Chapter 34 Gave Her a Sense of Security
Only gods can possess such divine power.
"What's going on?"
Jiang Yu looked at the scene in front of him in amazement, "Princess, did you ask for this?"
Jiang Qingqing turned and looked at him.
Please?
It seems not.
Every time she encountered trouble, the gods would appear silently and give her many surprises.
It seems to always...protect her!
So is it God who is helping her this time?
When Jiang Qingqing was uncertain, Fu Zhengnan's voice came to her ears.
He said:
"Run away first. I'll wait for you in the bedroom."
"It's been all day today."
His clear voice was neither pathetic nor compassionate, yet powerful enough to give her a sense of security. It softly and silently filled her ever-anxious heart, never letting her feel a sense of loss.
This made Jiang Qingqing, who had been wronged in another world this morning, suddenly want to talk to Fu Zhengnan.
Jiang Qingqing's throat felt a little tight.
Nodding, knowing that now was not the time to indulge in emotions, she softly replied, "You have to wait for me."
"good."
Fu Zhengnan made a promise, and then slowly said: "It's my fault this morning. I made you feel wronged."
A calm voice spoke slowly and leisurely.
It seems like coaxing or indulgence.
Although it didn't say what happened, Jiang Qingqing knew that it saw everything.
Otherwise, I wouldn't say such words.
Jiang Qingqing couldn't hold it in any longer, and her eyes were slightly red.
She wasn't one to share her sorrows with others. Even when her mother was around, she would keep things to herself and digest them on her own.
But now someone suddenly came.
He said: Even if you don't say it out loud, I understand the grievances you have suffered.
Thoughts are overflowing.
Jiang Qingqing shook her head and denied it:
"I don't blame you. The man in the room was just an accident."
Fu Zhengnan tapped the screen lightly with his fingertips and didn't respond.
He knew Jiang Qingqing had misunderstood, but he didn't want to explain too much.
Misunderstanding, okay.
Jiang Qingqing wiped a few tears from the corners of her eyes, pulled Jiang Yu's sleeve, and took the opportunity to escape from the crowd.
"Jiang Yu, let's go to the governor's mansion first."
She wanted to...
Get the matter resolved quickly and go see the gods.
Jiang Yu was stunned. It was just food falling from the sky, why were people crying and laughing at the same time?
"You just..."
Jiang Yu tried to ask Jiang Qingqing what had just happened, but Jiang Qingqing avoided the subject.
"Let's go quickly, or we'll be stuck if we're discovered."
Jiang Yu reluctantly agreed.
He found a small alley, avoided the patrolling officials, and headed towards the governor's mansion.
At the end of the official road is an elegant courtyard.
The plaque hanging high on the door was written by Xu Jifeng, the governor of Xuzhou, and it was a symbol of his integrity and elegance.
"Is there anyone in here?"
Jiang Qingqing looked at the desolate gate and turned to ask Jiang Yu behind her.
There wasn't even a gatekeeper at the gate, which was somewhat different from her previous impression of the governor's mansion. As the highest official in the continent, the governor should have someone guarding the gate.
Jiang Yu recalled what the group of people from Xuzhou said when he met them by the stream two days ago.
His face looked a little solemn.
"I'll go in and take a look first. I'm afraid something has happened in the Governor's Mansion. Otherwise, with Xu Jifeng's personality, he wouldn't let the people suffer like this."
Jiang Qingqing pulled him back: "I'll go with you."
Instead of waiting outside by herself, she might as well go in with him so that she would have company.
—
There was no one in the small courtyard.
Jiang Yu and Jiang Qingqing groped along the corner of the wall, fearing that there was an ambush in the yard.
Suddenly, the sound of women crying and arguing came from the courtyard in the distance.
"Xu Jifeng! You love your people, you love your Jiang army, you love your court! But does that mean you can ignore Lin'er and me?"
"Lin'er has had a high fever for three days now. He's still so young. How could you have the heart to do this to him?"
"Go and ask the Queen Mother for help! Go and ask the people in the Prime Minister's Mansion for help!"
The woman's voice was hoarse and she was crying heartbreakingly.
"Speak up! The Queen Mother just asked you to hand over the correspondence you've been keeping with the Jiang family for these years, why aren't you doing it?"
Mrs. Xu stepped forward and hammered Xu Jifeng's chest.
She really wanted to dig into this man's heart, it was so cold and hard that it scared her.
Faced with her crying, Xu Jifeng, who was standing in front of her, lowered his head and remained silent without saying a word.
Jiang Qingqing and Jiang Yu looked at each other.
"Is that the governor of Xuzhou?"
He looked tired.
Jiang Yu listened to what Mrs. Xu said and roughly guessed what had happened in the past half month.
The Queen Mother wanted to forge evidence of Jiang's treason by digging up the correspondence between the Jiang family and Xu Jifeng. However, Xu Jifeng chose not to join the Queen Mother's faction, which led to him being subjected to all kinds of difficulties.
Jiang Yu walked forward with Jiang Qingqing.
"Zi Yu, long time no see."
Xu Jifeng, who had been silent all the time, turned around when he heard Jiang Yu calling his name.
There was a hint of disbelief in Jiang Yu's eyes.
"You...are still alive."
He knew that Jiang Yu had escaped from the imperial prison, and he had been waiting for Jiang Yu to report the events of Yingzhou and Xuzhou to His Majesty. By then, the court would surely send reinforcements.
But this wait lasted more than half a month.
The Queen Mother's men were becoming more and more arrogant and presumptuous in their actions in Xuzhou.
Xu Jifeng had thought Jiang Yu had died on the way to the capital. He had never expected that he would be standing before him today, unharmed.
Jiang Yuqing said "hmm".
He turned sideways, revealing Jiang Qingqing behind him, and introduced her, "Your Highness from Daliang, came to Xuzhou with me."
"Your Highness?"
Xu Jifeng looked at Jiang Qingqing with some confusion.
After thinking for a while, he suddenly realized, "This must be Her Royal Highness the Princess, right? Great, great... The court finally sent someone, right?"
"Where are the reinforcements? Where is the food? Are they all outside?"
There was excitement in Xu Jifeng's eyes, a sense of joy that came after all the hard work.
Jiang Qingqing couldn't bear to tell him the truth.
In fact, she was just a princess with no power and only an empty title.
He is still a wanted criminal.
The court did not send anyone.
"I..."
Just when Jiang Qingqing was about to explain, Fu Zhengnan spoke.
"Tell him that we'll be distributing dry food in front of the Governor's Mansion in an hour, and ask him to find a few people to help."
Jiang Qingqing was stunned.
Dry food?
Does she have this thing?
I don't think so...
Fu Zhengnan looked at her and could tell she was still in a daze.
Patiently explained:
"I'll give you some dry food in a bit. It's enough for everyone in the city. I'll also ask Xu Jifeng to find a spacious place to store the dry food."
Jiang Qingqing nodded in understanding.
"Understood."
She repeated what Fu Zhengnan had said to her, "Prefect Xu, find a few reliable helpers and distribute dry food at the gate of the Prefect's Mansion in an hour."
Xu Jifeng agreed repeatedly.
He was not surprised by what Jiang Qingqing said. Since His Highness had come in person, there would naturally be no shortage of food.
He quickly trotted outside to call for help.
But Jiang Yu standing aside was different.
The expression on Jiang Yu's face was uncertain, as if he was constipated and wanted to say something but couldn't.
He and Jiang Qingqing knew each other very well. Today, he came to seek Xu Jifeng's help, not to help others!
How much do they weigh? Where can they get any dry food?
