Chapter 29 The Prince Consort Surrenders
"Axun, this is called 'the mantis stalks the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind'!"
Xie Lan said proudly.
Shen Xun clapped his hands politely, "Alan is really amazing."
The two men returned to the team quietly. With others providing cover, no one noticed their whereabouts.
At night, the team arrived at the post station to rest. Su Yang had his meal and went out to rest, but saw several people roasting birds.
Su Yang looked at it several times. The children thought he wanted to eat it too, so they held up a skewer for him and said, "Uncle, here you go! This is roasted sparrow. It smells delicious!"
He didn't answer and turned away.
I hope it’s not homing pigeons that we eat.
After he left, Shen Xun came out from the darkness. The children swarmed around her and gave her the roasted sweet potatoes. "Auntie, here's a sweet potato for you. It smells so good and sweet!"
"Be careful when you eat, and remember to put out the fire after you finish eating. Go back to your room and sleep."
Shen Xun gave them another handful of candy and went into the house.
She shared the sweet potatoes with others. Shen Yunzheng tore off the charred skin and took a bite impatiently.
"Hiss, it's so hot!"
"Eat slowly," Shen Xun wiped the dust off the corners of his mouth, "No one is going to snatch it from you."
Shen Yunzheng said vaguely: "Yes, my eldest brother will snatch it from me."
Qi Yunzhou, who was suddenly called out: “???”
You are sitting in the house and the pot falls from the sky.
Ignoring his elder brother's murderous gaze, Shen Yunzheng gave the juicy piece to Shen Xun like he was offering a treasure. "Mom, I've tasted it, it's the sweetest here."
Shen Xun ate it with a smile, took it and turned around to see that Xie Lan and the other two were also holding it eagerly, waiting for her to enjoy it.
Okay.
This sweet trouble.
"By the way, Mom, I also want to see your magic trick of making something appear and disappear. How about making a camera appear?"
Last night, Shen Yunzheng took Chen Xun to the warehouse of Longao Village. In front of him, Chen Xun put all the things into the space.
"I see you want to take a picture."
Shen Xun revealed his purpose in one sentence. Shen Yunzheng smiled and did not refute.
Shen Xun had no choice but to get the camera. When she saw that the photo paper was gone, she went to get some more.
"Huh?"
She looked at the box of photo paper and saw how full it was. She remembered she had already used half of it.
Shen Xun's imagination was sparked: "Could this be a treasure chest?"
But before she could be happy for two seconds, a few big words appeared on the box: Feel free to use it, this system will provide you with photo paper for a lifetime!
OK, it turns out it was the system that did it.
The further they went towards Youzhou, the colder the weather became. Fortunately, Chen Xun had asked the women of Longao Village to prepare cotton clothes, and everyone changed their clothes at the post station.
There were pregnant women, elderly people and children in the Longao Village team. Chen Xun found a lot of thermal underwear in the space and asked them to wear it.
She cannot organize items in her space with her mind and can only do so manually. Even she herself does not know how many surprises are in the space.
There were a lot of things thrown in there when she was on a mission, so she wouldn't be surprised if she found a bomb one day.
When Shen Yunzheng proposed to take Long Aozhai to Youzhou, no one was left behind, from the eighty-year-old man to the three-year-old child.
Even though the road was bitterly cold, no one complained about being tired. Shen Xun was really curious as to why these people were so devoted to Shen Yunzheng.
Aunt Bai, who was in charge of the kitchen, came over and explained to Shen Xun, "That's because the king... oh no, it was the young master. The young master saved our lives. If it weren't for the young master, everyone in our village would have died at the hands of the bandits."
They were originally villagers of the same village. Later, bandits came into the village to rob. When they failed to steal the property, they wanted to massacre the entire village.
Fortunately, Shen Yunzheng and his men passed by there and rescued them.
It was mainly the secret guards led by Shen Yunzheng who rescued people. When Shen Yunzheng left Qinghe County, Qi Yunxi asked the secret guards to protect him secretly.
Look, the two people who were squatting there eating in their big flowery jackets have now become Mingwei.
"We were grateful for the young master's life-saving grace, so we went up to Longao Mountain with him and robbed the rich to help the poor."
"I saw robbing the rich," Shen Xun wondered, "but what about helping the poor?"
Before arriving at Longao Mountain, she heard on the road that the reputation of Longao Village was not very good.
From wealthy businessmen to ordinary people, no one spoke well of Long Aozhai.
Aunt Bai said confidently, "Aren't we just 'poor'?"
Shen Xun: “…”
Yes, that makes sense!
"By the way, Aunt Bai, why are you here?"
"Ouch," Aunt Bai slapped her head, "I forgot, I'm here to collect a debt."
After saying that, she rushed towards King Hu angrily, "Don't run, I saw you taking the money, return it quickly!"
King Hu was about to collapse.
He just treated a prisoner and received some silver, but before he could even warm it in his hands, the money was taken away. Wow!
Shen Xun shook her head helplessly. A gust of cold wind blew, and she felt a sharp sting on her face, so she quickly put on a mask.
"Alan, stop whipping me and distribute the masks to everyone."
I don’t know what happened these days, but Xie Lan seemed to have his Ren and Du meridians opened up, and his martial arts skills improved by leaps and bounds.
Whenever I have a break, I find a place nearby to practice martial arts.
The three children who were not very close to him also surrounded him and asked him to teach them martial arts.
Xie Lan came over with his three children, took the masks, and went to distribute them. Qi Yunzhou and the other two followed him eagerly.
Shen Xun said sourly: "I also know martial arts, why don't you let me teach you?"
Qi Yunzhou and the other two paused, Shen Yunzheng rolled up his sleeves with a bitter face, and let Shen Xun see the bruises on his arms.
"Mom," Shen Yunzheng said resentfully, "If what you mean by 'teach' is to make me a punching bag and let me grow up by being beaten, then forget it."
Life is not easy, he cherishes his life!
Shen Xun was embarrassed for a moment.
Well, she is really not suitable to teach people martial arts.
Su Yang rubbed his cheeks that were hurt by the wind. He saw that after the people from Longao Village put on a strange thing, they stopped complaining about the cold, and he suddenly became curious.
"want to?"
Su Song glanced at him.
Su Yang shook his head, "No, Master, I was wondering whether they were going into exile or just for fun."
As a prisoner, his life was more comfortable than that of an official.
Su Song sighed, "Don't think about it anymore. Wait, Master will come over."
When he came back, he had a stack of masks in his hand. Su Yang was still refusing to accept them, but when Su Song forced him to put them on, he stopped saying anything.
Although there is still some draft, it is much warmer than before.
When the other prisoners saw this, they all put it on, and only they felt out of place in the group.
They looked at each other, and finally pushed forward the Grand Princess's husband, He Changqing, as a representative to talk to the person in charge of Longao Village.
"Go find my mother," Shen Yunzheng waved his hand, "My mother has the final say."
He Changqing responded and turned to look for Shen Xun. After meeting him, he exchanged a few pleasantries and then directly stated his purpose.
"The Prince Consort wants to join Longao Village?"
He Changqing nodded, "Yes."
Shen Xun took a sip of hot tea and declined politely, “I’m afraid my Longao Village is too small to accommodate so many people.”
