Chapter 557

Inside the castle
The people on the street were bustling with people, and although they were not all fat and white, they did not look like they were suffering from hunger.

The group of people thought they were dazzled when they looked at the scene in front of them.

Especially the one who said he was weak before, now his face just feels hot.

Although Yu Dongren had some guesses in his mind, he couldn't help but be shocked when he saw such a scene. He remembered the people he saw on the road before.

See you all.

It is very ironic to say that the people under the emperor's rule have almost no way to survive, but the people under the king of Qi are still free and easy.

He couldn't see any false appearance on the faces of the people here, and the smiles on their faces came from the bottom of their hearts.

Their lives are the same as before the natural disaster, with little change.

If we really want to find some traces, it should be that the clothes on these people are not as clean as before.

But even so, compared with other people outside, they still seem to be living in heaven.

"Why is it still like this here? Could it be that it's raining here?"

After all, some people still didn't believe it and asked a question that seemed very stupid.

Cang Xiuxuan's people originally didn't plan to tell them more about this, but looking at his aloof appearance, they really didn't like it no matter how they looked at it.

"Why do I listen to what you mean? Can we control the wind and rain or what? You tell me where it is raining now?"

"You! I asked you in a nice voice, you have this attitude. It turns out that everyone under Cang Xiuxuan is the same as you."

As a person close to the emperor, he naturally needs to be supported wherever he goes. Now that he is being said like this, how can he feel happy in his heart.

"I don't feel very happy about that!" Cang Xiuxuan frowned and scratched his ears, then punched the person who just spoke with his backhand.

"If you want to say that I can do it, but not if it involves my master. If I were you, I would never dominate others' territory."

This is a very kind reminder.

Smart people can't understand the meaning behind these words. No matter how angry they are, the matter will just pass like this, and the punch will be in vain.

You know, those words before sounded like a reminder, but they were also a threat.

It was also this punch that made them sober up, and they remembered what the situation was like now. This was not their Dajong, although it was the territory of the rebels that they despised. If others wanted to attack them, they had no room for resistance. None.

Yu Dongren also came over to persuade, "We are under the roof of others now, and don't forget the purpose of our coming here. We have offended people so much that nothing can be done. I won't be able to do business when I go back, and I'm afraid you won't be much better off either." .”

"Quiet down quickly. If you let me hear those words from before again, don't blame me for being rude."

The leader of the people sent by the emperor also made the matter very clear, and some of the more grumpy people could only suppress their displeasure.

But looking at this new city, they felt inexplicably unhappy.

It seems that it hasn't rained here either, but these people can live and work in peace and contentment because the traitor Cang Xiuxuan robbed them from the Rong people before.

That's right, they quickly settled the matter on Cang Xiuxuan's previous purchase of grain.

In their opinion, if Cang Xiuxuan had not purchased so much food before, they would definitely be the same as outside now, or even worse than outside.

The hardships faced by the people outside were all caused by Cang Xiuxuan.

Now they even want such a person to help. They think it is an insult to Dayong.

Fortunately, as long as Cang Xiuxuan retreated from the enemy, the emperor would deal with him.

"Our master is quite busy these days, so please wait. Your accommodation has been arranged for you. However, we are unable to provide you with food due to the current food shortage. You still need to solve it yourself."

He took the people to an inn in the city to stay, and Cang Xiuxuan's people left.

And the words he left behind made these people roll their eyes and almost roll their eyes to the sky.

The people here obviously have such good food, but when they come here and say they are short of food, they are causing trouble for them.

"Master Yu, you'd better go find the traitor as soon as possible. I can't stay here any longer."

Yu Dongren was noncommittal. Who is King Qi? Can he meet him just by saying he wants to?Since others have been sent over and their accommodation has been prepared for them, it is natural that they have to wait for notification.

He would never act without permission without notification from the other side.

"You are responsible for protecting my safety. Now that I have arrived safely, I hope you will allow me to do things my own way."

"Master Yu, what do you mean by this?"

Yu Dongren smiled, "Of course it means literally."

"I hope Master Yu will not regret it."

Several people sneered and turned around to find their own homes.

