Upon hearing Ouyang Yuqing's words, the hunter looked at the couple in disbelief.

"Are you exiled?"

When the hunter asked him a question, Ouyang Yuqing replied, "Yes! You must have heard about the prince who was demoted to a commoner and exiled, right?"

Upon hearing this, the hunter muttered to himself in confusion: "A demoted prince? Isn't that the War King?"

As he spoke, something suddenly occurred to him, and he widened his eyes and asked, "Could you be the War King?..."

Upon hearing this, Ouyang Yuqing said awkwardly, "Hehe, I am now just a commoner. From now on, there is no War King, so there's no need to mention the past."

Upon hearing Ouyang Yuqing's words and confirming their authenticity, the hunter immediately knelt down and kowtowed to Ouyang Yuqing.

He said, "This humble subject pays his respects to Your Highness, the War King. I was blind to your greatness, please forgive me."

Ouyang Yuqing never expected that even though he had been demoted, people would still kowtow to him.

Seeing the hunter kowtowing, he quickly stepped forward to help him up, saying, "Didn't I just say that? From now on, even without the War King, I am just a commoner. You can't do this again."

The hunter was very excited at this moment. He smiled and said to Ouyang Yuqing, "Your Majesty, you may not know this, but in our hearts you are forever a king."

No... it is the eternal God. It was you who protected the people of Haoyue Kingdom with your own power. We, the people, are grateful to you.

Besides, when my second brother was discharged from the army due to injury, the amount of silver he received was less. It was you who, despite the pressure, generously gave him an extra ten taels.

Perhaps ten taels of silver is nothing to a wealthy family, but for us poor people, it is a life-saving sum.

My second brother was seriously injured at the time, and it was thanks to the extra ten taels of silver from Your Highness that his life was saved.

"Putting everything else aside, just the fact that you care about us poor people and work for our welfare is enough to earn your respect.

Upon hearing the hunter's words, Shen Yingying thought to herself that in the original owner's memories, Ouyang Yuqing was not only a highly decorated general, but also had an excellent reputation for being kind and righteous to the people. This was indeed true.

She was also grateful that after she traveled through time, she met this seemingly cold but actually warm-hearted man.

If she were to transmigrate and possess the body of a concubine in the palace, she would be considered incompetent if she didn't tear that bastard Emperor Ouyang Zhenyu to pieces.

Fortunately, she met Ouyang Yuqing, a devoted lover; otherwise, she would never know what earth-shattering things she might have done in this world.

If she wanted to be an empress, she could do it, but that's not her ambition; she has no such aspirations. (Yes, you don't have those thoughts; your thoughts are all about money and food!!!)

Shen Yingying pondered for a long time.

When Ouyang Yuqing heard the hunter say that, he was genuinely moved.

He also thought to himself that he had not let the people down, and based on what the hunter said, he felt that what he had done was worthwhile.

However, he said to the hunter, "That's all in the past, no need to bring it up again. I wonder if you think it's feasible for our exiled group to stay overnight in your village?"

Still excited, the hunter heard Ouyang Yuqing ask about lodging again. He said to Ouyang Yuqing, "Your Highness, I wholeheartedly agree to your request for lodging, but I cannot make decisions about this village."

Come back with me and ask our village chief what he thinks.

Upon hearing the hunter's words, Ouyang Yuqing thought to himself: Yes, how could he have overlooked this issue?

He thought for a moment, then said to the hunter, "Our exiled group will arrive in about fifteen minutes. Once they arrive, we can go into the village together and ask them what's up."
