Chapter 416: Confused
Don't let them get used to living in the barracks, just for Xiao Yongde's identity, Li Zhenshou actually let him sleep in the stable?
"Is the butler mistaken?"
Xiao Yongjue couldn't help asking, he was already angry because Li Zhenshou deliberately aroused their interest, and now he wants them to live in the stable with the horses.
The butler bowed his head and was humble.
"This, this Lord Li sympathizes with the people in the mansion, and those empty rooms are all for her to live in, this is really no room to make this decision, and she can only grieve the general and his brothers to live here."
The housekeeper is embarrassed, if Xiao Yongde is embarrassed here, it is useless for the housekeeper, he also obeys orders.
Xiao Yongjue clenched his fists, his forehead was bruised, and he wanted to rush forward, but was stopped by Xiao Yongde.
"The tired housekeeper said thank you to Master Li for us."
Xiao Yongde said politely, the housekeeper nodded, and glanced at Xiao Yongjue when he left, his eyes were full of contempt.
Before he had walked a few steps, he turned back and admonished.
"By the way, don't press the horse feed over there, those are for the horses, and you can't eat the BMW that crushes Lord Li, and there is a lot of horse grass here that is easy to fuel, so you can't make a fire at night."
The housekeeper advised, and Xiao Yongjue looked angry.
"Daddy... Checkmate! Li Zhenshou deceived people too much, how can you bear this breath! ”
Xiao Yongjue flicked his sleeves, and the hammer of anger hit the pillar, and the grass on the horse shed fell on their heads, and the smoke was miasma.
There is a smell of around, this place is worse than the barracks, and there is no quilt to cover, how to spend the night?
"If you can't bear it, you have to endure it, this is not the capital or the military camp, but the frontier, Li Zhenshou dares to be so arrogant, I'm afraid that we can't manage it, and we can't go back."
Xiao Yongde squinted, his eyes full of confusion.
His heart was shaken, was it right or wrong to be so righteous and awe-inspiring at the beginning?
Now that these people are in such a predicament, he, is he doing the right thing or is it wrong?
Xiao Yongjue was silent, because he also felt that all of them could not go back to this battle.
He knew that their military rations were supported by the taxes paid by the people, but he didn't expect that it would take their lives, and those above knew that this result still agreed.
"Let's stay here overnight today, thank you brothers."
Xiao Yongde looked at the soldiers who were sitting on the ground, huddled together and shaking to keep warm, how could they not be cold, they were already thinly dressed?
In the middle of the night, it would have been colder than it is now.
Xiao Yongde can't do anything, and now that he is leaving others, he is content to have a place to stay.
Li Zhenshou hated him, and if he really ate and drank well and served him, he felt that the other party had bad intentions.
"Daddy!"
Xiao Yongjue was dissatisfied, but when he looked up and saw Xiao Yongjue's haggard appearance, he swallowed everything he wanted to say in his throat.
"Rest."
Xiao Yongde sighed, patted Xiao Yongjue on the shoulder, and then walked beside the soldiers.
Xiao Yongjue, who was standing in place, could still hear the sound of the wind blowing, although he had thousands of emotions, he couldn't say half a word.
In the end, there is no choice but to compromise.
They came all the way without sleep, and they were already exhausted.
At dusk, the faint afterglow sprinkled on the earth made people feel a little warmer, and the sky gradually turned dark.
Li Zhenshou ordered them to be placed here, and he never gave them a drop of water to drink, nor did he come to see them again.
Xiao Yongde licked his chapped mouth and continued to discuss the points on the map with the soldiers, Xiao Yongjue gave some opinions from time to time, although most of them were rejected by Xiao Yongde.
After such a discussion, they didn't even notice the sunset, and if it weren't for the housekeeper of the Li Mansion, they wouldn't even know what time it was.
"The little one is the general."
The butler's voice sounded from the side, interrupting Xiao Yongde's conversation.
Xiao Yongjue looked at the housekeeper and snorted coldly, not having a good impression of him at all.
Although it is not up to him to arrange for them to live, he doesn't even prepare a quilt for them, and this housekeeper and Li Zhenshou are also in a nest of snakes and rats.
"The master said that the generals have worked hard all the way, and they must have not eaten yet, so he specially asked the little one to bring food to you."
As soon as the words fell, several family members behind him walked up to Xiao Yongde with wooden barrels and put them down.
"Even if you know each other,"
Xiao Yongjue sighed, but when he looked down at the barrel, he was angered again.
This Li Zhenshou humiliated them again and again!
"Let's see for yourself if this is something that people eat!"
This time, Xiao Yongjue couldn't help it, grabbed the butler's collar, and prepared to punch down.
Seeing this, the family next to him pulled out a knife from his waist, and aimed the sharp tip at Xiao Yongjue.
I'm afraid that if the housekeeper gives an order, these family members will definitely take him down regardless of Xiao Yongjue's identity.
The soldiers behind Xiao Yongde were not to be outdone and drew their knives, they were angry from the beginning, if it weren't for General Xiao's face, they would have gone to Li Zhenshou to ask for clarification.
"Yongjue!"
Xiao Yongde scolded, but Xiao Yongjue still refused to let go.
The butler grinned, not nervous at all.
