r, was really tiring."The princess means that she's afraid something like this will happen again, afraid someone will use the prince's name to put you in danger. You don't understand any of this afte...Feng Lingxi responded, "Do you need my help I can have someone help you move things out."

Zhou Mu nodded, “Tell someone to move everything to your place and clear some space, there are quite a lot of things.”

Wind Ling Xi looked at Dugu City, "Would it be good to put it in the military camp"

"This king has someone clear a spot."

Dugu Cheng explained and deliberately left a place for Feng Lingxi. Since Zhou Mu was eager to follow Xier, this bomb, such an important thing, it was naturally more appropriate to keep it by his side so as not to be spied on by others.

Zhou Mu stared at Feng Ling Xi, "Princess Consort of Chen, would you be interested in coming to the laboratory with me"

"Alright, as long as you're not afraid of me stealing your lab equipment, I have no problem with that."

Zhou Mu smiled, if she was really afraid, would she even let her go with her

Since we are allies, why worry about these things.

"Xier, would you like me to accompany you"

"The Crown Prince can go alone. There's nothing to hide anyway."

Zhou Mu led the way, Feng Lingxi pulled up Dugu Cheng and followed his footsteps.

Ulo and his other brothers were sent to the pasture, with the soldiers helping clear the area.

Walking through the lush forest, we reached the mountain village. Although it had been over two years since its establishment, development was slow, and everything here felt simple and ordinary, much like a regular village.

"Your village has developed like this in just over two years, it's not very impressive."

"As common people, we all strive for a comfortable life. We live frugally and work hard to support our families. Of course, we wouldn't waste money."

Zhou Mu brought Feng Lingxi into the village. The soldiers followed, and everyone else in the village had already heard the news. They all looked at Feng Lingxi and Dugu City, watching them appear with the second-in-command. Even though they were curious, they could only watch.

Feng Ling looked around the environment of the mountain village, it was quite good. The rows of wooden houses were very delicate.

Zhou Mu, where are the farmers from the ranch that you captured

Feng Lingxi curiously looked around, but she didn't see anyone moving. Could it be that everyone had been imprisoned

They were digging in the mountains, all alive, just doing hard labor.

Zhou Mu said here, he didn't think his actions were too much, he just needed labor.

"By doing this, bringing them here and allowing the brothers from the village to live with their wives and children, what will happen when they return How will their wives and children face them"

Dugu Cheng tugged at Feng Lingxi's clothes, signaling her to watch her words. After all, the matter had just been settled. If it caused a commotion because of this, it would be difficult to end well.

“I didn’t force their wives and children, but how they choose to act is up to them. Besides, it takes two to tango. Love between a man and a woman can only blossom if both parties are willing.”

Feng Lingxi, hearing this, thought of the villagers' accusations and felt very uncomfortable.

"What I did was wrong, but I'm a bandit. Bandits do things that aren't always right. I apologize to you."

Feng Lingxi said faintly, "You should apologize to them, not me."

"If you don't say it, and I don't say it, they won't know, and their wives certainly won't tell. Keeping this a secret in your belly is the most appropriate thing to do."

Feng Lingxi still wanted to say something, but Dugucheng held her hand and shook his head at her.

As Zhou Mu said, it's true. They don't know. If their wives and children don't speak up, nothing will happen. But if this gets out, who knows how many families would be destroyed It really shouldn't be spoken of.

Feng Lingxi felt very uncomfortable inside, even so, at least an apology was due, wasn't it

"The Crown Princess thinks that an apology from me would be more powerful than keeping this a secret"

Zhou Mu smiled, her lips curving into a smirk. “If they knew their women had been violated, who do you think would suffer the consequences Have you considered that”

Zhou Mu knew Feng Ling Xi's thoughts as clearly as if he were her conscience.

Feng Lingxi clenched her fists. Zhou Mu's words were indeed reasonable, but she felt deeply for those pastoralists. She couldn't speak out though, as it would destroy too many families.

"When will we let them go back"

Feng Lingxi asked, releasing her clenched fist. "When you escort them back, don't let them know that the men from the village lived in their homes." If they really didn't find anything, then it would be like this.

"Later, I'll have them go back. The Crown Prince will make arrangements, and I believe it won't be a big problem."

Zhou Mu glanced at Dugu City, "As for compensation, we'll have to trouble Prince Chen then."

Dugu Cheng remained silent. This was certainly going to involve some compensation for them, but it would be impossible to make up for the harm they had suffered.

"The lab is here."

Zhou Mu led them to a cave, looking at the cave in front of him that had been hollowed out into a laboratory. The environment inside was like a spacious house, and it was like a huge warehouse, filled with all kinds of modern products.

Feng Lingxi watched Zhou Mu stretch out her hand to touch these products, the pride in her eyes was truly admirable.

Here, in its own time, it was a very successful laboratory. No wonder Zhou Mu felt so reluctant to leave. If I were her, I wouldn't want to give up such a laboratory either.

However, having to leave this laboratory despite his reluctance weighs heavily on him. Zhou Mu can currently contain his ambition, but what if one day he loses control This place could then become the root of all harm.

"Grand, imposing, you are quite clever."

Feng Lingxi sparingly praised, looking at the other side of the cave. The mountain had been excavated like a remodeled house, with windows and doors, and it was well-lit.

"This is natural, this is the result of my research over two years, it's not that difficult actually. With what I have developed, wanting to make this place like this wouldn't be a hard thing."

Zhou Mu said confidently, "However, compared to some extraordinary people's abilities, mine is still insufficient."

Dugu Cheng carefully looked at all the equipment around him, and was even more certain of one thought: This place couldn't stay.

To remain, this is the bane. Whoever obtains these, will this world still be at peace

When the time comes, when smoke and flames rise, and war engulfs the land, there will be no more peaceful days.

"It's not difficult, but it's truly impressive that you managed to do this. " After all, this isn't our era. Zhou Mu is really intelligent and incredibly cunning.

Zhou Mu smiled, accepting Feng Lingxi's praise wholeheartedly.

"Zhou Mu, after we move everything out of here, this place will be sealed off. We cannot leave anything behind, lest it attract the attention of malicious individuals in the future, leading to chaos throughout the land. I do not want to become a sinner through the ages."

"Why close it, move the things away, isn't it good to leave them here I spent two years making this, if you close it, what a pity, I can't bear to part with it."

"Would you be willing to become a sinner throughout the ages, reviled for a thousand years, ten thousand years"

"It's not that scary. Since people have moved out, it's just an empty cave. It's not as bad as you say."

Feng Ling Xi crouched down and reached out to touch the dark, blackened soil on the ground.y were drawn to the emperor's handsome features. Some ambitious young women from noble families saw this as a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.None of the concubines in the harem came, if they could re...
