Quick Travel: Sweet Pet Script from God
Chapter 33 The Royal Merchant Miss vs. the Young Prime Minister (12)
After meeting with Mr. Xu several times to arrange manpower, Chi Qing and Yin Huai set off for their next destination - Wu'an County.
When passing by a small forest, he asked two secret guards of similar stature to disguise themselves and then pretended to have returned home to discuss cooperation with their parents.
Chi Qing and Yin Huai took off their disguises and went directly to Wu'an County without informing any officials.
To enter Wu'an County, you need to pass through a village first. As soon as you entered, you were shocked by the tragic situation of the village.
The plaque at the entrance of the village has been washed away by the flood, and only the words on it can be vaguely recognized - Taoyuan Village.
Chi Qing sighed, "The good Taoyuan Village has become like this."
"We'll get it back to the way it was."
Yin Huai is very determined. This is his responsibility and the inheritance of the family.
"Yeah!" Chi Qing was also infected and took the initiative to grab his hand, "I believe we can do it."
The two were walking on the main road in the village. Most of the houses on both sides had been washed away, and only a few buildings were still standing.
"There seems to be no one in this village anymore." After walking for a long time, I didn't see any human habitation.
Yin Huai waved, and the hidden guard appeared in front of him in an instant.
"An Yi, take a few people to see if there are still people living in the village."
"Yes, young master." An clasped his fists and took the order to retreat.
"Princess, please take a rest first." Jiu Li, who had been following the two of them in silence, stepped forward and handed Chi Qing the kettle he had been carrying.
They had been walking for a long time and the sun was very fierce. Chi Qing couldn't hold on any longer, so he nodded and agreed.
After finding a relatively complete house and opening it, Jiuli and Suxun cleared out a clean place, and the four of them sat down to rest.
About a stick of incense later, the secret guard who went to search came back to report.
An Yi cupped his fists and saluted, his face full of unbearability. Even they, who have always been said to be cold-blooded and ruthless, would be sad to see these tragic situations.
"Master, there are still a few old people and a young man with handicapped legs and feet in the east of the village who have not left. Judging from the situation, they must have been hungry for a long time. If this continues, I'm afraid..."
An Yi didn't finish what he said, and everyone knew what the ending was.
He moved his mouth, as if he still had something to say.
Yin Huai noticed something strange about him, "Speak directly if you have anything to say."
"On the south side of the village, near the mountains and forests, there are many corpses piled up. An Er and I went to check. Those villagers were not drowned or crushed to death, but, yes, they were killed."
After An Yi finished speaking, he closed his eyes and could kill defenseless villagers. What kind of cruel person could do this?
"What?!" Chi Qing and Yin Huai were both shocked.
"Let's go. Let's go to the south first. An Yi, ask An San and the others to bring some food to the homes of the survivors first."
"Yes, sir."
Chi Qing was very anxious and walked very fast all the way. When Yin Huai saw this, he simply picked up Chi Qing and used Qing Gong to follow An Yi and fly forward.
Because of the holding position, Chi Qing and Yin Huai were facing each other, so Yin Huai saw the miserable state of the pile of corpses first.
Bodies were piled haphazardly in a large pit without even being buried.
Yin Huai covered Chi Qing's eyes with his hands, "It's too cruel, Suisui, why don't you watch it."
Chi Qing shook his head, raised his hand and opened Yin Huai's big hand, "It doesn't matter, I want to know how many people those people have."
As soon as he turned his head, Chi Qing was shocked by what he saw in front of him. He looked at it for a moment and then turned his head away unbearably.
"My subordinates have checked that these knife marks and arrow marks are most likely produced by the imperial court." An Yi said with difficulty.
"Okay, okay, okay, okay, you're taking Dayi's salary to do things that hurt the people, right?"
Chi Qing said this with gritted teeth. She had never been so angry.
Her grandfather had revolted in the first place so that people all over the world could live a better life. Her mother also went to the battlefield several times to protect the border. As an imperial merchant, her father donated an unknown amount to the national treasury.
Emperor Sheng'an is still relatively clear-sighted now, and he is devoting himself to government affairs. His body is already declining even in his prime, otherwise he would not be obsessed with immortality.
There are also those loyal officials who have neat sleeves and even official robes patched.
Why do so many hard-working people let these ill-intentioned people ruin their hard work?
How do these people who harm the people deserve to live in this world?
"I will make them pay the price." The young man said firmly with a mixture of intolerance and persistence on his face.
"Come on Suisui, let's go see the survivors who are still alive."
Yin Huai gently pulled Chi Qing, half-hug her in his arms, and led her forward.
"Okay." Her voice was soft and trembling.
"Jiu Li, arrange for the shadow guards to sort out the evidence and let these people rest in their graves."
Jiu Li accepted the order, "Yes, Princess, I will make arrangements right now."
Yin Huai still hugged Chi Qing and used Qinggong to rush to the east of the village. The few surviving old people and young people were thanking An San and the others profusely. If An San and the others hadn't been holding them up, they would have kneeled on the ground.
An San saw his master flying in with his future mistress, and quickly helped the villagers.
"Old man, please get up first, our master is here."
The old man burst into tears and said, "You are all good people, you are all good people."
Seeing Yin Huai and Chi Qing walking in, several villagers walked toward them tremblingly, saying "Thank you for the good Samaritans, thank you for the good Samaritans" as they walked.
Yin Huai quickly asked people to comfort the villagers and sit down. Their weak bodies made people feel like they would fall apart after just a few steps.
The villagers were very weak after not having food for several days, and their bodies were full of filth. Chi Qing and Yin Huai didn't mind at all. They sat among several villagers and handed them dry food and water.
"Eat something first and rest your stomach before we talk." Chi Qing comforted them, and his sweet tone calmed down the slightly excited villagers.
Because they had been hungry for a long time, the two of them did not dare to give them much at once. They first gave them enough food to fill them up for five minutes to prevent them from choking to death due to eating too much and drinking too much water.
After the villagers had eaten, Yin Huai asked carefully, "Guys, what exactly happened in this village."
Hearing this, the villagers became excited again and even shed muddy tears.
The voices of several elderly people were vague, and they couldn't understand what was happening after talking for a long time.
The young man with handicapped legs and feet wiped the tears on his face and said, "Uncles, let me tell you."
The young man's face was full of grief and anger, and his voice was weak and trembling.
"My name is Li Erzhu, and I am the son of the previous village chief here. Unfortunately, my father, my father..."
Li Erzhu burst into tears as he spoke. Chi Qing handed over a handkerchief and said, "Don't be anxious, speak slowly."
