With Zhou Shiyue's help of Qinggong, they quickly avoided Su Qianhu and others and left the village.

When they returned to the grove, they had already made a simple shelter out of branches and covered it with cloth to block out the fire behind.

Everyone sat by the fire, eating dry food and drinking hot water.

Yin Yunting ate quite elegantly.

He tore off a piece of dried meat with his hands and put it into his mouth, chewing it slowly and swallowing it.

The other guards were biting their teeth heroically, so Yin Yunting seemed to be in a leisurely mood at this moment.

Lu Zhaoling came over and saw this scene.

She looked up at Zhou Shiyue and said, "Didn't you say that my senior brother was crying because he was worried about me? Look how deliciously he is eating now."

After saying that, she looked at Yin Yunting with contempt. "Master brother, you are still the same as before. You treat a piece of jerky as if it were some exquisite delicacy."

"I'm crying?"

Yin Yunting raised his eyebrows and looked at Lu Zhaoling, "I told you, Senior Sister will be fine."

His eyes turned towards Frog Brother.

"Is this another ghost?"

Is this a male ghost? Is the King of Jin willing to let the senior sister take care of this male ghost?

The emperor suddenly floated out.

Frog Brother was a little timid at first when he saw so many people, but then he saw the emperor suddenly appear.

He noticed the bright yellow dragon robe the retired emperor was wearing, and his eyes widened instantly.

"He, he he he..."

Although he had never seen the emperor emeritus or the emperor, he knew what the dragon robe looked like!

Who dares to wear the dragon robe casually?

But, has the emperor passed away? Is this the emperor?

No, no, no, even if the emperor has passed away, he should not appear here!

Frog was extremely shocked.

"Old man, can you see it?" Zhou Shiyue asked the emperor.

The emperor almost rolled his eyes at him.

"nonsense."

They are both ghosts, so why can’t he see it?

"Master Ling, he can't see?" He asked Lu Zhaoling again, "Did he bring this person from the village? You don't want to take him with you, do you?"

Although he always felt that Zhou Shiyue, this naughty boy, was not worthy of Master Ling, he could also see the boy's sincerity towards Master Ling.

The boy can't see the male ghost, but as his father, since he can see it, he might as well ask for him.

"However, even if Master Ling really wants to take him with him, you must have your reasons."

He changed the subject again, and this sentence was addressed to Zhou Shiyue.

Anyway, you can ask clearly, but Master Ling must have her plans for whether to take this male ghost with her, so don't make a fuss.

As a man, it is not good to be jealous. You should be more open-minded.

Zhou Shiyue understood the look in his father's eyes and his heart sank.

Is he still your biological father?

He hasn't even asked the question yet, and you want to teach him a lesson?

The other guards also stood up.

They couldn't see Frog at the moment.

Lu Zhaoling felt that there was no need for this. It didn't need to be seen by everyone. Anyway, Brother Frog just had something to say to Zhou Shiyue.

She wiped Zhou Shiyue's eyes.

Zhou Shiyue saw Brother Frog.

"He is Brother Frog. He was originally a soldier in the army and a native of Cuosha Village. He returned to the village to help with work and encountered a massacre of the village..."

Lu Zhaoling briefly explained the situation and said to Zhou Shiyue, "Do you want to talk to him alone?"

She could have avoided it if she wanted.

"You go and guard it."

Zhou Shiyue said to all the young people.

The young men received the order and immediately stood up and separated to guard the four directions.

"Is there anything you can't listen to?" Zhou Shiyue held Lu Zhaoling's hand tightly.

Lu Zhaoling was subconsciously trying to take advantage of him because Zhou Shiyue had been holding her waist all the way out.

Once close to him, she can't help but grab him. Maybe this has become a conditioned reflex.

Zhou Shiyue didn't know whether he knew that she had handled such a big thing in the village and was now very exhausted, so he deliberately let her take advantage of him.

Anyway, now he kept holding her hand tightly.

"Yes, yes, Master Ling, you can listen to everything, even some things he can't listen to."

The emperor quickly followed up with a sentence.

Now their Great Zhou cannot keep any secrets from Lu Zhaoling.

I was counting on her help.

Frog Brother was a little confused.

"Master, I, I want to see Prince Jin, they..."

When he saw the emperor's dragon robe, he was stuck again.

"This is the Emperor."

Lu Zhaoling told him frankly, "This is the King of Jin you are looking for."

"what?"

Frog Brother was confused.

After a while, he finally believed what was said and fell to his knees.

"Greetings to the Emperor, greetings to the Prince!"

"Okay, is there anything you want to tell me?"

Zhou Shiyue still felt a little uncomfortable at the moment.

Far away in the southwest, there was a soldier who had been looking forward to seeing him, but now he has this honor.

I always feel a little sorry for this little soldier.

Will it disappoint him?

"Prince Jin, there is a traitor in the army!"

As soon as Frog Brother opened his mouth, he said this.

The emperor stood up straight and his expression became serious.

King Jin looked at him and spoke calmly.

"Oh? Tell me, what kind of traitor is this? Do you know who it is? What did the other party do?"

My brother has always felt that there is something wrong with the commander of the garrison in the southwest. Could it be that he really guessed it right?

Brother Frog said quickly, "I discovered it by accident. A year ago, the capital city allocated military rations to us. The amount of military rations was not small. Some people said that you wrote a letter to the emperor and asked him to allocate it."

Lu Zhaoling looked at Zhou Shiyue.

Zhou Shiyue nodded slightly.

"There is such a thing."

At that time, he passed through the southwest, and although he did not investigate much, the soldiers he saw were all thin and looked weak in their lower bodies. It was obvious that they did not look like they were well fed.

How can soldiers like that have the energy to train properly?

If a war really breaks out, how can they go into battle and kill the enemy?

So he went to check the situation of military rations and found that there was a shortage of rations and the soldiers could only eat until they were 40% full every day.

But at that time he had other things to investigate, so he just asked someone to check whether anyone had withheld military rations. The result was no one, but the amount allocated by the court was indeed not enough. So he wrote a letter back to Beijing, asking the emperor to send more food and fodder here.

The emperor was still alive at that time.

When the retired emperor heard about this, he had a serious talk with the emperor, so a lot of military rations were allocated that time.

"I know about this, too. There was a lot of military rations transported over at that time. Could there be a problem?"

The emperor's face darkened.

"After the military rations were delivered, everyone was indeed fuller than before, so they all bowed and thanked God for his grace."

Brother Frog said, "But, I went from eating only 40% full to eating only 60% full."

"Later, when Captain Su and I were out on patrol, we discovered a newly pressed road with traces of carts."
