Chapter 674
"I don't care, but you and I are different after all! I don't normally go hungry, but you can't. "
The nine-tailed fox patted Ye Fei's shoulder as he spoke.
Ye Fei nodded, he now felt that the task was not so anxious, after all, the peony and the little peach were very stable and did not encounter any dangerous situations.
Moreover, I just asked the local villagers about the direction of the capital, including the situation in the capital.
"Okay, then the two of us will stay here, it's really a trouble for you."
Ye Fei said to the village chief with a smile, and the village chief's eyes widened when he heard this. patted Ye Fei's shoulder and said, "You young man don't have to be so unrealistic, let me tell you, our Zhuang family is honest!" Don't bother us, it's rare for someone to come! By the way, tell me what you want to eat. We have a good life now, we have money, meat, vegetables and food! "
"Hahaha, isn't this restrained, since the village chief said so, then I have to order! I really want to eat braised pork now, and I also want to eat leek boxes. And I want to eat dumplings! "
Ye Fei ordered a few more home-cooked dishes, and he didn't want to trouble the village chief and the others too much.
In fact, braised pork, dumplings, and leek boxes are quite troublesome to make, but the village chief is particularly enthusiastic.
"Hahaha, no problem, these little things. And like you, I especially like to eat braised pork, which our family eats every day. "
The village chief, the nine-tailed fox, and Ye Fei spoke, and walked into their house with a smile.
The village chief's house is not small, it looks quite rich, and it is a big courtyard. It's still the second entry! Two or three large rooms, with two separate wings on the left and right.
"Village chief, your family is really magnificent, I can't tell that it is in the village at all."
The nine-tailed fox spoke.
He was right, the house in front of him now looked extraordinarily upscale in the whole village. In fact, the other houses don't look bad, but compared to the village chief's house, it's really worse.
"That's right, this is not in our village, the road has been opened with Gaoshan County next to it, and Gaoshan County can directly lead to the capital, and some things in our village can be directly pulled to the county to sell.
The things sold there are more expensive, so I have more money, but the rest of us in the village started late.
So, their house hasn't been done properly yet, waiting for another two years. Their house is bigger than mine. "
The village chief said with a smile, after he said this, Ye Fei and the nine-tailed fox glanced at each other. That's good news!
"Great, this place shouldn't be too far from Gaoshan County, so if we say that, we will finally arrive in the capital soon."
Ye Fei muttered to himself.
"That's not it, it's only a dozen miles from here to Gaoshan County, and besides, from Gaoshan County to the capital, it's about forty or fifty miles, which is quite close. If you ride in a horse-drawn carriage or ride an ox-cart... It doesn't take a day to arrive. "
Unexpectedly, Ye Fei's self-talk was actually heard by the village chief, and the enthusiastic village chief hurriedly spoke.
The three of them entered the room as they spoke, and the room looked extremely bright and clean.
The walls were whitewashed, the floor was made of smooth stone, and the tables, chairs, and benches in the room were all new.
"Wife, you're here, go get some braised pork, dumplings, leek boxes or something. Give them a taste of your craft! "
The village chief sat on a chair and shouted loudly into the house.
After a while, a middle-aged woman who looked very kind came out of the house, and this middle-aged woman greeted Ye Fei and the nine-tailed fox with a smile, and then went to cook.
"Village chief, I want to ask you, do you know any new trends in the current emperor, including the imperial court?"
The nine-tailed fox asked as he drank the tea in the bowl.
The village chief thought for a while, and then said: "I think there seems to be no movement in the imperial court recently, it looks very calm, and now that the world is peaceful, the emperor is simply ruling by the arch!" I heard that the emperor has disappeared for three months and has not been in court, but the whole world is still very stable. Do you think it's good? "
When they heard this, Ye Fei and the nine-tailed fox glanced at each other, is this okay? It's obvious that something is wrong. There must be something wrong with an emperor who has disappeared for three months, and his subjects don't even care about him.
And there is no news in the palace that the emperor is extravagant, which means that the emperor is likely to be imprisoned.
"So village chief, has there been any news from the harem in the capital, or some strange rumors?"
Ye Fei said in a low voice.
"Well, there really is. I heard that Concubine Xi of the harem united with the daughter of King Chuping and the daughter of King Taiping to murder the queen. "
