Su Qian's gaze swept over everyone present, and she asked calmly, "You risked your lives for him, but he doesn't trust you."
Are you still willing to stay by his side?
Even if you don't think about yourselves, what about your families?
Do you expect them to worry about you all the time?
Chang An looked at Su Qian and had to admit that her words had struck a chord with them.
The human heart is most vulnerable to temptation: "Do you really have to do this?"
Su Qian shrugged and said, "Aren't you curious?"
How could they not be curious? This was a matter of life and death.
Chang An took a deep breath and said, "I will wait here for three days, and after three days..."
Su Qian waved her hand and said, "If I can persuade Xiao Lin to kill you or arrest your family members, you will listen to me."
"If it didn't happen, what about the things you mentioned, young lady?"
"Then I'll give you some food."
Chang An: "..." Could this girl please not be so blunt?
They have a shame too!
Seeing that Chang An remained silent, Su Qian smiled and looked at him, saying, "I'll make sure you're well-fed, and you can even send someone to tell Xiao Lin that I'm plotting against you."
Chang An took a deep breath and said, "No need. My brothers and I will stay here. Please prepare three days' worth of provisions for us."
Su Qian nodded and asked, "How much will you eat these next few days?"
The deputy general opened his mouth, but was glared at coldly by Chang An, "One hundred bushels will suffice."
Su Qian frowned as she looked at him and asked, "What have you been eating these days?"
Hundred Stones?
Then you can only make porridge.
It's still thin porridge.
These people marched all the way, eating only thin porridge. How could they possibly fill their stomachs?
Looking at the people in the tent who were so thin and pale from hunger, Su Qian suddenly felt a pang of heartache.
A hero capable of leading out an army of zombies can't even get a decent meal...
She took a deep breath and said, "I will bring the grain over immediately."
Su Qian vanished in a flash, and only then did the lieutenants below her speak, "General, why aren't the soldiers well-fed?"
Chang An shook his head and said, "Survival is not easy. I would not do this if I had no other choice."
He felt guilty for accepting the grain.
The lieutenant frowned, stepped forward, and advised, "General, since His Majesty has not prepared any provisions for us, why should we..."
Chang An glared at him and said, "How dare you say such a thing?" After a pause, he remembered the bet he had just made with Su Qian and said dejectedly, "Let's see what His Majesty decides first."
"Yes." Seeing that Chang An was somewhat relenting, the deputy general said no more.
Too much advice can easily backfire.
Su Qian carrying the grain soon appeared in front of the gathering place.
The patrolling soldier almost dropped his jaw when he saw Su Qian's appearance. Was that a wild boar?
Four or five wild boars, each weighing two or three hundred pounds, were carried on Su Qian's back as she walked shakily toward them. If you didn't look closely, you wouldn't even notice that there was a person underneath the wild boars.
Upon hearing the report from his subordinates, Chang An hurriedly stepped out of the tent and saw Su Qian effortlessly tossing several wild boars onto the ground, raising a cloud of dust.
Su Qian stretched her shoulders and said to the leading soldier, "You guys process the wild boar, make soup from the bones, and stir-fry the rest."
As for oil or anything like that, she hadn't prepared any.
The soldier readily agreed.
They were finally able to have a full meal.
Chang An wanted to say a few words to Su Qian, but in the blink of an eye, she disappeared again. When he turned around again, he saw her carrying a large bunch of vegetables back.
"Just eating meat isn't enough. I'll get you some potatoes later so we can braise them with the meat."
There's also rice; I'll make porridge for you.
Take good care of your stomach and intestines.
