Chapter 238 [Silly and Sweet Prince Consort]
Jiang Lili was stunned. It was not a good opportunity to have guests coming at this critical moment. The navy of the Mi Kingdom could attack at any time.
@Jiang Lili: There's nothing I can do. They're all guests, so I have to entertain them. I'm going down the mountain now. Please arrange for the villagers to entertain them first. I'll be there soon.
@Master Liao: My mother and I are planning to take the villagers to a stall selling coconut juice, set up a large pot, and prepare coconut chicken hot pot. It's just that there are a lot of fishermen this time, 70 people and three boats, and some of them look unfriendly to me.
Jiang Lili frowned, [Could it be that the navy of the Mi Kingdom has already infiltrated this place?]
@Master Liao: My intuition doesn't suggest that, but I'm afraid they'll stir up trouble too.
She and Guan Yue walked out of the tent with serious expressions while looking at the message from Master Liao.
Jiang Lili walked out of the tent and was attracted by the orderly footsteps coming from the center of the camp. She looked from afar and saw Xin Che standing on the high platform of the camp training his troops.
On the training ground, 700 bodyguards dressed in gray uniforms were lined up and waiting.
Xin Che's dark black robe fluttered in the wind, and the well-cut shape of the robe outlined his tall and straight figure.
He calmly waved the dark blue pennant in his hand. The flag embroidered with a tiger fluttered in the wind, and it seemed that the momentum of a tiger was really coming out of the flag.
In an instant, the seven hundred people under the platform seemed to be pulled by invisible silk threads, some moving forward quickly, some moving back steadily, changing their formations smoothly, and the scene was shocking.
Guan Yue looked at Xin Che who was standing calmly on the podium. Well, although she was unwilling to admit it, this cheap husband that her Li Li had found was really awesome. In just over 10 days, her 700 bodyguards who came out of a bandit's nest were trained to a state that even she was unfamiliar with.
Guan Yue said to Jiang Lili, "We need to inform the prince about the situation of that group of fishermen. Aren't his elite soldiers disguised as members of the He family caravan scattered around Yeli Village?"
Jiang Lili looked up and was wondering how to call Xin Che?
However, she had only stood here for a while when Xin Che on the podium locked his eyes on Jiang Lili.
Then he tiptoed down from the high platform and landed in front of Jiang Lili. The stern expression on his face softened unconsciously, and his bright eyes fixed on Jiang Lili's slightly furrowed brows. "What happened?"
Jiang Lili quickly told Xin Che about the situation.
Xin Che frowned, "In that case, why not let the Xin family soldiers act as vendors and cooks to help with the situation?"
After he finished speaking, he took out a tortoise-shell tiger talisman from his waist and handed it to Jiang Lili: "This is the tiger talisman that can command the Xin family army."
Xin Che vaguely guessed that Jiang Lili had a way to immediately notify the people down the mountain.
Jiang Lili and Guan Yue were both surprised when they saw the tiger talisman that Xin Chetong delivered to them.
Xin Che looked back at the changing military formations, stuffed the tiger talisman into Jiang Lili's hand, and instructed, "If anything happens, set off signal fireworks to call me, or send Liefeng."
After saying that, he used his Qinggong skills to fly back to the platform.
A handsome man with a jade face and elegant clothes.
"Let's go!"
Jiang Lili held the tiger talisman, which felt warm in her palm, and looked away.
She gave the tiger talisman in a red envelope to Master Liao, and asked Master Liao to take the Xin family army to "entertain" their repeat customers.
Guan Yue called over the four patrolling members of the Guanjiazhai, "They will escort you. I have to stay here so I can keep you informed if there's any news."
Jiang Lili was about to praise Guan Yue for her thoughtfulness when she heard Guan Yue's next words: "Xiaopang has bought breakfast, remember to feed it to me!"
Jiang Lili: ...
Jiang Lili was escorted down the mountain by the patrol team of Guanjiazhai and headed towards Cangsha Ferry.
When she arrived at Cangsha Ferry, small stalls had already been set up in the half of the area occupied by Yeli Village. A group of unfamiliar faces were opening coconuts, setting up pots and fires, and entertaining fishermen. Everything looked very orderly.
“Crack!”
Jiang Lili caught a glimpse of several big brothers opening coconuts with alarming efficiency. In just a few moves, they had skillfully used the coconut opening tools she had bought wholesale to open a row of coconuts like on an assembly line.
The brothers who helped Yin Zhen cut ingredients and prepared dishes skillfully and quickly. The kitchen knives seemed to have life in their hands, just like professional chefs.
Jiang Lili was secretly shocked. Could it be that these guys were the elite soldiers of the Xin family army? They were too comprehensive!
I don't know who actually made a cloth flag and wrote the three words "Bifengtang" on it with a brush. It was vigorous and powerful.
Looking at it this way, the overall atmosphere of Cangsha Wharf really gives the impression of an open-air food court.
At this time, the group of fishermen were sitting at the dock, waiting like old men, smoking water pipes and chatting, and from time to time commenting on the "villagers" who were cooking and preparing food.
"Miss Jiang!"
The captain of the fishing boat, Captain Chen, whom she had met before, walked towards her, rubbing his hands.
Xin Jiajun, who was opening coconuts or preparing food, seemed to be still busy with his work, but he pricked up his ears and focused all his attention on Jiang Lili.
Several people exchanged glances.
Miss Jiang? That little girl is the legendary Crown Prince's Consort?
She is so beautiful and has the temperament of a fairy. She is a perfect match for their prince!
It's just that I seem too kind and easy to talk to, and I feel like I'm easily bullied...
Several undercover members of the Xin family army were now paying close attention to the situation on Jiang Lili's side, fearing that Jiang Lili would be bullied.
After all, they have seen everything, living and dead, right?
It is obvious that many of these fishermen are not good people.
"Captain Chen, you brought so many people to take care of our Shelter Hall's business this time!"
Jiang Lili showed a typical innocent smile: "Then I have to thank you very much!"
She said enthusiastically: "Come, I'll give you a glass of coconut juice!"
Jiang Lili winked at Master Liao as he approached, "Dabao, go get me a cup of coconut juice with shredded coconut. I want the freshest, most filling ones."
"Okay~"
Master Liao, clutching an open coconut, used his short legs to go find the pirates, who were also disguised as villagers. After persistent practice, his small frame was finally able to hold a coconut steadily.
Chen Huozhang's expression was clearly a little uncomfortable. "Hahaha, I just mentioned it to them when I returned to the village. They said that going fishing in the open sea would allow them to eat, drink, and sleep well on the south coast of Haizhou Island. They didn't believe me, saying that the south coast was a deserted place. Now they've opened their eyes."
Jiang Lili carefully looked at the expression of Captain Chen. Captain Chen looked a little coerced. It seemed that he was no longer the leader among these 70 people, and there was someone else leading the group.
Jiang Lili glanced at the three fishing boats docked at the pier and asked, "How many fresh fish did you bring this time?"
