Chapter 275 The Disappointed Feudal System
This day was the night of the tenth day of the second lunar month in the eighth year of Shenwu. The moon and stars were sparse, and the crows had not yet flown back from the south.
The two figures stumbled along the mountain road towards the north. The temperature here was obviously higher than that of Hangzhou, and Xie Bi'an also came from the north to climb mountains, so the city of Hangzhou should be in the north, but now he is too seriously injured.
, I’m afraid I won’t be able to return to the city tonight.
Lu Yutong was already in shock after the disaster. She didn't care about her status as a princess. At this moment, she only felt grateful towards Jiang Ning. She supported Jiang Ning and walked down the mountain step by step.
After walking and stopping, the two of them had not eaten for a day and a night. Lu Yutong's legs were already swollen. When they walked down the mountain, they found a ruined temple, so they went in to take a rest.
Jiang Ning fell asleep like this. When he woke up, it was already bright. He was leaning under the broken stone statue. The dew had already soaked his bloody clothes. His shoulders were slightly numb. When he looked down, he saw that
It was Lu Yutong who fell asleep with his pillow on his right shoulder. There was a burning pain in his left arm, and a pair of
There was also a mist of white mist hanging on the long eyelashes. He hugged Jiang Ning's right arm with both hands. He didn't know whether it was the numbness caused by the injury or the pillow numbness that night. His chest was still aching, and Lu Yutong's body followed.
The ups and downs of breathing seemed to Jiang Ning to be an extremely erotic scene, but he had no time to take care of it at the moment.
"Hey... wake up..." Jiang Ning shook his left arm. It was already three o'clock in the morning. If he didn't eat something, he might starve to death before he got to Hangzhou.
"Huh? Ah..." Lu Yutong opened his eyes and saw that he was holding Jiang Ning's arm and his chest was pressed against his right arm. He exclaimed and pushed Jiang Ning over.
How could Jiang Ning still have any strength at this moment? He was pushed by Lu Yutong and fell directly to the ground. He bared his teeth and shouted: "Are you crazy?"
Only then did Lu Yutong regain consciousness and hurriedly pulled in some torn clothes and wanted to help Jiang Ning, but she was a little embarrassed and just squatted there, not knowing what to do.
Jiang Ning shouted: "Help me up..."
"Oh...right...I'm sorry...I didn't mean it..." Lu Yutong hurriedly went to help Jiang Ning, helped Jiang Ning up, and apologized again. She was really a little girl who had done something wrong.
Jiang Ning said angrily: "Hey, I really owed you in my previous life. You said you were a golden branch and a jade leaf. I'm not even as good as shit. How can I owe you?"
Lu Yutong's face turned red. Has she ever been so close to a man?
After Jiang Ning finished speaking, he walked towards the outside of the temple.
Lu Yutong hurriedly picked up the baggage on the ground, which contained two sets of clothes that Jiang Ning had taken from Xie Bian and the bandit's den.
"You wait here, I'll get some food." Jiang Ning endured the pain and walked out of the temple.
Lu Yutong sat down on the steps in front of the temple and watched Jiang Ning walking to the side. It wasn't until Jiang Ning disappeared from sight that she suddenly became nervous.
"He won't run away on his own..." Lu Yutong was extremely nervous and didn't know what to do for a while.
After a while, I could only comfort myself: "It's okay, it's okay, no, he will definitely come back..."
This kind of emotion is very similar to that of a wife who is afraid that her husband will not come home, but at this time she doesn't feel it at all. It's just that she is a woman in this wilderness, and the sky and the earth are not working. It really feels like this.
To real despair.
"Damn it, if I can walk out, I will definitely kill you..." Lu Yutong held her chin and looked at the place where Jiang Ning disappeared: "The ugliest thing you saw about me was that you touched my hand, you touched my
Body, if you leave me alone, any one of them will be enough to kill you a hundred times..."
"Kill you, kill you..." Lu Yutong muttered to himself.
"I'm not married yet, I don't have children yet, I can't die, I can't die here..."
"The reform has not yet succeeded, and the General's Office and the Left Prime Minister have not yet fallen. I cannot die..."
"Ah...Jiang Ning, get out of here. I won't kill you. I won't kill you anymore..."
