The fish pond connects the past and present, and the tyrants of the fallen country seek fame every d

"But if the people had other options, why would they resort to such acts as eating their own children?"

Xiao Yanheng put his hands behind his back and for the first time began to waver in his decision.

He looked up at the fading sunset.

"Long Fei, am I particularly incompetent? My achievements over the years have been mediocre, and instead the people have suffered with me."

Upon hearing this, Long Fei knelt down immediately.

"Your Majesty, if it weren't for you, the Great Wei would have ceased to exist long ago. How could someone like Zhang Long, who colludes with foreign enemies, treat the people of the Great Wei well?"

The eunuch in charge hurried upstairs to report.

"Your Majesty, the water source has run out."

Xiao Yanheng clenched his fists, pondered for a long time, and finally turned around and strode towards the palace.

Long Fei pulled the eunuch aside and asked quietly, "Your Majesty, are you going to look for that immortal?"

The eunuch in charge nodded silently.

Then, a barely perceptible sigh slipped from his lips.

He asked worriedly, "General Long, we've troubled the Immortal for so long. Will the Immortal find us annoying and never talk to us again?"

This question left Long Fei speechless for a moment.

He was also confused.

The eunuch in charge spoke again: "But the emperor is very concerned about that immortal..."

That feeling is probably extraordinary.

Maybe it has nothing to do with romance, but it is heavy as a thousand pounds and hard to describe.

Night falls.

Xiao Yanheng handed the letter with the ink still wet to the eunuch in charge, his face more solemn than ever before.

"The national treasury is empty of rare treasures, and I'm afraid they will be disappointed this time." Xiao Yanheng's voice was hoarse.

After these words were spoken, the eunuch in charge's eyes turned slightly red.

He said softly, "The Immortal should be able to sympathize with your Majesty's painstaking efforts. After all, all this is for the benefit of the people."

Xiao Yanheng laughed at himself and waved his hand to tell the eunuch in charge to deliver the letter quickly.

It was not until the next morning that Su Yuan opened Xiao Yanheng's letter.

I was extremely excited when I got home last night, and I dragged Yang Sheng to drink until the bottle of red wine was empty.

That wine is indeed top-notch. I have to find an opportunity to let Xiao Yanheng taste it.

A thought flashed through his mind, and Su Yuan turned on his cell phone.

Sure enough, there is new information.

And it was sent at around nine o'clock last night.

Shouldn't Xiao Yanheng have rested by then?

With doubts in mind, Su Yuan returned to the backyard.

Seeing that the water level in the pond was low again, she saw a letter floating on the water. She hurriedly picked up the letter and added water to the pond at the same time.

"Miss Su, I'm writing this letter out of helplessness. I heard you've been preoccupied with trivial matters lately. The Great Wei has been hit by a drought, with no rain and no harvest. People are now forced to trade their children for food. I beg you to lend a hand and alleviate this urgent food crisis..."

Exchanging children for food?

Isn't this exactly...

The letter in my hand slipped quietly.

Wasn't it that Xiao Yanheng's country was suffering from famine, the displacement of the people, and even the tragedy of cannibalism, which led to some wealthy towns joining forces with Zhang Long to rebel?

No, she couldn't let Xiao Yanheng disappear into history like this.

Su Yuan clenched the letter tightly and hurried back to the house to reply.

Yang Sheng noticed that Su Yuan frequently ran to the garden and wanted to catch up with her but was stopped by her.

Seeing her nervous look, Yang Sheng peeked back out of curiosity.

Then, Yang Sheng jokingly said, "You're so nervous, is there a perfect husband hiding behind you?"

Her face flushed, and she hastily retorted, "There's no such thing as a husband. It's just a little secret of mine. My employer has ordered you not to look at it now!"

After saying this sternly, Su Yuan hurried upstairs.

When he went downstairs again, Su Yuan had already gone to the rice shop alone.

Faced with Su Yuan's question, the shop owner was surprised, "How much do you want to buy?"

"Boss, I need a lot of food now. I want to buy all of it, no matter how much you have." Su Yuan asked anxiously.

The owner looked at Su Yuan with suspicion.

He glanced around cautiously and asked in a low voice, "Little girl, have you heard any rumors recently that make you think the world is coming to an end?"

Su Yuan couldn't help laughing when he heard that.

She immediately pretended to be relaxed and said, "Boss, you're worrying too much. I just want to help those hungry people. As required, I will distribute a bag of food to each household."

After learning the reason, the boss finally felt relieved.

He patted his round belly and laughed, "You really scared me. I thought the plot in the novel had come true. When the end of the world comes, beautiful young girls like you are often the protagonists. I only know one book..."

When Su Yuan heard someone wanted to share the plot of a novel with her, she quickly interrupted her boss.

"Boss, I'm really in a hurry right now. My boss is still waiting for my reply."

Seeing the little girl's eyes red with anxiety, the boss had to give in: "Okay, I won't mention it anymore. I'll pack it up for you right away."

As he said that, the boss called out to all the shop assistants and cleared out all the rice in stock.

But these seem to be insufficient to meet the demand.

Su Yuan went to several nearby stores and cleared them out using the same reason.

In the blink of an eye, hundreds of thousands of dollars were spent.

Looking at everyone carrying bag after bag of rice, the boss gave Su Yuan a thumbs up again.

"You're so lucky to have met such an honest man. Look at this act of kindness. He spent hundreds of thousands of dollars doing good deeds without leaving his name. This is really..."

Thinking of the slightly trembling handwriting in the letter, it was obvious how determined Xiao Yanheng was at that time, and Su Yuan couldn't help but raise the corners of her mouth.

"Yes, he is the best."

He is a good leader who truly cares about the people.

After dealing with the food issue, Su Yuan continued to write a letter to Xiao Yanheng.

Downstairs, Yang Sheng heard that Guo Jiangming went to the hospital to see Old Lady Su.

Since he couldn't find the person, he planned to spread the rumor that Su Yuan was hiding Old Lady Su for personal gain.

And the Su family's property was indeed sold off by Guo Jiangming.

Guo Jiangming had no other choice but to come up with this bad plan.

After much deliberation, Yang Sheng finally took the information upstairs.

"咚咚-"

Su Yuan, who had just finished writing a letter, heard a knock on the door. Guessing it was Yang Sheng, she let him in.

As soon as Yang Sheng entered the room, he saw her immersed in studying the characters of the Wei Dynasty, and he couldn't help but feel a little surprised.

"You are very interested in the history of the Wei Dynasty."

Su Yuan nodded calmly.

"Of course. It's the most mysterious and least documented dynasty in history. I'm curious about its history and I enjoy collecting antiques from that era. Maybe I'll be able to collect even more treasures from that period in the future."

After saying that, Su Yuan smiled at Yang Sheng.

She was giving Yang Sheng a heads-up so that he wouldn't be in a rush when making up his own story in the future.

Then, Su Yuan changed the subject.

"What do you find me for?"

Yang Sheng immediately handed her the photos he had just received.

When Su Yuan saw Guo Jiangming in the photo, her face suddenly darkened.

She raised her head seriously: "Guo Jiangming went to see my grandma?"

"Not only Guo Jiangming, the Wu family is also asking around for news about you." Yang Sheng added.

Hearing this, Su Yuan sneered disdainfully.

"I expected that."

The Wu family's people never get up early unless there is something beneficial to them. The fact that Wu Fan suddenly sent himself flowers was obviously the result of the Wu family's behind-the-scenes instructions.

But she was also a little confused.

"The news of my cooperation with Situ Yefeng spread so quickly?"

A dark light flashed in Yang Sheng's eyes.