Yu Dongren was not afraid that such a blatant threat was false, but now he had no other choice.Or maybe, he felt that Cang Xiuxuan was the person who could solve his current predicament.

**
As the person said before, Cang Xiuxuan was very busy and did not have time to meet them now, so they were very depressed for two days after they arrived here, and they could only stay in the inn.

As for the food you need to eat every day, you have to spend money to buy it in the inn alone, and the price is not low.

A meal must cost at least several dozen taels of silver.

Although they were sent by the emperor and brought enough money, they would not be able to hold on for long if this continued, and it would be difficult to explain when they returned.

Except for Yu Dongren, everyone in the group simply walked out of the inn and prepared to go outside to take a look.

After the previous shock, they are now a little more accepting of the living conditions of the people in this city, but only slightly.

Sometimes they even want to break the smiles on these people's faces.

But the most important thing now is to find something to eat. The food in the inn is too expensive, and they feel that people from Cang Xiuxuan are deliberately trying to trouble them.

They decided to go out and check out other restaurants or something, and simply eat something that wouldn't cost so much money.

This new city did not disappoint them. After searching for a while, they finally found the Shiwei Pavilion.

"This restaurant is still open, let's go in and take a look."

The group of people looked for many places, but almost no restaurants were visited. Although they were a little annoyed, thinking about it again, this is the true state of the situation. If all the restaurants here are still open, then it really is Something is wrong.

"Shiwei Pavilion? This name is so familiar."

"Isn't it just a restaurant? I think the names are similar."

"That's right, let's go in first."

There were still people eating in twos and threes in the Shiwei Pavilion. They looked at their table as if unintentionally. Although there were only two or three dishes, which were completely incomparable to before, there was still meat on the table.

The group of people suddenly felt that their saliva was flooding.

In the past period of time, they had never even seen broth, let alone meat.

In Dayong, due to the food crisis, all the animals that could be slaughtered were taken care of by wealthy families and powerful people. Even if they were in the palace, they would not receive such treatment.

The grown man was already good at this, how could he still hold it back now?

After finding a few tables to sit down, we started to order.

"Waiter, let's have some of your store's signature dishes. Make sure you have enough meat!"

There were quite a few of them, and as soon as they came in, the originally deserted Shiwei Pavilion suddenly became lively. After the shopkeeper sitting behind the counter saw them, the smile on his face did not disappear.

"Please wait a moment, gentlemen, I will prepare this for you all."

These are all fat sheep, and they must be slaughtered.

The shopkeeper personally answered the call, which made them feel relieved. It seemed that they could really enjoy a big meal today.

This time they didn't greet Yu Dongren when they came out. When they saw the food on the table, they felt that what they did was very correct.

Their current behavior is actually not allowed by the emperor, but after all they have been hungry for so long. Now they have this opportunity, they must have a good meal. At the moment, their relationship with Yu Dongren is not very good. If this happens He found out about it, and they couldn't bear it when he talked too much in front of the emperor after he returned.

"Boss, you eat first, brothers are waiting."

Looking at the meat on the table, the people below gave the chopsticks to their boss first. Only when the boss moved the chopsticks could they let go and eat.

The boss was not polite at all and directly picked the largest piece of meat and put it in his mouth.

The people below also picked up their chopsticks and stuffed the meat into their mouths.

"This smell is really something I haven't seen for a long time."

"Yeah, I almost thought the last time I ate meat was a lifetime ago. The taste is so wonderful."

"It would be even more beautiful if we had some wine."

There were six or seven meat dishes on each table, all of which were eaten in less than a quarter of an hour, but everyone still looked like they were still unsatisfied.

"Shopkeeper, please have another one."

Someone shouted again.

Their boss did not stop them and allowed them to drink. "There will be a jar of wine at each table."

Naturally, the shopkeeper would not refuse this kind of money-making thing, so he immediately ordered people to get the wine.

The guests at the other tables were all shocked when they saw their generosity. According to this way of eating, wouldn't these people eat thousands of taels?
Now the only restaurant open in their city is the Shiwei Pavilion. The price was relatively expensive before, not to mention now. It was not easy for them to dare to come to the tooth ceremony.
