Chapter 924: Mysterious Visitor
"In the Warring States Period, the law of the jungle was the strong, and he knew that he was harsh, but he would do it, this was the way to survive. Wufeng said to Yue'er.
"The country is here, the people are safe, the country is broken, and the people are dead, so no matter at any time, preserving the country is the first priority, if there is no country, where can there be a home?" Wufeng followed.
Yue'er thought about it, it is indeed very reasonable, there have been many stories of the destruction of many countries in the history books, once a country is destroyed, the civilians of the whole country will be reduced to slaves, working day and night, but without any compensation, slaves are no different from livestock in the eyes of slave owners.
There are even some tyrannical kings, after the destruction of the country, they will massacre, history does not know how many ethnic groups died tragically in such a massacre, and even some ethnic groups were beheaded and disappeared in the long river of history.
Can you imagine the importance of the existence of a country to the people?
In order to save the country, it seems that it has become a matter of course for the people to suffer a little.
It's just that Yue'er always thinks of the old grandmother hiding in the mountains, but there is still a little desolation in her heart.
If she has been well, if she is sick or old and cannot walk, then who will take care of her?
During the New Year's holidays, the family gathers together to welcome the New Year, and she hides alone in the mountains, without a trace of fireworks, without a hot meal, looking at the snow outside the window, celebrating the New Year alone, how desolate should it be?
When Yue'er thought of this, she felt more and more unbearable.
"When will we be able to make the Fufeng Kingdom stronger, and when will our people really live a good life?" Yue'er said with a lot of melancholy in her heart.
When Wufeng heard Yue'er's words, he couldn't help but be slightly stunned, it is rare for a ten-year-old child to worry about the country and the people like this.
In the following days, Yue'er would go to her grandmother's house every day to fetch water for her and help her sweep the yard.
And the old grandmother gradually fell in love with this cute "little girl".
"Baby, I don't have any grandchildren, why don't you just be my granddaughter? The old grandmother stroked Yue'er's face with her thin palm and said with pity.
Yue'er was slightly stunned, she was obviously a boy, how did she become a granddaughter?
However, he did not blame the old grandmother for being clumsy, in fact, when many people met him for the first time, they were easy to misunderstand him, thinking that he was a beautiful and lovely little girl, but in fact, he was an out-and-out boy.
"Grandma, I'm a boy. Yue'er corrected embarrassedly.
"Boy?" the old grandmother was slightly stunned, staring at Yue'er carefully and asked.
However, I don't know if I don't look at it, but if I look closely, Yue'er's face is becoming more and more delicate, with clear and beautiful big eyes, exquisite facial features carved in pink and jade, and a delicate melon seed face, which makes him look like a beautiful embryo alive.
"Well, I'm a boy. Yue'er nodded seriously and said.
"I really didn't expect that such a beautiful baby would be a male baby, and I will be blessed with a lot in the future. The old woman said with a smile.
"Why did the old lady say that?" asked Yue'er suspiciously.
"Haven't you heard? Boys and girls are blessed, and the more boys look like girls, the greater the blessings. The old woman said with a smile.
"Hehe, is it? It's the first time I've heard of it, but there are also seniors in the palace who have said that I have the appearance of a dragon and a phoenix, and I will be rich and noble in the future, but I just listened to it, and I didn't go to my heart. Yue'er said with a smile.
"The palace, little baby, have you ever been to the palace?" the old woman asked strangely, slightly stunned.
As soon as Yue'er saw that she had leaked her mouth, she quickly stopped her mouth and shook her head vigorously.
"Grandma, it's not too early, I'll go first, and I'll come back tomorrow. In order not to say anything again, Yue'er hurriedly said goodbye to the old grandmother and left the old grandmother's house.
Yue'er walked on the way back to the villa, the more she thought about it, the more funny she felt, is it a blessing to look like a girl?
I remember that when he was in the palace, he was often ridiculed by Zhao Ruyi as a sissy.
Yue'er returned to the villa, and suddenly saw that the gate of the villa was closed, and the open space outside seemed to have been carefully cleaned, and the thick fallen leaves had been carefully cleaned up, and everything seemed a little unusual.
Yue'er walked to the door and knocked hard, and soon after, the housekeeper came to open the door, and the door only opened a small crack, and after seeing that it was Yue'er, he opened the door and called Yue'er in.
"Steward Feng, why did you suddenly close the door today? The courtyard outside has also been cleaned, is there any important guest here?" Yue'er looked at Steward Feng and asked strangely.
Steward Feng was slightly stunned, he didn't expect the little master to be so smart, he actually guessed that there was a distinguished guest in the village, but Lord Feng had already specially explained before, no matter who it was, he couldn't leak the rumors, he only said that this guest was very important, and no one was allowed to say it if he asked.
"Little master, Lord Feng has explained, don't ask more about today's affairs, just go back to the room by yourself. After Steward Feng finished speaking, he went to the back hall.
Yue'er wondered, what kind of guest was so important?
It seems that even Steward Feng thinks it is very important.
Yue'er was curious, so she sneaked to the back hall, hid behind the hall, and peeked inside.
I saw that above the lobby, there were two people sitting upright.
One is a white-robed man without wind, the other is a strange old man, the old man is about sixty or seventy years old, and his beard is also white, and he looks much older than Wufeng, and under the hall, there is a young man, who is about thirteen or fourteen years old, and he is extremely handsome, but the clothes on his body are tattered, his hair is dirty, and he looks a little sloppy.
Feng Bo asked the old man to sit in the hall, and specially served good tea, and between his words, he was extremely respectful, just like he treated the monarch.
And the old man was also quite polite to Wufeng, with a little smile in his words.
The young man sitting at the bottom of the hall sat upright, but he didn't say a word, his eyes stared slightly ahead, with a bit of cold arrogance in his eyes, like a lonely wolf, full of wildness, but unwilling to give in.
Yue'er secretly looked at the two guests, and felt so strange in her heart.
Who are they?
Why did you get such a high-standard reception from Fengbo?
You must know that Feng Bo rarely interacts with guests on weekdays, and many officials who wanted to make friends with Feng Bo in the past were all rejected by Feng Bo, and this pair of guests, why didn't Feng Bo refuse it?
Yue'er was thinking about it, but she suddenly found something in her eyes, it turned out that in the old man's shabby robe, half of the earthy yellow lining was suddenly revealed, and the pattern on the lining was not the pattern of Fufeng Kingdom, but the pattern of Chu State clothing.
Look at the old man's deerskin boots, which are thick-soled and long, and they also have the tattoos of the Chu Kingdom.
Yue'er couldn't help but be stunned, and her eyes instantly widened, "It turns out that they are from the Chu State? Could it be that Fengbo has a personal relationship with the Chu people?"
