“Hey~~”
Magistrate He sighed softly.
He thought Emperor Wu of Liang was crazy and wanted to go to war at this time, but it turned out that General Xiao was preparing to rebel.
He was not surprised at all that the Xiao family rebelled. There were so many private soldiers of the Xiao family in Brahma City, and Emperor Wu of Liang dared to attack the Xiao family so blatantly. Isn't this forcing the Xiao family to rebel?
He Zhifu looked at Xiao Yunzhan with a worried look on his face.
"Whether or not there's a rebellion isn't the most important thing right now. The key is that the people have no water to drink and no food to eat. If this continues, they won't be able to hold out for much longer. Pingliang City will become a dead city."
"You have so many troops with you now, how are you going to support them? If you can't pay them, I'm afraid it will be a long-term solution..."
Prefect He looked at the endless crowd of people and was extremely curious about how Xiao Yunzhan had brought all these people here.
It looked like the soldiers and horses did not look like they were starving. If Xiao Yunzhan could solve the people's food and drink problems, he would lead all the people in the city to rebel together. The imperial court would not care about them anyway.
The people of Pingliang City originally supported General Xiao. The people on the border only recognized the general and not the emperor. The general could protect them, and the emperor was far away, so who cared who the emperor was.
"Master He, don't worry about this. We have the protection of the God King, so you don't need to worry about food and drink."
Xiao Yunzhan smiled slightly, "When we have dinner later, Lord He will see the miracle..."
"Oh!" Lord He's eyes lit up. "Then I'll follow General Xiao tonight to broaden my horizons."
The people's food and drink is the top priority. As long as this issue is resolved, he will have no worries at all.
If the imperial court cannot solve the problem, but General Xiao can, then don't blame the people for supporting General Xiao.
Lord He was also extremely hungry, otherwise he would not have dared to join the rebellion even if he had ten times the courage.
"There are several empty houses near the government office. General Xiao can arrange for everyone to rest in them tonight so that we can spend the night together and discuss important plans."
"Okay, let's go now."
"Okay, okay, General Xiao, please..."
“.....”
........
The stagnant cavalry team moved forward again.
Lin Yiran heard what Xiao Yunzhan and He Zhifu said and pursed her lips slightly.
Since they all have a yard to stay in tonight, she has to prepare a big table of delicious food to satisfy her cravings.
Lin Yiran and the female members of the Xiao family were invited to stay in the guest rooms of the prefectural government office.
Magistrate He specially picked out the most refreshing courtyard for the women of the Xiao family, and then took Xiao Yunzhan directly to the study.
Lin Yiran prepared two buckets of water for Madam Xiao and the others to wash up, then looked at the delicious food in the space, thinking about what to prepare for dinner tonight.
Suddenly, the green bubble alarm started beeping.
Lin Yiran clicked on the green bubble and saw General Xiao’s avatar flashing again.
“Hey~”
Lin Yiran sighed helplessly. She didn't want to order any food for General Xiao at all. This old man was too wasteful.
But General Xiao was a mid-level foodie, and he would keep asking for more until he got what he wanted. The alarm kept ringing, and Lin Yiran couldn't stand it, it was too noisy.
I clicked on General Xiao's profile picture, and saw that the words flashing on General Xiao's dialog box were almost too crowded to fit.
"The Wanderings of a Silly Old Man - Produced by Xiao Guoliang. He's craving a seafood feast! He wants king crab, abalone, prawns, mantis shrimp, razor clams... Please order for him..."
Lin Yiran's mouth twitched as she clicked on the takeaway shopping mall. The page displayed various seafood dishes, in order: stir-fried king crab with chives, crab legs with scallion oil, boiled nine-segment shrimp, steamed razor clams with garlic, braised prawns, garlic-flavored mantis shrimp, abalone and chicken pot...
Each dish is not cheap, and each one has a label that General Xiao particularly wants...
Lin Yiran rolled her eyes speechlessly.
General Xiao ordered all kinds of seafood that he had never eaten in his life. It was as if he knew the Dragon King.
Lin Yiran complained a lot, but still ordered the same thing to the foodie General Xiao.
The old man spent more than 30,000 yuan on a meal for her. It was really a sin.
........
"Oh my god, Dad, there really are these seafood dishes!"
Xiao Yunchao widened his eyes and looked at the seafood feast that suddenly appeared on the table.
Seafood is only available in coastal areas. Their Xiao family guards the northwest Brahma City all year round and has no access to seafood at all.
It’s not that I have never eaten it. I ate abalone a few times when the palace held a celebration banquet when I returned to Beijing.
Foods like king crabs, which are difficult to preserve, can only be eaten regularly by those in the palace. Military officers like them don't have that luxury.
He just told his father the story of the Dragon King that he had read in an old storybook, and then his father started clamoring for seafood and kept asking him what seafood dishes he had.
He talked about the seafood dishes he had heard of before, but he didn't expect...
General Xiao smelled the delicious seafood feast, and his mustache twitched with joy.
"I want to eat, and I can't have it. How many times have I told you, kid, don't take advantage of me? If you call me daddy, I can give you an extra bite..."
General Xiao rolled his eyes at Xiao Yunchao, grabbed a piece of abalone, and sucked it into his mouth.
“Tender and fragrant, delicious...hahaha..."
Xiao Yunchao looked at his father eating heartily and swallowed his saliva greedily.
Except for not being able to see their families, they are living a life like gods.
This piece of open space has expanded to two acres. Except for the lack of four walls, they have everything that a normal house should have.
They even have things that other houses don't have, such as the lamp that can be lit without fire. As long as it is exposed to the sun during the day, it will remain bright at night.
It is brighter than a night pearl, but not as big as a night pearl. I really don’t know how his father made this thing.
"Silly boy, come here, I'll give you a bite..."
General Xiao looked at Xiao Yunchao's dazed expression, glanced at the increasingly dark sky, and reluctantly grabbed a crab leg and handed it to Xiao Yunchao.
"Thanks, Dad!"
Xiao Yunchao grinned, took the crab legs with both hands, and asked tentatively,
"Dad, we have this light that's always on. Why don't you go out of the mountain? Your family must be looking for you like crazy."
He didn't know how many days they stayed in the mountains before he recovered.
But when he woke up, they had been in the mountains for more than ten days, and including the time before that, it had been at least a month.
He couldn't even imagine how worried his family would be if they hadn't heard from them for a month.
Maybe their reports have been reported back to the capital.
