After Zhong Yebai finished speaking, he was happy to know that he had made a mistake in the first place, and he thought that he was indeed not as thoughtful as His Royal Highness the Prince, so he quickly admitted his mistake to Zhong Yebai, and apologized to the victims who almost died under his halberd, pulled the reins, and returned to the team, but still remained vigilant.

The surrounding victims who listened to Zhong Yebai's remarks knelt down to Zhong Yebai and his party one after another, and bluntly said that Zhong Yebai was a bodhisattva.

Zhong Yebai struck while the iron was hot and continued to say to the victims, "Everyone, please listen to me, I empathize with what happened to you, but we are in too much hurry to travel this time, and we didn't bring much food with us, and we can't guarantee that all of you can get it with us even if we try our best, and now we don't have any food on us." ”

The victims who originally risked their lives to step into Chidao to get a piece of the pie heard that the son-in-law in the team said that there was no food, and their spirits suddenly withered, and they were about to leave Chidao in a daze.

If there is no military affairs or imperial order, those who enter the gallop road without authorization can be charged with the army or beheaded, but starvation to death is death, and stepping into the gallop road is death, it is better to give up their lives to fight, in case they can get a mouthful of food for life, and because the law does not blame the public, they can be exempted from the capital crime of trespassing on the road without authorization?

At this time, I heard that there was no food, so if you don't leave the gallop and wait for death?

I was happy but seeing that the victims were about to disperse, I couldn't help but admire His Royal Highness the Prince of the World, who was famous all over the world, in the end, His Royal Highness the Prince of the World, he didn't need to fight and kill, he actually let the victims disperse, in the end, it was the son of His Royal Highness the King of Chu, although his body was thin and weak, but his aura was there.

But just when the victims were ready to leave, and they were happy and the Xuanjia army thought that the crisis had been solved and they could prepare to hurry, Zhong Yebai's next words made everyone feel like they were facing a great enemy.

"Please don't be disappointed, Chen County is not far from here, I am familiar with Shen Qian, the county guard of Chen County, he is also a distant relative of mine, if you don't dislike it, then follow me along, maybe I can let him give out some food for everyone to deal with emergencies." Seeing that the victims were about to leave, Zhong Yebai shouted to the victims again.

The victims, who had lost hope, were just about to disperse and continue to flee aimlessly, when they heard the loud voice of the leader of the galloping procession, and once again ignited the hope of survival.

When Niu Si heard this, he couldn't help but wonder again whether the little beggar he met in the Taoist temple was really amnesia, or was he testing himself.

Before the carriage was damaged, Niu Si and Zhong Yebai traveled in the same car, taking advantage of the fact that there were no outsiders to disturb him, Zhong Yebai pretended to have amnesia, and deliberately asked Niu Si about many things about the situation in this world, the most important of which was to ask Niu Si about the city to pass on the way back to Beijing, as well as the general situation of the chief official who passed through.

Niu Si is a cloth dealer, and his other skills are not big, but his ability to gossip is extraordinary, not only does he understand the customs and customs of various places, but he also inquires about the reputation and origin of the political officials in various places, and knows these things, which is naturally useless for a small cloth seller, but for Zhong Yebai, a traverser, he is simply a treasure uncle, and he really picked up a treasure.

And just the day before, Niu Sifang introduced the situation of Shen Qian, the county guard of Chen County, to Zhong Yebai, when Zhong Yebai listened to it with relish, it was obvious that he didn't know Shen Qian at all, who would have thought that it was only a day later, and Zhong Dashizi became a distant relative with this Shen Qian.

You must know that Shen Qian is a poor family, if it weren't for the fact that the Great Xuan Dynasty included the Northern Qi Dynasty in the territory, and opened the first scientific expedition under the auspices of His Royal Highness the King of Chu, this Shen Qian is a lifelong son of a poor family, where will there be a future.

As for this distant relative, although Zhong Yue, the king of Chu, is also from a cold family, one is a cold family in Jizhou, the other is a cold family in Qingzhou, one is surnamed Zhong, and the other is surnamed Shen.

That's what Nius asked.

The team began to march again, but this march was much different from the previous march, the previous march was 200 Xuanjia troops escorting His Royal Highness the Prince back to Beijing, this time it was more than 100,000 victims on both sides of the road followed by 200 Xuanjia troops towards Chen County.

On the way, Gao Jian rode to Zhong Yebai's side and whispered.

"His Royal Highness the Prince of the World is clever, when His Royal Highness the Prince of the World speaks, most of the victims are looking at His Royal Highness the Prince, but there are so many people scattered among the victims, not looking at His Royal Highness the Prince, but carefully observing the number of our team, is it the spies of the remnants of Nanzheng or Northern Qi?"

Zhong Yebai smiled slightly, "When did they count us?"

"When His Royal Highness said that he would bring the victims to Chenjun together!"

Hearing this, Zhong Yebai nodded confidently.

At this moment, a voice sounded in the ranks of the victims, speaking from an old man in rags, with a bent waist and a yellow face, thinking that he had not eaten for several days.

"This kind son, we have been to Chen County before, and Chen County has also been affected this time, I am afraid that there will be no surplus food!"

"Oh?" Zhong Yebai pulled the reins, stopped and asked the victim who spoke, "When did the old man go to Chen County?"

The old man stretched out three fingers, "Three days ago!"

Zhong Yebai laughed, and he didn't know whether to comfort himself or the old man. "It's okay, you don't have a place to go anyway, so why don't you try your luck with me!"

When the old man heard this, he smiled bitterly, isn't what this boy said exactly the situation of these disaster victims at this time? Fleeing from the famine, they have come from Yanzhou and Yuzhou, and they have walked thousands of miles, and there are already dozens of cities passing by, but which one city is willing to take in these disaster victims?

All the way to the north, they have reached the territory of Qingzhou, still there is no place to live, and further north, is Jizhou, if Jizhou still does not take them in?

At this moment, another voice sounded, "Don't worry, with this kind-hearted son, he will definitely help us get food!" The one who spoke was a sturdy man, his clothes were still ragged, and his face was covered with dust and mud, but he still couldn't hide his spirit.

Zhong Yebai glanced at the man and nodded and smiled at him as a sign of gratitude.

Seeing this, Gao Jian quietly came to Zhong Yebai's side, and whispered to Zhong Yebai, "His Royal Highness, I just secretly counted our people, and there is this person." This person seems to be speaking for His Royal Highness, but in fact, he harbors evil intentions, and he is roasting His Royal Highness on the fire. ”

Zhong Yebai's smile did not change, and he whispered to Gao Jian, "I know! Keep an eye on them! By the way, did the people sent find out whose carriage it is?"

"It has been ascertained, and I was about to report to His Highness that the carriage was ridden by the concubine of Qingzhou Taishou, who returned from her mother's house, and did not want to encounter accidents. ”

Zhong Yebai pondered for a long time, and muttered something that no one had heard, "Well, this gift still has to be sent to Qingzhou Taishou, so that he owes me a favor, in case he can use it in the future!"
