The Yangzhou state capital was also in chaos. All the officers and soldiers guarding the city retreated to guard the gate of the state capital. A protective wall was built to prevent the victims from entering. Some staff members and relatives of the officials had already left Yangzhou in the first wave.

Lin Sheng didn't expect that Yangzhou would be in such a mess. When he received the order to come to Yangzhou, there was only news that Su Ming was seriously ill. On the way, he heard that the Liujiang River broke its embankment, and he sent someone back to Kyoto to report.Liangjiang's news has been covered up, and he dare not report it. His news may have reached the cabinet first, but now the news will definitely not get through, and he doesn't know what the court will do.

But his task is not to provide disaster relief, nor to deal with the victims in Yangzhou city, but to obtain the wealth of the Su family firm, so after arriving in Yangzhou in the middle of the night, Lin Sheng took a team to the Su family mansion after a simple rest, intending to force Su Ming handed over the token of the Su family, but he didn't know that the token was in Feng Shu's hands.

When he took people to the Su family's mansion, the victims were already rioting on the street. The magistrate of Yangzhou said that Su Ming was critically ill. No one dared to bear the infamy of killing Su Ming. They had to wait until he could not survive the winter and die before going. Apart from Su Ming, no one in the Su family should be afraid of seeking the property of the Su family.When Lin Sheng saw the victims of the disaster making troubles in the street, he had a malicious plan, and deliberately sent troops to pretend to be the victims, inciting and inciting them to rob the Su family mansion. The Su family mansion occupies a large area and can accommodate thousands of victims. These victims have been trapped for a long time After being incited, they condensed into a group and broke into the Su family mansion.

Lin Sheng originally thought that the victims would break into the Su family's mansion and kill Su Ming in the chaos. As long as Su Ming died, the firm would fall into his hands. People go to the empty building.Lin Sheng was so angry that he didn't care about the chaos on the street. He led a team of government soldiers to search the Su's business, but found that Yinzhuang's warehouse had been emptied long ago, leaving only tens of thousands of taels of silver.

Lin Sheng was so angry that he arrested the head of the Su family and Su Ming's younger brother to question him, but no one knew where Su Ming was going. Before the accident, the family members of the steward Su also found a place to hide. Yangzhou spread its wings and flew, and immediately investigated the files in the state government, checked Su Ming's private property in Yangzhou, and sent people from family to search.

If this errand is not done well, he will not be able to return to the capital.

However, the chaos in Yangzhou City was even crazier than Lin Sheng expected. After the city gate was opened, tens of thousands of disaster victims flooded in again, causing grief everywhere.The epidemic was raging, and several government soldiers actually contracted the disease. They had large rashes on their bodies and high fever. The disease quickly spread, and Lin Sheng began to panic. In such a chaotic situation, how would he complete the tasks assigned by the emperor.

"My lord, don't worry about the property of the Su family, run away quickly, the city of Yangzhou is in chaos, if you don't leave, we will die here!" the state government persuaded earnestly.

Lin Sheng drew his sword against his neck, "Listen, if you hadn't been so overjoyed and received too many victims, Yangzhou would not have gotten out of control. Now that you have caused such chaos, you should be punished. As the state capital of Yangzhou, you have I don’t want to solve the problem, I just want to run away. What face do you have to be the capital of the state? Listen, take people to the streets, kill the victims of the riots, and kill the chickens to scare the monkeys. What are the tens of thousands of garrison troops in Yangzhou doing? Hiding in the state capital Watch the disaster victims make trouble?"

"However, most of them are infected with the disease..."

"If you get sick, kill them! If you kill them all, the disease will be contained in Yangzhou City. Do you still want the disease to spread to the prefectures of Yanyang?" Lin Sheng was furious. He took people to the Su Family Commercial Bank to search for money, but when he came back It was discovered that the garrison in the state capital was afraid of getting sick, and the victims opened the city gate. The number of victims in Yangzhou City doubled. As they lost control, the garrison was greedy for life and fear of death, and did not maintain order.

Li Yong Zhizhou's voice trembled, "My lord, the disaster victims... have all the tens of thousands of people been killed?"

