Chapter 251: Refugee Situation



The speaker was Hua Manhong's youngest son, Hua Hongtao, a fifteen-year-old boy who looked like a little child.

I guess it’s because the baby didn’t get enough nutrition when growing up.

Hua Hongtao's mouth was full of oil as he ate, but Yu Qingqing was a little worried when she saw it. She thought his stomach would definitely not be able to handle eating so much meat suddenly.

Yu Qingqing pulled Hua Qinglu's sleeve and said a few words with her head down.

After Hua Qinglu found out, he spoke up: "Fourth brother, you and your parents should drink more white rice porridge to nourish your stomach. You should eat meat in moderation at the beginning. If you eat too much, your stomach will not be able to handle it and your stomach will hurt."

Hua Qinglu was also worried that their bodies really wouldn't be able to take it.

After hearing this, Hua Hongtao's face turned red but he nodded and turned to drink the porridge.

The family is happy and harmonious, which makes Yu Qingqing feel particularly happy.

My grandparents were finally found, and my mother can finally put her mind at ease.

After lunch, the family chatted for a while and then went to take a nap.

Three quarters past noon, in Prince Chen’s palace.

Yuan Xichen came back in a hurry because he received the news and found the trace of that group of people.

After finishing his business, he came to "Nuanxiang Pavilion" for dinner.

There were more than twenty dishes on the Eight Immortals Table, and the one closer to Yuan Xichen was the braised meat sent from the restaurant.

Yuan Xichen roughly understood the whole story. When he saw the plate of braised meat on the table, he felt his saliva start to flow unconsciously.

"Your Highness, you can try it. It tastes really good. I heard that this was all made by Miss Yu. Our restaurant used to sell braised pig intestines. This is braised pork and vegetables can also be braised.

This dish is a little spicy, you can try a small amount first to see how it tastes.

The one who came this time was Manager Li, because Manager Jiang had something to do at home and went home at noon.

This was Li Guanshi's first visit to the palace, and he was quite nervous. He spoke with extreme caution, as the shopkeeper had instructed him.

I really don’t know what to say, so just keep mentioning Miss Yu.

Manager Li was also rubbing his hands anxiously, and he felt the cold sweat on his forehead never stopped.

When Yuan Xichen heard that Yu Qingqing made it, he wanted to eat it even more.

He picked up a piece of braised pork and immediately smelled the meaty aroma mixed with a spicy taste, without any fishy smell. It tasted really good.

Yuan Xichen ate bite after bite, and became more and more addicted to it.

It was delicious when paired with white rice. I barely touched the other dishes, but this one was already finished.

After eating three bowls of white rice in a row, Yuan Xichen finally put down his chopsticks.

The servants nearby were also stunned by the flax. The prince's appetite increased suddenly.

After Yuan Xichen finished eating, someone brought him water to rinse his mouth and wash his hands.

After eating and drinking his fill, Yuan Xichen felt that he had never eaten anything so delicious before.

Manager Li was also stunned watching from the side. He had always heard that the prince had a poor appetite and a bowl of white rice was enough for one meal.

As a result, what did he see? He saw a prince who was obsessed with eating.

The prince who was eating voraciously just now has gone offline, and now he is a prince with a bit of tsundere.

Yuan Xichen didn't feel very sleepy after lunch, so he went to the yard to practice swordplay.

Yuan Yi practiced with him to activate his meridians.

There was a flash of swords and the whole set of movements was smooth and flowing.

With one move of "ant climbing a tree", Yuan Yi was defeated.

After dancing with the sword, Yuan Xichen felt that his whole body and mind were relaxed, and the blood in his body began to flow, making him feel full of strength.

Yuan Xichen was in a particularly good mood at the moment. After changing his clothes, he went to the pavilion in the garden to appreciate the flowers.

The breeze blows on my face, and the mottled sunlight shines through the leaves, feeling particularly soft on my face.

Under the small wooden bridge is the flowing river, and the fish in the water are swimming happily.

From time to time, the clear calls of birds can be heard among the woods, which sounds very pleasant and melodious.

Yuan Xichen was admiring the beautiful scenery in the pavilion, and in a dark place, a pair of sharp eyes were staring at his back.

After staring for a moment, he walked away unwillingly.

Yuan Xichen seemed to have sensed that gaze, but didn't take it too seriously.

After relaxing completely, Yuan Xichen went straight out of the house and headed towards the horse farm.

Not far from the prince, there is a horse farm belonging to Yuan Xichen. He often goes there to train horses and never lets himself relax.

Yuan Yi brought more than ten people with him and followed closely behind. The prince's safety was of vital importance at all times.

Soon the group arrived at the stables, which were also very large. The steward inside saw the newcomers and said respectfully:

"Your Highness, you are here! Are you going to ride a horse today? Please wait a moment and I will bring you a white horse."

The manager bowed at a 90-degree angle and spoke very carefully.

Yuan Xichen touched the horse's head, whispered a few words to it, and then climbed on the horse.

The horses were running freely on the field, and the sunlight showed a picture of a "handsome man riding a horse".

There are many roses planted around the horse farm, and the entire farm is filled with the unique scent of roses.

Yuan Xichen, on horseback, is handsome and heroic, galloping freely.

After riding the horse for an hour, Yuan Xichen finally had a great time.

After the steward led the horse back, Yuan Xichen changed his clothes and went back home.

But just as he stepped into the mansion, an anxious voice came from behind.

"Your Highness, there's been some disturbance at the town gate. I've observed carefully today and noticed the refugees are tending to gather together.

I personally went to investigate and discovered that a group of people were forming cliques. I'm afraid this isn't a good thing."

A leading soldier dismounted and quickly came to Yuan Xichen to report the situation.

Yuan Xichen frowned after hearing this. These refugees refused to obey the rules and even formed gangs.

Yuan Yi felt that the matter was not simple after hearing this. He asked uncertainly: "You mean the refugees are gathering together, right? How long has this situation been going on?

How many refugees are there outside? Are you arranging porridge distribution?" Yuan Yi felt that someone seemed to be fanning the flames.

The leading officer immediately replied, "Sir, porridge is distributed every day. I have noticed that this phenomenon has only occurred in the past few days. The number of refugees outside seems to be increasing as they cannot be fully accommodated."

"We estimate there are over 100,000 people now, and we haven't made all the arrangements outside yet. Furthermore, my subordinates have noticed that those refugees seem to be targeting men, mostly young ones."

Yuan Xichen said with a gloomy face: "Then spread the word now, saying that the town needs a lot of people to work. Even those who haven't entered the town yet will have the opportunity to work.

However, this matter cannot be made public and needs to be spread privately."
