Chapter 327 My Family is Poor
Nu Jiaolong and the people around him have already gotten used to this Leng Hall Master in the past few days. Upon hearing his words, they flattered him in the familiar way, flattering him so much that Leng Feng wished he could treat them as his own brothers.
However, Shen Ning did not look at the right protector, but stared at the person standing calmly behind the right protector.
The man was wearing a mask, but she still recognized him. It was Xu Zhiyi.
Xu Zhiyi and the Second Prince were in the same group, and they were also closely connected to the Tianxin Sect. Therefore, Shen Ning was already a little cautious. When she saw the masked man with a familiar figure, she quickly recognized that it was Xu Zhiyi.
He also wants to go to Liaodong?
You must have not held your fart well!
There must be someone around Xu Zhiyi. Shen Ning didn't want to be noticed, so she quickly looked away and diligently played the role of a small minion under the minion.
But what was unexpected was that after the mobilization meeting, the right protector called over the White Tiger Hall Master Leng Feng.
"Master, this is Leng Feng, the leader of our White Tiger Hall. He's an absolutely loyal man. This time, he will lead the others to do the work for you, okay?"
Xu Zhiyi looked at the rough and fierce man in front of him, but with clear eyes, from behind his mask. He paused and nodded, "Okay."
So a moment later, Leng Feng excitedly announced to Shen Ning and his newly acquired "confidants": "We've hooked up with a big shot!"
"The important person is of noble status. You don't need to know anything extraneous. Don't ask any questions. Just call him 'Master' and do whatever he tells you to do. Do you understand?"
Leng Feng patted Chen Ning's shoulders several times: "Brothers, follow me, Old Leng, and work hard. With my promotion in the future, you will have a bright future."
So... are you going to follow Xu Zhiyi?
It's getting darker under the light!
Shen Ning cupped her hands and flattered him with a smile: "We know we didn't follow the wrong person."
So, soon, Chen Ning, Nu Jiaolong and the others followed Leng Feng into the grain transport team of the Daxuan Dynasty and became the "close followers" of the eunuch supervising the army.
Of course, the eunuchs supervising the army were just a cover, they obeyed the orders of the "master" Xu Zhiyi.
Looking at the soft armor on her body, Shen Ning sighed in her heart: Even she herself didn't expect that she would be here now, who else could have thought of it?
Xu Zhiyi wanted to catch her, but he never imagined that she was right under his nose. Look, she was even responsible for cooking and delivering meals to him!
"Have you been cooking all the meals these days?"
Xu Zhiyi looked at the letter in his hand and asked without raising his head.
He had lived a life of luxury since childhood and rarely worked in the army, so he despised the food in the army.
Originally, he could only endure it, but he didn't expect that after transferring the people from the White Tiger Hall of Tianxin Sect to his side, he learned from the upright White Tiger Hall Master that he had a younger brother who was very good at cooking.
She is a good cook and is his confidant.
"He was one of the first people to follow our Lao Leng. He's reliable."
Xu Zhiyi had vaguely heard of Leng Feng, the leader of the White Tiger Hall, before. He knew that this man was famous for his uprightness and righteousness, and that he was straightforward and could not hide anything. That was why he chose someone from the White Tiger Hall to do the job.
When he heard that this was another member of the Tianxin Sect who was "the earliest to follow", he nodded and asked someone to take care of his meals.
Of course, Xu Zhiyi would not trust others easily. He remained calm on the surface, but he had his secret guards keep an eye on the people from Baihu Hall for several days. Only then did he feel a little relieved.
As for the meals sent by this young boy, he would test them for poison and then make the other party eat them with him in front of him. He was very careful.
Every time Chen Ning saw him being so cautious, she would silently sneer: How many bad things must he have done to have to live so cautiously?
She also wanted to take the opportunity of staying with Xu Zhiyi to arrive in Liaodong safely, so of course she would not poison him now. That was why every time Xu Zhiyi asked her to eat with him, Shen Ning would swing her chopsticks and eat as quickly as possible, regardless of whether her master Xu Zhiyi had enough to eat.
On the first day, Xu Zhiyi was obviously not mentally prepared. He watched helplessly as the small guy almost finished up the four dishes and a soup. In between picking up the dishes, he was distracted and read a note. When he stretched out his chopsticks again, he found that the plate was empty.
So the next day, he specifically told the little guy to prepare double the amount of food... But he didn't expect that although the little boy was not big, he had a really big appetite.
Whenever he was distracted by something, half of the food on the designated plate would disappear.
It is still the same today.
Xu Zhiyi glanced at the letter brought by his personal attendant, then turned back and found that the plate was almost empty again.
He paused, then reluctantly put down his chopsticks and looked at the boy opposite him: "Are you...always hungry?"
That’s right!
In order to eat more of Xu Zhiyi's food, Shen Ning didn't eat the last meal... Of course, the food over there was not as good as the one here.
So why leave the delicious food alone?
As she thought this, she showed a shy expression on her face. She lowered her head and said pitifully, "My family was very poor before, and I almost starved to death. Now when I see food, I always feel that I can't eat enough. Uncle, are you angry?"
The boy seemed to be in the voice changing period. He looked clean, fair and tender, but his duck voice and the way he always said "I" and "Uncle" made Xu Zhiyi's forehead hurt.
He raised his hand: "I'm not angry, go ahead."
Just as Shen Ning was about to speak, she couldn't help but burp. Meeting Xu Zhiyi's speechless gaze, she chuckled and said, "Will you eat the rest, sir?"
Xu Zhiyi looked at the leftovers that were messed up by the chopsticks and sighed, "I'm not eating anymore."
"Then I'll eat it all..."
Xu Zhiyi was hungry again.
When it was night, whether he was truly relieved or didn't want to go hungry anymore, he smiled and said, "You go out first. I'll eat by myself today."
When Shen Ning heard this, she became anxious and immediately said, “This won’t work!”
Facing Xu Zhiyi's suddenly furrowed brows, she said seriously, "Our hall master said that he let me try it because he was afraid that I would poison it. Please wait a minute, I will try it first and then you can eat it, otherwise the hall master will scold me."
“Just trying a bite.”
Xu Zhiyi was a cautious person, so he didn't try to stop him and looked up to signal him to take action.
Shen Ning immediately picked up the chopsticks with a smile.
Xu Zhiyi originally thought that it was just a mouthful... However, seeing this rather pleasant-looking young man first lick his chopsticks, then rummaging through each plate before picking up a bite to eat... Xu Zhiyi's forehead veins throbbed.
Then, the young man put down his chopsticks with an innocent look on his face and said with a smile, "Master, you can eat now."
Xu Zhiyi took a deep breath and smiled: "I'm suddenly not hungry anymore. Next time I'll let someone else deliver it. You don't have to come."
The boy's eyes were filled with confusion and hurt: "Why, sir, is it because I didn't serve you well enough?"
Xu Zhiyi thought of the way he had just sucked on his chopsticks and stirred the food in the dish with those saliva-soaked chopsticks. He used all his life's restraint and forced out a smile: "No..."
Just then, there was a sudden noisy noise outside.
"Someone attacked the camp..."
