Chapter Fifty-Nine: A Wave of Unsettled Waves Rises Again
They were tired all night, and the next day they went to survey the site during the day, and when they returned to the castle they were tired. After returning to the castle www.biquge.info the three of them returned to their respective guest rooms and rested under the service of their respective maids.
That night, the ruffian summoned the chiefs of the villages who were willing to support him to a meeting in a tavern in the downtown area. The hostess of this tavern has some connections with the ruffian, and the proprietress of this tavern is not married, but she has had a leg with many men. Before the attack, the ruffian had been coveting the proprietress for her plump figure, but the proprietress thought he was a scoundrel and never looked at him squarely.
After the ruffian led the villagers to slaughter the Yan family castle, some misbehaving people willingly became his subordinates, so that the ruffian man had his own people. Now that the attack has just ended, less than a day later, the hearts of the people have not yet calmed down. At such a time, it is not the uncle who has money, but the uncle who has people. At the moment when the ruffian man returned to the downtown area with dozens of people, everyone's eyes changed when they looked at him.
The proprietress who had always looked down on the ruffian took the initiative to give him a hug, and let the ruffian and his men "stay temporarily" in his tavern - to put it bluntly, it was just a body exchange for a bodyguard. How could the ruffian let go of this meat on the side of his mouth? So he took this tavern as his stronghold and accepted the proprietress as his concubine.
The scale of this tavern is not large, and the lobby can seat dozens of people when it is full. Seventy or eighty representatives from the outlying villages came, so that the already small lobby would become very crowded. The ruffian was also clever, and he had his men stop the delegates outside, and let them divide them into ten groups according to the area where the village was located, and go in groups for a meeting.
The ruffian pulled a chair and lay on it, holding the proprietress in his arms, a pair of calloused hands roamed freely in the proprietress's clothes, and there was a row of big men standing behind him.
The representatives of the villagers had never seen this situation, and they wanted to express their opinions as soon as they entered the house, and as soon as they entered the door, they were dumbfounded, and sat honestly in their places according to the orders of the ruffian's men. When the ruffian saw that a group of people had arrived, he asked them how many men they had, and the deputies answered truthfully. The ruffian asked the proprietress to help him calculate the total number of people, and the proprietress secretly scolded the ruffian in her heart that it was useless, and he couldn't even count simple additions, but he still helped the ruffian calculate the total number of people.
There are more than 1,000 of them......
The ruffian rolled his eyes, and his mind moved, and he had a plan in his heart. Don't look at this man as lustful, illiterate and unable to do arithmetic, but his brain is still very good.
There are more than 1,000 people in a group, how many people are in a group of ten?
The ruffian couldn't count, but he knew that there must be a lot of them. If all these people were at his disposal, then he could completely attack all the big clan castles except for the Yu family's mansion, and then threaten the outer villages to obey his arrangement. At that time, even if he can't replace Nami Layman, he will be able to rely on these people to fight against Nami Layman.
This ruffian has never seen Ira's witchcraft, so he has such a naΓ―ve idea. With the strength of Nanyi Jushi and Yanhe, when the time comes, as long as they can easily kill the ruffian and his cronies, the rest of them will obediently surrender.
However, now Nami and Yanhe are not in the Twenty-Nine Village, even if they are in the Twenty-Nine Village, this riot will make Nami Jushi feel cold. At that time, she will most likely leave the Twenty-Nine Village with the Yu family and those who are willing to go with her, and start a new life far away from the Twenty-Nine Village. As for Yan He, she will definitely leave with Nami Jushi. But before that, she would definitely destroy the twenty-nine villages at all costs.
At the same time, Yu Mingli was sitting at the table with a tired face, looking at the stationery on the table in a daze.
She didn't know how to report to Nami and her father what happened in Village 29, whether it was the attack on the evil witch and bandits in Village 29, whether she was forced to agree to Yishan and Urris's conditions, or whether the villagers asked Nami to bring back the troops, it was difficult for her to talk about it.
What to do...... What am I going to do......
Yu Mingli covered his cheeks, and his body trembled slightly. Teardrops fell down her chin and made a soft "pop" on the cortical herdium.
She was the only one in the room, but she still didn't dare to cry. Because the night was so quiet, she was afraid that the cry would be heard by the patrolling soldiers through the window. This was the second time that Yu Mingli felt his incompetence and weakness, the first time was last night, in front of Yishan and Yulis.
She lay on the table, buried her face between her arms, and sobbed quietly. After some time, she fell asleep from exhaustion, and turned her tear-stained face to the windowsill. Her brows were furrowed, her fists clenched, her silver teeth clenched, as if she was fighting something in her dreams.
At dawn, Yu Mingli was woken up by a knock on the door. She rubbed her sleepy eyes and yawned. The movement of her facial skin made her feel the tears on her face clearly, and she realized that she had fallen asleep crying and crying last night.
Why am I so useless......
Yu Mingli's eyes darkened, his nose was sour, and tears began to roll in his red eyes again.
No, no, no! Now is not the time to cry!
Yu Mingli sniffed hard, wiped the tears from his eyes with his fingers, and took out a handkerchief to wipe his face carefully. At this time, the knock on the door sounded again, and Yu Mingli sorted out his emotions and asked loudly.
"What's the matter?"
"Your Excellency the Sheriff, Maier? Lord Byrons, Lord Xiaohu Yishan, and Her Royal Highness Euris have asked to see you, saying that they have come to bid you farewell. β
"What!? They're leaving?! β
Yu Mingli stood up suddenly, walked quickly to the door, opened the door, and asked the soldier who had come to report the news in as calm a tone as possible.
