After taking care of the chaos in Shiye City, the rest is about rebuilding Shiye City.
Lin Yiqiu could not control these matters for the time being, so he could only prepare a letter to Emperor Qian and ask him to send a new governor.
Thousands of soldiers and horses from the Forbidden Army were stationed around Shiye City to prevent any rebels who escaped from the attack from launching a counterattack.
Lin Yiqiu ordered the remaining people to clean up the battlefield inside and outside the city.
In this riot, almost half of Shiye City was destroyed.
There were only ten people in the city, most of them became refugees and fled the city early.
But even so, countless people died at the hands of these rioters.
Thinking of this, Lin Yiqiu felt a burst of emotion in his heart.
Qian State is already considered a very powerful country in this world.
But within the sheltered country, a riot broke out and tens of thousands of people died.
This is what is said about the prosperity of the people and the suffering of the people.
After the battlefields outside the city are cleaned up, another important thing is to investigate the cause of this riot.
The significance of this incident is huge. Only by finding out the cause can we prevent something like this from happening next time.
To this end, people were sent around to gather information from the surviving refugees.
I hope we can find out the origin and reason of these riots.
If there is a problem with governance, then change politics. If there is a problem with people's livelihood, then improve people's livelihood.
However, after a round of investigation, it seemed that the rioters came out of thin air.
It is completely impossible to find out the reasons for their riots, and it is even difficult to know their identities.
In response, Lin Yiqiu's brows became even more solemn.
In a dilapidated mansion, Lin Yiqiu held his chin with one hand and thought carefully.
Not long after, I saw Cang Hong walking in.
"Most of the refugees have been resettled, and many of them have returned to prepare to rebuild their homes."
"Although this Stone Industry City has been completely destroyed, it is their homeland after all, and no one wants to leave."
"Relocation is the way it is. No matter how dilapidated this Shiye City is, it will still be their home."
Lin Yiqiu nodded.
Then, he asked Cang Hong to come closer and asked: "Do you think this riot was instigated by the eldest princess?"
"You still doubt her?"
Cang Hong said unexpectedly.
Lin Yiqiu shrugged and said: "I'm not a conspiracy theory, I just think she is too suspicious!"
The eldest princess Xia Qingwu is the one Lin Yiqiu is deeply wary of, both when she is in the Wu Kingdom and after she returns.
This woman was definitely brewing some big conspiracy, but Lin Yiqiu wasn't sure yet.
Cang Hong asked a question.
"If the eldest princess instigated this incident, then why is she so silent?"
"We have already finished countering the rebellion, and she didn't react at all. Isn't this unreasonable?"
This makes sense.
If the eldest princess really had some conspiracy, it would be impossible for her not to take any measures during the riot.
Although the emperor conveyed the decree to her, according to Lin Yiqiu's opinion, the eldest princess would never take it to heart.
It was such a good time, but the eldest princess didn't make any move.
Wouldn't it be wasted?
If it were Lin Yiqiu himself, this riot would never end so easily.
If you don’t fish in troubled waters, you’ll probably be sorry for yourself!
"But that group of rioters has no identity and can't be traced. I can't think of anyone else who has the power to organize so many people except the eldest princess."
Lin Yiqiu curled his lips and said.
There is no clue about this matter for the time being, and no further investigation seems to be able to find the truth.
After settling matters in the city for the time being, Lin Yiqiu returned to Yong'an County and visited Gu Jinglan and Tang Zhaoyi.
Under Xia Nianqiao's careful care, the two recovered quickly.
The originally pale complexion became more and more rosy.
Lin Yiqiu discovered for the first time that Xia Nianqiao's greatest advantage seemed to be that she was very good at taking care of others.
If such a girl is brought home as a wife, she should enjoy it very much.
Bah! What are you thinking?
Lin Yiqiu quickly shook his head, walked into the house, and asked about the situation.
Maybe it's because after being rescued by Lin Yiqiu, Lin Yiqiu hugged the princess again.
When Gu Jinglan and Tang Zhaoyi saw him, their faces turned red with embarrassment.
He didn't even dare to look at Tang Zhaoyi head-on, especially Tang Zhaoyi, who always looked at him when he spoke.
It was completely different from his usual sharp-tongued and alert personality in front of the Queen Mother.
In response, Lin Yiqiu could only cough twice to ease the embarrassment.
After all, it's easy for a hero to win a woman's heart when he saves a beautiful girl. Plus, he looks so handsome, so I'm afraid both of them will have to choose him from now on.
Gan! I unknowingly took another person from the emperor's harem. What a sin!
Originally, Lin Yiqiu planned to have someone escort them back after they had almost recovered.
But then I thought about it, if we were attacked by rioters on the way, the consequences would be quite serious.
Anyway, I can't stay in Shiye City for long, so I might as well wait a few days and go back together.
But I just had to wait a few days for something to happen!
The next day, Lin Yiqiu was at the city gate supervising the soldiers repairing the city tower.
At this moment, a patrolling guard hurriedly arrived.
"It's not good! It's not good!"
He screamed in surprise from a distance.
When Lin Yiqiu was confused, he saw that the guards had already arrived in front of him.
The leader jumped off his horse, his face as anxious as the sun at noon.
"Why are you so panicked? The mob is coming again to kill you?"
Lin Yiqiu asked casually.
He thought that no matter how many mobs came, the Imperial Guards like him would be able to take care of them.
The leader knelt on the ground and panted: "It's soldiers from Northern Qi! Governor! We found that soldiers from Northern Qi are approaching Shiye City as fast as possible!"
"What? Soldiers from Northern Qi?"
Lin Yiqiu was also shocked!
Even Cang Hong's expression changed instantly!
Then, Lin Yiqiu quickly stretched out his hand and said: "Bring the map here!"
Someone next to me respectfully handed over a map.
After Lin Yiqiu opened it, he looked at it carefully.
"Where are the soldiers from Northern Qi? Where did they come from?"
"Sir, coming from the northwest! Heading straight for our Stone Industry City! It's probably less than twenty miles away!"
"Northwest?"
Lin Yiqiu quickly searched upwards.
After a while, I patted my head!
"Yangcheng Pass! These Northern Qi soldiers seem to have come from Yangcheng Pass!"
"This timing is too coincidental! We just suppressed the rebellion, and they came?"
Cang Hong was extremely puzzled.
Lin Yiqiu said coldly: "It seems that you have seized the right opportunity and want to take advantage of it!"
"Taking advantage of the situation?"
"That's right, Shiye City is very close to the Northern Qi Dynasty. When the rioters in Shiye City were rioting, they went directly south!"
"It seems that the purpose of the Northern Qi army is very clear. It is to capture Shiye City and threaten the capital of Qian Kingdom!"
Lin Yiqiu understood the intentions of the Northern Qi army in an instant!
At this time, the army came over, obviously trying to make a fortune! This chapter has been completed!
