The Elegance of the Emperor: The Little Wife of the Wolf King

Chapter 141 Embarrassment
Murong Jing and Ye Luheng have been walking with the refugees going north for two days. During the two days, more than a dozen people basically ate nothing except drinking water. If boiled wild vegetables in clear water can be counted as meals, then they only ate once. .

Yu'er was so hungry that she couldn't straighten up, she couldn't even walk a step, Yeluheng carried him on her back, Murongjing followed beside her, and the guards behind were also listless.

Xiao Jinqi's army advanced too fast, it was really difficult for Yeluheng and his party to catch up with them.

The scorching sun scorched the earth, making people even more drowsy. Murong Jing raised her head to look at the dazzling sunlight, and only then did she understand the true meaning of "sunning". There is a tree to enjoy the shade, but in the endless wilderness, you can't even see a tree, so you can only be exposed to the sun and trek hard.

"Take a break!" Murong Jing finally couldn't move anymore, her legs seemed to be filled with lead, she wiped the sweat off her cheeks with her sleeve, and said weakly.

"Well, let's take a break!" Yeluheng saw Murong Jing's face was red but pale, and knew that she must not be able to walk anymore.

Yeluheng put Yu'er down, and everyone gathered around, it was already time to eat, even though there was nothing to eat, it was time for the occasion!
When the fire started, Murong Jing boiled some water first, and then went to the field with the guards to find some wild vegetables.

The wild vegetables on the side of the road were all dug up by the refugees, so Murong Jing had no choice but to walk a little further away with the guards.

"Rabbit, rabbit!" Suddenly a guard pointed to the grass in the distance and said.

When Murong Jing raised her eyes, she saw a rabbit grazing in the grass. From time to time, she raised her head to look around cleverly. Those two long ears were turning back and forth. Murong Jing liked it very much. How nice it is to live with this rabbit!

Murong Jing was swallowing her saliva, and the scene of rabbit meat stewing in a pot had already appeared in her mind.

"Don't move, take it easy!" Murong Jing was about to step forward, but was stopped by a personal guard, who waved her hand lightly.

It is not an easy task to catch a rabbit without a weapon in hand.

Yeluheng and Yu'er had already leaned forward, seven or eight people walked forward quietly, surrounded the rabbit, the circle gradually narrowed, everyone's eyes were shining, they held their breath and approached slowly.

Maybe because you haven't eaten for two days, Murong Jing didn't stand firmly on one of her feet, tripped over a stone, staggered and almost fell, she subconsciously said softly "Ah!", and supported the ground with one hand Did not fall.

Startled by Murong Jing's movement, the rabbit lowered its head and quickly jumped and fled in the grass.

Yeluheng glared at Murongjing, and shouted: "Hurry up, hurry up, grab it!" As he said that, he threw the stone that had been prepared in his hand, and when he missed it, Yeluheng patted himself on the head angrily. There was a curse in his mouth.

"Daddy, look at me!" The stone in Yu'er's hand also flew out, passed through the grass, and hit a guard's leg.

"Oops!" The guard exclaimed, his legs went limp, and he knelt on the ground with one leg, and the rabbit that was about to be caught slipped away from him.

"Stinky hand!" Yeluheng hit Yu'er on the back of the head, "Hurry up, hit the rabbit with a rock!" Yeluheng shouted anxiously as he watched the rabbit run farther and farther.

The guards all leaned over and picked up stones and threw them at the rabbit. Several stones just hit the rabbit. The rabbit was a little dizzy from being hit. It got up from the ground, turned around, and came back straight to the rabbit. Murong Jing ran towards him.

"Jing'er, Jing'er!" Ye Luheng shouted loudly, and ran towards Murong Jing.

Murong Jing was regretting that she had disturbed the rabbit, but the scene in front of her made her unbelievable: now the rabbit was running towards her, she stared at the rabbit, squatted down, and saw the rabbit walking beside her Yes, she lunged forward.

"Ah!" Murong Jing screamed, feeling a fluffy little thing fluttering and struggling in front of her chest, she reached out and grabbed the rabbit's ears from under her body, and lifted the rabbit out from under her body, lying on her stomach Looking at the rabbit in front of him on the ground, he screamed again in excitement.

Yeluheng and Yu'er had already run to her side and helped her up from the ground. Murongjing's whole body was dirty, and there were a few footprints on her face from the little rabbit's feet, but that pleasant smile made people look special. Comfortable.

