The eldest son is fierce

Chapter 289 I am also gentle!

Outside the South City, more than two hundred refugees gathered together.

Looking at the towering city wall not far away, no one dared to approach it, because there were already dozens of soldiers guarding in front of the city gate, strictly checking people entering Kyoto.

Given their current plight, there is no way they would be allowed to enter Kyoto. A beating would be the least of their worries; they might even lose their lives.

"Mom, I'm so hungry..."

In the crowd, a skinny little girl hugged her mother and said.

She had lost all her energy and her voice was weak.

When the woman heard the child's voice, she felt as if every word was like a knife stabbing her heart, and the pain made her whole body tremble slightly.

However, she no longer had tears in her eyes. She could only gently stroke the girl's cheek and comfort her in a low voice: "Be good, bear with it a little longer, and you will have food."

"Didn't the uncle who saved us last night say that we'd have food to eat when we get to Kyoto?"

Hearing this, the little girl finally showed a hint of anger on her face and asked, "Really? Would uncle lie?"

The woman shook her head slightly and said firmly: "No, uncle will not lie to Nuannuan, Nuannuan is the most obedient..."

She comforted her daughter, but she was still uneasy.

Because there was no food, someone targeted her daughter. She tried her best to escape from the refugees, but that group of people followed her and her daughter like hungry wolves.

The two were forced to the edge of the cliff. In order to avoid becoming food for others, she originally planned to jump off the cliff with her daughter.

Unexpectedly, a man suddenly appeared, killed all the people chasing them with a few swords, and told her that she could survive if she came to Kyoto.

Last night, she, a woman, holding her daughter, followed these refugees and ran nearly fifty miles in half the night to the capital of Dayan.

But she didn't know if there was anything to eat, so she could only pray that what the man said was true...

Otherwise, only death awaits everyone.

"Everyone, those guys last night were all liars."

"Everyone has food to eat in Kyoto, but we've been here for so long and no one cares about us."

At this time, a roar was heard not far away.

The woman looked in the direction of the voice and saw a young man standing up, his face filled with indignation.

"Are we being disobedient? No, we've been sitting here for over two hours without causing any trouble or making any noise. What else do you want from us?"

"It's clearly their incompetence and inaction that have caused us to be engulfed by war and floods. Why can they just sit behind high walls, drinking wine and playing with women?"

"And what about us? We can only sit here and wait to die!"

Wei Xiaoshan clenched his fists and pretended to be furious: "Anyway, I don't want to die."

"If any of you don't want to die, come with me."

"I'll fight my way through this bloody battle with you. I want to ask them if we are still the people of Dayan, and why they treat us so badly and trample on us."

Wei Xiaoshan's words were very inflammatory. Many of the refugees who originally had empty eyes and no spirit at all were actually infected by his words.

Yes, why?

It is obvious that the court is incompetent and the officials are useless, so why should the common people suffer from the disaster?

"Fuck, I'll go with you. If we can't get into the city, we'll freeze to death here tonight."

"I don't want to die, so I'll go too."

"..."

Immediately, many people stood up, all with grim faces, and echoed loudly.

Of course, they are together with the young people and want to set the pace.

Sure enough, when they saw them stand up, many refugees also stood up and followed them to the city gate.

In the distance, Qianniang, holding her daughter, watched this scene and frowned.

She had never seen Wei Xiaoshan and his group before. They did not flee to Kyoto with them. Besides, weren't all the refugees here already skin and bones?

But these people are all young and strong, full of vigor and energy. How could they be refugees?

Qianniang was a little angry. These refugees were in such a state, yet they were still being used to achieve some unknown purposes. It was despicable.

But she didn't say anything, just hugged her daughter and dodged backwards.

At this time, the sound of horse hooves came from the direction of the city gate.

Qianniang subconsciously looked up and saw a handsome young man riding a white horse, and behind him was a long convoy.

There was a huge wooden barrel tied to each carriage. When Qianniang saw the barrels, her eyes were fixed on them and her throat was rolling slightly.

Although the wooden barrel was covered tightly, Qianniang was very sure that it contained food.

As expected, the man did not lie to her and she would be able to survive if she arrived in Kyoto.

The group of refugees who were fooled by Wei Xiaoshan all stopped at this time, staring at the carts of meat porridge, unable to take their eyes off them.

If it weren't for the Jinyiwei guarding the carriage, they would have rushed over to rob it.

"This... this is real. There's real food."

"It turns out those people weren't lying. You can really survive in Kyoto!"

"Great, great, finally there's something to eat."

"..."

Many people burst into tears of joy and cheered.

The young man’s words had indeed stimulated them before, but the stimulation brought by the meat porridge now far exceeded the young man’s instigation.

Everyone stopped at the same time and stared at the slowly approaching porridge cart in a daze, their eyes following the movement of the porridge cart.

Wei Xiaoshan was also stunned and shocked when he saw this scene.

Damn, Qin Song, you are a great general!

You said that Tang Yi came to provide disaster relief, and asked me to take the opportunity to cause a conflict, but you didn't explain clearly how Tang Yi came to provide disaster relief!

I have never seen a disaster relief method that involves directly carrying dozens of buckets of porridge and dozens of carts of steamed buns.

Wei Xiaoshan swallowed subconsciously. What did he say just now?

If you don't give me food or water, I won't let me live. Now Tang Yi has brought dozens of cars. You say you don't give me food or water? Then I will give you enough!

The excuse he had just worked so hard to come up with was exposed just like that.

"Hello everyone, let me introduce myself. I am the prefect of Jingzhao Prefecture, Tang Yi."

Tang Yi jumped off his horse, walked towards the refugees with a smile on his face, and said, "Welcome everyone to Kyoto. I know it's been hard for everyone along the way, but that's all in the past."

"We Kyoto people are warm and hospitable and love making friends. Everyone who comes to Kyoto will definitely feel the warmth of our people."

"For example, although I am a senior official, I am also very gentle."

When Wei Xiaoshan saw Tang Yi approaching, his eyes suddenly lit up.

He really didn't expect that Tang Yi would be so suicidal and dare to approach the enemy without knowing the enemy's situation.

When the refugees heard Tang Yi's words, they were all dumbfounded!

We escaped all the hardships along the way and finally made it to Kyoto.

You call this a visit to Kyoto?!
