Calculated according to modern time, Cheng Wan and Chunwen probably stayed in the room for less than five minutes in total.

Cheng Wan and Chunwen quickly walked out of the house and saw Mrs. Lin and Cheng Xiaoyu hurriedly packing things.

When Mrs. Lin saw Cheng Wan, she almost cried with an expression on her face.

"Awan, we don't even have a trolley at home, so we can't carry much stuff with us!"

"It's all my fault! I shouldn't have stopped you when you wanted to buy a mule cart. What should I do?"

Cheng Wan quickly comforted Mrs. Lin, "Nay, my friend has arranged a carriage and a mule cart for our family, the two at the back outside the courtyard. There are also some supplies in the car."

Mrs. Lin was shocked.

The mountains of escape weighed heavily on her heart, but they couldn't stop her from being shocked.

What kind of friend is this? Not only do they deliver letters, but they also deliver cars and things.

No matter what, with these two cars, the problem of the Cheng family not being able to carry much belongings was perfectly solved.

Cheng Wan joined the team of packing belongings, and Chunwen not only helped himself, but also called three coachmen to help.

Cheng Wan and the others were responsible for packing, and the three driver's were responsible for loading it into the car.

However, Cheng Wan had specifically told her that the packed belongings should be placed tightly on the mule cart first, leaving the cart as empty as possible so that she could keep it for future use.

Mrs. Lin and Cheng Xiaoyu were led by Cheng Wan to keep their feet on the ground, and their panic and panic gradually calmed down.

At this moment, many villagers living near Cheng's house came outside the hospital.

"Old sister, what are you doing here? It looks like you are moving. And what's going on with the carriage and mule carriage?"

The person who asked the question was Mrs. Lin’s old sister, Mrs. Zhang.

Mrs. Lin handed the two large and small iron pots at home to a rickshaw driver, wiped the sweat from her head, and said anxiously: "What are you moving to? This is an escape! What the hell, the prince wants to recruit soldiers for a war. When he is fifteen, All men aged forty-five will be conscripted, and the conscription order is coming to our village soon. You should go home and pack your things quickly."

A stone stirred up a thousand waves.

The big guys suddenly opened their eyes in shock and started making noises.

The first reaction of most people was not to believe what Mrs. Lin said. After all, they were living a peaceful life. Who would believe it when such a bomb suddenly came?

Mrs. Zhang’s letter.

Mrs. Zhang and Mrs. Lin have been good sisters for many years, and she understands Mrs. Lin very well.

Looking at the way Mrs. Lin spoke, she knew that what Mrs. Lin said was true.

And who would be so clueless as to joke about something like this.

Mrs. Zhang said hello to Mrs. Lin with a pale face and hurried home.

"Aunt Lin, where did you get this news? If there is a conscription, shopkeeper Jia is in the county every day, he can't possibly not know about it, right? Didn't you hear that he came back with a message?"

Cheng Wan came out with two quilts in her arms. When she heard this, she said with a cold face: "That's because shopkeeper Jia was locked up in the county town and couldn't get out. He didn't hear that all the men between the ages of fifteen and forty-five were Are you going to be expropriated? Has Shopkeeper Jia reached forty-five?"

The crowd suddenly fell silent.

Cheng Wan saw the suspicion, fear and panic on everyone's faces, and said sternly: "If you want to watch your men being taken away, just wait at home. If you don't want to, go home and pack your things quickly. Don't stay at my house Around the courtyard.”

"Awan!"

Cheng Daniu and Cheng Daping are back.

The two of them were running fast, and Wang was slightly behind them.

It must be said that Jiajia Village is indeed a large village with a large population, and the Cheng family is quite far away from the village chief's home.

Otherwise, Cheng Daniu and the others would have arrived home when Cheng Wan and Chunwen came out of the house.

Behind Wang, Village Chief Jia was being carried by his second son with an anxious look on his face, while the village chief's third son was nervously following behind him, protecting him from falling.

"village head!"

When the surrounding villagers saw the village chief, their eyes lit up.

