In the end, Qi Yunxiao agreed to take over Hidden Dragon Guard.
Long San was not convinced and bumped his shoulder against the wall. He actually picked it back up and then prepared to rub himself up again.
Qi Yunxiao sneered coldly: "I can take off your arm, but you think I'm not capable of killing you?"
Long San paused.
Compared to removing the arm, killing someone is of course more convenient and neat.
Zhao Mingzhu laughed dryly and grabbed Long San, handing out an envelope: "This is the token and address my father left for you. You can read it after I leave."
After saying that, Zhao Mingzhu ran away.
Long San also ran away, but Zhao Mingzhu scolded him: "You will follow my cousin from now on, don't follow me."
Long San refused: "You don't know how to box or kick, how can you have no one to protect you?"
Qi Yunxiao pouted: "I don't want this person, just follow her."
Long San was happy, Zhao Mingzhu looked complicated, and the two finally left.
After the two left, Qi Yunxiao opened the envelope. When he saw the words inside clearly, he jumped up in surprise: "I'm in trouble!"
The letter was short and somewhat sloppy, obviously written in a hurry.
"Grand nephew, the Hidden Dragon Guard is entrusted to you. Please try your best to save the lives of your two cousins."
"Of course, if they are gone by the time you see this letter, or if you are unable to do so, I don't blame you."
"In addition, the incident happened suddenly, and I can't give you any financial support. I can only ask you to overcome the difficulties and prevent these Hidden Dragon Guards from starving to death."
"Of course, if they starve to death, it's their fate, and I won't blame you."
Qi Yunxiao's face turned livid!
A Thousand Hidden Dragon Guards!
A thousand mouths!
Want to support yourself?!
Should I build a copycat village, get these Hidden Dragon Guards to rob or something, and become a mountain king?
Prince?
The prince has no money, yet he still wears short shirts and cloth shoes at home every day!
The Eighth Prince?
Don't even expect it.
He is only eight years old, how much money can he have in his hand?
I was tricked by the evil uncle of the emperor!
Feeling angry, Qi Yunxiao didn't even ride with anyone from Buzhuang, but rode a black horse and galloped out of the city.
At the gate of Buzhuang, Mrs. Qingpinghou had just gone to Guiyun Tower to pay the money and redeem Qi Yunheng back. She didn't care about anything else and went to Buzhuang to guard Qi Yunxiao herself.
No matter what today, Qi Yunxiao must give her the household expenses for the past six months.
Otherwise, we won’t be able to cook at home next month!
Who knows that the shopkeeper of Buzhuang said that Qi Yunxiao is not here and he doesn’t know where he is.
I still don’t believe it today!
After all, I am also your stepmother in name only. I am waiting for you. How can you still avoid me for the rest of your life?
If you never show up, the spittle of the capital will drown you, the newly promoted Crown Prince of the Qingping Marquis Mansion.
While I was feeling angry in my heart, I accidentally saw a black horse passing by the gate of Buzhuang and heading straight out of the city.
The one on the black horse wearing a curtain but accidentally showing his forehead, who is it if it’s not Qi Yunxiao?
"Qi Yunxiao!" Mrs. Qingpinghou screamed through the clouds and split the silk.
However, Qi Yunxiao didn't seem to hear anything, so he rode out of the city gate and headed straight out.
It's over, now he really ran away!
He returns to the capital several times throughout the year. If he leaves the capital this time, he doesn’t know when he will come back!
What to do with household expenses?
Mrs. Qingpinghou was about to cry but couldn't help but look at the shopkeeper of Buzhuang: "You see, your boss has left the capital. Why don't you hand over your account to me first?"
The shopkeeper of Buzhuang smiled and said: "Madam, my boss has not said that he is leaving the capital. He may come back in three to five days. Why don't you wait any longer?"
Anyway, I just don’t talk about giving money and accounts.
Mrs. Qingpinghou was so angry that her eyes turned black.
She knew that it must be wrong to let Qi Yunxiao take care of his mother's dowry!
However, the late emperor was still there at that time, and Qi Yunxiao was the empress's nephew, so she did not dare to bully him too much.
The Empress said she would hand over the dowry to Qi Yunxiao for management, so she had no choice but to agree.
This happened to stop Qi Yunxiao's idea of inheriting the throne of the Qingping Hou Mansion.
After all, no prince in this dynasty is engaged in business.
This is so despicable that people with status would disdain it.
Who would have thought that after so many times, the Qingping Hou Mansion would live on the money earned from the dowry in Qi Yunxiao's hands?!
This matter is easy to talk about or not, and everyone deliberately avoids mentioning it.
But now it’s impossible to avoid it: the family is going to be in trouble, what should I do if I don’t mention it?
But who would have thought that Qi Yunxiao would win the favor of the new emperor and be suddenly named the crown prince!
Now he is even more cocky, and the Qingping Marquis Mansion can no longer restrain him!
What can we do?
Qi Yunxiao put the black horse into the mountain after leaving the city, and walked towards the depths of the dense forest like a puff of smoke.
According to the map in the letter, go to the location of Hidden Dragon Guard...
Shen Qingyu waited patiently for Xiao Yunqi's return, but she waited and waited. Before he came back, she waited for the first wave of people fleeing the desert!
The entire city has experienced no harvest this year, and its grain output has also dropped by 80%.
There are very few villages like Shenjia Village that have found new water sources. Everyone can only carry water to irrigate the fields. Not only is everyone exhausted, but they can't save much food.
Seeing that the food at home was about to run out, everyone had no choice but to go out and escape with walking sticks.
For a time, there were people selling children and slaves on the roadside in Hengshui Town. If you took a few steps, there would be one or two.
There are straw tags everywhere.
Shen Qingyu really doesn't dare to run around these days. Every time she goes out, she takes Cheng Ping with her, just for fear that there will be some trouble and her space will be exposed.
The coarse cloth clothes that I hadn’t worn for a while were all turned out, and the simple dress of Jingchai’s cloth skirt made me feel like I was back to the previous years.
But even so, her pink face and plump cheeks make it easy to see that she is not short of food.
So the donkey cart was walking on the road. Within a few steps, someone stopped the cart and asked, "Do you want to buy someone?"
She still had some resistance to slavery in her heart, but she couldn't say more. She asked too many questions, so she had to put on her hat.
Dim sum shops are afraid to open their doors these days for fear of looting by victims of the disaster, so they only accept reservations from wealthy families.
Even the small shop on the pier has been closed recently.
It doesn't matter whether you make money or not, life is important.
The braised pork is not sold in the dock shops, but only sent to Guiyun Tower and Qi Han in Fucheng.
The bean sprouts are still sprouting as usual.
But Qi Han sent people to pull bean sprouts and braised pork. They had to be strong and fierce-looking, so that they could suppress the eagerly watching refugees on the roadside.
Relatively speaking, life in Shenjia Village is much easier: although every household eats cereal porridge, they will never die of hunger.
"Thanks to Qingyu!"
"That's right! If she hadn't asked us to build a house before and we made some money, where would we have gotten the grains to make porridge now?"
"Alas! If we hadn't received dozens of kilograms of grain from their home, our family would have to use walking sticks to escape the famine!"
Even so, there are still people in the village crying: "Mom, don't sell me... I only eat one meal a day!"
