After I disguised myself as a man, I became everyone's white moonlight
Chapter 45 The only person she cares about is the person in front of her
"I admire your gentlemanly character, but I do not agree with this kind of blind kindness and goodness. The real culprits are the ones behind the scenes. They disregard human lives and use them as tools for calculation."
Chu Xi has seen so much in just a dozen days, so now she has been trained into a basic form.
When she was reading novels, she felt that there were always various wars in history, and it seemed that they were all chasing fame and fortune and wanted to unify the world.
Now that she has entered this troubled world, she realizes that if she does not take up her sword and point it at the enemy, then the ones who will be slaughtered will be herself and the powerless children, the elderly, women, etc.
She was just an ordinary person, as ordinary as could be, but she knew she didn't want this situation to last for four years.
If the country had really been in a situation like that in the novel where the country was about to be destroyed and the family was ruined and the mountains and rivers were in turmoil for four years, the number of deaths would have been far more than just the number in Yunzhou City.
The panic and unfamiliarity she had when she first entered this world were no longer in her eyes, and were replaced by a heavy, calm, and firm look.
"Instead of blaming yourself, you might as well do something more practical and useful."
Rong Qingzhu was instantly enlightened, "Qi Bai is right, I am obsessed with appearances."
When Tang Yuhuai and Chu Xi turned around and walked into the dyeing workshop, they stopped unconsciously and turned to look at the family members of the burned bodies. The family members of those people were crying uncontrollably, and some of them were kneeling on the ground begging bitterly.
He suddenly realized why Chu Xi had undergone such tremendous changes after only staying in Yunzhou for a dozen days!
After staying in such a dull place for a long time and seeing the separation of life and death, it is really hard not to change.
call.
He doesn't mind others plotting against him, but the person behind the scenes shouldn't be so indifferent to human life. Whose life isn't life?
After the arrival of Rong Qingzhu and his party, Yunzhou gained a new force. Everyone dispersed, some went to the dyeing workshop to help, and some gathered the people in the city every day to check whether there were new plague patients.
Once available, they must be sent to the dyeing workshop for centralized management as soon as possible.
*
A few days later, the first batch of cured patients were finally able to be released. This batch consisted of young people who recovered quickly, and there were about a hundred of them.
The small villages that needed to be rebuilt also rebuilt their houses with the help of officers and soldiers. Although they were not very good, at least they had shelter from the wind and rain.
All the plague patients in Yunzhou were cured forty-six days after Chu Xi and his party arrived in Yunzhou. The last patient was cured that afternoon, and everyone was filled with mixed feelings of sadness and joy.
Some were sad for the people who died during this period, while others were happy that the city could finally return to peace.
Chu Xi stood in the crowd and was infected by the people around him.
Zhou Qingmin crowded around her. When Zhou Qingmin first arrived in Yunzhou, she didn't dare to approach the dyeing workshop easily because of her fear of the epidemic and the unknown.
Later, she couldn't see Chu Xi every day. When Chu Xi came back at night, she was called away by the third brother to discuss things, which made her anxious. Finally, she could only secretly go to the dyeing workshop to help, so that she could get close to Chu Xi and talk to her.
Chu Xi also changed her opinion of her. She had always adopted a policy of avoiding Zhou Qingmin. After all, she was not a real man and she couldn't waste his time.
I thought Zhou Qingmin sneaked into the dyeing workshop just out of curiosity and to get close to her, but later, Zhou Qingmin actually survived. This golden branch and jade leaf put down her airs and did a lot of things honestly.
This took her by surprise.
She had received a modern education and did not care about the distinction between high and low, but the ninth princess had accepted completely feudal ideas.
What was instilled in us was this: All under heaven belongs to the king, and all within the four seas are his subjects.
It was beyond Chu Xi's expectation that Her Royal Highness the Princess, who had such ideas, could do something meaningful.
"Chu Qibai, all the patients in Yunzhou have recovered. Are you happy?" Zhou Qingmin has seen many people struggling to live but being tortured by illness to a point where their life was worse than death. She has deep insights into this.
This trip to Yunzhou had a profound impact on her, and she might never forget it.
"Happy." Chu Xi looked at the faces of the people, which were once again filled with longing and anticipation for the future, as well as joy at being out of danger, and curled his lips unconsciously.
It was a rare and sincere smile, but it almost dazzled Zhou Qingmin's eyes.
She thought, the world is so big, there may be many good-looking people, but the only one she cares about is the one in front of her.
"Chu Qibai, I..."
"Qibai, come here." Zhou Yichen waved at Chu Xi from a distance.
Chu Xi was surprised, but she didn't think too much about it. Even the words that Zhou Qingmin didn't finish saying didn't leave much of a mark in her mind.
"I have asked people to prepare wine and food in the mansion. You have all worked hard during this period of time. You must not stop until you are drunk today." Zhou Yichen called everyone behind him before turning around to talk to Rong Qingzhu and a group of officials.
This attitude is self-evident, and it clearly tells everyone that Chu Qibai is his only confidant.
Rong Qingzhu and Tang Yuhuai were not surprised. Such scenes were not uncommon and there was nothing to be surprised about.
But it was different for the others. Several imperial doctors and accompanying officials glanced at Chu Xi with deep meaning in their eyes.
His Royal Highness the Prince of Yan will be able to add another achievement to Yunzhou's administrative achievements this time. Regardless of whether His Majesty will reward him or not, Zhou Yichen's reputation among the people will rise with the Yunzhou disaster relief.
That night, in the county magistrate's mansion, more than a dozen officials, plus Chu Xi and Zhou Yichen, sat together for a rare meal.
Chu Xi sat closest to Zhou Yichen, right next to him, which clearly meant that they could be on an equal footing.
Chu Xi had been influenced by Zhou Yichen in this period of time, and she no longer had the cautiousness she had in the beginning. She didn't think there was anything wrong with sitting side by side.
The key point is that 484 never said she was ooc.
"The last time I interrogated that group of bandits in Qingfeng Mountain, I found out something that surprised me." Zhou Yichen only said a few polite words at the beginning, and then he leaned slightly closer to Chu Xi and spoke without any scruples.
"What's the matter?" Chu Xi asked.
"The flood in Yunzhou was not an accident. One of the bandits said that two years ago, the big boss suddenly established the Qingfeng Mountain Stronghold and recruited a lot of people. In March, they secretly...drilled a hole in the dam."
Chu Xi was stunned. She almost instinctively picked up the cup next to her and took a sip of the wine. Only when she tasted the alcohol did she realize that she had picked up the wrong cup.
The teacup is on the right.
She calmly put it down and asked, "Is their behavior related to the person behind the scenes?"
Zhou Yichen's lips curled slightly, "Of course, if no one instructed you, why would you suddenly touch the river dam?"
"March, and now it's July. That means they set up this trap long ago, waiting for Your Highness to fall into it." Chu Xi knew the hardships of fighting for the throne, as well as the inevitable calculations along the way.
Even though I knew it, I still felt cold all over.
Just to take the life of one person, hundreds or even thousands of people have to die. This is really...
It's annoying.
