After being forced to marry the prince

Chapter 96 It Finally Rained

"Don't worry!" Chu Wu sighed, and said softly, "Ms. Song's injury looks serious, but it's not life-threatening. Don't worry."

Hearing this, Zhao Zhi was completely relieved.

I don't know what's going on, it should be quite unusual for a prince to be a doctor, but the words from this Ninth Prince's mouth will subconsciously convince people.

Although Song Shiyin had many injuries, none of them were fatal.That Liu Wangshan mainly used torture, so he looked a little creepy, but because of this, the pain was doubled, especially for Song Shiyin, who was no match for a weak woman, and the pain was unimaginable.

Chu Wu couldn't help thinking that he should have given Liu Wangshan two more knives just now.

Zhao Zhi's face was pale all the time, and it seemed that he was injured more severely than Song Shiyin.In the end, Chu Wuxiang's two stabs were still made up by Zhao Zhi, and Gu Baiji didn't let anyone stop him, allowing him to torture him until his last breath was left.

After Song Shiyin's injuries were dealt with, the battle was already over.

Those brought by Liu Wangshan were originally mobs, greedy for life and afraid of death, fearful of the head and the tail, almost showing a one-sided trend at the beginning when they met the Gu family army, and quickly knelt down and surrendered.

After dealing with the matter in the mine, everyone quickly returned to the city with the refugees. On that day, in the huge city of Yuzhou, the cries spread from the street to the end of the street. Some people were reunited, and some family members were completely buried deep in the forest. In the mouth of Cailang.

But even so, the deathly silence of Yuzhou City finally regained some vitality.

The first thing Gu Baiji did after returning to the city was to open warehouses to release food, and open the city gates to let refugees into the city.

When they saw the granary in Yuzhou City, Gu Baiji and Chu Wuji were shocked immediately, but An Yu scolded directly.

Without him, the amount of food in Yuzhou City far exceeded the imagination of Gu Baiji and the others.

If Liu Wangshan had opened granaries to release grain at the beginning of the famine, it is no exaggeration to say that the number of starvation deaths in Yuzhou would have been reduced by more than half.

It took nearly three days to appease the victims and the people of Yuzhou.

On the third day, Liu Wangshan, who had been tossed to the point of death, was dragged to the execution ground and beheaded in front of the whole city.

On that day, it finally rained in Yuzhou City.

Accompanied by the roaring thunder, the heavy rain poured down, and the desperate people seemed to grasp a little life, and broke out into carnival after wave in the dead silence.

After Gu Baiji and the others went to Yizhuang, they found that there were already people there.

It was the kid who had been nearly run over by the horse, his mother, and a man they had brought back from the mines.

When the man saw them, he saluted deeply, "Villain Su Cheng, thank you lord and general for your kindness."

The woman also thanked and said: "The prince and the general rescued my son first, and then rescued the husband of the slave family, and even collected the corpse for the family. This is a great kindness, and the family of the women will never forget it."

Gu Baiji and Chu Wu bowed their heads slightly in return, and said: "Don't worry about what's in your job."

Su Cheng and his wife originally planned to kowtow to thank them, but after being rejected, they made up their mind to set up a longevity tablet for the two benefactors and enshrine them for life after returning home.

During this period, Song Shiyin's injury had gradually improved, and Chu Wu stood outside the screen, waiting for Zhao Zhi to change the medicine for her injury before entering the room to check her pulse for follow-up consultation.

Fortunately, Zhao Zhi took good care of him, and with a few more changes of wound medicine and a few days of decoction, he was almost healed.

Song Shiyin was leaning on the couch in front of the window, speaking more energetically.

She glanced at Zhao Zhi, Zhao Zhi understood and went to invite Gu Baiji.

"Ms. Song." Seeing Gu Baiji, Chu Wu asked with some doubts, "But what do you want to say?"

Song Shiyin nodded, thought for a while, and asked, "Your Highness, General, the current situation in Yuzhou should be very difficult, right?"

