Chapter 283 He is quite stupid
Huo Yu coaxed him softly, "It will be ready soon. I'll bring it in for you. Eat something before you go to sleep."
Ning Yan nodded and said, "Okay."
Upon hearing this, Huo? lowered his head and kissed him, then went out to bring him breakfast.
After going out, I saw Ye Buli coming, followed by Shang Chenyi, and Mogalina walking in front.
Huo Yu greeted Mogalina, then looked at Ye Buli and asked, "Why did you come here to eat our simple meal?"
"You're not the one who cooks these simple meals." Ye Buli snorted.
Huo said proudly, "Those are the ingredients I provided."
Shang Chenyi felt that the two of them were really childish. If he could walk on his own, he would definitely stay away from them.
We always have a quarrel when we meet, which is sometimes frustrating.
So he smiled and asked, "Brother Huo, where is Brother Jian? Isn't he coming out for dinner?"
"I'll bring it in to him later." Huo said.
When speaking to Shang Chenyi, his tone softened a lot.
Shang Chenyi nodded in understanding, and then said, "Do you mind if we have a meal together? We can provide you with food at noon."
Huo nodded and said, "Sure, as long as you can eat it. But first, I want to make it clear that if the food doesn't suit your taste, you don't have to eat it, but please don't criticize me."
These are all the hard work of others. You can give suggestions, but you can't gossip about them, otherwise no one will be happy.
Ye Buli is a very wealthy man. He used to eat delicacies from mountains and seas. Even now, someone cooks meals specially for him. Country food may not suit his taste, and the appearance alone may make him frown.
Shang Chenyi assured him, "Don't worry, we're not that particular, right, Ali?"
Shang Chenyi looked at him and pulled his sleeve, motioning him to speak.
Ye Buli gave a faint "hmm" as a response.
After saying that, Huo Yu didn't bother with them anymore and went to look for Aunt Zhou and the others.
Hearing that Ye Buli was also coming to eat, Aunt Zhou asked, "Do you want to make it separately for them?"
Those two people look quite expensive. Can they get used to eating the food they eat?
Today I cooked porridge, some cold wild vegetables, fried some dragon meat, and made multi-grain buns with shepherd's purse filling.
Huo ordered two portions of each dish and wanted to take them back to eat with Ning Yan.
Hearing Aunt Zhou's words, he said, "No need. If they are used to the food, then they can eat it. If they are not used to it, then don't worry about them. There will be many rough days in the future. How can we live such a refined life every day? The sooner they get used to it, the better."
Aunt Zhou thought what he said made sense. No one knew when this famine would end, and no one knew what would happen in the future. It would be a problem whether they could have food to eat at that time. What's more, they still had food to eat now.
General Xu gave one portion of each to Ye Buli and Shang Chenyi, and he also took one for himself.
Shang Chenyi and Ye Buli casually found a place to eat. Because of Ye Buli's cold face, no one was willing to get close to them.
Shang Chenyi didn't eat the meat and gave it all to Ye Buli. He only asked for steamed buns, porridge and cold dishes.
The multi-grain buns do not look very good, they are brown in color, the porridge is also cooked with multi-grains mixed with rice, and the cold dishes are green but look quite fresh.
General Xu next to him was already taking the bun and starting to eat it in big mouthfuls. Looking at the way he was eating, one could tell that the meal must be from the front line.
Shang Chenyi picked up the bun and took a bite. Suddenly, his eyes lit up and he said, "Ali, this bun is really good. Try it."
It contains diced dragon meat and freshly picked shepherd's purse, so it tastes fresh.
As he said this, he raised the bun to his mouth.
Ye Buli looked at the bun in front of him that was missing a bite, lowered his head and took a bite without hesitation, then said: "Well, it's okay."
Although it doesn’t look very good, the taste is indeed just to your liking.
If Ye Buli can say "okay", then the taste must be really okay.
Then Shang Chenyi said while eating: "I think after I get better, it's not a problem for us to eat with Brother Jian and the others, what do you think?"
"Just listen to Ayi." Ye Buli said in a gentle voice.
In the evening, the sound of a flare suddenly sounded from a mountain not far away.
