I will lead the whole village to occupy the land and become the king.

Wang Bo smiled and bowed, "It's me, Uncle Village Chief. I didn't expect you to recognize me."

He was only fifteen years old at the time, and after six years of training in the army, his appearance no longer resembled his former self.

"Is it really you?" Village Chief Li looked at him in surprise. "Why are you back? Is there no fighting at the border anymore?"

At that time, Wang Bo and others were conscripted, and the government did not tell the people of Dingshui Village where they were assigned to. It was not until Wang Bo later sent back a message that Village Chief Li and others found out.

But there was no way for the village to send messages to the army, so there was no news about other people in the village.

Wang Bo's smile froze when he heard the question, but it was fleeting. He quickly said with deep sorrow, "The Dayuan Kingdom is still bent on destroying the Great Yue Kingdom, so the war is still going on. However, I was injured and sent back to my country of origin."

Dai Viet is now facing internal and external troubles, and has been fighting with Dayuan for more than ten years without a clear winner.

Village Chief Li nodded in understanding, "So that's how it is. Then why did you return to the village with your parents?"

"My parents and I met them on their way to Qiongzhou Prefecture. I share the same opinion as the village chief uncle that it is not suitable for us to escape famine now." Wang Bo said seriously.

He knew more than the people in Dingshui Village. When he met Wang Po and her group, he persuaded them to come back.

But when he came back, he found that Dingshui Village had changed. They had implemented a work point system, and now the whole village had to work together. They had to use work points to exchange for silver and food in the village.

When Wang Po heard about this at first, she thought the villagers were stupid and didn't want to live with everyone else, but Wang Bo asked her to find the village chief and ask them to join.

Mrs. Wang has great faith in her eldest son, Wang Bo. She is the only one in her family who has a promising future. At that time, he was the most promising person in the village except for Lu Yanzheng.

So there is the present scene.

"Haha, that's true. We can still make a living if we stay." Village Chief Li couldn't help laughing when he thought of their discovery in the mountains.

What is even more surprising is that the soil in the fields has inexplicably become moist in the past few days. Several farmers in the village feel that there will be no problem with autumn planting this year.

"Uncle village chief, we all live in the same village, so why don't you let our families live with you?" Wang Bo said solemnly.

If it was Wang Po who said this, Village Chief Li would not want to pay attention, but Wang Bo is different. This child is capable of doing great things.

Village Chief Li hesitated. "I can't make the decision on this matter myself. Why don't you wait until A Zheng's wife and the others come back?"

"A Zheng's wife?" Wang Bo was slightly stunned. "Who is that?"

"She is just Lu Yanzheng's wife, a young widow. She is always showing off in the village. How can she behave like a woman?" said Mrs. Wang quickly.

"Lu Yanzheng?" Wang Bo paused, vaguely remembering that the day they were captured and sent into exile was the day Lu Yanzheng got married.

Mrs. Wang curled her lips and asked, "If not him, who else could it be?"

"It's him. Come to think of it, weren't you taken away together? Xiaobo, have you ever seen A Zheng in the army?" Village Chief Li asked casually.

After asking, he realized, yes, the Lu family has not had any news of Lu Yanzheng for so many years. Now that someone has returned from the army, wouldn’t we know by asking?

At this moment, the person in charge of guarding the lookout tower ran over breathlessly and excitedly, "Village Chief, Lao Meng and the others are back!"

Upon hearing this, Village Chief Li immediately forgot about asking about Lu Yanzheng and ran away, "Where is he? Come on, let's go check it out!"

No one in Dingshui Village cared about Wang Pozi and her family anymore, and they all rushed to the village entrance.

Jiang Qinyu and her group had been gone for almost ten days, and the villagers had been looking forward to their return every day, and only at this moment did they finally breathe a sigh of relief.

After all, it was hundreds of miles away, and they had never been to the capital before. Who knew what they might encounter? Now that they were able to return safely, they were really thankful!

"Old Meng, niece...you are finally back!" Village chief Li ran so hard that his shoes almost fell off. The moment he saw Meng Tianze, Jiang Qinyu and others, he almost burst into tears.

Jiang Qinyu jumped off the mule cart and greeted Village Chief Li and the others with a smile. Then she said to Village Chief Li, "Uncle Village Chief, we have lived up to everyone's expectations this time and have done everything we needed to do!"

"Okay, okay, I know you can do it. Is everyone okay? Did you encounter any danger on the road?" Village chief Li looked at the seventeen people who went out one by one, tears gathering in his eyes.

Meng Tianze laughed heartily, "It was a bit troublesome, but we solved it. Look, Village Chief, we used five horse-drawn carriages to exchange for twelve mule-drawn carts for the village. It wasn't a loss, was it?"

Village Chief Li then remembered that they had driven out in a horse-drawn carriage, but before him were a row of mule-drawn carts. He hurriedly asked, "What's going on?"

Although the mule was very nice, he felt uneasy in his heart and always felt that something had happened to them.

Meng Tianze hooked his shoulder and said, "It's nothing serious. Thanks to my sister-in-law, this is what happened..."

He picked out the important things and told Village Chief Li about what happened on the road, with a smile on his face all the time.

"What? You met the Qinggang Mountain boss who escaped at that time?" Village chief Li was worried when he heard this.

Meng Tianze nodded, "My sister-in-law said it must have been attracted by those horses, so we took a detour to Litian County..."

"Oh, Uncle Meng, what you said is really boring, let me tell the story!" Chen Shao suddenly jumped out from behind and described the ups and downs of what they had done in Litian County.

The people in Dingshui Village were stunned when they heard what Chen Shao said. After he finished speaking, everyone started talking.

"Oh my God, you guys are really going out this time, tsk tsk..."

"Luckily, A Zheng's wife is smart, otherwise why would the gatekeeper remind you?"

"That's right. If Erleng were to lead the team, he wouldn't be willing to give a single coin to treat the gatekeeper to tea..."

Everyone talked for a while. Jiang Qinyu thought of the tire tracks she saw on the road and quickly asked, "Uncle Village Chief, are there any visitors from our village?"

"Oh yes, village chief, we saw tire tracks on the road and thought someone might have come to our village, so we hurried back. Who was it?" Meng Tianze also patted his head and asked.

When they asked, Village Chief Li remembered Wang Bo and hurriedly said to Jiang Qinyu, "Niece, Wang Bo from Mrs. Wang's family is back. Go find him and ask about A Zheng's situation!"

Jiang Qinyu was stunned. She searched her memory for a long time before she knew who Wang Bo was. Then she immediately thought of Lu Yanzheng.

Wang Bo has returned. Is Lu Yanzheng in the same military camp with him? Or...

"Village chief, Mrs. Lu," Wang Bo arrived in front of them while Jiang Qinyu was silent. He looked at Jiang Qinyu with sympathy and said, "Brother Zheng and I were in the same military camp. He died on the battlefield not long after arriving at the camp..."
