Xie Fanjin said, "The Bingzhou prefect also has his concerns. As long as you stick to your duties and don't cause trouble, there won't be any problems."
Xie Fanjin saw that every disaster victim had received dry food, and then said: "Although my dry food is not much, but you can eat half a piece at each meal, which is enough. You will be able to hold on until the end."
The victims immediately knelt on the ground and thanked Xie Fanjin profusely: "Thank you so much, benefactor. We will never forget your kindness. If we can settle down in the north as you said, we will definitely set up a longevity tablet for you!"
Xie Fanjin pulled Xiao Yanxi over and said, "This wasn't all my fault. He also helped a lot. But you don't have to thank us. Just stay out of trouble and help the people in need."
Everyone was shocked when they saw Xiao Yanxi's face.
After Xie Fanjin and Xiao Yanxi walked away, someone finally realized, "There are officials here. They're going to exile, right? Could that handsome man be Dongling's most handsome man, the Crown Prince?"
Cheng Gang didn't expect that the refugees would stop pestering him after taking a few pieces of dry food.
According to common sense, shouldn't refugees rob whatever they see, and kill if they can't rob? Why are they so obedient?
He was still waiting to see Xie Fanjin and Xiao Yanxi being besieged by the disaster victims and their belongings being looted!
Bingzhou only allows people to leave but not enter. Once you leave Bingzhou, you will see many sick victims gathered together. When they see someone coming out of the city gate, they rush over like a swarm of swarms.
As soon as Cheng Gang raised his hand, the officers immediately drew their swords.
"Sir, give us something to eat!"
"Sir, help! The child's father was washed away by the flood. The child and I are the only ones left. The child is starving to death!"
The victims surrounded everyone, some begged desperately, some looked numb, and some had fierce looks on their faces.
Bing Yi finally remembered something when he saw this: "Such a devastating disaster has struck Zhongzhou. The imperial court will not ignore it. Just hold on a little longer. Perhaps relief grain will arrive soon!"
Upon hearing this, several civilians sat down on the ground, slapping their hands in anger. "Oh, God, the palace is too far away from Zhongzhou. Even if there is relief food, we will starve to death by the time it arrives!"
Xie Fanjin wanted to calculate where the relief grain had arrived and how long it would take to reach Zhongzhou, but he was surprised to find no information at all.
She looked at Xiao Yanxi in surprise: "The court didn't send disaster relief grain?"
Xiao Yanxi's face was solemn. "Two years ago, the imperial court allocated 300,000 taels of silver to build a river embankment in Zhongzhou. A year later, a flood struck Zhongzhou. The main cause was shoddy workmanship. If this matter were reported to the imperial court and they sent someone to investigate, those corrupt officials would face a terrible end."
When Old Master Chen overheard Xiao Yanxi's words, his face immediately turned pale and he collapsed, holding onto the city wall behind him.
The problem that he had been trying to avoid these days was finally revealed by Xiao Yanxi.
Xiao Yanxi seemed to sense something and glanced sideways at Old Man Chen, who quickly turned away in panic.
Xie Fanjin's eyes widened. "So, Zhongzhou didn't report the flooding incident to the court at all?"
Xiao Yanxi remained silent, and Xie Fanjin's expression became even uglier. "I really want to meet with the officials from Zhongzhou."
Xiao Yanxi raised the corner of his mouth and sneered, "They will come to my door on their own initiative."
"My child... my child... please give the child back to us..."
Suddenly, a woman's wailing was heard in the distance. Everyone looked over and saw several men trying to grab the child in her arms.
The little kid was about three or four years old, with fear all over his face. He opened his mouth wide, his face was blue and purple, and he was crying so hard that he couldn't breathe.
One of the men kicked the woman hard, causing her to fall to the ground, and the child was taken away.
At this time, another group of people rushed over from not far away and started fighting with those who had robbed the child.
The woman sat on the ground, clutching her chest: "Child... my child..."
After a while, the group that rushed out later won and the child fell into their hands.
Everyone thought that these people were heroes who came to the rescue when they saw injustice.
The woman had no strength left. She knelt and crawled over to kowtow to those people: "Thank you, thank you benefactor for saving my child. Your kindness is so great..."
Before he could finish his words, the bearded man in the lead laughed out loud: "Do you think we are so bored that we would save your child?"
The woman's originally sallow face suddenly turned as pale as paper. She was a little uncertain: "You..."
Another man laughed and said, "Of course we cook them... The flesh of three or four-year-old children is the most tender and smooth, and even without oil, it's incredibly delicious..."
The woman couldn't bear the blow and spat out a mouthful of blood. She stretched out her hand towards them with difficulty: "Give me back my child..."
"I'll give it back to you. You wish!" Finally, the man kicked the woman, and the group dragged the struggling child to a place not far away.
There is a pot in that direction, with boiling water in it.
"Don't...eat me...you eat me...let go of my child..." The woman crawled towards the child with difficulty.
Xie Fanjin finally couldn't bear it anymore. Xiao Yanxi raised his hand, and Bingyi rushed over and knocked those people down.
Those people looked at Bing Yi with anger: "What are you doing? I warned you not to meddle in other people's business!"
The bearded man clutched his painful shoulder and yelled, "Damn it, brothers! Let's kill him and roast him!"
These people were simply mad and heartless. Xie Fanjin still felt unsatisfied and said to Bingyi, "Throw them into the pot and let them taste the bitter taste of being boiled!"
Bingyi threw the children to the woman, picked up one in each hand and threw them into the boiling pot. The two men screamed and struggled desperately. Just as one of them was about to get out of the pot, Bingyi threw the other one in as well, and also threw the men who had snatched the children before.
The originally lifeless refugee camp suddenly exploded, and several waves of people ran towards this side like crazy.
Bingyi's face changed, and he thought those people were here to deal with him.
Then I heard someone excitedly shouting, "We have meat to eat, we have meat to eat... That's great..."
I saw a group of people rushing to the hot pot, fishing out the person who was still alive in the pot and scrambling to share the food.
Seeing this, Xie Fanjin and several other girls covered their mouths and almost vomited.
Mrs. Chen San clutched her chest, her face filled with pain: "Are they devils? They actually eat people..."
Jin burst into tears: "He's still alive, and he's just biting her. How disgusting..."
Xiao Zhenzhen's face turned pale: "Third brother, what should we do?"
Cheng Gang turned around and looked at them with a cold face: "What else can we do? If we don't want to be eaten, leave quickly!"
