Rebirth as Princess Jin again
Chapter 336 Civil strife in the city
Situ Jing here finally found Zhou Wei's woman and child. He personally led people to return the eldest princess. The eldest princess had not eaten rice for three days. In order to save her life, Zhou Wei just gave her a drink. After drinking some water, she was already unconscious when the soldiers carried her back.
When she woke up and saw herself lying on the bed, she felt like she was in another world.
Someone changed the medicine for the wounds on her body and changed her clothes. She never knew that Zhou Wei treated her like this. When she thought about that little bitch, she didn't have time to torture her so hard that she felt sick in her heart. .
Su Ying came in, saw the angry look on her face, and said coldly: "The eldest princess is weak now, so it's better to be more relaxed. If her condition worsens because of her depression, I'm afraid there is no cure!"
Situ Xue raised her eyelids slightly: "So you are Lao Qi's princess. Did you pretend to be drunk on purpose at the City Lord's Mansion that day?"
Su Ying smiled slightly: "It wasn't intentional, I just found out too late. I'm grateful that the eldest princess didn't poison us directly?"
A cold smile formed on the corners of Situ Xue's lips: "I heard that your master, Canglan Miracle Doctor, poisoned you, could it still poison you?"
Su Ying smiled and said: "Then the prince and I have to thank the eldest princess for showing mercy!"
Situ Xue gritted her teeth and glanced sideways at Su Ying. It was their husband and wife who suffered the loss that day, but she was sarcastic, which made her feel even more uncomfortable.
Su Ying brought the medicine bowl in her hand to the small table in front of Situ Xue. Situ Xue hesitated for a moment, looked at Su Ying coldly, and did not reach out to hold the medicine.
Su Ying raised her lips and smiled softly: "Don't worry, eldest princess, doctors are kind-hearted. Now that I have saved you, I will never poison you again. You are weak, and this is a tonic."
With that said, regardless of whether Situ Xue listened or not, he withdrew.
In the border town.
The people in the border city were very puzzled by the city lord's sudden closing of the city gates, and no one was allowed to enter or exit the city. They also saw many soldiers pouring into the city, crowding the entire city entrance. They also heard that officers and soldiers were also surrounding outside. The Western Regions They also increased their troops at the border, which made people panic for a while.
There has been no war in the border town for so many years since the current emperor ascended the throne. A few days ago, a sudden war broke out in Bei Liao. The people in the border town are still living happily. They have food and drink in the city, and naturally they have forgotten the pain of the wars in the past.
But if there is another war now, they are naturally unwilling to do so. After all, all their belongings are now in the city. If they fight for many years, all their accumulated wealth will be destroyed.
I don’t know when it started, but people began to come to the city tower one after another with their belongings, asking for the city gate to be opened to let them out.
However, how could the soldiers at the city gate open the city gate and let them out? Seeing that there were more and more people, the officers and soldiers guarding the city didn't know what to do, so they had to send someone to ask Zhou Wei.
There was a commotion, and a voice from among the people said: "We want to leave the city, let us out!"
Immediately afterwards, more voices sounded: "That's right, why don't you let us out of the city? Open the city gate quickly. If you are fighting, what does it have to do with us people?"
"Yes, in previous years we evacuated the people during wars, but today you lock us in the city. What are you going to do?"
"I heard that the Western Region Army has arrived at the border. If I don't leave now, I'm afraid I won't be able to leave again!"
The crowd pushed forward, and the city gate was noisy for a while.
Zhou Wei walked up to the tower and shouted: "Everyone, be quiet and listen to me!"
Seeing Zhou Wei coming, the crowd calmed down.
"If you want to leave the city, it's not impossible, but you can only go out in person, and all the gold and silver must be kept as military pay!"
As soon as he said this, a man dressed as a businessman walked out of the crowd: "What does the city lord mean by this? Our money is obtained from our own labor. If the city lord is short of military pay, we will naturally donate it, but if you want to keep it all , this is plundering the people’s fat and the people’s anointing.”
Another old man nodded repeatedly: "That's right, the current emperor is a wise king and never allows officials to plunder the people's wealth and anointing. How can the Lord of the City plunder us so blatantly!"
Zhou Wei snorted coldly: "Everyone, I have been an official in the border town for decades and have never collected any tax money from you. I will collect it all at once today."
The businessman retorted: "City Lord, the tax money required by the government every year is only a small part of our business income, but today the City Lord wants to confiscate all our belongings. How... is this allowed?"
Zhou Wei looked unkind and said: "Why not? If you don't want to give it, then you will keep your life!"
At this time, a strong man came out: "I heard that the soldiers outside the border city were from the King of Jin. The city lord colluded with the Western Regions in an attempt to annihilate His Highness the King of Jin's men and hand over the border city to the Western Regions. Now it seems that this statement is not true. Groundless!"
Zhou Wei said coldly: "Where did you hear these lies? How dare you come here to confuse the public with your lies? Come on, take it down for me!"
The strong man took the opportunity and shouted loudly: "Everyone, run away. He wants to kill people and silence them. I have relatives in the army. This is not my lie, but the truth. We can't be deceived by him!"
The crowd began to commotion, and for a while the entire city gate was in commotion. The strong man took this opportunity to escape from the crowd, and soon disappeared into the sea of people.
Zhou Wei looked at the people fleeing in panic under the city tower with cold eyes. It seemed that the people underneath were not people, but a group of lambs waiting to be slaughtered. He would only wait for Junyue and his men to attack the tents outside the city, then he would open the city gate again. The inside should be in harmony with the outside.
When the time comes, he will hand over the entire border town to Junyue. When Junyue returns to the Western Regions and ascends the throne as emperor, he will be the number one hero.
At this time, a soldier walked to the top of the city, cupped his hands towards Zhou Wei and said, "Master Qi, I was observing the border at the west gate just now, and I seem to have seen the army of the Western Regions breaking up camp and retreating!"
Zhou Wei was shocked, grabbed the soldier's clothes, and asked in disbelief: "What did you say?"
The soldier swallowed his saliva and said, "The villain saw that the army from the Western Regions was breaking out of camp..."
Before he finished speaking, Zhou Wei quickly descended from the city tower and rode towards the west city gate. When he boarded the west city gate, he saw that the army of the Western Regions was really retreating outside.
"How is that possible? What happened?" Zhou Wei muttered to himself.
He thought that he had not received any news from Junyue for three consecutive days, and he suddenly felt uneasy. He hurriedly went down the tower and returned to his mansion.
When the master saw him coming back, he asked cautiously: "What's really wrong, sir?"
Zhou Wei didn't reply, turned around and asked him: "Have you received any news from the Western Regions today?"
The master quickly replied: "No!"
Zhou Wei's eyes turned: "How are those people doing?"
The master was stunned for a moment before realizing: "Following your instructions, those beggars have been feeding me good food and drink. They started to add some things to their diet yesterday. They have started to have symptoms today, but the symptoms are not obvious yet!"
