Chapter 46 Jizhou

"However, the refugees who escaped from Jizhou followed Master Wei. The number was huge and increasing. His subordinates also found out that Wu Haichang was clearly He Chaoxiong's person, and he was secretly colluding with Cheng Taifu. This time Hu Xubiao gathered The refugees intercepted Mr. Wei at the Shanshan Pass in front of Jingzhou, and they were instructed by Xiao Bohou."

Wan Tuqian narrowed his phoenix eyes slightly, and tapped the handrail lightly with his fingertips.

"Xiao Bohou's speed is quite fast. To be able to contact Hu Xubiao in such a short period of time, his hands are not clean."

Wei Xingzhi beat the head of Yulin County, and cheated him 20 taels, Xiao Bohou will definitely not let it go.

"Xia Feng, you lead someone to catch up with Wei Xingzhi secretly, and protect her life if necessary."

After Xia Feng left, Wan Qiqian sent Li Duobao a message, and called many courtiers that night to discuss the matter of starting the scientific research immediately.

He had to deal with all these things before Wei Xingzhi came back.

In less than half a month, Wei Xingzhi finally arrived in Jizhou with five thousand elite soldiers.

Sure enough, the low-lying places in Jizhou seem to have become reservoirs.

Houses and crops were washed away by the sudden flood, and in some places there were still white corpses soaked in water, broken wooden bridges floating on the water, and washed-out bricks and stones everywhere in towns and villages.

The yellow water was congested inside, and there was not even a place to untangle it.

When she arrived in Jizhou and looked down from a high place, she realized that the situation in Jizhou was worse than she had imagined.

She was wearing a poncho and her throat was dry.

The few words that were only shown in the history books before were clearly presented in front of her eyes.

Looking at the corpses floating in the water, Wei Xingzhi became dizzy suddenly, staggered and almost fell to the ground.

Qin Changbai stretched out his hand to support her, and said in a low voice, "Just arrived in Jizhou, don't be in a hurry, go back to the carriage and rest for a while."

Even a frail scholar like him felt flustered seeing this scene, not to mention that Wei Xingzhi was a girl two years younger than him.

Seeing her pale face, my heart couldn't help but soften.

Wei Xingzhi shook his head, then turned to look at Zhou Han, "Don't take the refugees up the mountain, but find a few high-lying open spaces around Jizhou and set up camp, so that they can nourish their spirits."

There are still battles to be fought in the future.

"A place as big as Jizhou has become like this. Where are those local officials? And King Kang?" Wei Xingzhi brushed Qin Changbai's hand away and stood up straight.

Just as she was thinking about it, Fu Lianzi hurried over with a middle-aged man, "My lord, this man said he has something to report to you."

Wei Xingzhi turned slightly sideways.

The man knelt down respectfully towards Wei Xingzhi, "My lord, Caomin Niu Tiegen, I pay my respects to my lord."

"Get up, there is no need to be so polite." Wei Xing knew, "You have something to report to me, what's the matter?"

Niu Tiegen scratched his head, lowered his head and did not dare to look directly into Wei Xingzhi's eyes, "There is a mountain in Jizhou with the highest terrain. When the officials heard that there was going to be a flood, they packed up their things and went to the mountain. Half of the living people fled around, and half also went up that mountain."

"Mountain." Wei Xingzhi frowned slightly, the heavy rain poured down, and there was another flood.

Are you not afraid of landslides if you stay on the mountain?

An ominous premonition suddenly appeared in her heart, she reached out and patted Niu Tiegen's shoulder, "You are fine, I am not familiar with the terrain of Jizhou, would you like to take me to that mountain?"

Niu Tiegen nodded quickly, and there was a little heat in the place Wei Xingzhi photographed.

"Caomin is willing to serve adults, Caomin is willing."

It took half a month from Jingzhou to Jizhou, and they understood that this Mr. Wei was in charge.

And along the way, as a woman, the food, clothing, housing and transportation are the same as theirs, including the disaster relief food from the imperial court, which is also distributed to them.

Although not much, it was much better than the time of fleeing for one's life.

Hu Xubiao had promised them that as long as they followed him, he would fill their stomachs, but Hu Xubiao had no food in his hands, so the only way was to rob the elite soldiers for disaster relief.

That is the crime of beheading!

But at that time, they had no other choice, and now Master Wei is willing to give them a chance, and is willing to accompany them back to Jizhou, even if she is a woman.

But Mr. Wei's behavior is not inferior to those local officials in Jizhou.

Wei Xingzhi nodded, and told Qin Changbai, "You stay here with Zhou Han. You don't know martial arts. It's inconvenient to follow me on the mountain road. Zhou Han will stay here with you, and it can also deter people who have different ideas."

Qin Changbai frowned, "But you are a woman, and you bring a maid..."

No matter how useless he is, he is still a man.

Before he finished speaking, Wei Xingzhi interrupted, "Fu Lianzi's skill, one hit ten is no problem, don't underestimate my maid. I will take a hundred people up the mountain, you stay here, immediately, set off immediately .”

Qin Changbai still wanted to say something, but a hand was put on his shoulder.

Turning around, Zhou Han looked at him with a smile, "Master Qin, what Azhi decides can't be changed even if the Heavenly King Laozi comes. You should stay here with peace of mind and settle your own affairs by the way."

After finishing speaking, he turned his head and raised his eyebrows at Wan Rongxuan who was swallowing at Qin Changbai.

This heir of Rui County Prince's Mansion is drooling over Qin Changbai!

Qin Changbai's face darkened, he turned and walked towards the crowd.

He would rather stay with the people than see this thing.

The rain in Jizhou was urgent and heavy, a bit more violent than that in the imperial city.

The outer rows of pine logs on the mountain have been blown to the ground by the wind, and torches are still faintly lit in several caves.

"Master Yan, it's raining non-stop, so we can't stay on the mountain all the time, right? I heard that the imperial envoy sent by the imperial court will arrive in Jizhou soon, so it's not good if we don't go out to meet him?"

In a spacious cave on the top of the mountain, there are thick wool felts all around, charcoal basins are lit next to it, and a mahogany table in the middle is placed with several mugs of fine wine and delicate pastries.

The person who spoke was an old man in green sitting at the west corner of the table. He stretched out his hand and squeezed a peanut and threw it in his mouth with a nonchalant expression.

The official known as Mr. Yan lazily leaned on the chair covered with felt, drowsy, "Li Xiancheng, why are you panicking, can you stay in Jizhou? We can be forgiven here .”

Li Zhongjing picked up the wine glass on the table, "I'm not worried about this, I'm afraid of King Kang..."

"Kang Kang, what happened to King Kang?" Yan You sneered, "Jizhou was flooded, and King Kang died in the water desperately trying to save the people."

"This is a sure thing..." Yan You squinted his eyes, the rain outside was torrential, even in the depth of summer, it was still damp and cold.

And there is a brazier in this cave, which is as warm as spring.

Suddenly, a small official ran up in a panic, "My lord, my lord, it's not good, it's raining fast, and those people on the mountain who have nowhere to hide from the rain have to rush over to find an explanation..."
