Chapter 233 Refugees outside the city
Chapter 232

What she saw along the way chilled Fengwei, she didn't expect things to develop so fast, and in a blink of an eye the people who were happily celebrating the New Year were already displaced and starved of food.

The closer you get to Jiaozhi, the heavier the wind and snow on the road, especially at night, when the howling wind rages wildly with the snow, people standing on the ground feel like they are about to be blown into the sky by the wind, and they dare not rush on the road!It turned out that the distance that could be covered in one day and one night, Feng Wei and the others walked for three days!
The situation in Jiaozhi was far worse than the news that reached Wuling. The four city gates were crowded with people. On both sides of the road were crooked and tattered tents. Sitting on the snow with a quilt, his body was dirty and messy, he shivered when the wind blew, and his lips were black and purple.

When Fengwei arrived, it was almost time for dinner.

But walking 500 meters away from the city gate, she did not see a single charity shed.

Before Fengwei came here, she sent a letter to the prefectures and city orders of the three places, asking them to ensure that the daily food of the victims would not be cut off. No matter how much it cost, she and Feng's family would pay for it!
At the beginning, Fengwei asked Feng's family and her subordinates to go to Wei State to buy grain, but this is not the harvest season after all, the grain purchased is limited, and the weather is cold and the transportation is not good, so naturally it is impossible to transport all of them to the south of Wuling What's more, she doesn't know which cities will be unlucky first, so the food is arranged every few cities. Of course, in the local area, the Feng family's grain store also collects some food to make up for it.

However, since the three places of Hongyin and Jiaozhi in Lian County were affected by the disaster, the grain store under the name of Feng's family and the new batch have been exhausted. According to the time, the next batch will have to wait another three days to arrive!Otherwise, Feng Wei wouldn't rush over here in such a hurry!

After all, without Emperor Feng's order, the treasury cannot be used, it all depends on the Feng family, but in order to purchase grain, several local commercial firms under the Feng family's name have all exhausted their funds and can no longer withdraw them.

Feng Wei knew that they might follow through on the promise she made in the letter to the city orders of the three prefectures in a short period of time, but if the funds from the Feng family were never seen coming, those cunning dignitaries would not keep their pockets all the time. A bottomless pit to fill the stomachs of refugees!

Now it seems...it really is so!
Feng Wei rode her horse and walked slowly towards the city gate surrounded by eight hundred guards.

Such a large group, fully armed, well-disciplined, and extremely orderly, caused commotion among the disaster victims surrounding the city gate. All of them looked at this side, dazed, numb, dazed, and empty. , except that there was no surprise or overjoyed.

They are desperate and don't think anyone will come to save them...

People are dying, cold, hungry, and sick every day, but the people in the city don't care about it, and the court doesn't issue any orders!

They... are a group of outcasts!

In the gloomy corner, several pairs of eyes watched Feng Wei and her party with resentment and resentment, and one of them whispered: "It's these disgusting nobles again! They eat and drink our blood and flesh, but turn a blind eye to our pain! I just want to kill them all!"

The speaker had triangular eyes, high cheekbones, and a pointed head. He was wearing a tattered hat, and his hands were shivering in his sleeves.

"There will be a chance! Zhao Laosan and the others have already agreed to join forces and asked us to discuss the details today." Another tall man beside him, wearing only a thick white autumn robe, replied in a deep voice.

"Look, there is actually a woman in the army?" As they spoke, they pointed to Feng Wei, who was surrounded by the guards in the center, with disdain and disgust in their eyes, "I don't know where the delicate and delicate woman came from." Girl, do you come here to see the scenery?"

As he spoke, his eyes suddenly widened, "This... this..."

Along with him, there are countless people around who also stared wide-eyed.

In the snowy ground, a blood-red flag embroidered with a golden phoenix totem flutters in the wind, standing in the sky, the rushing red waves turning graceful arcs in the air, the phoenix soaring in the sky, the auspicious clouds ejected from its head are lifelike As if swimming in the air.

I don't know who shouted: "Golden Phoenix! Golden Phoenix! It's the royal totem! It's the royal totem!" The voice trembled with excitement, and seemed to be choked up.

A loud and deep voice spread through every corner of the city gate with internal strength: "The eldest princess came to relieve the disaster under the holy order. Everyone, line up and count the number of people according to age. The old and young are in front, and the young and old are in the back.
The sick are all moved to one place!After entering the city, the eldest princess will send people to distribute food and medicine to you! "

After a moment of silence, the weak and powerless people cheered, "It's the eldest princess! It's the eldest princess! The eldest princess is here for disaster relief! We are saved! We are saved!"

"Grandpa, did you hear that? You will be cured! You will be cured! The Eldest Princess will give medicine and send a doctor to see a doctor. You are saved!"

"Little Treasure, I will have something to eat in the future, so I won't be hungry in a while! Be patient!"

Laughter and tears were everywhere, and even the few people who were talking in the corner were choked and speechless, looking at the flag as if they had seen a ghost.

One person murmured: "How is that possible? Didn't those officials say that the imperial court has not issued any orders, so they can't use the treasury, and can't provide us with food?!" As he spoke, his voice suddenly increased, " Aren't we left to fend for ourselves? Why? Why didn't the eldest princess come earlier?! If she had come earlier, my younger brother wouldn't have..." At this point he couldn't swallow, and suddenly he squatted down with his head in his arms.

The man with triangular eyes looked at the tall man in the lead and asked, "Brother, do we still want to..."

The latter replied silently: "Let's see." He stood up and said, "Let's go, go to the queue and see if this eldest princess is sincerely here to relieve the disaster, or is it just to experience the prestige!"

A person behind him hesitated for a moment, and said: "I heard that the Feng family was the one who provided food for us before. Because of this, the local funds have been exhausted, and all the food that has been hoarded has been taken out...Brother, I think The eldest princess, she is really dedicated to serving the people."

The footsteps of several people paused, and the eldest brother's expression was complicated: "The Feng family... If this is the case, then the plan will be cancelled!"

"But, I will take the life of that dog official!"

As soon as his words came out, the other people didn't object, even the person who spoke for Fengwei and Feng's family earlier kept silent.

Everyone understands each other and knows their past, and there are things that we will do at all costs!
"Brother, we all support you!"

"Good brother!" The elder brother lightly punched the person who spoke on the shoulder. In the open space outside the city gate, the guards who were left behind to count and maintain order had already started shouting, and several people walked over.

 It's stuck. It's been almost two days. .The more I feel that writing is very difficult, I don’t know why, I have been stuck all the time, all kinds of things are not satisfactory, sigh, if possible, I really want to overhaul the full text!I will try my best to find a good state.
