Taoist Qingchen said cheerfully: "There is no need to participate in the on-site rescue.
We have more important things to do. There are so many injured people waiting for Jiujun to treat them!"
"Oh, that's right!" Wuwang lay down with peace of mind.
The next morning.
Most of the 300,000 officers and soldiers who arrived in Jing County were assigned to various areas of the county to carry out rescue operations, while a small number were responsible for running errands and providing support.
Nangong Jiu took Xiao Wang and a few others and flew into the air to take a look at the situation.
In the snow, the distribution of officers and soldiers was very clear.
After reading it, Nangong Jiu nodded slightly with satisfaction.
"With so many people concentrated in the county town for rescue, I believe the affected people will be resettled soon."
Xiao Wang looked at the situation below and said, "Your Majesty, should we still go to those two counties to ask for help?"
"Go call Zhao Fuhai and ask for his opinion."
Xiao Wang responded and left.
Not long after, Zhao Fuhai came running over, panting: "Princess, what do you want?"
"There are still people from two counties around Jing County who haven't moved yet. Do you want to move them here?"
Zhao Fuhai thought about it seriously.
"Those two counties are relatively far away, so it will take some time for them to arrive. Besides, Jing County is small, and with so many people coming here, eating, drinking, defecating, urinating, and sleeping will not be a small matter.
I think these 300,000 people are enough if deployed properly.
The rescue work in the county town should be completed today. Tomorrow morning, we will have them split up into several groups and spread out to search and rescue in various villages."
"Okay, then have someone prepare two days' worth of food. When the soldiers go out tomorrow, they should bring enough food with them.
If there is anything you need me to do, just let me know.
Also, have the wounded gathered together, and I will go and treat them."
Zhao Fuhai agreed and hurried to do it.
Nangong Jiu looked at Xiao Wang and the others and said, "There's nothing for us to do right now. Let's go and help run some errands."
Noon.
Nearly two thousand wounded were gathered together, some lying or sitting, groaning incessantly.
After checking everyone's condition, Nangong Jiu flew over the wounded.
With a wave of his hand, a golden light enveloped the area.
After a long time.
Nangong Jiu looked at everyone with a smile: "Please check yourselves to see if you are still feeling unwell."
The wounded hurried to check themselves.
"No, my injuries are all healed!"
"My injury is healed too!"
"Our injuries have healed..."
"Now that everything is fine, go find your relatives."
The wounded expressed their gratitude and left.
Send away the wounded.
Nangong Jiu looked around and saw the officers and soldiers queuing up for lunch.
He called Xiao Wang and the others and said, "It's time for dinner, let's go eat something too."
Several people lined up to receive steamed buns and porridge, squatted on the ground like everyone else, and prepared to eat.
Sudden.
Nangong Jiu's attention was drawn to a woman wearing an apron who was busy scooping porridge for everyone.
The woman had a gentle smile on her face and was talking to the officers and soldiers from time to time.
The two women who looked like maids beside her also served porridge to everyone with quick movements.
As he watched, a memory related to himself suddenly emerged in Nangong Jiu's mind.
As I recall, under the high city walls, the victims were crowded in front of a porridge stall.
At that time, I was tired and hungry after saving people, so I thought about drinking some porridge to warm my body and rest for a while.
Perhaps he was too tired, and while waiting, he fell asleep leaning against the city wall.
I don’t know how long it was before I was awakened by a gentle shaking.
"Girl, no matter how tired you are, don't sleep here. It's too cold and you'll catch a cold. Come, drink a bowl of porridge to warm yourself up first."
He took it and took two gulps: "Auntie, the porridge you cooked is so delicious, thank you so much!"
"Girl, we should be the ones to thank you. From the look of you, I can tell that you are tired from saving people.
Judging from the way you are dressed, you must be a girl from a wealthy family.
My husband is an official in the capital, and I know most of the young ladies from the wealthy families in the capital.
But I have never seen you before, I wonder who you are?"
"Aunt, my name is Nangong Jiu. I'm from out of town and came to Beijing to play. I just happened to meet you and wanted to lend a hand."
"What a coincidence! I have the same last name as you! And we look a bit alike."
"It's a bit of a coincidence indeed, maybe we are destined to be together!"
"It's getting late. My home is not far away. Since we are destined to meet, if you have no place to stay, you can stay at my house."
"Will this be too much trouble for you?"
"No trouble! My husband is gone, and my family is simple..."
Nangong Jiu, who was lost in memories, suddenly came back to his senses.
He smiled at the still busy woman and murmured, "Qingchen, I remember now. It turns out that becoming my mother's daughter was a fate that was predestined long ago."
Taoist Qingchen looked at Nangong Jiu, who was smiling and staring at the porridge stall.
"Jiu Jun, could it be that that lady has some bond with you?"
"It's not her! It's just the same scene, reminding me of something in the past.
Do you still remember that two hundred years ago, the capital also suffered a severe snowstorm?"
"Two hundred years ago?"
Taoist Qingchen searched his memory carefully.
Xiao Wang, Xiao Xing, Wu Wang and the others stopped chewing their steamed buns and focused their attention on the two of them.
"What's going on? Tell us quickly!"
After a long time, Taoist Qingchen suddenly nodded.
"Yes, yes, that's true. Back then, there was heavy snow in the capital for several days, and many people were killed or injured.
You happened to be resting at Lingyin Temple at the time. When you saw it snowing, you said you wanted to go out and take a look, and you were gone for several days.
