one laughed non-stop.There were five tables set up in the courtyard. Li Laosan and Wu San Shu, Wang Si Shu and others accompanied three local officials, along with more than ten villagers who had come..."Is the message true"
He asked coldly, and Ye Shan quickly nodded. "Things have been stirring in Kyoto. I'm afraid it will reach here in three or five days."
Young Master Ye abruptly stood up and ordered, "Pack your things, and set off for the capital immediately."
Ye Shan pulled the still clueless Dong Mei away and immediately got ready.
All the members of the Li family were baffled. Li Laotai asked,
"Young Master Ye, are you leaving already Just wait a moment. We've smoked some rabbits at home, and there are also some dried goods. Let me just prepare them, and we can take them together."
Tao Hongying and Zhao Yuru also hurried to get up, but they were pressed down by Ye Gongzi's hand.
"Auntie, please get the children away. I have something to tell you."
Seeing his grim expression, Li Laotai quickly called Zhao Yuru out to take Jia Anjiaxi away.
When it was Jia Yin's turn, she hugged her grandmother tightly and refused to let go.
At that time, in the room, there were only Li's parents and Zhang the divine physician.
Lady Ye only then spoke, "The barbarian army of a hundred thousand from the north has suddenly invaded, breaking through the border defenses and marching straight towards the capital."
At court, they were discussing relocating the capital to Zhou Prefecture, using the natural defenses of the Jinsha River to protect against enemies.
Get your family ready immediately, head south to Zhuzhou Prefecture and find me.
I will arrange accommodation for you!
"You must leave as soon as possible, the faster the better!"
These words were like bombs, exploding in everyone's ears and leaving them stunned.
The border has been breached, and 100,000 barbarians are about to attack Kyoto
Junyang County is only three hundred miles away from Kyoto. Wouldn't the barbarian iron cavalry arrive in the blink of an eye
Li Laotai's legs went soft and she fell straight down, nearly knocking over Jia Yin.
Master Ye reached out and embraced Jia Yin.
Jia Yin hugged him tightly, as if this would ease the unease in her heart.
Mingming had already fled from the north to Kyoto, with a house and land, having settled down.
Although I have excellent relatives, the villagers are friendly and helpful.
To live a slow life in such a place, with a happy and peaceful family, wouldn't that be wonderful.
Why, all of a sudden, was it all broken!
The entire nation must relocate south! Even the emperor and his court are fleeing for their lives!
That's a joke!
Master Ye felt the little body in his arms trembling, and upon looking down, he saw that Jia Yin's small fists were clenched tightly, her face flushed red.
For some reason, he just knew that this child was incredibly angry.
It's infuriating how weak and pathetic the Heavenly Martial Dynasty is!
"Our Heavenly Martial Empire has suffered from years of natural disasters and constant infighting at court. Even the military supplies for our border troops are not guaranteed. How can border soldiers who go hungry resist the barbarian cavalry"
But rest assured, the Jinsha River's treacherous currents will surely hold back the barbarians.
"You must set out at once and make haste to the Prefecture of Zhuzhou."
He spoke, taking a waist token from his bosom and placing it in Jia Yin's hand.
"This is my token. When you reach the Tezhou Prefecture, try to find the residence of Xin Tingbo and present this token. Even if I am not there, someone will arrange for you."
Jia Yin clutched the token tightly, finally feeling a sense of security in her heart.
She is not afraid of the long journey, nor is she afraid of the many difficulties, but she fears that there is no end.
With this token, Young Master Ye will surely remember the life-saving grace and wouldn't treat him like the Liu family did back then.
Li Laotai and the others also seemed to have thought of this, their hearts slightly relieved.
Everyone also wanted to prepare things for Young Master Ye, but he refused them all.
Since you have to travel day and night, the less you bring, the better.
But when he was about to leave, Zhang Shenyi changed his mind.
"I'm an old man, I can't take any more trouble. You all go ahead. I'll stay here and go to Zhoushu Mansion with the Li family."
The Li family was overjoyed, after all, with a divine doctor by their side, they wouldn't have to worry about illnesses or injuries.
