After being exiled, I led my whole family to rebel.

An extremely embarrassing smile appeared on Wang Yin's face. He did this overnight food delivery behind the other three families' backs. Now that Chen Zhangyi died, the heads of the other two families looked at him in shock.

Wang Yin didn't think Xu Zhenying's words really praised him. They were clearly using him to establish prestige for the other two families.

Wang Yin smiled awkwardly and could only ignore the resentful looks from the Liu and Gu families. He raised his hands and said to Xu Zhenying: "It is my great fortune to Wang Yin to be able to relieve the king's difficulties and do something practical for the people. If the king has the will, I, the Wang family, will No excuses."

"Well said, Mr. Wang is knowledgeable and knows how to advance and retreat. Don't worry, I will treat you Wang family members well!" Xu Zhenying smiled and patted Wang Yin on the shoulder. As expected, the Liu and Gu families immediately hit the snake with a stick and knelt down. Xu Zhenying begged for mercy at his feet, "Your Majesty, I am also willing to hand over all my family property to help the people in the city tide over the difficulties! Please forgive me and allow me to do my best for the people!"

"Chen Zhangyi has been bullying and dominating the market in Lan County for many years. Today, thanks to your Majesty's intervention, we got rid of this scourge for our Lan County. Our Lan County is finally at peace, and your Majesty's contribution is indispensable! I am also willing to donate three thousand stones of food and grass. In the future, I A person and his whole family only look after the king, and the little ones will do whatever the king tells the little ones to do!”

This is a quick sign of loyalty.

Jiang Yongkang collected the heads of the Chen family without changing his expression and found someone to hang them in the most conspicuous place in the city. The Liu and Gu families looked at Chen Zhangyi's head, they were so scared that they lost all thoughts.

Xu Zhenying smiled with satisfaction, "If that's the case, then I'd rather be respectful than obey your orders. Please rest assured, you three, I, Xu Zhenying, will not borrow food in vain, and I will repay you some time in the future."

The three of them looked at each other, sweating profusely, thinking to themselves not to repay anything, just take it away.

After experiencing such a beheading farce and Xu Zhenying's violent suppression, it was obvious that the people of Lan County were much more obedient.

Various tasks are also progressing faster.

Mrs. Miao looked at the grain that was being pushed into the granary one after another. The huge granary was gradually filling up. The workers were working enthusiastically. She led the people to register carefully and counted the four wealthy households in the city today. The food sent in may be enough for them to survive for several months.

While Miao felt happy, she remembered the bloody scene again.

She suddenly felt that the food seemed to be stained with warm blood.

Xu Zhenying ordered that part of the grain paid today be distributed to the people in the city, partly to get them to work together and win people's hearts.Secondly, it is also considered that many people have no surplus food in their homes. If granaries are not opened to store food, many people may not survive this winter.

The task of distributing food was not easy, so Xu Zhenying sent Lian, Qian Zhenniang, Aunt Feng and others to help.

Soon, everyone in the Xu family also arrived.

Huang Cui'e came with her two sons and several people from the second room.

At first, the people thought that Xu Zhenying's talk about dividing grain was just a joke. However, in the afternoon, someone came to divide their numbers and asked them to wait at home to get their utensils. Someone would call their numbers later.

The man also repeatedly emphasized that there was enough food today and he had to call his number before he could go out. If he had gone earlier, he would just wait in the cold wind. There was no need to go out in advance to beat the crowd.

Even a well-known good official like Sun Qingchen has never been so generous as to distribute food to the people of the whole city!
The people in Lan County were doubtful, but they had expectations in their hearts. They sat at home on pins and needles, and when the sun turned westward, they heard something moving.

Someone jumped up immediately and went to open the door anxiously: "Is it really true that the food is distributed?"

"Really? Are grains really distributed to every household?"

Someone had already received the food and was jumping for joy. He reported the situation loudly: "Yes, yes, everyone has it! Didn't someone come to register the situation from door to door yesterday? Your Majesty knew the situation of all of us." Clearly, the number of people in your family, the number of children, and the number of acres of land are all written there—"

Someone stuck his head out and looked at the heavy grain behind the man with envy. "Really or not, how are they divided? Is it divided by a dou per family, or by head. I have many kids in my family, can I share more?" click it?!"