"They didn't say why they were leaving?"
"Lord Xiaohu Yishan and Her Royal Highness Ulis didn't say anything, but Maier? Master Byron said that he had come to the appointment, and now that the appointment had been made, it was time for him to go. β
Yu Mingli didn't want them to leave Twenty-Nine Village. Not for anything else, the defense force in the twenty-nine village is very weak now, although Yishan and Yulis's people are not under her control, and they may not help her if there is another war, but as long as they stay in the castle, Yu Mingli can feel much more at ease.
"Take me to them!"
Yu Mingli directly put the letter to Nami Monk behind him, and followed the soldiers to the castle's living room. When she arrived, Maier, Yishan, and Ulis were sitting in the guest seats "chatting".
"The house that 'I' bought for Mel should have been renovated, and Maier can move his house directly when the time comes, and of course, 'I' will live there too."
"That...... Euris ......"
"Hmph, you don't know much about Mel either. Before you met Myer, he lived with me for a while in the Lord's Mansion. Maier liked to live freely, so he rented a house outside the Lord's Mansion. Maier can't even look down on 'my' city lord's mansion, how can he look down on the house you bought? β
"Uh...... I said Yishan......"
"Tut-tut, you're the one who doesn't know Myer, right? Maier doesn't live with you, obviously because he is afraid of affecting his reputation, and if there is any scandal in the market, he will definitely feel a headache. β
"Ah...... Ullis, actually, ......"
"Huh? Why should he have a headache! I should be the one who has a headache! β
"Yishan...... Isn't that a bit ...... to say?"
"Since you have a headache, leave Mel's business alone. I'm not afraid of any scandals, but I want the news of my love affair with Mel to spread all over the world. β
"Euris ...... This one is a bit ......."
"All, all, all world?! No...... No, no, no, no, no shame! β
"A conservative and old-fashioned woman like you will only use the word 'shameless' to describe an enthusiastic and unrestrained woman like me, and your language is really lacking."
"You-"
Seeing that the mouth of the two was about to heat up, Yu Mingli quickly coughed twice vigorously, interrupting their conversation.
"Three...... The three benefactors are here. β
Yu Mingli didn't want to use the word "benefactor", after all, Yishan and Euris sent troops after getting the price, and the two sides were in a trading relationship, not a helping relationship. But now she wants to leave the three of them behind, so she can only pick up good ones.
"Tsk, the unclean have come, are they here to dedicate themselves?"
Euris glanced at Yu Mingli with disgust, Yishan didn't speak, but the gaze that looked at Yu Mingli was not friendly. Maier looked helplessly at the two beside him, and then looked at Yu Mingli with an apologetic look. Yu Mingli then remembered that she had said something like dedication in a hurry last night, and two red clouds immediately rose on her face.
"That...... That one...... It's a bit abrupt, but I'm a reluctant request......
"It's for us to stay, right?"
Euris impatiently put her left leg on the knee of her right leg and touched her rabbit ear.
"You're really bold, aren't you afraid that we will take Nami Castle on a whim?"
Yu Mingli knew that Euris was just talking. Yishan and Euris are both nobles, and nobles attach great importance to reputation. Taking advantage of someone else's castle as a third party without declaring war is very immoral even in the eyes of outlaws, and it will greatly damage the reputation of the two, so it is impossible for them to do such a thing.
So she didn't care, and still said with a smile.
"The three of them came only the day before yesterday, and the Yu family hasn't entertained you well......"
"Ira's food isn't to my liking." Euris unceremoniously interrupted Yu Mingli's words, "I don't like you either. Besides, I'm here with Mary, so I'll be spared from entertaining or something. If you want to entertain Mel, then whatever you want, and this guy and I will leave now. β
What Yu Mingli really wanted was the soldiers of the two, not Mel. Euris was right on this, so she dared to say such a thing. Yishan didn't say anything, and acquiesced to Yulis's statement.
Just when Yu Mingli was overwhelmed by Ulis's words, the situation outside Nami Castle had already changed.
After last night's meeting, the ruffian divided his cronies into ten groups, and asked them to lead the villagers, who were divided into ten groups according to their region, to control the villages in their area one by one. The ruffians sat in the taverns in the downtown area, waiting for the news of their victory.
In fact, the ruffians originally wanted to attack the Great Clan Castle first, but the villager representatives repeatedly said that they wanted to get their things back first and then attack the Great Clan Castle. Thinking that he might get more men after taking control of the village, the ruffian changed his original plan and let them occupy the villages before attacking the castle.
Due to the constant turmoil in the surrounding villages, and the fact that Nami Castle had not sent anyone to inform them that the attack was over, the great clans had been stationed in their castles, and there was not even a single person who dared to come out to inquire about the news. They didn't know that two big clan castles had already been breached, and they naively thought that the walls of more than four meters high would protect their safety.
The only exception is the Yu family mansion. The Yu Mansion had been in contact with Nami Castle, so they knew the attack was over. When there was a riot in the surrounding villages, the Yu family mansion sent the few cavalrymen out to check on the situation. After discovering that a group of armed villagers were trying to occupy the surrounding villages, they immediately sent the news to Nami Castle.
When the messenger arrives at Nami Castle, Euris is asking Yumei for Mai's payment. Yu Mingli didn't want to pay the bill, but she knew that as long as she nodded her head, Maier and the others would definitely leave the twenty-nine villages. As for Yishan and Yulis, the two of them held the contract signed by Yu Mingli on behalf of the twenty-nine villages, and they were not afraid that she would repay the debt.
