Chapter 425: The Demon Concubine Who Brings Trouble to the Nation vs. the Bandit Emperor of the Founding of the Country 36
Ji Liao stopped watching the show and stood up with the help of his cane. He said solemnly, "Keep your voice down so no one can hear you. They are so greedy and unscrupulous. They must have something to rely on. It doesn't matter if they are discovered. It's impossible to go back. You should find a way to get some food."
Guo Yi turned around several times, feeling very annoyed. "It's a famine right now, where can I get food?"
Lin Yuan put away the butcher knife, crossed his arms and watched the fun from the side, mocking: "You officials are so corrupt! Those without money and food will starve to death halfway through the journey. I think we should just disband here and let everyone make a living on their own. If all else fails, just become bandits..."
Ji Yunhuan pinched Lin Yuan fiercely. This guy was really careless with his words. He kept talking about bandits, as if he was afraid that the incident was not big enough.
"Don't talk nonsense! If we disband on the spot, we will become fugitives. Not only us, but also the officers will be guilty. When the arrest warrant is issued, local authorities will search for the fugitives. If we are caught, we will die."
Lin Yuan was not angry even though he was pinched. Instead, he grabbed Ji Yunhuan's hand and leaned towards her secretly, muttering softly, "The government is useless! If you can't catch me, I won't let anything happen to you. And your father and mother, I can protect your whole family."
Ji Yunhuan was thinking about something and didn't notice that she was so close to Lin Yuan. Her hand was still held in Lin Yuan's hand.
She glared at Lin Yuan and said unhappily, "I know that Hero Lin is a hero, but there are so many people here. There are hundreds of prisoners alone, as well as women and children. Can you protect so many people?"
"After all, the world still has the surname Murong, not Lin. Wait until you become the emperor one day before you make such big talk."
What Ji Yunhuan said was extremely outrageous, but no one present reacted. The Ji family had become exiles, so who would still be loyal to the emperor of the Xuanyuan family? They were not fools.
Guo Yi was so overwhelmed that he couldn't care about such a small matter.
Lin Yuan said "Oh" and seemed to be thinking about something. The woman he liked was indeed extraordinary. He only wanted to become a bandit, become the king of Cangshan and protect his brothers, but his woman actually wanted to rebel!
It seems that if he doesn't become emperor, he may not be able to marry the woman he likes.
Pan Ying held the account book and asked the boss carefully, "So what should we do?"
Ji Yunhuan pulled Lin Yuan and suggested, "Go a little further and you will reach Jizhou City. Jizhou City is big and has a prosperous business. We should be able to buy enough food to last us all the way to Yuncheng. Mr. Lin is kind and generous, so I'm sure he will be happy to help."
Lin Yuan looked at the two people's clasped hands, and was so happy that he didn't know what to do. It was just a little food. Once he found Zhao Feitian's treasure, he would be able to buy it with so much food. If all else failed, he would rob the rich and then run away. No one would be able to catch him.
Lin Yuan immediately patted his chest and assured, "Yes, yes, yes! I like to do good things. Leave this to me."
Guo Yi was penniless and had no other options, so he could only agree.
"Then come with me. I'll tell the brothers so we can get to know each other and avoid conflicts."
"Pan Ying, come here and register the number of his carriages and horses. You cannot change it in the future. You cannot let irrelevant people in."
Pan Ying responded and went there immediately. Most of the people Lin Yuan brought were young and middle-aged men. In addition to the men he brought from Cangshan, there were also some people he picked up on the road who insisted on following him to Cangshan.
Aunt Gao jumped off the carriage, holding a lot of fish, meat and white rice in her hands, and piled them in front of Ji Yunhuan.
"Boss Lin has really become rich this time. I don't know where he got such a nice carriage from, and there are so many foods. Those grown men can't cook, so they agreed to let me come with them."
"All of us were picked up by Gang Leader Lin on the road. Less than 30% of us survived. It is said that those who survive a disaster will have good fortune in the future. Anyway, there is no one else at home, so we have nothing to worry about. My husband wants to follow Gang Leader Lin to the south to try his luck."
As Aunt Gao spoke, she quickly built a fire and set up a huge iron pot. Ji Yunhuan wanted to help, but Aunt Gao didn't let her get involved.
"Miss Divine Doctor's hands are used to heal illnesses and save lives. Let me do this rough work. I see that you are all well-mannered and you will definitely not clean up these things. Let me do it."
Ji Yunhuan poured spiritual spring water into the iron pot and said with a smile: "I am not a miracle doctor, I just happen to have some pills to cure your illness, how can they be so precious."
Ruyi and Xiaolanhua also came to help, and soon a sumptuous meal was ready, including fish, meat, vegetables, eggs, and fragrant rice.
There were no tables or chairs in the field, so everyone sat on the ground in a circle around the fire.
The aroma spread far away. On the road of exile, a steamed bun was already delicious, let alone such a delicious meal. However, Lin Yuan brought many people with him, and they looked good at fighting, so no one dared to harass them.
This is the advantage of having more people. Ji Yunhuan usually had to be sneaky when giving his family good food, but now he doesn't have to worry about that.
Xiao Lanhua forced Xia Sanniang to come over, and Xiao Fan followed behind Xia Sanniang, feeling very embarrassed.
Little Orchid sat down on the ground, patted the seat beside her, and acted like a little adult. "Sister Ji said you are guests and asked me to treat you well. If you don't eat, Sister Ji will scold me. Come on and sit down."
Xia Sanniang had a thousand reasons to reject Ji Yunhuan, but she couldn't do anything about such a passionate and lovely girl, so she could only sit down with Xiaofan.
Xiao Lanhua smiled widely, quietly stuffed a piece of candied fruit into Xiaofan's mouth, and said mysteriously, "The adults don't have any, only the children have candied fruit to eat. I'll share it with you, don't show off."
A hint of sweetness spreads, from the mouth all the way to the heart.
Xiao Fan had never tasted anything so sweet. He lived worse than a servant in the second branch of the Ji family. Anyone could bully him. The children of servants were loved by their parents, but he had nothing.
Xia Sanniang and others were busy taking care of themselves and had a hard time in the mansion. It was already difficult for him to survive, so they had no time to coax him, let alone buy him candy.
Xiao Lanhua waved her hand in front of Xiao Fan and asked in confusion, "Is it not delicious? Why don't you say anything?"
Xiao Fan was reluctant to swallow the sweetness in his mouth, and asked puzzledly: "Why are you so nice to me?"
Little Orchid smiled, "You are so funny. A candied fruit is good to you? If you want to eat it, just tell me. I am not a stingy person. My father taught me to be kind to others and share good things with friends. Just reach out your hand and I will give you half a bag, okay?"
