Mind Reading: Koi Cub brings script to save the whole family
Chapter 56: Refugees Enter the Village
Some images kept flashing through his mind.
Some are from the capital, and some are from Yujia Village.
Finally, he set his eyes on Youyou, with a complicated and puzzled expression.
"It's all wrong! It's all wrong!" He muttered in a low voice, and no one could hear it.
“How come it’s all wrong?”
More than ten years ago, he went to Beijing and learned about the Lu family and the Qiao family by chance.
Back then, the two girls in the Qiao family were not expected to live long.
The Lu family had one son and one daughter, neither of whom lived past the age of thirty.
Especially the second son of the Lu family, who would die in battle at the age of twenty.
The eldest daughter of the Lu family was plagued by illness and died of depression.
The one in front of you is the youngest daughter of the Qiao family. She has already married the second son of the Lu family and is going to Yanmen Mansion.
Taoist Xuantian had a complicated look in his eyes, because that was a battlefield.
Is it possible that the speculation from that year will come true?
But the Qiao family still has a daughter. Based on the information I inferred back then, she is probably no longer with us.
"You have an older sister, how is she now?"
Qiao Shuyuan said: "Eldest sister is fine, mother and child are safe."
Her words once again made Taoist Xuantian fall into self-doubt.
It is clear that the eldest daughter of the Qiao family will not survive March this year.
But from Qiao Shuyuan's expression and words, it seemed that the eldest daughter of the Qiao family was fine.
Taoist Xuantian was puzzled.
The fate of the Qiao family changed, and the Yu family also survived.
Is all this related to the adopted daughter of the Yu family?
Why did Yu Youyou, who was supposed to be born in a wealthy family in the county, become the adopted daughter of the Yu family?
Which part went wrong?
Qiao Shuyuan saw that Taoist Xuantian looked a little strange, so she asked, "Master, are you okay?"
Taoist Xuantian looked at her with a mysterious look in his eyes and said, "I am fine. Miss Qiao has had a lot of bad luck, but now she has overcome that hurdle. From now on, everything will go smoothly and your life will be smooth."
Qiao Shuyuan showed a happy expression: "Thank you, Taoist priest. I will invite you to stay at my house when I return to Beijing in the future."
Taoist Xuantian nodded lightly.
Seeing how familiar they were with each other, everyone couldn't help but become curious about their identities.
Zhang and Yu Lin knew Qiao Shuyuan's identity, so they were only curious about Taoist Xuantian.
For the nobles in the capital to treat him so humbly, his identity must be extraordinary.
After two hours of trekking, everyone could finally take a break.
Liu and her daughter-in-law were busy preparing lunch.
Qiao Shuyuan wanted to help but was rejected and could only help look after Youyou.
On the other side, in Songyang County.
Shen Zhiyan took the identity proof and found Magistrate Su to explain the matter of the refugees.
Magistrate Su was horrified when he heard this.
We haven't been having good times for a few days when something strange happens again.
At this moment, he had already cursed those refugees in his heart.
But he still had to smile and listen to Shen Zhiyan's arrangements.
"Sir, what are your plans?"
Shen Zhiyan quickly wrote a letter and handed it to him: "Send someone to rush it to the capital at an speed of 800 miles. At the same time, take the token from the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion to the provincial capital to mobilize food."
Magistrate Su was stunned. "Nanyang Prefecture was hit hard by the disaster, and the people have not recovered yet. The government just exempted this year's taxes, so where can we get the grain now?"
Shen Zhiyan frowned, he didn't know the situation was so urgent.
Quickly think of a response strategy in your mind.
"Do as I say! Contact the prefectural government first and report the situation in Songyang County! The prefect will definitely find a way to solve it."
"Starting today, close the city gates and leave Xiaomen to distribute porridge at the city gate tower to ensure that the refugees do not riot..."
With a thud, an officer came in, his face full of panic.
"Sir...sir...there are so many refugees outside the city!"
Shen Zhiyan's breath suddenly became low: "It's faster than I thought."
Magistrate Su was panicked and screamed, "Close the city gate quickly! Don't let them in!"
Shen Zhiyan frowned and looked at Magistrate Su, feeling strange.
Although he also ordered the city gates to be closed, for some reason he did not like the order given by County Magistrate Su.
The officer tried to run out, tumbling and crawling.
"Wait!" Shen Zhiyan stopped him.
"While closing the city gates, tell the people that Songyang County will provide porridge to the people, so they can rest assured."
"Master Su, please make the arrangements."
Magistrate Su hesitated to speak.
Shen Zhiyan frowned even more deeply: "What are you waiting for? Don't tell me that there is no food in Songyang County!"
"No matter what method you use, you must first appease the refugees outside. Otherwise, you will not be able to bear the consequences of a riot by the refugees!"
Magistrate Su couldn't help but shudder and hurried down to arrange personnel.
No matter how reluctant he was, he had to open the granary and release the grain.
Songyang County is under his jurisdiction. If anything goes wrong, no one can save him.
Orders were given one after another, and soon dozens of large pots were set up at the city gate.
Rice was added to the water and the fire at the bottom of the pot was burning high. The aroma of rice soon spread among the refugees.
The refugees flocked to the scene and were overjoyed to see water in the Baihe River.
The moment I saw the water, it was like seeing my savior.
But after drinking a few handfuls of water, although I felt full, I didn’t feel hungry.
Since there is water in Songyang County, there must be food.
They were very smart and did not go to the county town first, but instead found a nearby village.
I know that even if I go to the county town, I may not be able to get in.
As a result, the first to suffer are the surrounding villages.
These refugees were not aimless, but rather organized and disciplined.
When a group of people arrived at Yujia Village, they were puzzled to see that the village was empty.
But no one was there, and they didn't want to continue killing people.
I've made enough mistakes along the way.
However, they searched every household but could not find anything to eat.
Only the green patches in the fields prove that the village is inhabited.
Unable to find food in Yujia Village, the refugees continued to move on to the next place.
When the village is empty again, those hiding in the dark will dare to move.
"Go tell the tribe leader that the refugees have come and are leaving because they didn't find anything to eat!"
Yujia Village did not evacuate all the people, but left behind a few young men to keep an eye on the situation.
Compared with the situation in Yujia Village, the situation in other villages is not so good.
When the refugees poured in, many families had just had lunch.
The tragedy happened in just a moment.
The refugees were ferocious and the ordinary villagers could not stand up to them.
For a moment, cries, screams, and panic filled the entire village.
Dawang Village was the village where Yu Lin and others were driven away.
The whole village didn't believe that there would be refugees, and no one left.
Now it's a good thing for the refugees.
The people in Xiaowang Village were half-believing and half-doubting. Some of them went up the mountain, and some stayed in the village.
When refugees entered the village, those who stayed behind regretted their actions, while those who went up the mountain were afraid.
The refugees who entered the village not only stole food, but also killed people.
Shen Zhiyan and Magistrate Su stood on the city wall, looking at the refugees below.
"wrong!"
Magistrate Su was shocked: "What's wrong?"
Shen Zhiyan said: "The number of refugees is not right."
When we returned from Yunbai County, the number was definitely more than this.
The number of people under the city wall now is only half of the number that existed back then.
So where did the others go?
