[The introduction in this chapter is relatively clear.Subscription support~~~It's best to leave a message~~It doesn't matter if you shoot bricks~ But you have to be gentler and shoot...]

Seeing that Su Yu obviously walked out without wanting to talk to her, Lu Xiuyue also knew that it was really difficult for a girl under 15 to accept such a big change.

In desperation, he could only find out about the situation from the little maid who was serving him.Speaking of the little maid, Lu Xiuyue was probably the one who voluntarily came to take care of Su Yu.

The little girl is only 12 years old, her name is Sheng Sheng, she has a delicate appearance and a sense of agility.Moreover, this girl is the most diligent, well-behaved and cute when she speaks and does things, which can be regarded as Su Yu's favorite.

"That is to say, I've been in a coma for three days?" Lu Xiuyue was propped up by Sheng Sheng and sat on the bed. The wound behind her still hurt a little. When she moved, she felt as if her whole body was about to fall apart.

Sheng Sheng stood at the head of the bed, with low eyebrows, "Yes, but you are awake now, as long as you can rest in peace, there is nothing serious."

Lu Xiuyue frowned and continued to ask, "Tell me what's going on here now."

Sheng Sheng pondered for a while, and was still a little suspicious about the origin of this person, but seeing Miss Su caring about him so much, he knew that he was not a bad person, and he even blocked a knife for Miss Su, so he must be sincere to Miss Su OK.

"Since the spring of last year, the entire Northeast has been severely drought. Because Liucheng has always been attached to Sucheng, seeing that Sucheng has started to stockpile grain, the county guards and wealthy businessmen in Liucheng have also started to stockpile grain. Originally, the common people I don't think it's a big drought for a few years. After all, there has always been plenty of rain here. Although the land is dry, as long as the wells are deep, there is no need to worry about drinking water and enough food, so the people here are beginning to be careless. Already." Washington paused, raised his eyes and glanced lightly at the man leaning on the bed, there didn't seem to be much expression on his face.

"And then?" Seeing that Sheng Sheng stopped talking, Lu Xiuyue raised her head and asked.

"Then last winter, the rich merchants and county guards in this city all ran away, and the gates of Sucheng over there were still closed. The refugees in Liucheng saw that they were left alone and had no food, so they went to Sucheng. Help. At first, Su Cheng was unwilling to help, but later Miss Su spoke up. After we arrived in Liucheng, she gave us half of the food in Su Cheng. After she came, she started looking for food, so she just left the city Something happened." As if thinking of those who died, a trace of grief crossed Sheng Sheng's face.

Great disasters make people grow.Lu Xiuyue could already see the seriousness on the faces of these children.

After being silent for a while, he smiled at Sheng Sheng: "Can you help me find Xiaoyu again? I have something to say to her."

Sheng Sheng shook his head, with embarrassment in his eyes: "No, Miss Su hates being disturbed when she is working, so you can ask her when she comes back at night."

Hearing what Sheng Sheng said, Lu Xiuyue didn't force her anymore, and nodded, "Then go and get me a glass of water, I'll take a rest later, and I want to go outside for a walk."

Sheng Sheng nodded and went to the side to get busy.

It’s already almost May sky. At this time of the year, Sioux City would be full of peach blossoms, and this place would be full of green willows. But this year is still a dry year, even if the willows have taken out their silk buds, they are still a little withered. Sense of defeat.

He walked slowly into the yard, knowing that he was injured now, so he couldn't make trouble for Su Yu, he could only wait for the injury to heal before thinking of a solution.

Since Su Yu came back that day, he didn't close his eyes very much, because every time he closed his eyes, he would see Wither's bright eyes telling him to leave quickly.

It was from that day that Su Yu felt that he could be so strong.Later, she never shed a single tear.But she knew that her heart was about to die of pain.

So she closed the city gate tightly to prevent outsiders from taking advantage of it. At the same time, she mobilized all forces to search for spies between Liucheng and Sucheng.In a few days, she really found one, but this person was very stubborn, and soon after he was caught, he committed suicide by taking poison.

Su Yu felt that the reason why these people didn't let in a large number of spies when the city gates were still open was that on the one hand, they probably couldn't completely take down these two cities. It was even more revealed; the second is that they planned more, so naturally they had to take their time.

As for the outsiders, if they are civilians, they will let them in. If they are officials, they may all be killed when the moon is dark and the wind is high.Before Su Yu got the news about Lu Xiuyue from his own people, that's why he survived.

Luckily, Lu Xiuyue met her, so she might have a life to live.

As she was walking on the street, she saw those people looking at her with indescribable eyes, which seemed to be gratitude, but also resentment and fear.Su Yu knew that her heart had already been turned into a stone. After the spy committed suicide by taking poison, she beheaded the body and hung it on the tower as a warning.

