Soon, the guards who went out to find the water source and the eunuchs came back. Everyone worked together to dig a water well outside the yard.

Sure enough, they found the groundwater source and were very excited. They immediately took a bucket and drew water from the well to start extinguishing the fire.

It took everyone a whole day to finally put out the yard, and their faces were covered with black paint, like a flower-faced cat.

Xiao Yichen said: "Stay in place and take a break after half an hour, get back to the palace!"

Everyone was busy for so long, and they were tired, thirsty and hungry. I heard that after resting for half an hour, they all ran to the well and fed water to drink water.

Because Xiao Yichen came out this time, he originally took Yueyue back to the palace and didn't plan to stay for long, so no one brought dry food.

After yesterday night, today I was digging a well and putting out a fire. At this time, I was so hungry that my chest was pressed against my back.

Seeing that they were all listless, Dongfang Lingyu walked over and said, "The emperor said that he would return to the palace in half an hour. It's still a long time. You all go to the mountain to get some prey. I'll ask General Manager Zhen to take people here to raise the fire and wait."

When the guards heard this, they couldn't help but look at Xiao Yichen with their eyes.

The queen has just gone, how dare they eat meat?

Xiao Yichen felt the gazes of his eyes and said lightly: "It's still two hours away from the palace. Everyone is tired and hungry. It's too late to care about the extraordinary times. I guess Yueyue won't blame you either."

When everyone heard this, they immediately became interested and went up the mountain to hunt with their weapons.

These guards are the most elite troops around Xiao Yichen. Each of them is a person selected from a hundred. It is naturally a slight idea to ask them to hunt a few preys.

In less than a cup of tea, someone immediately came back with a rabbit and sparrow.

Zhen Fu led the eunuchs and palace maids to wash the wild game brought back by the guards in the well water for a while, and then put it on the fire and roasted it.

After a while, the guards who went out came back one after another. The wild game they brought back was washed and barbecued in batches.

When the first batch of wild game was roasted, the guard leader brought two big hares and presented them to Xiao Yichen.

Xiao Yichen glanced lightly, and had no intention of reaching out to pick it up. He just listened to him: "You eat, I'm not hungry."

The guard leader didn't know what to do for a moment, and looked at Dongfang Lingyu as if he was asking for help.

Dongfang Lingyu turned around, reached out and snatched the two rabbits in his hand, and said, "Your Majesty is not hungry, I am hungry, let's belong to me, you can eat them too."

The two rabbits dedicated to Xiao Yichen were simply hot potatoes in the hands of the guard leader. Now that they were captured by Dongfang Lingyu, he immediately felt relieved and ran to eat wild game.

Xiao Yichen's eyes slowly swept over the guards and eunuchs and palace maids. Seeing them snatching food like a joyful thing, they felt a sense of sadness for no reason.

It’s really cold to have a heartbreak when they can eat so happily just after Yueyue has gone!

"Do you think they are heartless?" Dongfang Lingyu seemed to see through his thoughts, walked over and stood there side by side with him.

Xiao Yichen glanced at him and said, "Isn't it?"

Dongfang Lingyu sighed softly and said, "What do you want them to do? Bury Yue'er with you?"

Xiao Yichen snorted and said, "Yueyue won't want to!"

Dongfang Lingyu nodded and said, "Yes, Yue'er won't want to. You said just now, Yue'er doesn't want to see them suffer for herself."
