I'm already dressed like a fool, what's wrong with taking the regent into the bridal chamb

On the second day in Jiangcheng, Wen Qingzhi heard about what happened in several nearby cities. Basically, since the heavy rainfall, several city lords gathered together to discuss the matter.

Because they are located in a low position, water easily accumulates here.

So as soon as I realized something was wrong, I started planning a solution.

When they found that the situation was becoming increasingly uncontrollable, they jointly reported it, but for some reason, they were stopped by someone.

They were initially unaware of the situation and thought help would arrive soon. However, they waited for nearly half a year, and the severe flooding caused them to miss the best time for rescue, leading to the current situation.

The Lord of Jiangcheng had a premonition long ago, so he built houses and warehouses on the city wall. He also bought a lot of food in advance, including some edible millets.

That's how it lasted until this moment.

Wen Qingzhi and her friends set up their tent on top of the city wall. There was an open space that was specially cleared for cooking.

At this moment, Wen Qingzhi and the others lit a fire where they were and used it to warm themselves.

The women were busy cooking and making clothes, while all the men went downstairs to clean up the mess and prepare to rebuild their homes.

It was rare for Feng Junxiao to go down with them. It seemed that he had something to discuss and didn't want Wen Qingzhi and others to know.

The two brothers Han Shuo and Han Yan stayed by her side and didn't listen.

"I heard that a city not far from Jiangcheng was also affected by the disaster. They're probably going there too."

Han Yan said as he helped chop wood.

"However, the most serious damage is done to Jiangcheng and Baicheng, as these two cities are located at a slightly lower altitude. However, the Lord of Jiangcheng is also smart and has people move up to the city walls."

Han Yan said, "I heard the rain was so heavy it almost submerged the city walls."

Upon hearing this, Chunyu immediately ran to the edge of the city wall and looked down, "It's so high..."

"Otherwise, how could Baicheng have suffered so many casualties?"

"Then why don't the people of White City go up to the city walls?"

"this…"

Han Yan was speechless for a moment and scratched his head, "I don't know either."

Yeah, why?

Most of the people in Jiangcheng suffered from colds and some had some chronic diseases. Wen Qingzhi and Chang Baicao worked together to treat them and they were cured quickly.

"So, once Jiangcheng is almost done, we can go back?"

Chunyu asked.

"It should be."

"That's great!"

Chunyu whispered, "I thought the journey would be difficult, even dangerous! It seems disaster relief is just like this."

"Our trip went smoothly because everyone in the court was watching, and some people didn't dare to act rashly. Furthermore, it was also thanks to the help of the Regent and the Prefect."

As Wen Qingzhi spoke, she turned around and looked at the Han brothers. A hint of discomfort flashed across their faces, but they didn't say anything else.

There were also many tails following along the way, but they were all cleared out.

As for who sent them, I can guess a little. Unexpectedly, there are only a few people who successfully provided disaster relief this time, and I can guess who they are.

"Miss Wen."

A young woman came to Wen Qingzhi and handed her a bowl of rice porridge. "Mother said the food will take a while, so you can eat this first. Don't go hungry."

After Wen Qingzhi came to Jiangcheng, she was busy seeing patients and examining their health. The people of Jiangcheng also loved her and Chang Baicao very much.

The people of Jiangcheng enjoyed the ordinary porridge with some salt and the meat of the horse that had died of exhaustion.

Wen Qingzhi also found some candies from [Mudansha]'s house and distributed them to the children.

Faced with these vibrant lives, Wen Qingzhi couldn't help but feel happy.

"Beautiful sister, is the capital city fun?"

A child pulled Wen Qingzhi's sleeve and asked curiously.

"Beijing..."

She instantly remembered the smoky and foul place in the village and said, "Maybe some people like it."

"Later, when you grow up, you can go and see it."

Jiangcheng is located in the southern border area of ​​Beiming, far away from the capital and relatively poor.

For them, the capital city holds great temptation.

The greatest wish of the people in Jiangcheng in this life is to visit the capital, but often, they may not be able to realize this wish even after several generations.

"I will definitely go!"

The little guy held his head high and said, "My grandfather said that the capital is very beautiful. He has never been there. But I will work hard, make a lot of money, and then go to the capital to take a look!"

"That way, I'll be the most promising person in Jiangcheng!"

Are promising people going to visit the capital just to take a look?

"Then, you must work hard."

Wen Qingzhi smiled faintly.

"He dreams of going to the capital."

The little guy's mother came over, pulled him into her arms, and smiled lovingly, "It's not that easy to get to the capital, is it? Who among us in Jiangcheng doesn't want to go to the capital to take a look?"

The more she spoke, the more bitter her smile became. "In Jiangcheng, for generations, people haven't been able to leave this city. The farthest they've gone is to the city next door."

There seemed to be helplessness and disappointment in her eyes. "A place like the capital, how can we poor people go there?"

The woman said, looking into the distance, "We are the first line of defense in the Northern Sea. If the Southern Liang invades, we..."

She suddenly choked up and stopped talking.

But Wen Qingzhi already understood that if Nanliang invaded, their Jiangcheng would be the first victim.

There is a river one hundred miles south of Jiangcheng, and Nanliang is across the river.

In the past few months, Jiangcheng has suffered from floods and rivers have risen sharply, and Nanliang has also been affected, so it did not launch an attack.

Now, it has been more than a few months since the border disaster between the two countries. The people of Jiangcheng have gone to inquire and it seems that the situation over there is better than theirs.

In addition to worrying about the flood all day long, they also had to worry about whether Southern Liang would launch an attack.

Wen Qingzhi originally thought that the soldiers guarding the border should be brave and good at fighting, but she didn't find out until she came to Jiangcheng -

The entire city of Jiangcheng was filled with the elderly, the weak, women and children, and the remaining half of the soldiers were all skinny.

She didn't dare to think about it. If Nanliang launched an attack at this moment, how would the people in this city resist?
