Chapter 62
Song Hengye has been in the army all year round, and his taste is stronger than others, so tonight's meal is very suitable for him. He generously took the cake to thank him, and slowly ate it up under Song Chengye's envious eyes.
Seeing this, Xue Lin'er hurriedly grabbed the last piece of cake into her hand, and said with a flattering smile: "So it's the young lady's handicraft, that concubine can eat an extra piece."
Pretending to put the pancakes to her mouth and biting twice, Xue Liner took advantage of everyone's chatting time to secretly hide the pancakes in the handkerchief and put them into the sleeves.
What my aunt said just now was right, I will eat all the prey I killed in one meal tonight, and I am afraid that I will have to eat gruel again in the morning. This pancake is also good for breakfast after soaking it soft.
Lu Qingyou pretended not to see her little movements, anyway, everyone was full, so she could hide it if she wanted.
"By the way, didn't Hengye go to find the path in the morning? How did you find it?"
Although the game is good, Song Chengye still wants to return home as soon as possible. This is also a concern of other people. As soon as this remark was made, everyone turned their attention to Song Hengye.
Song Hengye shook his head: "Indeed, there is a small road leading to Xiguan County near Shangjing, but the road is too narrow and the terrain is high, so you have to turn over a mountain."
That path is often taken by mountain people to gather medicine, and it can only accommodate one person. In addition, a section of the mountain road is close to the cliff, and if you are not careful, you will be smashed to pieces.
Xue Lan shook her head: "That's too risky, let's wait."
"But if we keep waiting, just eating will be a problem." Song Chengye was a little anxious, "The prey is not available every day, and we can't eat for three days."
Everyone understands this, but there is no better way out right now, and it may be dangerous to go out, so the loss outweighs the gain.
"Don't worry, son, I'm already thinking of a way."
As for the specific method, Song Hengye was inconvenient to say clearly, he just said: "In three days, the way to come should be cleared up, everyone just needs to be patient for the time being."
Song Chengye only took him as an excuse, and asked, "Why are you so sure that it will be opened in three days? If you still can't leave, can you take this responsibility?"
Xue Lan was unwilling: "Heng Ye said for three days, you can just wait at ease, if you think it's not feasible, then you can come up with a good solution?"
Song Chengye stopped talking: "Son, aren't you in a hurry~"
"Everyone is anxious. As the prince, what you should do more is to appease everyone's emotions."
The impetuous look was of no use except to embarrass everyone. Xue Lan suddenly thought that if the emperor mentioned the matter of changing the son again, she would just agree and let it go.
Fortunately, he had already made preparations to stay for a few more days. During the day, Zhang Yong had already ordered his residence to be repaired, and a simple bed was made, so he could finally lie down and sleep.
Tomorrow, he had to run around for food, so he left early after dinner. Gu Qingyou and Xue Lan slept in the back room. Hearing the slight snoring sound from the outside, knowing that everyone was fast asleep, he gently pushed his mother.
Xue Lan knew what she wanted to ask, and whispered: "When Heng Ye came back from the army, he brought some elite soldiers with him. Because he couldn't enter the city, he placed them in the suburbs of the city. This time, the soldiers wanted to follow Song Lian to the funeral. But I was afraid of disturbing the palace, so I didn't show up."
Gu Qingyou immediately understood: "So Song Hengye sent someone to ask for help?"
"That's right," Xue Lan turned over and said to her face to face, "I originally wanted to ask for help from the palace, but when I got to the palace, and then waited for the emperor to send troops over, it would take at least three or four days, plus access, it would take less than a week. If we can't go out, Hengye is afraid that we won't be able to hold on for so long."
At this moment, time is life, and the team is only two hours away from here, which saves several times the time compared to going to the palace to rescue soldiers.
Moreover, in terms of mobility alone, they are much more reliable than the captive Imperial Forest Army.
Gu Qingyou was happy to see hope at first, and then thought of a question: "But in this way, wouldn't they be exposed?"
They are people with the Ministry of Rites. Once they get together, they may not be able to hide the news that Song Hengye led his troops back to the capital.
Xue Lan said: "Don't worry, Hengye has already made arrangements. He first sent someone to find the magistrate of Xiguan County, and asked him to summon labor from surrounding counties and counties to enter the mountain pass. The soldiers took the opportunity to change into ordinary people's clothes and mix among them. found."
Who would dare to belittle someone who can work for the Duke's government?
In less than half a day, hundreds of laborers entered the mountain. They were much better at wielding hoes than the Imperial Forest Army. Coupled with the help of elite soldiers, they could clean up in two days at most.
"But the soldiers have to evacuate in advance, otherwise they won't be worthy of their names when they pay their wages, so we have to wait one day longer than expected."
It was rare for him to arrange so carefully. In comparison, Song Chengye was really useless.
But at least there was a deadline, Gu Qingyou slept during the day, and now that he heard the good news, he couldn't sleep anymore.
Thinking: "I have collected all the grain that can be harvested in the village, and Song Hengye's prey is only two pheasants left. Apart from having gruel tomorrow morning, the next two days may be difficult."
"If you can't bear it, you can only endure it. Anyway, you can't starve to death if you don't eat for two days. It's right to lose weight."
Xue Lan was optimistic, pinching the fat around her waist: "Xue's appearance is not bad, but she is a little plump. It would be great if I could give you some more."
Gu Qingyou was also worried that she was too thin: "I guess they were abused by Mrs. Xue in the past. Fortunately, it's the two of us now. We must take good care of ourselves when we return home."
With goods in my belly, I slept soundly.
As soon as he opened his eyes, the sun was already rising, and as expected, his breakfast was gruel. Gu Qingyou ate too much last night, so he didn't feel hungry at the moment. He took a spoon and slowly stirred it in the bowl, while thinking about where else to find some After eating, his thoughts were interrupted by a burst of aroma.
The cook happily entered the door and reported: "Ma'am, look, the two pheasants left yesterday have laid eggs, and the maidservant has fried them in oil. You can eat them while they are hot!"
The golden-yellow oily fried eggs are placed on a white jade plate, and the aroma goes straight to the nose.
Xue Lan was a little moved, but remembering that he had just vowed to lose weight last night, he pushed the plate away: "You guys share, I'm full."
There were only two in total, and they were originally given to her and Song Chengye, but Song Chengye didn't know what to do, so he ran out to hunt early in the morning, and Song Hengye was not there when he went out to check the access, so the only one who was eligible to eat was Gu Qing Yo.
Being stared at by several pairs of eyes, she was too embarrassed to eat alone, so she divided the egg into several small pieces with chopsticks, and put the largest piece into the Shuangjiang bowl: "I ate enough last night, and I'm not hungry yet. , eat it."
Xue Liner was already full after stealing pancakes just now, who thought she was clever but was misunderstood by her cleverness, she looked at the cook bitterly, if there are fried eggs, she should have brought them earlier, she can't eat any more, this is good, it's all cheap Others.
