"Can you tell who those are?" Su Fengche's voice sounded again, and the coachman sitting in front of the carriage hurriedly replied, "Childe, I can't tell who it is, but they don't seem to have weapons in their hands, so they shouldn't be people on the battlefield." ”

"Let's stop here for a moment and see how it goes." At this time, they had reached the border pass, and the carriage was surrounded by people, and they could not move forward or retreat, and now their situation had entered a dilemma.

Because there are often wars at the border gates, it is difficult to distinguish whether it is a soldier or a common man. Since they couldn't see each other's origins clearly, they could only stay where they were and didn't dare to move forward.

Because of the wars from time to time, many people at the border gates have lost their homes or sources of expenses, and they can only wander around the border gates every day.

The village near the border pass is in ruins, and there is no longer a village from a distance. In the sparsely scattered rebuilt thatched huts, the old and weak women and children everywhere are all hiding in the thatched huts, and the man who was supposed to be the breadwinner of the family has also become thin and weak because of perennial hunger.

The corpses of old and young people can be seen everywhere on the village floor, and some have even begun to decompose, emitting a foul smell, but no one cares about it.

Just when they were hungry and cold, they saw the carriage that was now heading towards the border pass, and as if a wild beast had seen its prey, a group of people swarmed up. "Quick! Look, it's a carriage..."One of them said excitedly, but because he was so hungry that he didn't even have the strength to speak, he could only talk intermittently.

When everyone heard this, they rushed to the carriage that had just entered the border gate. It didn't take long for Su Fengche's carriage to be surrounded by people, and the coachman was even more frightened when he saw this scene, leaving only Su Fengche and Shen Yuemei in the carriage.

The people at the border began to attack the carriage, stretching out their hands to knock on their carriage, and Shen Yuemei at this time was also woken up by the sound of banging on the carriage.

"Huh? Ah Che, we're already at the border now? Shen Yuemei, who was sleepy-eyed, hadn't noticed their situation at this time. She rubbed her eyes, and after a while, she suddenly woke up, and she heard the voices of many people outside, even the sound of the horse-drawn carriage, and suddenly felt very frightened. "Ache? This..."

Shen Yuemei had the courage to reach out and open the curtain by the window, only to see that the black pressure outside was full of people, so frightened that she retracted her hand to open the curtain. looked at Su Fengche beside him in a panic, not knowing what to do.

"Yuemei, don't panic, I'm here!" Saying that, Su Fengche endured the panic and uneasiness in his heart, and then held his sword a little nervously and was always ready, worried that those people outside the carriage would attack at any time.

The two of them waited in the carriage for a while, and found that those people did not intend to attack, but kept banging on the carriage outside the carriage. This made the two of them a little puzzled, "Ah Che, they don't seem to have any intention of attacking in." ”

"Hmm." Su Fengche frowned a little puzzled, and Shen Yuemei beside her was also very nervous, she opened the curtain again to take a closer look, and found that the people around their carriage were hungry people begging for food.

The two of them immediately breathed a sigh of relief, and Su Fengche's hand that was originally holding the sword was also loosened. "Ah Che, they look like ordinary people who are helpless, they should just beg us for food, what should we do now?"

After Su Fengche knew that there were only ordinary people outside, he felt a little relieved, "There are too many people now, let's find a way to escape from here first, and then discuss the disaster relief matter." Shen Yuemei nodded in agreement. Su Fengche grabbed her hand tightly, and the two rushed out of the carriage together and ran to the nearby Shang.

The people behind them chased after them for a while, and it was not long before they lost their strength due to perennial hunger.

Finally escaped from those crowds with Su Fengche, and the two ran all the way to the nearby town, and the two found an inn in the town, thinking that the two of them had been on the road for a day, and they entered the inn to eat something without eating.

"Little Er!" Su Fengche called the shopkeeper and simply ordered two dishes, but the dishes that came up were all some good things.

Just as the two of them were puzzled, "Little Er! We didn't order any of them. "At this time, it was not the shopkeeper of this inn, but the local official who didn't know when Su Fengche arrived.

"See Your Highness, the lower official is the local official here, Wang Shouzhi. Knowing the arrival of His Highness today, he waited at this time early. Su Fengche looked at the local officials in front of him, dressed in better materials, looking at his ruddy face, he estimated that life was very comfortable.

"What's going on?" Su Fengche retracted his gaze and asked him. Wang Shouzhi owed his body, and then replied, "Your Highness should naturally eat something good when you come here." ”

Su Fengche couldn't help frowning when he listened to his natural answer, and looked at him again, feeling that this person was full of red faces, and thinking of the people he had met before, like he was begging for food, he couldn't help but feel a little dissatisfied in his heart. Thinking that the people under his jurisdiction have become like this, he is living a good life, and he does not feel that there is anything wrong with it.

