It was very difficult for Song Chongjing to hear his words, he was only looking at her and did not say anything.

"With an emperor like him, who knows what the world will look like when his crown prince takes over."

Xi Mengyao originally did not want to care about these things, but now that she mentioned it, she could not help but sigh.

"Look at these commoners. They are diligently and diligently supporting themselves every day. They are in an indecent situation and constantly contend against each other. In the end, you guys are fine, but what about them?" As she spoke, she sighed.

Seeing that Song Chongjing only had a cold face and did not move an inch, she did not say anything more.

"Your thoughts are your own. In the end, this has nothing to do with me. Do whatever you want."

Xi Mengyao helplessly said as she shook her arm, she then turned her head and no longer looked at him, she only looked at the street outside, amongst the people walking in and out, there seemed to be some people who were different from the others.

"Weird, since when did this capital have so many barbarians." Looking at it now, Xi Mengyao could already see the sixth.

There were people wearing different clothes everywhere, and most of them didn't have any problems. They just strolled around like normal people.

However, there were groups of three or five people in the capital, and they were usually just one person.

This was rather strange. Most of the people here were doing business, and since they were only relying on their boats and horses, it was not convenient for them to travel here. Thus, they definitely wouldn't be going out alone.

In the past, when she went out, she had met a few, and they were all in groups. The kind that could block most of the streets while walking.

"These people from the Pandas, are they all out to vent their anger?" she said to herself.

Song Chongjing pressed down on her hand.

Xi Mengyao turned his head strangely, only to see him shaking his head slightly. After a while, Song Chongjing said: "This group of people do not look simple, I just saw that there are people looking at you too."

"It can't be …" Xi Mengyao was a little surprised: "You don't think that they already have this many people already?"

"Just a suspicion." Song Chongjing was also unable to confirm.

However, he had also noticed those people earlier. Although they appeared to be scattered around the area, if anything were to happen, they would all be looking out for them. Most likely, they were not just here to relax.

"I will deploy troops tomorrow and carefully investigate exactly when these people came here." Song Chongjing looked at the situation outside, and his expression did not change at all.

"It looks like even after the emperor stripped you of your position, there's still some use for it." Xi Mengyao only said one sentence, but did not say anymore.

The two of them arrived at the outskirts of the city. She still remembered the location of the family, so she directly brought them there.

On the outside, it looked extremely calm. The countryside was filled with a dozen acres of fertile land. The people from the Qiong family from before had settled down here.

She jumped down from the carriage, and when she saw the wheat fields that had begun to sprout, she finally breathed a sigh of relief.

From the looks of it, the growth of the crops was quite pleasing. They had led a good life and were only waiting for snow to fall. If everything went well, the harvest next year would definitely be very good.

Seeing all these, Xi Mengyao also took a deep breath. She actually liked it here, far away from the hustle and bustle. Although it was in the wilderness, with a small bridge and flowing water, it was still quite a different style.

After she got off the carriage, she couldn't help but look around. Song Chongjing only followed her from a distance, only seeing that as if she had broken free from her shackles, her movements had become lighter.

Xi Mengyao seemed to be a person who did not belong to this world. Every smile on her face carried a different arrogance than a noble woman, as if her entire body was filled with spirit just like the world.

Song Chongjing only looked at her green skirt which blended together with the wheat fields around him, but did not seem to want to disturb her. He only wanted to watch on quietly like this, if only she would do so for her entire life.

The moment this thought came out, even Song Chongjing himself was shocked.

Just then, Xi Mengyao realised that no one was following him, she turned his head to look, and after standing still for a moment, she turned his head to see Song Chongjing standing far away by the side of the carriage, as though she was also looking her way.

His eyes were deep, and it was unknown what he was thinking.

Xi Mengyao frowned, she turned and looked, then waved her hand: "What are you looking at?"

Hearing the voice, Song Chongjing shook his head, he did not say anything else and followed along.

In the end, he did not know how this matter would develop, so it was better not to overdo it.

After walking over, she saw that Xi Mengyao's face was slightly ugly, she had also followed beside Song Chongjing: "It's not good, the people I am looking for, I can't seem to find them."

"Why?"

Xi Mengyao sighed, turned her head and pointed into the distance.

Song Chongjing turned to look at the scenery of the city, only to see a house that had collapsed there, "What are you looking at?"

Xi Mengyao only looked around to confirm that there was no one around before turning her head, "I once saved a person. His family used to live here, but now I can't find them."

After saying that, she looked towards the collapsed house.

"They live there, but you saw them. They must be gone by now." Xi Mengyao did not even think about it, he only needed to look at the broken state of the house to know that she had been gone for a long time.

She also did not ask Song Chongjing how he found out the story of the two men.

Thinking of this, she couldn't help but sigh.

The man looked loyal, but his mouth was broken. It's just that with Song Chongjing's personality, with such a capable and obedient subordinate, he would probably be a lot less worried.

"What do you want to do if we can't find that person?" Song Chongjing stood behind her, looking at the house from a distance, and saw that there were more people in front of her, looking like they were here to take advantage of the cold: "Why don't we find someone to ask?"

"Yes." Xi Mengyao nodded and went over.

However, they didn't know if it was her misconception, but when they walked over, the people sitting outside the door all stood up and started chatting and laughing.

Those people seemed to be farmers, and it just so happened that they had to go to work as well.

But...

Xi Mengyao only looked at it, but shook her head and sighed: "That's strange, why do I feel like there's more people here."

She just stared at the people coming and going outside. There were quite a few of them, but most of them were carrying burdens and seemed to be working in agriculture.

This shouldn't have been surprising … She didn't know why, but she had a feeling that it was wrong to have so many people here at this time.

After thinking about it, she turned her head to look at Song Chongjing. "It seems that more and more people are gathering here?"
