On this widest avenue that runs through the north and south of Yangzhou City, on one side are tens of thousands of victims frantically impacting the officers and soldiers, and on the other hand, there are only the two of us riding alone, this contrast makes people feel strange. Those hungry people have been hungry for these days, they have just smashed open the city gate, and they are already at the end of the crossbow, and at this time, they were stopped by the officers and soldiers, and they no longer have the strength, and they slowly calmed down.

They raised their heads and looked at Pei Yuanhao, who was high above, and I also looked at them, the eyes of those hungry people were so empty that it was distressing.

When Pei Yuanhao spoke, his voice was a little different from usual, and said, "I know why you are here." ”

“……”

"You want to be fed."

As soon as they heard the last three words, those people were a little nervous, and the officers and soldiers around them immediately became nervous and stopped them hard, and someone in the crowd gradually responded: "Yes, we just want to eat a bite of food." ”

"We want to live, we want to, we want to eat!"

Gradually, those voices became louder and deeper, as if a heavy hammer was hitting people's hearts, I choked for a while, looked back at Pei Yuanhao, his face still did not change, but he said: "I promise, I will give you food, and I will let you live!" ”

When those people heard this, they were all taken aback, and they all felt that the identity of the man in front of them was not simple, and one of them looked a little younger and stronger, and said loudly: "You promise, what guarantee do you take?" ”

Hong Wen on the side walked over and said loudly to the hungry people: "He is the third prince of the dynasty!" ”

"The Third Prince?!"

"He is His Royal Highness the Third Prince?!"

Those people were all taken aback, seeing Pei Yuanhao standing on his horse like a celestial, and he was not afraid in the face of thousands of surging hungry people, and they were all shocked by his courage, and suddenly, the hungry people in front of him fell to their knees at once-

"Third Highness, give us a way to live!"

As soon as they knelt, the people behind them also knelt down, and suddenly, I watched the thousands of hungry people kneel down in front of me, as if they were pouring in to bow down in unison.

It was the first time I had seen so many people kneeling in front of me.

But that feeling is not good, because I know that when these people bow down, the heavy responsibility also weighs on us, and when you want to accept such glory, you are destined to bear the pain and suffering that glory brings.

We packed up and left the state capital early in the morning, but after a while, we were back in the state capital, this time completely without the ease of leaving, and I listened to his footsteps, one step heavier and heavier.

Tens of thousands of victims poured into Yangzhou City, this is not a trivial matter, in the past is not without the disaster victims into the city to cause chaos, especially today's disaster victims into the city is to crash open the city gate, it seems to have faintly foreshadowed the trickiness of this thing, people are hungry when everything is done, when the time comes, who cares what law, what status.

Looking at his chapped lips, I made a cup of hot tea and brought it to him, he pinched the bowl, but didn't take a sip.

"Your Highness," I said softly, "don't worry, take a sip of tea." ”

He glanced at me, didn't say anything, lowered his head and was about to drink tea, when he heard that Hong Wenquan outside had already hurried over with the big and small officials of Yangzhou, these people were all kneeling at his feet, and they didn't dare to speak, Pei Yuanhao put the teacup on the table and said in a deep voice: "How is the situation outside?" ”
