Chapter 1791: Thank You for Saving Me

Chen Li was a little anxious. He saw his sister eating so little like a cat every time. He couldn’t help saying, “Actually, you don’t need to give me your share.”

“Oh, I’m not hungry.” Ning Shu stood up, ready to wander around. This was the military camp of Dazhou, so there must be various weapons and armors.

Ning Shu saw Fang Yong wiping the bow and arrow. After thinking about it for a second, she walked over to say, “Thank you for saving me.”

Earlier in the intense battle, when the arrow shot towards her, only Fang Yong had the capability to shoot the arrow away.

Fang Yong opened his mouth and said, “No need to thank me. Since we are all on the same side, it’s impossible for me not to help when your life’s in danger.”

The atmosphere between Fang Yong and Ning Shu was quite awkward. There had been a conflict between their families previously, so it would be a lie if they said that things were completely fine between them.

Ning Shu thanked Fang Yong once again before turning and leaving. She would just return his life-saving grace next time.

General Liu led the army to the wealthy people in the prefecture city to ask for food. Putting it nicely, he was asking for these people to sponsor and support his work.

However, if they didn’t, then he would just ransack and exterminate their families.

General Liu only targeted the wealthy. After taking over the city, he did not wantonly massacre the populace. He first spoke to the grain merchants in Dazhou City.

If the merchant wanted to dominate the market or drive up food prices, General Liu would directly send them off to hell and then slowly collect the food.

He had enough authority over the city. Besides, with soldiers and people in hand, he could solve many problems. If the wealthy refused to fall in line, they were just looking for a beating.

The people in Dazhou were trembling at first. However, when the rebel army did not move against these ordinary people, they became more courageous.

Seeing as General Liu was going to collect money, Ning Shu urged Chen Li to bring the group. There were always some good scraps if they followed behind. They could get their hands on some loot.

After Dazhou City was captured, their group was seeing much better days. Although they weren’t eating meat every meal, it wasn’t the rock-hard cornbread either. The coarse-grain steamed buns with broth that tasted faintly of meat were not bad.

They were also allocated some weapons from the Dazhou barracks.

Ning Shu sorted out the medicinal materials sent by General Liu. It was obvious that General Liu wanted to make use of her as a free doctor. Ning Shu made some hemostatic golden wound salve.

General Liu squeezed all the resources he could out of Dazhou City. He then summoned several leaders, including Ning Shu, and said, “This general has decided to be known as emperor.”

Chen Li reflexively looked at Ning Shu, but she didn’t say anything. He was going to be the emperor sooner or later anyways.

One country, two emperors, a country inside a country!

The court would probably have a full-blown reaction. This was a provocation. Until now, it had been just ordinary riots. Hence, the court only sent troops to suppress them at most. But now that he claimed the title of emperor, it would be strange if the court put up with him anymore.

Perhaps there would be a fierce counterattack coming their way soon. It was hard to say if they could withstand it.

Seeing that no one was saying anything, Ning Shu kept her mouth shut as well. He who stuck his neck out at this moment would suffer after all. Furthermore, the fact that she, a woman, was sitting here, was enough for the others to be antagonistic toward her.

Chen Li saw that Ning Shu was spacing out with her head lowered, so he remained silent and said nothing.

This whole time, the entire room was quiet. General Liu said, “If you have anything to say, you can speak freely.”

A man stood up and said, “This subordinate supports the general becoming emperor.”

Following his lead, two more people stood up.

If General Liu proclaimed himself emperor, he would obviously bestow rewards to his subordinates. No matter what, they would at least get some sort of official position, which was enough to bring great honor to their ancestors.

Fang Yong didn’t speak. His face was tranquil, and it was unknown what he was thinking.

Chen Li frowned, wondering about the advantages and disadvantages of declaring oneself an emperor.
