Chapter 80

There is a house in Handan where a young guest lived. His surname was Chen and his name was Yipin. He was about fifteen or sixteen years old this year. He was originally from Wei and came to Handan to study last year. Unexpectedly, the Qin army rushed to Handan just a few minutes later. He was taken in by his friends and stayed there for the time being, and watched the Qin people empty the Zhao Palace.

It was difficult to return home after winter, so Chen Ping lived in the beginning of spring again. As a result, the weather was just warmer and news of famine outside spread.

My friend was afraid that something might happen to him on the road, so he didn't let him go, so he kept him there. Even though there was not much food at home, he still kept eating with Chen Ping first.

Chen Ping was moved and usually went out to help with the work. When he changed some food, he wanted to accompany his friends to survive this hard life.

Unexpectedly, shortly after, the young master Fusu, who had the rumor of "the arrival of a fairy child in the world", came over, and the original Zhao General Li Mu!

Chen Pingyuan thought that the Qin prince was just here to show off, and he didn't want Fusu to arrange disaster relief matters in full swing as soon as he came, and even led people out of the city to the most severely affected county town.

Chen Ping was curious, and told his friend that he quietly followed him out of the city.

When I got to the place, I saw that the county was indeed a purgatory on earth. Some people starved to death in the village or the wilderness, but no one collected the corpses.

Chen Ping has studied and has visited many places. He is very clear that if these corpses are not processed properly, the disease may not be sure to break out soon.

Chen Ping was hesitating whether to come forward to remind Fusu, but he saw that Fusu had asked someone to enter the village to find all the living people and let them bury the bodies with the people they accompany him.

This place was seriously affected, and many people didn't even know that some people from the county came to deliver food, so they were already staying at home and waiting to die.

Someone came to knock on the door from house to house, and the villagers were still numb at first. When they saw many people wearing Qin soldiers outside, they came to their senses in panic and shouted in panic, "The Qin soldiers are coming."

It was not until Wang Li found the fellow villagers to explain clearly that the villagers walked out of the house in fear. After receiving the food in disbelief, the powerful people followed the well-trained soldiers to collect the bodies of the starved people one by one.

After so long famine, no fewer people died than in the battle on the battlefield. Most of them were skinny and their bodies were not much weight. Even the soldiers who accompanied them were used to life and death, and they still couldn't stand this kind of tragedy. Some of them who had little experience were red when they digging graves.

Fusu and Zhang Liang did not talk, but just watched the villagers cry loudly in front of the dense graves.

After dealing with the body as soon as possible, Fusu asked the accompanying imperial physician to take the pulse of the villagers. After confirming that there was no epidemic, he told them where to get food and where to get work next time. He went to the next village without stopping.

Fusu and his group did a lot of things, but they acted vigorously and decisively. When the villagers came to their senses, they had already walked away.

Those who survived by chance looked at Fusu and others' backs galloping away, and were filled with mixed feelings. They kowtowed a few times in the direction they were moving away before heading towards the village.

After returning home, the villagers hugged their heads and cried with the whole family. Although people died at home, they had just received the grain and received a little grain, and life could continue.

Chen Ping had not entered the village outside the village. After Fusu and his group left the first village, he followed him, but he only followed him on two legs and walked slowly.

After walking a while, Chen Ping turned around and saw that smoke had risen from the village just now, and the world, which was originally as silent as death, finally had a trace of vitality.

Chen Ping withdrew his gaze and continued to walk forward from Fusu and his group. He was jokingly arranged by his fellow villagers to share the meat sacrifices two years ago. Everyone said that he was sharing it quickly and well. At that time, he thought that if he could be a high-ranking official, he would definitely be able to govern the country properly.

Unfortunately, he was an ordinary villager. If he hadn't been fully supported by his brother, he would not have even had the opportunity to study or study abroad, let alone become an official.

Chen Ping also thought about who to join after he finished his studies and gained the advancement level by serving the other party. However, it was just a thought. The biggest official he could come into contact with was probably the county magistrate, and he could only take a look from a distance.