"Ah Heng, Ah Heng, I caught the rabbit, I caught the rabbit! I really caught it!" Murong Jing exclaimed excitedly, louder and louder, and the guards surrounded him happily.

"Mother, that pounce of yours is really powerful, you actually just crushed the rabbit under your body! It's really amazing!" Yu'er looked at Murong Jing adoringly.

"That's right, I don't even look at who mother is!" Murong Jing became more and more complacent as she spoke, handing the rabbit to Yeluheng, boasting to Yu'er proudly.

"Who scared the rabbit away? If it wasn't for you, I would have knocked the rabbit unconscious with a stone!" Yeluheng rolled his eyes at Murongjing, what was he so proud of?Isn't it just pounced on a rabbit?

"Oh! I didn't do it on purpose! Didn't this catch the rabbit! Look at you!" Murong Jing yelled at Yeluheng, and then bouncingly pulled Yu'er to dig wild vegetables.

Yeluheng looked at the cheerful backs of the two women, looked down at the struggling rabbit, pointed to the rabbit's nose and said, "Rabbit, rabbit! If you run away today, I'm a bit lucky as a sweater." It's too much!"

The surrounding guards, hearing Yeluheng's conversation with the rabbit, couldn't help covering their mouths and laughing, turned around, and pretended to look down for wild vegetables.

"Let's go, kill the rabbit! Improve yourself at noon today!" Yeluheng shouted at the crowd, which immediately drew cheers from the surroundings.

In the pot made of a helmet, the rabbit has been put in, and the pot is simmering "gurgling", and the aroma has already wafted out. The greedy people gathered around the pot, staring at the meat in the pot without moving.

These soldiers who often march and fight have the habit of carrying salt with them. Murong Jing sprinkled a little salt into the pot, and a pot of delicious stewed rabbit made all the saliva flow out.

"Come on, put some wild vegetables!" Murong Jing put the washed leaves of wild vegetables into the pot, and there were some green leaves. The deliciousness in the pot made everyone swallow their saliva.

"Mother, are you ready?" Yu'er leaned over and was about to reach for the pot.

"Brat, be careful!" Murong Jing reached out and knocked Yu'er's hand off.

"Mother, I'll just have a taste, just one bite!" Yu'er smiled all over her face, looking at Murong Jing pitifully.

"Ma'am, let the young master have a taste!" The guard next to him said with a smile, patted Yu'er's head, and said pitifully.

Murong Jing looked at Yu'er's greedy face, and felt very sad. This child usually doesn't even want to eat the food in the imperial dining room, but now he looks so greedy when he sees a rabbit!
She used two small wooden sticks as chopsticks, and picked up a small piece of meat for Yu'er: "Here, eat!"

"Thank you, mother!" Yu'er happily took the piece of meat, and gnawed it, as if eating the most delicious delicacy in the world.

The smell of rabbit meat made the refugees who passed by greedy. A few homeless men wanted to come over, but Yeluheng had already prepared. Looking at the pot of delicious rabbit meat, he swallowed his saliva.

"Daddy, Daddy!" Suddenly there was a burst of crying not far away, Murong Jing got up and saw a child lying on the ground, pushing an adult who was lying on the ground.

"What's going on?" The child's cries were louder and louder, and people on the side of the road gathered around.

"Hey, no help!"

"Poor thing! Starved to death!"

"What about the rest of the child?"

……

The people who gathered around dispersed after a while, shaking their heads and muttering in low voices, and walked away.

"I'll go over and have a look!" Murong Jing looked through the crowd and saw the child lying on top of the adults crying like hell, none of these people reached out to help the child.

"Forget it! We still can't take care of ourselves!" Yeluheng reached out and grabbed Murongjing's sleeve.

Murong Jing glared at Ye Luheng, threw off Ye Luheng's big hand, and strode towards the child. Yu'er had already eaten the rabbit meat and was just waiting to cook for dinner. Seeing Murong Jing leave, she also joined in the fun follow up.

When the crowd saw the father and daughter lying on the road, they walked around, shaking their heads as they walked.

"Son, don't cry!" Murong Jing knelt down and helped the crying child lying on his father's body.

"Auntie, what's wrong with my dad?" The child's dirty face was covered with tears and snot, and Murong Jing took out a handkerchief to wipe off the child's tears, revealing the child's fair cheeks.

