Sure enough, the people who came to investigate again the next day turned out to be Xianbei people, and the soldiers of Jing Dynasty followed them closely, which was shameful.

The door of Sheng Changan's room was kicked open. One of the Xianbei people took out a portrait and compared it carefully, saying something she could not understand.

She pretended to glance at the portrait casually, and it was only three-quarters similar to her usual attire, and it was completely different from the fact that she was now wearing women's clothes.

Soon these people walked out cursing, leaving behind the dilapidated door and the dejected shopkeeper.

He found some tools from somewhere and managed to fix the door with some difficulty. He sighed again and was in no mood to chat with the person in front of him.

He left after doing his job well, but his back became more hunched.

"Is everything okay?" Shen Huaizhi and others also came over. They didn't expect these people to come here so early in the morning. Fortunately, they were always careful and put on makeup before going to bed at night.

Sheng Changan shook his head slowly. "They can't help it anymore. Can you find a way to contact County Magistrate Zhao?"

Although she asked this, she also knew that Shen Huaizhi must have a way. When he was at the Shangyu County Magistrate's Mansion, he was able to sneak in, so this should not be a big problem for him.

Shen Huaizhi closed the door, and the other four people consciously stood guard at the door. "What do you want to do?"

"I hope their conflict intensifies so that County Magistrate Yang doesn't have time to worry about other things. Then we can find a way to secretly transfer the person out."

"Those women are covered in wounds, some are pregnant, and there are also young children. This task is too difficult." Shen Huaizhi disagreed.

The original plan was just to divert the blame and let Shangyu suffer the consequences, but now with so many people to rescue, the risk is too great.

"I know." Sheng Changan thought of the people he saw in the dungeon last time. There were several beds in the cramped space, and almost all of them were occupied by pregnant women with big bellies.

Their hands and feet were almost all chained, and the children were just huddled in a corner.

For the sake of taste, they would not let these children go hungry, but instead overfeed them, causing some of them to be noticeably overweight. And when they ate, they just mechanically picked at the rice.

There is a limit on the amount of food in each person's bowl, and no matter whether you can eat it or not, you must finish it.

She had already wasted a lot of time and now she didn't know how many of those people were left. She even wanted to burn the place down.

"If we don't save them, they will die," Sheng Changan said in a heavy tone.

Shen Huaizhi opened his mouth. He wanted to say that he didn't care. There were too many deaths in this world. People were dying every moment. The blood on the Meridian Gate in the capital had never dried for a while.

You know, the prevalence of human flesh abuse started in the capital. It was a shock at first, but now he has almost become accustomed to it.

In his opinion, the most important thing to do now is to seize the world as soon as possible, rather than risk being exposed here to save these people who will hinder him.

Sheng Changan raised his eyes and looked directly at Shen Huaizhi, "I must save them. There is no need to send them back to Guangping. It is not safe there at the moment."

"That mountain is quite hidden. With us attracting attention, the Xianbei won't pay much attention to it. We just need to slowly turn our people over there."

"I'll come pick them up after Guangping is pacified." This was the most appropriate solution she could think of. After all, it was too unrealistic to send people back to Guangping, and she didn't know how the situation in Guangping was resolved.

Shen Huaizhi understood that although her tone was that of negotiation, she had said these words so clearly that she must have made plans long ago. No matter how much he tried to persuade her, it was in vain. "I'll go find him tonight."

Sheng Changan curled the corners of his mouth, knowing that Shen Huaizhi had tacitly agreed to her arrangement. "Okay, he can go with us afterwards."

Shen Huaizhi sighed, "When we get back, County Magistrate Wu will tell it again." He won't tell Sheng Changan, but he will tell me, and maybe even complain.

Sheng Chang'an's eyes were filled with smiles. County Magistrate Wu was indeed a little nagging and worrying.

As night slowly fell, Shen Huaizhi began to move.

Sheng Changan slowly opened the window and could see the Xianbei people walking back and forth below. It was clearly the territory of the Jing Dynasty, but the people themselves did not dare to go out, allowing these people to walk around in a swagger.

But it didn't matter. One day, she would make this place her own, preventing these people from invading at will. She would perfect the laws and make people like Gao Meng leave her alone.

"Congratulations to the host, you finally have a sense of identity with this era."

"Xiao Liu, why are you talking suddenly?" She always felt that Xiao Liu should have more than one host, and there seemed to be some delay when she occasionally looked for it.

Xiaoliu did not answer this question. "Host, as long as you win the city defense battle this time, the system reward should make you very satisfied." After that, no matter what Sheng Changan asked, it did not say anything.

Sheng Changan frowned slightly, thinking of its first sentence. What kind of reward would make her very satisfied? What she wanted was news about the original owner. After all, it was she who occupied her body.

Another reason was that she wanted to go back and take a look. Although it hadn't even been a year since she arrived here, she felt like a long time had passed.

But, how is this possible?