Moreover, none of the ministers and ministers he had known before were the ones he wanted to serve.

Today, when Chen Ping saw Fusu, he suddenly felt a strong curiosity, wanting to see how this young master of Qin would solve the disaster in front of him. In Chen Ping's opinion, war and the drought year are simply a bottomless pit that cannot be filled!

I entered several villages along the road and finally arrived at the county town.

The county town has become dilapidated, with no people on the street, and even the shops that are open can't be seen. The county government has opened its doors, but there are no few people. Only three or two yamen runners guard the front yamen with a numb expression, while the back yamen is quite lively. You can hear the sound of piano and singing through the courtyard wall, and there are also a few laughter from time to time.

Fusu stepped inside, and several yamen runners were startled and asked, but they had been blocked and tied up and threw them aside.

Li You and Wang Li were in front of the road, and they were in front of the yamen runners and servants, and they were gagging and tied up in front of them.

Fusu quickly walked to the Houya and looked up. He saw that the county yard was quite spacious. An open-air stone platform was built. A person dressed as a county magistrate was listening to the singer playing the piano and singing a small song on the stage. He was chatting with the people next to him: "Don't worry, how could a spoiled young man come in a place like ours?"

Someone laughed and replied, "That's right, just say that you are here to provide disaster relief and act like a gesture. When the untouchables die, they will give some food to finish."

Another man also said: "Yes, just use a few bites of rice to block the mouths of those untouchables, how could they remember anything else?"

The singer on the stage saw Fusu and his group coming in, and his hands were playing the piano paused, but as the county magistrate and their conversation continued, her singing voice was gentle and gentle, and it didn't sound like Zhao's accent.

Perhaps because the singer lowered her voice, Fusu could hear the conversation between the county magistrates clearly.

It seems that the disaster in this place is so serious that it has nothing to do with these people.

Fusu turned his head and looked at Li You.

Li You knew it and led people forward with a heavy expression to take down the county magistrates who listened to the music.

Li You once followed Meng Tian to practice martial arts. Although he couldn't say that he had learned very well, he never forgot what Meng Tian asked him to remember, "Those who practice martial arts should be pity to the weak."

For the elderly, weak, women and children who have suffered misfortunes, he would not say that he would help each other. At least he would not have the leisure to listen to the beauty singing songs even though he knew that so many people were starving to death.

There is such a group of county officials, no wonder they were exhausted just to help the villagers bury their bodies.

The county magistrates were tied up and wanted to defend themselves in panic, but they were blocked and could not say a word at all.

The singer who was singing the song just now was much calmer than the county magistrates. She stood up and walked to Fusu to bow, saying that she was not from Handan County, but brought by the county magistrate from Xianyang.

In fact, Xianyang is not her hometown. She was originally from Le Xinzheng and was bought by the county magistrate and went home.

Because she had also experienced a great change in the country's destruction and was worried about the victims' experience, she had clearly seen Fusu and the others come in, but she did not stop to remind the county officials.

After hearing this, Fusu couldn't help but look at Zhang Liang.

In short, this singer and Zhang Liang are actually fellow villagers.

Zhang Liang didn't have so many thoughts. He took a step forward when others didn't react, raised his hand and hit the singer hard on the wrist, knocking down the dagger hidden under his sleeve.

The singer's wrist hurt. Wang Li, who was beside him, saw the sharp dagger falling to the ground, immediately stepped forward to capture the singer.

"Zhang Liang, you are also a Korean. Why are you helping Qin?" The singer shouted, her mouth was blocked. She looked at Zhang Liang who was protecting Fusu unwillingly, and she seemed to know Zhang Liang.

Zhang Liang retreated to Fusu's side, his eyebrows and eyes were calm, and no one could tell what he was thinking.

Wang Li ordered people to take the tied people down for interrogation, so as not to slander Fusu's ears.

Fusu said to Zhang Liang: "Thank you."

