——How do you know the thoughts of these disaster victims so well?

Of course it was because he had been through it all.

When Yutai was flooded, epidemic disease broke out immediately, and Yutai county magistrate directly ordered the closure of the city. The victims trapped in the city had no food and were threatened by the epidemic disease. This is the same situation.

When people are in a desperate situation, they can always do many things that they would never do in the past.For example, ordinary people who used to be law-abiding would also forcibly break into government warehouses, and they would rush to rob rich people's food stores.

Of course he also participated.

Even when the prince came to the city for disaster relief at the beginning of the year, when some victims heard that the warehouse was full of grain, they thought about it and wanted to grab it at night.It was only in the end that there were too many guards in the warehouse, and even if the remaining victims were barely alive, they couldn't beat the strong soldiers, so they gave up.

Looking back on those scenes now, I still feel that I was born in a purgatory trance.

Always afraid that everything now is actually just a fantasy dream before death.

Xue Shu avoided Yin Chengyu's oppressive gaze, and still did not answer.

Seeing this, Yin Chengyu became more and more convinced that he was hiding a secret.

He suddenly leaned closer, as if whispering to Xue Shu: "If you don't tell me... Gu Ye will know sooner or later."

The two stood outside the granary, their bodies were very close, and because Yin Chengyu deliberately lowered his voice, he couldn't hear the content clearly.In the eyes of others, they only thought they were discussing things in a low voice.

Then only Xue Shu knew that the breath in his ear was full of erratic enthusiasm, and the deliberately lowered voice turned into a breathy voice with a hoarse soft hook, which penetrated through the ear orifice, but finally landed on his heart.

"Why is Your Highness so obsessed with the subject's past?"

Xue Shu raised his eyes and looked at him, clenched his hand hanging by his side into a fist, and his body was tense, showing a defensive posture.

Like a beast whose territory has been violated, it does not dare to attack, but restlessly and vigilantly lowers its body, defending the last piece of territory.

Yin Chengyu squinted at him, not missing the resistance on his face.

But for Xue Shu, he has never been a considerate person.The more Xue Shu tried to hide what he was hiding, the more he wanted to know.

In this life, he did not allow Xue Shu to keep any secrets from him.

Yin Chengyu smiled slowly, the shadow of the sun fell on his face, making his expression more serious than usual, and his phoenix eyes became narrower because of the slight squint, and the evil hidden inside was obvious.

At this time, he didn't look at all like the prince of Qingfengliangyue in front of people, but he was a bit unpredictable in his previous life of [-] years old.

"Gu doesn't like the people around him to have secrets." He raised his hand, as if to press his shoulder, but in fact, his cold fingertips brushed across the back of his neck as if nothing.Seeing that Xue Shu's whole body became more and more tense, he finished the rest of the sentence with a smile: "...especially you, do you understand?"

After finishing speaking, he withdrew the back of his hand behind his back, glanced at Xue Shu with satisfaction, and said loudly: "Officer Xue is right. Commander Hao will arrange more people around the warehouse tonight, just in case."

He spoke, and immediately went to discuss the defense of the warehouse with the commander of the capital, Hao Cheng, with his hands behind his back.

Tuliu Xue Shu stood still, his eyes fixed on his figure.

Both embarrassed and happy.

He remembered the question he had asked in Tianjin Wei again.

At that time, His Highness only said that "the anger is still there", but he never said that he didn't like it, and he never reprimanded him for it.

His Highness treats him differently from others.

Xue Shu licked his lower lip, and there was light in his eyes.

If His Highness wants to know about the rotten past that he buried deep in his heart, what should he give in exchange?

Xue Shu touched the handkerchief in his arms, and laughed softly.

Those little ambitions and extravagant hopes finally took root and sprouted and flourished in the endless longing and intentional or unintentional indulgence.

According to Xue Shu's suggestion, Yin Chengyu commanded Hao Cheng to loosen the guards on the surface, but secretly strengthened his manpower and laid a net, just waiting for the disaster victims who were hiding everywhere to show up.

That night, Yin Chengyu was awake. He, Xue Shu and others hid in the dark, and patiently waited for the rabbit that slammed into the door as time passed.

At midnight, there was finally commotion outside the warehouse.

Thirty or so people rushed up from all directions, knocked down the warehouse guards, and began banging on the door in concert.

The warehouse door was strong, and after they knocked it several times and found it was still motionless, they wanted to climb up and enter from the roof.

The first one to climb up was a thin but very nimble young man. He had just climbed onto the roof and was about to use tools to lift the tiles when he saw officers and soldiers approaching not far away.

He screamed: "No, the officers and soldiers are here!"

As soon as the rest of the people heard this, they looked around and saw hundreds of officers and soldiers surrounding them with knives and guns, and each of them was wearing a cloth towel covering his mouth and nose.

Among the thirty or so victims, there were tall young men, thin old men and young men, and even a few strong women.But no matter what age, everyone has sunken cheeks, sallow and thin face.

These people originally just wanted to grab some food at night and run away, but they didn't expect that there were officers and soldiers guarding them, so they panicked for a while.

