxi's beauty.

If Wenren Ruoxi had mentioned earlier that they had met by other means, then Liu Xinyue would have suspected something. However, this kind of matter where a hero saves a beauty was very suitable for Liu Minshan's style.

And looking at Wenren Ruoxi's expression, he was truly recalling what had happened at that time.

"Oh? Such a thing actually happened? " Liu Xinyue acted as though he was shocked and asked, "I've never heard it from my father before."

"I was the one who told Prime Minister Liu to keep it a secret. After all, this sort of thing concerns my reputation." How could his daughter know about the matter between Wenren Ruoxi and himself?

"That is indeed the case." Liu Xinyue nodded his head, and said: "Miss Wenren, please do not worry, this matter will not be known by anyone, we will not reveal it."

"I naturally know the character of the young miss." After Wenren Ruoxi heard this, he nodded and said.

"And then?" Seeing that Wenren Ruoxi did not say anything, and seemed to intend to pass, Liu Xinyue continued to ask.

"Later on, Prime Minister Liu found out about our situation and pitied us for being homeless. He gave us some money and a letter, telling us to temporarily stay at the Dingshan Village's Liu Estate." Wenren Ruoxi slowly said.

"Prime Minister Liu is indeed worthy of being known as a benevolent person. Meeting him is a blessing my mother and I have cultivated for our entire lives."

"That's right, Prime Minister Liu is truly a good person. If there were no one else, I'm afraid that we would not be able to sit here like this today." Madam Zhuge added.

Although he was dissatisfied with Liu Minshan making Wenren Ruoxi's stomach big, Madam Zhuge was still very grateful to the two who just escaped from the war-torn country and didn't know what to do, for Liu Minshan to be able to help them.

"To have such praise, I thank you on behalf of my father." After Liu Xinyue heard this, he smiled and said.

"Come, have a cup of tea in place of wine!"

With that, Liu Xinyue raised the teacup in his hand and said to Wenren Ruoxi and Madam Zhuge.

Seeing that, Wenren Ruoxi and Madam Zhuge immediately picked up their teacups, and laughed: "It should be us giving you a toast, young miss."

"Many thanks to First Miss for being able to set up a banquet to entertain us, we can't thank you enough!"

With that, Wenren Ruoxi and Madam Zhuge finished the tea in their teacups.

Seeing that, Liu Xinyue slowly took a sip of tea.

"I wonder if Miss Wenren can bring me the letter that my father gave you?" Liu Xinyue put down his teacup and said to Wenren Ruoxi.

"Eldest Miss doesn't believe us?" Hearing that, Wenren Ruoxi did not have any anger, but had a sad look and asked a question.

"It's not that I don't believe you. It's just that you all know that the neighbouring countries are currently in war and the people there are fleeing everywhere, which led to a lot of people coming from our country."

Hearing that, Liu Xinyue shook his head and explained, "I heard that a few days ago, the Crown Prince was ambushed by an assassin."

"Besides, the emperor has already ordered everyone to be on their guard against strangers. Everyone must be thoroughly investigated before they are allowed to leave."

After he finished speaking, Liu Xinyue smiled lightly at Wenren Ruoxi, and said: "If you don't want to take out the letter, then so be it."

"After all, it was given to you by my father. I believe that you wouldn't lie to me."

Hearing that, Wenren Ruoxi laughed, his body did not have any movements, it seemed like he did not plan to go and take the letter.

"First Miss has asked me so many questions, I wonder if you would allow me to ask you one too?" Wenren Ruoxi suddenly said.

"Sure, if there's anything you want to ask, just ask." After Liu Xinyue heard this, he knew that Wenren Ruoxi wanted to ask her for more information, so he nodded.

"I heard that the Liu Mansion only sends people to the capital when they offer sacrifices to their ancestors." Wenren Ruoxi looked at Liu Xinyue and asked slowly, "May I ask why First Miss is here today?"

"Ruoxi is currently living in the old dwelling and does not wish to live here for free. Thus, I would like to ask Eldest Miss if you can help out with something."

Because from the looks of it, she was a guest in the end and Liu Xinyue was the master.

"Actually, I have nothing to do after returning this time." After Liu Xinyue heard this, he casually said, "I just ate a snail here once, and suddenly wanted to try this taste again, so I came back."

"The house is also empty, so I came to take a look."

"Actually, I won't hide it from you. Madam He from the capital doesn't treat me well, so I want to take this opportunity to get some fresh air."
