No matter how depressed Zuo You was in Chiyang City, or how Baihu's Beiyou City was besieged by "rebels" under the banner of clearing the court three days later, or how the new emperor Suzaku held a grand birthday banquet for the emperor seven days later, these had nothing to do with Yu Xiaoxiao.
Her Royal Highness the Princess and her entourage traveled day and night, killing several horses. Even with such a fast travel method, it still took them ten full days to enter the Miao area.
It was the evening of the tenth day when the group entered the Miao land. The guide and the team of 20 elite cavalrymen led by Jiang Zhuojun were very nervous, but Yu Xiaoxiao and his gang, including General Xiao Jiang, were very calm. Having set fire to the palace, kidnapped the prince, robbed the execution ground, beaten the emperor, and helped in the rebellion, it was difficult for this group of people to be nervous about anything else in the world. (==)
Yu Xiaoxiao also said to the guide named Tang: "Brother Tang, please stop looking around. It's so late, and the Miao people also need to go to bed."
Brother Tang looked at the horse meat stewing in the big pot. He didn't want to talk to the princess at all. What about being profound, noble, and not being worldly? To hell with it! Brother Tang was in pain now. Princess Linglong was not profound, and she didn't look noble at all. It was impossible for her to be not worldly. Brother Tang could accept all these. We are all mortals, right? But the problem was that Princess Linglong was not a human! On this journey, Brother Tang cried. He didn't understand nine out of ten words the princess said to him!
The eldest boss sat nearby, took a horse leg from the pot and took a bite, then complained to Yu Xiaoxiao: "Princess, this horse meat is too disgusting."
Seeing the boss pick up a horse leg, Yu Xiaoxiao also picked up a horse leg from the pot with chopsticks, took a bite, and said, "God will strike you down if you waste food."
The eldest boss shook his head and called to Er Gouzi, "Gouzi, pour some more pepper into the pot."
Yu Xiao: "Brother Tang, do you want to eat?"
Brother Tang sighed. In fact, not only Her Royal Highness the Princess did not look like a human, but also the people following Her Royal Highness the Princess, including the serious-looking Prince Consort, did not look like a human. They brought several hundred kilograms of food on the road, but these people did not even let go of the horses that died on the road. After seeing Her Royal Highness the Princess personally cutting up the horse carcass, Brother Tang said that he would never eat horse meat again in his life.
"Brother Tang?" Yu Xiaoxiao shouted.
Gu Xinglang came over and said, "Lao Tang, go and see if there is anything wrong."
Brother Tang let out an "Ah!", jumped up from the ground and ran away.
Gu Xinglang poured himself a bowl of horse meat soup and said to Yu Xiao: "Just let Brother Tang go. I think he's going crazy."
"How could that be?" Yu Xiaoxiao was puzzled. She had been trying to get close to this very important guide all along the way. Wasn't she friendly enough in front of Brother Tang?
The eldest boss said, "Son-in-law, don't worry about this matter." If the princess tortured Brother Tang every day, their lives would be better.
Horse meat has a sour taste, and the soup made from it is not very tasty. Gu Xinglang finished a bowl of horse meat soup and asked the boss: "How much horse meat do we have left?"
The eldest master's face turned bitter when he heard Gu Xinglang's question, and he said, "Prince Consort, we can still eat horse meat for a few more days."
Young Master Gu's expression changed a little. Eating horse meat as a meal made Young Master Gu's stomach feel sour.
"Xiao Linzi," Yu Xiaoxiao had already finished chewing a horse leg and was breaking the bones with her hands, wanting to eat the marrow inside. When she saw Gu Lin walking past her with a bowl of horse meat, Yu Xiaoxiao called out.
Gu Lin half-knelt in front of his third young master and said, "Princess, is there anything wrong?"
Yu Xiaoxiao sucked the bone marrow, sucking it up.
The image of Her Royal Highness the Princess was a little too cruel, and Gu Lin didn't dare to look at it.
Gu Xinglang fed a piece of horse meat from the bowl to Yu Xiaoxiao and asked Gu Lin, "How many days will it take to get from here to my eldest brother?"
When Gu Lin heard Gu Xinglang ask this, he quickly became serious and said, "Third Young Master, if it's fast, it will take another three days."
Yu Xiaoxiao's mouth was filled with horse meat, and her cheeks were bulging. She said to Gu Xinglang, "We will be able to see Big Brother in three days."
Gu Xinglang patted Yu Xiaoxiao's hand and said to Gu Lin, "Will the person who hurt you be waiting for us on the road?"
Gu Lin whispered, "Third Young Master, I don't know about this, but with so many of us coming in, the noise won't be hidden from those people."
Gu Xinglang nodded and said, "Go ahead."
Gu Lin stood up and left.
When the group had almost finished the pot of horse meat, Brother Tang came back reluctantly.
Yu Xiao: "Brother Tang, if you don't come back, you will starve."
Brother Tang still had a few cakes in his arms, but he didn't dare to eat them in front of Yu Xiaoxiao. If he ate them in front of this person, Brother Tang believed that he wouldn't be able to eat more than a few bites of these cakes.
"Is it safe around here?" Gu Xinglang asked Brother Tang.
Brother Tang ran to Gu Xinglang and sat down, saying, "Prince Consort, beyond the forest in front of us is Chiyan Village. This village is considered a large village in the Miao area. I think it is better for us not to offend the people of Chiyan Village."
Gu Xinglang nodded. He came to save his elder brother, so he would naturally not provoke the barbarian slaves in the Miao land.
"Princess," Brother Tang looked at Yu Xiaoxiao who was still chewing horse meat across Gu Xinglang, and seemed to be hesitant to speak.
Yu Xiaoxiao saw Brother Tang looking at her, so she said, "Brother Tang, you called me?"
"No," Brother Tang shook his head quickly.
"Don't worry," Yu Xiao said, "We are not here to fight. If we meet people from Chiyan Village, I will try my best to make friends with them."
Brother Tang shuddered. Is this possible? !
Gu Xinglang looked at his wife and asked Brother Tang, "Can we go around Chiyan Village?" Obviously, the prince consort and Brother Tang had the same idea, so they should just stop making friends with this guy.
Brother Tang shook his head and said, "Prince Consort, taking a detour is not a problem, but if there are so many of us, we will definitely alert the people in Chiyan Village if we enter the forest."
"I asked them to try not to make any noise. Is that okay?" Gu Xinglang asked.
Brother Tang said: "We can only try this, God bless you."
Brother Tang was saying God bless you here, while Yu Xiaoxiao was thinking over there that if she met someone from Chiyan Village, she should make friends with them.
Jiang Zhuojun came over and saw Yu Xiaoxiao still gnawing on the bone. General Jiang frowned slightly. Eating horse meat these days almost hurt his stomach. "Princess, is this horse meat delicious?" General Jiang saw Yu Xiaoxiao gnawing on the bone with relish, and finally couldn't help asking.
"It's delicious," Yu Xiaoxiao nodded.
Jiang Zhuojun sat next to Gu Xinglang and said, "Princess, is there anything that is not delicious?"
Yu Xiaoxiao thought about it and said seriously: "Human flesh."
General Xiao Jiang...well, just pretend he never asked anything.
