Chapter 124 Unruly Princess VS Miserable Little Eunuch (10)

As soon as the long line appeared, it attracted everyone's attention, and many people spontaneously gathered beside the carriage, begging.

Most of them are old and weak women and children.

"My lord! Please give us something to eat!"

"I beg my lord!"

"My lord, save my child! He hasn't eaten anything for three days!"

"My lord, please help my mother!"

……

Because they haven't eaten food for a long time, their voices are weak, and they seem to faint in the next second.

Xu Shi was rejected by too many people before, and the crowd did not dare to stop directly in front of the team.

Yu Yimu stopped walking when the crowd surrounded him.

Yu Yimu glanced around, his heart sank, he got off the horse and walked to the carriage without any hesitation.

"Princess……"

Before he finished speaking, a clear voice sounded from inside the carriage.

"General Yu, give them half of the remaining food in the team."

The territory of Yuan City is vast, and the carriage is moving slowly. Now they are still a day away from the center of Yuan City. Along the way, there is not much food left.

However, most of the team are strong and strong soldiers, so it is no problem to eat less.

But these people are sallow and thin, and can't bear hunger...

Yu Yimu paused and nodded.

"Yes."

The original intention of his visit was also the same, and he immediately ordered his subordinates to go down to distribute the food.

Seeing this, these people didn't expect it, and they were stunned. They stopped the convoy, and they didn't have much hope.

Drought, a small steamed bun is precious.

Hunger, only those who have experienced it know how painful it is.

One of the mothers, who was holding a child, knelt beside the carriage, bent over, and her voice trembled.

"Thank you sir, thank you sir!"

At the beginning of one, all the people knelt beside the carriage, excitedly thanking each other one after another.

From Yu Yimu's reaction, they could guess that the person in the carriage was the person in power in the team...

After a while, there was a sigh from inside the carriage, and then the curtain was lifted, and a hand as delicate as a green onion appeared in front of everyone.

Luo Yi got out of the car, she was not dressed gorgeously, just a light blue elegant dress, with a silver mask on her face, she looked a bit mysterious.

She got out of the carriage very gently and helped up the mother who was kneeling in front of the carriage.

"I am Luo Yi, the princess of the Luo Kingdom. I am here to help the disaster under the order of the emperor. These are what I should do."

The voice seemed to have the power to cleanse people's hearts, and the depression in my heart disappeared completely.

The mother was overjoyed, "Then we are saved!"

Hearing this, the people behind were also a little excited, standing up and cheering.

Inside the car, Wen Qingyun lifted the curtain, glanced at Luo Yi who was surrounded by everyone, his eyes narrowed, not knowing what he was thinking, after looking for a while, he put down the curtain again.

The soldiers moved quickly, and all the food was distributed within a few minutes.

Taking advantage of this time, Luo Yi also asked them about the situation in the city, her expression darkened.

Yuancheng is now short of food, and now the people staying in the city are old and weak women and children who can't walk. Almost all the young and strong men have left Yuancheng and went to seek refuge in neighboring cities. Now the whole Yuancheng is almost turning into an empty city.

And Yuancheng had no source of food, so they had no choice but to go to the neighboring city to take refuge, but they hadn't eaten any food for three days, and they couldn't hold on to the long journey...

Yu Yimu was originally supervising the distribution of food by the soldiers, but when he saw Luo Yi's expression was not right, he walked over and whispered.

"Princess, what's wrong?"

The road is long, and dead bodies appear from time to time.

The eyes under Luo Yi's mask were cold, and the brows were furrowed.

"It's not right. The woman just said that there are many young and strong people who have taken refuge in neighboring cities, but we have walked along the way, and there are many young corpses on the road."

"Moreover, if a city is in trouble, the city owner will definitely seek help from the surrounding cities, and it is impossible to develop to the present level..."

Yu Yimu also heard the meaning, and his expression became colder and colder.

Luo Yi looked at him sideways, "Don't say anything about it, let's take them back to Yuan City first."

Yu Yimu nodded, and went down to order.

Because they wanted to deceive Luo Yiyi and the others, the carriage carried quite a lot, and now the soldiers brought down those extra boxes, there were so many people that they could sit even if they were crowded...

The next day.

When the group arrived at Yuancheng, the city lord of Yuancheng had already received the news of their disaster relief and was waiting for them at the gate.

He is thin and thin, his eyes are black and blue, his expression is obviously tired, but he still keeps his spirits up.

Luo Yi walked up to him, "Master Cao."

She had done her homework when she came. The owners of Yuancheng are the Cao family, and they hold a very important position in Yuancheng. However, due to the geographical environment, Yuancheng lacks food all the year round. In the past, they traded food with neighboring cities. This is the first time that it has been so serious. .

Moreover, Yuan City is an important border city, so it cannot be abandoned...

Cao Sanyuan glanced at the familiar figures on the carriage behind them, his expression moved slightly, he spoke hastily, and turned his body sideways.

"Princess, please come in."

Cao Sanyuan had already arranged a residence in the City Lord's Mansion.

Along the way, as Luo Yi expected, the entire streets of Yuancheng were deserted.

Noticing Luo Yi's gaze, Cao Sanyuan sighed and said nothing more.

Arriving at the City Lord's Mansion, Luo Yi was surprised that the entire City Lord's Mansion was very empty, not even a decent set of tables and chairs.

She frowned, and looked at Cao Sanyuan.

Cao Sanyuan's expression was indifferent, and he spoke indifferently.

"It's a bit crude, but I hope the princess will not dislike it."

Luo Yi's eyes flickered, but she didn't return.

They walked to the study room in silence. Luo Yi sat on a simple chair with her back lightly leaning against the back of the chair, not daring to use force, but resting her fingers on her knees, tapping slowly and forcefully.

"City Lord Cao, tell me."

Cao Sanyuan understood what she meant, his face was full of anger, and his chest heaved violently.

"Princess, the location of Yuancheng is not good, and there is only Yangcheng nearby. Most of the rice we grow is not satisfactory. For decades, we have been exchanging food with Yangcheng. This is the same rule."

"But some time ago, a new city lord took office in Yangcheng, who suddenly cut off contact with us and stopped providing food."

"I went to negotiate with the new city lord many times, but all failed. The food supply was cut off, and Yuancheng fell into panic."

"There has been no news of the people I sent to other cities. As time went on, food became more and more scarce, and many young men began to seek refuge in Yangcheng..."

Luo Yi had no expression on her face, her eyes were filled with thoughts, dark and deep.

"You have conflicts with the new city lord of Yangcheng?"

Cao Sanyuan shook his head without hesitation.

"No, I've never seen him before."

Luo Yi lowered her eyes and pondered for a while, but did not continue this topic.

"Is Yu Yiyan here?"

Cao Sanyuan shook his head, his voice was a little low, "No..."

Luo Yi pursed her lips, "Alright, let's go down."

"it is good."

Luo Yi patted the center of her eyebrows, and went to Yu Yimu to discuss it.
