Thinking of the other party's purpose, Li Yifu couldn't help but gasp, since he had taken refuge in the East Palace, he had also experienced a lot of things.

Originally, he thought that after Li Chengqian eliminated two opposition forces in a row this summer, he received the full support of Li Shimin and ordered him to be imprisoned in the country. There should be no one in the government and the opposition who dares to go against Li Chengqian, but I didn't expect that people have already opened a big net and waited for them to jump inside.

There was silence in the room for a while, and Pei Xingjian personally brought in some food for Li Chengqian, all of which were dry food that he brought, and it was very simple to make a fire and heat it up.

"Is everyone else's food ready?" Li Chengqian asked.

"It's all there, and everyone is eating outside?" Pei Xingjian said.

"Is Wang Fangyi's team gone?" Li Chengqian asked.

"It's already gone, and they're all going to eat it right away with dry food." Pei Xingjian relieved Li Chengqian.

"It's been a few days of marching, and they should be allowed to eat a hot meal before they go." Li Chengqian said and smiled to himself.

"The soldiers have received great favors from His Royal Highness the Prince, so it is natural that they should fight for their lives to run errands for His Royal Highness the Prince." Li Yifu admonished.

Li Chengqian didn't speak, but Ming Liu Kui stretched out his hand.

Liu Kui hurriedly bent down to help Li Chengqian.

"The most important thing in life is to eat and sleep, let you see the importance of a meal!" Li Chengqian said and walked out.

"Thank you for the teachings of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!" The two bowed.

Li Chengqian waved his hand tiredly, and helped Liu Kui to walk out, Pei Xingjian and Li Yifu straightened up and followed behind.

Li Chengqian walked out of the house and saw Xue Rengui personally serving food to the people, with a satisfied smile on his face.

The soldiers who had already received the meal over there were squatting on the ground eating, and when they saw Li Chengqian coming out, they hurriedly put down their rice bowls and saluted him.

"See Childe."

Li Chengqian smiled and waved his hand when he saw it and said, "No courtesy!" ”

Seeing that everyone was still looking at him, he stepped forward to look at the rice in their bowls, and said with a smile: "It's been a hard day, keep eating!" ”

The cavalry saluted again before crouching down and continuing to eat.

Li Chengqian turned to look at the people on the other side, only to see that these people were all holding the food they had just received, looking at him in a daze, obviously frightened by the formation of everyone saluting him.

"My son-in-law came to see you." Li Yifu was gentle to everyone.

An old man reacted when he saw Li Chengqian walking in front of him, hurriedly put down the food and lay on the ground to kowtow to Li Chengqian, "Gongzi Xie will appreciate the rice." ”

Li Chengqian slowly stepped forward to help him up, touched his thin hands, looked at his frightened eyes, and said with a gentle smile: "The old man doesn't need to be polite, I brought my family here to find the Sanming Immortal Sect, but the letter didn't ask for the detailed address."

Seeing that it was getting dark, we should stay here first, since we are on the same road, we should help each other, and we will have a meal here tonight, and we will go together tomorrow morning. ”

The old man saw that Li Chengqian spoke kindly, and gave them food, and he also found this place and felt that he must have come to join the Sanming Immortal Sect, so he did not doubt him, so he talked to Li Chengqian.

After eating, Li Chengqian basically knew about their situation.

This old man's surname is Liu, and he is known as Old Man Liu.

The main altar of the Sanming Immortal Sect in Yichuan County is in a col less than ten miles to the west, and only one of these people, a young man named Gouwa, has been there a few days ago, because there is food there, so he went home to attract relatives and friends.

The dog baby admires the Sanming Immortal Sect very much, and worships the Flying Bee General Huang Feibee to the point of no return.

But in fact, he had only stayed in this Sanming Immortal Sect settlement for less than two days, and he had only eaten four full meals.

Li Chengqian ordered Pei Xingjian to arrange these people, and invited the old man Song to inquire about the situation here, and the old man Song said: I really know about this matter, because their village can still live, so I ignored this matter.

After a night of silence, Li Chengqian ordered Li Yifu and the people who had defected to the Sanming Immortal Sect to go together to investigate the situation of the Sanming Immortal Sect.

Because Wang Fangyi and Li Yifu were both sent out, Li Chengqian waited here for them to come back.

Seeing that Li Chengqian had no intention of leaving, Old Man Song and the villagers didn't know what their plans were, and they didn't dare to come forward to ask and only guessed in their hearts, they were not noble sons who passed by, but robbers who wanted to commit crimes here.

