When Advisor Jun received the news, he was dumbfounded.

“Why didn’t you come over earlier?

The military doctors were so frightened by the military advisor that they didn’t dare to raise their heads.

In the end, it was Old Liu who spoke, “The generals are only free today. We haven’t even had the chance to speak before Princess Ming Yue left.”

“He is going to chase Princess Ming Yue and beg her to come back. I wonder if he can make it in time…

He and Gu Ying had a little disagreement. That was between men, but they still knew what was important in the big picture.

He was a military advisor who could yield and stand up for himself. He was the best at this. So what if he knelt down and admitted his mistake to Princess Ming Yue?

However, after learning that MO Ruyue had already left, he had no choice but to hope that the memorial that the Great General had given the Emperor would allow Princess Ming Yue to return. At that time, he would just apologize to Princess Ming Yue.

MO Ruyue and the four servants walked to the village on the edge of the road. When the villagers saw that someone had returned, they all came out to look at him.

The two thousand guards who came to protect MO Ruyue had been ordered to stay in the barracks by the Emperor.

She looked at the thin faces that were pale from hunger and stopped in her tracks.

It was true that there was a war going on here, but the food in the camp wasn’t that bad. Although their rations were transported from all directions, it was a little too much for the villages here to be so miserable.

There were many mountains in Xi Liang. Even if this was the border, there were mountains behind the village.

Didn’t they say that relying on the mountain to survive, did these people not understand?

Or could it be that half of the year here was winter, and there was nothing to eat on the mountain?

“Wei Yi, go up the mountain and see if there are any prey.”

“We’re going to find the village chief now. When you come back, go straight to the village chief’s house.”

“Yes. ”

Wei Yi nodded and gave Wei Er a look. Wei Er nodded and he left.

“I think there should be.”

He remembered that when he had just arrived, Gu Ying had gone to get a robe.

Even if he had gone out to buy it, he had hunted it from the mountains. Therefore, there must be prey on the nearby mountains.

MO Ruyue and the others found out that this village was called Snow World Village after they found the village chiefs house.

As the name suggested, it was a village guarding the border. The people in the village were all military households.

MO Ruyue asked the village chief about the family situation.

The old village chief did not know that MO Ruyue was a princess, but he knew that she had a powerful backer in the military camp. It was impossible for her to be alone in the military camp since she had stayed in the military camp for so many days.

“There are prey on those mountains, but this is not a military village. The border is so long that almost everyone has to rely on these mountains to survive. Gradually, there are fewer prey, especially in winter.”

“Please have some tea.”

“It’s crude tea, please don’t dislike it.”

“In this cold winter, drinking something hot could also warm one’s body.”

The old village chief’s wife came out with a pot of hot tea. MO Ruyue looked at her skinny hands, which were thinner than chicken feet, and hurriedly took the cup of hot tea with both hands.

“Thank you, Auntie.”

MO Ruyue took a sip of the tea. The tea was bitter, but it was still warm after drinking it.

Wei Yi returned at this time.

“Duke.”

“Just say it.”

Wei Yi was interrupted by MO Ruyue before he could finish his sentence. Wei Yi understood what MO Ruyue meant. She did not want these people to know his identity.

“I went to the nearest mountain and did not find any prey. There might be more if we go deeper, but it’s dangerous.”

Wei Yi said concisely.

“That’s right. There are big insects in the deep mountains. How would we dare to go there?”

The old village chief sighed.

MO Ruyue put down her cup. “I’ll go take a look.”

Wei Yi followed MO Ruyue back up the mountain while Wei Er and Chun Hua stayed behind to look after the things. They were also prepared to temporarily stay at the village chief’s house.

It was getting dark. It was too cold here, and it was not suitable to travel at night.

“Please be careful!”

The old village chief was worried that something would happen to MO Ruyue here and she would be in deep trouble. “Grandpa, don’t worry. My princess is very powerful.”

“Can I borrow your kitchen for a while?”

As Chun Hua spoke, she took out a small piece of silver and stuffed it into the old village chief’s hand. Before she could say anything, the old village chief hurriedly waved his hand and retreated.

“Young Lady, you can’t do it. You just want to use the kitchen, why would you need to give this silver?

“You don’t have to give it to me. You can use the kitchen if you want. It doesn’t matter.”

Chun Hua smiled as she handed the piece of silver to the old village chief.

“Village chief, we want to stay in this village tonight. Can you spare two rooms for us?

“It doesn’t have to be good, as long as it’s clean. If it really doesn’t work, I can clean it myself. I can’t trouble you too much. If we go to an inn, we’ll spend more money than this.”

“If you don’t accept any of it, we’ll be embarrassed to stay here. It’s getting dark and it’s not safe for us to travel in the middle of the night. Village Chief, please make it convenient for us.”

When the old village chief heard Chun Hua’s words, he felt that her words were very reasonable. However, if he really wanted to accept the silver, he would feel embarrassed. His old wife pulled him from the side and the old village chief shamelessly accepted the broken silver.

“Then this old man will be thick-skinned. Just you wait. We will go and clean up two rooms.”

In this village, only the village head’s house had extra rooms, and it was the best in the village. Even so, this place was very simple.

After deciding to stay at the village chief’s house tonight, Wei Er brought the horse and carriage into the village chief’s courtyard while Chun Hua prepared dinner in the kitchen.

Wei Er packed up the carriage and came over to help Chun Hua. He also paid attention to the situation in the yard.

When Chun Hua’s dishes were ready, the fragrance wafted through the entire village. Coincidentally, MO Ruyue and Wei Yi came down from the mountain at this time.

Wei Er noticed them before they even entered the courtyard. He heard their heavy footsteps as they walked out to welcome them. Good heavens, Wei Yi was carrying a colorful adult tiger on her shoulder, and their princess was also carrying a roe deer. She also had a few wild rabbits in her hands.

Wei Er quickly took all the prey from MO Ruyue’s hands. He felt that they did not have enough hands. Otherwise, they would have carried more.

After entering the courtyard, the old village chief and his wife also came out to welcome him. They were shocked to see Wei Er carrying the roe deer and the hare in his hand!

Where did they get this?

Before he could recover from his shock, he saw Wei Yi enter the courtyard. His eyes widened and he almost lost his soul. He was too old to be scared!

These people were too fierce!

If he wasn’t mistaken, that was a big insect, right?!

The few of them entered the courtyard and directly piled all the prey in the middle of the courtyard.

Chun Hua quickly fetched two basins of hot water for MO Ruyue and Wei Yi to wash up.

“This, this, this, this, this, that, that, that, that…

The old village chief wanted to say something, but he could not say a complete sentence.

“We’ve taken care of the big insects on the mountain. In the future, you can let the villagers team up to hunt on the mountain. As long as they don’t encounter wolves or wild boars, there shouldn’t be any problems.”

“Tomorrow morning, come up the mountain with me.”

The old village chief could only nod after hearing MO Ruyue’s words. There were no more questions.. What could he ask? So what if he didn’t know how to ask?
