Chapter 169: General Zhao's Protection

Xie Anfeng blocked Xie Yanyan behind him.

"Why? I, the Crown Prince's Consort of the Nanzhong Prince, can't invite you?"

A photo of a young woman who looks 70% like Zhuang Tao, lifting the screen window.

Xie Yanyan didn't say anything and looked her up and down.

"Dig out her eyes for me." Zhuang Pengpeng said coldly.

Her parents, brothers, and sister-in-law all died in an accident. Her family members looted her property, including money, food, and even the fine furniture in the house. Even the door frames were broken off.

She hates it so much!

In the midst of the pain and panic, she suddenly thought of Xie Yanyan, who was really a jinx. She had been to Chencheng, and the princess's reputation was ruined, and she was also cheated of a salt well by her.

His father and brother had great power in Boluo County and had been doing well for many years. However, when Xie Yanyan arrived, his parents and brother died on the same day.

"Dig out her eyes for me." Zhuang Pengpeng said again.

Xie Yanyan's eyes are phoenix eyes, not the kind of charming peach blossom eyes, but beautiful and dignified.

Anyone she dislikes will lose her eyes.

Xie Anfeng stood in front of Xie Yanyan and said coldly: "You are the Crown Prince Consort of the King of Nanzhong, and my Yan'er is a fugitive from Dongguan County. What does it have to do with you? Why should I be your slave?"

Zhuang Pengpeng said angrily: "You bold slave, no one has dared to speak to this prince's wife like this! Dig out your eyes, pull out your tongue, chop it up and feed it to the dogs!"

Several of her guards and maids rushed over, pulling out her tendons, peeling off her skin and gouging out her eyes.

"Stop! Let's see who dares?"

With a loud shout, Zhao Yining strode out of the house.

He was talking to someone when Zhang Hengliang reported to him that Zhuang Pengpeng wanted to kill Xie Anfeng and Xie Yanyan and dig out their eyes.

He stopped talking and came out to drink.

"General Zhao, I am the consort of the Crown Prince of Nanzhong. This slave girl has already been arranged with my brother to be sent to the Nanzhong Palace."

Zhuang Pengpeng naturally recognized Zhao Yining. Zhao Yining and Zhuang Yiji used to be colleagues, but one was a civil servant and the other a military officer.

Zhao Yining didn't even think about it and said directly: "This is a prisoner from Dongguan County, not a female slave."

Xie Yanyan put the big stone that he had prepared back into the space.

Zhuang Pengpeng frowned and looked at Zhao Yining. Did she hear it wrong?

"General Zhao, I am the Crown Prince's Consort of the Prince of Nanzhong," she reminded.

"Who you are has nothing to do with me. I am the commander of Dongguan County. You are standing on the land of Dongguan County."

Zhuang Pengpeng really understood this time. Zhao Yining was not giving her face!

"The Nanzhong Palace and Governor Zhao have always kept their distance from each other. There is no need for the Governor to protect this slave girl, right?"

"Princess Nanzhong, listen carefully. Xie Anfeng and Xie Yanyan are prisoners of my Dongguan County, not anyone's slaves!" Zhao Yining said seriously, "They are prisoners, not lifelong slaves. After their service, they will still be civilians."

Convicts and slaves are two completely different concepts.

Zhuang Pengpeng looked grim and said, "This female...female prisoner, my father and I have discussed taking her back to the Nanzhong Palace."

"Who gave you the right to take the imperial prisoners out to serve in the prefectures? We received documents that the group of prisoners in Kyoto are all serving in Boluo County of Dongguan County. Boluo County belongs to Dongguan County, not yours."

"General Zhao means that I can't take this person with me?"

"If you have documents from the imperial court, you can take them away. If not, you can't take them away!" General Zhao was 1.7 meters tall, but his aura was over 2 meters tall.

Zhuang Pengpeng looked at Governor Zhao and wanted to lose her temper but finally swallowed it back.