When Huo Yu heard the noise, he ran out of the house and asked General Xu, "What's going on? Are Yin Youlin's men here?"
Xu Canjun said: "It shouldn't be. This is not our signal flare. I'll go check it out first."
After saying that, he left quickly.
Not long after, a man was brought back. He was seriously injured and was almost dying.
Ye Buli had already heard the noise and came over. Seeing the man's appearance, he asked, "What's going on?"
"My lord, this man groped his way to the outskirts of the mountain. We had already captured him, but I was negligent and failed to search for the flare on him in time, which allowed him to take advantage of the opportunity. It was my fault. Please punish me, my lord." The guard said, kneeling on one knee.
Ye Buli said coldly: "Get rid of him. As for you, I will find a chance to punish you later."
Now is the time to use people, so punishment will be left for later.
"Yes, thank you, master." The guard responded quickly.
Then he took the person away.
Ye Buli asked Huo Yu: "What do you think?"
Huo Yu said, "I didn't expect Yin Youlin to be so quick. He found this place in such a short time."
He turned to Ning Yan and asked, "Wife, do you think we should leave or stay?"
Ning Qian said, "Can't you assassinate him?"
Wouldn't this save a lot of effort?
Ye Buli said: "Assassination is possible, but it is not a good method."
Ning Qian asked, "Why?"
Ye Buli said: "Because he is stupid."
Ning Yan: “….”
Sometimes stupidity can save lives.
Xu Canjun explained, "Brother, what the master means is that Yin Youlin has many guards around him, so it's not that easy to kill him. Moreover, he has recently mobilized a lot of officers and soldiers from the border to besiege this mountain.
Also, there are more than one prince in the royal family. If you kill him directly, someone else will definitely take over the throne, and then the crime of killing the emperor may be pinned on you.
The mountain environment is unpredictable, and the temperature remains high. We will have to leave sooner or later. Killing him now is not a wise move. If the crime is pinned on you, it will be a heinous crime punishable by the death of all nine generations of your clan. If it is made public, it will cause us a lot of trouble on the road."
He paused, glanced at Ye Buli, and then whispered, "Second Palace is a bit stupid, but the less intelligent people are, the easier they are to deal with. It won't be too late to deal with him when we find the right opportunity later."
Huo Yu said, "Isn't Ye Buli also related to Yin Youlin? Why don't you become the emperor? That way, we'll all have someone to protect us!"
Ye Buli snorted and said, "Then why don't you go and become one? I can ask General Xu to help you."
Now there is famine everywhere and people are living in misery. If he becomes the emperor, can he still create food and water?
He has nothing, so why would he become the emperor?
Oh, now I can’t even get a whiff of the northwest wind, Ye Buli thought expressionlessly, because it’s so hot now that there is no wind at all.
Besides, it is impossible for him to become the emperor. If he becomes the emperor, where will Ayi be placed?
Huo Yu said, "I don't want to be this bullshit emperor. It's so hard, who would want to do it?"
I also have to face the complaints of those ministers every day, and have to read endless memorials and deal with endless things. It gives me a headache just thinking about it.
Ye Buli looked at him coldly when he heard this and said, "You also know how hard it is, so why are you still criticizing me?"
Seeing that the conversation was getting more and more off-topic, Shang Chenyi reminded them, "Now is not the time to discuss this. Should we stay or leave?"
Ning Jian said, "Let's go."
The most feared thing in the mountains is fire attack. Once Yin Youlin sets fire to the mountain without caring about the lives of birds, beasts and trees in the forest, the fire will spread quickly in the current weather, and it will be dangerous for them to stay in the mountains.
Huo Yu said, "Let's go, we're fine. What about you?"
He looked at Ye Buli and asked.
Ye Buli said: "We have no problem either."
"In that case, let's leave the day after tomorrow," Huo said.
No one had an opinion.
Ning Jian said: "But before we leave, we have to give them some big gifts."
Xu Canjun asked, "What kind of gift?"
Ning Yan said mysteriously, "You'll know tomorrow."
After the discussion, everyone went back.
Ye Buli said to Xu Canjun: "Inform the people in the Dark Night Pavilion to disband where they are. They can decide where to go. Give them their indentures and give each of them some silver."
