Such a low-brow, submissive and spineless look would make even her, a mother, angry, not to mention the emperor.
"I heard that there has been a lot of turmoil in the DPRK recently, including the fall of Yingzhou and the invasion of the Southern Barbarians. There has been quite a bit of criticism in the DPRK. Your Majesty is really worried about this matter. Your Majesty, I think this is a good time."
The queen's eyes darkened, and the corners of her mouth raised slightly. It seemed that she had to take the initiative.
…
At this time, Pei Yubing and the others had entered Luocheng.
"Sister, it's getting late. Let's find an inn to rest and make plans tomorrow."
Pei Shuxue glanced at Pei Yubing and saw through her sister's thoughts, but she didn't say anything and had no choice but to agree.
Inside the inn.
Pei Yubing sat in front of the window, thinking a lot.
Tomorrow I have to join the Hu family. I don’t know what the Hu family is like, but how can they be simple even if they are officials?
Could it be that the fate of the two sisters really depends on others?
It would be nice if all the people I met were as simple and simple as Chu Huizhou.
Chu Huizhou...
Thinking of this name, Pei Yubing looked towards the bedroom opposite.
After thinking about it, she decided to try again.
"Bang bang bang."
Chu Huizhou opened the door and was not surprised to see Pei Yubing.
"Why are you still not sleeping? You will go to Hu's house tomorrow. Are you worried?"
Chu Huizhou spoke first and then welcomed the people in.
Pour a glass of water and bring it to Pei Yubing.
"Thank you." Pei Yubing took it, lowered his head and took a sip of water, "I can't sleep."
"I see."
Chu Huizhou sat down opposite her.
The candlelight reflected on their faces.
Pei Yubing had a lot to say, but he didn't know how to speak at the moment.
"Mr. Chu, what are your plans for the future?"
Chu Huizhou shook his head, "I don't have any ideas. Let's talk about it after I send you to Hu's house tomorrow."
"Mr. Chu, I want to ask you the question last night again." Pei Yubing summoned up the courage again, and by the candlelight, a pair of clear and expectant eyes flickered, "Mr. Chu, can you marry me?"
How determined she was to let a girl say this, let alone the second time after being rejected.
At this moment, Pei Yubing felt that his face was about to burn red.
Tick tock, tick tock...
Pei Yubing was so quiet that he seemed to be able to hear his own heartbeat.
"why me?"
After a while, Chu Huizhou asked.
"I said, I don't want to marry someone I don't know. If I really defect to the Hu family, the fate of our two sisters will be out of our control."
After a pause, he added: "The most important thing is that I think you are a good person."
Chu Huizhou was startled and looked into Pei Yubing's deep and expectant eyes.
Eyes facing each other.
"You and I have only known each other for a few days. I don't even understand myself. How can Miss Pei feel this way?"
Chu Huizhou sighed slightly. He was a person who came from time-travel and did not understand the owner of this body. He could not agree to marry Pei Yubing. The most important reason was that he did not belong here. One day, he would return to his own home. The world goes.
If he agrees to Pei Yubing and disappears one day in the future, he will probably push Pei Yubing into a worse situation.
Therefore, he cannot agree.
"Miss Pei, my answer has been made very clear."
Pei Yubing's eyes dimmed instantly. Sure enough, she had humiliated herself again.
"Mr. Chu, I'm sorry to bother you.
Pei Yubing stood up and left. The moment she closed the door, she said, "I don't want to enter Hu's house." Although her voice was weak, it was full of firmness and determination.
When Pei Yubing left, Chu Huizhou was still sitting in a chair in a daze, his eyes slightly lowered and he didn't know what he was thinking.
Pei Shuxue, who was sitting below, could clearly feel that Pei Yubing's mood was not right. He looked at Pei Yubing and saw that there was no Chu Huizhou next to him, and guessed the reason. However, after thinking about it, Pei Shuxue was about to arrive in Luo City soon and did not say anything. ask.
After a while, Chu Huizhou came down and looked at the porridge that the waiter served them. He said that he had a headache. The porridge was too thin. It was full of water. You could count how many grains of rice were in the clear bowl, but after all, we were in this environment. There is no other way. After all, the food provided by the inn is pretty good.
Pei Yubing knew that the incident just now had nothing to do with Chu Huizhou, so he said, "Mr. Chu, you should eat quickly before you can go on the road." Chu Huizhou thought in his mind whether the word "go on the road" was a bit weird. What about? On the surface, Chu Huizhou said "Okay." He hurriedly ate quickly.
After leaving the inn, Pei Shuxue decided to leave for Luo City immediately.
Pei Yubing said, "Wait for Jiang Yun. After all, none of us can drive this carriage well."
Pei Shuxue lowered his head and looked at the small bamboo stick in his hand, "Sister, don't wait for Jiang Yun. Let's leave a signal for Jiang Yun on the way or send him a message when we get to the Hu family. I thought of the Hu family and the whereabouts of father. It will be easier to find."
Pei Yubing knew that Pei Shuxue had made up her mind, and she was not worried about letting Pei Shuxue go to Luo City alone. Her father was no longer around, so they relied on each other. This was what her father said.
Pei Yubing found a horseman who could know the way better. The reward was a steamed bun, but he kept one at that time. Now the silver was worthless and there was not much left, so they didn't have much food. Pei Yubing originally thought that he would be hungry on the road. But now there is obviously no other way.
The groom didn't want to, but after seeing the steamed buns, his eyes flashed with gold and he suddenly thought of his family. He tore off his clothes, wrapped the steamed buns in cloth, and hid them quickly for fear that others would see them and take them away. Then he was very flattering and followed Pei Yubing to the inn to meet him. He saw that Pei Yubing had really brought back a groom, although he didn't know what method he used.
...........
In a ruined temple.
A group of people were trudging along. Their faces were haggard and their clothes were ragged, as if they had experienced all the suffering in the world. Among this group of escapees, the leaders were a woman and a strong man who stood out.
While escaping, they stumbled upon an abandoned temple. The temple is in dilapidated condition, the murals on the walls have faded, and the Buddha statues are covered with cobwebs and dust. However, for this group of refugees, this place is a temporary refuge.
However, the environment in the temple is so bad. No food, no water, not even a glimmer of life.
Unexpectedly, several stronger men walked in. There were five of them, each of them strong but ruthless.
At first, when they saw so many people, they thought they would have something to eat, so they started looking for food everywhere, but the temple was empty. People were searched all over, and hunger made them gradually become restless and even have crazy thoughts.
Eventually, they didn't find any food, so they turned their attention to other people. They started to arrest people. At first, the stronger one could stop him, but he was still no match for the five people and fell down. At first, the five people were a little stunned. The one with squinted eyes said to burn his body, burn Xu Shitai. When he was hungry, the other shorter man walked forward involuntarily. Perhaps he had a taste of it. Later, several people turned their attention to using weak and unable to resist people as food. The tragedy of cannibalism took place in this temple.