They all looked at Master Ye together, and worried about Master Ye's illness. Without a divine doctor by his side, would it relapse
Miss Ye did not hesitate, and readily agreed.
"Alright, then we'll converge at Zhouhui. From here, head south and keep moving swiftly; one month should be enough."
The Li family quickly thanked them, and Jia Yin suddenly struggled to be hugged by Young Master Ye.
Li Laotai thought her granddaughter was throwing a tantrum and wanted to coax her a few times.
Miss Ye had already received the good news and passed it on. Jiayin hugged him tightly, kissing him on the face as a thank you.
Young Master Ye smiled and patted her on the back.
"Fú Niū, stay with your family and be good. We'll see each other again."
Jia Yin nodded and twisted back into Grandma's arms.
Young Master Ye cast a deep glance at the Li family's courtyard, then spurred his horse, taking Winter Plum and Ye Shan with him, and quickly disappeared without a trace.
The Li family stood at the door, their hearts feeling a little empty, but mostly confused.
When the family finally entered the room, they stood in silence for a long while.
"I really don't want to leave this house," Li Laosan said softly.
"Mother, should we wait a little longer What if the barbarians are stopped in Kyoto..."
Li Lao'er sighed, "Lao San, don't think about it. If we could stop it, the capital wouldn't have been moved. The emperor is running away, and if we stay, we're just giving the barbarians a sharp knife."
Li Laosi also nodded, "Let's go, we have to go! It's not just the bandits' matter. If we leave too late, the road will be full of refugees fleeing south, and it will be more dangerous."
Tao Hongying wanted to speak, but before she could open her mouth, tears flowed down her cheeks.
Zhao Yuru wanted to persuade, but in the end she embraced her sister-in-law and cried out in pain.
From the vast grasslands, I have come all this way. I endured so much hardship and suffering along the journey.
That kind of displacement, no one wants to experience it a second time.
But just one year, only one year, the family had a house and land.
Children study and run errands, they work in the kitchen, farm and chop firewood.
Like swallows carrying mud, they built this small home so beautifully.
Suddenly, it was all going to be shattered.
Becoming a bereaved dog again, scurrying away in panic...
"Oh, I don't want to leave!"
"I don't want to leave either, such a nice house, oh no, it's gone again."
Old Li's face also turned pale, luckily she still had Jia Yin in her arms.
"Milk! Milk!"
The granddaughter's voice gave Li Lao Tai a bit of strength back. She took a deep breath and straightened her back.
"At this point, it's probably useless to worry. Living in such a chaotic time, just surviving is a blessing."
If we can move from the frontier to here, we will surely be able to safely reach Zhuzhou.
For the sake of the children, we have to steel ourselves.
Li Lao'er and his brothers immediately chimed in, "Mother is right, there's no time to waste crying."
We need to make plans early. Over a thousand four hundred li, it will take at least a month on the road. We must be well-prepared!
As a mother, one becomes strong. When it comes to their children, Tao Hongying and Zhao Yuru also wiped away their tears. "Mother, shall we start packing our luggage now"
"Second brother, get me some paper and pen! We all need to think about how to handle this. Don't leave anything out, so we don't get cheated on the way."
Grandma Li instructed her son, and Li Lao Er immediately took paper and pen. The crowd brainstormed together and began to make a list.
The first thing is to bring Jiaren back, and the second thing is to harvest all the crops with all our might, bringing home enough food for the whole family.
The third thing is to notify the village head and the old men next door, reminding the villagers to prepare in a low-key manner.
The fourth is to prepare things well. On the way, you need to be prepared for food, clothing, shelter, self-defense, and protection from rain and snow...
Three unrefined scoundrels, with Zhuge Liang on top.
Everyone talked about whatever came to mind, and it took a full half hour before they finally reached an agreement.
Then, it's time to divide the tasks, everyone has their own responsibilities.
Jia Yin listened attentively, feeling she had already considered everything carefully. She then turned her attention to her own thoughts.
Two updates first, there will be another update around 5 o'clock.nder the eaves, looking out. Seeing her son and granddaughter return from outside, she couldn't help but chuckle and ask: "You two must have picked up silver outside, laughing until your mouths reach...
