After transmigrating into the book, the prime minister always wants to farm with me.

Chapter 216 The Young Master Has No Intention of Returning to the Capital

Upon hearing Pei Yuanjun's words and seeing the expressions of agreement on everyone's faces, Pei Puwen suddenly burst into tears.

A resolute glint flashed in his eyes as he scrambled to his feet and rammed his head against the rocks behind him. Everyone cried out, "Puwen, Uncle Puwen..."

Pei Yuanjun and Qi Yunran quickly turned around and grabbed Pei Puwen from the left and right.

The village headman, also drenched in a cold sweat, stepped forward and patted Pei Puwen's shoulder with a heavy heart: "Don't be so impulsive as to seek death. It wasn't easy for you to survive this time. If you die too, your branch of the family will truly be extinct! How can you face your ancestors if you die!"

"Ah...ah...Village head, what's the point of me living?" Qi Yunran and Pei Yuanjun released Pei Puwen, and he hugged the village head and cried bitterly!

The village head patted him on the back: "It's good that you cried. It's already a great blessing that you survived this time. Cherish and respect life. You're only in your thirties, you can still have children! Don't do anything rash! Otherwise, your family line will truly end!"

The village head couldn't help but wipe away tears. All they had lost were their fields and houses. The loss of people like this left everyone feeling both saddened and somewhat relieved. Fortunately, they had followed Dalang's men, otherwise they would be the ones lying buried in the ground now.

I felt a mix of lingering fear and relief.

The villagers fainted several times upon seeing Pei Puwen crying so heartbreakingly.

He immediately realized that compared to life, other material possessions were insignificant.

While alive, there are endless possibilities; once dead, there is truly nothing left.

Pei Yuanjun ordered the Qingyun Dam to be reinforced and the area below it to be filled in. The iron ore inside had been almost completely mined out, with almost nothing left.

Pei Yuanjun sent word back to the Emperor for a decision, and also wrote to the Emperor that he wished to stay in Qingtan County to continue recuperating.

Shi An couldn't understand Pei Yuanjun's series of actions. Was the young master not planning to return to the capital?

So he sent the master and mistress to the capital for the sake of the mistress?
Qi Yunran said after everyone quieted down, "Peijiawan Village suffered heavy losses this time, and the imperial court's disaster relief grain has not yet arrived. Please bear with it for a few days. The county government's grain is not enough for everyone. The surrounding villages have also suffered from the disaster to varying degrees, so the grain they have received is limited. Please don't worry."

Qi Yunran's family also ran out of food. Although Peijiawan Village suffered the most severe losses, the surrounding villages all grew tribute rice. Half of it was given to the imperial court, and the other half was sold to earn money for household expenses. They bought coarse rice and other grains from the town to eat! Due to the flood, there were also landslides of varying degrees in Qingtan County, so the grain had not yet been transported in.

Shi An, along with his men and Liang Yusheng, the son of the county magistrate, had already gone to the landslide site in Qingtan County to clear the obstacles blocking the road.

Hopefully they can open the road soon.

This landslide did stop those with ulterior motives. The man in black saw that the only road leading into Qingtan County was blocked by large blue stones and mud.

"Chief, what do we do?"

Suddenly, a "clanging" sound rang out, and the leader of the men in black waved his hand, causing the people behind him to suddenly disappear.

Just then, "Bang...bang..." several large blue stones were pushed aside by the guards dressed as ordinary people.

A narrow passage was revealed. Shi An and Liang Yusheng exchanged a glance, their eyes flashing with joy!

"Dig quickly, the tunnel is open!"

"Yes!" Seeing hope, everyone buried their heads in digging with renewed vigor.

Shi An's eyes suddenly sharpened as he looked at the large blue stone to the due south!
The guards immediately noticed something amiss, and when they saw a group of men in formal attire dressed in black, they immediately looked at them warily.

"Who are you?" Shi An gripped the long sword in his hand tightly.

The leader of the men in black narrowed his eyes, recognizing Shi An beside Pei Yuanjun. Not seeing Pei Yuanjun, he immediately wanted to teach them a lesson.

They suffered so many losses of loyal soldiers last time, and now their lord has to punish them severely.
