Chapter 81: I Believe in You
I have a solution, but I still need to ask you for a favor. Ye Luwu spoke softly, piercing the chaos and the general silence.
"How about selling all the clothes and bedding that you have unused clothes and bedding in your house, no matter how much you want?"
As soon as the words fell, an old voice in the crowd retorted: "Little girl, it's just nonsense. It's freezing outside the city, and the most important thing at the moment is to give them enough to eat, and then have a place to live, what's the use of just giving some bedding!"
Ye Luwu didn't know who he was, but it was not good to refute the old minister's face in public, so he had to hold back his anger and said: "I don't know if the adults have a solution? Even if the Manchu Dynasty and the military all take out the surplus food at home, how long can the Haohao refugees last? Or did the adults already know that there would be today's events, so they made preparations in advance?"
Her voice was full of violent, and her sentences were sonorous, and the old minister couldn't say half a word of rebuttal, and stood in place with a red face.
"As long as you can provide enough bedding, the little girl will be completely sure that the refugees outside the city will be well resettled! If it doesn't work, the little girl is willing to give up the Hanling Township Junfu for the refugees to live in!"
After these words, some people have already been moved. She boasted like this, if this matter is done, she will be considered to have merit, and if this matter is not successful, it will not involve herself.
Everyone was talking in a low voice, all waiting for Xu Mingchuan's final decision.
He pondered for a moment, then raised the corners of his mouth lightly at Ye Luwu, and said loudly: "I believe you, but if this matter is not successful, it has nothing to do with you, and all the consequences will be borne by me." β
Ye Luwu's long eyelashes moved, hiding the thousands of stars in his eyes: "Then please send a message back to your home, and quickly send your clothes and bedding to the south city gate." If you are interested, go with us. β
Everyone was already curious, and when they heard this, they hurriedly ordered their subordinates to put up the frame. On the street, horse-drawn carriages stood side by side, sedan chairs were rampant, and a group of people headed towards the south city gate.
Lin Chen did not come with him because he wanted to escort the twelve women to the Taishou Yamen.
After sending off the guests in the hall, someone hurriedly brought two horses, and then said to Ye Luwu: "Xiangjun, your carriage is now outside the door, and the coachman is already waiting." β
Ye Luwu nodded, turned to Xu Mingchuan and said, "I'll go get something, and I'll be there later." β
The two of them turned over their horses together, their iron hooves running over the white slush, and stepped away.
Only then did she step out of the gate and said to the coachman, "You drive the carriage back to the house by yourself, and tell the period to send those things to the south gate as soon as possible." β
Then he flew into the carriage and took out his usual sword, and put the heavy cloak in the car. Then he shook off the pair of steps in the hair, and then took out a plain white silk purse from the dark compartment and put it in his arms, got out of the carriage and went away.
Several subordinates were dumbfounded, until they couldn't even see her red sword tail, and then they came back to their senses and muttered: "Xiangjun's ability, I'm afraid that I will soon become an immortal......
Although she went out late, and had wasted a lot of effort in the carriage, she did not have to be subject to the control of the streets, and when everyone came down from the chariot sedan chair, she moved her right hand slightly, and the whole person fell from the sky, leaving a faint shadow in the air.
"This ...... You...... You're flying here?!" I don't know whose voice came through the black oppressive crowd, and the place was full of incredulity.
Ye Luwu turned around and smiled, her upright figure stood alone on the high city wall, in the wind and snow, in the towering clouds, only the red plum on her dress was colored. She stood there and said nothing, as if the red sun had appeared at the end of the summer rain, and the miserable world was illuminated. The clouds and shadows are miserable, and the dews are scattered, even in the winter when a hundred flowers are killed, this smile is like suppressing thousands of flowers.
When Xu Mingchuan just walked to the city wall, he saw such a scene.
Everyone consciously parted to the sides, and he stepped forward step by step, and the thick snow could not hide the unparalleled eyebrows of the person in front of him, and his spirit was flying.
"You don't ask me anything, don't you believe me, aren't you afraid that I'll implicate you?" she said softly.
Xu Mingchuan's eyes moved slightly, and he said in a deep voice: "You are enough for me to treat me like this." β
Just now, Ye Luwu fell with his sword, not to mention the people on the city wall, and even the refugees trapped outside the city could see it clearly.
Kyoto Castle is a very safe city, and there is a protectorate sitting here, so all kinds of demons dare not approach. Therefore, these ordinary people have never seen a cultivator. In their hearts, those who can draw a few spells can be called "immortal chief". And today, when I saw someone like her, I thought that the immortals had come to the world, and the black pressed a group of people and knelt on the ground in a moment.
"The sky has eyes! the gods have come to save us!" the shouts of one after another converged into a song, and the darkness went straight up to the sky.
After this voice subsided, Xu Mingchuan took a step forward, stood side by side with Ye Luwu at the top of the city wall, and said loudly: "As the crown prince, this palace will share the weal and woe with you from now on!
He is a dignified prince, and he stands in the wind like this, and he never even holds up an umbrella. This attitude instantly suppressed the anger of the refugees being locked out, and the crowd soon fell silent.
Ye Luwu's right hand was slowly raised, his two fingers stood side by side in front of his chest, and his left hand was held under his palm, and Qing Yue's voice chanted an ancient and obscure incantation, slowly spreading from top to bottom.
A small pale golden circle appeared under her feet, and a soft red light appeared in the palm of her hand, and then spread extremely quickly, and the rich crimson enchantment enveloped most of the southern city wall.
Everywhere the barrier passed, the temperature was as warm as a spring day, and those refugees who were thinly dressed were now wide-eyed, reaching out incredibly to feel the warm air, and some even ran to the edge of the barrier and carefully touched it.
The formation was completed, Ye Luwu lowered his arms and took out a jade white and lustrous scale from his purse.
Her eyes closed slightly, her lips moved slightly, and the scales rose faintly into the air, and then glowed with a blinding golden light, illuminating half of the dim sky.
The ground outside the city began to shake slightly, and the masonry slowly rose from the ground, dividing the earth into cubes. People hurriedly stepped over the not yet tall masonry and stood among the squares.
At this time, the masonry continued to rise at an accelerated pace, and in a long time a simple house appeared under the city wall.
Only then did the refugees come out of their houses, and the bedding that the officials had promised to send was now being pulled by wooden carts to the city gates.
Xu Mingchuan's smile was deep, and he ordered loudly: "Open the city gate!"
"Open the gatesβ"
With the words of the officers and soldiers defending the city, the hinges moved, and the heavy city gate was lowered inch by inch.
As the first batch of bedding arrived, the ministers immediately instructed those who followed them to send the idle bedding in their own house as soon as possible. Later, some lamp grease tables and chairs were also sent.
