The Sims: The Emperor Raising Project

Chapter 53
Liu Bian and his party galloped along the official road, and drove seventy miles in one breath. Seeing that the sun had already set and the sky was gradually darkening, they had no choice but to find an abandoned guesthouse beside the official road, and temporarily rest.

When Liu Bian dragged Tang Ji into the guest house, there was a low-pitched growl suddenly from the guest house, and Tang Ji couldn't help shivering in fright from the roar.

Seeing this, Liu Bian quickly stretched out his hand to take her into his arms, comforting her softly: "I am here, don't be afraid."

After calming down Tang Ji's emotions, Liu Bian protected Tang Ji behind him, and immediately carried a spear in his hand, and walked slowly into the guest house.

Seeing this, Yu Wencheng, who was tethering his horse to a wooden stake outside the guest house, hurried over with a gold-plated phoenix wing.

Yu Wencheng rushed to Liu Bian's body, and said: "Your Majesty, be careful, I heard this sound should be howling wolves. After I drive them away one by one, it will not be too late for Your Majesty to go inside to rest."

Liu Bian put his hand on Yuwen Chengdu's shoulder, and immediately raised his eyebrows at Li Ru with a smile, and said, "Wen You has always been quick-witted, why don't you invite Wen You to enter the guest house and talk to Hungry Wolf, if it makes sense Best, if it doesn't make sense, you can also ask Wen You to ward off evil for us."

"After the hungry wolves have had a full meal, they will leave on their own initiative." Liu Bian looked at Li Ru with a half-smile.

"good."

Hearing this, Chai Shao clapped his hands and laughed, then pushed Li Ru hard on the back, causing him to stagger.

After Li Ru straightened up and stood up, he shook his head speechlessly, then reached out to brush off the dust on his body, turned around and glared at Chai Shao angrily, "It's really an insult to gentleness."

"what? What?"

Chai Shao picked his ears, and said: "You are worthy of saying the words insulting gentleness? How dare you talk about gentleness in front of Lao Tzu, a disloyal and unfilial rebellious person like you?"

The more Chai Shao talked, the more angry he became, and finally he swung his whip and slapped Li Ru hard on the face.

After a scream, Li Ru stretched out his hands to cover his face, and at the same time, his face was filled with an expression of disbelief.

"Bitch."

Chai Shao raised his hand holding the horsewhip tightly, pointed at Li Rudao: "If you dare to mention the word "gentlemanly", I will let you taste the horsewhip again."

Li Ru let out a heavy cold snort, and turned his head away, not looking at him anymore.

After a good show, Liu Bian had no intention of continuing to play tricks on Li Ru, so he waved his hand to Chai Shao and said, "Killing people can't be done without nodding their heads. Don't Sichang frighten people with a horsewhip at every turn."

"Your Majesty taught me."

Chai Shao nodded, and went to tie the horse outside the guest house, following the unfinished business of Yu Wencheng.

Liu Bian patted Li Ru on the shoulder with a smile, and comforted him: "Sichang is young and energetic, Wen You should not be as knowledgeable as him, now you are the key person in our team, I hereby promise, You will never let others harm you."

"Man is a sword and I am a fish. Since Confucianism has fallen into the hands of the king, naturally there is nothing to say."

Li Ru sighed helplessly, then turned his head aside and stopped talking.

Just as Liu Bian and the others were talking in front of the door, there were a few painful wailings from the inn. The next moment, Yu Wencheng came out with a smile, and said, "Your Majesty, we are lucky tonight."

As Yu Wencheng said, he invited Liu Bian and others into the guest house, and said: "There are four wild wolves in the guest house, and two wolf cubs, all of which have been killed here by the minister."

"It seems that we can have a full meal tonight."

Liu Bian stretched out his hand and patted the body of the already dead wolf, and said with a smile, "Everyone has been on the road for a day, and they must be hungry. Let's light a fire and cook."

"Your Majesty, wait a moment, and I will come as soon as I go."

As Yuwen Chengdu said, he hurried to fetch water from the well outside the guest house.

At this time, Chai Shao had already tied up his horse, and came in with a large bundle of dry firewood.

Seeing this, Liu Bian quickly took out the flint from his bosom, and soon a small bonfire was lit.

Tang Ji followed Liu Bian obediently, intending to step forward to help, but she didn't know where to start. After a while, her forehead was sweating from anxiety.

Since Liu Bian was abolished by Dong Zhuo as King Hongnong, Tang Ji's mentality has undergone a great change. When she was in Hongnong Palace, all she thought was that as long as she could live a peaceful life with Liu Bian for a few years, she would be happy. Good.

However, after she successfully escaped from the Hongnong Palace with Liu Bian, her thoughts changed slightly. Now all she thinks about is learning some basic life skills. If she can spend a few years with Liu Bian The life of men farming and women weaving seems to be good.

Tang Ji, who has suffered a lot, is a person who can take the initiative to make changes as the environment changes. The lady who used to be in the Kuaiji prefect's mansion has disappeared with the wind like fluff in the wind, and now only one is alive. A woman who is willing to make a difference for her husband.

The saying "marry a chicken, follow a chicken, marry a dog, follow a dog" is vividly reflected in Tang Ji.

When Yu Wencheng took the dagger from his waist and was about to disembowel the wild wolf, Liu Bian quickly reminded him: "Tang Ji is timid, don't scare her."

Seeing this, Yu Wencheng quickly grabbed the wolf's body and walked quickly to the outside of the guest house.

Tang Ji lowered her head and fiddled with the brocade handkerchief in her hand, and said softly, "It's fine."

Yang Xiu, who was sitting in the corner, looked at the scene in front of him silently, and couldn't help but let out a sigh of emotion, saying: "If I had been born in a family of ordinary people, maybe I wouldn't have suffered so much."

Li Ru, who was sitting two steps away from him, curled his lips in disdain, and said with a snort, "What's so good about ordinary people? Which of your tenants in the Yang family has a smiling face every day?"

"I really don't know what it means." Li Ru said.

Yang Xiu frowned upon hearing this, turned his head to look at Li Ru, and said displeasedly, "None of your business."

"Er is a thief who killed the king, and after I have been loyal and good for generations, what right do you have to talk to me? It's really unreasonable." Yang Xiu curled his lips with contempt.

"Nearly half of the land in Hongnong County is owned by your Yang family. This is also called generational loyalty? The people have no land to farm, so they have to rely on you and others as tenants. Throughout the year, those who help your Yang family cultivate land , but can’t even eat a full meal, people like you who spend so much time searching for people’s fat and people’s anointing are worse than the maggots in the hut.”

"Hongnong Yang is just a silverfish attached to the court, how dare you say loyalty?" Li Ru retorted.

Hearing this, Yang Xiu was furious. He stood up quickly, pointed at Li Ru, and shouted, "Hongnong Yang, at least he has never done anything worse than a beast like a messy palace, and you waited for the barbarians of Xiliang , but stayed overnight on the dragon bed, and his heart was not a beast, why did this happen?"

Hearing this, Li Ru curled the corners of his mouth silently, and a look of success flashed across his eyes.

Seeing that Li Ru was sitting there and didn't speak anymore, Yang Xiu insisted on saying, "Say it, why don't you say it? Hmph, Xiliang bastard, it's nothing more than mediocre."

As Yang Xiu said, he was about to show off his victory to Liu Bian and others, when he happened to see Liu Bian looking at him with a half-smile, so he quickly closed his mouth.
