"Sir, look, this..." The commander-in-chief glanced at the situation below the city unbearably, then turned around and asked the young man who was sitting peacefully.
"A bunch of refugees, tell them to get out of here, don't dirty my eyes here, are you tired of screaming and wailing all day long?"
The general had no choice but to frown and shout to the battlements: "You better leave while you wait. This Kailu City is an important defensive town. The imperial envoy dare not neglect it. If there is even the slightest mistake, we will be guilty of losing our heads."
"My lord, my lord, the common people are not looking forward to entering the city. They only hope to give us some supplies to help us tide over the current difficulties."
The general was waiting to answer, but at this time the young man behind him couldn't sit still. He stepped forward, pulled it apart, and shouted to the city: "Get out of here, get out of here. I'm here to kill you."
Haven't I been listening to you crying and howling all day long? Supplies? They are all for the soldiers on the front line, and you have neither the ability to guard the border nor the ability to kill the enemy. What supplies do such a useless group of people want?
?Get out of here as soon as possible. If you dare to make noise again, I will give you twenty military sticks each."
The young man's shouts immediately frightened those who spoke below so that they did not dare to speak. All that was heard were weak moans. The young man cursed and walked back to the desk, picked up the tea cup and took a sip.
He muttered in his mouth: "Xiaojiao, Xiaojiao, why are you going to my father to ask for anything for me for no reason? Not only do you have no oil and water, but you also have to deal with these poor people all day long. I am an imperial envoy who is a troubled person. At best, it's okay.
I have been reused by the Holy One and entrusted with important responsibilities. But if I think about the worst, if something goes wrong in the front line of defense and an army of Han traitors arrives, how can I save my life?"
While he was in a daze, he suddenly heard a strange noise coming from the city gate tower, and then a group of people in different colors suddenly jumped down, and the first one of them rushed towards him with an angry look on his face.
"The enemy is attacking, General Cao will protect me." Just before he could say a word, his thin neck was pinched by a hand. Then he was pinched and lifted up in the air.
"Order them to stop." His life was in the hands of others. The young man had no choice but to follow Lang Fei's words and said to the surrounding officers and soldiers: "Don't move now, don't move now."
"Who are you? Did you know that kidnapping an imperial envoy is a capital crime?" The general was concerned about the young men in Lang Fei's hands and did not dare to act rashly, so he had to speak out to inquire about the details of these people.
"Yes, yes, yes, I am an imperial envoy. You must not hurt me. Otherwise, it will be a serious crime to be beheaded."
Lang Fei glanced at the frightened and pale young man in his hand, narrowed his eyes and said: "Behead? If you make me angry, I will kill your head first."
Upon hearing Lang Fei's words, the young man's pale face lost even a trace of blood, and his lips trembled as he said: "Here, this, hero, spare your life, hero, spare your life." At this moment, the boy was no longer as leisurely as before, and was waiting to be left to Lang Fei.
The people behind him said eagerly as if they had grasped a life-saving straw: "As heroes, how about we discuss it? You see there are soldiers and generals all around. Even if you kill me, it will be difficult for you to escape, right? Not yet.
If so, how about you let me go, and I will pretend that this didn't happen, let you go in peace, and offer a hundred taels of gold?"
"Hey, just these idiots? If Master Zhu wants to leave, what can thousands of people do to me?" Zhu Ganglie squinted his eyes and looked at the young man up and down, and said, "Imperial envoy? Humph, grandpas don't
We are short of money, but if you give me some of the most beautiful girls in the world, Master Zhu can say a few nice words for you in front of Brother Fei."
"Idiot, stop making noise here. Xu Bo, come here and see if you recognize the person in front of you."
As soon as Lang Fei finished speaking, a person walked out from behind the girls, came to Lang Fei's side, looked the young man up and down, and then said with a slight surprise: "Are you Lu Yue? Lu Consort?"
"Are you, are you Xu Bo? You... how come you are with these thieves... uh, heroes?" After being surprised, Lu Yue immediately put on a pitiful expression and said: "Xu Bo, please remember me.
For the sake of being an official in the same dynasty, you beg for mercy on my behalf and let them let me go."
"Huh, Prince Consort Lu, why don't you stay in the capital and enjoy the beauty of the city, but come to Kailu City to cause harm to your neighbors? If you want Mr. Lang to let you go, there is only one thing you need to do, and that is to open the city gate and welcome the refugees from outside.
Healing the sick and giving soup to the hungry. Isn’t this difficult for you?”
Seeing how Xu Bo, a little county magistrate, was arrogant to him, Lu Yue secretly resented him. "Well, Xu Bo, you have a long time to come. You will definitely have a good time. Let's ride on the donkey and read the songbook. We'll see."
Lu Yue cursed secretly in his heart, but did not dare to talk back on the surface. He put on a bitter face and said: "Good man, it's not that I don't agree, but who among the refugees down here knows whether there are spies who have infiltrated the Han bandits, and if they are spied on,
Military situation, if the front line of defense is lost, I will lose my head."
"Huh, if that's the case, do you want to lose your head now?"
After listening to Lang Fei's words, Lu Yue's face became even more bitter. He looked at Xu Bo with a sigh and said, "It's fine to let him go, but what if something really goes wrong?"
Xu Bo smiled coldly and said: "They are all disaster victims, what trouble can happen? Even if there is trouble, I will be responsible for it."
