Jiang Qiao and his party hardly rested except at night, and they hurried all the way, and finally arrived in the distant Weicheng before April. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

When they arrived in Weicheng, they learned that not only Qingfeng County had requisitioned and transferred conscription, but there were nearly 20,000 people in the rest of the country!

All parts of the country are far away from Weicheng, and Qingfeng County is far away, almost belonging to the last batch. Jiang Qiao roughly calculated when he was bored, there were only five or six hundred people in Qingfeng County out of 20,000 people, including one hundred and forty-seven people in Qinghe Village.

The people of Qingfeng County were arranged to replace the recruits who had arrived in Weicheng first. Those people were all people from Weicheng and its vicinity, and as soon as the Weicheng Order found out that Weihe was wrong, he immediately recruited people to come over.

In other words, before Jiang Qiao and them hit the road, these people were already building embankments. They have been ramming the riverbank for more than a month.

Qin Ziqing took a few more looks, and found that those people were like being pulled out of the mud, everyone was basically expressionless, their eyes were dull and numb, and they ...... He glanced at the sunken cheeks of those men, and no longer had any hope for the surplus food in Weicheng.

"Get to work! Don't grind! The little official of the River Supervision Department pushed Qin Ziqing, turned his head and whipped another man on the back, "If you are lazy, Lao Tzu will fill you in the river!" ”

"How do you fight ......" Qin Ziyuan couldn't get used to the barbarism of that little official, and was about to theorize, when Jiang Qiao covered his mouth and pressed him into Qin Ziqing's arms.

"Hmm!" Qin Ziyuan stared and wanted to struggle, but he was obviously not his brother's opponent.

Jiang Qiao Chong looked back at their little official and smiled, and dragged Qin Xiaodi to the river embankment with Qin Ziqing.

"How can he hit someone!" Qin Ziyuan was still angry: "Those recruits are not criminals, they are all ordinary people, they came to build the embankment to be loyal to the country, how can they ......?"

"You're also a husband now." Jiang Qiao patted Junior Brother Qin's head, sighed at his childish nature, and glanced at Qin Ziqing again: "What did you find?" ”

Qin Ziqing frowned, "Weicheng itself is not big, and now there are 20,000 people gathered, and there are ...... to eat and live."

None of them had finished speaking, but they understood each other.

Weicheng accommodates so many people at once, the place where they live must be very crowded, and the food is ...... Just look at the ones that came first. Originally, he couldn't eat or sleep well, and he had to work hard, but the river supervisor also indulged his subordinates to bully and recruit their husbands - something was going to happen in Weicheng sooner or later.

"Xiao Yuan, it's no better than at home outside, don't be willful!" Qin Ziqing immediately began to admonish Qin Ziyuan. His younger brother is good everywhere, but he is easy to be impulsive and does things recklessly.

Jiangqiao stood high and looked into the distance, and his eyes were either the vast yellow turbid river or the dense turning of people's heads, and the mud that was dug up was red and yellow, which made him think of the Yellow River inexplicably. In my impression, the Yellow River also flooded several times in ancient times, and there seems to be a legend of "one eye of the stone man".

Thinking of Shiren, he immediately thought of the peasant uprising, Jiang Qiao's heart jumped, and he had a bad premonition.

He didn't want to get involved in the war, and his mother was waiting for him to go back and marry his daughter-in-law. Besides, Daqi is already in deep trouble, and if he messes up again, he will be profited by the fisherman! Jiang Qiao said that after a few hundred years, the ethnic groups will be integrated and they will all be a family, but it does not mean that he is willing to be a slave to a foreigner!

"Work first." Jiang Qiao only hoped that he was thinking too much, so he shoveled a shovel of soil and explained to Qin Ziqing in a low voice.

The two brothers of the Qin family have been conquered by Mr. Jiang's charm and food along the way, and Qin Ziqing believes in Jiang Qiao and is willing to listen to him. And now there really is no other good idea than to adapt to everything without change. Can't they sneak back to Qinghe Village again? "Da Qi Law" is not for play, and his father's life is still missing!

Building embankments is also considered technical work, Jiang Qiao is the first time they have done it, and the river supervisor has not gone crazy to let them go to the front line, and the people from Qingfeng County have arranged manual work. But shoveling and transporting soil in the rear is indeed not a good job, the skin and flesh are as thick as Jiang Mu's shell, and Jiang Qiao's palm is blistered.

