The streets and alleys of Qingxi County were empty, and the Hujie Army guarded Zhao Fei's wide frame and slowly walked towards the outside of the city on the bluestone pavement.

Seeing Cao Hua enter the car, Chen Yu seemed to have seen a savior. His originally careless temperament now showed a little bit of the expression of his little daughter, muttering pitifully and helplessly:

"Many people have died in the past few days. I saw with my own eyes a few people robbing things, beating people to death, and being hacked to death by yamen runners. The county magistrate originally came to report the news, but later the county magistrate disappeared..."

Zhao Fei shivered slightly, and opened her eyes slightly. After seeing Cao Hua's face, she could no longer suppress the fright she had suffered in the past few days and sobbed softly.

Cao Hua walked to the side and sat down, comforting softly: "Don't be afraid, it's definitely okay if I'm there."

"Mr. Cao..."

Zhao Fei was already timid, and her scare for several days was almost collapsed. Zhuyuan and jade-run body trembled slightly. After finding a little sense of security, she hugged Cao Hua's arm as if she had grabbed a life-saving straw. She hugged her very tightly, as if she was afraid that Cao Hua would run away.

Cao Hua was stunned for a moment, feeling his arms were squeezed by two soft objects, and he wanted to pull out his arms a little embarrassedly. However, Zhao Fei said "Woo-" and shook her head quickly and her eyes were blurred in tears.

Chen Yu quickly began to comfort him again: "Princess, it's okay, don't be afraid, Cao Hua won't leave us."

The maid, Chau, sat next to her, saw this scene with a little embarrassment and explained in a low voice:

"Mr. Cao, the princess has been like this since she was a child. She was so frightened this time. Before she recovered, you can just let her hug her..."

"Well--"

Cao Hua touched his nose and felt a koala hanging on his arm. After thinking about it, he could only let the little widow hold it and look at Chen Yu:

"What's in the car behind?"

Chen Yu was nervous when he saw Cao Hua, his mood quickly returned to normal. At this time, his face calmed a little, and he began to pack up his hair that he had not had time to take care of these days: "Food, I just heard the rebellion in the village, and knew that the people would grab grain, bought some food, and prepared to sell it when the city was closed and sold it to make some money..."

"I'm lucky to have money? Do you know if you want to be beheaded in such a thing?" Cao Hua's face darkened.

Chen Yu pouted, put away his smile, and admitted his mistake with dejectedness:

"I thought it was a rumor, but I didn't expect that things would be so big. Later, I was short of food. I even gave the food to the magistrate, leaving only a little..."

"A little bit?"

Cao Hua blinked in a blink of an eye and looked at the carriage behind him. There were three large carriages, full of them.

Chen Yu was unhappy this time, frowned and pointed outside: "More than 100 people, if they are trapped for a year or two, they will never be able to eat people. If it weren't for seeing that many people outside were robbed of food, I would like to keep more... The money for buying food is counted on your account, I will serve the country..."

Cao Hua's face calmed down a lot, and he shook his head and smiled: "For you still have some conscience, I will settle the account this time."

Chen Yu's mood suddenly improved a little, and she was no longer afraid of finding support. She gradually returned to her usual carefreeness, inserted the small hair ball between her hair bun and shook it, and asked:

"By the way, we have decided to go back to the capital after the Mid-Autumn Festival. Have I sold out my hairpins?"

Cao Hua was not in the mood to talk about this and sighed: "Su Xiangning has already left by boat first. Let's go to Muzhou City first, and then go back to Hangzhou."

"ah?!"

Chen Yu was stunned and immediately complained with a sad face: "Why is Xiao Su so unfaithful? I am still in a messy place, so she left by herself."

When Zhao Fei heard this, she raised her eyes and asked, "Don't you go back directly..." Poor Chuchu.

Cao Hua turned his head and felt Zhao Fei hugging him a little more. He thought for a while: "Don't worry, Sister Fei'er, this time I came here to bring you back safely, but the county magistrate here abandoned the city and fled, and no one maintained order. He had to send the remaining people to Muzhou before Fang La came."

Zhao Fei hugged her for a long time, and her thoughts gradually became clear. After a slight "Oh" sound, she realized that Chen Yu was no longer the one who hugged her. Her haggard face turned red and she gently let go of her hand.

Zhao Fei was quiet for a moment when she looked dignified, but couldn't help but pinch a corner of Cao Hua's sleeve, lowered her head and whispered softly:

"The people are crazy, and the yamen runners are crazy, and they are unreasonable at all... robbing things everywhere and killing people. This was not the case before..."

When Zhao Fei lived in Qingxi, she was under the rule of the old prince. Her golden branches and jade leaves were stable. She went to Bianjing later. She occasionally met poor people, but no one was hysterical in front of her. It can be said that she had never seen any fights since she was a child.

Although he is older, Zhao Fei has never seen people's hearts be sinister and a little too simple. If it weren't for this, she wouldn't have told Xue Jiuquan about being bullied and hoped that Xue Jiuquan would discipline Cao Hua. No wonder Xue Jiuquan commented that she was not very conscientious.

But what I saw in the past few days was beyond Zhao Fei's perception. She robbed and burned and killed without any resentment. Facing the officials and yamen runners, she could not imagine why people became so terrible.

Zhao Fei is already a widow and helpless, and her safety is threatened, so she is as anxious as a drowning person who wants to find a life-saving straw. It is not easy to recover in a short period of time.

Cao Hua looked at his overly frightened sister-in-law and didn't know where to comfort her. He was about to get off the car, but at this time he could only let her pinch a corner of her sleeve.

The 100 Hujie Army quickly joined the Black Feather Guard at the city gate. With the 100 Black Feather Guards, two hundred cavalry were considered elite. When they met Fang La, who had not yet become a big climate, they were more than enough to escape. However, it was a bit difficult to escort the people to Muzhou City.

This morning, the county magistrate abandoned the city and fled. The people who had been locked up for ten days saw the city gates open and ran away for a large part, but there were still many people staying inside and outside. In addition to the late arrival of Shanshan and the elderly and the widows in the city, a refugee team of about a thousand people was formed. Except for the servants of some wealthy families, most of them were the elderly, the weak, the sick and the disabled, and they could not form combat effectiveness, and even the fast movement became a problem.

To get to Muzhou City, you have to bypass Qiandao Lake. The mountain road is about a hundred miles long, not too far. However, it is not easy for so many people with inconvenient legs to walk around twenty miles a day. It will probably take four or five days in the past. If Fang La kills him, he will probably have to leave these people behind.

After Fang La cleaned the battlefield, he could reach Qingxi County at any time. Cao Hua did not stop and set off after placing all his men.
