Chapter 35 Let’s roast pork legs together!
Xiangying rushed over and hugged her.
Qi Fengyi didn't stand firmly, and they both fell to the ground.
"Let me go!" Qi Fengyi broke free from Xiangying's shackles and tried to put his neck into the rope.
Xiangying rushed forward and pushed her down. Qi Fengyi raised his fist to attack, but Xiangying grabbed his arm instead.
"I set your arm, not to let you commit suicide! Now that your life has been saved, live well."
"Don't I even have the right to die?" Qi Fengyi collapsed and roared.
She burst into tears: "My parents are dead, my country is ruined, my family is ruined, and I am dragging this broken body around. What's the point of living?"
"From childhood to adulthood, I studied military theory and the art of war. I studied hard for fifteen years, but I didn't even have the chance to go to the battlefield to avenge my parents."
"At first they said I was a woman and there was no reason for a woman to go to the battlefield. Later, because I was a woman, they removed my arms when I was insulted, leaving me powerless."
"What I have learned cannot protect Xi Zhou, nor can it protect my parents and myself!"
Listening to Qi Fengyi's hysterical crying, Xiangying slowly stood up and let go of his hand.
She lowered her dark phoenix eyes and said, "I know that when you encounter a major setback, you will want to give up."
"I stopped you because I didn't want you to die like this. You haven't even taught those who bullied you a lesson about the taste of revenge yourself, and you're letting them go like this. It's a pity."
Qi Fengyi raised his cold, red eyes and looked at her. The way he looked at Xiangying was more like he was looking at himself.
They all have no home anymore.
"I am the fish on the chopping board, how can I take revenge?"
"There are plenty of ways, as long as you want." Xiangying's eyes sparkled.
She bent down and stared into Qi Fengyi's eyes: "Men know that you are a great martial artist, so they removed your arms because they know they can't defeat you."
"You are not afraid of death and dare to fight. They know that they can't really kill you with knives, guns, sticks, and clubs, so they destroy your chastity and break down your psychological defenses."
"But don't forget that your dignity and courage should be on the weapon in your hand, not on your body or under your skirt."
Qi Fengyi was stunned.
She burst into tears: "It's easy for you to say that, but you are not the one being humiliated."
Xiangying slowly stood up and looked at the clear mountains and the rolling sea of clouds under the shining sun in the distance.
"I have suffered enough humiliation. I am only 18 years old and have three children. My former wealth and glory have vanished. The reputation of a princess of a fallen country is too ostentatious. Everyone wants to step on me from the beginning."
Qi Fengyi stopped crying without knowing when: "What about now?"
Xiangying lowered his eyes to look at her, smiled, and his beauty blossomed.
“They all learned their lesson.”
Xiangying stretched out his hand: "Get up, the fall of the Western Zhou Dynasty may not be a bad thing. From now on, you can choose to live for yourself."
Qi Fengyi had no idea what he was thinking about. Although his eyes were not as dim as before, he just stood up silently with the help of Xiangying.
When the two turned around to go back, Xiangying saw Jie Chen standing nearby.
When did he come? She didn't know.
But Xiangying didn't care how much of what he just said.
She supported Qi Fengyi and passed by Xie Chen, saying casually, "Good morning, General Jie, we have all eaten."
Looking at Xiangying's receding back, Jie Chen frowned slightly.
Who's going to ask her if she's eaten?
Xiangying brought Qi Fengyi back to the three children.
Xiang Xiuxiu immediately handed over the remaining dry biscuits.
Xiang Yuanxiao and Xiang Yuanlang gave her a pot of water.
The Seventh Princess, who was talking to Tao Xue, also greeted Qi Fengyi.
Over there, Lin Lingxiang was taking care of Prince Xiangli who had just woken up, and gave her a comforting look.
Qi Fengyi was a little stunned for a moment.
None of the people surrounding Princess Xiangying had the frustration and decadence of being exiled on their faces.
Moreover, the words that Xiangying had just used to persuade her were totally unlike what the legendary licentious princess would say.
