Quick-Crossing Raiders: Black-bellied Female Matches Want to Counterattack

Chapter 25 The Tsundere Boy Is the Emperor (10)

This is the suburban official road not far from the city of Jinzhou. There are basically no vehicles and horses passing by. Most of them are refugees fleeing from the disaster. The worst thing is... there are many corpses lying there.

All of them were sallow and thin, and they didn't even have a single piece of good clothes on them, they were all tattered, and their expressions were numb.

He escaped from the flood, but died on the road because of not having enough food and contracting other diseases.

And Liu Jinxi and Lai Wanzhou are very conspicuous on this road, perhaps because they look extraordinary, and the clothes they are wearing are made of high-quality brocade.

All of a sudden, almost all the victims rushed towards them when they saw them.

Almost without any reminder, Liu Jinxi and Lai Wanzhou consciously brought their dry food to the victims.

"Come on, give us something to eat."

"The two sons are asking for something to eat."

……

Soon, the dry food they brought was all distributed, and nothing could be solved at all.

This is also expected.

Those who got it thanked and left quickly, while those who didn't get it could only pat their bellies and walk away alone.

"This food...hasn't arrived yet?"

Liu Jinxi looked towards the boat, she knew that before she came to the boat, she specially allocated a lot of money to buy grain and transport it to Jinzhou, but until now, there is no sign of it.

The only possibility is that it didn't arrive or someone stopped it.

Lai Banzhou didn't answer her, but asked an old man who had received dry food: "When did the flood start?"

Hearing this, the old man's eyes were moistened a lot, and he said bitterly: "It's a crime! Just a few months ago, no one took care of it, and several villages were flooded. The officials in Jinzhou refused to report it. Until now, even the city of Jinzhou has arrived. I can’t stop, the water comes and retreats, retreats and comes again.”

Liu Jinxi was surprised, Lai Wanzhou also looked at her, their eyes met.

They all guessed right, this matter was played by someone.

And Liu Jinxi was even more confused, and asked the system in his heart: "The system...why didn't the original plot of this incident be mentioned?"

Soon, the system gave a reasonable explanation.

"It's like this... The plot is dominated by Mu Wuxian, and it is impossible to write everything in the plot. Once you can't find it, there is nothing."

Such an important thing is not written out...

When Mu Yu arrived at that time, he didn't find this problem, which meant that someone had already covered it up.

"You two sons, are you going to enter Jinzhou City? But you must not enter. Now that the water recedes and comes, it comes and retreats. Only the adult whose residence is on a higher ground can be spared. But he will never I will let you in, unless..." The old man waved his hands, as if trying to stop them.

"Unless what...?"

"Unless... there are 1000 taels."

Liu Jinxi frowned, who is it, my lord?Still an official, it takes 1000 taels to help the victims with the imperial salary?

How can ordinary people get 1000 taels?

"Who is that lord? Haven't the people sent by the imperial court arrived yet?" Lai Wanzhou's face was a little ugly, and he opened his mouth slowly.

The old man gritted his teeth and shook his head desperately, seeming to be a bit resentful: "That lord is the prefect Zheng who manages the entire Jinzhou. As for the person sent by the imperial court, I have never heard of it these days."

As soon as he heard about this Zheng Taishou, Lai Wanzhou's eyes were cold, with a little murderous intent beating.

Liu Jinxi sensed that the boat was in the wrong mood, so he quickly thanked the old man, took the boat's hand and left.

"The most urgent thing now is to go to the city to see the situation, that Zheng Taishou, so we can meet."

Liu Jinxi also came to save the boat with a real heartache. This age has shouldered too many responsibilities. He saw the suffering of the people and the inaction of the officials, but he didn't know it before.

It should be self-blame.

Lai Wanzhou's expression made people unable to see anything, but there was an undercurrent surging in his eyes.He walked forward without saying a word, and Liu Jinxi followed him.

Looking at the appearance of the people around him, Liu Jinxi felt distressed, and said in a low voice that could be heard by each other: "Your Majesty, no matter what... I will always follow you."

Lai Wanzhou didn't show anything on his face, but secretly held her hand even tighter.

... At this time, expressing loyalty can indeed win the favor of Lai to save the boat.

But Liu Jinxi really hoped that he wouldn't blame himself so much.In order to help him defend the world, and also in order not to see him like this.

The original owner...presumably would have done the same.

It's a pity that she is too clumsy to express her loyalty and make people unable to perceive her loyalty.

Liu Jinxi's eyes fell on Wan Zhou, his eyes were a little complicated.

……

Sure enough, as the old man said, the situation in the city is that the water comes and recedes, but it happened that they arrived just after the water receded.

The water receded... The tragedy in the city also appeared.

Leaving aside the destruction of the house, it was a mess, and corpses could be seen everywhere, a little swollen from soaking, emitting a foul smell.

Rao Liu Jinxi had seen too many, and felt his stomach churn after seeing this scene.

Coming to hold the boat, his heart sank even more, his eyes flashed a cold light, and he said coldly: "When I find that Zheng Taishou, I will never forgive him lightly."

"According to the topography of the city, the highest point should be in the north." Liu Jinxi's eyes showed hesitation, she hesitated, the water will return soon.

If you don't find it quickly, I'm afraid they will all be submerged.

But it happened that Liu Jinxi was a road idiot, and so was the original owner, what a coincidence.

She can only rely on to pull the boat.

Now that Wanzhou is emotionally unstable, Liu Jinxi is really afraid that he will find that prefect Zheng immediately and kill him immediately.

Young people are impulsive.

Soon, Liu Jinxi realized that her worries were unnecessary.

Zheng Taishou's mansion is not so much a mansion as a palace built in this city.

The shining glazed tiles emit dazzling golden light in today's sunny weather. There is a plaque of golden nanmu on the vermilion gate, on which it seems that a famous calligrapher has outlined the two characters of "prefect".

There are towering old trees outside the mansion, and there are many century-old trees not far away.

The trees resist the water, even if there is a little water damage outside the mansion, and some roadblocks made to resist the water, they are not submerged.

Then some small river channels were specially dug to draw the water back.

This trick protects oneself, but indirectly harms the people.

The gate was closed tightly, and a servant guarding the gate outside the mansion was dozing off, not noticing anyone coming.

Liu Jinxi looked towards the boat, frowning tightly, asking for his opinion.

Is it to enter or not?

Come to hold the boat without saying a word, pull out the sword on his waist, turn his wrist, a sword edge is going straight to the servant guarding the door, but it is deflected, inserted on the door, and there is a "ding" sound, which makes people feel painful Awake.

The servant woke up instantly, seeing the sword so close to him, he fell down in fright.

After calming down a little, I found the two people in front of me, and shouted boldly: "Where did they come from! How dare... How dare... Do you know who my master is?"

Liu Jinxi didn't need to come to Wanzhou to answer, Liu Jinxi answered first, pursed his lips with a smile: "I know...but...do you want to do it again?" He raised the sword in his hand and let the servant I was so scared that I kowtowed and said no.

In fact, even if Liu Jinxi has the memory of the original owner and martial arts, she is not very proficient, so she is just trying to scare her by what she did before she came to pull the boat.

What she did, attracted Lai Wanzhou to look slightly sideways, and even Lai Wanzhou himself didn't realize that there was even a little pampering.
