My darlings! Before we begin, I'd like to ask a question: In the early stages of a time-travel/rebirth story, does the female lead need romantic relationships?
Some people in the comments section said that the opening lacked emotion.
I'd like to ask, if a protagonist who has transmigrated to another world and been reborn is already emotionally charged upon arrival, can everyone accept that?
Feel free to leave your thoughts in the comments section, thank you!!!
………………
The moment the guards shouted, everyone—from the disaster victims to the county magistrate and soldiers on the city wall—quickly stopped arguing.
Only then did they realize that three carriages had already stopped in front of the city gate.
Neither the county magistrate nor the disaster victims expected the War King to come in person; they were all staring blankly at the carriage.
The guards saw a group of foolish, dumbfounded people staring blankly into space.
He raised his voice three octaves, "Are you deaf? His Highness the War King has arrived!..."
At this moment, the county magistrate on the city wall, still in a daze, suddenly remembered that he had to go and greet the emperor.
But the city gates were already closed; how could he receive the emperor?
The county magistrate considered the pros and cons in his mind.
He can't let the War King enter the city...
The War King is a great hero in the hearts of the people.
Anyone can fall, but the War King cannot fall.
So the county magistrate made up his mind.
thump!
The county magistrate knelt down directly on the city wall.
When the county magistrate knelt down, the soldiers on the city wall followed suit.
Needless to say, the refugees all knelt down in unison.
The county magistrate was exhausted from trying to persuade the people below the city.
Kneeling on the city wall feels a little more comfortable now, doesn't it?
However, he couldn't just kneel there without saying a word.
With the county magistrate absent, he was the highest-ranking official here, and he reluctantly kowtowed to Ouyang Yuqing.
"This humble subject respectfully welcomes Your Highness, the War King!"
Long live His Highness the War King! Long live the War King!
After the county magistrate greeted them, the soldiers and civilians also began to kowtow.
"Long live His Highness the War King! Long live the War King!"
With the people welcoming him, Ouyang Yuqing naturally could not remain seated in the carriage.
He stood up, pulled Shen Yingying out of the carriage, and said to the crowd, "Rise!"
When the county magistrate heard Ouyang Yuqing tell him to rise, he was the first to raise his head and respectfully say to Ouyang Yuqing, "Your Highness, a plague has been discovered in Chaoyang County. Please forgive this humble subject for not being able to open the city gates."
I hope Your Highness will not take offense...
When the people heard the county magistrate tell His Highness the Prince of War that there was a plague in the city, they completely believed him this time.
But the people were still somewhat resentful.
Ouyang Yuqing had known about the plague for a long time, and his purpose in coming was to cure it.
So after listening to the county magistrate's report, he said directly to the magistrate, "I am aware of the plague situation. The purpose of my visit is twofold: first, to resolve the plague, and second, to provide disaster relief."
When the county magistrate heard Ouyang Yuqing say this, his pupils dilated.
What did he hear?
Can His Highness the War King solve the plague?
How is that possible?
Throughout history, this plague has killed anyone who contracted it, and he was always prepared to sacrifice himself at any time.
But what did he hear?
This is impossible, absolutely impossible...
Not only the county magistrate on the city wall, but also the soldiers on the city wall and the people below did not believe it.
Ouyang Yuqing saw the county magistrate and a group of disaster victims staring blankly with disbelief.
His primary task was to intimidate these people.
So Ouyang Yuqing put his arm around Shen Yingying's waist and used his lightness skill to leap to the front of the county magistrate on the city wall.
After Ouyang Yuqing and his companion stood on the city wall, they addressed the people outside the city: "Don't panic, everyone. I will stand with you through this plague and disaster together."
When Ouyang Yuqing revealed her lightness skill, everyone on and below the city wall admired her immensely.
Such a leap in altitude is simply divine.
At this moment, some of the people kneeling on the ground believed that Ouyang Yuqing could cure the plague.
Otherwise, why would His Highness the War King personally come to this dangerous place?
Isn't that just asking for death?
Everyone was impressed by Ouyang Yuqing's remarkable leap in skill.
At this moment, the guards seized the opportunity to shout towards the city wall, "Open the city gates immediately!"
The county magistrate was startled by the shout and looked at Ouyang Yuqing.
"Your Highness, this..."
Ouyang Yuqing knew the county magistrate's worries, so he waved his hand and said to him, "It's alright, just open the city gates and let the disaster victims into the city."
I already possess a good medicine to cure the plague, which can ensure that the people can safely get through the epidemic.
