This time I went back, because there was a route designated by the "Queen Mother", and Mei Berry basically went straight to Cangling River when they left the emperor.

By the time we took the boat north, it was already June, and the scorching temperature was not spared even on the river, and it was so hot that people felt upset to sit in the cabin.

"My watermelon is probably almost ripe too."

Mei Berry stood on the deck and blew the wind, and talked to Mei Yousu about the watermelons she grew in her Zhuangzi.

"It was as if we had just planted a ...... when we left Now that the calculations are calculated, the earliest batch should be ready to eat. Damn, I'm probably not going to be able to eat a bite! ”

Mei Berry thought about her big watermelon, and she hated the trip to the imperial capital more and more.

"It's okay, the weather is getting cooler after I go back, so it's best to eat a pot." Mei You talked about the mutton pot, and Mei Berry couldn't help but swallow when she heard it.

"Actually, I still want to eat cashmere sheep, although the mutton of the grassland Hu people is also very delicious, but I always feel that the meat of the cashmere sheep is soft and tender, and the cashmere sheep is super suitable for slicing shabu shabu."

"You're pretty good at eating~"

Mei You saw that Mei Berry came to her senses at the mention of eating, so she didn't interrupt Mei Berry's good mood.

The evening breeze was blowing, and the heat of the day was a little less, but looking at the opposite shore that was already faintly visible in the north, Mei Berry opened the electronic map and calculated where they were when they got off the boat.

Seeing this, Meiberry's mood was once again chaotic.

After getting off the boat, you will walk north for a day and you will enter Yunzhou.

Ke Rao was mentally prepared, but when Mei Berry stepped into the land of Yunzhou, he couldn't help but sigh when he saw that the former fertile land was now uncultivated and the weeds were abundant.

There is no one in Yunzhou anymore.

This is the most intuitive feeling of plum berries.

In the next two days, Mei Berry and his party also passed by a county town called Qiu Li, and the county magistrate and officials came to meet Mei Berry and them.

That night, Meiberry and his party also rested temporarily in this small county town.

When they entered the city and looked at the sparse people in the city, they became more and more silent.

There are no people to see outside, and the city is like this, and Yunzhou doesn't know how long it will take to recover.

After being taken to the rest courtyard by the prefectural order, Mei Berry and the others opened their mouths to ask the prefectural order about the situation in the county.

In fact, this county is not on the Jinlan River, and it was rarely affected by the floods, but later because of the spread of the plague, countless people died in the county and surrounding villages.

"Are all the counties in Yunzhou like they are now?"

Mei Berry didn't wait for the prefectural order to answer after asking.

She looked at the gray hair on the sideburns of the county order, and the somewhat whitish official robe washed by the other party, and that sigh fell directly into her heart.

The county magistrate replied softly: "In some counties, the entire county is gone, and Xiaguan has also accepted some refugees here, and I heard them say that their hometown is basically gone." Later, they didn't go back again......"

"That's right."

The topic was heavy and difficult to continue, and the prefectural magistrate seemed to be very busy, and after talking to Plum Berry and them, he hurried out of the annex.

"Let's rest here and leave early tomorrow morning. I see that they are not rich in the county......"

Although Mei Berry knew that he was not an emperor, he didn't need such a luxurious pomp.

However, Mei Berry could see that thousands of them had come here, and the county order's hospitality was still stretched.

In addition to providing a place to rest, no matter how much help they have, it is estimated that Mei Berry will not be able to open their mouths.

Early the next morning, they were about to leave this place, and the county order personally sent them off, and asked them about the route of their behavior, and finally couldn't help but remind them to detour to Gaoqu County.

"Why can't you go to Gaoqu County? Is it because of the mountain road? ”

If they go straight according to the official road, Meiberry's next stop will probably be Gaoqu County, but listening to the tone of this county magistrate, it seems that it is not suitable to go there.

