Chapter 59: Borrowing Food

No one expected Duke Ping to kill his own brother and replace him at such a difficult time for the Yan Kingdom.

Duke Ping and Qinghe's fief was adjacent to Huaiyang. After Duke Ping ascended the throne, he would definitely target the number one family in Qinghe and force his elder brother to lead the noble families in Qinghe to hand over all their food and money.

Even if they handed them over, Duke Ping would never give up a fat piece of meat like Qinghe.

Even Cui Shize could think of it on his way to the border, let alone Cui Shiji, who had been secretly observing the situation.

They must have been prepared. Perhaps they had already followed Cui Muzhi and the others when they set off.

Cui Shize frowned and said, "The flood will subside in two days at most. We still have horses and food in Jiangyuan City. Contact your uncle and we'll continue on our way with Muzhi." He looked at the hungry villagers who were walking weakly and said, "Besides, you can't bear to, right?"

Cui Lingyi said coldly, "So you want to bring someone else to the throne? What do you know about Duke Chu?"

Duke Chu could fight a war, but who knew what kind of dog emperor he would be when he sat on the throne.

Cui Shize did not hide anything from his daughter. "I'm about to find out."

Cui Lingyi knew that he had always had the dream of supporting a virtuous monarch to create a peaceful and prosperous world, but was that easy? How could Duke Chu use him, a prime minister whose disciples spread throughout the entire Yan Kingdom?

He would be afraid that he would instigate others to restore the dynasty of the Yan Kingdom. The possibility of killing him was higher than trusting in him.

Cui Lingyi said angrily, "You can go to Ling Kingdom to settle down and teach. You can send someone to seek refuge with Duke Chu, but you can't."

"Xiaoxiao, Dad isn't old yet." Cui Shize wanted to fight for himself.

Cui Lingyi glanced at his pitiful face. In the end, she could not bear to see him like this, so she took a step back. "Unless Duke Chu personally invites you back to the court, you definitely can't!"

"I didn't save you from the flood to send you to your death!"

Cui Lingyi showed an expression that said that there was no room for discussion. Cui Shize could only say, "Father promises you. Then will Xiaoxiao give these poor villagers a bowl of warm soup?"

Cui Lingyi gave him a cool look that said, "You don't have to kill the horse. Go borrow food yourself."

"..." Borrow food?

The used floating ring ropes were all tidied up. Cui Lingyi brought her father to the place where Bai Wutong and the others had built the shed.

Bai Wutong and the others were getting better at setting up camp. Depending on the terrain, they could quickly build sheds with different materials that could block the wind and rain.

Cui Lingyi's eyes flashed with envy when she saw Bai Wutong in front of a small shed grilling fish and eating.

To be able to eat, live, and drink in such an environment was simply the life of a god.

Seeing her arrive, Bai Wutong stood up and looked at Cui Shize's elegant face. She seemed to be looking at an amiable guard at the school gate.

Cui Lingyi introduced him. "This is my father. It's all thanks to your floating rings and ropes. Otherwise, I don't know what we could have done today. He specially came to thank you, so I brought him here."
