Chapter 370 He had to re-examine the couple in front of him
The old emperor looked at the purse that Yu Jiuer handed to him in shock. Maybe it was the first time in his life that he had to use stolen money, so he felt a little embarrassed, right?
It felt a little hot in his hand, but he didn't dare to educate Yu Jiuer in front of the people from the Western Regions. After all, he would be exposed if he spoke.
It’s not right to take it, nor to throw it away, and my face is filled with embarrassment!
Yu Jiuer leaned close to his ear and comforted him with a smile: "Father, the coastal area of the Western Regions is the territory of our Great Dong Dynasty, and the silver here belongs to our Great Dong Dynasty. They occupied our territory and used our resources, and now they are just returning the property to its original owner. Don't worry about it, just use it with confidence!"
The old emperor hesitated for a while and looked at Jun Mo with an extremely awkward expression.
Jun Mo nodded to him and told him to use it with confidence.
The old emperor's mouth trembled and he glared at Yu Jiuer, as if accusing Yu Jiuer of leading his son astray.
Seeing that he was still stubborn, Yu Jiuer ignored him and walked straight forward holding Jun Mo's hand.
The two stopped in front of a cake stall.
Jun Mo even boldly put his arm around Yu Jiuer's shoulders.
This little action made the old emperor behind them almost pop his eyes out.
When they were holding hands blatantly just now, he had already wanted to warn them, but now they dared to go one step further and hug each other in the street? Would they kiss if they continued to do so?
What kind of system is this?
The old emperor quickened his pace and was about to step forward to separate the two people who were violating moral standards and corrupting social practices, when Yueying, who was following them, quickly came up and grabbed the old emperor's arm.
He glanced somewhere else on the street, motioning for him to look around.
The old emperor looked around and realized that there were many men and women holding hands on the street, some hugging and some even kissing in the street.
The old emperor froze where he was, and after a while he came back to his senses and looked at his son and daughter-in-law in front of him, and discovered that their little movements seemed harmonious and casual in this place?
He felt confused inside, touched his nose, and came behind the two without saying a word.
Hearing them talking to the small vendors in the Western language without any obstacles, the old emperor was stunned again. At this moment, he truly realized that his son and daughter-in-law were so amazing that they could even speak the Western language so fluently?
He had to re-examine the perfect couple in front of him.
Jun Mo and Yu Jiuer continued to walk forward carrying the cake they bought. The sweet smell of the cake made the old emperor drool, but the two people in front of them ignored it and continued to walk forward.
At the barbecue stall, they bought a lot of skewers, chatted in Western dialect, and ate them on the street, ignoring the old man who was drooling over the food behind them.
The old emperor felt very unhappy. He used to be the protagonist wherever he went, with many people following him. How could he have ever been treated so coldly?
He ran forward a few steps and squeezed in between the two unfilial younger generations in front of him to express his strong dissatisfaction.
Jun Mo put the fragrant barbecue skewer to the old emperor's mouth and signaled him to try it with his eyes.
The old emperor's saliva was flooding. He swallowed a large mouthful of saliva with a "gulp", opened his mouth wide and bit into the food, wolfing it down.
All the respect, courtesy, morality and honor are thrown out the window, and eating is the first priority.
He was still not satisfied after finishing the meal, so he snatched the food from Yu Jiuer's hand and ate it with relish.
After that, whenever he came across something delicious, the old emperor would be the first to rush over and put the food into his mouth without any hesitation.
He couldn't speak, but his movements were very clear. Jun Mo, who followed behind him, had no choice but to pay him the money and clean up the mess.
After eating and drinking their fill, and buying a lot of seafood and rare stuff, they found an empty seat under a big tree, sat down and watched the hustle and bustle of the street, allowing the old emperor to truly feel the prosperity of the Western Coast.
The shock in the old emperor's eyes has not faded until now.
As soon as Yu Jiuer saw his jealous expression, she knew that what she asked of him had been accomplished, and she was secretly happy!
But she couldn't be happy for long, as a group of Western Region soldiers approached them.
The two shadow guards immediately became alert and looked a little nervous. Yueying quickly sent them a look that urged them to stay calm. Didn't their expressions suggest that they were trying to hide their true intentions?
In this situation, the more guilty and alert you are, the more suspicious people will be.
Yu Jiuer and Jun Mo were still chatting as if nothing had happened.
The old emperor was, after all, a great emperor. Fortunately, he had not lost his ability to remain calm in the face of adversities and was able to maintain a calm sitting posture.
The Western Region soldiers came over and said to them, "Identity check, show your ID cards! Where are you from?"
Jun Mo calmly took out the Western Region identity cards he had prepared in advance and handed them to them, and briefly explained his identity to them in fluent Western Region language.
Yu Jiuer motioned for everyone else to take out their ID cards, then she said to the Western Region soldiers with a smile, "Thank you for your hard work! We'll just go shopping and then go home. We won't cause any trouble for you!"
As he said this, he opened the skewers that he had not finished eating and offered them some.
The Western Region soldier didn't bother to be polite with her and just picked it up and ate it.
The Western Region soldier was soft-hearted and did his routine work. He glanced at the identity cards held out by the other people and started to grab the skewers. He ate while walking towards the next group of people and did not continue to bother Yu Jiuer and the others.
Looking at their receding backs, the old emperor secretly breathed a sigh of relief, tugged at Jun Mo's sleeve, and signaled him to return quickly.
His cowardly look made Yu Jiuer feel itchy and she wanted to scold him again.
But before Yu Jiuer could speak, there was a commotion coming from the Western Region soldiers who had just walked away.
Yu Jiuer listened attentively. Waves of wailing and shouting and cursing came from the crowd, accompanied by the Western Region soldiers: "I told you to sneak out. I told you not to obey orders. I will beat you to death!"
Yu Jiuer took a few steps forward curiously and heard a man begging weakly: "Slave, I was wrong. I won't dare to do it again. Please forgive me, sir!"
It turned out that the soldiers from the Western Regions were beating slaves. Judging from their accents, the slaves being beaten should be from Yinshan.
On the coast of the Western Regions, only the people of Yinshan can speak such poor Western dialect.
Yu Jiuer could no longer maintain her composure and ran forward.
Pushing through the crowd, what came into view was a middle-aged man who was beaten and covered in blood. Judging from his appearance, he was undoubtedly from Yinshan.
"Sir, please show mercy!" Yu Jiuer suppressed her anger and said to him with a smile, "If you continue to fight, the man will die. Why don't you sell him to me?"
The Western Region soldier glanced at Yu Jiuer. He had just eaten her skewers, so he gave her face and stopped beating and scolding her temporarily.
"This slave is not mine! He didn't know what was happening, so he ran out to look for food. According to the law, a slave who goes out without a master will be beaten half to death and then handed over to the master for disposal. Go ask his master to buy it for him!" The Western Region soldier picked up the slave like a dead dog, looked around and asked,
"Whose dog is this?"
No one in the crowd claimed it, so he asked again, but still no one responded.
He threw the slave to the ground and asked him, "Who is your master?"
The slave curled up on the ground with a painful expression. Before he could say anything, his whole body relaxed and he fainted.
"What bad luck!" The Western Region soldier was so angry that he kicked him in the stomach again. "Now we have to find time to report him to the government. What a hassle!"
