The whole family traveled through ancient times with their house

Chapter 197 Someone from the capital is coming

In the following days, Ye Zhan dug soil for Li Mo and the others a few more times, and soon there was an acre of land there.

I already have one acre of land, so how far away can two acres be?

...

General Ye had been feeling uneasy for the past two days. He went to his youngest son's house after dark. After speaking with his son and his wife, Jiang Yan suggested that the old man take his family to hide on the cliff.

The old general also listened to the advice. After returning, he took the women and young children in his family to the hiding place overnight, leaving only Silang at home to look after the house.

Qilang, Balang, and Jiulang were all here for the first time. They were eager to try it, but no one asked. They just did whatever their grandfather told them to do.

Jiang Yan and Ye Zhan had not slept at all. After the Ye family members entered the hiding place, Jiang Yan activated her wood-related abilities. The weeds that had been trampled down stood up instantly, and there was no trace of anyone walking there.

Before daybreak, two war horses rushed into the Xishan Hundred Households Office at lightning speed.

Ye Zhanyang, who had just woken up and was getting dressed, heard the sound, put on his clothes and rushed to the yard.

In the dim light, when he saw clearly that the people coming were Captain Dong and Scholar Guo, he was stunned. "Captain Dong, what are you doing?"

"Old Ye, go back quickly and hide with your family first."

"What happened?"

"General Ming's men received news last night that Empress Dowager Bian's nephew had somehow taken a fancy to our Black Stone City. No one knew where he got the reward... but he actually came to our Black Stone City to be a military supervisor." Captain Dong had to use a lot of effort to swallow back the word "idiot".

"Damn it." Ye Zhanpeng, who had just put on his clothes, would have wanted to call the emperor an idiot if he didn't remember where he was.

Ye Zhanyang's expression remained unchanged. He then asked Captain Dong, "What does General Ming mean?"

"General Ming's intention is to have you hide first. This includes the entire Thirteen Banners!"

"Why is there still a matter about the Thirteen Banners?"

"The Thirteen Banners are our last trump card."

The Ye brothers didn't understand what he meant at first, but then they heard Captain Dong's explanation: "When that nephew of Empress Dowager Bian comes, I don't know how he'll plunder us. But as long as the Thirteen Banners aren't plundered by him, we can at least have porridge to drink."

The Ye brothers: Do they want to praise General Ming for his wisdom...bullshit.

"Then let's go back to the Thirteenth Banner now, brothers."

"Well, now the scholar will carry the Xishan Hundred Households Office for a few days." Captain Dong really didn't dare to let others carry it, for fear that the person would let the cat out of the bag.

As for the scholar, I hope he can use his ability to deceive ghosts so that they can get through safely.

After seeing off Ye Zhanyang and his three brothers, Captain Dong started to grumble to Scholar Guo, "If it doesn't work, just dig the road outside the Thirteen Banners Pass."

"No way!"

"Let's take precautions."

"That dude wouldn't run that far."

"What if that bastard has a seizure someday? We have to be on guard."

"Yes. I'll take people to dig after breakfast."

While having breakfast, the officers and soldiers of the Xishan Hundred Households also learned about this matter, and they were all very angry.

Although Captain Ye has not been here for long, he is very skilled in martial arts.

There are also three brothers who are invincible on the battlefield.

The officers and soldiers of the Xishan Hundred Households' Office felt a little depressed when they thought that they would not see Hundred Household Ye and his men for a long time.

"Okay, everyone, don't worry. As long as that stupid dog returns to the capital, Captain Ye and the others will come back."

Captain Dong comforted everyone before having breakfast with them. After breakfast, Captain Dong returned to his headquarters. The officers and soldiers of the Xishan Hundred Households, led by Scholar Guo, went to dig trenches at the Thirteenth Banner.

Ye Zhanyang and his two brothers returned to their home in the Thirteenth Banner. They learned from Silang that their old father had taken people to the hiding place last night.

I was thinking to myself that my father's ability to predict danger was quite accurate.

It was only after Guo Xiucai and the others arrived that Zhang Xiaoqi realized that another fool was coming to the capital.

"Alas, our Black Rock City is already in trouble enough, why are those non-humans still unwilling to let us go?"

"Old Zhang, I guess those people in the capital are most likely coming for our three cannons."

"Are you interested in our artillery? No way, we can't play with that."

"I told the boss that those people were interested in our artillery, but he didn't believe me."

"Old Guo, what makes you think that people in the capital would be interested in our artillery?"

"Old Zhang, think about it, what is there in the capital?"

“We have everything.”

"There's just no artillery."

"So, those bastards wanted to take the artillery back to the capital to play with it?"

"I guess that's the case. Otherwise, why would that dude come to Blackrock City?"

"No, those idiots, don't you understand? We have artillery, so the northern barbarians dare not act rashly. If they take the artillery away, the northern barbarians will march south again."

"How could those grown men understand our suffering?"

"No, what do they need artillery for? Is it to protect that old… ahhhh, I'm so pissed off."

At nightfall, the old general returned with his eldest grandson. He learned from his three sons that Empress Dowager Bian's nephew had actually come to Blackrock City to serve as a military supervisor. He sneered, "I suspect they're coming for our Ye family."

"This means they won't stop until the Ye family is wiped out."

"Then come on, the Bian family won't think that we have not only thought of a way out, but also a way out."

After the father and sons conspired, General Ye asked his three sons to go to the family's hiding place first, and he went to the youngest son's house.

When Jiang Yan and Ye Zhan heard that the Bian family was still rushing into danger, they both shed tears of sympathy for the Emperor of Great Zhou.

During the day, they learned about the plans of General Ming and Captain Dong from Zhang Xiaoqi.

The two of them also told the old general about this. Ye Zhan also gave his father some advice: "Dad, let your three brothers and their wives stay on the other side of the cliff. You can stay at home with your sons."

Ye Zhan was also afraid of any accidents, so he bought five more pistols for Dalang and the others.

The old general didn't expect that his son and his wife would equip his five nephews with this good thing, so he went back excitedly.

After seeing the old general off, Ye Zhan locked the door and went back to the house to talk to his wife in private.

"Wife, do you think my father has murderous intentions?"

"Anyone who doesn't have the intention to kill is a fool. To be honest, if it were me, I would have already stormed the capital and hung that fat woman from the Bian family on the city wall for everyone to see."

"Well, the Ye family is really patient."

"In this era, blind loyalty is paramount. Haven't you seen what's written in that novel? The imperial decree came down, and the entire family was killed, and look at those ministers, they still knelt and shouted: Thank you, Lord, for your grace!"
