"good."
The oxcart moved slowly down the street. Although many people looked on with curiosity, their eyes were filled with nothing but curiosity, and even a kind of simple enthusiasm.
As they passed through the city gate, they heard a commotion. Looking in the direction of the sound, they saw soldiers and refugees patiently queuing up to register.
The officers and soldiers sat in three rows, each holding a calligraphy brush. One was responsible for asking questions, and another for writing. Next to them stood soldiers holding rifles, looking dignified.
Anyone who dares to cause trouble will probably be pierced through by a spear.
Seeing that everyone, young and old, was queuing up obediently and not daring to speak loudly, it was clear that after yesterday's incident and the porridge distribution last night, no one dared to cause any more trouble.
Shulan watched all this and subconsciously looked up to search for the bearded man's figure.
But they couldn't find that figure and assumed that the person had probably left.
Little did they know that a tall figure stood atop the city wall, watching the curious young woman on the oxcart, her eyes filled with wonder at everything new and exciting.
He Fengling's voice came from behind: "What are you looking at?"
He was slowly pushed over in his wheelchair by Shi San.

They feared that if they sent people to "borrow" grain from here, Chi Yan and Kan Jin would take even bigger actions, and in the end, it would be the refugees outside the city who would suffer.
Now that the general has returned, they have already arranged for another subordinate general, Qu Ming, who is known for his straightforward and fiery temper and is quick to take action when he is unhappy, to 'borrow' grain.
In this way, not only will we not have to worry about food for the next two months, but we will also have a surplus.
He Fengmian hummed in agreement and turned to leave.
He Fengling didn't rush to follow, but instead looked at the spot where his underling had stood and revealed a fox-like smile.
With a rather wicked grin, he said, "Looks like someone's going to suffer!"
