Chapter 14: Danger
"Back to the third master, the Chamber of Commerce in Pingzhou City has indeed had a big change recently. They didn't know where they heard the news that they would be affected this year, and they gathered a large amount of grain in the city. The guard suddenly came to Liu Wenyu's room.
Liu Wenyu paced back and forth in the room. Although I had a faint feeling before, when I heard the news, I was still dizzy, why didn't Yancheng get the news? Who planned this incident, and was it aimed at the Yancheng Liu family?
Is the flooding of Yunwu Lake a natural disaster or a man-made disaster? If it was human, I couldn't imagine it. Thinking of the seriousness of the disaster this time, Liu Wenyu was a little frightened. And those who lost their lives and loved ones because of the floods, what are they in the eyes of those people?

"Miss, Young Master Chang'an said that you should prepare everything, there may be danger here at any time, if there is really something, you should be prepared." Akimi hurried over, as if something big had happened.
"Brother, do you see anything?" Changning asked.
"Young Master Chang'an instructed the slave maid to buy a few messages. Knowing that the flooding in Lianzhou may have been caused by man, the displaced people are scattering to Pingzhou, and some are even on their way to Yancheng. "Autumn is a little anxious.
"Ahh Changning never thought that his brother, who was only twelve years old, would have these channels, and some of them could not be reflected.
"There are lesson plans in Zongxue, Miss don't be too surprised, when Miss goes to Zongxue, she will know these things." Qiu Shi saw Changningdi's thoughts.
"Oh." Changning has to sigh that the elite education model of the family here is indeed extraordinary.
"Where did my brother go?" Changning was curious, why didn't his father buy the news yesterday.
"Young Master Chang'an went to the third master to talk about these things." Qiu Shi replied quickly.
"Oh, is it expensive to buy these messages?" Changning felt that if he also had these channels, he might be safer in the future. After all, news is very important both in life and in war.
"Young Master Chang'an mortgaged the inferior magic weapon given by the old lady on his tenth birthday." Qiu Shi felt a little painful, it was a magic weapon.
"Inferior magic weapons, why don't they grab them?" Changning said loudly.
"The news of Yipinlou is so expensive, but their news is more than 95% credible."
When Changning was depressed, Chang'an pushed the door and came in.
"Ning'er, are you ready?" The long one is wearing a samurai uniform made of blue satin.
"Brother, my things are all in the bracelet. Nothing to prepare. Do you need me to help you pack some? ”
"No, I don't have many things, and it's safer to put important things on me." The long hair touched the magic weapon that the ** milk gave to him.
"Brother, why do you want to use the magic weapon to buy news?" Changning was a little puzzled.
"I don't know, when I heard that the City Lord's Mansion was robbed in the morning, I felt that something was wrong, and I felt that I should do something, so I asked Sister Qiu Shi to buy the news." Chang'an was a little bitter when he spoke, and when he went to find his father just now, Qingfeng and Qingshuang were telling their father about their worries. When did you stop confiding in your father when you were worried, scared, or sad? It seems to have started when he understood his father's intention of sending Qingfeng to the Bai family, and it seemed that he saw his father's surprised and loving expression when he hugged Qingshuang for the first time.
Changning sensitively felt his brother's strangeness, and remembered that his brother's first reaction when he felt that he was in danger was to use his cherished magic weapon to go outside to inquire about the news to confirm whether he was safe now, instead of seeking refuge from his father. I feel a little distressed, brother, why are you so sensitive, sometimes you have to be confused.
"My brother has grown up, and my sister can rest assured that my brother will protect me." Changning chuckled and said goodbye.
Chang'an's eyes lit up, he will grow up sooner or later, it is better to grow up early, not only to protect himself, but also to protect his mother and sister.
"I just heard from my father that the merchants in the city had stockpiled a large amount of grain some time ago, and one of them was near here. If there are displaced people who do come here, we are likely to be affected by the chaos of the displaced people. Father has decided not to wait for news from the guards, and we have to rush back to Yancheng. After this turmoil has passed, I will go to Shengjing. "Chang'an didn't know if it was too late, and felt a little nervous.
"Oh, well, it seems like it's not safe here. It's better to go back quickly. Hehe, we're really disadvantageous this time. The first time I went out, I was only halfway to turn around. Changning joked, hoping to liven up the atmosphere so as not to be too nervous.
"Who's to say it isn't. Maybe Dongyue will be chaotic for a long time. I hope it doesn't affect Yancheng. Chang'an sighed, fortunately he was in the Liu family, and he was very suspicious of how Yunwu Lake could be flooded, it was the largest and deepest lake in Dongyue, and there had never been a flood.
"Hehe, what do you learn in Zongxue? It seems to be quite effective. Changning changed the topic, and he was indeed quite curious about Zongxue in his heart.
"You'll find out when you go later. The matter of sectarianism cannot be passed on at will. When you get back, you'll be able to apply. Learning more will always be good for the future. Chang'an said earnestly. Think about your days in Zongxue, although busy, but very fulfilling.
"Hmm. I think so too. Shall we go to the father now? Changning saw that Qiu Shi seemed to be busy on the side.
"It's fine. It's safer for everyone to get together. Chang'an also nodded, not knowing how they got to it.

By the time everyone gathered in Liu Wenyu's room, it was already close to noon.
"Leave only two carriages and a horse, and nothing else." Liu Wenyu instructed, "I don't want all the materials I was going to bring to the capital, and now this situation will only bring us trouble." ”
"Yes." The maid and the guards hurriedly went to prepare.
The guards were about to go out to catch the car, when they suddenly heard a commotion outside, and the sound of horses' hooves. There was a faint voice.
"Run, the outcasts are coming."
"Quick! Let's Jean! Let's let. ”
Everyone hurriedly ran to the window to look, and the road was already chaotic. I saw a large number of people pouring in from all directions, from a few hundred to several thousand, led by a dozen carriages and dozens of horses.
Just as the leading team rushed past the window, Changning smelled a familiar smell again. It is the smell of disinfectant water.
Changning looked at Liu Wenyu a little dazed, feeling even more frightened, his body began to weaken a little, and his hands couldn't help but tremble, "There must be a plague in Lianzhou." ”
Liu Wenyu was a little unhappy, it had only been five days since the disaster, and now it was spring again, although it was not dealt with in time, but the Jun family's Dan technique was outstanding, and it was impossible to let the plague spread, so he shouted in a low voice, "Ning'er, don't talk nonsense." ”
"I'm not talking nonsense, they smell of disinfectant on them." Changning is in a hurry.
Liu Wenyu observed the surrounding situation and did not make a sound.
"Ning'er, don't talk about this yet." Chang'an persuaded in a low voice.
Changning thought about it and felt that it was really useless to say this at such a time, so it was better to talk about it after returning to Yancheng.
"Don't go down yet." Liu Wenyu's face was a little pale, and he looked at the children standing beside him. "Let's see what happens."
Changning looked at the more and more people below, the scene was becoming more and more chaotic, and his thoughts were a little confused. At this moment, Changning felt very small, "Is this the power of the masses?" ”
