Chapter 139 Identity
"That's because the previous disaster relief teams were just playing around. The government collected the money and set up a porridge shed for us for three days, and there was no follow-up."

"Yes! They only focus on swallowing up the disaster money, concealing the truth and placating the people with lies. In fact, the government has done nothing. Even if the emperor knows that there is a drought in Yuzhou, I'm afraid he doesn't know the details!"

When Zuo Qiuyao heard these complaints, he understood.

Indeed, if Zhong Lihai knew from the beginning that the truth was more serious than he imagined, how could he be so calm?Even she didn't know until she heard some words from the people in the palace.This Yuzhou is in a remote area, so it is extremely difficult to spread the word once.

So it's hard to imagine how the previous mother and son arrived in the capital unharmed.

Looking at the faces of the crowd, Zuo Qiuyao said calmly: "It is more dangerous to go out of the city. Now that you travel on foot, it will increase the troubles of other towns and bring more burdens to the imperial court for disaster relief. In two days it will be There is a team coming from Beijing, so...you should return to the city quickly, and in the future, there will be a national teacher to relieve your worries."

Hearing this, everyone immediately started preparing to return to the city.

After drinking water, there is still hunger to be solved.

A group of people didn't have much strength, but fortunately, each of their water bags was filled with water and they could go back to the city to help those in need.

The gate of Yuzhou City is wide, and it looks quite imposing at first glance.

Zuo Qiuyao led them back to the city.

But he didn't expect to be blocked outside the city.

The guards at the gates of the two teams stopped them directly, and then one of them stuck a large white paper on the city wall, and then said loudly: "Today, the city lord ordered that anyone who leaves Yuzhou City will be treated as a mob. Do not return to the city. You people have already been stripped of your status as citizens of Yuzhou City, since you have already left the city, don’t come back.”

Hearing these words, the expressions of a dozen people instantly became desperate: "My lord, we didn't cause trouble, and we didn't commit violence. What is a mob?"

"Yeah! We just went out to find some water sources. You are completely lawless and forced to drive us away and let us die!"

The leading guard looked at them disdainfully: "Oh, you are not afraid of death and want to leave? Are you still afraid of death? It is you who are such a mess, wandering around and spreading rumors, which has caused us, Mr. Zhou, to be criticized by the court." In a while, the Imperial Master will come to Yuzhou. If I still see refugees like you everywhere, wouldn’t it mean that we, Master Zhou, are not managing properly? Huh, after you, no one will dare to leave the city. You guys , and are not allowed to enter the city again.”

Zuo Qiuyao, who took the lead, looked at the guards in front of him.

They are all in good spirits.

It seems that the resources provided by the government are much better than those provided by the common people.

However, going out of the city is a helpless move, and it is also human nature.

If it weren't for the hardships in the city, who would leave their hometown?
"Dear officials, since you said that the Imperial Master is coming to Yuzhou, and also said that the people are wandering outside, it will have a negative impact on the drought. If we are not allowed to enter the city now, is it possible that we will not be afraid of being attacked by the Imperial Master? My lord found that refugees wandering outside Yuzhou city, wouldn't it be even more punishing to your lord Zhou?" Zuo Qiuyao raised his eyebrows slightly and said.

Hearing this, the guards had complicated expressions.

But the guard who took the lead seemed to hesitate a few times, then looked Zuoqiu Key up and down with a sneer and said, "Hmph, where are you from? It doesn't look like I'm from Yuzhou City. You have a sharp tongue, you think you can rely on I will let you go with these few words of yours? There will be no exceptions after our official announcement has been issued. I am afraid that you will die outside Yuzhou City before the Master of the State Teacher comes.

Even if you don't die suddenly, you can survive.At that time, we will tell the master of the state that you are the troublemakers who maliciously incited the riots, so as not to be released into the city and affect the stability of the people in the city.Do you think Master Guoshi will still make decisions for you? "

Hearing the righteous slander from the head of the guard made the dozen or so refugees behind Zuo Qiuyao extremely angry.

"How is this possible? We had no choice but to leave the city. Do you really want to watch a dozen of us die outside like this? This is murder."

"That's right, Master Guoshi won't tolerate you doing such evil!"

It's just that the protest of a dozen people was useless.

All the guards stood in front of them as motionless as a mountain.

Looking at this scene, Zuo Qiuyao suddenly burst into laughter: "Didn't you just ask me where I came from? I forgot to introduce, I'm from the capital."

Beijing?

The chief guard looked at Zuo Qiuyao with a look of surprise.

But Zuo Qiuyao continued to speak casually: "What do you think is the purpose of coming to Yuzhou from the capital at this time?"

The guard looked up and down Zuo Qiu Yao again.

Looking at the woman's calm appearance, there was no trace of panic from beginning to end.And he has an extraordinary bearing, which makes him look like he is not an ordinary citizen at first glance.

Immediately, the attitude eased a lot: "You... what do you mean?"

"I don't mean anything, I just want to tell you that during the period when Master Guoshi personally came to Yuzhou to relieve the disaster, you'd better not make any messy actions. If the matter breaks out, for your Lord Zhou, it is only There are disadvantages but no advantages." Zuo Qiuyao's understatement really made the head guard in front of him uncertain.

From Beijing.

at this time……

It is really not appropriate to cause troubles.

So after a few moments of hesitation, he waved his hand and said, "Then you go into the city! But I'm telling you, it's better to be quiet after entering the city. Those who want to go out during this time are all mobs."

Hearing this, the dozen or so people behind Zuo Qiu Yao all breathed a sigh of relief.

They didn't expect Zuoqiu Yao to be from the capital?
No wonder, she knew the news that Master Guoshi was coming to Yuzhou City so quickly.

The Ice Deer Beast in the dark watched this scene, and couldn't help sighing to Zuo Qiuyao: "You humans are really complicated and hard to figure out. Just now you disagreed with everything you said, but now you are afraid of your identity in the capital and gave in. "

Zuo Qiuyao just curled his lips and said nothing.

He directly led a dozen refugees into Yuzhou City openly and aboveboard.

The Ice Deer Beast gracefully followed Zuo Qiuyao, it was hidden in the air, and no one could see this holy beast.

If they had known that they were always accompanied by a spiritual beast that they had only heard of in legends, they would have been frightened to death.

Although the guards at the city gate were unwilling to do so, they could only watch Zuo Qiuyao and others enter the city.
