Chapter 311

The cave was quiet. The spiders were diligently perfecting their webs at the entrance of the cave. Sometimes a large flying insect would rush over and damage the webs. Sometimes the wind would blow the webs and the spiders would patiently crawl over and continue to weave.

The people in the cave had nothing to do, so they sat there and watched the spiders weave their webs. After watching for a while, Grand Elder Ye sighed with emotion, "I always thought that after the spiders weave their webs, they would just sit there and wait for their prey. It turns out that there are so many troublesome things to do. Why don't we move into the cave and the webs will be damaged less?"

Tian Miaowen supported herself with one hand and sat sideways. After a long time, she felt tired. Seeing that Ye Xiaotian was bored and still had the mood to observe the spider webs, she was angry. She didn't wait for him to invite her. She took the initiative to move forward and leaned her body on his shoulder. This saved her a lot of energy.

Ye Xiaotian was a little surprised, but he didn't even turn his head. Who knew if this girl would be happy or angry, or what kind of tricks she would have?

In Tian Miaowen's subconscious mind, he had seen the most inconspicuous places. What was so great about leaning on his shoulder? Ah, this bastard actually didn't turn his head. Was he pretending not to know? Until she leaned on Ye Xiaotian's shoulder and heard his accelerated heartbeat, she was satisfied.

Miss Tian took the initiative to lean on him. In fact, she was also a little embarrassed. But after sitting for so long, her small waist was about to break. The rock wall was cold and wet, so it was not easy to lean on. It was still Ye Xiaotian's shoulder that was more comfortable.

She cleared her throat and continued Ye Xiaotian's words to cover up her embarrassment, "Some spiders weave in the forest, some weave under the eaves, and some weave in the house. The webs in the forest are damaged and often need to be repaired, but they can eat dragonflies, cicadas, longhorn beetles and other delicious food.

The webs under the eaves will not be damaged by the wind and rain. It is relatively safe, but it can only catch insects such as moths and flies. The webs on the indoor ceiling will not be damaged except for the annual cleaning. It is the most comfortable, but it can only eat small mosquitoes. "

Ye Xiaotian agreed, "That's right! Life is like this. Those who are not willing to experience any risks and hardships, although safe, will not have great achievements. Those who are often exposed to risks, once they gain something, their gains will be great. They are no different from spiders! "

Tian Miaowen casually recited, "When danger is near, there will be many people; when danger is far, there will be few. But the world is marvelous, beautiful, and extraordinary, often because it is dangerous and remote, and people rarely reach it. Therefore, it is impossible for those who are not ambitious to reach it. "

Ye Xiaotian turned his head. Tian Miaowen's beautiful face, which had the power to turn all living things upside down, was right in front of him. However, what Ye Xiaotian felt at this moment was not the attraction of a beautiful woman, but the wisdom and intelligence in Tian Miaowen's heart. The two of them looked at each other and smiled. They actually felt a sense of appreciation for each other.

Tian Miaowen turned to look at the entrance of the cave and sighed faintly. "But some risks and hardships should have been avoided. I don't know what bad luck I have, but every time I meet you, I will be in big trouble. "

Ye Xiaotian sternly said, "Miss, food can be eaten indiscriminately, but words cannot be spoken indiscriminately. You should say that every time you meet with trouble, I am the one who comes to save you. I am the benefactor in your life, not someone who brings disaster to you. "

"Is that so?" Tian Miaowen asked in her heart as she curled her lips.

Ye Xiaotian said, "Fate, fate. Fate is decided by the heavens. Luck is born by oneself. Life was something one was born with and could not be changed. Luck is a person's journey. How to walk, how to choose, it is all in your mind. Miss, you must not blame your fate on me. Little Tian cannot take it. "

Ye Xiaotian's half-joking words immediately moved Tian Miaowen. Thinking about it carefully, Ye Xiaotian's words seemed to make a lot of sense. The last time she went to Hulu County, she encountered danger because she was curious. She wanted to see how a small Warden like Ye Xiaotian could play around with County Magistrate Xu and Register Wang. If she didn't go, would she be in danger?

