Marry a powerful minister and remain a widow?I’m done with the book-wearing female role!

Escorted by a team of tens of thousands of people, Jiang Yuzhu traveled with great pomp.

When there are more people, although there are some inconveniences in terms of food, accommodation and transportation, in the face of safety, these small shortcomings are nothing.

Mr. Huo selected more than twenty brothers who were the best and most righteous in martial arts. They took turns staying on duty at night in groups. Even the slightest disturbance could not escape the eyes of these people.

With nothing to do, Jiang Yuzhu also chatted with her brothers. She learned that these people were not bad in nature and had no choice but to join Zhou Pingjiang and the Huo couple.

"Madam, you really picked me up. Cui Ji has the best kung fu, even better than that of the slaves."

Hong Jin just had a fight with Cui Ji, but she still had more to say. When she learned what happened to him, Hong Jin couldn't help but sigh and said, "It's really the hemp rope that specializes in cutting at the smallest point..."

Cui Ji was in his early 30s. He was originally a martial arts master. Because of his upright and honest temper, he offended people in the government. His several-year-old son was instigated to jump into the lake to catch fish. He was washed away by the fast current. He was found a few days later and had already soaked. swelling.

In great grief, Cui Ji's daughter-in-law became unconscious and was raped by her enemies. When she regained consciousness, she realized that she had lost her innocence and missed her son too much, so she hanged herself with a rope.

Cui Ji's father and mother were in poor health. They were so angry that they vomited a few mouthfuls of blood and passed away one after another.

Relatives blamed Cui Ji for being against others and offending people in the government, and they were worried about being implicated, so they broke off contact with him.

"Cui Ji killed his enemy in a rage, but he was so merciful that he let his enemy's several-year-old son go."

Hong Jin smacked his tongue, chatting with Cui Ji about the past, and said angrily, "He is more kind to a woman than a slave. That little brat was instigated by his own father to trick Cui Ji's son into the river. His original intention was to harm others. One life would cost him One life is fair!”

"After Twiggy escaped, Zaizi informed the officer of his hiding place, causing him to be shot by an arrow and left him breathless."

Risking his life, he climbed up the mountain to hide. The smell of blood attracted wild beasts. If he hadn't happened to be met by Zhou Pingjiang who was hunting, how would Cui Ji have survived?

"Is this why Triggie stayed in the mountain?"

Jiang Yuzhu sighed, rather than believing that human nature is inherently good, it is better to believe that those who are close to black are black.

Instigating one's own flesh and blood to harm others shows the ruthlessness of parents.

Such a scumbag doesn't deserve offspring, so he might as well send his whole family on the road.

Hong Jin said again: "No, after Cui Ji recovered from his injury, he occupied a mountain to take in his brothers and the poor people who couldn't blame him. Later, he led thousands of people to defect to Zhou Pingjiang."

Seemingly remembering something, Hong Jin asked worriedly: "Madam, among the tens of thousands of people, what if there is someone hiding behind the scenes to keep a watch on you, and it will be detrimental to you?"

"Do you think there are few people who want to do harm to us?"

A sneer suddenly appeared on Jiang Yuzhu's lips, "There are more in the dark places where you can't see."

"Hongjin, you are too preoccupied. There are some things we cannot control, so we only need to control most of them."

Take Zhou Pingjiang and Huo for example. Although they took refuge in Jiang Yuzhu, they were not loyal to each other. Instead, their chosen escape route had been blocked by Jiang Yuzhu.

As long as there are temporary benefits, it can be done.

"Yuanhe takes one step and sees three steps, but I can't see that far. Let's talk about the future later."

Jiang Yuzhu covered the tea cup and said to Hong Jin, "These brothers are very skilled. They all have strength and their own tricks. Let's see which one of them is willing to give guidance to Dali and the younger sister and help them find some masters."

Huang Dali and Huang Xiaomei are born with supernatural powers. If they can learn a few tricks, they will benefit even more.

The path of Hongxiu and Hongxiu is too light and not suitable for a brother and sister.

Upon hearing this, Hong Jin thought it was feasible and said with a smile, "That would be the best."

After all, the Huang family brothers and sisters are their own people.

Along the way, Jiang Yuzhu fulfilled his promise. There was wine and meat along the way, and a big dinner every day.

As we enter the fifth month of the lunar calendar, the weather in the south is getting hotter and hotter.

It was hot during the day, and the carriage was like a big steamer, making people restless.

Hongli and local farmers bought sheepskins and sewed them into a water mat.

Get up early, pour cold spring water, and spread it on the car bench.

It was cold under her body, and several maids took turns fanning herself. Even if the wind was still hot, Jiang Yuzhu felt much more comfortable than before.

After the sun turned west, the water on the cushions had already warmed up and was poured out for washing.

It was a hot day and Jiang Yuzhu was suffering from summer pain. Seeing the greasy and fat meat, he retched and suffered unspeakably.

At this time, Aunt Lanhua fully played her role.

In order to ensure the balanced nutrition of Jiang Yuzhu, cold noodles, cold noodles with shredded chicken, and cold sesame sauce wontons are not greasy at all, and they also ensure that there are vegetables and meat.

Aunt Lanhua was not stingy and taught several chefs in Zhou Pingjiang's team. If they passed by the village and bought a lot of ingredients, the brothers could occasionally add red bean cakes and mung bean cakes to eat. The rough guys were raised fine.

The further south they went, the more everyone noticed something unusual.

"Mrs. Xie, I often go to Jiangnan to sell goods. There are many caravans coming and going on the official road. Ever since we entered the boundaries of several cities in the south, why haven't we seen any caravans coming back from Jiangnan?"

Zhou Pingjiang and the Huo family were sitting in the mountains, and many brothers followed Cui Ji.

"It's just that we didn't see the caravan. There are still many scattered refugees under the official road."

Last year, when there was a flood in the south of the Yangtze River, the DPRK and China distributed relief rice, grains and money, which helped the affected people tide over the difficulties.

There hasn't been much rain this year, so I haven't heard of the bridge being washed away.

"How about we stop and go find out?"

The sun was shining brightly at noon, and there was a river not far from the official road. Cui Ji suggested that it would be just the right time to replenish the water source.

Jiang Yuzhu readily agreed, took out a roasted chicken leg and stuffed it into Cui Ji and said, "Brother Cui, go and inquire, and pay attention to your safety."

Aunt Lanhua brushed the skin of the roasted chicken legs with a layer of honey, and baked them to resemble tiger skin.

Jiang Yuzhu still had no appetite, so she simply gave it to Cui Ji.

For the more than [-] guards, Jiang Yuzhu often gave these people little tricks, just to cultivate their feelings.

When Cui Ji heard this, he nodded heavily, feeling warm in his heart.

These years of wandering outside, knowing that he was carrying a life-threatening lawsuit, few people took him seriously.

Jiang Yuzhu was different. She could understand his difficulties very well. Just for this rare understanding, Cui Ji was willing to risk his life.

He bit the chicken leg and left humming a tune.

Seeing this scene, Hong Li tsked: "Others pay a lot of money to buy people's hearts, but Madam only needs a roasted chicken leg."

Jiang Yuzhu glared at Hongli and said angrily: "I can still use a beauty trick to marry a girl like you!"

People are different, so you have to decide what to eat.

People like Cui Ji, whose families have experienced great changes and have been destroyed, no longer value money.

After leaving for half an hour, Cui Ji rushed back, followed by a man who shared the same face. The three of them looked like brothers.

Cui Ji's expression was not very good. He pushed the three brothers forward and said, "Madam, they escaped from Su City."
