When the victims saw Chen Jinye coming, a little light appeared in their gloomy eyes, and the remaining dozens of people stood up from the corners and alleys one after another, silently gathered over, old people on crutches, women with babies in their arms, and thin men, they longed for Chen Jinye to give them hope, but they didn't know that Chen Jinye's heart was not much brighter than them at this time.

Xiao Si pulled Hong Ling to stand on the periphery of the crowd, Hong Ling looked at Chen Jinye who had been busy all night from a distance, his face was a little dark, there was a little tiredness hidden between his eyebrows, he pursed his thin lips and quietly looked at the people who gathered, he didn't speak, but he already had a strong enough majesty to give people the greatest sense of security.

Hongling slowly lowered her head and curled the corners of her mouth slightly, then sighed slightly, and slowly sat back on the stone steps, what these people needed was Chen Jinye, she leaned against the wall tiredly, her eyes narrowed slightly.

Xiao Si looked back at Hongling, and when he saw her tired appearance, he stopped making a sound, and looked at Chen Jinye with a burning look, Childe hadn't said a word since he got off the uncovered carriage, he was very curious, what Childe would take everyone to do today.

Now that the sun has just risen, the people who have just woken up from their sleep are inevitably a little hungry, and there are a few rumbling stomachs in the quiet air from time to time, Chen Jinye can hear it clearly, so he slowly said in a suppressed silence: "Let's first catch up the net from yesterday and see if there are any fish."

Chen Jinye just said a simple word, and the victims suddenly seemed to be motivated, and without Chen Jinye saying another word, they scattered around and got busy, the young people went to catch fish and fetch water, the old people helped collect firewood, and the women set up the pots, everything was in order as if nothing had happened last night.

Chen Jinye sat silently next to Hongling, looking at the busy people around him, Bai Ju glanced at Xiao Si, and Xiao Si followed Bai Ju to join the people's work, and after a while, there was a lively laughter in the crowd, Chen Jinye was a little in a trance, so that he was a little unsure whether the bloodstained evil thing really happened last night.

Hong Ling looked at the crowd, then at Chen Jinye, and hooked the corners of her mouth with relief, "Although busyness will make people tired, it will also make people forget the pain temporarily."

Chen Jinye looked sideways at Hongling, her face was covered with a faint layer of soil, her hair was a little messy, and the sweat that flowed from time to time quietly drew on her face, but she didn't know it, but she was so unkempt that she made him stunned for a while.

Chen Jinye's stunned appearance made Hongling frown slightly, and then slowly raised his hand and waved it in front of his eyes, jokingly: "Didn't you also have 'scumbag disease'?" Hongling didn't say that it was okay, but this statement reminded Chen Jinye again, only to see him lock his brows faintly, and asked with a little sincerity between his eyebrows: "You don't seem to have told me last time, what is this scumbag disease?" ”。

Hongling was slightly stunned, and then hurriedly staggered her eyes, but muttered in her heart, he asked so seriously, didn't he really treat his nonsense as a serious illness? Or was he worried that the disease would be contagious, that he had passed it on to him?

Thinking of this, Hongling immediately explained: "Don't worry, don't worry, this is just an ordinary disease, and it won't be contagious."

"Is this disease contagious?"

Chen Jinye looked at Hong Ling seriously with his eyebrows, and analyzed Hong Ling's words very seriously in his heart, it seems that this disease is indeed a tricky and incurable disease, and he only hates that when he was in Wangcheng, he always forgot to ask his master for advice.

"No, no, no, no"

Hong Ling stiffened her neck and hurriedly denied it, if Chen Jinye inexplicably thought that this was some kind of highly diffuse bad disease, he would have to isolate himself, then he would have it!

Looking at Hongling's anxious appearance of squeezing her eyebrows, Chen Jinye smiled, and then straightened her face again, and made a promise: "Don't be afraid, when you return to Wangcheng in the future, I will find a famous doctor to take a look at you."

Hearing this, Hong Ling breathed a sigh of relief, it seemed that he believed his words, and then he found a doctor to come over and prescribe a few pills for him, and he fooled over, seeing that Hong Ling had no objections, Chen Jinye looked out again, and in the distance, Bai Ju and everyone were carrying fish buckets together.

Hong Ling followed Chen Jinye and looked in that direction, and could see that today's harvest should also be good, Xiao Si's face was almost handwritten and hung on it, Hong Ling was infected by this emotion, so she couldn't help but be happy, so she dragged Chen Jinye, "Let's go and help too."

"Good"

The two of them slowly got up and walked towards Bai Ju and Xiao Si and the others, Xiao Si was a little more excited when he saw Chen Jinye coming over, but it was Bai Ju, with a hint of blush on his face.