This time, if she didn't want to plot against Ye Xiaotian and provoke the hatred between Ye Xiaotian and Zhan Boxiong, would she be chased for no reason? Fate is decided by the heavens. Luck is born by oneself. It seemed that it was true. But …

Tian Miaowen felt that her clear thoughts were suddenly a little confused. Why did I encounter danger twice because I had designs on him? Did my bad luck really have nothing to do with him? Why did I get into trouble every time I had designs on him?

For a moment, Miss Tian couldn't help but let her imagination run wild. She just leaned on Ye Xiaotian, breathing softly and sweetly. Her pretty eyes were slightly closed as if she had fallen asleep. No one would know that she was thinking about a lot of things …

…

Zhan Boxiong and his men searched the mountain until it was dark, but there was still no sign of Ye Xiaotian. They could only return to the Zhan Family Fort. In the Zhan Family's territory, there was such a large group of nameless killers. The Tian family and Ye Xiaotian were not idiots. Even if they didn't understand why he did this, they would guess that it must have something to do with him.

However, there was no evidence after all, and his remedial measures were very appropriate. The Tian family was not the same as before. They probably wouldn't punish him with groundless charges. As for Ye Xiaotian, he had just occupied the Yang Family's land. He still had a lot of things to take care of.

Would the Four Heavenly Kings tolerate him occupying Shi Qian's Yang Family to expand his power? Would the court sit back and watch him start a war and seize the land of a chieftain recognized by the court? And no matter what, Ning 'er was a member of the Zhan Family. Since Ye Xiaotian didn't have any evidence and wasn't the one being hunted, there was no reason for him to use this matter to cause trouble.

Thinking of this, Zhan Boxiong's uneasy mood calmed down a little. At this time, Zhan Ning 'er rushed to the front hall. The Zhan Family Fort had sent out so many people. Even if others intentionally blocked the news, how could she not feel it?

"Uncle, what happened in the fort? Why did they send out so many people?"

Zhan Boxiong quickly changed his expression and laughed. "It's nothing, it's nothing. There's a group of bandits that were surrounded elsewhere, and they actually escaped into our Zhan family's territory. They're burning, killing, and looting. How preposterous!"

When Zhan Ning 'er heard this, her willowy eyebrows instantly rose. "There's such a thing? Uncle, leave this matter to me. If they dare to cause trouble in our Zhan Family, I'll make sure they don't return! "

Zhan Boxiong said, "Hey! Ning 'er, you're a girl. It's not proper for you to wield your spear and stick all day long. It's not like all the men in our Zhan Family are dead. Do we need a girl like you to fight in the front lines? Hurry and go back to the back residence. Learn to knit and sewing during this period of time. You have to act like a girl. "

Zhan Ning 'er's expression turned cold. Her voice hardened. "Uncle, I don't want to marry to Bozhou!"

Zhan Boxiong glared at her. "A girl's marriage is up to you to decide? The second wife of Yang Tian Wang, that's a noble status. You're still not willing. Are you going to marry the emperor? You, this child, are really spoiled rotten! "

Zhan Ning 'er said angrily, "I said I'm not marrying. Uncle, don't force me! I'll say this first. If Uncle insists on forcing me to marry, the Yang Family will be put on the spot. It's not my fault! "

"You …"

Zhan Ning 'er turned to leave. After a few steps, she suddenly stopped and turned back. "Uncle, has sister from the Tian family returned?"

Zhan Boxiong's heart skipped a beat. He pretended to be confused. "Tian Daisuke? Didn't she already leave? I thought she went back to the Tian family. Why? Is she coming back to visit again? "

Zhan Ning 'er couldn't say that Tian Miaowen left to see Ye Xiaotian. She thought to herself, Sister Zhan Ning' er should have met Little Tian Ge by now. Even if Little Tian Ge needs to make all sorts of preparations before coming to negotiate with Uncle, Sister Zhan Ning 'er should have come back to tell me first. Really …

She couldn't tell Zhan Boxiong about her thoughts. She could only think to herself as she left.

