The Peach Blossom Luck of Rebirth

Chapter 696
"Master! Master!" Bao'er's voice came, and a bag of food and a pot of water were dropped from the air.

Gao Shuang took it, looked up, and saw Bao'er turned into a tit, talking to him.

"Bao'er! What's the matter?" Gao Shuang asked.

"Master! The country of Lu is in danger! Rong Guo, Fan Guo, and Gan Guo will gather the power of the three countries to attack our Lu country! Although our Lu country is fighting against the war, we are outnumbered!" Bao'er is worried about Lu's future.

"Is there such a thing?! Our country of Lu has always implemented a policy of good-neighborliness, friendship and equality. How could it be like this?" Gao Shuang was really surprised.

"Master! It's a long story! Hurry up and go back! Once the war breaks out, it will be out of control!" Bao'er said anxiously.

"Okay! I'll go back right away!" Gao Shuang ate some food, drank a sip of water, and at the same time fed some water plants to the horse, and then, with the whip on his horse, "driver" set off proudly.

The three of Li Yuanhao and his party continued on their way, passing Xiaohuangzhuang, Dongjiao Township, Daoxiang County, Habayashi County. It was getting late at this time, so they could only find someone's house here for a night.

He knocked on the doors of many houses, but no one came to answer them.

Li Yuanhao, Zhao Feixue, and Liu Yunxiang wondered why they refused to come out and open the door!

Since Zhao Feixue was pregnant and traveling a long distance, she urgently needed to find a place to rest.

When he walked to the last house in the village, he didn't open the door either. Li Yuanhao said to the gate in person: "This elder brother! This elder sister! We are guests from afar! It's getting late, we need to stay overnight!"

The people in the courtyard still couldn't believe it, but said timidly: "Aren't you sent by the tax collector to collect grain and pay?"

Li Yuanhao shook his head and said, "Do you think we look like us?"

The middle-aged man inspected Li Yuanhao, Zhao Feixue, and Liu Yunxiang from the crack of the courtyard door, especially Zhao Feixue, and it was obvious that he was pregnant.

The wife next to him said to the middle-aged man: "Twenty thousand, judging from their accent, it seems that they are from the capital! They should not be sent by tax collectors! Let's open the door! Don't make people wait outside for a long time!"

Hearing his wife's words, Zhang Erwan quickly took the belay from the gate of the courtyard, and Li Yuanhao said to the couple, "Thank you two brothers and sisters!"

Zhang Erwan quickly closed the door and pressed it with the pressure bolt.

Li Yuanhao said to Zhang Erwan: "Excuse me, we knocked on the door of almost every house but didn't open the door. Why?"

"Ah! The tyrannical government is as fierce as a tiger! In the past few days, tax collectors have come to our village every day to collect exorbitant taxes! It has made us restless!" Zhang Erwan said with some fear.

"Oh! So it's all like this!" Li Yuanhao suddenly realized that, just like Hedong County, the people below were burdened by taxes.

As it was getting late, many words were not convenient for conversation.

Li Yuanhao and Zhao Feixue lived in a room, and Liu Yunxiang also lived in a spare wing outside.

In the evening, Zhao Feixue felt the child kicking in his belly, and felt the pain was unbearable. In order to take care of Zhao Feixue, Li Yuanhao got up and went to the kitchen to cook a bowl of sour plum soup for Zhao Feixue.

Due to the large pot and stove used in the kitchen, Li Yuanhao was ashamed to cook this bowl of soup. When the sour plum soup was served in front of Zhao Feixue, Zhao Feixue was moved to tears when he saw Li Yuanhao's face was black and ashes.
