After I traveled through the book, I fought back in the Hou Mansion

Chapter 178 Embarrassment

Chapter 178

"How is that possible?" Ye Yunzhou rarely showed such a shocked expression. After hearing Luo Shuiyao's words, he also rarely showed such an expression.

"If this is true, the Northern Di are truly despicable. One day, I will make them pay for this conspiracy and let them know that teasing our dynasty will never end well." Anger burned in his eyes, his fists clenched, and his knuckles turned white.

Luo Shuiyao looked at him and sighed softly, "This matter requires further consideration. The Northern Di have always been cunning, so we must not act rashly. The most urgent task is to inform the court of this matter and re-plan the horse breeding strategy."

Ye Yunzhou nodded slightly, trying hard to suppress the anger in his heart, "You are right, we need to act quickly and cannot let Beidi succeed again."

Seeing that he had calmed down, Luo Shuiyao continued, "But I've only heard about this matter from others, and it's not certain. If we rashly report it to the court and the actual results don't match our expectations, I'm afraid His Majesty will be angry, and that would be more trouble than good. Why don't you send someone to investigate thoroughly first, or try importing some mares to test it. If it's as we suspect, it won't be too late to report to His Majesty."

Ye Yunzhou nodded and said, "I know how to handle this matter, don't worry."

Luo Shuiyao glanced at him sideways, "Why would I worry about you when you're fine?"

Seeing her like this, Ye Yunzhou just smiled and said nothing.

The two chatted for a while before a maid came in with some porridge and side dishes. After they finished their meal, Ye Yunzhou looked at Luo Shuiyao with a hint of anticipation in his eyes and invited her, "I'm going back to the horse training camp now. Are you interested in learning to ride? I have nothing to do today, so I can teach you."

Luo Shuiyao was genuinely interested in horseback riding. Since someone was willing to teach her, she didn't hesitate. After all, all matters at the farm were handled by a dedicated person; she only needed to be responsible for the arrangements. Naturally, she wanted to learn how to ride a horse and experience the thrill of galloping.

"Okay. Let's go now," he said. After making the decision, Luo Shuiyao took the lead and walked out.

Ye Yunzhou followed beside her, looking down at her, feeling warm in his heart, as if he was immersed in a honey pot, full of sweetness and comfort.

When I got outside, I saw that the Red Hare was still leisurely eating grass outside the door after such a long time. It had not gone far, and it had not even moved an inch.

Ye Yunzhou blew a loud whistle, and the horse immediately galloped towards them. Ye Yunzhou was the first to jump on the horse gracefully, then stretched out his hand to Luo Shuiyao.

Luo Shuiyao hesitated for a moment, but ultimately couldn't bring herself to refuse the temptation of riding an ancient BMW, so she placed her hand in his. With a slight effort, Ye Yunzhou pulled her in front of him and sat her down.

Luo Shuiyao sat up straight somewhat uncomfortably, but was worried that she would block Ye Yunzhou's sight, so she tilted her head slightly.

Because he was bringing Luo Shuiyao with him, Ye Yunzhou was afraid that she would be scared, but he also wanted to spend more time with her, so he let the horse take them slowly and leisurely towards the horse training camp.

When Ye Yunzhou noticed Luo Shuiyao's movements, he couldn't help but feel a little puzzled and asked softly, "What are you doing?"

Luo Shuiyao didn't care whether Ye Yunzhou could see her or not. She just pulled the corner of her mouth awkwardly and said, "I'm afraid I'll block you and prevent you from seeing the road ahead."

Ye Yunzhou laughed at first, then the smile grew wider and wider, until he couldn't help but laugh out loud. He lowered his eyes to look at the person who saw his chin and teased, "Do you have any misunderstandings about your height? Why do you think you're blocking my view?"

Luo Shuiyao froze, and when she came to her senses, she felt that her previous thought was really stupid, and her ears blushed with shame. Without turning around, she reached behind her and grabbed hard, intending to grab Ye Yunzhou's thigh and twist it to relieve her anger, but she didn't expect the man's thigh muscles to be so tight that she couldn't pull it at all.

Seeing this, Ye Yunzhou's laughter became louder, and Luo Shuiyao could even clearly feel the vibration of his chest. This time, Luo Shuiyao was really angry: "Okay! You think I can't twist it, right?"

She reached out again and twisted the soft flesh on his waist, but unexpectedly twisted in the wrong place and pinched his lower abdomen.

This time it was Ye Yunzhou's turn to freeze. He lowered his eyes and looked at Luo Shuiyao with disbelief on his face.

Luo Shuiyao regretted it immediately after she finished twisting it. She really wanted to slap herself hard a few times. She was extremely upset. How could she do such a stupid thing? Even though she was not young at heart, she blushed unconsciously at this moment. She hurriedly turned her head and tried to pretend that this had never happened.

Seeing her like this, Ye Yunzhou was almost laughing out of anger. He took a few deep breaths, trying to suppress the restlessness surging in his heart, but the arm holding her reins slowly tightened.

Seeing him like this, Luo Shuiyao subconsciously turned sideways, trying to avoid his arm, but Ye Yunzhou held her shoulder with his other hand, "Don't move, I won't offend you."

Seeing that he saw through her intention to avoid him, Luo Shuiyao could only laugh twice to hide her embarrassment.

The two of them sat on the horse's back, one standing straight, trying to avoid the person behind him; the other was also very graceful, trying not to make contact with her. Luo Shuiyao finally breathed a sigh of relief.

I didn't feel like I had walked that far yesterday, but for some reason, riding a horse today was slower than walking.

Looking at the horse training camp, which was some distance away, Luo Shuiyao felt the atmosphere was truly unsettling. Thinking of the wood issue that had been weighing on her mind for the past two days, she used this as an excuse to change the subject. "I have something to trouble you with. I wonder if you have any connections. If so, could you please introduce me to someone?"

Ye Yunzhou naturally noticed her discomfort, and after looking at her stiff back, he followed her words and asked, "What's the matter?"

"I want to build some houses on the vacant land behind the villa, but the problem is that I have a big problem with materials such as wood and tiles. I have no connections or connections in this area. I have been worrying about this for the past two days. I wonder if you know anyone who can do this?"

Ye Yunzhou was a little curious. Why did she want to build more houses? But he was not a talkative person. If she didn't say it, he wouldn't ask. "I know some timber merchants. How much do you need?"

Luo Shuiyao thought for a moment: "It's not clear yet, it may take a lot."

Ye Yunzhou nodded: "Then I will inform Ye Yi, and you can send someone to contact Ye Yi and ask him to run errands for you."

Luo Shuiyao felt a little embarrassed. She knew that Ye Yi was also a big shot in Yinlongsi. How could she let him handle such trivial matters?
