Rebirth of the Firstborn Daughter: Life is like a Dream

The shopkeeper's capable assistant, who was giving instructions for something, obviously heard the conversation between the two men. His expression changed slightly, and he turned and walked outside. After a while, he came in with the Sixth Prince.

The Sixth Prince walked up to the two merchants and said, "Two young men, can you tell me carefully what you just said? What does the person who led others to rob the civilians' rice look like?"

The two merchants were terrified. They never thought that their whispers could be heard. They were afraid that the guy next to them was a companion of those grain robbers, so they refused to move even at death.

It was only after the Sixth Prince's capable deputy spoke loudly that he got them to tell the truth.

It turned out that two days ago, dozens of brave soldiers suddenly appeared in several nearby villages and robbed all the grains from the villagers. They also claimed that the court borrowed them to help the poor victims. The civilians complained in silence and had to let them take away the little grains left.

After hearing these words, the Sixth Prince was furious. Even though he had not seen these brave soldiers who robbed the grains, he could guess who did it. It must be the missing prince!

"Take a few people to take a look at the village they described, and bring back the portraits of the people who led the way to rob grains." The Sixth Prince turned around and coldly ordered his capable deputy.

The capable deputy also had an angry look on his face. He waved his hands and strode away with his head held high.

Realizing that the Sixth Prince and the people who robbed the grains were not his companions, the innkeeper couldn't help but say, "After all, these farmers are really pitiful. They have gone through so much trouble to avoid the disasters brought by heaven, but they can't escape the disasters caused by humans. They thought the court was really so cruel, but it turned out to be a disguise."

The Sixth Prince had a stern face, and his expression became increasingly uglier as he listened to every word spoken by the crowd.

Wei Bingyan looked at him and couldn't help thinking in her heart that if the person who robbed the grain was really the missing prince, then the prince would probably be finished this time.

On the second day, when Wei Bingyan and the others were preparing to set off, they noticed that the pawns brought by the Sixth Prince had disappeared long ago, and they thought they must have set off for Huaixi.

They walked for a long time and passed two villages on the way. Both of them were villages whose grains and rice had just been robbed. There were many civilians on the road who were listlessly repairing their furniture. It was obvious that the furniture had been smashed.

Wei Bingyan asked Aunt Yin to go down and find out what happened at that time.

Aunt Yin asked several households and found out that two days ago a group of soldiers rushed into the village, saying that the court wanted to borrow grain and took away all the food reserves. These soldiers looked a little embarrassed, with mud on their bodies, and no one knew where they came from.

According to the explanation of these farmers, Wei Bingyan was sure that the person who led the army to rob grain was the prince.

Why did the prince rob food? Where did the several cartloads of grain he brought from the capital go?

Since he stole the grains, where is that guy?

Wei Bingyan had many questions in her mind, but she could not get them answered, so she had to keep moving forward. She kept appearing at the place where landslides blocked the way. The Sixth Prince left dozens of people behind to completely open up the winding mountain road, while he himself rushed to Huaixi with his capable deputies and others.

With the help of these little pawns, Wei Bingyan and his companions finally got out of the winding mountain road smoothly.

Before Your Majesty issued an order to build a long dam on both sides of the Luosha River, every summer when the birds were singing and the insects were chirping and the weather was hot and lively, the civilians living near the Luosha River had always suffered from floods. This long dam was built for several years and was not officially completed until the end of last year.

The prince became the supervisor of the long dam only last year, but the huge amount of money allocated from the imperial treasury for the construction of the dam had been controlled by Li Gong many years ago.

Huaixi is located in the lower reaches of the Luosha River. There are several villages nearby that are far away from the hustle and bustle, but Wei Bingyan has no way to get close. This time, the flood not only affected the long dam downstream, but also the middle stream. The civilians affected are countless. If the court does not handle it properly, it may cause riots and disorder.

Wei Bingyan and her companions settled down in the safe, fast and efficient post station. Fortunately, before leaving, the old man gave her a small token, which made it easier for them to move into the safe, fast and efficient post station.

"What should we do? The cruel and merciless flood has not receded. We have no way of looking for people anxiously." Looking at the fierce wind and rain outside, the thin branches on the side of the road were made to be crooked.

The scene was desolate, and many civilians who had fled the disaster had come out with their families. They looked as if they were too hungry, their faces were pale, and their clothes were worn and old. It was obvious that they had come here begging pitifully.

In such a prosperous era, it was unexpected to see such a scene. Wei Bingyan's stomach tightened, but she did not dare to ask Aunt Yin to take away the pure natural food without pesticide residue in the carriage and give it sincerely to these poor beggars. Now these people were already hungry and their stomachs were rumbling, and they were about to lose their rationality.