In the panic, some victims clenched the hatchet in their hands, trying to break out of the siege by force, but the general in charge shouted loudly: "Whoever puts down the knife will not be killed."

The general shouted loudly several times, but did not attack rashly, but surrounded the people not far or near.

Seeing that they really did not intend to kill them immediately, the victims hesitated for a while.

Seeing that they had wavered, the general followed Yin Chengyu's instructions, gestured to the officers and soldiers to put away their weapons, and said loudly: "Now His Royal Highness has come to Taiyuan Mansion for disaster relief, and the relief food in this warehouse will be delivered tomorrow." Why do you need to rob again if it is distributed to the victims?"

At the end of the sentence, he pushed an old man dressed as a doctor out, and persuaded him: "Put down your weapons, and let the matter of tonight be forgotten. Come forward one by one to give the doctor a pulse. Those who have not been infected can queue up at the gate of the city, and there will be half an hour later." , and the porridge sheds at the gate of the city were set up."

The thirty or so victims looked at each other, wanting to believe but not daring to believe it.

"Is there such a good thing?"

"Isn't it another new way to catch people?"

"But when we came in, there was indeed a shed set up at the gate of the city."

"It is said that the crown prince is here, maybe the court really sent someone here..."

"..."

The victims talked quietly for a while.Although there was no immediate surrender, the atmosphere was no longer so tense.

The general repeated his previous proclamation several times, and the doctor also opened the desk and sat down behind the desk.

This doctor was originally a doctor in Tongrentang, Taiyuan Fucheng. He was quite old, and he didn't seem to be threatening.Seeing no one coming, he tore off some of the cloth that covered his mouth and nose, revealing his entire face, and said, "Someone of you secretly went to me to get medicine before, can I harm you with the officers and soldiers? Your Highness the Crown Prince I came here to relieve the disaster in person, and I won’t arrest people everywhere in the future.”

The old doctor's face was indeed recognized by many people, and after hesitating for a while, someone finally put away the weapon and stepped forward hesitantly to ask the old doctor for a pulse diagnosis.

Someone started it, and then it went smoothly.

The victims who were able to come out for activities were all in good health. After looking around and asking about it, they were all released, and officers and soldiers led them to the porridge shed outside the city gate.

Yin Chengyu looked at it, and heaved a sigh of relief: "It's finally off to a good start."

"What about the others who were caught? Take Gu to see."

——When the granary was robbed, the pharmacy hoarding medicinal materials also suffered robbers.

But looking at the reaction of the victims who robbed the granary, it seems that the two sides are not the same group of people.

Yin Chengyu put on the cloth towel smoked with wormwood before going to the pharmacy.

Because all the attention was only on the defense of the granary, I didn't expect that the pharmacy would also be burglarized. When the officers and soldiers realized it, several victims had already broken in.

In a panic, a row of medicine racks fell down, medicinal materials were scattered all over the ground, and there were six victims whose hands and feet were tied up. At this time, they were staring fiercely at Yin Chengyu and his party who came in.

Xue Shu frowned, stopped Yin Chengyu from letting him approach, and motioned for the accompanying imperial physician to come forward and take a pulse: "First, check to see if anyone is infected."

The imperial physician stepped forward to examine it carefully and shook his head.

Only then did Xue Shu order people to untie them, and said: "These people are not infected with the epidemic, but they ventured into the pharmacy to steal medicinal materials. Presumably someone in the family is sick and needs medicinal materials urgently."

Now the medicine shop in the city has been closed long ago, and the remaining medicinal materials have been swept away. If it wasn't for someone in the family who was in urgent need of medicinal materials, they would not have taken the risk of robbing the government's medicinal materials.

Several victims immediately showed panic when they heard the words.

Seeing this, Yin Chengyu's heart moved: "There are still patients infected with pimple plague in the city? Are you hiding them?"

Several people kept their mouths shut, but no one spoke.

Yin Chengyu was thinking about how to persuade them to open their mouths, but Xue Shu said again: "It's a risk to steal the medicinal materials. I think you have no medicinal materials. If you can't bring the medicinal materials back today, the patients may have to wait for death."

Some victims looked at him angrily when they heard the words, but they dared not speak out.

Xue Shu said with a calm expression, "These food and medicinal materials were originally brought in to help the victims of the disaster. If you take us there now and find out the situation, maybe our relatives still have a glimmer of life."

He picked up the medicine basket that fell on the ground, picked up the scattered medicinal materials one by one, packed them, and then stuffed the medicinal materials into the hands of the woman kneeling behind: "Rhubarb, Pu Nitrate, Zhishi, Chuanpu... this is the cure. A well-known prescription for epidemic disease, you are a doctor."

There was no doubt in his tone, he was very sure. The woman who was protected behind and kept her head down finally raised her head and looked at Yin Chengyu: "Are you really here to rescue the disaster?"

Yin Chengyu nodded: "Really."

The woman seemed to be weighing, for a long time, she bit her lip and said: "Give me two baskets of herbs, and I will take you there."

Yin Chengyu nodded slightly, and Dang Even Youfan packed the medicinal materials needed by the woman, carried the medicine basket on his back and followed her.

The woman glanced at the officers and soldiers around again. After all, she still led the way with other people.
