Chapter 190 When it rains, it pours! Shouchun is in danger
He Zhaojun was ashamed. Was she exposed so quickly? She lowered her head and pretended to be sad: "My parents broke off the marriage, and my stepfather's surname is He..."
"Oh, oh, I mentioned this accidentally. Please forgive me, young lady." Li Fu was also a little at a loss, and blamed himself in his heart, why didn't he trust her more.
He Zhaojun turned her head and looked at Wang Yan: "What do you want to say? If you want to keep talking about the same old things and pointing fingers at me and Li Fu, then there's no need to say anything more." She thought that Wang Yan would make sarcastic remarks again when she saw that she was with Li Fu.
Wang Yan listened to the two people talking in confusion. Thinking about how He Zhaojun pretended to be her dowry before entering the city, she understood that she did not want to reveal her identity, so she changed her words accordingly.
"Wang Zhaojun, I have already checked the injured here, but there are still sixteen people who have not been found. I would like to go to the prefectural government to work with the officials to search, so I came here to tell you."
ah?
He Zhaojun blinked. This young lady has changed her personality. Why is she taking the initiative to take on the work?
Wang Yan saw the shock on her face and knew that He Zhaojun had just thought she was coming to provoke her again. She felt frustrated and embarrassed for a moment and said, "I'm leaving now. I don't want to talk to you anymore."
He Zhaojun quickly grabbed her and said, "How come you're not even married to Peng Kun yet, yet you already act like a prefect's wife? I advise you not to be so eager to enter the prefect's mansion. The prefect's power is immense, so it's best not to go."
Knowing that Peng Kun was bound to rebel, how could she watch Wang Yan marry him and become the rebel's new wife? Thinking of how she had almost ended up in the same situation, He Zhaojun would never allow the tragedy to happen again.
"Who thought so! Don't judge others by your own mean heart! I am also from a military family and an orthodox royal lady!" Wang Yan was furious. She had finally changed her opinion of He Zhaojun, but now she felt that she was hateful again.
He Zhaojun was scolded for no reason, but she didn't get angry: "If you don't believe me, go and see for yourself. Don't cry and beg me when the time comes. I don't have time to save you."
The man turned around, climbed onto the carriage, and headed for the prefectural government office without looking back. He Zhaojun gave a wink, and the two soldiers with beacon flags quietly followed.
He Zhaojun turned around and pointed at a few people. "You guys, quickly go check if the food we sent to the various search and rescue sites is enough. If not, keep going. If they don't have enough food, the casualties will be in vain."
"Send a few more strong men to reinforce the tents at the camp. It's cold, so be careful to block the wind!"
Li Fu smiled. "It seems like you and Wang Yan have a terrible relationship. Why are you still reminding her not to marry Peng Kun? Wouldn't it be a great revenge to make her a widow?"
"Wang Yan is unruly and willful, and she's also prone to flattery, but she's not inherently bad, and she hasn't done anything to truly harm me. As a woman, I have no reason to watch her suffer."
"If you repay evil with kindness, how can you repay kindness?"
"I am for everyone, and everyone is for me." He Zhaojun smiled. Women in the new era are not bound by fighting for power. She has her own big things to do.
"Li Fu, come with me to the area around the mine. The injuries are most severe there. Although Peng Kun has already brought people there, I'm worried he's just pretending and might just go on the offensive."
As she spoke, He Zhaojun grabbed the reins and jumped on her horse, followed closely by Li Fu. The group quickly headed towards the mine. He Zhaojun was anxious, not knowing what was happening with her second brother.
Just as she reached the foot of the mountain, He Zhaojun suddenly felt a chill on her head. Snowflakes mixed with raindrops drifted down. She frowned and said, "This rain comes at an unfortunate time. It seems that Shouchun is doomed."