"Don't say it's a boy, there are girls too!"

"What, there are girls too?!" Someone immediately asked eagerly. There were only three girls in his family, and one boy was still crying for food. Women's heads were never counted when dividing food. Therefore, he was complaining to heaven, but he didn't know that he heard The girl also had it, and she immediately became anxious, "It's true or not, the girl also has it, are you sure?"

"I'm sure! The person who distributed the grain said that a bushel of rice for a girl and a bushel of rice for a boy were both heads! Some people were still unconvinced at that time, saying why women were included in it, so the eldest sister who shared the grain asked him if the woman was a head. He even asked him if women didn't eat, and it was such a noisy meal. The eldest sister also said that if you have any objections to women sharing food in the future, then don't come to collect the food from the city lord! You talk a lot of nonsense when giving them food. , this kind of person just can’t see others..."

"Thank you to heaven, thank you to your Majesty!" The man knelt down beside the door anxiously and kowtowed in the direction of the county government office. When he got up, he burst into tears, "Several girls in my family have been saved... How are you, Your Majesty... Your Majesty is getting old and we, the old Zhang family, are talented. You have something to eat... Come, Sanniang, follow dad and kowtow to the king..."

The girl next to her immediately knelt down at the door and bowed solemnly in the direction of the county government office.

I don’t know why, but the people next to me looked at him with red eyes.

Who would have thought that just because of Xu Zhenying's act of distributing grain, the people of Lan County immediately accepted Xu Zhenying and others.

Some people even thought treacherously: It seems that this mountain king would be good as a county magistrate.

At this moment, Xu Zhenying did not participate in the food distribution. She only asked Xu Yinxi to take the Xu family to help, while Feng'er stayed by her side to wait for orders.

Because Liu Dazhuang is back.

He brought back news about Li Zhaodi.

He also brought back a woman with plump breasts and a rosy look all over her body.

When Liu Dazhuang mentioned that this woman was the most famous madam in the river area, Xu Zhenying had a bad feeling.

Sure enough, the old bustard was like a frightened bird, trembling in front of a bandit leader like Xu Zhenying, and almost couldn't even speak clearly: "Your Majesty, your Majesty, Zhao Di... has such a strong temper. I've been raising her for two days now, and I can't even speak clearly." But when I asked her to pick up the guests, she actually jumped into the lake and committed suicide. Several of our sisters couldn't stop her... Your Majesty... You can't blame us... We didn't touch a finger on her. It was because she couldn't think of it. …”

Xu Zhenying felt his eyes go dark and almost fell into his chair.

The big man showed no mercy and directly kicked the old bustard in the back, shouting angrily: "Fuck you, have you eaten the courage of a bear and a leopard? You dare to lie to our city lord, believe it or not." Arrest all the girls under your command and interrogate them. If the testimonies do not match up, I will throw you into prison and subject you to all the severe punishments!"

The old madam screamed "Ouch, ouch" in pain. After being threatened like this, she didn't dare to hide anything. "I have no conscience, Mom, I really never touched her even a finger. It was a few girls who caused mischief. Yesterday A guest came who was not easy to serve, and they... they didn't want to serve them, so they tricked Na Zhaodi into going..."

My mother cried and felt that she was so unjust.

Xu Zhenying's face turned pale, "Go on!"

"Zhao Di is too hot-tempered. She won't eat or drink from the first day she came in, and she even scratched the guard several times. I originally said that I should improve her temper and temper her temper before letting her take on guests, but I didn't know that yesterday She went like this that night... I don’t know what happened, but I knew that not long after she entered, I heard glasses breaking in the house, and later they said that Zhaodi jumped directly from the window and jumped into the moat! "

Xu Zhenying felt that her mind was blank for several seconds, unable to digest the sudden bad news. She breathed rapidly, holding the side of her head tightly with both hands.

Feng'er had already burst into tears. With quick eyes and quick hands, she supported Xu Zhenying and called out: "Young Master!"

Na Da Zhuang continued to ask: "Where is the body! Could it be that you just ignored her after she jumped?"

"Your Majesty, the moat is connected, and the water is cold and deep. Who is willing to salvage it in this winter. By the time I found it, the body had long been washed away by the river. I really mean it. It's unfair. Because of this, the customer lost his temper and almost smashed my sign. I only saved my life by kneeling down and kowtow. If I had known that this damn girl was so fierce, I...I... Why bring her in and cause such trouble to yourself! I really...I really died unjustly..."