Xiangying stuffed two buns into Qi Fengyi's hand.
"Eat more buns to keep healthy."
"Thank you..." Qi Fengyi hadn't eaten for several days and ate voraciously.
After a while, the dry biscuits given by Xiang Xiuxiu were finished.
Seeing this, the little girl immediately muttered secretly: "He eats more than me."
The exile team continued on their journey, facing the scorching summer sun.
The further we walked, the more devastation we saw.
The farmhouses affected by the earthquake collapsed, white banners were hung in the fields, and paper money was scattered on the road leading into the village.
The mountain that they were walking on was actually cracked in the middle.
The exile team had to take a different route.
The vanguard team responsible for clearing the way lost their way at this time, and led them into a deep forest, unable to find a way out.
As dusk passed, the sky looked like a sea of red fire.
The Golden Crow was about to set in the west. Seeing this, the military supervisor ordered the entire team to rest on the spot.
Tao Xue suddenly screamed.
"There are bugs! Bugs!"
Everyone around was frightened by her. Xiang Qianqian slapped her chest and said, "It's just a bug. It's not like you haven't seen it before."
The shouting was so loud that she thought another bear was coming.
Unexpectedly, Tao Xue said next: "The bug is on your shoulder, Fifth Princess!"
Xiang Qianqian tilted her head to take a look.
A thumb-long caterpillar, thick and black, crawled on her shoulder.
“Ah——!” Xiang Qianqian was so frightened that she danced with joy. She didn’t dare to take pictures, and cried and begged the people around her, “Take it off for me, take it off!”
The three little ones were amused by her funny appearance.
Xiangying snorted coldly, imitating her tone just now: "Why are you yelling? It's not like you haven't seen insects before."
In the end, Qi Fengyi walked over silently, flicked two fingers, and the insect fell to the ground, where she stepped on it to death.
Xiang Qianqian's face turned pale and he patted his chest and gasped.
"This place is too scary. Do we have to rest here?"
The person next to him said, "If you have the ability, go and convince the military supervisor to change his mind."
Xiang Qianqian felt discouraged. She glanced at Xiang Ying and knew that she would not help, so she simply sat down on the rock in frustration.
The night quickly grew dark.
The military supervisor sent people to light bonfires every five meters in the team to prevent wild beasts from approaching.
When Xiangying was making his bed, he noticed many poisonous insects crawling through the grass at his feet.
If left unchecked, it might bite the child.
Xiangying pretended to walk around and took out a lot of insect repellent herbs from the space.
"Taoxue, go and give some of this herb to Elder Lin and Concubine Yu. Tell them that I just picked it. Wearing it on your body can ward off poisonous insects."
"Yes." Tao Xue went there quickly.
Xiangying grabbed the three little ones and hung sachets filled with medicinal herbs on them.
Suddenly, Xiang Yuanxiao's stomach made a rumbling sound.
Xiang Yuanlang said coldly as a reflex: "It's Big Brother's stomach that's growling, not me!"
Xiangying didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "Yuanxiao, look at what you've done to your brother."
Xiang Yuanxiao covered his stomach with his white and tender hands and snorted, "My second brother is disloyal, but what are we going to eat tonight?"
Xiangying thought for a moment and said, "How about roast pork?"
"Roast pork!?" Xiang Yuanxiao's eyes widened. "Where did it come from?"
Xiangying took out a pig thigh from the bag that Yucheng brought back.
The three little ones jumped excitedly and divided the work among themselves.
"I'll go collect firewood!" "I'll push my uncle over here." "I'll help mother light the fire."
Xiangying laughed and pulled a dagger from his sleeve.
First, sear the pork, and then use a knife to scrape off the burnt parts on the outside.
This is fried pork rind. She gave a few pieces to the little ones and they received unanimous praise!
The fragrance drifted far away. The prisoners around, who had only had a bowl of porridge that night, could only watch helplessly.
Three military supervisors stood in a row not far away, staring in Xiangying's direction.
One of the military supervisors patted Jie Chen on the shoulder and said, "Too arrogant, you don't want to do anything about it?"
