He had already made up his mind. One day, after he had repaid his benefactor and settled Zian down, he would join the army.
He would go to the barracks and achieve his dream of becoming a great general.
At this time, Chu Xuanchen said, "Meng Zheng, Meng Zian, since you want to follow me, then you can be my bodyguards. In the future, if you still want to go to the barracks, I will recommend you. "
"Really? Young Master knows people in the barracks? That's great. "Meng Zheng said excitedly.
Meng Zian also looked grateful. "Young Master, you are really a good person."
At this time, Meng Zheng suddenly asked, "Oh right! Young Master, Madam, we still don't know your names. May I ask where you are from and what your names are? "
Chu Xuanchen thought for a moment and said, "My surname is Chu, and my wife's surname is Yun. We are from the capital."
He didn't want to say anything more.
Meng Zheng was surprised. He didn't expect this young master to refuse to say his name. It seemed this young master's identity was very mysterious.
Since the young master didn't want to, he certainly wouldn't force him.
He believed that one day he would know.
"Well, since my husband has already accepted you, then you can come with us. Fung, go prepare a carriage and let the two of them rest in it. It won't be too late to do anything after their bodies have fully recovered. "Yun Ruoyue said.
"Thank you, Madam." The two of them cupped their hands.
After the two of them left, Chu Xuanchen said to Yun Ruoyue, "This Meng Zheng's martial arts is good. He also memorizes military books very well. He is a promising talent. However, he doesn't have any real combat experience. He only knows how to talk on paper and doesn't know how to be flexible. He is young and impetuous, likes to talk big and likes to boast. This kind of person needs to be beaten, to dampen his spirit, and to temper himself before he can be used. "
Yun Ruoyue smiled and said, "Yes, but I didn't expect that he would dare to say that he knew you. Isn't he afraid of being exposed?"
"He might be afraid that I don't want him. That's why he said that." Chu Xuanchen said.

After resting here for a night.
The next morning, Yun Ruoyue and the others prepared to set off.
At this time, she saw that all the people of Meng Village were carrying their bags and walking towards the Imperial City.
She hurriedly stopped them. "Everyone, are you going to the Imperial City?"
"Yes, our village was flooded and we had nowhere to go. I heard that there are many officials and nobles in the Imperial City. Who knows, they might reward us with food so that we won't starve to death! "
So this was what the commoners thought. They thought that the Imperial City was filled with gold.
Yun Ruoyue said, "This place is very far away from the Imperial City. I'm afraid that you'll starve to death before you reach it! "When we came here, we saw many starving people along the way. They all wanted to go to the Imperial City, but they starved to death before they reached it. I don't want you to follow in their footsteps, so I'm reminding you that you'd rather stay in Jiangnan and wait for the imperial envoy to come and provide disaster relief than go to the Imperial City! "
Yesterday, she had told everyone that an imperial envoy had come to Jiangnan to provide disaster relief. She had not expected that everyone would want to go to the Imperial City.
Someone said, "Madam, it's not that we want to go to the Imperial City. It's just that everyone knows that an imperial envoy has come to Jiangnan. Everyone is running to Jiangzhou and other places and waiting for all the disaster victims to rush there. If there are too many people, I'm afraid that when it's our turn, there won't be anything left. We'll only end up starving to death. So it's better to do the opposite and go to the Imperial City. Maybe the Emperor will care about us! "
The Emperor will care about them. Yun Ruoyue chuckled.
