Chapter 143 Cleaning Up
The older brother, who had fainted from hunger, woke up with difficulty after hearing the sound of the horn.
Looking at my dead mother and young sister.
He decided to go out and check it out, even if it was just a dying hallucination: "Sister, wait, I'll go get you some food."
The neighbors couldn't believe it either.
They have been waiting for the court to release grain for so long, it must be an illusion.
But someone suddenly shouted outside:
“There really is food!”
The people who had been waiting to die in their houses all moved.
They rushed out through the door.
There were actually large and small bags of things piled up outside the house. When I opened the thermos bag, I saw that they were filled with cooked rice and vegetables, even meat and soup.
The person who got the food couldn't wait to go home and grabbed it with his hands and took a big bite.
I just swallowed it down with tears.
Their stomachs were aching so much that they were numb, and they didn't care about their dry throats.
But the mineral water that rolled out of the thermos bag caught everyone's attention. Someone studied it and finally opened it: "It's water! There's water in this bottle!"
“Sweet water!”
More and more people came out of the houses, scrambling for the packages on the vacant lots.
Jiang Qingqing and the others saw the images sent back by the robot dog in the house. They felt uncomfortable when they saw that everyone in the house had yellow faces and looked skinny and withered.
Jiang Qingqing took the walkie-talkie and cut off the sound source on the robot dog's back.
Let her dictate it instead.
Jiang Qingqing: "Everyone, please don't fight over anything. There are enough supplies. Every family can go inside to avoid the cold after getting enough food."
When the people heard the sound, they were stunned.
But the next second, they were still scrambling for the package.
Only what you have in your hands can give you a real sense of security.
"I got it first!"
Just as the little boy was about to go back to the house, he was pushed down by the young man next door and the package was snatched from his hand.
He said with a spit, "I don't care who got it, it's mine now."
"If you have the guts, take it back, you little bastard."
The young man quickly moved the package back into the room.
The news of food being stolen from the streets quickly spread, and some officials began ordering their servants to go out into the streets to collect the food.
Anyone who disobeys will be severely beaten.
"Hurry up, hurry up, the master of the mansion is coming out!"
The common people seemed to be very afraid of the big masters and did not dare to compete with them. After tasting a little sweetness, they hurried home and closed the door to avoid disaster.
So most of the remaining packages were looted by the servants.
Some of the tougher people were beaten until their heads were bleeding.
In the end, they had to hand over the food in their hands.
The servants were already used to this kind of evil and even mocked them, saying, "Who do you think you are? How dare you fight with the Governor's Mansion? The entire Lizhou belongs to our master."
Suddenly, a carriage came galloping.
It charged straight towards the group of people on the road, and the servants barely managed to avoid it.
"Who are you? We are from the Governor's Mansion. Don't you have eyes?"
The leading steward wanted to shout, but was stopped by the flash of Jiang Yu's drawn sword. He stammered, "Knight, where are you from?"
Jiang Yu didn't answer, but turned his head to look at Jiang Qingqing.
Jiang Qingqing: "Lead the way to your governor's mansion."
——
Inside the Governor's Mansion
The charcoal fire was burning brightly, and before even stepping into the front hall, I could already feel the heat hitting my face.
Jiang Qingqing frowned.
The housekeeper has already passed the message to Governor Lu.
I don't know her identity, but she looks like a distinguished guest from the capital. Because Governor Lu is originally from the capital, and the housekeeper was also brought from the capital by him. As soon as I heard the way Jiang Qingqing spoke, I knew she was not simple.
The moment Governor Lu saw Jiang Qingqing, his originally timid expression immediately turned into contempt.
He thought he was some royal relative.
It turned out to be the little princess who was abandoned in the wilderness.
Governor Lu: "I'm sorry for not welcoming you. Your Highness...isn't he in Xuzhou? Why did you come here?"
Having said that, he sat in the main seat.
Made myself a cup of tea.
He didn't take the visitor seriously at all.
Jiang Qingqing kicked over the low table in front of him, her eyes cold and gloomy: "Since you can't be a governor, then don't do it."
The jade teapot and teacups were shattered all over the floor.
The fake smile on Governor Lu's face began to fade. "Your Highness, what do you mean by this? You've given me this title right after I arrived."
Then, he looked Jiang Qingqing up and down.
"Besides, Your Highness, in what capacity are you speaking to me? Princess Daliang, or a fugitive on the run?"
After he finished speaking, Governor Lu shouted, "Come here! Bring this fugitive listed on the list to me and imprison him in the woodshed. Bring him back to the capital."
The guards of the governor's mansion immediately surrounded the four of them.
Jiang Qingqing turned her head and looked at Xiao Congyan, and Xiao Congyan attacked immediately.
Holding a dagger.
With the blessing of speed, the guards had their throats slit wherever he went.
They came here today to reason.
But it doesn't matter, as long as there is no blood.
Those hidden insects underground will not be obedient, such as the governor Lu in front of him.
Governor Lu was frightened by Xiao Congyan's fighting ability and pointed at him: "You...you, are not human."
No matter how high his martial arts skills are, how could he be so invisible?
When he tried to escape, Jiang Yu put a sword to his neck and said, "Where are you going, Governor Lu? His Highness hasn't said you can leave yet."
Jiang Yu specifically emphasized the word "Your Highness".
He would not allow anyone to be disrespectful to Jiang Qingqing.
Jiang Qingqing crossed her arms and walked forward with a sneer: "Didn't you ask me why I came to Lizhou? I came here specifically to treat you."
at last.
Everyone in the governor's mansion became a tool for delivering goods, including Governor Lu.
He never thought that he would grow up in a wealthy family and then become a goddess, and have a smooth journey.
Today, we have fallen to the point of delivering food to those lowly common people in the middle of winter.
But he is always accompanied by a robot dog.
His every move was monitored at all times, and he dared not disobey Jiang Qingqing's orders at all.
The people heard the sound of "dong dong" knocking on the door.
I dare not not open it.
I thought they were from the Governor's Mansion, trying to steal the food. I never expected that they were actually here to deliver food???
“Thank you…thank you…”
The people took the food handed over by Governor Lu and the cotton wool brought in by the guards.
For a moment, it felt like the sun was rising from the west.
Isn’t this a dream?
Governor Lu did not forget to say, "This was given by His Highness, who has come to Lizhou. You all should behave yourself. If you say anything slanderous about me, wait for me."
Threats and inducements.
The people didn't react at all until he left.
Everyone then remembered the myth that came from Xuzhou, saying that Xuzhou was protected by gods.
Wherever Your Highness goes, there is food.
Xuzhou was praised as a paradise on earth, and those who were capable had already hired carriages and fled to Xuzhou.
It turns out the rumors were not false.
Your Highness actually has this ability.
"Mother, look at this cotton wool, it's so warm!"
Unable to wait to open the quilt, the whole family hid in it.
They don't know what will happen tomorrow.
But today, they are lucky enough to survive.