"Vice General Xiao, you are angry, you also know the situation in the frontier, the people are so hungry that they can't even drink a mouthful of porridge, now we are lucky to have gruel, and we adults also drink gruel every day."
"Besides, now is a critical period, if you hurt your harmony in this big move, I'm afraid you will lose both, after all, the people in the Li Mansion are not vegetarians."
This is quite threatening.
"Yongjue!"
Xiao Yongde shouted heavily, and Xiao Yongjue let go of his hand.
This is porridge, this is clearly pig water, and there are still vegetable residues and moldy smell in it.
This kind of stuff is called how they eat!
Li Zhenshou even had jade jade on the door at the door, how could he eat such a thing!
This is not convincing at all!
"General Xiao, you are still reasonable, this gruel also has some vegetables and meat in it, all of which were specially ordered by our master, General Xiao should not waste our master's heart."
After the butler finished speaking, he laughed.
With a wave of their hands, the housekeepers put away their knives and left after the butler.
"Eat, I'll think of a way."
Seeing those people leave, Xiao Yongde spoke.
These pigs are obviously inedible, how can the soldiers eat these things when they are exhausted all the way, even if it is a bowl of ginseng water with only a few drops of rice, but how can they eat like this?
"General, these people are too deceitful!"
The soldiers said aggressively, and Xiao Yongde also knew, but what could he do now?
Under the fence, you must endure it.
"You rest first, I'll go find you something to eat."
Xiao Yongde put down these words and walked outside, even though the soldiers behind him shouted without looking back.
In the room
Li Zhenshou was in no mood to eat the delicacies on the table, every day was these delicacies from the mountains and seas, and he was not tired of it.
"How's it going over at the stable?"
Li Zhenshou saw the housekeeper coming, waved his hand, and the maid on the side withdrew these dishes.
These dishes are all poured out, but even if they are poured out, he doesn't want to give them to Xiao Yongde.
"Master, as the master said, those people are angry, and the expressions on their faces are extremely interesting, but it's a pity that the master can't see it with his own eyes."
The housekeeper laughed as he spoke, and Li Zhenshou sneered.
It was Xiao Yongde who harmed him, he couldn't get along in the capital, and he was relegated to this kind of ghost place, and he can remember this 'grace' for a lifetime.
Li Zhenshou wiped the corners of his mouth with a handkerchief and sneered.
"The undefeated god of war of the dignified Chu Kingdom also has this end today, if you want those old foxes in the capital to know, you will have a good show."
With a slight gaze, Li Zhenshou smiled confidently, but he was a little cold.
In his eyes, Xiao Yongde was self-inflicted, when he begged him, but he was merciless when he handed him over to the emperor, did he ever think that there would be such a day?
"Xiao Yongde definitely won't be able to eat pig water, he will definitely go outside to eat, have you said hello outside?"
"Yes, the little one has already said hello to the people over there."
The housekeeper replied and smiled.
At night, the moon has climbed the branches, and the cold wind howls.
The soldiers outside the stables had no choice but to hide in the stables and lie on the grass, taking the sky as a cover.
It's just that his stomach hasn't eaten since morning, and he is growling with hunger, and Xiao Yongde has been out for two quarters of an hour and hasn't come back.
Xiao Yongjue hesitated and felt uneasy.
Just as he was looking forward to it, Xiao Yongde returned.
It's just that his face is covered with color, and the corners of his mouth are bleeding, but he doesn't see anything that can fill his stomach.
"Dad, Dad, are you okay?"
"General, General!"
The soldiers shouted in unison with Xiao Yongjue, and Xiao Yongjue hurriedly walked over to help Xiao Yongde, who was limping, his clothes had become dirty.
Xiao Yongjue helped Xiao Yongde to sit on the horse grass, and his hand smoothed Xiao Yongde's air.
His eyes were ruddy, his father was a general of the Chu State, when did he suffer such a grievance?
"No... It's fine, but I'm not going home empty-handed, there's still ... There is a steamed bun left. ”
Xiao Yongde took out a cold steamed bun from his arms, and the steamed bun had been pressed and deformed.
"General, what the hell is going on!"
Xiao Yongjue stared at Xiao Yongde with both eyes, and even his title changed from father to general.
"It's not a big deal, I was attacked by a few earth house people, I just went out and found that someone was following, I wanted to get rid of them, I didn't want to be bypassed by them, this circle went to the alley, there were many people on the opposite side, my old bones are useless, if it was before, those people are not a problem,"
Xiao Yongde hammered his waist and passed the matter perfunctorily in a few words.
Xiao Yongjue was skeptical.
"How did the general know that those people were from Tsuchiya?"
"They weren't wearing local clothes, and their weapons weren't swords, but axes, knives, and the like."
"Okay, I'm fine, it's just this steamed bun ......"
Xiao Yongde looked at the steamed buns in his hand, one steamed bun was not enough for these people.
He knew what Xiao Yongjue wanted to say, but now these soldiers were full of hatred towards Li Zhenshou, if he said that this matter was done by Li Zhenshou, these people were afraid that they would overthrow the Li Mansion.
The people of Tsuchiya are not stupid, if they are, how can they deliberately reveal their identities?
And Li Zhenshou seemed to expect that he wouldn't speak, and he wasn't afraid of being known by Xiao Yongde that it was him, so he deliberately did it so obviously.
