Chapter 41: Memories of Killing (7)
"No, no, no." Xiahou Qian hurriedly said, "Okay, since my sister doesn't want to say it, then I won't ask, I'll go and discuss it with my mother, and let Qiaonu squeeze her." ”
"That's pretty much it."
Hua Luo didn't know where to go after speaking.
Xiahou Qian sighed, this little girl is not angry, and her temper is really big when she gets angry.
The drought lasted for a long time, and the sun scorched the land of Yanzhou, but the people of Yanzhou could not wait for relief materials.
Gradually, the people of Yanzhou became resentful and decided to get together to discuss big things.
Similarly, Hua Luo, who received the news, felt bad and mixed in with the gathered Yanzhou people.
"We've been holding on for so long, and the bark and wild vegetables are gone, so we're almost eating people, and Kyoto is better, and we are more and more ignorant of the situation of our people."
"Yes, if the ruler of the Hua Clan does not act, how long will it take for all of us to continue like this."
As soon as this person's words came out, they immediately aroused the echo of others.
"If you want me to say, you have to die sooner or later, why don't we fight?"
The man continued.
Hua Luo pricked up her ears and listened carefully.
"How do you fight it?"
"We spontaneously formed a team, although there are few people in Yanzhou, but as long as the people are united, it is also a force that should not be underestimated, and then gathered together to collect fine iron to build weapons, break through the checkpoints in Yanzhou and rush out, and when we reach other states, we can have food and water, and continue to live."
"What if the Flower Clan investigates it?"
"Then fight with them to the end, and death will also pull the back, since there is no way to live, why do we respect these high rulers? It's better to rebel than to stay in this barren land and wait for death! ”
"That's it, it's a big deal to fail and die, it's better than being grinded to death here!"
Gradually, more and more people agree with their statement.
At the moment of life and death, the potential of people to burst out is unimaginable, and the people guarding the Yanzhou checkpoint have no time to react, and it is really possible for them to break through the encirclement.
Yanzhou is next door to Queensland, once this group of famine-stricken people rushed to Queensland, they would be looted everywhere, and the consequences would be unimaginable.
Hua Luo walked up to the leader.
"This matter is not necessarily the inaction of the flower clan, the empress she ...... With only one pair of eyes, Yanzhou is so far away, maybe she doesn't know everyone's situation yet. ”
That person was inspired by the morale around him, and he was excited, and suddenly saw a little girl standing up to refute him, and he was naturally displeased: "You little girl has also fallen into this kind of field like us, and you still defend the flower clan?" ”
"If the empress is really interested in Yanzhou, will we fall into this kind of field, or even sell our sons and daughters? People say, am I right? ”
"Yes!" "Yes." ……
"Who said that the empress didn't care about Yanzhou? In fact, she had already noticed the incident, and the disaster relief resources allocated from Kyoto were enough for everyone to survive the drought, but there must have been an official in charge of escorting the people on the way, and now she is investigating. ”
Seeing that Hua Luo said it in a serious way, these people still didn't believe it.
"How do you know so much about a little girl? Empty mouths and white teeth, how can we believe. ”
"You just because I am the crown prince, and the queen mother specially sent me to investigate the disaster situation in Yanzhou and tide over the difficulties with everyone."
Hua Luo spoke clearly, her eyes were firm and powerful, and the onlookers were stunned for a second.
Only the man who had just encouraged everyone to rebel laughed: "What do you use to prove your identity?" You say you're the crown prince, then I also say I'm the empress, how can there be a prince who has fallen here with us and has no one to accompany us. ”
"This is because we want to find out the corrupt officials who exploit disaster relief support, so this palace hides its identity and investigates secretly."
Hua Luo spread out her palm, and a golden thing emitted a striking light, as bright as day, and it was the seal of the prince.
She had been carrying the prince on her body because it was the only thing that proved her identity.
"Generally speaking, it is absolutely impossible for the prince seal to fall into the hands of others, now you should believe that I am the crown prince."
The crowd was talking, everyone, you look at me, I see that you don't know whether it's true or not.
Another middle-aged woman asked: "But weren't you rescued by the Xiahou family by accident in the snake cave in the mountains?" ”
Just when Hua Luo wanted to quibble, Xiahou Qian stood up after a brief period of surprise: "I can testify that she is indeed His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, in fact...... In fact, it was I who met His Royal Highness the Crown Prince at that time, and she asked me to keep it secret, so I made up a reason to lie to everyone that she was rescued from the snake cave, and I was also to cooperate with His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to investigate the embezzlement of disaster relief materials, sorry, everyone. ”
Hua Luo didn't expect that Xia Houqian would help her at a critical time.
Xiahou Qian's family is still quite famous in Yanzhou, so what Xiahou Qian said added some credibility to this matter.
Hua Luo struck while the iron was hot: "Therefore, the queen mother did not give up on Yanzhou, and she did not care about the life and death of the people of Yanzhou, she sent the palace to personally investigate this matter, which is enough to prove that she attaches great importance to this matter, and everyone can always believe in the rule of the Hua clan." ”
"Now that the shrine is thinking about disaster relief measures, please hold on for a few more days and get through the difficulties together when the time comes."
Although the person who instigated the rebellion at the beginning believed in Hua Luo's identity, he still felt a little disdainful in his heart, what could a little girl who didn't have any hair do could do.
However, the crisis was temporarily extinguished by the flowers, and the crowd gradually dispersed.
Xiahou Qian confirmed: "Are you really the crown prince? ”
"Can't you be sure if I'm the prince and helped me round the field just now?" Hua Luo asked rhetorically.
"If you are really the prince, I don't think it will be easy for you, I can only mow grass and herd cattle at your age, you can move out so many ways, but, did you just tell the truth?"
Both of them knew that Hua Luo was indeed found in the Snake Cave, not that the empress sent her to inspect the disaster, not to mention that even if she really had to send someone to inspect the disaster, there was no one in the court, so why did she have to find an eight-year-old prince.
"Hahaha......"
Hua Luo was about to answer Xia Houqian when she heard a burst of laughter.
Hua Luo asked Xia Hou Qian, and Xia Hou Qian said that he did not hear the voice.
Hua Luo immediately concluded that the voice was coming from her own head and that no one else could hear it.
Hua Luo said to Xia Houqian: "I suddenly remembered that I still have something, you go back first." ”
"Hey! You ......" Before Xiahou Qian finished speaking, Hua Luo disappeared.
Blossom followed the sound all the way, for she felt that it was very familiar, as if she had heard it somewhere.
Finally, in a pavilion in the mountains, I saw the owner of the voice, an old man with gray hair and fairy bones, and a long beard fluttering in the wind.
Tea was already warmed in the pavilion, as if waiting for someone.
Hua Luo recognized the other party when she saw the back: "Zhang Hao? ”