If they were allowed to see food, they would surely go crazy and rush forward to snatch it away, which might then cause even greater harm.

"If the prince hadn't lost the grains, those people wouldn't have gradually become like that!" Seeing that Wei Bingyan didn't give a formal reply, Guan Mengxin looked in the direction of her eyes and spoke bitterly.

Wei Bingyan sighed, reluctantly retracting her sight, and said to Guan Mengxin, "You just heard from the people at the posthouse that the Crown Prince and the Sixth Prince went to Huaixi one after another. If we go there now, maybe we can run into Second Senior Brother."

"But the people at the inn also said that they have never seen anyone like Abao among the prince's group of people." Guan Mengxin said.

"Then we have to go and see for ourselves!" Wei Bingyan's penetrating eyes revealed a resolute expression, "We can disguise ourselves as doctors and say we want to go into Li Jing's peaceful village to diagnose him. These brave soldiers will definitely let us pass."

"Miss, it's too dangerous." Uncle Hai, who had been silent on the road, heard Wei Bingyan's words outside and finally couldn't help but open his mouth.

"There can be no danger. The rain situation has gradually decreased. Looking at the sky, it should be clear and sunny in a few days." Wei Bingyan said.

They had come here and heard many rumors about Li Yuyan along the way. They said that this number one scholar who was dispatched by the court tried to save people from dire straits, and he and more than a dozen brave soldiers were completely submerged in the flood. Wei Bingyan was oblivious to all these words.

She didn't believe that Li Yuyan would have an accident, so she would definitely find him.

Uncle Hai was silent for a moment, and then he advised earnestly, "Young lady, wait until the cruel and merciless flood recedes before you go to look for Young Master Li."

"No!" Wei Bingyan curled her lips slightly, "Let's go back to the inn. After the face change, we will go over there."

Uncle Hai is not Old Master Wei. He has no way of persuading or stopping Wei Bingyan from doing anything.

After returning to the inn, Wei Bingyan asked Aunt Yin to change her face into a male doctor. Guan Mengxin herself knew the art of face changing, so she also changed her face into a doctor. After the four of them had lunch, they headed towards the disaster-stricken village in Huaixi, which was far away from the hustle and bustle.

Some soldiers stopped them on the way. Now the Huaixi area does not allow outsiders to enter.

Wei Bingyan made it clear that they were just doctors, ready to give the poor victims a comprehensive examination and treatment.

Although the terrible plague has been brought under control, there are still many people who have not been cured and now need doctors.

After carefully inspecting their multi-purpose first aid kit, Wei Bingyan and the others finally passed smoothly.

The closer they got to the lower part of the river, the more frightened Wei Bingyan and the others became. Almost half of the houses had been destroyed by the powerful force. On a high, lush earthen slope, there lay dozens of lifeless corpses that had been fished out of the water. On the other side, there were thin tents set up for the civilians who were trying to escape with a strong desire to survive.

The soldiers brought by the Sixth Prince took great pains to move the lifeless corpse to a place, preparing to cremate it and then bury it.

In this current climate, if these lifeless corpses are not dealt with quickly, it is estimated that the terrible plague will spread faster and faster.

Wei Bingyan and Guan Mengxin looked at each other, and saw shock and sympathy in each other's eyes.

"Let's do our work separately. I'll go see where the prince's people are." Guan Mengxin turned around and spoke softly.

They were all feeling a little depressed.

Wei Bingyan asked Aunt Yin to follow Guan Mengxin, while she herself and Uncle Hai walked towards the farmers. They were generally quite chaotic and no one paid special attention to their presence.

The court had sent several doctors to accompany Li Yuyan to Huaixi in the past. Wei Bingyan wanted to get information about Li Yuyan without leaving any trace, so she naturally had to make friends with them.

After helping a few poor patients, these doctors finally paid special attention to Wei Bingyan, a man who looked unfamiliar.

After learning that Wei Bingyan had heard from others about the tragic suffering of the civilians here and therefore wanted to come here to do good deeds and save people from dire straits, they all praised her. The doctors who were ordered to come here wanted to find a favorable opportunity to quickly get away from here, not to mention that it was beyond their expectations that some people would voluntarily come to this unfortunate corner.

Therefore, they talked about Li Yuyan, "Doctor Wang's public welfare actions are the same as those of Lord Li. Alas, it's a pity that Lord Li is so young..."

"Are you talking about the number one scholar, Lord Li? How is he?" Wei Bingyan suppressed the urgency in her heart and asked naturally.