"Yes." said General Xu.
Then he turned around and went to do his work.
At night, lying on the floor, Huo Yun asked, "Dad, are we leaving again?"
"Yeah? You don't want to leave?" Ning Yan asked.
Huo Yun shook his head and said, "Wherever Dad and Daddy are, my brother and I will be there. If any bad guys come, I will protect Daddy."
"Okay, you are really a good son of daddy." Ning Yan said.
"Dad, I will protect you too." Ning Jing also said.
Ning Yan patted his head and said, "Dad knows. You two are good sons. Go to sleep. I'll watch over you."
After hearing this, the two kids closed their eyes and fell asleep obediently.
While the fat boy was asleep, Zhou pulled down his pants and took a look. There were several obvious bruises on his buttocks. He had been pecked by woodpeckers many times today, and there were seven or eight bruises on his body.
She took out the medicine for external injuries that she had asked Ning Qian for, and while applying it to the little fat boy, she said with heartache, "You've suffered so much."
Although Zhou Youfeng felt distressed, he still comforted her, "It's good to suffer a little when you are young, so that you won't be bullied when you grow up. Huo Yun and Ning Jing trained so hard when they were young.
He gets up at dawn every day to practice martial arts, and never complains of being tired during training. Our son always does a pass with a casual effort, and he's much more comfortable than them.
Zhou thought about it and realized that this made sense, so she didn't talk about it anymore. They would leave again the day after tomorrow, and they didn't know where they would go next. There would be many hardships on the road, and they had to endure them.
The next day, in an open space far away from the residential area.
Each of Xu Canjun and his men had two nasal plugs on their noses, and then they picked up manure from a newly dug pool, soaked it with water, and then fermented it in the sun.
Xu Canjun said with disgust: "Brother, what on earth are you doing? This smell is really disgusting."
The stench is so terrible, it's disgusting. It's so disgusting.
Ning Yan was holding a mint-flavored sachet in his hand. He was covering his nose with his purse. When he heard what General Xu said, he said in a muffled voice, "Stop talking. Finish this quickly. We'll be leaving soon."
If possible, he would like to let Yin Youlin run wildly, but let's talk about this later. There will definitely be another chance.
After hearing this, Xu Canjun and the others sped up their work. They wanted to finish the work sooner so that they could get away sooner.
In the house on the second floor, Shang Chenyi and Ye Buli discussed packing their luggage.
Shang Chenyi looked at the luggage to be packed and asked worriedly, "How are we going to carry so many things?"
Ye Buli said, "Just bring the necessary clothes, and bring money for the rest. If you run out of food, just ask Huo and the others to buy it."
Ye Buli knew that Huo and the others had taken out food two days ago. Since Huo could get the food, they were not afraid of starving.
Shang Chenyi nodded after hearing this, and then said, "Don't we still have a lot of food here? Let's take all of this with us?"
They have stored half a month's worth of food here, almost 1000 kilograms. It's not a large amount, but it's not a small amount either. It definitely can't be left here. If they carry it all, the horses will be tired.
Ye Buli said: "Take them all."
There are so many of them, they will be almost exhausted in a few days.
Seeing that Ye Buli had made up his mind, Shang Chenyi stopped talking and just helped him pack his luggage.
Suifeng came over and when he heard that Huo and the others were leaving, he naturally wanted to go with them.
"Boss Huo, can I go with you? I will try my best not to cause you any trouble." Suifeng asked.
At this critical juncture, Ye Buli disbanded the Dark Night Pavilion, and he didn't know who to follow. Now that Huo? was here, he naturally chose to follow Huo?.
Huo Yu had no objection to this. He suggested, "Take all the money with you. You'll need it when the time comes."
Suifeng said: "Okay, I understand."
His total assets amount to several thousand taels of silver, and he will take them all with him when the time comes.
After everything was packed up, everyone prepared to leave.
The best route at present is to go out of the mountain and go to Xiyuan City. If you cannot stay in Xiyuan, then go to Moyang City. These two cities are the westernmost cities of Donglin Kingdom.
We will see where to stay when the time comes.
Ye Buli has more than 100 horses here, plus their ten cows, which is almost enough for them to ride.
After the group packed up, they left.
