The wheelchair turned, and Xie Zhun stood directly in front of Zheng Ye.
Ning Xi'er naturally wouldn't remain indifferent.
Upon seeing this, the people from the Prince's Mansion and the Duke of Huguo all put down their tools and stood up to gather around.
"What are you doing?!"
"You've gone too far?!"
......
The henchmen bared their teeth and brandished their claws, pushing away anyone blocking their way.
But even one person couldn't push it.
He brandished the whip in his hand, but this time, the person in front of him did not tolerate the whipping, and a guard directly grabbed the whip.
"Smack!"
From diagonally behind, the guard was suddenly struck with even greater force.
It is Meng Yi.
Having stood idly by, watching his henchmen act as mouthpieces, he now felt his authority challenged and decided to personally take action to suppress them...
The guard who was being whipped had a huge gash ripped into the back of his prison uniform, leaving his skin torn and bleeding.
Those around him shielded him behind them, with the prince and princess standing in front of him; no one retreated.
This should be the most serious challenge to Meng Yi's prestige since he took charge of the quarry.
Of course, he wouldn't let it go, so he whipped the whip hard, striking it more than a dozen times.
The guards gathered around, and all the thousands of soldiers resting in the camp, except for the sentries around the perimeter, were brought over.
They surrounded Xie Zhun and others, along with other exiled criminals, in layers.
Eunuch Xu, Xuanfeng, and others protected Xie Zhun, Ning Xi'er, and the Duke of Huguo in the center, even as the surrounding guards and servants were whipped...
Everyone is trying their best to remain restrained.
After all, there are still 100,000 troops stationed nearby; a direct confrontation wouldn't be advantageous for them...
This would only give Yan Lang and Meng Yi a legitimate reason to eliminate them.
Perhaps this is what they are hoping for now.
Such a commotion finally alerted Yan Lang, who was resting in the barracks.
Pushing through the crowd, I asked the two people about their situation...
Yan Lang remained silent, glanced at Zheng Ye, and his gaze slid to Zheng Ye's slightly pale fingertips.
He turned around and lashed out with a whip at one of Meng Yi's henchmen!
The henchmen immediately wailed and knelt on the ground.
She pressed hard on her arm, which was throbbing from the blow, and secretly glanced up to observe Meng Yi's expression.
Meng Yi looked down at the henchmen on the ground with a livid expression.
Yan Lang shouted, "Serve lunch and water on time at noon! Anyone who causes trouble will not be let off lightly!"
After saying that, he looked warningly at the henchmen on the ground, instead of Zheng Ye, Xie Zhun and his group.
The exiled criminals on the field felt a sense of relief.
But then Meng Yi personally helped the henchmen up from the ground, and glared fiercely at the convicts...
The henchmen mouthed silently, "You're all going to die!"
The exiled prisoner who had just fainted was gradually regaining consciousness.
The family members of the exiled prisoners rushed over and kowtowed to Zheng Ye in gratitude.
Zheng Ye reached out to help, but suddenly swayed and was caught by Zheng Chengguang, Eunuch Xu and others.
Xie Zhun stepped forward, and Xuan Feng and the others automatically surrounded Xie Zhun and Zheng Ye in the center, keeping the other exiles outside.
Taking this opportunity, Ning Xi'er immediately took out a water pouch, saying that it was given to her by the old Taoist Xingming before he left, and poured it into Zheng Ye's mouth.
Zheng Ye was indeed thirsty, and after drinking quite a bit, his strength was immediately restored...
Fatigue was also swept away.
Ning Xi'er handed the water pouch to Xie Zhun, urging him to drink more.
Xie Zhun knew Ning Xi'er's abilities and wasn't worried that if he finished his drink, the others wouldn't, so he drank more to conserve his energy.
After drinking, he handed the water pouch back to Ning Xi'er.
However, once she took over, Ning Xi'er had already used her mind to silently feed the majority of it.
This continued, and everyone in the encirclement, including Eunuch Xu, Zheng Chengguang, and Xuanfeng, got to drink some.
Strangely, after so many people had drunk from the water, when I picked up the water bag, I felt there was still quite a bit left inside...
Everyone assumed that the people in front were saving the drinks for the people behind them.
Because of Yan Lang's outburst, the guards became more restrained and kept their distance.
Ning Xi'er could also find opportunities to give some drinks to the other people in the Prince's Mansion and the Duke of Huguo's Mansion.
After drinking, Ning Xi'er put the water pouch back into her spatial storage.
To outsiders, it was as if he had put the water bag back into his clothes.
There were refugees everywhere, and naturally others saw them, but the crowd seemed not to notice, and no one reported them.
In fact, Ning Xi'er did not try to avoid it.
After all, we'll be spending a lot of time together in the future, so it's good to reveal some flaws to distinguish between a human and a ghost.
Like Yan Lang, Ning Xi'er still had some doubts in her heart.
He was clearly the Crown Prince's man, but just now, he could have used that as an excuse to...
But the actions also seemed somewhat protective, as if they were favoring their side...
"Perhaps, Yan Lang can be persuaded..."
When no one was around, Xie Zhun whispered something in Ning Xi'er's ear.