Zhuang Yiji has been entrenched in Boluo County for many years, and Zhao Yining is very afraid of this local tyrant.

But now Zhuang Yiji is gone, even Zhuang Tao is dead, and when a person dies, the light is gone. Who cares who you are, Zhuang Pengpeng?

"Let's go!" Zhuang Pengpeng called the guards and maids and drove away.

He walked angrily for five or six miles, still cursing Xie Yanyan, cursing General Zhao for definitely falling for that bitch Xie Yanyan, cursing them for being torn into pieces and dying a miserable death...

"Boom boom"

There was a noise on the hillside and several large rocks rolled down.

In broad daylight, the mountain has slipped again! !

The coachman tried to drive the carriage as fast as he could, but he was too late. The carriage was overturned and Zhuang Pengpeng screamed "Ah~" and died on the spot.

The whole family is neatly gathered...

Xie Anfeng and Zhao Yining didn't know that Zhuang Pengpeng had been hit by a landslide again. The former saluted Zhao Yining and said, "Thank you, Governor."

Zhao Yining shook his head: "Why thank me? She didn't care in the first place. Don't mess with her in the future. I can protect you once, but I can't protect you all the time. After all, this is where the banker has been operating for many years, and the foundation is complicated. Don't cause trouble."

"yes."

Just as Xie Anfeng and Xie Yanyan were about to leave, Zhao Yining suddenly said, "Xie Anfeng, you and Xie Ning are both military commanders. When you have time, help me train the soldiers in the barracks. There are few people here, so it would be a great achievement if we can save a few lives."

"Yes, Ning'er and I will do our best."

Song Lingling was holding little Nannan and was going to the military camp to collect daily necessities, but someone told her that Xie Yanyan was stopped by Zhuang Pengpeng and was being taken to the Nanzhong Palace. She did not collect her things and ran out of the governor's office.

Met Tiffany Hsieh halfway.

Xie Tingting was assigned to the clothing camp, where she made shoes, socks, clothes, bedding, etc. for the soldiers in the camp.

Many female prisoners were assigned to the clothing camp, and those with clumsy hands became laundry women, specializing in washing and mending clothes for the soldiers.

Tiffany Hsieh was quite skillful and pretty, so she was assigned to make new clothes and shoes for the military camp.

She collected the daily necessities and seeing Song Lingling running towards the Governor's Mansion in a hurry with the child in her arms, she ran after her.

While running, he said angrily: "Aren't you still in confinement after childbirth? The baby is not even a month old, right? Why are you running? What are you trying to do?"

Song Lingling ignored her and just ran away.

Halfway through the run, he met Xie Anfeng and Xie Yanyan who had returned safely. He gasped and asked, "Dad, sister, are you okay?"

"It's okay." Xie Yanyan saw her face flushed with tears from running, and asked, "Who told you anything?"

"It's nothing, as long as you're safe."

Xie Tingting was also running with sweat all over her face, so she stopped to look at Xie Yanyan and Xie Anfeng, snorted, turned around and left.

After a noisy afternoon, it finally settled down at night.

Xie Yanyan stood at the gate of the yard, watching Xie Ning and Xie Yong wait in line for a long time and then bring back two buckets of water.

"Why did you take so long?" Xie Anfeng asked.

"The surface water here is not drinkable. This water is filtered by the people in the water purification camp, and there is one bucket for every 10 people." Xie Ning spoke in a low voice.

They were given two buckets of water as special care, while Xie Tingting, Tang Zhan and Su Moqing were given only one bucket of water.

"The water must be boiled, and it must be boiled for a long time. Otherwise, it may not be very clean." Xie Ning added, "Cui Yu specifically told us that drinking raw water may cause various diseases."

The little boy was so scared that he asked in a baby voice, "Dad, are there any bugs in there?"

"Yes, there are bugs."

Xie Lingyu was so scared that his face turned yellow. He was so thirsty that he didn't dare to touch it.
