Granny Hei refused to say too much. She just stared at Su Yao and said in a deep voice, "I know you are the woman that the eldest grandson of the emperor likes. I also know the rules of your place. Bai Xue will not threaten you. You just need to give her a place to settle down. Isn't this possible? We can give a lot! We can help you prepare antidote, and we can also help you avoid many traps and reduce many unnecessary casualties! Isn't all this enough to exchange for a shelter?!"
Outside the house, there is the sound of gurgling water and rippling green waves in the lake. Even from such a distance, you can occasionally see small bubbles coming out of the lake, which seems particularly cool in such weather.
The wind blew the tent in the house gently, and Bai Xue's veil was also blown up, allowing Su Yao to see her full appearance clearly.
What a beautiful girl! No wonder she has to cover her face with a veil. With such a beautiful face, she will always be coveted wherever she goes.
She thought for a while, and looked at the black mother-in-law solemnly: "I don't know why you insist that Your Highness marry her. In fact, if you just want a shelter, it is not difficult. We can also take her back to the capital. If you have made contributions, then this saint girl will be the most important person in your village. We can also ask the emperor to make her a county lady or even a princess. How is this different from being the emperor's eldest grandson's consort?"
Black Granny sneered, "How can it be different? So what if you are given the title of Princess or County Lady? Does that mean you don't have to get married?"
Su Yao was stunned. After all the talk, the key point seemed to be getting married.
It seems that the black mother-in-law insists that the saint girl get married, instead of having to marry Xiao Heng
Su Yao did not reply. Black Granny's face changed and she said to Su Yao: "Go back first and think about what I said. I am only doing this for the good of both of us. Otherwise, both of us will suffer!"
After she finished speaking, she got up and left in a hurry, as if she had something urgent to deal with.
Su Yao and Bai Xue were the only ones left in the room. Bai Xue looked at Su Yao calmly, stood up and said, "I'll take you back."
Su Yao stood up with her, and suddenly felt that this girl was too calm. Just now, Black Granny was so excited, but for Bai Xue, she didn't seem to have any emotions at all. It seemed that marrying Xiao Heng was just a mission that had to be completed.
She was a little curious, so she couldn't help but ask, "I don't quite understand why the Saint must marry the Emperor's eldest grandson. I wonder if Miss Bai Xue can explain this to me?"
Bai Xue stopped, stood on the corridor of the stilt house and looked at the floating sea of clouds outside, and suddenly said to Su Yao: "Look down."
Su Yao followed her gaze and saw a number of horses coming along the winding mountain road.
Those people were stopped when they arrived at the village gate. Many people from the Heihua Miao village blocked the entrance and prevented them from coming in.
There was a fierce fight between the two sides, neither of them was willing to give in, and one could vaguely see them starting to fight.
Combined with the information obtained before, it is not difficult to guess the other party's identity. Su Yao pursed his lips and said, "Leave Jiangzhai."
Bai Xue nodded and led her slowly down the mountain from another road. They did not walk very fast. There was even a section of the road that was a path carved out of the mountain wall. Su Yao and Yan Cao could only hold on to the trees on the mountain wall to walk. When they reached the foot of the mountain, Su Yao saw that the two groups in front had already started fighting.
Su Yao had only heard of the Gu fight before, but this time he really saw the whole picture.
The people in Lijiang Village used some unknown method, but it even attracted many red ants. Those ants were densely packed on the ground and rushed towards the people in Heihua Miao Village as fast as a stream of water. The scene was like a nightmare.
Wherever those ants passed, people basically saw what it meant to have no grass growing.
Fortunately, the people in Heihua Miao Village also had a way and quickly released a group of toads.
The younger generations Su Yao saw felt cold. Even though they were so far away, she knew very well that those things did not touch her at all. However, she was still dazed by them and felt as if her body was covered with ants.
Fortunately, the fight didn’t last long. When the red ants were almost eaten by the toad-like creatures, a man with a red headscarf from Jiang Village sneered, “You are really courting death! We haven’t settled accounts with you for colluding with the Han people before, and now you dare to betray the village! You are not worthy of being the descendants of Chi You!”
Elder Allen of the Black Flower Miao Village looked at them coldly and sneered: "We just don't want to be assimilated by you. When we formed the alliance, we clearly agreed that you would not interfere in the affairs of our village, nor would you interfere with our inheritance! But you want our saint to marry your village and breed new Gu worms for you! Aren't you robbing us?!"
Su Yao looked back at Bai Xue. She was still calm, but her eyes were very cold when she looked at the man in the red headscarf.
The man with the red headscarf laughed a few times, pointed at Allen and said sarcastically, "Come on, intermarriage between black and white has been our custom since ancient times. You white Miao girls marrying black Miao people has been like this for generations. What's wrong with the saint? It's just that she has to give up her current natal Gu. This is your blessing! Do you know that my grandfather is about to succeed? When he succeeds, let alone a black Miao village, this place will be rebuilt into a Miao Kingdom! By then, won't all of you be our slaves? Now, while I still like her, you'd better be sensible and hand her over to me quickly. I can still keep your village safe."
Allen was very angry. In the Miao village, pointing at people is a very disrespectful behavior.
Regardless of seniority or anything else, the man in the red turban is not as good as Allen. Such behavior is undoubtedly an insult to Allen.
He looked coldly at the man in the red headscarf who was pointing and gesturing in front of him, and sneered: "Your grandfather is your grandfather, and you are just a young boy, and you dare to come to our village and speak nonsense! If I don't teach you a lesson today, do you think there is really no one in my Heihua Miao Village?!"
At this time, Bai Xue suddenly said, "Did you see that? The man with the red turban is called Aji, the young leader of Lijiang Village, and he claims to be my fiancé."
Su Yao narrowed his eyes slightly.
On the other side, Allen had already taken action. After all, he was an elder, and with one move, he quickly suppressed Aji.