Gu Baiji nodded without hesitation, "It's difficult. Liu Wangshan's exploitation was serious before, and the people had almost no surplus food. This famine can almost cut off the vitality of the entire Yuzhou."

The food they brought, together with the food and grass from Yuzhou City, only temporarily eased the situation.

Although it has rained now, the follow-up farming and growing grain, the resettlement of refugees, and the support of those widowed and lonely are all big problems.

But according to the current national power of Jokhang and the emperor's level of care, it is almost impossible to get food, grass and money from the treasury.Before they came, although the emperor looked angry, in the final analysis, he was angry because he was being concealed, and he was afraid that if the people rebelled.Finally, when it came to the food relief, the emperor's attitude had become indifferent, as if it had nothing to do with him.

At this moment, Zhao Zhi suddenly took out a key and handed it to Song Shiyin. After Song Shiyin took it, he handed it to Chu Wu.

"Ms. Song, this is?"

"Liu Wangshan's warehouse key." Song Shiyin said, "The treasure inside is almost a mountain. It should be no problem to alleviate Yuzhou's difficulties."

"You..." Chu Wu suddenly came to his senses, admiration spontaneously arose, and he said awkwardly, "Is that why you didn't go with us before?"

Song Shiyin nodded, "My family knows how difficult Yuzhou is. Even if Liu Wangshan is removed, the situation will not be much better. This can be regarded as taking from the people and using it for the people!" Song Shiyin paused, then continued. , "Liu Wangshan has a rebellious heart, and he will definitely hoard more property, but he is too cautious, and the warehouse is directly hidden under the study."

That's why it took her so long to find it.

Chu Wu was greatly shocked. A weak woman, who can't protect herself in troubled times, can do this for the common people. How can she always hide behind Gu Baiji, and dare not move forward with no compassion?

Chu Wu bowed slightly to Song Shiyin and saluted, "Ms. Song is righteous, and Chu Wu admires her!"

Song Shiyin was startled, hurriedly propped up her body and bowed down, not daring to accept his gift, "The prince must not be so polite, I dare not be a slave!"

Gu Baiji said with a smile: "Mistress Song saved tens of thousands of people in Yuzhou, so I should respect you."

Liu Wangshan's rebellion has obviously been going on for a long time, and the property under the study is as large as half the national treasury.

Of course, the national treasury is now empty, and there is not much inventory.

But even so, it is still more than enough to rebuild Yuzhou.

In the next few days, Gu Baiji and Chu Wu kept their feet on the ground in the busy rebuilding of Yuzhou.

Now almost all the officials in Yuzhou have been arrested, but the famine is serious and there are not many people. Gu Baiji simply classified several counties into one county for management, and sent a few subordinates who are good at civil affairs to take the post of county magistrate temporarily. In the past, his responsibilities in the army were similar to that of a military adviser, so he simply stayed in the prefect's mansion and temporarily served as the prefect to handle Yuzhou's follow-up affairs on his behalf.

Lin Po acted straightforwardly, the first thing was to get rid of Liu Wangshan's beauties who were comparable to the three thousand beauties in the emperor's harem. Those who had a place to go took some money and left by themselves, and those who had no place to go were easy.Now Yuzhou is full of waste, and there are places where people need to work everywhere. Both men and women can find a job, just find a place to contribute to earn money.

As for the others, we will make plans after Gu Baiji returns to Beijing to report to the Emperor Ming.

After a few more days, everything had initially settled down, and everyone packed their luggage and prepared to leave for Beijing.

On the day of leaving, the people in the city stepped out one after another. If the Gu family army hadn't stopped him, they would have kowtowed to see him off.

The gates of the city are now wide open, and although the pedestrians coming and going are not compared to those in the prosperous age, they are also a little more angry.With one Xi one tuan one √.

After leaving the city gate, he saw a carriage waiting by the side of the road from afar.

Standing beside the carriage were Zhao Zhi and Song Shiyin, Song Shiyin was holding a child in his arms.
