Chapter 166 Yehebao

Wuyue frowned inwardly. It turned out that what this family was feeding Qing'er and me were actually dog bones!

Xiao Fang returned quickly, bringing him two meat bones again, but these were cooked, with

more meat, and placed on two separate wooden plates. According to Xiao Fang, he had pleaded with the chef in the kitchen

to finally secure this slightly more human-like treatment for the two of them.

He grabbed one and started gnawing. After all, this was the first time he had eaten cooked food in five or six days. Although it had no saltiness at

all , he still ate it with relish, finding the original flavor quite good! He then

remembered eating with his wife in the mansion before. Although the meat was tender, it was still boiled in plain water with

some salt Why didn't it taste this good then? She also ate with her hands, or with a small knife and silver spoon,

not used to chopsticks. He had always been puzzled by this, but now he realized that everyone in her hometown ate like this.

Seeing the dirty little girl drooling as she watched Wuyue eat, yet refusing to pick up a bone to gnaw on, Xiao Fang asked,

"Little sister, why aren't you eating?"

Qing'er shook her head, saying, "I'll wait for you to eat first, young master."

Xiao Fang picked up the other wooden plate and held it out to her, kindly advising, "Why bother? Eat it while it's hot!"

Qing'er took the plate and placed it in front of Wuyue, causing Xiao Fang to frown.

Wuyue turned her head and said, "Brother Fang, don't mind her. This girl is young, but she's as stubborn as a mule!" A mischievous thought

arose within him, and he picked up the wooden bowl, bringing the steaming, fragrant meat bones close to her nose, gnawing loudly

.

She hadn't had a hot meal in a long time, and the aroma of the steaming meat bones made her swallow

hard . Wu Yue was secretly delighted. Now was the perfect

opportunity to entice her to break her rule for the first time and correct some of her bad habits. Once she did it once, he could slowly work her way up one by one...

Such a huge temptation was hard for a child like her to resist, yet she resisted and

pushed the wooden basin back in front of him.

He couldn't sit still any longer and said angrily, "You brat, don't think I have to leave you

food . If you don't eat, believe me, I'll gnaw these two bones clean! You won't get anything to eat tonight!"

The child said innocently, "Young master should eat more to grow strong. There's no need to leave any for me."

He was at a loss. He had already engaged in thirty rounds of wits and courage with this girl along the way, and the result was

thirty to zero. He was completely defeated!

He was furious! He quickly finished the meat bone in his hand, turned to chat with Xiao Fang, and refused

to look at her again. Of course, he still wanted to leave the other meat bone for her. Such a pitiful child,

although her stubbornness angered him, how could he bear to let her go hungry?

Seeing that the young master had finished eating and started talking to Xiao Fang, Qing'er picked up the remaining meat bone and wolfed it down

. In no time, she had finished it clean, leaving not even a scrap of meat in the crevices of the bone. After that, she

picked up the bone that Wu Yue had left behind, picked out the remaining meat from the crevices of the bone with her fingernails and

ate it. Then she took a round log, cracked the bone, extracted the marrow, and fed it to him, saying, "Young master, this is the most nutritious."

Wu Yue was dumbfounded. This girl really had the ability to deal with leftover bones, almost like a dog chewing

the bone into pieces and swallowing it! Her black hands made the bone dirty, and the marrow was naturally not clean either.

However, seeing her filial piety, he still ate the marrow, and his anger gradually subsided.

Through casual conversation, he learned that Xiao Fang was a ginseng gatherer who had come to the border region with his parents, but they had been captured

and enslaved by the Yehe tribe's nobles. His parents herded cattle and pigs for their master, while he stayed in the courtyard to do odd jobs.

He also told Wuyue that the master of this noble family was named Kurdin, and the woman who had brought Wuyue back was

his sister, Yehe Yadai. She was renowned for her beauty from a young age,

and . Moreover, according to the tribal shaman, she was destined for greatness and had an extraordinary background.

Over the years, nobles who admired her beauty had come to propose marriage in droves, but she

had extremely high standards and didn't find a suitable husband among them.

Seeing that the other party was indeed from the Yehe tribe of the Jurchens, Wuyue hurriedly begged Xiao Fang

to explain , hoping that she would send her to

Acheng out of consideration for her kinship with Princess Murong.

Xiao Fang was quite enthusiastic towards his fellow villager. On the afternoon of the third day, as Yehe Yadai returned from a hunting trip, he knelt

before her mount to stop her and relayed Wu Yue's words.

However, to his surprise, Yehe Yadai flew into a rage upon hearing this and immediately ordered, "Lock those two

savages up properly and make them slaves for life, never to be redeemed!"

Her anger stemmed from the fact that since the Nine Tribes Rebellion, the Yehe tribe and the Liaodong Jurchens had been in a long-standing hostile

relationship , and she harbored a deep hatred for the fierce general Murong Gege, who had crushed the main force of the Nine Tribes coalition. Her parents had died in that

great battle! She had publicly declared that she would marry whoever could destroy the Liaodong Jurchen tribe and cut off

the head !

