After refusing marriage, she was pampered by the prince who acted as a shield.

Chapter 521: Divorce

Li Jingyang was finally relieved to receive a response from Lin Rusi.

But what he didn't expect was that a single sentence from someone would render him speechless.

"The disaster victims in Jiangnan are not ready yet. If possible, we still need to make some preparations. Thank you for your help."

"Okay, I'll go back and prepare."

Before she could finish speaking, Lin Rusi curled her lips into a sly smile as she looked at Li Jingyang.

"However, there aren't many things to do in the city right now, so the Crown Prince has to bring them back from other places."

"So you mean you want to get rid of me?"

Dissatisfied with her words, Li Jingyang looked at the woman beside him indifferently.

When their eyes met, he finally showed a slightly guilty expression.

But Lin Rusi quickly calmed down and once again showed that smile that was extremely useful to Li Jingyang, which made his expression relax.

"There are still quite a few things along the way. Why don't we collect them along the way? My wife is so kind as to take a look for me so that I don't make any mistakes."

"There's not much to do on the road, so please prepare well, my husband."

Li Jingyang was somewhat helpless, but he still gently held the person tightly in his arms until he patted the back, then he let go and let the person search for various kinds of meat in the mountains and fields.

When they returned, the carriage was filled with many more living creatures, making it a mess.

Neither of them said much, and they even held and played with several of the cubs in their hands.

"Changning would be very happy if she were here."

“You’ve brought them back, but they have nothing to feed them. You might as well leave them in the mountains.”

"How could there be nothing? Besides, if animals can eat it, then humans can eat it too."

If someone doesn't know this and tries to eat meat directly, then Lin Rusi can't help them.

He gently placed the little one aside, his gaze falling indifferently on the gaunt crowd outside.

"I wonder how Fan Zhe is doing here. He's taking such good care of people that they've become even thinner."

"That's all thanks to Madam's shrewdness; she managed to uncover everyone's secrets."

Thinking of the granary she had looted, Lin Rusi realized what had happened and couldn't help but frown as she looked at their porridge shop.

Fortunately, the people were still there distributing the aid, but there were too many people in line, and everyone was busy.

"It seems someone is taking advantage of the situation."

"Now it's time for my husband to make his move. I'll be waiting for you in the carriage."

Li Jingyang felt like he was just a tool. He glanced at Lin Rusi with a hint of resentment, then touched her soft cheek.

Hearing the soft exclamation, Lin Rusi knew he had agreed, so she took the initiative to sit opposite him and looked at him with a smile.

In the next instant, the person was already outside, easily pulling out the men pretending to be refugees.

"Who are the people behind you, and why are you infiltrating among the refugees to trick them into giving you food?"

"Your Honor is innocent! We are all refugees, there are no imposters among us!"

Li Jingyang completely ignored their excuses, reached out and pressed them to the ground, and pulled out the silver from his pocket.

That's not all; these people were clearly greasy from eating, and their clothes were loose, revealing their white and fat bellies.

“I had no idea that refugees could eat like this.”

"How could someone so fat and greasy look like us? This person has a really good eye."

Amidst the cacophony of voices, the group of people were at a loss for how to react and could only lower their heads, too afraid to move.

But Li Jingyang had no intention of dealing with the person so easily; he ordered his guards to take him directly to the magistrate's residence.

Once they got to the prison, things became even simpler. They quickly found out who the mastermind was, Fan Zhe, and easily arrested the people from Jiujiang.

Li Jingyang looked at Lin Rusi peeking out of the carriage, sighed, but still had the guards follow him while he sat back in the carriage first.

Completely unaware of the situation, Fan Zhe assumed that the troublemakers had implicated him and anxiously considered how to get rid of them.

The soft footsteps stopped in front of Fan Zhe, and after a long while, a sigh was heard.

How did this person get arrested?

"Paying money to let people rob disaster victims of their food supplies, I don't know what they were thinking. What good would it do for those people to die in the city?"

"By the way, he used to run a porridge shop and even prepared a lot of abandoned houses for people."

The constable, as if just remembering something, slammed his fist on the fence separating the two men in even greater anger.

"Are you trying to do something good for yourself by using other people's rice?"

"Don't wrong me again, I never thought of such a thing."

"really?"

Lin Rusi squatted down, staring straight at the other person, revealing a smile in an attempt to make them recognize her disguised self.

But Fan Zhe clearly didn't think in that direction and didn't recognize the person in front of him at all.

Lin Rusi wasn't going to give him that chance. She smiled and peeled off the human skin, revealing her delicate little face.

"He didn't actually do that, after all, it was their family's property, it's just a pity that he couldn't keep it."

"What do you mean? Why did you say that was me...?"

Fan Zhe suddenly opened his eyes, wanting to say something else, but was interrupted by that familiar face.

Looking at Lin Rusi with wide surprise, he wanted to say something more, but his arm reached out first.

But the next moment the chain got stuck between the fence bars and someone slapped it back.

"Lin Rusi! You've always known that you were just playing me, haven't you?!"

"I'm just keeping this in mind in case of emergency, since there are always some people who would want my life."

Lin Rusi casually uttered those words, then ignored the exposed flipping and turned to leave.

As soon as I stepped out, I was pulled into the carriage by a pair of large hands.

Why bother with that person?

"I just want people to die knowing the truth."

Li Jingyang didn't say much after hearing this, but gently placed the person on the cleaned chair.

"The animals have been sent out?"

“I’ll have the county magistrate do it, that way we can have two copies of the story.”

The other party had thought things through more carefully, so Lin Rusi naturally wouldn't refuse.

But the next moment, Li Jingyang placed his head on Lin Rusi's neck and exhaled the stale air from his body.

"Do you want to go back? Changning must miss you too."

"Are you pushing me away again? Do you think I'm a burden to you?"

How can it be?

Li Jingyang clearly wanted to say something else, but his arm was grabbed tightly.

"If that's the case, I'll write a divorce agreement, and you can't stop me from getting this status."

"Nonsense!"

Although he was growling, his face was full of panic, and the arm he had placed on his waist was being held tightly in his arms.

While others might not have noticed his condition, Lin Rusi could easily detect it and placed her hand directly on his head at the nape of his neck.

"If you don't want me to say such things again, and if you stop saying them in the future, I won't bring it up again."

"it is good."
