"Qing Er, I am not worried that you will implicate me, rather, Yizhou is really too dangerous."
Yan Yuan still wanted to persuade her, but it was as if Liu Ruo Qing had made up her mind. She continued to look at Yan Yuan: "I know that the Yizhou is dangerous, and if something happened to you over there, I don't know if I can endure it. Yan Yuan, you have experienced such a life and death situation before, you should understand, that if something happened to you, I simply cannot endure it!"
Her eyes glimmered as she looked at Yan Yuan with tears. She said these unwavering words, making it impossible for Yan Yuan to say any words of rejection.
"Fine, then promise me that no matter what, I will follow by my side and not run around."
In the end, Yan Yuan could only reluctantly agree.
When Liu Ruo Qing heard Yan Yuan's agreement, a smile suddenly appeared on her face. She held Yan Yuan's arm and said obediently, "I will definitely listen to you, I'm not a child."
"Humph!" Even children are more obedient than you! "
Yan Yuan unhappily let out a cold snort, and lightly poked her head.
The two of them packed their luggage, and the next day, they immediately left the capital and headed for Bajun City.
Two days after they left the capital, the capital had already prepared a relief food, and Xu Lu, a general from the Western Mountain Camp, personally escorted them to Yizhou.
The Yizhou was located in the northeast direction of the Jindu, it was not far away, but it was close. By the time Yan Yuan and his wife rushed over to the Yizhou, it was already ten days later.
Before coming here, they had already mentally prepared themselves, but when they saw this scene with their own eyes, their hearts were still filled with great discomfort.
Although the flood had already subsided, the two sides of the road outside Yizhou were filled with suffering commoners. There were also some corpses that had not been cleaned up in time that were already swollen by the water and could not help but come over.
Liu Ruo Qing stared at the corpses that had been soaked in water before and took a deep breath. She then raised her foot, and started to walk towards the corpses.
Her arm was grabbed, and she turned her head around, at a loss. She saw Yan Yuan looking at her anxiously, "Be careful, don't go over there."
With that, he saw Liu Ruo Qing's face becoming terrifyingly pale, her brows suddenly tightened: "Why do you look so ugly?"
"Ah?" Is there? "
Unconsciously, she touched her cheek. It was so cold that it felt like she was touching a block of ice.
"Maybe it's because I'm not used to seeing this kind of situation all of a sudden."
She found a suitable reason to answer. The feeling of wanting to get close to the corpses made her feel strange and a little uneasy.
Yan Yuan reached out and covered her eyes, then said gently: "Stop looking, let's go into the city and talk."
"Yes."
Liu Ruo Qing did not think about her strange actions just now, and walked towards the city gate together with Yan Yuan.
"Scram, scram, scram. Don't block this grandpa's way."
Just as they were about to enter the city gate and go to the magistrate court to see the local magistrate, they heard an impatient voice from the front, accompanied by the wails of children and women.
"Young master, I beg of you to do me a favor and give me some medicine. The child's father is on the verge of collapsing."
The woman held onto the man's clothes and cried for him. Perhaps the man's expression was too fierce, but the child was scared and cried louder and louder. That made the man even more annoyed.
He then kicked the child to the side, pointed at the tip of the woman's nose and said, "Your man is about to die, why does this have anything to do with me, it's best to stay away from me. If you get sick and give it to me, then I'll just drown you and your mother in the water, so I can be your husband's companion."
Hahahahahaha!
The lackeys by the man's side also laughed, as if the disaster that followed the flood had nothing to do with them.
The woman was frightened by the man, especially when her son was kicked by him. She immediately stopped crying and did not want to die, so she turned around and shouted to the man: "Your father is the head of a county, is he not going to care about the life and death of the people? We just want some medicine, what's wrong with that! "
"This stinking woman, how dare she retort. Even the imperial government cannot interfere in this matter. My father even has the mind to bother with you lowly commoners!"
As he spoke, he turned to his followers and shouted, "Slap her."
"How preposterous! This bastard is going too far!"
Tian Shu, who was by Yan Yuan's side, had been suppressing his temper the entire time. When he saw this scene, he could not help but take out his blade from his waist, and swung it towards the woman's face.
"Tianshu."
Yan Yuan called out to stop him, then walked over and ordered people to help the mother and son up.
When the man who spoke arrogantly earlier saw Dubhe pull out the blade, he was also shocked. Only after he was stopped by Yan Yuan did he come back to his senses.
He thought that they had some reservations after hearing the woman say that his father was Zhixian, so they became even more arrogant.
Judging from the way these people were dressed, he could tell that they were not local. The superiority and pride in his heart was not affected in the slightest by this disaster.
"You must be from outside the city, don't meddle in other people's business. Otherwise, you wouldn't even know how you died here."
Seeing him like this, Liu Ruo Qing wanted to beat her up long ago, but seeing that they did not want to reveal their identity, and that he did not want to cause trouble for Yan Yuan, she endured his anger for a few times.
Yan Yuan ignored his arrogant face, hearing his words, he laughed: "You said that we will die here?"
The tone of Yan Yuan's voice was still considered gentle, the expression on his face did not contain even the slightest bit of anger, but for some reason, when the man heard Yan Yuan's words, his originally arrogant attitude had been forcefully suppressed, and he seemed to be afraid.
Restraining his threatening tone from before, he said, "You …" Didn't you see that the surroundings were all soaked corpses? The food and herbs provided by the imperial government for the disaster have not yet arrived. All the herbs in this county, and even the local citizens, are insufficient.
Other than Tian Shu, the rest of the shadow and shadow guards around Yan Yuan were all hiding in the dark. When they heard the man still dare to curse their master, they immediately wanted to pull out their swords, but they were suppressed by Yan Yuan's gaze.
"Why can't I see that the Zhixian is working hard to heal the local citizens?"
Yan Yuan looked at the mother and son who were in a sorry state, and his gaze suddenly turned cold, "They asked you for some medicine but you refused to give them to them?"
It wasn't just the girl who was asking for medicine. Along the way, they didn't see any temporary medical tent built to treat the medical workers.
