After the bandits died, Fu Yanting slowly walked to the boxes.
Lord Lin came up behind him and said, "These things were all looted by them in Xufeng County."
Chu Chenyin came out from behind the tent and strode to Fu Yanting's side. "Let's see what's inside."
Lord Lin looked at the woman who suddenly appeared with surprise, "Who is this?"
Fu Yanting turned his head and replied, "This is my wife."
Lord Lin quickly bowed to Chu Chenyin and said, "Meet the Madam."
Chu Chenyin also turned around and saluted him back, "Hello, sir."
Lord Lin stood up and walked to the box. "It contains all the money that Prime Minister Wan brought from the capital."
"Prime Minister Wan..." Chu Chenyin muttered softly.
I didn't expect that Prime Minister Wan could come up with so many gold, silver and jewelry.
Lord Lin continued, "Prime Minister Wan and the Emperor took the money and planned to rebuild the imperial palace in Xufeng County, but unfortunately they ran into these bandits and lost everything."
Chu Chenyin smiled, "Then how do they make a living?"
Lord Lin replied: "They are living on the food stored by the people in the county. I'm afraid they won't be able to hold on for long."
Fu Yanting took over the conversation and said, "The entire Dayong Kingdom is suffering from drought now. It may not be easy to survive."
Lord Lin nodded slightly, "From what I know, they plan to go south."
"Go south to find water?" Chu Chenyin asked.
"That's right." Lord Lin took out a map from his arms. "They asked me for directions and where they could find water. I told them to go south to Qingshui Town."
Qingshui Town, the name of this town sounded very familiar to Chu Chenyin.
She suddenly remembered that in a few months, Dayong, which had been suffering from drought for nearly half a year, would be hit by heavy rains, causing mudslides and floods.
The entire Qingshui Town was directly submerged by the flood and became the big river seen by later generations.
If Prime Minister Wan and the Emperor chose to go to Qingshui Town at this time, even if there was a water source, it would be submerged by the flood.
Lord Lin is really powerful. He directly chose a dead end for them.
"However, whether they can reach Qingshui Town is unknown." Lord Lin put away the map, knelt down and said to Fu Yanting: "General, the country cannot be without a ruler for a day. Now the world is in chaos, and someone must come out to take charge of the situation."
Fu Yanting knew what he meant, "But people in our Fu family are guilty of treason."
Lord Lin said quickly, "General, since Prime Minister Wan wants to frame you, why don't you push the blame on him? Actually, it's not really a push, Prime Minister Wan is indeed a traitor."
"What does Lord Lin mean?" Fu Yanting asked hurriedly.
Lord Lin replied sternly, "Prime Minister Wan had long been in communication with the State of Chu, preparing to join forces with them to kill you and several other officials in the court, which is why the envoy from the State of Fan sent a letter."
Fu Yanting suddenly realized, his eyes slightly cold, "Now that natural disasters are happening everywhere, I'm afraid that the Fan Kingdom will not be able to protect itself."
Lord Lin said quickly: "The famine in Fan State is much better than that in Dayong Dynasty. Once the famine is over, they may raise an army and flatten our place."
Fu Yanting's face darkened.
Lord Lin said with a sad face: "It is not possible to rely on Prime Minister Wan and that useless dog emperor. Although there is a famine, the country cannot be destroyed!"
Fu Yanting raised his eyes and said, "You mean, you want me and my father to rebuild the army and establish ourselves as kings?"
Lord Lin nodded and said, "That's right, General. The reason I have survived until now is to find you to discuss this matter. Now it seems that only your Fu family can protect the remaining people of our Dayong Dynasty!"