Yangzhou is out of control because the garrison is afraid of the epidemic. This is one of the reasons. The second is that the victims are also people who have no power to restrain the chickens. It is impossible to kill every one of the victims. Now the city is full of victims. How can this be done? over!

"Anyone who dares to make trouble on the street will be killed. Kill chickens and monkeys. You are hiding in the state capital, and they are even more unscrupulous. The epidemic will soon infect everyone in Yangzhou. Send people to suppress it immediately. Yangzhou is out of control, and you can't escape You are the chief culprit of this turmoil, and you'd better make amends!" Lin Sheng was about to go mad with anger, but he didn't expect Li Yong to be so overjoyed and incompetent, "Close all Yangzhou immediately Out of the city, the disease cannot spread out of Yangzhou, the less the better!"

"...Yes!" Li Yong also knew that he was afraid, and hurriedly ordered all the garrison soldiers in Yangzhou to wear masks, go to the streets to arrest the rioters, and must control the order in Yangzhou.

Lin Sheng didn't know how many people got sick. He only heard about floods all the way, but never about epidemics. If there was an epidemic in Yangzhou, the epidemic should be contained within the city of Yangzhou. Don't walk around casually and spread the disease to all parts of Yangzhou.

"Have you searched all the private houses under Su Ming's name?" Lin Sheng asked, his most important task was the Su family firm, not to maintain the order in Yangzhou, that was the state's business.

"I have searched, but there is no trace of him."

Lin Sheng's eyes were dark and precarious. An old man in his late twilight was seriously ill. Where could he go?
"Go and check Suzheng's private property, they must be hiding."

"Yes!"

The sun was slanting to the west, dusk was sinking, and night followed. Yangzhou city was burning with flames in the distance. Standing in front of the gate of the state capital, Lin Sheng could see it clearly. Lin Sheng didn't expect that Yangzhou would lose control to this point.

This Li Yong...deserves death!
He shouldn't have opened the gates of the city to let so many disaster victims into the city in the first place. If tens of thousands of disaster victims gather in the city, chaos will inevitably arise.There are nearly 80 people in Yangzhou city, if they all get sick...the consequences will be disastrous.

After receiving tens of thousands of victims, he knew that the state government was unable to control them, so he closed the city gates and locked some of the victims outside the city. Thousands of people were starved alive. The hatred among these disaster victims has grown wildly, and now they want to drag everyone in Yangzhou to be buried with them.

Lin Sheng's eyes were gloomy. If he couldn't get the property of the Su family firm, he could only burn it all and return to Beijing to avoid punishment. This is the safest way to blame everything on Li Yong.

After the sunset, Fang Lingjun's mood also stabilized. Fengyu and she both dressed up in men's clothing, everyone wore face scarves, and Chunlu packed up the food distribution.Su Ming was a little drowsy, Nuan Yang carried him into the carriage, and the group prepared to go to the pier to leave Yangzhou.

As soon as the carriage drove out of the narrow street, when it reached the street, a strong smell of blood rushed to his face. Nuan Yang reined in his horse and raised his hand, looking at the scene in front of him in shock.

The government soldiers in official robes, wearing face scarves and holding long knives frantically slashed and killed the victims on the street. The victims fled everywhere and were ruthlessly killed, with their bodies lying on the ground.Many victims rose up to resist and fought with the officers and soldiers. The whole street was covered with flames and blood.

Nuan Yang has never seen such a terrible scene in more than ten years.

Feng Yu and Fang Lingjun lifted the curtain, their faces paled.

"Nuanyang, change the road!" This road cannot be taken.

Steward Su was very familiar with Yangzhou City, so he quickly pointed to a road. However, just as he walked out of the circular block and wanted to change a road, Nuan Yang saw Lin Sheng coming towards him.

Lin Sheng was wearing a scarlet official robe, riding a steed and leading a group of people past them at lightning speed. When Nuan Yang saw Lin Sheng, he lowered his head. Fortunately, he was wearing a mask and only his eyes were exposed, otherwise Lin Sheng would definitely recognize them.

"Go!" Nuan Yang urged in a deep voice.

Looking at Lin Sheng's direction, he must be looking for Mr. Su!

Yangzhou is already a purgatory on earth and must escape as soon as possible.
