Chapter 183
Chu Qingyun's eyes suddenly darkened: "Qiu Chi, look, who is here."
Elder Wei calmed down and said as calmly as possible: "Qiu Chi, before a great mission comes down from the sky, we always have to suffer some hardships. The body is just a skin. No matter how much Shanghai there is, it shouldn't affect our minds."
Chu Qiuchi sat up suddenly, and the quilt slipped off his face: "Skin? Sir, don't be joking, such a dirty body is attached to my body alive, how can it not be affected?"
Old Wei's face was full of heartache, but Chu Qingyun was overjoyed that the child finally spoke.
Before that, she and Zhuang Chengru tried their best, but they didn't succeed.
"Old Wei, say a little more, say a little more."
Old Wei couldn't bear it, but continued to speak: "Son, do you know how many people starve to death in Xijian now?"
"A five-month-old baby starved to death because he couldn't get his mother's milk."
"There are no crops in the fields, and scenes of farmers cutting their wrists in the fields to pray for rain can be found everywhere."
"During Lin's relief, people beat each other to death for a little food. Have you ever seen it?"
……
"Compared to them, you are full of food, warm in clothes, and still alive, with countless expensive medicines delivered to your house." Wei Lao choked up and said, "You are not the worst, what reason is there to escape?"
Chu Qiuchi's absent-minded eyes slowly focused, and there was a mere brilliance in the originally dark eyes. Although the eyes were full of sadness, Chu Qingyun almost jumped up excitedly.
"Qiu Chi, get well soon, my sister can't take care of so much alone. The eldest brother is trying his best to stabilize the situation in Xijian, but after all, the eldest brother is good at business, and he is not good at dealing with such things as hunger and order."
Old Wei hurriedly answered, "Qing Yun told me to come back in a hurry. I don't know what kind of chaos Xijian has become. If you want, you can go back with Teacher Wei."
Chu Qiuchi's eyes lit up. Every day he was in Zhongzhou, he could always think of the disgusting experience that day, and every minute and every second was torture.
He looked at Chu Qingyun and asked with his eyes.
Chu Qingyun nodded with difficulty: "That's fine, I'll let Cheng Ru go with you, and I'll show my brother how his leg is recovering."
Chu Qiuchi nodded slowly.
Elder Wei and Chu Qingyun walked out of the house.
Chu Qingyun said gratefully: "You still have to go out, this child will obey your words besides the mother."
Elder Wei sighed: "I'd rather go back to when he pulled my beard than see him like this."
"Maybe I won't be able to go back again." Chu Qingyun said with regret in her eyes, "It's hard for the old man, and because of persuading him, he made up so many lies."
Old Wei suddenly paused: "What lie?"
"Xijian has been full of crops these past few years, what you just said..." Chu Qingyun's words became weaker and weaker, because he saw that Wei Lao's expression was not right, and immediately realized that what Wei Lao said was true, not joke.
His heart was shocked: "The situation you said is actually true?"
"Qiuyi is so busy right now, I guess I forgot to ventilate you." Wei Lao was excited: "This year, there is no water in Xijian, and last year's stock was controlled by a few big households, who drove up the price to terrible prices, and starved to death on the road. "
"Your elder brother Chu Qiuyi has already opened a granary to help the disaster. Unfortunately, the Lin family's granary can't satisfy so many people. There will be bloodshed every day. Xijian is now in chaos."
Chu Qingyun's frown became deeper and deeper: "Doesn't the King of the West Tomb know?"
Old Wei shook his head: "The King of the West Tomb has never cared about the affairs of Xijian, and he has a name for nothing. Although Xiao Er is the governor, he has no real military power in his hands. Relying on official authority to suppress, those families will only obey and disobey."
Chu Qingyun's face became darker and darker, and she stood up suddenly: "Old Wei, Qingyun will arrange for Qiu Chi's departure at night, and there is something urgent now."
Elder Wei probably knew Chu Qingyun's intentions, and hurriedly said, "The King of the Western Tomb has a bad temper, so don't confront him head-on."
Chu Qingyun didn't speak, obviously she didn't listen at all.
……
At the gate of the Lu Mansion, Chu Qingyun barged in arrogantly. Shen Xing, who was in the stable beside him, ran hard and jogged, but couldn't catch up with Chu Qingyun. I don’t shy away from hating it, it seems that a good thing is coming.”
A voice suddenly came from behind: "What's wrong, something good is coming."
Shen Xing was taken aback: "My lord, you scared me to death."
"But... why are you here? Don't you have an appointment with Miss Chu?"
Lu Jinzhou: "What appointment, why don't you know." His expression changed suddenly: "Which direction did he go?"
Shen Xing's fingers froze suddenly, and he pointed in the direction: "It seems to be heading for the prince's courtyard."
Lu Jinzhou disappeared instantly: "If you didn't say it earlier, it's over."
At this time, Chu Qingyun has rushed into the study of the West Tomb King in a hurry.
The King of the West Tomb looked at her angrily, and was a little strange: "Why are you here, who is bullying you?"
"I'll make the decision for you."
Chu Qingyun said coldly: "No need, Qingyun can't afford the prince to call the shots."
The King of the Western Tomb frowned when he heard her strange ambiguity: "You girl, you have such a temper, just speak up and don't insinuate."
Chu Qingyun said coldly: "Why is the prince indifferent to the matter of Xijian?"
"On weekdays, I understand that it is wise to protect one's life, but it is a matter of life and death for the common people. Is the prince so cold-blooded?"
The face of the King of the West Tomb suddenly changed. He was unwilling to carry any gossip, so he never participated in the affairs of Xijian. As time passed, the people below stopped reporting.Can this also be called cold-blooded?
"Speak clearly, how cold-blooded is this king."
"Inaction is cold-blooded." Chu Qingyun said excitedly: "I thought the general was passionate and unwilling to participate in the court battle, but I didn't think so.
As soon as the words fell, the door frame was knocked open: "Qingyun, don't talk nonsense, my father is not such a person."
"No?" Chu Qingyun looked at him coldly: "Bandits are rampant in the mountains of Xijian and Zhongzhou, and the West Tomb King also took care of it?"
"Xijian has suffered a drought this year, and the farmers cannot survive. Does the King of the West Tomb want to take care of it?"
The face of the West Tomb King turned green again: "Drought?"
The entire Xijian has always had a lot of rain and lush vegetation, how could it be?
"Qingyun, father doesn't know about this at all, even I just heard about it." Chu Qingyun was stunned: "How could the King of the Western Tomb not know? That's his jurisdiction, don't try to shirk it."
"I do not……"
Before Lu Jinzhou could finish his sentence, he was interrupted by the King of the West Tomb: "Young girl Chu is right, it is under my jurisdiction, and I should be responsible. I will definitely handle this matter properly."
Chu Qingyun's constantly heaving chest slowly slowed down: "I hope the prince will keep his word."
