Chapter 574 : The poor can starve to death, the rich can starve to death
Suddenly, he seemed to remember something and sat up suddenly, his eyes shining.
However, he suddenly frowned, as if he had encountered some problem.
Cheyue's handsome face showed a worried look, and she touched her arms, but suddenly she heard a burst of ups and downs of discussion outside.
"God, this man died so tragically."
"Yes, I heard that he died of starvation. Hey, these are refugees from the Eastern Kingdom."[
"This is how the world is. Being poor can starve you to death, and being rich can starve you to death."
Cheyue was startled for a moment, and suddenly opened the curtains, only to see a group of people gathered on the roadside outside. She quickly asked the horse driver to stop and asked Bai Fei to go over and take a look.
Bai Fei obeyed the order and stepped forward to take a look, only to see a man about thirty years old leaning under a big tree. His face was blue and he was no longer breathing. However, it seemed that he had died of poisoning rather than starvation.
But he was just a civilian, so he didn't take it seriously and went back to report the truth to Che Yue. Che Yue frowned slightly and waited for a while before letting people continue on their way.
Half an hour later, it was already dusk, and there was a dim light on the horizon. Everyone could only stay overnight at an inn on the roadside.
This is the Liao Kingdom, and the border between the two countries is very close to the capital. It only takes a day. But it will take several days to travel back to the capital of the Liao Kingdom from here.
After a hasty dinner, Che Yue returned to the room, but Li Yi sent fine wine to Che Yue's room to show his goodwill and chatted with him.
"The Fifth Highness is so lucky. Before he returned to the Liao Kingdom, King Ling of the Silk Kingdom had asked an envoy to come to propose marriage. He wanted to give the princess to the Fifth Highness as the Crown Princess, so as to unite the two countries! You know, the previous Third Highness,
The four highnesses all proposed marriage to the Silk Kingdom and wanted to marry the eldest princess Cheng Qinxue as their concubine, but the eldest princess was unmoved!" Li Yi said with a smile, looking at the handsome Che Yue, it was like seeing him back then.
Like a soft concubine.
Cheyue was startled, Cheng Qinxue?
Cheng Qinxue = Cheng Xin?
A strange look flashed across his eyes, and he smiled, "That is really your Highness's blessing. When Your Highness returns to the Liao Kingdom, he will immediately pay a betrothal gift and marry the princess."
