Sturdy Countryside: Lord, Please Blow The Lamp

Fresh, freshly delivered wood is easy to split, so as long as there is freshly delivered wood, they will chop it out first, because it can save a lot of effort.

Therefore, the firewood he just chopped was naturally... wet.

Dongfang Yu: "..."

Why didn't anyone tell him if this was intentional?

"Wu Shiqi, you really don't take me seriously anymore." He said through gritted teeth.

"Okay, okay, it's just a bundle of firewood. As for making you so angry, Seventeen, you go to the woodshed to get dry firewood now." Xia Beibei patted Dongfang Yu's arm and said to Wu Shiqi ordered.

"Okay, Miss Jiu." Wu Shiqi responded, quickly picked up the ax and turned around to leave.

"Dongfang, what happened to Wu Qiyi?" Xia Beibei quickly asked Dongfang Yu after Wu Qiyi left.

Since Wu Shiqi came back, Dongfang Yu punished Wu Qiyi by chopping firewood for several hours on the grounds that he was not doing things well.

Dongfang Yu took a deep breath and said, "I'll talk to you later."

It is inconvenient to speak here, and the matter of Wu Qi cannot be explained clearly in one or two sentences.

"Yeah." Xia Beibei nodded.

…

"Wow, Miss Ninth, how do those hands of yours grow? Please teach me." Wu Shiqi's eyes were shining brightly as he looked at each of the lively buns that looked like real animals. When Xia Beibei was taken out of the pot, he almost clapped his hands and screamed.

This tiger is so lifelike, as are rabbits, hedgehogs, squirrels, etc., etc.

He has been the prince's cook for so many years, why doesn't he have this skill? Is it because he is not studious enough?

"You're born with it, you can't teach it." Xia Beibei shrugged.

"Steam the rest yourself and share it with the others."

With that said, she took two plates of beautiful animals and left the kitchen.

Wu Shiqi looked at Xia Beibei's leaving figure and narrowed his eyes.

…

"Scared, this is really... like!"

Dongfang Yu, who no longer accompanied Xia Beibei, but went directly to the study to start handling matters, was almost frightened when he saw a plate of fresh 'animals' placed in front of his eyes.

"Tell me about Wu Shiqi."

Hearing Xia Beibei's straightforward question, Dongfang Yu's face froze.

"Belle, if I said that guy Wu Shiqi betrayed me because he liked you, would you find it incredible?"

Dongfang Yu was actually rolling his eyes in his heart. No matter how much he thought, he could not imagine that the reason why that guy Wu Qi betrayed him was so simple.

Hearing this, Xia Beibei suddenly felt that she had lost her voice.

She loudly refuted Dongfang Yu's words in her heart, how could this be possible?

She and Wu Shiqi didn't have much conversation. At most, Wu Qiyi would hit her when she was cooking. Under such circumstances, would Wu Qiyi fall in love with her?

Are you kidding her?

However, she also knew that Dongfang Yu would not joke about such a thing.

If he could say this, it means that Wu Shiqi really had a rebellious heart against Dongfang Yu because of her and was taken advantage of.

"Wu Qi came back and told me about Wu Qi's situation. As for Dongfang Chi or Feng Mingtian, Wu Qi really spared no effort to find their traces and troops. However, he sent an assassin to assassinate Young Lord Beitang. I, and even Hua Qiangu, are all Wu Shiqi, but only for you, he has never done anything to hurt you."

When Dongfang Yu saw that she didn't speak, he knew that she recognized his words.

He spoke slowly, analyzing Xia Beibei and himself.

"Every time you go out, Shisan knows me. There are several people following you. I always thought it was Dongfang Chi or someone else. However, it was not until now that I realized that it was actually Wu Shiqi. The purpose Not to hurt you, just to protect you."

"But...who did he join forces with?" Xia Beibei believed what Dongfang Yu guessed, that Wu Shiqi liked her.

But, who can Wu Shiqi join forces with?

Feng Mingtian is now imprisoned, and right under their noses, Dongfang Chi is dead, and Dongfang Jiong is even more impossible. Dongfang Yu has already found out everything about him.

Wu Shiqi, who else can you collaborate with now?

"According to my analysis, it should be someone from Zifeng Hall." Dongfang Man said calmly.

"Then he just wants to kill you?" Xia Beibei asked doubtfully.

But as soon as he asked the question, he shook his head again.

"No, if he just wanted to kill you, why would he attack Young Lord Beitang?"

To say that he killed Hua Qiangu, it was because of the person who cooperated with Zifengtang, but the young master of Beitang was someone who could not be hit with eight poles. Did he need to kill him?

Hearing this, Dongfang Yu could only shake his head.

His intuition told him that Wu Shiqi was very conflicted.

Wu Shiqi is different from Dongfang Chi. Dongfang Chi has a hidden insidiousness. If you look closely, you can see some clues in his eyes.

But Wu Qiyi, what he saw in Wu Qiyi's eyes was complexity. He looked at the complexity of his heir apparent. Sometimes the look in his eyes was pure, and sometimes it was very complicated.

"Then does he really have his own power?" Xia Beibei asked.

Dongfang Yu nodded.

Wu Shiqi not only has his own power, but his power is not inferior to Dongfang Chi at all.

"If my prediction is correct, he has already sensed our suspicion of him. No matter how prudent Wu Qi is, he can't compete with his carefulness."

"Then he still..." Xia Beibei was speechless.

Now that he knows that he has been exposed, does that guy dare to come back?

"That's not right. You are not the kind of careful person. Why would you associate Wu Qi with me?"

If Xia Ziqing likes her, there is no need for Dongfang Yu to find out, because Xia Ziqing has already made it obvious enough.

But Wu Shiqi...she didn't feel anything at all. It was a strange thing that Dongfang Yu could find out, right?

"Because he just came back and asked the guards about you. This is very abnormal." Dongfang Yu replied.

As Dongfang Yu's subordinate, he didn't know to report to his master when he came back. Instead, he went to ask people about Bei Er's current situation. How abnormal was this?

Xia Beibei: "..."

Sure enough, it's a little abnormal, but there's nothing wrong with it.

She could only say that Dongfang Yu cared most about her affairs, so he noticed just such a slight abnormality.

"Why don't you talk to him," she suggested.
