Many images flashed through Chen Xiaobei's mind.
Ten serial crossbows and concealing ordnance were a serious crime, and he was almost exiled. Fortunately, the prince issued an edict.
You must repay this kindness.
The best way to repay the favor is to ensure the absolute safety of the prince.
Chen Xiaobei's tossing and turning made Cui Hongyu open his eyes in his sleep.
"Husband, are you worried about something?"
Chen Xiaobei nodded, "It's nothing, I just think there must be some mystery behind the fact that the prince accompanied the villagers into the mountains."
"Husband, you think you don't have enough manpower. Let me find you two helpers."
"Looking for help, who are you looking for?" Chen Xiaobei asked subconsciously.
"Of course it's Sister Zi Yan and Sister Huang Ying, they are both very powerful in martial arts..."
"No, no, the conditions on the mountain are difficult. How can two girls stand it?" Chen Xiaobei immediately shook his head and refused.
Cui Hongyu smiled calmly, "Don't worry, it's nothing. It's normal for the two of them to sleep in the open air while learning martial arts."
"But the people who go up the mountain are all old men. It's not convenient for two girls to be together."
"Besides, the children in the village still need to study!"
Cui Hongyu smiled sweetly.
"I can come to teach the children, and I can take over for Zi Yan for a few days."
"As for Huang Ying, the villagers are busy with the autumn harvest these days, and there are not many people there."
Although Chen Xiaobei had never seen Shen Ziyan and Huang Ying's kung fu with his own eyes, he was able to catch Hu Lao Qi and the others in three strikes, five by five, and two, so his kung fu must be good.
If the two of them go up the mountain with him, he will feel more at ease, otherwise he won't even have a kung fu person around him.
It was dark and bright the next day, and Chen Xiaobei got up.
First, call the village guard team leader Chen Dachun, and tell you all the important things and trivial matters, and then select four village guard team members, Chen Dayong and Chen Daqiang, plus Chen Xiaobo and Chen Xiaowen.
After all, we were going up the mountain to collect herbs, so it was not appropriate for them to be all burly men. We had to find two thin ones, like Chen Xiaowen, like myself.
Cui Hongyu trotted away to do the work of Chen Ziyan and Huang Ying.
As soon as they met, she took Huang Ying's hand and rushed into Shen Ziyan's room.
Encountering such a hurry, Shen Ziyan couldn't help but smile and asked, "What's wrong with my sister? She's so anxious."
Cui Hongyu got straight to the point, "Two sisters, I am here to beg you this time."
"My husband has to protect His Royal Highness the Crown Prince on his way up the mountain today, but none of their village guards know how to fist and kick. If we encounter any bad guys, I'm afraid..."
As soon as Huang Ying heard that Huang Ying was coming, she immediately stepped forward and said, "Sister, please don't worry, we will just go up the mountain with Brother Xiaobei. With us here, we can guarantee that nothing will go wrong."
Before she finished her sentence, Zi Yan spoke first, "Sister Huang Ying, isn't this appropriate? We are teachers. What will happen to the children when we leave? What will happen to the villagers?"
Cui Hongyu hurriedly interrupted and said, "Don't worry, sister Ziyan, I also know a few words. After you leave, I will teach the children for you. As for the villagers, they have been busy harvesting these days, and not many people have come. "
After hearing what she said, Huang Ying echoed, "Yes, yes, it's better to just give the villagers a few days off."
Shen Ziyan looked at Huang Ying helplessly.
In fact, she understands very well that Huang Ying is a person who likes to have fun and is eager to have this kind of thing happen.
Letting Huang Ying teach was originally intended to temper her temper, but now it seems that it has little effect.
But Cui Hongyu said it all for this reason, and Shen Ziyan couldn't agree.
"Since it is to protect the safety of the prince, then I will sacrifice my life to accompany you."
Cui Hongyu was very happy after hearing her words.
"Okay, okay. The two sisters will pack up and go to my house for dinner later. After breakfast, you can set off."
At this time, Chen Xiaobei was also busy at home.
Give everyone a serial crossbow, this is a must.
In addition, you should also bring the few landmines you made, just in case.
I also had to take a few of the two kickers I made myself with thick arms. It is convenient to rely on this communication in the mountains.
After he finished packing several large bags, it seemed that the four village guards couldn't carry them.
At this time, Ma Xiaoyi and others arrived. They were much simpler. Each of them had a baggage, some food, and a water bag, and nothing else.
Seeing that Chen Xiaobei had prepared so many belongings, Ma Xiaoyi couldn't help but smile, "Brother Xiaobei, you don't look like you went into the mountains to collect medicine."
One word awakens the dreamer. Chen Xiaobei finally came to his senses and realized that it was right. Carrying so many things on his back didn't look like gathering medicine.
"Then make it more streamlined." Chen Xiaobei took four backpacks and placed two mines in each backpack, two secondary kickers, and a serial crossbow, which already took up more than half of the space.
Add some more food and drink, and it's basically full.
That's all.
Just when he was ready, Ma Biao came with Prince Xiao Jingyun.
The first time he saw Jamel Xiao, Chen Xiaobei was a little surprised.
In his previous life, he had seen countless princes and princes in TV dramas. They were all handsome and handsome men. He thought they were just TV dramas.
When he met Xiao Jingyun this time, he realized that the prince was really handsome, not just ordinary handsome.
Although he was wearing coarse clothes, he still looked majestic.
But this really doesn’t look like a villager from Hetou Village.
After Chen Xiaobei greeted Xiao Jingyun, he bravely said, "Your Highness, I have something I don't know whether to say or not!"
Prince Xiao Jingyun smiled slightly and said, "Chen Aiqing, just say what you have to say."
Chen Xiaobei pointed at Xiao Jingyun's hair and then at himself, "Your Highness, look at your hairstyle, you look like a rich man. We villagers are all like this."
As soon as Chen Xiaobei said these words, Ma Biao's expression changed slightly and he hurriedly said, "Chen Xiaobei, don't speak arrogantly. How can His Royal Highness be like you?"
Prince Xiao Jingyun raised his hand to stop Ma Biao and continued, "I think Chen Xiaobei is right. We agreed at the beginning that we had to pretend to be villagers. Wouldn't it be easy to be neither fish nor fowl? Someone saw through it.”
"But." Ma Biao was so anxious that he was a little incoherent, "My subordinates don't know how to put on makeup!"
Just then, I heard a deep voice from behind, "Would you like to put on makeup? I can, I can."
Everyone looked over following the sound and saw two village girls standing at the entrance of the courtyard.
Dressed in coarse cloth, with even some gray hair, and an earthy gray face, he looked like a proper mountain citizen.
Who is this?
Cui Hongyu looked at them carefully and then shouted in surprise, "It turns out to be Sister Ziyan and Sister Huangying."
Chen Xiaobei finally came to his senses. Huang Ying shouted a few words in a rough voice just now, but he didn't react for a while.