Feng'er was angry and anxious, with tears streaming down her face. Thinking of Li Zhaodi's voice and smile, her heart was as sharp as a knife, "Where's that man? Catch him. I'm going to kill him to avenge Zhaodi!"

"Ah..." The old bustard looked at a loss, "Isn't he already dead?"

Xu Zhenying slapped the table, stood up, and pressed towards the madam with all her strength: "Dead? How did you die?"

"Didn't he have his head chopped off by some of the heads of the family this morning?" The Madam said hesitantly, "It's the eldest son of the Chen family..."

At this time, everyone in the room fell into an eerie silence.

Xu Zhenying was stunned.

Could it be that...if she had attacked the Chen family earlier, Li Zhaodi would not have ended up with no bones left?

All the blood on Xu Zhenying's face faded instantly, and she murmured: "If I had been earlier..."

Feng'er immediately interrupted her: "City Lord, you must not have such thoughts, this is fate... none of us know what will happen last night, Zhao Di's incident has no causal relationship with you, you must not Blame yourself!”

Da Zhuang also said: "Don't worry, city lord, I will take people into the water to retrieve Miss Zhaodi's body now. As the saying goes, if you want to see someone alive or die, you will see her body, I will definitely bring Miss Zhaodi back!" Xu Zhenying's eyes turned red, she He sat there for a long time, motionless, like a statue in meditation.

The old bustard tremblingly begged for mercy: "Your Majesty, this matter really has nothing to do with me. If I had known that Zhaodi was the King's sweetheart, I wouldn't have dared to embarrass her even if I had borrowed some courage! My hand I have taught you a lesson for those girls down there. If you are still angry, I will call them all to apologize to the king! Please also ask the king to be lenient and leave me a way to survive——"

Feng'er was furious, "Get out of here!"

The old bustard was immediately overjoyed when he heard this: "I'll get out, I'll get out now..."

Xu Zhenying turned around and glanced at Feng'er. Her voice was a little low: "Go out. I want to be alone for a while."

Feng'er stopped talking and wiped her tears, but didn't say anything. She just turned around and went out and closed the door.

She didn't dare to go too far away, and she didn't dare to go in to comfort Xu Zhenying, so she had to sit on the threshold not far away, looking at the lights in the house dreamily.

Li Zhaodi died, and the girl would probably be sad and blame herself for the rest of her life.

For some reason, Feng'er was also very sad. She was sad for Li Zhaodi, also sad for Xu Zhenying, and even more sad for the world.

Li Zhaodi...that's a good girl...

Although Cao Qin'er was mean and had troubles with Qian Zhenniang, Li Zhaodi was kind-hearted and had secretly stuffed them with cakes before.

To be fair, although Li Zhaodi is Cao Qin'er's daughter, she doesn't hate Li Zhaodi at all, and even feels that Li Zhaodi is more pitiful than herself.

Now that Yinzhang is also dead, Li Zhaodi has long lost the idea of ​​living, and now she simply goes to accompany Yinzhang.

But Cao Qin'er and Li Xiucai's family are still alive in the world.

Feng'er felt it was really unfair.

Why do good people have to suffer so much?Why do people who can endure hardship have to endure hardship more?Why do bad people live so freely?

What's the difference between Feng'er and Li Zhaodi?
After all, she, Li Zhaodi, had been with her parents for so many years. As for her, she had been sold since she was a child and moved around everywhere. If she hadn't been a girl, she and Qian Zhenniang would still be living a life of being bullied and not daring to resist.

How many Li Zhaodi and Feng'er are there in the world?

Feng'er really doesn't understand, why does it have to be so difficult for women to live in this world?

——————————————————————————————

Xu Zhenying has been shutting herself in the room.

Outside, the people cheered. They praised Xu Zhenying's merits. They went home happily with the food. They talked about how good the new king was.

But all this excitement has nothing to do with her.

Miao and the others finished distributing food and when they came back, they saw the door of the county government hall was closed, but the lights were still on inside.

Hearing Feng'er mention Li Zhaodi's matter again, everyone in the Xu family couldn't help but shed tears.

"Then Li Xiucai has really committed a great evil, what the hell!"