"You, you are a seventh-grade sesame official, can you take this responsibility?" Lu Yue muttered a slander in his mouth. Unfortunately, Lang Fei heard it. He pressed his palm slightly and shouted coldly: "You still dare to talk nonsense?"
"Hero, be gentle, be gentle." Lu Yue, feeling pain, quickly turned back to the general named Cao and ordered: "Open the city gate quickly and welcome them into the city. Order people to set up pots to cook porridge, and summon the medical center in the city.
All the doctors inside treated the injured."
"Yes, I respect your command." The general smiled, bowed in response, waved to the surrounding soldiers, and walked down the tower with him.
"This, this, you are all gone, then why don't I..." Before Lu Yue could speak, Zhu Ganglie glared at him, and he was so frightened that he swallowed the rest of his words.
After a while, a dull "creak" sound was heard from the city gate below, followed by cheers from under the battlements, followed by the noise of chariot shafts, footsteps, horse hooves, and other noisy sounds.
Lang Fei had also let go of Lu Yue at this time, and sat with everyone on the city gate tower watching the situation downstairs.
Thinking of Lang Fei's power, Lu Yue did not dare to run away. He just hid on the edge and whispered to Xu Bo: "These things were all done by you. If something goes wrong, or the Holy One accidentally learns about it, he will mention it."
, but don’t blame me for telling the truth.”
"Humph, I am going to meet the Holy Spirit on this trip. I will naturally report this matter to Your Majesty and I will definitely punish you for dereliction of duty."
After hearing this, Lu Yue didn't take it seriously. He glanced at him twice and curled his lips and said: "You, a small county magistrate, still want to overthrow me, the prince-in-law? I'm dreaming."
"Boy, are you itchy again?" Lu Yue accidentally raised his voice a little higher when he spoke, but the idiot heard him and kicked him staggering. "You are in vain for being an imperial envoy if you refuse to save me.
If Brother Fei hadn't come here to do this or that, I would have killed you long ago, and how could I have allowed you to chatter here."
Seeing the idiot's malicious eyes, Lu Yue didn't dare to speak anymore. He just stared at everyone with evil eyes and cursed in his heart.
After a while, they saw that many refugees had entered the city. When Lang Fei and others were about to go down to visit, a man came up the stairs at the corner of the city tower. It was the general named Cao. He ignored Lu Yue and came to Lang Fei in a few steps.
He stepped forward and said, "Sir, I have ordered people to cook the porridge. However, the doctors at the city's medical center diagnosed and treated some victims and found that most of them were suffering from qi deficiency and physical weakness, mostly caused by fatigue on the road.
, if they want to be cured, they need to rest and recuperate, soothe their nerves and replenish their deficiencies. But the war is raging right now, and Kailu City is the defense center. With the war in chaos, how can there be any conditions for them to rest and rest."
"This." After hearing the reply from General Cao, Lang Fei pondered for a moment and said: "How many people are in urgent need of treatment?"
"According to the medical officer's statistics, there are probably more than a hundred of them. They would have fallen ill long ago due to hunger and cold, otherwise they wouldn't have stayed outside the city."
"Well, you go ahead and order someone to prepare a tank of water. I will have my own way of treating them."
"Thank you so much, sir." General Cao's face was filled with joy, he cupped his fists and bowed before retreating. I don't know whether it was intentional or unintentional. He left in such a hurry that he didn't even look at Lu Yue. This scene was so emotional.
The angry young prince-in-law gritted his teeth and secretly resented it.
After waiting for a cup of tea, he saw that it was almost noon. Lang Fei nodded and said, "Now is the time when Yang Qi is at its strongest. Follow me down to treat the victims."
Everyone nodded, and Zhu Ganglie carried Lu Yue and followed Lang Fei down the tower to the streets in the city.
Looking at the victims crowding the whole street, Lang Fei shook his head and said to Li Yan: "From this point of view, no matter how painful the natural disaster is, it is not as good as the military chaos."
Li Yan nodded and said in a deep voice: "I think that the Han people are also displaced and have difficulty returning home. This trip will definitely end this meaningless war."
Looking at him deeply, Lang Fei stopped answering and walked to the middle of the street. He saw that a stove had been set up in the middle, and the aroma of rice overflowed, attracting a circle of hungry victims to gather around it.
"Sir, the water tank you asked for has been brought here." Following the voice, he saw General Cao and a few soldiers walking from a distance carrying a porcelain tank full of water.
Lang Fei hurriedly took two steps forward and came to a few people. After they leveled the water tank, he reached for the Xumi belt in the medicine room and took out a pill in the blink of an eye.
"Go and tell the medical officers to carry the weak and sick person here." Yun Qi crushed the elixir into pieces, then put it into the water to dissolve it. Lang Fei suddenly remembered something and ordered: "
By the way, we will also bring those soldiers who are sick."
"Yes, I respect your orders, sir." When the general named Cao was about to leave, suddenly a strange fragrance floated from the water. He couldn't help but take a sip, and felt that the fragrance entered his nose and went straight to his head, extinguishing the fatigue from days of hard work.
The feeling was swept away.
"This, this is really a miracle medicine." Seeing him looking at the water tank in a daze, Lang Fei smiled slightly and shouted: "Why don't you go quickly?"
"Yes, yes, yes, sir, wait a moment, I will leave immediately." Seeing Lang Fei's methods, the general became more respectful. After saluting and saying goodbye, he hurried towards the end of the street with a few soldiers.
