Chapter 219: Shuigan City Prefect Surrenders

Wu Yueqin came to the gate of Shuigan City Prefecture Government Office alone on horseback.

There was actually a gatekeeper at the gate.

He was a young and strong man with a good body. He looked like a yamen runner and was standing in front of the gate with a big knife in his hand.

"Who is coming?" The man saw that Wu Yueqin was so energetic, did not look sick at all, and was riding a horse.

"I am here to save your people. Is your prefect still alive?" Wu Yueqin asked directly.

The man was stunned. Who can save them?

Even the emperor has given up on them. In ten days at most, this city will be burned down.

When he thought of this, the hand holding the knife softened a little. He has not been infected yet, but he has nowhere to escape. General Hua has guarded every intersection tightly, and no civilian can get through.

He can only wait to die.

"Young master, can you really save us?" The big man looked at Wu Yueqin on the horse eagerly, and did not continue to ask about his identity. It is useless to know his identity at this time. Can the emperor send someone to save them again? It has been decided to burn them. "

Of course."

"Our master is still alive, but he is not far from death. He is in the back court. I will take you to see him." The big man paused again, "Young master, are you afraid of being infected?"

This big man is still more conscientious. Seeing that Wu Yueqin is full of energy, he must be healthy. Don't let the master infect him.

"Lead the way. I am strong and healthy. I am not afraid of being infected." In fact, he had taken the elixir specially made by Feng Tianxing.

The big man took Wu Yueqin to the back court, where the prefect lived after work. There

was even a maid carrying water to a room.

She was also in good health.

"Xiao Shuang, is the master okay?" The big man called the maid.

"Brother Chen, the master hasn't eaten much for two days. I'm afraid he won't live long." The maid named Xiao Shuang stopped and replied, but her eyes were looking at Wu Yueqin, whom she didn't recognize.

"I'll take this young man to see the master." The big man went directly to the prefect's bedroom and opened the door.

It was daytime now, and the situation inside could be seen clearly at a glance.

A half-dead man was lying on the bed. He was surprisingly young, with his eyes open, which meant he was awake.

Wu Yueqin understood immediately. This kind of border town was the most likely to cause conflicts between the two countries, and one could lose his life if he was not careful.

Those who had served in office for many years had tried to transfer away, and only the young ones with no connections were arranged to be prefects here. Of course, there were also those who wanted to gain experience and gain qualifications.

"Lord Mo." Wu Yueqin had already learned about this person from Song Shuan.

Mo Han heard the unfamiliar voice and turned his head slowly. He saw a young man who was not even twenty years old standing by his bed.

The most important thing was that the other party had an unusual spirit, and did not have the listlessness of facing death at all.

"Who are you?" The weak voice made people frown, and it seemed that he was really not far from death.

"I am Wu Yueqin, the grandson of the Prime Minister of the Yanyan Kingdom. I am one of the members sent by the Yanyan Kingdom to fight the epidemic. I have something to talk to you about. Are you still in the mood to listen?"

Wu Yueqin generously found a stool and sat down in front of the bed.

Although Mo Han was shocked, he couldn't protect himself. Maybe he would be dead tomorrow. What else did he have to think about? He nodded slightly.

"The entire Shuigan City has been abandoned by your emperor, and you are left to fend for yourself. In a few days, this place will be burned down.

And I, Yanyan, have found a way to deal with the epidemic. Our Crown Prince cares about the world and wants to save the people of Shuigan City, so I am here to scout out the way.

Are you willing to surrender to Yanyan and become a minister of Yanyan Kingdom from now on?"

Wu Yueqin said it clearly, if you want to live, then surrender.

After hearing what Wu Yueqin said, Mo Han's eyes brightened a little, but he did not answer immediately.

Loyalty to the emperor is what he was taught since he was a child. Even though he was born in a poor family, the master taught him since he was a child that all the land under heaven belongs to the king, and all the people in the world are the king's subjects. It is their duty to be loyal to the emperor and love the country.

But the emperor has abandoned him, how can he be loyal? The people of the world only want to survive and have enough food.

His mother died ten days ago because she followed him to take office. His wife and children also died on the same day five days ago. He was the next one.

He surrendered to serve his wise master and died for his country. But was his monarch a wise master? Two cities, hundreds of thousands of people, just give up.

Thinking of this, Mo Han felt cold to the bone.

Tears fell instantly.

Wu Yueqin did not urge him, waiting for him to figure it out.

A quarter of an hour passed.

"Okay, I surrender. You must guarantee that you can save the people of Shuigan City." He said this very hard, as if he suddenly had infinite power to support him.

He wanted to live.

He wanted to see the people escape the fate of death.

If there was no place for him in the future, he could die to apologize.

"In fact, whether you surrender or not, we will do our best to treat the people. If you don't surrender, you will be the only one who will die." Wu Yueqin really has a bad taste, he could have avoided saying this.

Mo Han was so angry that he almost jumped off the bed. But he was also relieved that the people were saved.

"Well, since you are willing to surrender my flames, I will reward you with a good medicine."

Wu Yueqin didn't care whether he felt good or not, he stuffed a pill into his mouth and forced him to swallow it.

Then he strode away.

Mo Han heard Wu Yueqin's high-pitched voice coming from outside the door: "When you can move, come out and organize the people to take the medicine together."

As soon as Wu Yueqin came out, he saw that several cars of medicine escorted by Feng Yuanhan had also arrived.

The two men directly took the big pot from the government kitchen, moved it to the front door, set it up and began to boil the medicine.

"Fellow villagers, line up. Once the medicine is boiled, everyone will have a bowl. Don't crowd. Everyone will have a share and everyone will survive." Wu Yueqin saw people coming one after another and shouted at the top of his voice.

In fact, there were only a few people, so how could there be crowds?

Of course, he was prepared for a rainy day.

In a day, there would definitely be crowds.

When the first pot of medicine was ready, Feng Yuanhan poured a bottle of spiritual liquid into it.

A commoner who was close to see it said, "Sir, what did you pour?"

"The magic water, we Flame are blessed by the gods." Feng Yuanhan said the truth as a lie.

But after the common people drank the medicine soup, they really believed that it was the magic water. Everyone believed that it was really the magic water.

Because after they drank it, their bodies obviously felt less uncomfortable and their spirits were much better.

Hope filled everyone's heart at this moment.

"I feel better, I don't have to die."

"I also feel that my body is not so heavy."

"My father is still alive, I want to bring a bowl back to my father."

"My wife is still lying in bed, I will go home to get a bowl now."

...

Just like that, people's hearts finally came back to life.

Then the news that Flame Kingdom sent people to rescue them spread quickly.

All the people who could move around shouted: "We are saved, we are saved. Let's go to the government office to take medicine."

At the same time, Guan Jinsong led the army, passed through Shuigan City, and then headed towards Qingshui City.

He stopped only when he saw the army of Shuilong Kingdom from a distance.

Guan Jinsong quickly deployed defenses and took over the military jurisdiction of Qingshui City.

He had never occupied a city so easily in his life.

Should we take the opportunity to advance further?
