Chapter 37 Jiang Yu's Heartbeat
When Xu Jifeng heard about the effect, he immediately thought of its use.
Just now he was discussing with Jiang Yu how to control those troublemakers.
Walk forward and observe closely.
Xu Jifeng praised it three times.
"Wonderful, truly wonderful! Have the imperial physicians developed this miracle potion? It still requires the intervention of the imperial court!"
Jiang Qingqing took one out of the box.
I found a steamed bun, demonstrated it to them, and reminded them of a few things to pay attention to.
Everyone in the hall instantly became full of confidence.
This time, we will make sure that every citizen has something to eat!
But they overlooked one point: in addition to the refugees scattered throughout Xuzhou City, there were even more people who were under the control of the Queen Mother. They were all armed with swords and killed people mercilessly.
Xu Jifeng quickly ordered someone to hide the anesthetic needle and keep it for future use.
After they left, Jiang Yu looked at Jiang Qingqing, seeming to want to say something but stopping himself.
"What's the matter?"
Jiang Qingqing thought Jiang Yu had something important to discuss with her. The two of them had come all the way from the small mountain village, helping each other to reach Xuzhou.
Revolutionary friendship is quite rich.
Jiang Yu looked at the anesthetic needle in his hand again before asking in a deep voice, "Did you go into the house just now?"
Jiang Qingqing didn't intend to hide it and nodded.
"Yes, do you want to go in and rest for a while?"
As Jiang Qingqing spoke, she wanted to raise her hand to open the door of Jiang Yu's house.
They really hadn't slept much in the past two days and were exhausted. Jiang Yu would be the main force in maintaining order, so he couldn't let them down.
Jiang Yu stopped Jiang Qingqing's actions.
"No, what I'm saying is, who exactly are you going to meet? Are you so confident in what he gives you?"
"just in case..."
Jiang Qingqing didn't quite understand what Jiang Yu meant.
"What's wrong with you? If you're worried about the rations, I can guarantee they'll be fine. Besides, we've already eaten, haven't we?"
Why did you suddenly doubt this?
Everything was fine when I lived in the house before.
Jiang Yu looked into Jiang Qingqing's clear eyes, and the words on the tip of his tongue suddenly froze in his tracks.
But I recalled Jiang Qingqing talking to the air in the yard.
My heart still feels a little unsettled for some reason.
"You think he's amazing, don't you?"
Jiang Yu had already roughly guessed that Jiang Qingqing must have someone behind her. And that person was most likely not a human.
Jiang Qingqing was puzzled by his words.
She had never mentioned anything about gods to Jiang Yu, so she must have guessed it.
After experiencing these things, Jiang Qingqing did not intend to hide it, but she also did not want to explain it in such detail.
I just followed Jiang Yu's words and answered:
"Well, it's pretty powerful."
Jiang Yu's heart felt like it was pricked by a needle, and it hurt a lot.
"But he's not a human. He can't take care of you forever, right? He will leave."
"He can't take you on a horseback ride, can't accompany you to find the secret path, and certainly can't stay by your side. Don't rely too much on him. The person who truly stays by your side is the best person to rely on."
Jiang Qingqing remained silent and didn't quite understand what Jiang Yu said.
Although it is true that she is very dependent on the gods.
But why would the gods accompany her to do this?
It is God.
It didn't need to accompany her on horseback rides, it didn't need to accompany her in finding secret passages, and it certainly didn't need to stay by her side.
As long as she appears when you are in despair, that is enough.
It was it that gave her the horse to ride on, and it was it that knocked out the guards of the Prime Minister's Mansion, giving her the opportunity to find the secret passage.
"Jiang Yu... I don't know what you're talking about. But I won't allow anyone to discredit it."
"You can't either."
Jiang Qingqing looked at Jiang Yu deeply, then left the front hall with the remaining plate of steamed buns.
Jiang Yu stood alone in the front hall, feeling powerless and frustrated.
He gradually realized that he seemed to be attracted to Jiang Qingqing.
He was once Daliang's youngest war god, a major general, and naturally many in the army admired him. But even his most glorious years pale in comparison to the owner of that house.
He thought that he would never be able to achieve such supernatural power.
Jiang Yu felt an inexplicable sense of dejection in his heart.

street
"Have you heard? Dry food will be distributed outside the Governor's Mansion. Anyone who comes here will get a share!"
"The Governor's Mansion? The new Governor is not a good one. How can he give us food? It would be good if he stopped exploiting us ordinary people."
"It's not the new one, it's Governor Xu."
"Is this true? Where did you hear about distributing food?"
"Whether it's true or not, just go and find out. It's just a waste of time."
“…”
In a short time, the news that Xu Jifeng was going to distribute dry food outside the door spread like wildfire.
But most people are skeptical.
After watching and seeing someone actually bring something back from the governor's mansion, everyone went crazy.
They began to rush there with their families.
"Don't push it!"
"Hey! You hit the child, and that old lady."
"What's the rush? Are you rushing to be reborn? Didn't the governor say everyone has a share?"
The Governor's Mansion, which had been deserted for a long time, became bustling again.
When the people in the city heard the news, they all rushed here.
When he saw those boxes of food, the desire in his eyes almost turned into possession. There was only so much food, but so many people.
Even if everyone gets a share today, what about tomorrow?
They no longer want to live this kind of life where they have today but no tomorrow.
Some of the brave ones started pushing the people in front of them, ran to the front, and grabbed several packets of compressed biscuits.
Hold it tightly in your arms and run away as soon as you can.
"What's wrong with you?"
“Don’t you know how to queue?”
Once there's a chance, there'll be another. Xu Jifeng looked at those in the team who were ready to make a move and said, "Don't worry, everyone. The court has made sufficient preparations. Everyone can receive dry food and water today."
"Line up properly! This way you can get your items quickly and go home. Don't be impulsive!"
At the beginning, Xu Jifeng's words still had some weight.
Because Jiang Yu, who was standing next to him, directly took out his sword.
With a serious face and a stern demeanor, he looked like someone who had been trained in the military. Furthermore, Xu Jifeng was a former provincial governor and therefore a member of the imperial court.
But gradually, the team at the back saw others looking happy when they got the steamed buns and water.
I became more and more anxious.
"Can you please hurry up and get it? The kids at home are waiting for food!"
"That's right, what are you dithering about?"
There is always anxiety about what you don’t have.
Someone in the crowd shouted, "Let's get it ourselves! Let's get it ourselves, it'll be faster!"
As he spoke, he began to raise his hand and push down the person in front of him.
Squeeze towards where the steamed buns are piled up.
The riot happened in an instant.
"Let's go! Let's go too!"
"Hurry up, or they'll all be snatched up!"
A stampede had already occurred in the team. An old woman was pushed to the ground, and then a dozen footprints ran over her.
The old woman cried out in pain.
The voice of Master Xu was barely noticeable amidst the loud voices of the crowd.