"Village chief, the Cheng family said that there is going to be a war and that they want to recruit soldiers. Do you know about this?"

"Village chief, if there is really a conscription, where should we escape?"

"village head,……"

As soon as Village Chief Jia got off the back of his second son, before he could stand still, he heard a scream.

Village Chief Jia closed his eyes with a headache and shouted: "Shut up!"

When the village chief spoke, the villagers were very considerate.

No one spoke anymore, but everyone's faces showed anxiety and uneasiness.

Village Chief Jia quickly exhaled, calmed down, stared at Cheng Wan, and asked with a serious face: "How did your family know about the news that King An was recruiting troops for war?"

Cheng Wan called Chunwen over, "This girl escaped from the county town and knows the situation in the city best. Let her tell you."

After saying that, Cheng Wan called Cheng Daniu, Cheng Daping and Wang who had just returned, and continued to pack things.

Time was precious, and she had already said everything she needed to say. She didn't have time to explain the situation in detail to these people.

As Chunwen described the situation in the city seriously, the expressions on the faces of Village Chief Jia and others became more and more ugly.

Especially when Chun Wen mentioned that the gates of the county city were closed, government officials and soldiers arrested people everywhere, and finally some people even killed the officials guarding the city gates in order to escape from the city, the expressions on everyone's faces became panic-stricken.

"That's the situation. It's a definite fact that King An wants to forcefully recruit troops. You can make up your own mind whether to stay or leave."

Keep? How could it be possible to stay!

No one wants their main male to be drafted into the battlefield, which would mean a narrow escape from death.

Although it is possible to serve as a soldier and become an official, it is very rare for a lucky person to do so.

Let alone serving as an official, I am luckier than most people if I can come back alive.

Cheng Wan didn't need to say anything now. The people in the village who had been staying here dispersed in an instant.

Only Village Chief Jia was shouting and covering his heart, "Dalang and the others...my sons!"

That was his most promising son and his favorite grandson.

Chunwen looked at this scene and felt a little unbearable. He wanted to comfort him and said: Maybe your son and grandson escaped during that time.

But after hesitating, Chunwen remained silent.

She didn't want her unfounded guesses to affect Village Chief Jia's judgment and choices.

Fortunately, Village Chief Jia was a man who had experienced great storms. He only mourned for a short while, then cheered up, arranged for his second son and third son to separate, and hurried to the village to inform others that King An was recruiting troops for the war.

It's up to you to decide whether to stay or go.

Those who want to stay, wish themselves well.

Those who want to leave will meet at the entrance of the village in two quarters of an hour.

Village Chief Jia glanced at Chunwen at two-quarters of an hour, meaning would two-quarters of an hour be too long?

Chunwen said with a serious face: "Those who want to leave must leave in a quarter of an hour at the latest. Although Jiajia Village is far away from the county seat, it will take some time for the recruiting team to reach Jiajia Village, but if they find that everyone is gone when they arrive in the village, We will definitely pursue him. The sooner you leave, the safer you will be."

"Cheng Wan, where are your family going?"

Cheng Wan was checking the things on the mule cart. When she heard Chief Jia's question, she turned back to look at Chief Jia and replied, "Our family is going north, to Liangzhou."

Village Chief Jia said in shock: "Liangzhou?"

Cheng Wan nodded.

Village Chief Jia originally wanted to say: Liangzhou is far away and bitterly cold, so it is not a good place to go.

But in the end, Village Chief Jia still swallowed these words. He could see that Cheng Wan was not a temperament that could be easily persuaded, and what Cheng Wan said was very effective now.

"I plan to take the villagers who are willing to follow me to the capital. The emperor's feet are always much safer. To the capital, we have to go north. We can take a short journey. If your family changes their mind on the way, You can go to the capital with us. It is always better for people from a village to go to a new place than to go to a new place as a family."

Cheng Wan nodded seriously. She could tell that Village Chief Jia had good intentions.

But if nothing unexpected happens, she probably won't change her mind.
