"Cuckoo!"

This girl is so scary! Does she really want to eat us?

"Besides cooking food, what else can you do?" Lu Ke'er sneered, "You are not carrier pigeons, can you help deliver mail?"

While listening to her seemingly talking to herself, Bucktooth interrupted and said, "Girl, although they are wild pigeons, I heard that some wild pigeons can also be trained to be used as carrier pigeons."

"Really?" Lu Ke'er said calmly, "It's just a possibility."

She turned around and glared at the two little guys: "Then I will raise you for two days. If you can't be carrier pigeons, I will eat you!"

"Coo! Coo!" The two little pigeons raised their necks one after another and called out to Lu Ke'er, expressing their loyalty to their new master.

Master, rest assured, we will work hard to be an excellent homing pigeon.

Please don't eat us!

When a woman goes shopping, time always flies.

As the sun was setting and it was getting dark, Lu Keer finally decided to go home.

The three of them walked along the river for a while, and suddenly they saw a group of people gathered in front of them, blocking most of the road.

Lu Ke'er was not a person who liked to join in the fun. Seeing this, she was about to make a detour when she heard someone on the side of the road say, "Although this girl has a sallow complexion and ragged clothes, she is really pretty. She would be nice to buy back to warm the bed."

As soon as he finished speaking, some men laughed obscenely.

"It's okay to just buy this girl. But didn't you hear it? This girl said that I need her to cure her brother's illness first. Let's not talk about whether her brother's illness can be cured or not. Just looking at this buy one get one free and taking in her brother, this deal is not worth it."

Two men dressed as scholars were talking quietly beside him: "There are more and more refugees in Xilin County these days, and these two siblings are also miserable. They finally escaped here, but the younger brother fell ill."

"Prince Chen, aren't you afraid of being blamed by the current emperor for doing this?"

"Hush, keep your voice down. No matter how bad Prince Chen is, he is still the eldest son of the current emperor."

"It is no secret that Prince Chen is arrogant and domineering in his fiefdom, levying heavy taxes and levying heavy taxes without regard for the livelihood of the people. If Your Majesty does not use thunderous means to suppress him, I am afraid..."

"Your Majesty is old and frail. I heard that in the past two years, he has gradually handed over the affairs of state to the Crown Prince."

"It is said that the Crown Prince has been known as a child prodigy since he was young. He is very intelligent and has extraordinary strategies. However, the power in the court has long been lost to others and has always been controlled by the Duke of Zhenguo. Alas, it is difficult!"

The two men shook their heads and sighed, looking concerned about the country and the people.

Hearing this, Lu Ke'er lowered her eyes and thought deeply.

The emperor is old, his heir is young and weak, and a group of cunning people are eyeing the throne and power.

No matter how you look at it, this country is going to be in chaos for a while.

If you are not careful, there may be rivers of blood and the change of dynasties.

Oh, why didn't she travel back to a peaceful and prosperous era, but chose to travel back to such a chaotic era?

Is her dream of an idyllic life going to be shattered?

Just as I was daydreaming, I suddenly heard a scoundrelly voice: "Girl, your brother is dying. Don't worry about him anymore. Follow me home and I'll treat you to delicious food and drinks!"

Some people burst into laughter.

"Yes, yes, you won't lose out if you follow this Master Zhang!"

"Master Zhang is the steward of Mr. Jia, the richest man in our county. His family is very rich."

A female voice screamed from the crowd: "What are you doing? Don't touch me!"

"Oh my god! He actually used force? This guy is a piece of shit!" Gao Yutang's eyes rolled, and he raised his leg and rushed into the crowd.

Yu Qianjing's peach blossom eyes flashed: "Let's go and take a look."

Lu Ke'er sighed helplessly and had to follow.

Seeing injustice on the road and drawing swords to help, it turns out that the young men in ancient times also liked to do this.

But Lu Ke'er was a little worried because Gao Yutang had no martial arts skills and she was afraid that he would suffer a loss.

I don’t know if Yu Qianjing can fight.

Is it too late to run to the county government office to find Fang Zhengxing now?

The three of them squeezed into the crowd and saw a middle-aged man with a greasy face and a lewd look stretching out his fat hand to pull a girl of fifteen or sixteen years old.

The girl was tall and graceful. Her ragged clothes and pale face could not hide her good looks. She had an oval face, crescent-shaped eyebrows, a pretty nose, cherry lips, and a pair of watery eyes that seemed to contain thousands of words, making people feel pity.

At this moment, her pretty face was filled with anger as she tried hard to break free from the man's grip.

"Let me go! Let me go! How dare you seize a woman in broad daylight?"

The girl shouted angrily.

Lu Ke'er circulated the spiritual energy in her body and looked at the girl carefully. She saw that the girl was shrouded in a layer of light yellow-green mixed energy.

This was the first time she encountered these two colors of energy.

What does it mean?

She couldn't help but be curious.

Gao Yutang pulled a hand out from his sleeve and patted the man on the shoulder.

"Is there something wrong?" Butler Zhang turned around and asked Gao Yutang impatiently.

"I advise you to let this girl go immediately, otherwise..."

"Sir, I advise you to mind your own business." Butler Zhang said arrogantly, "My master is the brother of the wife of the Duke of Chenguo in Beijing. You can't afford to offend him!"

"Really?" A cold light flashed in Yu Qianjing's peach blossom eyes. "Does the Duke of Zhenguo know that his wife's foster brother is using his name to do evil in the village? The censor is worried that he can't find a chance to report him."

"You... who are you?" Butler Zhang saw that Yu Qianjing had an outstanding temperament, like a handsome jade tree, and thought that he must be from an extraordinary family, and he couldn't help but feel a little breathless.

I also remembered what the master said some time ago, that the wife of the Duke of Zhenguo in the capital wrote to mention that the Duke of Zhenguo now has many constraints in the court. Although the crown prince is young, he is very strategic, and gradually many ministers have turned to him. The Imperial Censor is a member of the crown prince's faction. He keeps an eye on the Duke of Zhenguo every day and immediately attacks him as soon as he makes a mistake.

The lady also warned the master to be patient for now, and to wait until the King of Chen is about to accomplish his great task before making it public.

"It doesn't matter who I am. What's important is that I have many close friends from prominent families in the capital." Yu Qianjing smiled slightly, with a strong threatening tone.

"Miss, I bought it!" Lu Ke'er suddenly said.

Butler Zhang, who had been thinking of quitting, was unwilling to give up after hearing this: "I was the one who fell in love with this girl first!"

Lu Ke'er ignored him and asked the girl, "Miss, do you want to go with me or with this ugly man?"

Ugly man?

Butler Zhang's shiny face twitched in anger. He glanced at Lu Ke'er's simple dress and asked contemptuously, "You paid more than I did?"

"The young lady will only follow someone who can cure her brother's illness. Can you cure this little brother?" Lu Ke'er asked, pointing at the boy lying on the ground dying next to the girl.

The boy was about one or two years younger than the girl. He was covered with a tattered piece of clothing that concealed most of his face.

"This kid is hopeless." Butler Zhang snorted coldly, "The two siblings have been here for two days. Yesterday, someone who wanted to buy her brought the best doctor in the county to see her brother's illness, and the doctor said that there was no cure."
