Ergouzi brought a pot of malt syrup into the house and saw that the four sarcophagi in the house were all opened. Ergouzi was stunned for a moment.
Yu Xiaoxiao glanced at the big pot in Er Gouzi's hand, choked, and said, "Did you cook all my sugar?"
Er Gouzi, the honest kid, assured Yu Xiaoxiao: "Don't worry, Princess, I didn't waste any of it. The maltose is all in the water."
Yu Xiaoxiao said with a painful look: "One bowl per person is enough!" The person is too weak, and he cannot replenish water and nutrition too much at one time, but needs to drink small amounts multiple times. This big pot of sugar water can kill people!
Er Gouzi was dumbfounded and said, "So much sugar, only four bowls of water, it will be choking to death, right?"
Yu Xiaoxiao..., then just put less sugar!
Yu Xiaoxiao scooped some sugar water with a spoon and tasted it. It tasted good and sweet. If it was in the summer, it would taste even better if it was chilled in the refrigerator! (Can you think of a realistic problem? Where in the world is there a refrigerator? Wow!)
Su Zhao then asked: "Just use a spoon to feed them?"
Yu Xiao: "Well, I'll give them something else to eat later. Let them drink some sugar water first, so they will feel better."
Zuo You came into the house with a basin in one hand and a bucket in the other, and said to Yu Xiaoxiao and Su Zhao, "The kitchen in this house is fully equipped. Someone lives in this house."
Yu Xiao: "There must be someone living here. If the Eternal Life Temple doesn't want my third brother Su and the others to die, they must give them water and food."
Zuo You..., in just a short while, the princess has already called me Brother Su San. Isn't this recognition of kinship a little too fast?
"You have to run an errand anyway," Yu Xiaoxiao took the basin and bucket from Zuo You and said to Marshal Zuo, "Go find my father, Jing Mo, Xiao Jiang and the others and tell them about Brother Su San and the others. If you don't want to alert the enemy, the streets and alleys in this area must be under martial law, and all the houses and shops must be searched." At this point, Yu Xiaoxiao was afraid that Zuo You didn't understand the meaning of martial law, so she added, "Martial law means a curfew during the day."
"What's the reason?" Zuo You asked Yu Xiaoxiao, "There must be a reason for mobilizing so many troops, right?"
"Catch the monk," Yu Xiaoxiao said as a matter of course, "We caught Yiye near here. Do we need anyone's approval to search?"
Su Zhao then said, "Just say that the government got the news and came to search for the fugitive."
Yu Xiao: "Does it have to be so complicated? What if someone asks what kind of fugitive it is?"
"The rebels who attempted to assassinate the emperor," Su Zhao said.
Yu Xiaoxiao asked Zuo You: "What do you think?"
Zuo You said: "I can do whatever I want, the key is what the princess thinks."
"Me?" Yu Xiaoxiao thought for a moment and said, "Okay, you're already thinking about killing my father, this crime can't be any bigger."
"Okay," Zuo You agreed straightforwardly, "I'll go to the palace."
Su Zhao said: "We must hurry up, before the people from the Temple of Eternal Life come."
Zuo You nodded.
Yu Xiao: "Keep a low profile and don't let anyone recognize you."
Zuo You assured Yu Xiaoxiao, saying, "Not many people in Fengjing City recognize me."
"Keep a low profile," Yu Xiaoxiao emphasized to Zuo You.
Zuo You nodded repeatedly and ran out of the house.
Yu Xiaoxiao turned her head and looked at the woman who was still crying, and said, "I see that you have plenty of strength. You don't need to drink the sugar water. I'll have someone cook porridge for you later."
The woman was in much better condition than the Su brothers. She was well dressed and didn't look fat, but she wasn't skinny either. "I'm not hungry," the woman was very dependent on Yu Xiaoxiao at the moment, crying to Yu Xiaoxiao, "Where am I now?"
Yu Xiao: "You are in Fengjing City now, don't cry, I will treat you to porridge later, and give you two eggs with sugar core."
The woman wiped her tears. Her face, which had not been washed for many days, was washed by her tears and became black and gray, leaving a stained face.
Yu Xiaoxiao washed the girl's face first, and asked Ergouzi to feed her water. She then began to wash Su Gen and Su Xu's faces and hands. If there was enough water, Yu Xiaoxiao would have given the three brothers a bath.
Su Zhao carefully fed his three brothers the sugar water, one mouthful at a time. As he fed them, his expression became sad again.
After Yu Xiaoxiao washed Second Young Master Su Gen's face, she looked up at Su Zhao standing next to her and said, "Why do you have that expression again? Do you want to cry again?"
Su Zhao shook his head and put the copper spoon to Su Gen's lips. It took Su Zhao a long time to feed him this spoonful of sugar water.
Yu Xiao: "Don't worry about your father. I don't think it's possible that he would send your father and brothers to us, given the bad character of the bald man. He must have something on him."
Su Zhao said: "Do you think my father is not dead?"
Yu Xiao: "That bald guy is not stupid. He should have thought of the possibility that we rescued Brother Su San and the others. How could he send the hostages here?"
Su Zhao frowned and said, "Wouldn't it be better if he sent a brother?"
Yu Xiaoxiao thought about Su Zhao's question, shook her head and said, "I don't know about that, but Second Brother Su and the others are not in good health. The last time I heard you say that the incident in your Su family happened more than ten years ago?"
"Yes," Su Zhao fed Su Xu some sugar water again.
Yu Xiaoxiao examined Su Gen's body. His naked body was touched and pressed by a girl like Yu Xiaoxiao, but the second young master Su did not react at all. It was obvious that the torture of more than ten years had made him mentally numb and he had lost the ability to react to things in the outside world.
After Su Zhao fed Su Xu a spoonful of sugar water, he turned back to feed Su Yan.
When Su Yan saw Su Zhao this time, he looked a little excited.
