"Hei Wa! Hei Wa!"

The man saw that his son closed his eyes and called him nervously.

But the child still had his eyes closed and lay motionless, and his pale and cracked lips seemed to indicate that the child's life was slipping away.

The man hugged the child tightly in his arms, shaking his shoulders and sobbing silently and desperately. If possible, he really wanted to exchange his life for his son's life.

The woman behind the man was also covering her face and crying. Her child's only wish from birth to death was to have a full meal.

As a mother, she still hasn't been able to make her child happy. It's because of her incompetence as a mother!

"Heiwa's father, I don't want to live anymore! Let's die here and accompany Heiwa on the road together! Ahhhh!"

The woman suddenly collapsed, snatched the child from the man's arms and ran against a big rock in front of her!

The refugees on the road looked at the miserable plight of the family of three with numb expressions.

It's not that they are cold-blooded, it's that they are facing the same desperate situation. They also have babies with colds in their arms, and even they themselves are suffering from the cold.

Maybe they will be the next to fall.

"The whole of Da Deng is suffering from famine now. Does Yanjing really have food as rumored?"

A refugee looked numbly in the direction of Yanjing and talked to himself.

No one answered him.

Everyone moved forward mechanically.

They don’t know if they can survive if they continue to move forward, but where else can they go if they don’t move forward?

Where in this world is there any place for them?

"What does it smell like?"

“I smell food!”

"That's the post station in Yanjing!"

“There’s food there!”

A rich aroma of rice wafted over, instantly making the lifeless group of refugees excited!

They ran towards the post station excitedly!

"You are a Yanjing person now! Yanjing welcomes you!"

There are two big sentences written on the wall of the post station!

Some of these refugees were literate, and when they saw the words on the wall of the post station, they couldn't help but read them out loud.

For some reason, he suddenly burst into tears while reading these words!

Now he has a place to call home, and he no longer has to wander around in fear of his future!

When the officials at the post station saw another group of refugees coming, they were all excited and started beating drums and gongs and shouting:

"Come on, come on! Brothers! Get food on the left and medicine on the right!"

Haha, today’s performance must exceed the target!

Because Xie Yiyao stipulated that their post station would be rewarded one copper coin for each refugee it received!

In just these two days, most of the officials at these post stations have earned enough to support their wives!

Therefore, seeing the officials at the refugee post station no longer makes them feel annoyed as before.

Instead, he wanted to serve all the refugees well and let them all enter the city with the number plates he gave them!

As long as these refugees register at their post station and then take the number plates they give them to go to Yanjing, they will get a reward!

The refugees looked at the unreasonably enthusiastic officials in disbelief. They looked at the dim sun in the sky in a trance. It wouldn't be possible to see a ghost in broad daylight, right?

However, in the towns they encountered along the way, the officials would drive them away brutally as soon as they saw them, avoiding them like the plague. Why were the officials here so enthusiastic?

There can’t be any conspiracy!

The man holding the little boy was stunned for a moment, and suddenly rushed to the official who was distributing medicine on the right without caring about anything.

"Sir! Sir, please save our child!"

He doesn't care even if there is a huge conspiracy. As long as his children can be saved, he is willing to give his life to these officials!

A doctor on duty saw the boy's pulse and offered him a reward for every patient he treated!

"The child has caught a cold. You are so lucky. If it were in the past, the child would not have been saved!"

"But now we have the magic medicine that the Crown Princess prepared. After taking three doses of the medicine, your child will be able to climb up the roof and tear off the tiles!"

This old doctor works in a clinic in Yanjing City and has now been assigned to this post station.

When the other refugees saw that they could really get the medicinal herbs, they immediately reacted and lined up obediently with excitement as the officials requested!

……

Due to the influx of a large number of refugees, the construction of the new urban area was carried out very quickly, and it was completely completed by the end of June.

In order to allow the people to feel the benefits of the new house more intuitively, Xie Yiyao also specially built a yard which is open to the people for visits at any time.

Then let them decide for themselves whether to move to the new city or continue living in the old city.

Looking at the new house in front of them, which was so unique and completely different from the courtyard they lived in before, the people's faces were filled with shock!

Although they have been shocked every few days since the Crown Princess and the Crown Prince came to Yanjing City, they still feel that everything is so incredible now!

“This yard is so beautiful!”

"Why is this land so flat? There aren't even any potholes!"

"What's on the floor?"

"Hahaha, you country bumpkin, you don't know, right? The Crown Princess said that this is called a brick! It's specially used to build houses, and it can also be used to pave the ground. Look how clean the ground paved with bricks is, there's not even a speck of dirt!"

"I know! I know! I brought these bricks from the kiln factory!"

"Look at this wall! This is a cement wall! Our city wall is reinforced with cement!"

"Tsk tsk tsk~, how much silver will this cost!"

"The Crown Prince and the Crown Princess truly love the people like their own children!"

"Could this be the kind of heated kang that our Crown Princess talked about? The fire from the stove in this heated kang can not only enter the kang, but also the heat can enter the wall!"

"This stove can also be used for cooking and boiling water!"

"Oh my god, this saves a lot of coal!"

"I want to move to a new house! This house is much more spacious and brighter than the one I lived in before!"

"Change, change, change! Change quickly! Don't be too late! There won't be any left!"

The people who had seen the new yard rushed home to get the land deeds!

Soon the old town was emptied!

The common people happily moved into the new courtyard, and Xie Yiyao demolished and rebuilt the old city.

A new urban area was soon built again!

When the refugees arrive, they can move in directly!

“There really is strength in numbers!”

Xie Yiyao's face was full of emotion. Having work to do, food to eat and clothes to wear are not the most simple wishes of ordinary people!

On the official road leading to Yanjing, a not-so-luxurious carriage was moving slowly forward.

Wang Yu, the king of Linyue State, dressed in plain clothes, was sitting in the carriage with a tired look on his face, thinking about something.

"My Lord, you could have just asked me to come instead of making this trip in person!"

Wang Yu's trusted minister, Li Yuanliang, the prime minister of Linyue State, said with a distressed look on his face.

"I'm really worried. The people of the country are waiting for me to give them food. But where can we get food in this weather? I want to see with my own eyes whether God is particularly kind to Da Deng and gives them endless food, regardless of the life and death of my country of Lu!"

Wang Yu rubbed his eyebrows and stared in the direction of Yanjing in a daze.

He was just worrying about how to ask Da Deng to give them food, but then Da Deng's ignorant third prince came to him. It was truly a godsend!

"Li Yuanliang, do you think there are really treasures underground in our Linyue country that can help the people survive this cold disaster?"

Wang Yu asked his confidant with a worried look on his face.

As soon as Wang Yu finished speaking, the carriage suddenly jolted violently, as if it had run over a rock or something.

"Huh? Why isn't the road bumpy at all?"

Li Yuanliang lifted the car curtain with some doubt.

The moment the car curtain was lifted, Wang Yu and Li Yuanliang widened their eyes in shock!