I don’t know how many ways to kill Jiang Ning were thought of, but a figure appeared in the distance, walking a little slowly, but carrying two chickens on its shoulders, rocking back and forth.
"I'm back, I'm back..." Lu Yutong stood up suddenly. She didn't know if she had been squatting for too long, but she was a little dizzy. She stumbled and almost fell off the steps.
But after gaining a firm foothold, he ran towards Jiang Ning.
Seeing this, Jiang Ning frowned and hurriedly waved his hand: "I said, can you calm down for a while? I'm still injured. Eat something quickly and go back quickly. I can't last two days."
Jiang Ning's face turned pale. It was obvious that these two chickens had spent a lot of effort.
Lu Yutong stopped in front of Jiang Ning. Her somewhat happy expression was wiped away by Jiang Ning in an instant. However, Jiang Ning was injured and did not dare to touch him, lest she die in this wilderness and she would not be able to go back.
There is a well in the ruined temple. Although it is abandoned, some water can be pumped out with broken wooden barrels. Jiang Ning boiled the hot water. Naturally, Lu Yutong picked up the firewood. His originally delicate hands were now worn several times.
Although I complained, I could only endure it.
The chicken was de-feathered in hot water, wrapped in straw and mud, and then buried in the fire and roasted. Although there was no seasoning, it could always satisfy the hunger.
"You don't want to eat?" Jiang Ning pulled off a chicken drumstick and handed it to Lu Yutong. The fat on the drumstick dripped off, exuding an alluring aroma.
Lu Yutong shook her head. She had always been particular about what she ate. The official sent three cooks from the imperial kitchen to Princess Changping's mansion. They served six dishes and three porridge in the morning, four meat and four vegetables at noon, and bird's nest and white fungus in the evening.
, every dish is made with carefully selected ingredients, so you can eat what you want no matter what time of the day.
"Don't want to eat? Are you waiting to starve to death?" Jiang Ning put the chicken leg aside, grabbed a piece of meat with his only right hand, and bit into it.
"We still have meat to eat. How many people in the world can't even have a sip of porridge? Banditry and robbers are mostly forced by the government and the people to rebel. You are a princess and live in the imperial court. You may be unfamiliar with these. You eat delicacies from the mountains and the sea.
What you are drinking is nectar and jade dew. You may not like something made in this local way." Jiang Ning chuckled.
But Lu Yutong became unhappy: "Why do you say you don't like me? Don't you mean that I am aloof and do not want to eat the fireworks of the world? I will eat it for you today..."
Lu Yutong's reform strategy was to enrich the people and strengthen the army. Although it failed for the time being, Jiang Ning was not allowed to say this, so he picked up the chicken drumstick and took a bite.
I don't know if it was because I was too hungry, but after taking this bite, my lips and teeth were left with a fragrant aroma, an indescribable taste, and the atmosphere became a bit awkward.
Jiang Ning smiled, tore off the other chicken leg and handed it to Lu Yutong.
"What a burden..." Jiang Ning saw Lu Yutong holding a drumstick in each hand, and suddenly wanted to laugh, and said to Lu Yutong: "Don't call her Princess Changping, call her Princess Chicken Leg..."
Lu Yutong stopped chewing the chicken leg in her mouth, frowned, looked at the chicken leg held in her other hand, and stuffed it into Jiang Ning's arms: "Who is the chicken leg princess? You are the chicken leg, you are the chicken butt..."
"I would rather be a chicken head than a phoenix tail. I have already said this. I am a chicken head." Jiang Ning said with a smile: "Since you don't like to eat chicken legs, then eat chicken wings. Chicken Wing Princess is not bad either."
Then he handed the chicken wings to Lu Yutong.
"Whoever says you don't like it, just eat it, just like it, I'll piss you off, piss you off..."
"Why don't you kill me?" Jiang Ning suddenly asked.
Lu Yutong's face also became solemn: "I thought about killing you before. You know too much. Keeping you may be useful. Now my life is given by me. Unless I want you to die, no one can kill you.
you."
"Oh, it looks like I can live for two more days..."
"At least I can survive to Hangzhou City..."
"By the way, what is this called?"