Therefore, upon learning that the two savages were from Murong territory, she naturally wouldn't let them go.

Xiao Fang, having been rebuffed, sheepishly ran to tell Wu Yue the bad news. Wu Yue, unaware of the situation,

was greatly puzzled: "How could this be! Brother Fang, do you know why she did this?"

Xiao Fang shook his head helplessly: "I'm also baffled..."

Wu Yue pleaded: "Brother Fang, I'd like to trouble you to find out what's going on.

Does she have a grudge against Princess Murong?"

Xiao Fang pondered for a while and said: "Judging from her expression, that's quite possible! Okay, I'll

try to find someone to help you find out."

Wu Yue said gratefully: "Brother Fang is so kind and helpful, I'm truly grateful!"

Xiao Fang patted his shoulder and smiled: "Firstly, we're both from the Central Plains, helping each other is only right;

secondly, I'm a good person, I feel a sense of closeness when I see you, this little thing is nothing." After saying that, he went out.

Watching Xiao Fang's hurried departure, Qing'er whispered, "Young Master seems to

be well-liked wherever he goes; men and women alike treat him so well."

Wu Yue sighed, "Unfortunately, Yehe Ya Dai is the most crucial one right now!"

Qing'er said, "If she sees your true colors, perhaps she'll change her mind."

Wuyue glared and said, "You brat, do you want me to use my beauty... oh no... my handsome man?"

Qing'er shrugged and said, "If it can help me escape the tiger's den, why not?"

Wuyue sighed and began to consider the problem carefully. Although she was like a prisoner here, she had at least temporarily

escaped the relentless pursuit of the Embroidered Robe Pavilion and the Flying Eagle Gate. The most urgent thing now was to heal her injuries, especially her

broken right leg, otherwise it would be inconvenient for her to do anything.

Xiao Fang was very familiar with the people in the courtyard, so this was not a problem for him. The next day, he

found out the whole story and told Wuyue everything. Finally, he said, "Her parents and the Banerda couple were close

comrades-in-arms. They all died bravely for their tribe during the Nine Tribes Rebellion. Alas, it seems you two are really in trouble!"

Wuyue groaned inwardly. She had really messed things up! The Banerda couple... why does that sound so

familiar ? Oh, I remember, Madam mentioned them. They are Sister Beifeng's parents! He never imagined that her

parents and Sister Beifeng's parents were close comrades-in-arms who died at the same time. Their backgrounds were so similar, yet their fates were so

different!

He secretly wondered if he could use Sister Beifeng's connection to persuade Yehe Yadai to let him and Qing'er

go. But that probably wouldn't work. In her eyes, Sister Beifeng was probably no less than a traitor to the tribe. In his current state

, even if she told him to run, he couldn't. What should he do?

He sighed inwardly. Women's intuition is naturally sharp. Before this long journey, both his elder sister and Sister Beifeng had given

him warnings, saying they had a very ominous premonition. Now it seemed they were right! Ever since he returned to Jinan

Prefecture from West Kunlun, everything had gone wrong. He had been chased all the way, often struggling on the edge of life and death. He had finally escaped to

the territory , only to run into the Yehe tribe, who were enemies of his wife, and Yehe Yadai, who had a deep-seated hatred for her. What bad luck!

But what's the use of regret now? He could only take this opportunity to heal his injuries; at the very least, he needed to wait until his

broken right foot had healed before discussing anything else.

During this time, while out collecting horse and cow dung, Xiao Fang drove the dilapidated oxcart, taking Wu Yue and Qing'er

on several tours of the castle, allowing them to familiarize themselves with the surroundings. Of course, Yehe Yadai had strictly ordered that

Wu Yue and Qing'er were not allowed to leave the castle.

The castle was divided into east and west sections, separated by a wall. According to Xiao Fang, the west section was

under the jurisdiction of Yehe Yadai's brother, Kurdin, whom he had never been. The area he was showing Wu Yue and Qing'er was the east section,

owned by Yehe Yadai. The castle was oval-shaped, with walls about five or six hundred zhang long, constructed of earth and stone, about

one and five zhang high. The gates faced southeast. The castle was built against a mountain, and an east-west dividing wall further

divided the east section into north and south sections. The inner city faced north, and the outer city faced south; Yehe Yadai's residence was located within the inner city.

Scattered throughout the castle were rows of single-story houses, mostly with rammed earth walls and polished bluestone tiles.

These courtyards shared a similar layout: stables on the west side, horse-drawn or ox-drawn carts against the east wall,

and piles of fodder and beans for livestock in the center, leaving only a narrow passageway a few feet wide. There were no clear streets

between , nor any shops, and few pedestrians were seen, making the place seem simple and empty,

less bustling than a small market in a village in the Central Plains.

Aside from occasional outings, Wuyue spent most of his time lying

immobile . Qing'er, however, took meticulous care of him, massaging his shoulders and legs, and

regularly applying medicine and changing bandages on his injured foot. The crisscrossing wounds on his body, thighs, and left foot

were mostly healed, but the broken bone in his right foot still needed time.