Seeing this, Hong Ling raised her eyebrows slightly, and quipped: "Which girl did Bai Gongzi see today, why did he blush?" ”。

Being asked by Hong Ling, Bai Ju's already somewhat red face suddenly turned red to the root of his ears, and his movements were even more uncomfortable and twisted a few times, before he scratched his head and looked at Hong Ling very embarrassed, and said, "This morning, offended", after that, before Hong Ling's surprised expression could form, he crossed the crowd carrying the fish bucket to the side of the pot set up by the woman.

Although Hong Ling felt a little inexplicable, Chen Jinye really understood Bai Ju's meaning, and then slowly said: "It seems that he has seen the results of your cleaning."

As soon as Chen Jinye's words fell, Xiao Si added with a smile: "Not only that, but the villagers today praise the girl, if it weren't for the girl, their faces wouldn't be so refreshing", Xiao Si's words fell, but it was Hongling's turn to be a little embarrassed, but Chen Jinye was slightly puzzled and asked, "What does this have to do with her?" ”。

"Childe doesn't know, the girl cleaned her face for the villagers early in the morning"

Chen Jinye was slightly stunned, and slowly lowered her head to look at Hongling's side face, she would actually wipe her face for the victims in person? Hongling waved her hand embarrassedly, and then blushed slightly and went to the side of the road to find a trigger for ignition.

Chen Jinye watched Hongling run away embarrassedly, but she was also a little curious in her heart, how she cleaned up the alley, how could she make the stubborn person in Baiju ashamed, thinking, Chen Jinye slowly paced the originally smelly alley.

Originally, the blood stains here are not to be said, they are all over the road, and the blood is also extremely pungent, and now, in addition to the speckled blood stars on the wall, the road is clean as if it has been repaved, and even the strong and unpleasant smell is almost none, Chen Jinye was a little surprised and a little curious, how did she do it.

At this moment, Xiao Si appeared behind Chen Jinye, and a slightly childish but hoarse voice sounded from behind, "Childe, Bai Gongzi said that you are going to the Xicheng River this afternoon to check the situation of the dam, can you take me with you?" ”。

Chen Jinye turned his head to look at Xiao Si behind him, but his eyebrows wrinkled in confusion, how could Bai Ju inform Xiao Si about this? Chen Jinye didn't hide this doubt, so he asked Xiao Si.

Xiao Si said: "Childe, don't be angry, I begged Bai Gongzi to tell me."

Even so, Chen Jinye still felt a little strange, Bai Ju was not a person who would casually talk about this, why did he suddenly tell him about going to Xichenghe today? So he asked Xiao Si in detail.

It turned out that Bai Ju saw that this place was very clean, and Xiao Si was very excited to tell him how he and Hongling pulled the cart and how they shoveled the soil over and over again, after a few words, Bai Ju felt that his words to her in the morning were a little heavy no matter how he considered, and his heart was entangled and full of regret, and the little four next to him always muttered from time to time how the girl was good to the people, how to do her best, and even refuted the domineering words he said in the morning one by one, so that the guilt in Bai Ju's heart was even worse, So he expressed his guilt through Xiao Si, who was very enthusiastic about the prince, and as for the method of expression, that is, he told Xiao Si that the prince was going to Xicheng River today.

After listening to Xiao Si's explanation, Chen Jinye couldn't help but sigh slightly, who let Bai Ju be about the same age as himself and be the person who accompanied him the longest among the many guards, and the entire palace and even Nanzhao could no longer find someone like him who didn't treat himself as an outsider, thinking of this, Chen Jinye couldn't help but smile again, just like Liu Ling'er, since he met it, he will bear it.

"Do you really want to go?"

Hearing Chen Jinye's rhetorical question, Xiao Sidang's eyes widened and he said firmly: "Yes."

"In that case, you will come with us on the road."

Hearing Chen Jinye's affirmative reply, Xiao Si pinched himself hard, and the strong pain stimulated Xiao Si to shout excitedly in Xiao Si's thin body at the same time, "Childe agreed!" Promised! ”。

Looking at Xiao Si's excited appearance, the haze in Chen Jinye's heart was also slightly dispelled, and he couldn't help but hook the corners of his mouth, and then went to the depths of Xicheng where the people were working.

In the distance, Hongling was bending down and gathering in front of the pot stove with everyone to make a fire, and the clean faces of women and children were shining with bright smiles.

Many years later, whenever Hongling recalls this past, she can't stop saying: "The real king has such a calming power, although this power is invisible, but it is the most powerful."

When the stove was set up and the fish was cooked, the sun was already hanging in the air, but fortunately, it was still early, and after eating with the people, Bai Ju took the lead in returning to the vassal king's mansion and drove a carriage out, picked up Chen Jinye, Hongling, and Xiaosi, and went to Xicheng River together......