But she looked again, although these people were not full to eat, they would not die of starvation. Those doctors had all received benefits from Su Yu to keep these refugees clean while the plague raged.

So now Su Yu has only two ways to go: one, rush out and get in touch with the court; two, go to Bingcheng to get rescue.

But both paths are difficult to walk, the killers outside always want to take Su Yu's life, and the soldiers in Bingcheng may not listen to Su Yu's own words.How can I do?
Just because she is the richest man in Sioux City and shoulders the responsibility of helping the people of Sioux City, now she has to shoulder the entire border?
Seeing Su Yu's dignified expression, the people next to him knew that this woman's sleeplessness for several days was already the limit, so they couldn't help saying to Su Yu: "Miss Su, please go back and rest, now our food is still available. It can last for a period of time, and the fortifications of the city wall have also been strengthened by us, so don't worry anymore, what should we do if your body collapses?"

Su Yu also knew that this person was doing it for her own good, and she really didn't want anyone to die because of her.These people don't complain, she, Su Yu, blames herself.Even if she was not at fault, even if those people were not killed by her, why did she rely on other people's lives to survive?
In the past few days, she also wanted to understand that only by saving her life can she go to revenge, and only by saving her life can she be redeemed.She will make those people regret what they have done!
"Okay." Su Yu's brows showed a tired look, and now she still looks like a young girl.Rubbing the corners of her brows slightly, she smiled at the man and said, "Just follow me back first, let's discuss in the long run."

When I went back, I saw Lu Xiuyue sitting outside, but it wasn't cold in the courtyard, so it would be good to let him bask in the sun, so Su Yu didn't stop him.When Sheng Sheng saw Su Yu came back, he hurried up to greet him, trying to pour water for Su Yu.

Su Yu did not agree: "Although there is no shortage of water now, if the drought continues like this, there is no guarantee that there will be no water one day, so you don't have to help me make tea, go get busy, my second brother and I have something to say .”

When Sheng Sheng heard what Su Yu said, he retreated obediently.Lu Xiuyue saw that Su Yu sat down beside her indifferently, even though she called her second brother in her mouth, but there was no warmth at all, she naturally felt a little baffled.

He asked softly: "Why, are you still in a bad mood now? We are so separated from me, why do we have a marriage contract?"

Su Yu laughed at herself, and looked at Lu Xiuyue with neither joy nor sorrow: "You still say you have a marriage contract with me?"

Seeing Su Yu like this, Lu Xiuyue felt even more puzzled in her heart, and raised her eyebrows a little: "Isn't it?"

Su Yu doesn't want to mention this at all now, because she gets angry when she thinks about it, but this Lu Xiuyue still saved her life, that is, she shouldn't blame him at all, and she really doesn't have the right to go I'm sorry, after all, she never thought of marrying him!
"I don't want to mention this right now, you'd better rest, I'll go somewhere else." Su Yu said, and was about to stand up, but Lu Xiuyue refused.

Regardless of the fact that he was still injured, he quickly grabbed Su Yu's arm with his hand: "What's going on? Xiaoyu, if you want to lose your temper with me, I can accept it, but at least you Are you going to tell me why?"

Su Yu felt that the string of rationality in his mind was being pulled over and over again. He shook off Lu Xiuyue's hand fiercely, and said in a cold voice, "You still ask me why? You still ask me why you have done things yourself. Well, I will tell you right now that I knew about your marriage to the daughter of the Minister of the Dynasty! Although I agreed to this marriage before because I didn’t want to delay your exam, but now you are not only married to other Woman, do you still want to come back and lie to me again? I'm sorry, what I Su Yu hates the most is a man like you who enjoys the blessings of everyone!"

Hearing Su Yu's words, Lu Xiuyue's hand slowly dropped down, her eyes filled with disbelief: "You... Didn't you say that this city has long been unable to contact the imperial court?"

Su Yu smiled bitterly, but looked at Lu Xiuyue without showing any weakness, "Why, I was lucky, my people were civilians, so those people didn't want to cause too much trouble before, so they didn't kill them. Second brother, I know Proper, one size is one size, you saved my life, I am very grateful, if you want my life now, you can take it, but if you want me to marry you, don't even think about it! "

Lu Xiuyue's body is trembling like an old sieve. Su Yu can find out that he has blocked the news of this matter?What's more, it was found out under the blockade of killers. Is she just lucky, or what is the reason! ?

Seeing that Lu Xiuyue stopped talking, Su Yu calmed down a little, sighed and sat down again: "I still know what you want to say to me now, you want to take your family and me out of here. But I will tell you clearly now, if Su Cheng is here, then Su Yu is here, if Su Cheng is dead, then Su Yu is dead!"