Zhang Liang looked at Fusu and did not agree with some of Fusu's actions: "Don't let everyone get close to talk, this is not Xianyang." Nowadays, Handan County is already in chaos, and anything can happen. He thinks that even if Fusu is willing to provide disaster relief, it is best to stay in Handan only.

Fusu knew that Zhang Liang was concerned about him and nodded and said, "I will pay attention. The situation here is the most serious, but I'm not at ease when I come and see."

Zhang Liang didn't talk much.

The county magistrates were locked up, and no one was in charge of the affairs here for the time being, so Fusu asked someone to summon young men from the city to the county government to arrange disaster relief matters.

After everything was arranged, Fusu finally got free. After Wang Li persuaded him to take a nap.

Zhang Liang also ran along the way, but unexpectedly he didn't feel sleepy. He wanted to see how Wang Li was interrogating, but was blocked by Li You.

Li You said: "That female assassin knows you, you should avoid suspicion."

Zhang Liang did not have the persistence to go to the prison to take a look. He turned around and leaned on the low wall outside the prison, and said calmly: "I don't know her."

"I know." Li You said, "You have a chance to attack the young master."

Even if you don’t like Zhang Liang, Li You must admit that Fusu may prefer and trust Zhang Liang more than himself.

As the two were talking, someone caught a boy and immediately reported respectfully when he saw Li You and Zhang Liang: "This person has been following us sneakily, and some people said he followed him from Handan City."

If there was no female assassin incident, everyone wouldn't care about such a small tail. Someone almost assassinated Fusu from close range just now. The people accompanying him immediately became alert and specially grabbed the small tail in front of Li You.

Zhang Liang turned his head and saw that he was a pretty young man, handsome and beautiful, and didn't look like a thief.

Zhang Liang asked someone to let go of the boy, smiled at him, and asked kindly: "What are you doing with us?"

The boy is naturally Chen Ping.

Seeing Zhang Liang's appearance, Chen Ping was stunned for a moment, and then explained his origin in a lot of ways. Even the few people in the family clearly explained it, for fear that he would be misunderstood.

Chen Ping said: "Mr. Chen was just curious and wanted to see how you would provide disaster relief. He followed the whole way without realizing it." After explaining, his stomach rumbling a few times, but it was obvious that he had not eaten food or brought food along the way. He had indeed followed so far.

Seeing that Chen Ping's eyes were quite honest and his conversation was very insightful, and he didn't look like he was evil, Zhang Liang asked someone to take two freshly steamed buns to cushion Chen Ping's belly.

Chen Ping had never eaten steamed buns, and he felt very soft when he got it. He was indeed hungry. Seeing that Zhang Liang was kind-hearted, he thanked him and bit him down.

The conditions of the county government office are far inferior to Xianyang, but there are several imperial chefs who come with Fusu. The simple food of steamed buns is of course steamed so fragrant, soft and delicious.

Chen Ping solved a soft and fragrant steamed bun in just a few seconds, but he felt that he was still not satisfied and finished eating the other one. Then he thanked again: "Thank you, brother, I don't know what to call it?"

Zhang Liang said: "My surname is Zhang, and the single name is Liang. If you take the name Zifang, you won't be able to grow up to you. You can call me Zifang."

Chen Ping only felt that Zhang Liang's words and deeds were like spring breeze, so he responded with pleasure.

Zhang Liang smiled and invited Chen Ping to sit down and talk. During the conversation, he seemed to ask Chen Ping casually about his experiences in studying abroad in recent years, but in fact he was trying to find out what Chen Ping's knowledge was.

Li You and Zhang Liang were not very good at dealing with each other, but he was quite at ease with Zhang Liang's judgment. Since Zhang Liang felt that this person was fine, Li You didn't care about it anymore and went to the back yamen to guard the door of Fusu, who was taking a nap in the wing room.

The author has something to say:

Zhang Liang: This person looks pretty good, doesn't look like a bad person

Fu Xiaosu:?