Su Fengche suddenly suspected this local official, he thought that it was Wang Shouzhi who deliberately withheld the money, which led to the occurrence of this disaster, and made these ordinary people live in dire straits, but he didn't care at all, as if he didn't know about it at all, which made Su Fengche feel very angry.

"Take all of this down and bring up the ones I ordered." Su Fengche said with a straight face, and the smile on Wang Shouzhi's face, which was originally smiling next to him, disappeared when he heard his words.

In his heart, he was very dissatisfied with Su Fengche, and felt that this person seemed to be deliberate. But Wang Shouzhi thought that this person was sent by the emperor after all, so although he had a lot of dissatisfaction in his heart, he still didn't show it in front of him.

Wang Shouzhi hurriedly called Xiao Er as he wished, "Remove all these and serve them according to His Highness's wishes." ”

The shopkeeper was stunned, and then removed the things on the table and replaced them with the dishes that Su Fengche had ordered before, and then he and Shen Yuemei began to eat satisfied.

Wang Shouzhi, who was standing on the side, glanced at it and did not speak. And Su Fengche felt a little awkward that there were people standing next to him eating, so he said to him, "Let's sit down and eat some together." Wang Shouzhi didn't dare to offend him, so he sat down, but Wang Shouzhi, who had been eating first-class food, looked at these ordinary dishes in front of him, and it was difficult to swallow them at all.

In order not to offend Su Fengche, Wang Shouzhi could only eat the dishes on the table, Su Fengche, who was sitting on the side, saw all these in his eyes, he naturally knew that Wang Shouzhi was not used to eating these things.

Seeing that Wang Shouzhi didn't say anything, he deliberately didn't mention it, and sure enough, Wang Shouzhi couldn't stand it anymore when he ate the third bite, he could only shirk and say that he couldn't eat it, Su Fengche didn't say anything and continued to eat.

After Shen Yuemei and Su Fengche finished eating, it was not early, and Su Fengche was ready to stay in this inn, "Little Er!" Prepare a room. And Wang Shouzhi beside him said: "Your Highness, how can you sleep in an ordinary room here, or let Xiaguan prepare a good guest room for you and your wife?" ”

Su Fengche glanced at him coldly, and then said with a smile, "Thank you for your kindness, let's stay in an ordinary guest room." Saying that, Su Fengche asked Xiao Er to help him sort out a guest room.

And Wang Shouzhi, who was repeatedly rejected by Su Fengche on the side, was a little unhappy in an instant, he originally just wanted to please Su Fengche, let him not meddle in his affairs, stay at the border and stay happily for a while, and then go back to the palace to resume his life, but he didn't expect this Su Fengche to be so stubborn, and he didn't pay attention to everything he specially arranged.

Seeing that Xiao Er had already tidied up the guest room, Su Fengche smiled and said to Wang Shouzhi, "Thank you for your hospitality today, it's not early now, we should also rest, you better go back and rest early." ”

Wang Shouzhi shook the two pieces of meat on his face, and said, "Your Highness is serious, please ask Your Highness to rest early, and the lower official will retire." After speaking, Wang Shouzhi saluted, and then left the inn, Su Fengche looked at his departing back coldly, then turned his head and smiled, took Shen Yuemei's hand, and the two went upstairs together.

Because it was getting late today, the two of them rested early until tomorrow morning, and there were more things waiting for the two to deal with.

Early the next morning, the two got up early and came to the disaster relief place together, Shen Yuemei, set up a soup kitchen, and gave porridge with Su Fengche.

What they didn't expect was that the effect of this soup kitchen was very bad, and these people were hungry for many years, causing them to get carried away as soon as they smelled the smell of food, and ran madly towards their soup kitchen.

The two didn't expect to be robbed by the people, and when they saw this, they immediately panicked and didn't know what to do.

After the two of them reacted, they wanted to step forward and stop these people from robbing, but they didn't expect that the situation in front of them would be completely uncontrollable by Su Fengche and Shen Yuemei.

There were more and more people surrounding and looting, and Shen Yuemei saw that there were many people running towards this side behind them, and even some women and children couldn't take their children to rob them because of their weak strength, for fear that the children would be injured.

Shen Yuemei, who saw the scene in front of her, couldn't bear it, so she stepped forward to stop her, "Stop!" Stop, don't grab it! Yes! Unexpectedly, those people seemed to have completely lost their minds, and they couldn't listen to Shen Yuemei's kind persuasion at all, and even pushed her aside, causing her to be accidentally injured.