"Good boy, your father has already gone to a place where there is no pain!" Murong Jing looked at the man lying upright on the ground with a beard and neat clothes.

Yu'er stepped forward to sniff, listened to her chest, and shook her head towards Murong.

Murong Jing waved to Yeluheng and the others, two bodyguards came over and dragged the body to the grass beside the road.

Murong Jing led the children to their resting place. The guards brought some water back, Murong Jing washed the child, and a white and clean little girl stood in front of everyone.

"Auntie, my name is Xiaobing, and I'm the only daughter in my family. My mother died, and my father said that he would take me to seek refuge with relatives!" As she spoke, tears flowed down again, and the little girl looked at the girl lying in the grass not far away. His father suddenly knelt down in front of Murong Jing.

"Hey, Xiaobing, get up quickly, what are you doing?" Murong Jing rushed to help Xiaobing, but Xiaobing just couldn't get up on her knees.

"Little girl, do you have something to say to Madam?" A guard next to him knelt down and asked Xiaobing, Xiaobing nodded, "Tell me, Madam is kind and will help you!" Xiaobing's head said.

"Madam, Xiaobing begs Madam to bury father. From now on, Xiaobing will be an ox and a horse for Madam, and serve Madam for the rest of her life!" Xiaobing kowtowed and never got up again.

Yeluheng had a dark face, and couldn't help frowning when he saw the situation.

"Get up, good boy! Madame is not capable of burying your father now, but that uncle can help you bury him!" Murong Jing pointed to Yeluheng who was standing aside.

Xiaobing cleverly crawled over on her knees, kept kowtowing to Yeluheng, and said, "Uncle, please, help Xiaobing!"

Seeing the smile in Murongjing's eyes, Yeluheng lifted Xiaobing up in his heart and said, "Stop kowtowing, after dinner, I'll have someone help you bury my father!"

"Thank you uncle, thank you uncle!" Xiaobing knelt down and kowtowed obediently.

"I won't let you kowtow, so don't kowtow, don't you feel tired?" Seeing Xiaobing kowtow again, Yu'er couldn't help frowning and said impatiently.

"Not tired, you are Xiaobing's great benefactors, Xiaobing should kowtow all the time!" Xiaobing raised his fair face, his big bright eyes flickering.

"Come and eat!" Murong Jing yelled, and everyone gathered around. Each of them didn't have more than two or three pieces of meat, which wasn't enough for a toothbrush, but they ate with gusto, and they didn't even want to throw away their bones. Put all the clean ones back, let the next meal boil some bone soup, dip some meat, even the wild vegetable soup is much more delicious.

"Come on, have some soup!" Murong Jing added half a bowl of broth to everyone, and everyone who had been hungry for two days ate the broth in small mouthfuls, and finally even the bowls were licked clean.

Yu'er had already drank all of her share, watching Xiaobing drink it in small sips, her eyes almost fell into Xiaobing's bowl.

"Little brother, do you still want to drink?" There was still some left in Xiaobing's bowl, she looked up and saw Yu'er's sneaky eyes and said.

"Don't drink, don't drink, I'm full!" Yu'er patted her head shyly and said, patting her flat stomach.

"But, I can't drink it! Brother, can you help me drink it?" Xiaobing's delicate voice sounded.

"Really?" Yu'er looked at Xiaobing in disbelief, is there anyone who can't finish the broth?
"Well, help me drink it!" Xiaobing licked her lips, swallowed a few mouthfuls of saliva and said.

"You begged me!" Yu'er asked again with certainty.

"Well, here it is!" Xiaobing brought her bowl to Yu'er.

Yu'er was not polite at all, she drank all the soup left in the bowl in one gulp, licked her lips after drinking, and said, "I'll finish your drink for you! Here's your bowl!" Yu'er handed the empty bowl to Xiao ice.

Xiaobing obediently took the bowl away, walked to Murong Jing's side, and helped Murong Jing tidy up the dishes.Murong Jing originally brought a little maid with her when she came out this time, but the little maid fell ill as soon as she reached the border of Quanrong, so she had to let the little maid stay in Yeluheng's big camp to recuperate.

Xiao Jinqi originally planned to buy two more maids for Murong Jing, but Murong Jing thought it was inconvenient to have unfamiliar people around, and she didn't need others to take care of her all the time, so she took care of herself along the way , no one to serve.

Xiaobing came to help Murong Jing clean up the dishes, which made Murong Jing feel more fond of Xiaobing!