Mr. Jiang is still like this, not to mention the two scholars of the Qin family. Qin Ziqing was stronger, his legs were trapped in the mud, and he was more or less stable when shoveling soil; Junior Brother Qin is a real white chicken, Wenwen is weak and a little scholar, and it is difficult to hold a shovel, and in the end, when he is in a hurry, he throws the shovel and squats there to grab it with his hands.

Jiang Qiao looked at Qin Ziyuan's fierce energy, he really couldn't cry or laugh, shook his head and helped him shovel a few shovels, so that he could fool the few overseers and prevent him from being whipped again.

"It's time to eat—"

It was not until dusk that several people were so hungry that they could not hold shovels, and the shouts rang out from afar on the shore.

The water is used to drink, and there is muddy water all around, Jiang Qiao didn't want to find a place to wash his hands, and then looked at the two mud figures around him, he sighed, and felt that he should not be poor and exquisite.

However, God didn't even give them a chance to be unsophisticated.

The villagers in Qingfeng County obviously did not have a deep understanding of how tight the food supply in Weicheng was, and they were still wiping their faces and hands one by one.

Junior Brother Qin looked at the scene like a locust crossing after the crowd dispersed, and wanted to cry without tears.

He is not the only one who wants to cry, everyone who has not eaten wants to cry, but if there is no more, there is no more, and it is impossible for the Weicheng Order to make another one for them. Dejectedly, they followed the large army out of the Wei River, and all of them felt their stomachs throb with hunger.

The food brought by the Qin brothers had already been eaten halfway, and Mr. Jiang was sitting on a million granaries, but he had to be able to take it out properly!

The river supervisors led the five or six hundred men to a small hill not far from the Wei River, where a few large grass huts were simply erected on all sides, and some wheat straw was laid on the ground, and there were no quilts. The previous speculation was confirmed, but Qin Ziqing was not happy, he hugged Qin Ziyuan, who had already collapsed, and felt deeply confused.

- This is the great Qi that Dad wants them to serve?

Jiang Qiao touched Qin Ziyuan's forehead, knowing that he didn't have a fever before he was relieved. Bundled the luggage of the three people together and handed it to Qin Ziqing, and he explained: "I'll go find something to eat." Then he turned and went into the darkness of the night.

It is inevitable that a few trees will grow on the hills, and when there are more trees, they will naturally become forests. Jiang Qiao touched it for a while, and found that the forest had been drilled by others, and everything that could be eaten was probably taken clean.

Sighing, Jiang Qiao sat under a big tree and thought about life.

What happens if he goes to the exam? Touching the blood bubbles in his palm, he thought that when he arrived in Kyoto, he should be able to know Ah Jiang's identity, and maybe he could see her again. And then take another sweet potato champion like she said? Why do you need to be so troublesome, according to the country's urgent need for food, he directly showed those grains, and it is estimated that he can exchange for half of the country!

But what's the point? It is impossible for his mother to go to Kyoto with him, and the dog is not suitable to follow him through those days of intrigue, and he himself is not uncommon to be the emperor of the soil......

It was obviously not something that Jiang would do if he made a decision and then regret it, but he didn't know why he always had to think about the choice that he rejected in the first place.

He can only comfort himself: This is also good, when the river embankment is repaired, go back to marry a daughter-in-law, maybe there will be no feelings, but he can also raise his eyebrows for a lifetime, maybe he will have a few children and raise them with dogs, and then marry them a girl he likes......

The moon was half-hidden through the layers of dark clouds, and Jiang Qiao suddenly remembered that today was twenty-four again. He looked left and right and still didn't feel at ease, and finally took a few fruits from the space with his mind without a trace, and walked to the grass hut with the corner of his clothes.

"Brother Qiao." Qin Ziyuan had already relieved himself, and he was waiting for Jiang Qiao to come back from looking for food.

"A few fruits, let's eat them."

Jiang Qiao and the two brothers shared the fruit that tasted a little like tomatoes, and each lay down with their burdens on their pillows.

"I'm sleeping very dead, remember to call me if there is any movement."

"Hmm!" Qin Ziqing promised to come down.

Jiang Qiao believed him, and when he heard the response, he immediately let his spirit enter the space.