So he secretly sent a person to Yichuan County to find Song Dalang, the son of the old man Song, who was on an errand in the Yali of Yichuan County, and heard that there were bandits in the house, so he went to report to the master.

The collusion between the Sanming Immortal Sect and the local officials and scholars, this master knew about it, thinking that it was the children of the scholar clan who went to help, but he heard that the guards and servants all called the master's family 'Gongzi', and knew that the identity of the person who came was noble and did not dare to be specialized, so he went to report to the county commander Cui Qiang.

"Lord County, I heard from Song Dalang that a noble person went to see Huang Feibee." The master came to Cui Qiang to report.

"What nobleman?" Cui Qiang asked coldly.

The master looked at Cui Qiang's stiff expression, knowing that he was from the scholar clan and looked down on people like Huang Feibee the most, so he didn't dare to say anything else, so he hurriedly said: "The students don't know either, but I heard that there are two or three hundred guards alone, one person and two horses, and they arrived at dusk yesterday——"

When the master said this, he saw Cui Qiang's expression change greatly: "Who is in charge?"

"I heard that it's a noble boy in his twenties who has a foot injury—"

"Quickly call Song Dalang, the official will ask him personally."

Seeing Cui Qiang's shocked expression, the master hurriedly sent someone to call Song Dalang.

Cui Qiang was frightened, who came out with two or three hundred cavalry to escort him?

Thinking of this, Cui Qiang hurriedly said: "Quickly send someone to find out where Lord Shi went?"

In order to act, Dai Zhide was going from Luoyang to Yichuan to persuade the people to go home.

-----------------------

Li Yifu wiped the sweat on his forehead with his sleeve, and said in his heart: It can be regarded as here.

All the way out of Songjiazhuang is a desolate mountain road, which is very difficult to walk, and the group is tired enough to walk here.

It is the two small schools behind Li Yifu, because they have been training for many years and their bodies are stronger than others, and they are also a little out of breath when they come here.

turned back to Old Man Liu and said, "Don't mention our affairs when you go in later, my son-in-law wants to see the personality of this Flying Bee General, so he decided not to see him." ”

"Hey, hey! The villain understands, the villain understands. Old man Liu ate two "good meals" from Li Chengqian, and agreed to Li Yifu's request without hesitation.

Li Yifu nodded, just looking at the empty and unpopular small village in front of him, and couldn't help but look at the dog baby who led the way in confusion and said, "Why is there no one here?"

The dog baby smiled and said, "Mr. Li doesn't know, General Feibee is afraid that the government will find out, so he set up the camp in the valley behind the village." ”

Li Yifu nodded, and continued to walk inside, passing through the village, and sure enough, there was a path leading to the mountain.

It's just that at this time, at the intersection of the mountain, there were 100 old men, women and children in ragged clothes, sitting or lying there, and when they heard Li Yifu's footsteps, a few people turned their heads to look at them, and lowered their heads again, looking extremely numb.

Li Yifu's heart moved, and he whispered to Old Man Liu: "Old Liu, go and ask them why they don't go in, don't you want people inside?"

When Old Man Liu heard this, he beat a drum in his heart, hurriedly ran a few steps forward, and arched his hand at a white-haired old man and said with a smile: "Brother, why don't you go into the mountains to have a full meal and see General Flying Bee?"

The white-haired old man turned his head and looked at Old Man Liu blankly when he heard the sound, and he didn't react for a while.

Old man Liu had seen this kind of situation, and knew that they must be tired and hungry and desperate, so he was already very numb to the outside world, so he asked loudly again: "Brother, they have all come here, why don't you go in?"

The white-haired old man still didn't speak, and a young woman next to him cried sadly, "People don't want us. ”

"Why?"

Old man Liu's heart suddenly broke out when he heard this, and the smile on his face froze.

"We're useless—" The white-haired old man finally reacted, his voice full of grief and despair.

"Didn't you say that the Flying Bee General of the Sanming Immortal Sect relieved the poor? How...... Since you are not taken in here, why don't you go elsewhere and ask for a chance to live?"

"It's been two days since we've been here, and we've already eaten all the dry food we've brought...... so we can't get out-"

The white-haired old man said this, looked at a few hungry children with straight eyes, did not say anything and no tears flowed out, but looked up at the sky with his mouth half-open, and his throat moved and made a few syllables of unknown meaning.

Li Yifu thought of the mountain road when he remembered, and sighed secretly in his heart, knowing that if these people couldn't eat a hot meal, they would starve to death on the way back now.