Even Huang Cui'e took a sip, "When he came to collect food today, I heard his tone and was prepared to disown Li Zhaodi as his daughter in the future, saying that it was a disgrace to his old Li family. I didn't want to think about them either. Who bought the food for the three people? Their family has no other skills, but their ability to kill donkeys is top-notch!"

Lian herself has three daughters, so she feels the same way. Thinking about Li Zhaodi, her eyes turned red, "That girl is a good girl, and it is her fate to have such parents... I can only hope that she will have a good pregnancy in her next life." , I was entrusted to be born into a rich man’s home, and I would avoid suffering.”

Miao said: "When we are done with the work here, we will go to the temple to burn some sticks of incense and pray to the Buddha to protect the child from such hardship in the next life, and to ask the Buddha to find a good family for her."

Huang Cui'e sighed, "Hey, it would be better if we killed the Chen family earlier. It would be too late. We might not be able to save that girl Zhaodi!"

Feng'er wiped her tears and was about to retort, but Xu Yinxi had already reminded her righteously: "Auntie, never say such things again. Liu Mei has the best relationship with Zhao Di, and at this moment she doesn't know how to blame herself for being sad. , please don’t rub salt into her wounds.”

Huang immediately said: "I don't have to, I don't have to, I just said it smoothly."

Mrs. Miao looked worried, "I'm afraid she hasn't had dinner yet. It's not an option to stay up like this. How about I call her?"

Feng'er shook her head, "Madam, please don't... leave the girl alone for a while. She will come out naturally when she figures it out. Let's not force her, she is already suffering enough."

Miao sighed.

The younger ones in the second room were obviously frightened. First they saw Xu Zhenying beheading so many people with their own eyes in the morning, and now they heard that Li Zhaodi threw herself into the river and her body was completely gone.

If the Chen family had no friendship with them, they had nothing but fear of Xu Zhenying's iron-blooded methods.

But Li Zhaodi is no one else. They were talking together a few days ago, but in the blink of an eye their relationship has faded away, making people lament the impermanence of the world.

Xu Minglu's eyes were also red, and he hugged his little girl and refused to let go.

But Xu Lezhi thought that Li Zhaodi was too weak, no wonder he was always bullied by others, everyone's life was earned by himself, and she, Xu Lezhi, could not end up like Li Zhaodi.

Everyone in the Xu family gradually dispersed.

When it got late at night, the city was quiet, but Feng'er kept waiting outside. Qian Zhenniang called her several times, but she refused to leave, saying she would wait for Xu Zhenying to come out.

Qian Zhenniang was somewhat disgusted, thinking that Feng'er had never treated her so sincerely before.

But then I thought again, who is Xu Zhenying, and what does she compare to others? Feng'er is now the most popular person in front of Xu Zhenying. He takes her with him no matter what he does, while she is reduced to the third echelon. She is A little jealous and a little sad.

Qian Zhenniang left her cloak to Feng'er and brought her a stove. Seeing that she had made up her mind to spend time with Xu Zhenying, she had no choice but to shake her head and leave.

In the dead of night, people are still, the moon is shining on the branches.

Jiang Yongkang is here.

It turned out that all the people in the exile team heard about this incident one after another, and they couldn't help but feel sorry for Li Zhaodi, and they even spurned Li Xiucai's family thousands of times in their hearts.

On the other hand, Li Xiucai's family was relieved.

It is said that Li Xiucai returned three glasses of wine, which meant that he finally no longer had to worry about a prostitute in his old Li family. He felt refreshed, but he still pretended to make Cao Qin'er burn the paper.

Cao Qin'er was really sad and sick in bed because of vomiting.

It's a pity that no one sympathized with her and scolded her for deservedly.

If Mrs. Fang were here, she would definitely have to pour a few basins of cold water on her to wake her up.

If I knew today, why bother at the beginning!

Jiang Yongkang looked at the lights that were burning in the house and asked, "The city lord hasn't come out yet?"

Feng'er was a little worried, "It's been two hours. I'm really afraid... I'm afraid that the girl won't be able to think about it. I'm afraid that the girl will blame herself for not saving Miss Zhaodi earlier. You also know that the girl has always valued love and justice, and I'm afraid she didn't know what to do this time. How long will it take to be sad?”
