I was exiled and I took away my supplies and ran away with my whole family.
Chapter 145: Enemies from both sides
The corpse of the imperial envoy was hung at the entrance of the military camp, which indeed caused a huge sensation. While everyone in the army was speculating, their faces were full of joy as if they were about to celebrate the New Year.
The general is back, they have a backbone, and they killed the imperial envoy as soon as he came back, and also rescued three brothers who were destined to die. Who could be unhappy with it?
Speaking of this, it feels like a divine help!
How could he have been saved if he hadn't been so seriously injured? What's more, if the treatment is given on the same day, it will be smoother the next day.
If you say it's not a god descending to earth, they won't believe it.
During the execution, they all witnessed it with their own eyes, and each blow was struck with the utmost force.
Fortunately, the three brothers had relatively good health, otherwise they might have died on the spot.
What a crime.
Many people asked about it, but did not get a definite answer. They only received a cryptic smile, saying that they would naturally know in the future.
This behavior aroused everyone's curiosity, and they were scratching their hearts, especially wanting to know what happened.
But no matter what, I can't find the answer.
There was a lot of commotion in the military camp. Finally, this wave of speculation was ended by the aroma coming from the cooking camp.
The fragrance was very overbearing and carried far away along the wind. It was a smell that no one had ever smelled before.
Everyone's greedy minds were aroused, and they couldn't wait until noon so they could hurry over and see what kind of food was so delicious.
It’s such a good thing, can it be their turn to eat it? Don’t they all have to be trapped by the nobles in the capital?
But when lunch time came, everyone was shocked to find that the yellow stick-shaped food was actually for them to eat.
And in order to celebrate the return of the general, there is no limit to the food available today, so everyone can eat until they are full.
Everyone had not experienced the feeling of being full for a long time, and they were often woken up by hunger in the middle of the night. Especially after the dog imperial envoy came, he treated them even more harshly.
I haven’t even worn my cotton-padded clothes. I only wore them from last year. I had to sew and mend the torn areas myself, which didn’t protect me from the cold at all.
Ugh.
But now that the general is back, they can finally eat enough, and the day when they can wear warm clothes is definitely not far away!
The general dared to kill the dog imperial envoy and expose his body directly in the wilderness, which was very satisfying.
The people below didn't know the actual situation, so they only regarded what Imperial Envoy Gou said as "the general's family has been exiled", "he is going to die", and "don't count on it" as farts.
Look, the general is back fine now, and the major general is also here. It's completely different from what the dog officer said. It turned out to be a lie to them.
The morale in the military camp was so high that they just set off firecrackers to celebrate.
No one cared about the corpse of the imperial envoy, and it kept hanging at the entrance of the military camp. It had been frozen hard for a long time, and the exposed skin was covered with frost.
Fortunately, no one in the military camp had seen corpses often, and they weren't afraid when they saw them. Otherwise, they wouldn't have been able to hang them like this forever.
After lunch in the military camp was finished, the Shen family and his son estimated how long they would have enough corn to last, and tragically discovered that they really couldn't let everyone eat with open stomachs.
The corn that was originally expected to be enough for twenty days, now looks like it will be enough for half a month.
The two people who were originally happy immediately fell down. Without Mianmian's help, they would all have starved to death this winter.
The two began to worry again.
Returning to the North is not the beginning of a happy life, but one must be prepared to solve one problem after another.
This place was already in shabby condition, and the Beidi cavalry would come over to attack at any time. In addition, military pay and supplies were delayed...
It is simply a matter of internal and external troubles, and enemies from both sides.
It was plagued by the Dog Imperial Envoy for several more months, and it became a complete mess riddled with holes.
From now on, there will no longer be any supplies distributed in Beijing, and they will all have to rely on themselves. If it weren't for Mian Mian, Shen Zhiheng wouldn't know how to work hard to turn decay into magic.
Even if you put in all your efforts, you can't change the outcome of the Northern Territory.
Beijing likes to exile criminal officials here, and its original intention is not to build a border, but to send these people over to be cannon fodder for Beidi.
He learned this word from Mianmian.
No one thought it could be built here. It is a barren land. It is freezing cold for half of the year. People can do nothing but huddle at home.
How to build such a place?
It's simply out of motivation.
When the father and son went home at night, they were still feeling a little heavy.
*
After Shen Xingmian prepared the potatoes and sweet potatoes, he released the superpower on all the corns again, making them grow into their fullest size, and then he went to catch up on his sleep in a good mood.
When I woke up, it was already afternoon.
She quickly called Xiao Yanyue while it was still dark, changed her clothes, and planned to go to the restaurant in the morning to have another look.
When we arrived, the restaurant was extremely lively, with at least three tables of people!
It was incomparable to the prosperity of the capital city, but compared to the situation in the morning when there was no one at the table, Shen Xingmian actually felt contented.
Her ability to adapt is really strong.
This time no one with a bad eye bumped into her. She pulled Xiao Yanyue and sat in the middle against the wall. She happened to be able to hear almost all the conversations between the three tables.
After ordering a few signature dishes, she looked at the decorations in the restaurant and listened to the chatter of these people, hoping to hear any news from those people in the morning.
But until the dishes were served, I didn't hear anything useful.
Is there any news about the good tea shop and restaurant?
How come she didn't overhear anything?
Aimed at her, right?
Of course, the more likely reason is that there are too few people here, or in other words, there are too few idle people.
The reason why gossip spreads so quickly in the capital is because there are too many idle people. They have nothing to do after they are full every day. The most interesting thing is to be a pawn in the melon field.
But the people here are different. The climate is not suitable for wandering around. The poor cannot afford this kind of place, and the rich have cooks at home.
I probably only come to the restaurant when I want a change of taste.
Until they were full, they didn't hear any useful news. The people at the three tables were all talking about their own affairs.
When it was finally time to settle the bill, Shen Xingmian gave the waiter a few extra taels of silver. The waiter immediately beamed with joy, bowed and thanked him repeatedly, and his attitude suddenly became extremely enthusiastic.
Shen Xingmian took advantage of the situation and started chatting with him. As they chatted, he pointed to the broken place on the stairs and asked in surprise: "Huh? What can break such a strong piece of wood? Then It takes so much strength!"
"Oh, sir, to tell you the truth, this happened just this morning."
The waiter came closer and whispered, not forgetting to take a peek at the people at the three tables. Seeing that no one was looking at him, he continued talking.
