Chapter 47 Zombie Village

On this day, Li Ling came back from practicing the splits. She was in a good mood, and she was about to succeed!Just a little bit.

When Li Ling returned to the place where the Li family's carriage was, the curtain of the carriage was open.Li Ling saw Xiao Chao sitting in the carriage at a glance. Xiao Chao lowered his head and smiled, embroidering a red wedding dress.

In the apocalypse, there are hesitant and mournful expressions everywhere, but when Li Ling saw Xiao Chao, although she was dressed in coarse linen, her face was radiating with happiness.

Li Ling smiled and jumped into the carriage, knowingly asked: "Xiao Chao, are you embroidering a wedding dress?"

Xiao Chao's face turned red and she said shyly: "Second girl, every time you see me embroidering a wedding dress, you have to ask me this question. You must have done it on purpose!"

"Hehehehe..." Li Ling smiled and tilted her head close to Xiao Chao: "I did it on purpose, haha! Xiao Chao, tell me, marry Liu Jin immediately after he asks you to sew the wedding dress. How long it takes is all up to you - this is for you to decide when to get married, right?"

Xiao Chao raised her head, her eyes rolled around, and the corners of her mouth were smiling. Instead of answering Li Ling's question, she said angrily, "Second Miss! Don't make fun of your slaves anymore!"

"Okay! I'll let you go for a second first," Li Ling said quickly, before asking, "Why are you here alone, and where are the others?"

Xiao Chao lowered her head, and while she was sewing the wedding dress patiently, she said, "In the past few days, the wild vegetables nearby have been lit up. Today, Brother Liu Jin will take everyone to a place farther away to look for them."

"That's right... what about my aunt? She's gone too?"

It would be okay if Li Xuanming, Li Zhi, and Li Jingshu went to a farther place to pick wild vegetables.If there are many people, we can get more.But An and Aunt Qian probably don't have the physical strength to travel far.

"Yes!" Xiaochao's tone dropped slightly, and said, "My aunt said that sooner or later she will get used to living in the doomsday, and she can't always be unable to do anything. So my aunt offered to go. After hearing this, the master said, I praised my aunt. After hearing that the master praised my aunt, my wife was a little unconvinced, so she followed."

"I see."

"Oh, that's right," Xiaochao remembered another incident, and said, "Brother Lieluo said that he found a small village in a mountain stream ten miles away. The small village is not big, and no one knows martial arts. Probably the people inside have turned into zombies. But Lord Lieluo said he was going to check it out, maybe he could save one or two people by luck. The eldest girl followed suit."

"The small village in the mountain stream, originally...it should be a paradise," Li Ling sighed, "If no one knows martial arts, it is probably a village of 'zombies'. You think Li Jingshu has gone too? "

"That's right! The eldest girl said that she hadn't actually killed a few zombies before. She wanted to practice killing zombies, and when they met again in the future, she would be more confident."

Li Ling stroked her chin: "Does Li Jingshu want to join the army?"

The two were talking when they suddenly heard a voice coming from far and near.

The voice was loud and sad, and people could hear the words inside clearly at once.

"...Yesterday at Xushi, the emperor died, and it was rumored that he was the crown prince Sima Zhen. Because the army moved the capital, everything was kept simple, and weddings and banquets are banned for one month today. The heavens share the sorrow..."

Li Ling's eyes widened, he exchanged a glance with Xiao Chao, and whispered, "His Majesty the Emperor... died?"

Xiao Chao whispered back: "...His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is about to ascend the throne."

The two poked their heads out of the carriage, and saw a tall man in armor riding on a horse, holding a bright yellow imperial decree in one hand, repeating the words just now loudly, while continuing to walk towards the back of the army.

"...Yesterday at Xushi, the emperor died, and it was rumored that he was the crown prince Sima Zhen. Because the army moved the capital, everything was kept simple, and weddings and banquets are banned for one month today. The heavens share the sorrow..."

The tall guard rode away gradually, while the people who stayed in the same place either showed a dazed look, or looked numb, or sobbed.

I don't know how many people cried out a few times: "Your Majesty..."

"His Majesty……"

All of a sudden, among the entire army that moved the capital, the atmosphere of mourning became more intense.

"It's already the end..." Li Ling sighed: "In addition to the death of the emperor, probably...everyone is even more at a loss."

Holding the wedding gown in both hands, Xiaochao looked at the glowing red wedding gown. Xiaochao's eyes were full of hope: "Second Miss, don't worry. Everything will be fine."

Li Ling turned to look at Xiao Chao, smiled, and wanted to make a few jokes, but thought about the sadness everywhere, so he held back his words.

After all, the death of the emperor was such a sad event for the whole country, and Xiao Chao couldn't embroider the wedding gown anymore. She put away the half-made wedding gown, and sat quietly in the carriage just like Li Ling.

Not long after, Liu Jin and the Li family all came back with a basket of wild vegetables in their hands.When everyone heard the news of the emperor's death, their expressions were different.

Liu Jin and Li Xuanming both looked dignified and mournful, and they all bowed towards the front of the army.

Li Xuanming knelt down towards the front of the army, An Shi pulled Li Zhi, and Aunt Qian pulled Li Ling to follow Li Xuanming's movements, and bowed to the front of the army.

When everyone got up, there was a strange light on An's face: "His Royal Highness, are you going to ascend the throne?!"

Li Xuanming stroked his beard, with a mixture of joy and sadness on his face: "That's natural. Your Majesty is driving the crane west, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will rule the world."

An's face couldn't help showing joy: "Then, then we 'Jing Shu' are not, aren't we going to enter the palace directly to become a concubine?!"

When the crown prince ascended the throne, "Li Jingshu" was a marriage bestowed by the late emperor, so her status was naturally different from that of an ordinary concubine.As long as she enters the palace, she will be a high-ranking concubine next to the crown prince and the prince's side concubine!
Li Xuanming coughed and glanced at Li Ling, with a satisfied look on his face: "Ahem! The new emperor will decide this matter. But now, marriages and funerals will be banned for one month..."

Normally, when the old emperor passes away and the new emperor ascends the throne, the time for banning weddings and funerals is definitely not more than one month, but in the end of the day, the army is moving the capital again, and everything is simplified.Only banned for one month.

An Shi lowered her head, and glanced at the small package in the carriage, which was the package she had brought out from the mansion.An Shi bit her lower lip, her hands in her sleeves were tensely clenched and then opened, clenched and then opened...

Seeing An's appearance, Li Ling felt a little strange.

Li Xuanming's "Li Jingshu" entered the palace, she was talking about her, but not the real Li Jingshu, why was An so nervous and excited? !

Could it be that An Shi thinks that as long as she, Li Ling, enters the palace, the Li family will be able to live a good life in the future?

On this day, the Li family had a peaceful meal, but An's expression was a little special.

In the evening, Lie Luo and Li Jingshu also came back.

Hearing the news of the emperor's death, Lie Luo's face remained unchanged, and he bowed to the front of the army.

Li Jingshu's expression was indifferent, and she glanced at An Shi, then walked to An Shi's side, held her hand, pressed her hand against An Shi's ear, and said softly: "Be safe and don't be impatient."

An looked up, looked at Li Jingshu, and asked, "How about that small village? Are there really zombies?"

Li Jingshu looked at the wind blowing leaves in the mountains and forests, her expression was as calm as water, and said lightly: "Of course. It is exactly as we expected."
