The whole village is fleeing famine, fortunately I have a concubine system

Shen Shiqing himself strode into the alley.

Then I saw a child of seven or eight years old, squatting on the ground, holding his head and crying.

His clothes were tattered and he looked like a beggar wandering on the street.

When faced with a thin child, people can't help but relax their vigilance.

Shen Shiqing glanced around and then walked in front of the child.

Asking the crying child:

"Kid, what are you doing here?"

The child heard someone talking and slowly raised his head.

Revealing a face that was paler than most people.

The tears never stopped.

"Brother, I can't find my way home.

Can you help me find my home?"

As he said this, he wanted to reach out and grab Shen Shiqing's hand.

But Shen Shiqing quickly avoided it.

There was a gleam of malice in the boy's eyes, but he still spoke to Shen Shiqing in a crying voice.

I want him to stay with me for a while longer.

It would be best if the plague could be transmitted to him.

But Shen Shiqing kept looking at the boy vigilantly even though he was talking to him.

But he always kept a distance of four steps away, alert to everything around him.

He did not let down his guard just because he saw no one nearby.

Seeing that Shen Shiqing was not fooled, the boy wanted to give up and leave.

But he was stopped by Shen Shiqing.

“Wait, since you said you couldn’t find your way home.

Then why don't you come with me to the government office? It will definitely help them find it faster."

When the boy heard that Shen Shiqing was going to take him to the yamen, his true colors were instantly exposed.

At such a young age, he had a ferocious look on his face and took out a dagger from his waist.

Stabbed straight at Shen Shiqing.

However, Shen Shiqing was prepared and reached out to hold the boy's knife-holding hand.

However, the boy did not panic at this time, but had a strange smile on his face.

"Hey, hey, you're in trouble!"

Shen Shiqing didn't know what was happening before he was pulled back several steps by a strong force.

At this time, he had already let go of the boy's hand.

The boy saw Shen Shiqing being dragged by someone and turned and ran away.

He had just run two steps when he was knocked to the ground by a pulse pillow.

"Little guy, are you running?

Why don't you run away?

A vibrant female voice sounded in Shen Shiqing's ears.

Then Shen Shiqing saw a figure running in front of the boy.

He kicked the boy's legs twice, and then said to the boy:

“You’ve been causing trouble in the city lately, right?

Now I have caught you."

As she spoke, the woman turned her head and glanced at Shen Shiqing.

It seemed as if he wanted to see who this innocent passerby was.

When he realized that it was not someone he knew, he lowered his head and prepared to take the boy away.

At this time, Shen Shiqing was staring at the girl blankly.

Although it had been six years, he still recognized the girl at first sight.

It was the person who saved me back then.

But now looking at that girl, it seems that she no longer recognizes me.

Shen Shiqing couldn't help but take two steps forward, wanting to get closer to Wang Junruo.

But after taking just two steps, Wang Junruo urgently stopped him.

"Stop, stop, stop, just stand there and don't move.

Why do you want to see everything?

Don’t leave later, follow me to the yamen.

By the way, get some medicine to drink."

Shen Shiqing listened to Wang Junruo's words and nodded without any objection.

Then he followed Wang Junruo to the yamen.

When they saw people from the yamen, they all called her "Young Miss".

“This child is the one who has been spreading the plague in the city recently.

You take him away and interrogate him to find out who ordered him to do this.

Tell my dad by the way."

Sun He nodded, then took the boy away.

At this time, Wang Junruo saw Shen Shiqing following beside her.

I don’t know if he has been infected with the plague, so I have to let him stay for observation.

Let’s see what happens tomorrow?

But I still gave him a bowl of heat-clearing and detoxifying medicine today to see if it can be prevented.

After bringing the person to the isolation point of the government office, he looked at Shen Shiqing and asked:

"Well, where are you from?

You look unfamiliar and don't seem to be from here.

Why are you here at this hour instead of staying at home? "

Wang Junruo looked at Shen Shiqing who was in a daze and asked.

At this time, Shen Shiqing finally came back to his senses from the one-sided joy of reunion after a long separation.

I started talking about serious matters with Wang Junruo.

He picked up the token and let Wang Junruo take a look at it.

"I am the reinforcement sent this time. I come here now to see if you need any help."

When the others heard Shen Shiqing's words, they all laughed disdainfully.

There was an elderly man who couldn't stop laughing.

After laughing, she wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes and said to Shen Shiqing:

“When snot gets into your mouth, you know to blow it.

It has been such a long time. If it weren’t for Doctor Huo and Miss Wang who developed a prescription.

If you come here now, we will be dead.

Now we have recovered from our illnesses and your reinforcements have arrived.

So this is what you mean by reinforcements.

This time, I, an old man, have seen it all.”

Shen Shiqing frowned when he heard the old man's words.

It wasn’t because of the old man’s unreasonable words, but because of the meaning behind his words.

What does a long time mean?

What does it mean to be cured?

Is it possible that no one from the government has come to rescue?

He didn't come from Kyoto yet.

After winning the battle against China and Mongolia, his father Shen He returned to Kyoto with gold, silver, jewelry, captives, and the sixth princess.

He continued to guard the border, fearing that the Chinese and Mongolian people would come to their senses and launch a counterattack.

We also have to be wary of several other small countries.

After several years, they were finally defeated.

Only then did he prepare to return to Beijing with his army.

When passing by Liucheng, we discovered that there was an earthquake.

The surrounding people suffered severely from the disaster, so Shen Shiqing decided to postpone his trip back to Beijing.

Saving the people is important.

The main force was left there, and a team of advance soldiers was sent out to check everywhere.

See where the disaster has reached.

He rode forward on his horse, wanting to see for himself how wide the scope of this incident was.

I thought it was just a matter of the past few days, but when I arrived in Wudu I discovered there was still a plague.

And from what the old man said just now, this disaster should last for a long time.

However, some people knew about the disaster but did not report it, so the higher-ups did not receive any information about the disaster at all.

There were no arrangements for disaster relief.

It will become more and more serious and even develop into a plague.

But fortunately, Wu Du has it under control.

Otherwise, the consequences will be disastrous.

There have been examples of plagues before, and in the end the entire city was empty.

The emperor ordered with tears in his eyes to burn the city.

The fire burned for three days and three nights without being extinguished. It was a true tragedy.

But that was a thing of the past.

Fortunately, I got it under control this time.
