Chapter 162 The powerful Su family

Ye Shaoyan was obviously very uncomfortable, and slowly closed his eyes and mourned silently for the dead people.

There was silence all around, and everyone had a look of pain on their faces.

Until now, Ye Shaoyan is still blaming himself, why didn't he come to the southern city earlier, he had to listen to the prefect of the south to report the good news and not the bad news!

His slender fingers gripped the armrest of the wheelchair tightly, and he secretly made up his mind that he would be torn to pieces.

A group of people looked at the corpses floating on the water, all of them palpitated, and they were silent all the way.

Half an hour later, the ship came to the gate of the southern city.

Where is this city, it is clearly a mountain of corpses!

Inside and outside the southern city, corpses were everywhere, and only a very small number of people who were still alive hid in the city shivering, ragged, and dirty!

The people at the head of the city seem to live on an isolated island with no water or food.

Filthy water all around, familiar and unfamiliar faces floating in the water.

Everyone had a numb look on their faces, as if they were ready to die.

In the midst of such a desperate situation, either starve to death or be flooded!

Some hungry people, armed with sticks, scooped up the bodies floating on the surface of the water and ate their flesh.

Wei Qingguan looked at this scene with a sour heart.

She had seen many records of people, food, people, and meat in history books, but all the images were of her own imagination.

Now witnessing it, it is really sad, but there is nothing to be done!

Those who were so hungry that they could not even walk could not walk, and when they saw the ship coming, they trembled one by one.

Ye Shaoyan immediately distributed the food.

When they saw that there was food, the people gathered around.

The people scrambled for food.

Yan Shu wiped away a handful of tears and said, "Don't worry, we have enough food with us!" ”

Although everyone was comforting them, they just didn't listen and continued to snatch.

Wei Qingguan got off the boat as soon as possible and began to rescue those people who still had vital signs.

Dr. Sun saved adults, and she saved children and the elderly first.

Many children have long been hungry because they have nothing to eat.

Ye Shaoyan led his subordinates to move all the civilians who got food to a safe place.

Hiding on the city walls is not an option, looking at the weather, the torrential rain will continue to fall, the water level will continue to rise, and it is only a matter of time before the southern city is flooded.

Therefore, the top priority is to move all the people who are still alive to the mountain, as high as they can, and I don't know how high the water can rise!

The rest of the group continued to row in search of more survivors, and everyone was busy until the evening.

They set up military tents on the mountains to protect the people from the wind and rain.

Now the only way is to go up the mountain.

Ye Shaoyan was discussing with them about the flood discharge.

At this time, everyone thought of the prefect of the southern city, but they didn't even see a single figure.

The people wanted to find some people and ask about the situation.

The people were against it and unwilling to cooperate.

"I don't believe in the imperial court, we won't say anything!"

"Even if the other party is the prince, neither of us wants to see him until the flood in the southern city is completely resolved."

The people were indignant and filled with righteous indignation!

It's okay not to say that the prince is good, but as soon as the prince is mentioned, the people are scared and pack up and leave.

Wei Qingguan was puzzled.

She hurriedly stopped the old woman she had saved and comforted her.

"Old man, the prince is here to save you."

The old woman staggered, couldn't walk anymore, and didn't coax with the others, just looked at Wei Qingguan with cloudy eyes.

"You, are you sure you're not lying to me, you're saying that the imperial court sent the prince to provide disaster relief?"

Wei Qingguan said: "It's absolutely true, old man, you see, we provide you with food, give you treatment, arrange accommodation for you, and do our best to find survivors." ”

"Of course it's to save people, how can there be such a desperate villain to save people!"

The old woman thought about it, and no one seemed to be hungry at the moment.

She waved at the panicked crowd.

"Don't worry, they're just here to help us out."

Some people don't believe it, and some people do.

After all, they all saw the old man dying, but they didn't expect that instead of dying, she was more energetic than before.

Some of the people also gathered around.

Wei Qingguan told the general story of the matter.

As soon as the people heard that King Jing was coming to relieve the disaster, they knelt down in front of Ye Shaoyan and others, the name of King Jing, everyone in the world knows, the hero of Daqi, loves the people like a son.

A crowd of people cried profusely.

"Please also ask His Royal Highness King Jing to help!"

"On the day of the flood, the prefect fled and his whereabouts are still unknown!"

"Every time there is a big flood, he will do it, he will go to other cities to take refuge, and when the big water recedes, he will come back, and with the will of the imperial court, it is His Majesty's order not to discharge the flood."

"Caomin and the others naturally believe the words of the prefect and don't dare to ask more."

"There was a people who did not believe in evil and were beaten to death!"

"What!" Wei Qingguan was taken aback, he never thought that a prefect would be so disgusting.

It's just a matter of oppressing the people, and even human lives are harmed!

The old man began to weep sadly.

"Yes, my son was killed by them! I wanted to go to the capital to file a lawsuit, but I was stopped by Lord Chincha! ”

"Lord Qincha tied the women back and hung them on the top of the city for three days and three nights to warn!"

The cries of the people grew louder and louder.

"Moreover, Lord Qincha told Caomin and others that if anyone dares to enter Beijing to make trouble, they will not only hang the wall, but also punish the nine clans!"

"It was said that it was the power given by His Majesty, and His Majesty also acquiesced in Lord Su's approach, after all, Lord Su and the queen are a family."

"If you really want to make trouble, the emperor will definitely help the queen mother, not a little person like the grass people."

Ye Shaoyan was so angry that his eyes were red, he always knew that Su Gaocheng was not a good thing, but because he was a family with Queen Su, he didn't care about the affairs of Southern City.

Unexpectedly, Su Gaocheng was so ruthless that he abandoned the entire city and fled alone.

Ye Shaoyan instructed the people around him: "Drain the flood immediately!" ”

The words were answered.

The kneeling people shook their heads.

"Your Highness, no, no."

Ye Shaoyan frowned slightly, puzzled: "Now the flood discharge is the best policy, why can't the flood be discharged, this king has already sent someone downstream to inform him." ”

The man shuddered.

"Downstream is the field of Queen Su's mother's family, it is said that His Majesty's father-in-law lives there, Lord Su said, anyone can suffer, but not the Su family."

"What a guts!"