Zhan Boxiong waited for her to leave before he sat down on a chair. He grabbed a cup of herbal tea and drank it in one gulp. He held the empty cup and thought to himself, The Tian family and Ye Xiaotian don't have any concrete evidence. They won't be able to accuse me of anything, but I'll definitely offend them. There's no other way. I can only hold on to the Yang Family in Bozhou. Only then can I protect the reputation of the Zhan Family!

…

"Miss Tian, who's after you?"

"Do you think there's a second spider that can cast a web in this place?"

"Hehe, Zhan Boxiong? Why does he want to kill you? "

"How would I know?"

Lady Tian was angry, and her butt hurt again. The pain was fine, but the problem was that after the injury was healed, it would definitely leave a scar. Even if the Tian family had a famous doctor and a secret formula to nourish and repair skin sores, it was impossible to make her delicate skin recover to its original state. How could she not be angry?

"Otherwise … according to what he said, I'll put a peony on it … Pui pui pui!"

The more Miss Tian thought about it, the angrier she became. Ye Xiaotian was baffled. It's Zhan Boxiong who's after you. Why are you looking at me so angrily? I'm not his son. Can I take it?

"I got it!"

Tian Miaowen's eyes flashed, and she came up with another plan!

Ye Xiaotian hurriedly asked, "You know? Why does he want to kill you? "

Tian Miaowen glared at Ye Xiaotian and said, "Because of you!"

Ye Xiaotian glared back and said unhappily, "Tian Daisuke, do you have to blame this on me?"

Tian Miaowen said, "I have no enmity with the Zhan Family. Why does he want to kill me? Don't you think that the biggest trouble he wants to get rid of the most should be you? "

Ye Xiaotian said, "That's right! But the problem is, the person he sent people to kill is you, not me! "

Tian Miaowen said, "If he kills you, who doesn't know that he did it? At that time, will your loyal subordinates let it go? Zhan Boxiong, that old fox, is willing to take out his capital to fight with your subordinates? "

Tian Miaowen said, "But if he kills me, no one will suspect him, because he has no reason to kill me. If I'm not wrong, he must have a backup plan that he can frame you for! "

Ye Xiaotian cried out in grievance, "What are you saying? Do I have a reason to kill you?"

Tian Miaowen snorted coldly and said, "You're young and flirtatious. The two daughters of the Xia Family and the Zhan Family are entangled with you. In Gourd County, there's also news of you having an affair with Magistrate Hua's wife. If you want to kill me, do you still need to find a reason?"

"Uh …, you're saying …"

Ye Xiaotian thought anxiously. The more he thought about it, the more he felt that Tian Miaowen's words were very reasonable. He forgot to tease her about her own beauty. He also neglected how she knew about the affair between him and Madam Ya. If she hadn't been paying attention to him, it was unlikely that Miss Tian would know about it.

"That's right! He has no reason to kill you, but he can make up a reason to say that I killed you! If anything happens to you, the Tian family will not tolerate it no matter what. At that time, the Zhan Family will be able to reap the benefits … "

Ye Xiaotian followed Tian Miaowen's speculation and automatically filled in the gaps. Tian Miaowen was secretly pleased. She wasn't a roundworm in Zhan Boxiong's stomach. How could she guess what Zhan Boxiong's intention was?

She was only trying to incite Ye Xiaotian and Zhan Boxiong to go against each other. In a moment of desperation, she once again created a reason for Ye Xiaotian and Zhan Boxiong to go against each other. She didn't know that the reason she hastily came up with was unfortunately Zhan Boxiong's true intention.

Seeing that Ye Xiaotian had fallen into her trap, Tian Miaowen couldn't help but secretly feel pleased. She thought for a moment and said to Ye Xiaotian, "Mo Ruo, how about our two families cooperate?"

Ye Xiaotian's gaze returned to Tian Miaowen, "How do we cooperate?"
