The Emperor is Above

Chapter 87 We all agree on Qing Yi (for readers who rewarded this book)

The Dongmen brothers worked for Chunyu family, and even their brother died tragically on the road. Instead, they were humiliated by Chunyu family, which made the onlookers very angry.

Qing Yi couldn't help but shook his head and smiled bitterly: "First, I would like to apologize to you two brothers. I am afraid that you have fallen into this situation because of my involvement."

Dongmen Hu was surprised and asked, "Why do you say that? Chunyu treated us harshly, why did you get implicated?"

Seeing the surprised expressions of the two brothers at the East Gate, Qing Yi said slowly: “A few days ago, due to the chaos outside the Central City Gate, Chunyu Yaqing asked the king to punish me in the court.

Not only did the king not follow his advice, but he also granted me the title of a corporal for my military merit in slaying the wild people of the Blood Wolf Tribe. I guess this incident angered Chunyu Yaqing.

Dongmen Hu and Dongmen Bao, you two brothers once worked together with me to fight against the Blood Wolf Tribe. I am afraid that this is what caused Chunyu clan to vent their anger on you. "

"The Chunyu family is so shameless!" Shi Dazhu raised his eyebrows slightly.

"When the Blood Wolf tribe attacked, the soldiers and civilians of Xing State naturally joined forces to fight the enemy. The Dongmen brothers also wanted to protect themselves. How could the Chunyu clan vent their anger on this?"

Dongmen Hu clenched his fists and said with a look of grief and anger: "Although my four brothers have low martial arts skills, we have served the Chunyu family for more than ten years.

Every time he went out with the caravan, he was always very careful and cautious, not daring to allow any accidents. This time, his two younger brothers even died in the wilderness for his family's caravan.

"Chun Yu Dao took his anger out on my brother because of a trumped-up charge. He tortured him inhumanely the day before yesterday and beat him almost to death, leaving him outside the city to fend for himself. I hate him so much!"

Dongmen Bao's angry eyes almost set the weeds on fire. He gnashed his teeth and said, "Brother, we brothers serve the Chunyu clan, but they don't treat us as human beings.

On the contrary, it was Corporal B who saved us twice. Why don’t we go to Corporal B? I hope he will not despise our brothers’ injuries and take us in.”

When the two brothers from Dongmen said this, they struggled together, leaned their whole bodies on the car, and made a great request.

Qing Yi did not immediately agree to their surrender. He hesitated for a moment before saying softly, "I rescued you this time without any intention of seeking repayment for the favor.

You brothers should take good care of your injuries first, and decide whether to become my retainers after your injuries have improved. What about your family members?"

"Where does my brother have any family?" Dongmen Hu, who had always been a strong man, burst into tears and said bitterly,

"For more than ten years, my four brothers have been dependent on each other. Last year, Dongmen Xiong and Dongmen Lang were chosen by the daughter of the neighbor next door, so they were able to marry.

This time, my two younger brothers unfortunately died. To avoid gossip, my two sisters-in-law had no choice but to return to their parents’ home, or they would have lost their lives.”

"Brother Gongsun is now the head of my family. You two brothers should come to my house to recuperate for a few days. If you are still willing to serve me, you can become my retainers."

After all, the Dongmen brothers are at the ninth-grade warrior level, and Qing Yi, who has just been granted the title of corporal, really needs such a soldier to guard his new fiefdom on his behalf.

Qing Yi felt a lot of pressure on whether to take in the Dongmen brothers. After all, this meant opposing the Chunyu clan. But the Chunyu clan was already the opposing party anyway, so it didn't matter whether he offended them or not.

We stayed overnight at the Bison Pavilion, and nothing unexpected happened. Not to mention the wild folks and thieves, even the nearby bison herds did not dare to approach.

The city guard camp not far away was extremely quiet. No one dared to run or speak loudly. They were all just obedient like a group of young wives.

On the contrary, Qing Yi's camp was particularly lively, with a warm bonfire burning. Da Niu and Chai Yong caught a few small alligators familiarly, skinned them, chopped their meat and put them into the pot.

Niu Niu, the little fox, and the civet cat competed in eating side by side, bringing some childlike fun to the camp.

After spending the night quietly, the team set out again early in the morning, taking advantage of the hard road surface to walk further in the early morning.

The next ninety miles of road were muddy and difficult to walk on, but fortunately the Dongmen brothers had recovered a lot from their injuries after a night of rest, so they were able to hold on.

······
At dusk, the convoy saw the dense locust trees in the locust hill from afar, especially the four huge dragon claw locust trees. At this time, smoke was rising from every household, and the team suddenly became restless.

"Brother Shigu, you've been out for a while, come home early, we'll talk about other things later." Qing Yi said goodbye to Tu Shigu, but the boys couldn't wait to cheer and run towards Huaiqiu. "We're back--"

"Go home—"

The other militiamen who stayed behind in Huaiqiuli had already seen the returning convoy from the corner tower, and soon hundreds of villagers also poured out of Huaiqiuli.

The wife calls her husband "her husband", the children call them "father and mother", and the surprise of reunion after a short separation fills the entire locust hill.

Several side carriages were filled with various commercial goods purchased from the capital, which made all the villagers gather around with envy. Cloth, fine salt, and children's favorite gadgets, every one of them seemed rare.

Qing Yi did not rush to get off the carriage, but stood at the shaft of the carriage, waved to the villagers and said with a smile: "This trip to the capital is safe thanks to the escort of all the uncles.

On the day we set out, we encountered a Blood Wolf Tribe junior totem warrior who was leading thirty barbarian thieves and attempted to ambush us."

"No way!"

"scare--"

The villagers present all exclaimed in surprise. Even though they knew that all the 20 militiamen and teenagers who had set out had returned, they were still worried about the situation.

Seeing the reactions of the villagers, Qing Yi continued with a smile, “However, with everyone working together, our team shot and killed the junior totem warrior and killed more than a dozen wild bandits.

However, when they were staying at the Bison Pavilion at night, the group of savage thieves from the Blood Wolf Tribe who had escaped actually attracted another Blood Wolf Tribe beastmaster.

This beastmaster is very powerful. He owns an eighth-grade exotic wild wolf, two ninth-grade exotic wild wolves, and a pack of up to forty wild wolves. "

"Oh my god, such a group of wild wolves is enough to destroy the corporal's territory!"

"If it's a sneak attack, I'm afraid even Sergeant Feng Tu will have a hard time resisting it!"

The villagers were first happy that Qing Yi shot the wild totem warrior, but then they were frightened by the danger that followed. They talked about it and were all worried about the situation at that time.

The old man stroked his white beard and said with relief on his face: "Fortunately, the Blood Wolf Tribe beastmaster and the totem warrior did not appear at the same time, otherwise it would be even more dangerous."

"The old man is so right!"

Qing Yi smiled and nodded at the old man. That sentence was exactly what Qing Yi wanted to express. He looked around at the increasing number of villagers and continued loudly,

"This group of Blood Wolf tribe barbarians are extremely powerful when they come together. Even Sergeant Feng Tu finds it difficult to resist them. Yet they split up into two groups to attack us, dispersing their strength.

But we in Huaiqiu were united, and we also met brothers Gongsun and Dongmen who came to our aid, so the Blood Wolf Tribe beastmaster, all the wild folks, thieves, and the wild wolf pack were all killed.”

"Oh, that's great—"

“The head of the village is really great!”

As the villagers cheered, the experienced old man looked thoughtful and finally understood Qing Yi's meaning.

He tapped the cane in his hand and said loudly: "When people are united, even mountains can be moved. No matter what happens in the future, we have all chosen Qing Yi."
