"Are you all deaf? I want to eat meat!" The gray earthen bowl was smashed on the ground and broke into several pieces. The perpetrator was crossing his arms and looking at the several dishes of clear soup and vegetable steamed buns on the table with an unhappy expression.
His face was very long.
The people at the dinner table were all immersed in eating, as if they didn't hear her, and ignored her.
But the gray-haired old woman next to me couldn't listen to it, and said apologetically: "Girl, we are a poor family, and it is rare to have a bite of meat all year round, so you can make do with some, so as not to be hungry for a while, which is also a hardship."
If you want to eat meat, I will ask the old man to go to the mountain to set a trap later, maybe I can catch pheasants or something, and there will be meat to eat at night."
"Ha," Iya chuckled, raised her head and glanced at everyone, "Everyone said that Daye is a prosperous country and the people are peaceful. I thought that Daye was so rich, but it turns out that even eating a meal of meat is a luxury."
"You don't need an outsider to take care of Daye's affairs!" A man who was immersed in eating finally couldn't help it anymore, raised his head and retorted coldly.
"Why is it none of my business? Maybe..." She looked around, covered her lips and chuckled, "These will all be the territory of my Mugher tribe from now on."
"You have a nice thought, but aren't you in our hands now?"
Iya held her face in her hands and looked at the handsome, cold and arrogant man in black beside her, her eyes curled up with a smile: "I voluntarily follow you, otherwise do you think you can catch me and successfully leave Xizhou? Ha,
Stop dreaming. Isn’t that right, Your Highness Prince Ding?”
"His Royal Highness Prince Ding? The old man has eyes but cannot recognize Mount Tai..." The old man and woman next to him suddenly opened their eyes in shock, trembling and ready to kneel down to salute.
The shadow guard standing by quickly helped them up. Zero One glared at Iya angrily and said, "Old man, don't be fooled by this witch. She is just a lunatic, talking nonsense all day long.
Yes. She still calls herself 'my king'. Where can we find a woman to be a prince in Daye?"
When Ling Yi said this, the old couple thought about it carefully, and then they believed Ling Yi's words. However, after being frightened by this, they couldn't help but become a little cautious.
Iya picked up her chopsticks and plucked the only two green vegetables left in the bowl, curled her lips and said, "How far is it from here to Shengjing? You have to choose steep and remote roads along the way to hurry up.
It’s been a long time and it seems like I’m still wandering around in the mountains.”
Mo Jingxiao, who had always kept silent, put down his bowl, raised his head and looked at Iya coldly, lightly opened his thin lips and said, "If you want to go back to Xizhou, I will let you go back."
"Yes, yes!" Ling Yi clapped his hands and said gloatingly, "You can eat as much meat as you want then, and you don't have to follow us to eat wild fruits and game and drink mountain spring water."
Iya immediately blinked her beautiful eyes and pouted and said: "Now that we are here, I won't go back. I still have to negotiate with your Emperor Daye to get him to approve the marriage between me and your master."
What about the wedding?"
"I won't marry you." Mo Jingxiao said bluntly, raised his head and looked outside, "It's still early, let's get up quickly, and we can still go some distance."
"Yes." The shadow guards quickly packed up and saluted, and replenished some dry food at the old farmer's house.
"Grandpa, take this, thank you for the hospitality." Before leaving, Lingyi stuffed a handful of broken silver into the old farmer's hands, smiled and said softly, "Take it, go buy some meat to eat, and improve your life.
"
The old farmer has been dealing with coins all his life. When he touched silver for the first time, his hands were trembling: "Is this true? Oh, my wife, we have met a noble person, we have met a noble person!"
The two old men were so excited that they talked incoherently. Iya leaned against the doorframe with a sarcastic look on her face: "You have a lot of banknotes on you. What's wrong with throwing one to someone? How about you take out a few pieces of broken silver?"
At Zero One, she rolled her eyes: "What do you know? They have never seen much of the world in their lives. If you really want to give them a banknote, let alone use it, I'm afraid it will cause unreasonable disaster. When the time comes, people will use their behavior
The money was withheld because the source of the money was unknown, and there was no place to cry."
Iya waved her hand and smiled mockingly: "Stingy is stingy, don't say you don't have these things."
Zero One didn't bother to reply to her, rolled his eyes and walked out of the door.
Iya dusted off her dress, swayed her waist and followed her, shouting at Zero One's back: "Hey——"
"What are you doing?" Zero didn't even reply, his tone was obviously impatient.
Iya raised her eyelids, her figure was graceful, and there was a confident smile on her lips: "Do you believe it, it won't be long before you have to respectfully call me mistress?"
The footsteps suddenly stopped, Ling Yi was silent for a moment, turned his head and glanced at Iya coldly: "Based on these words, you are not worthy of me. Compared with the third lady, you are far behind!
"
"What's so great about the one named Ning?" Iya fiddled with her bright red fingernails and sneered, "I will let her kneel at my feet and congratulate your father and I on our happy marriage."
Ling Yi shrugged and also laughed: "I hope this will happen one day. I hope it's not you who kneels at the feet of the third lady and congratulates her and our father for their happy marriage."
"snort--"
Iya flicked her sleeves and walked towards Mo Jingxiao's team in front.
"Sir, after climbing over this mountain, we will reach Min'an Road. If we take a shortcut from Min'an Road, we can reach Xizhou Prefecture in less than three days. By then..."
"Min'an Road, Xizhou Prefecture?" Iya heard these two terms as soon as she approached, and finally couldn't help but frown, "Aren't these the border provincial capitals of Daye? It's such a long day on the road.
How could you still be wandering around the border?"
After saying that, her eyes suddenly widened and she raised her finger to point at Mo Jingxiao, as if something suddenly occurred to her: "Is it possible that you have no intention of returning to Shengjing at all?"
Zero One burst into laughter: "Haha, it's so rare. It's so rare that you finally reacted now!"
Iya immediately panicked, ran over and stopped in front of Mo Jingxiao's horse: "Where are you going?"
If Mo Jingxiao doesn't go to Shengjing, won't all the painstaking arrangements before be in vain?
Zero One had the upper hand in a rare conversation with Iya. He immediately lay down on the horse and said proudly: "Hey, don't forget, you are the king of the Mugel tribe, and our father is the king of Daye. Where are we going?
, why would I tell you, an outsider?"
Iya pulled the horse and got on it: "I want to go back!"
Mo Jingxiao signaled Ling Yi with a look, and Ling Yi happily flew over and put a knife on Iya's neck.
"I asked you to leave just now but you refused to leave. Now, you can't leave even if you want to."
Mo Jingxiao withdrew his gaze and looked at the road ahead resolutely: "Let's go!"