It's just that the name of this place, Mei Berry, is very familiar, Mei You was the first to think of it, and asked, "Is it that the rebellious thieves in Gaoqu County have not been suppressed yet?" ”

"The townsman knows?" The county of Qiuli County didn't expect Mei Berry to know at this time, so surprised that a flash of panic flashed in his eyes.

"Well, I've heard that, haven't you?"

"Yes, but General Chen Yuan came to suppress it once a few days ago, but I heard that many rebels directly abandoned the city and fled into the mountains, but they were not able to cut the grass and eradicate the roots."

"Chen Yuan can't suppress it?"

Unlike Mei Berry, Xie Changchen knew Chen Yuan's skills, and with his combat style, how could he tolerate those bandits running around?

This is not Chen Yuan's combat style.

"That guy ......"

Obviously, when Xie Changchen mentioned this, Mei Berry remembered the scene when they were chased and killed by Chen Yuan.

The county magistrate of Qiuli County looked at the unpredictable expressions on the faces of several of them, and couldn't help but wipe the corners of his forehead.

"Excuse me, how many thieves are there in Gaoqu County?"

Mei You was concerned about the number of anti-thieves.

"This-the lower officials don't know, they only know that they seem to have absorbed a lot of refugees from Yunzhou."

"In addition to capturing Gaoqu County, did they take any action against other counties?"

"Not for the time being, General Chen Yuan will break them all up, it is estimated that it will be difficult to gather in a short time, but if you really take the official road of Gaoqu County, maybe there is still a risk."

After listening to what the county order said, Mei Berry and they continued on the road.

It's just that they haven't changed any of their plans.

"The man just now looked nervous when he spoke, constantly wiping his sweat, and he couldn't fully believe what he said."

Mei You said, his hand stroked the long knife on his waist, and Mei Berry was shocked when she saw this: "Sister, do you mean that someone deliberately led us astray, so as to ......"

As she spoke, she touched her neck.

In this regard, Mei You nodded secretly.

Plum Berry stopped talking at all.

Good guy, just entered Yunzhou, did you come out like this?

Is this the handiwork of the King of Wei or the King of Qi?

Mei Berry also held the bow in her hand, but under Mei You's reminder, she still carried the bow behind her back and it was safer to hold a long knife in her hand.

Among the trees outside the official road in Gaoqu County.

"Boss, are we really going to rob that countryman?"

A group of people dressed in disarray, some wearing helmets, some wearing armor, and others wearing thick coats, crowded in the mountains and forests in a disorderly manner, looking at the leaders of the group.

"Or else? We were driven out of Gaoqu County by that general, and now we are short of food and drink, and we finally learned that there is a Laoshizi township king passing by, and if you don't grab some food and drink, and then counterattack back, why do you still want to be a rogue in the mountains? ”

The man who had always been one-eyed at the head flashed a fierce look in his eyes.

"Yes, Big Brother is right! It is said that this townsman brought a lot of good things, and when the time comes, he will recover after snatching it, and we will directly occupy Qiuli County. ”

"But, didn't the county magistrate of Qiuli County quietly tell us the news? Will we take revenge like that? ”

Someone raised this question, but the person who had just raised the news of the capture of Qiuli County said: "You are stupid, why did he remind us to block the township here, so as to make it convenient for us?"

That's because he is also very weak there, and he is afraid that we will be desperate and have our eyes on his poor place.

However, poor places have the benefits of poor places, after all, because of the iron ore in Gaoqu County, the imperial court will not indulge us to occupy that piece, it is better to find a small remote place to recover first. ”

The one-eyed boss listened to the other party's analysis, and he also agreed very much, and only said, "The third is right." ”

If Mei Berry was at the scene, he would definitely recognize that the third child was Chen Bao Dan who Mei Berry had sent to prison for reform.

A group of people who were beaten by Chen Yuan into lost dogs wandered in the mountains and forests, and became other people's pawns under a huge conspiracy......

Chen Baodan: Ah, I came out, but it doesn't seem to have come out. Looking at this scene, I'm about to die again?

Plum Berry: You'd better be running out.
