After all, the remaining people are all women. Do we expect women to drive the carriage?
The two brothers who accepted their fate were forced to shoulder the burden of the second house under such difficult conditions.
On the other side, the people who had been traveling quickly with the help of the lightness talisman still had not reached the post station.
Instead, they saw a village on the road. They didn't know how long the rain would last, so Liu Yong and Liu Gang resolutely decided to take everyone into the village to shelter from the rain.
Although it is not very convenient to stay in the village, it is much better than taking the risk of looking for an inn outside.
Moreover, as the escort officers, Liu Yong and Liu Gang had to carry out their decisions unconditionally.
However, when Liu Yong thought about his future plans, he decided to ask the young masters of the Duke of England about their plans first.
Even the people from Wu'an Marquis Mansion stood aside, and the opinions of the Xiao family were not important.
However, everyone can understand the attitudes of Liu Yong and Liu Gang. After all, the Xiao family no longer has the title of Marquis of Wu'an.
Even if the Xiao family had extraordinary abilities, at this time they could not compare to the Duke of Yingguo's Mansion, which was still at its peak.
Even if Liu Yong came to ask Yun Ruoyang for her opinion, Yun Ruoyang would still habitually ask Yun Ruoxi for her opinion.
Liu Yong and Liu Gang also noticed along the way that whether it was the Marquis of Wu'an's Mansion or the Duke of Ying'an's Mansion, everyone listened to Yun Ruoxi's opinions.
The two officers looked at each other and secretly noted this detail in their hearts.
They worked as guards escorting prisoners in the Ministry of War. Over time, they didn't learn anything else, but they mastered the skill of reading people's expressions.
The two of them would not look down on Yun Ruoxi just because she was a female member of the harem. They just habitually asked the men first if there was anything.
But after repeated proof, Yun Ruoxi is the center of the entire exile team. Even Marquis Wu'an listens to his daughter-in-law and is in a state of complete delegation of power.
Yun Ruoxi didn't know that in just a short while, even an official had thought of so many things.
I felt panic in my heart, but I didn't know why.
The rain is coming down hard now. For everyone's safety, the best option is to go directly into the village to take shelter from the rain.
"Okay, I'll follow your instructions."
Liu Yong nodded and slowly breathed a sigh of relief. He was really afraid that Yun Ruoxi would not agree, and then everyone would suffer.
Fortunately, he made the right bet. Yun Ruoxi was not the troublemaker in the second house. She could still tell the difference between right and wrong when faced with major issues.
Liu Yong said loudly, "Everyone, go into the village. After we have packed up, we will need a few people to ride on horses with my two brothers to pick up the people from the second house."
Although Liu Yong said that he didn't care about the second wife, he would not give up on the people from the second wife as long as there was a glimmer of hope.
It wasn't because Liu Yong was kind or had a sense of justice, but because he simply didn't want to be unable to report to the border.
After all, if too many people died, they, as escorting officers, would also be punished.
So Liu Yong simply wanted to avoid being tortured in vain, so even though he was extremely reluctant, he had to go back and find someone.
Yun Ruoyang knew the difficulties Liu Yong and Liu Gang faced. "Don't worry, sir. Once we're settled, we brothers will go with you."
Xiao Jingrui nodded, "That's right, letting them die like this would be too easy for them."
Xiao Jingxuan had more issues to consider. "Although it is relatively safe in the village, for safety reasons, we still need some men to stay behind to guard the women in case of any emergencies."
Liu Yong: "That's right. Let's discuss this matter after we enter the village. This is not the place to talk."
The exile team now only had four carriages left, and two officials were riding horses, heading towards a village not far away.
The village looked not far away, but it took half an hour to reach the entrance.
In addition, the rain affected the vision to some extent, so the view was not clear.
When we arrived at the entrance of the village, we saw a stone tablet and a colorful gate with the three big characters "Dashan Village" written on it.
At this time, everyone also saw the whole picture of the mountain village. Most of the village was halfway up the mountain, and only a small number of people lived at the foot of the mountain.
Liu Yong was the first to ride into the village and went straight to the only blue brick and tile house at the foot of the mountain. He dismounted and didn't even bother to get mud on his legs. He went straight forward and knocked on the door.
The knocking sound was not clear in the heavy rain, and Liu Yong was worried that the owner of the house might not hear it, so he used relatively more force.
After knocking for a full quarter of an hour, I heard a voice from inside, "Who is it? I'm coming right away."
When Liu Yong heard that there was someone there, he felt relieved.
As the door opened, a middle-aged man opened it and looked at Liu Yong outside the door vigilantly.
Liu Yong also knew that the exiled team had a special identity, so he did not directly reveal their true identity.
"Sorry to bother you, brother. We are merchants passing through here. We were caught in a downpour and have nowhere to hide. Could you please let me stay at your house? The price is negotiable."
Although the middle-aged man was alert, he was just an ordinary farmer. After looking at the clothes Liu Yong was wearing and thinking he didn't look like a bad guy, he nodded and agreed.
"Okay, my father is the village chief. I have to ask his opinion on this matter. Brother, please wait a moment."
Liu Yong was the one who had the audacity to interrupt, but to his surprise, the middle-aged man was actually quite polite and easy to talk to.
Because of this first impression, Liu Yong also felt relieved.
After a while, the middle-aged man came out with an old man with a white beard who looked really hard-working.
