The peasant girl who escaped the desert: she cried when she found the cruel prince

Chapter 216 Troubled
"See you!" Jing Li decided without hesitation: "Let him wait for us over there in the wasteland of Xishan Mountain!"

Except for Liu Kui who came to take medicine at the beginning, he was later sent to Chang'an City. It was not time to take medicine yet, so he might have come because the situation in the grassland had changed.

Jingli met Liu Kui in the Xishan wasteland. This area was originally intended to be a pasture. Because of the plague, it is still impossible to go to the grassland to buy horses.

When Liu Kui saw Jing Li and others, he came forward not with a warm hug from Brother Wan, but with a pot of steaming medicinal soup.

"This is..." Liu Kui almost changed his face. How could anyone meet to give him medicine soup? Is Miss Jing trying to tease him again?

Jing Li saw his thoughts and sneered: "Don't worry, I won't harm you. There is a plague in the city. This is to prevent the plague."

"Although you came from the grassland, the epidemic has spread, and I don't know if the grassland across the river has been affected. It's a good thing for you to take precautions first!"

Liu Kui breathed a sigh of relief and drank the medicinal soup in one gulp. Emma, ​​it tastes really bad!

The news on the grassland brought by Liu Kui is not good. The situation in the grassland has changed, which is very likely to endanger the Dafeng Dynasty. The first one to bear the brunt is Lao Beishan.

"The Emperor of Liao is dying? Is this news unreliable?" Jing Li asked with a frown.

Liu Kui sighed: "Of course it is correct. I just came from the imperial city. It was because of the changes in the royal family that I hurriedly came to inform the girl."

"What's the situation now?" Wan Baoquan asked hurriedly, does this still allow people to live?
The Wubao has not yet been built, and the grain has just been planted.

The plague has not ended yet, and war is still raging outside. Now when the Liao people come, what can they do to resist?
"The emperor of the Liao Kingdom is seriously ill, and the veterans in the court strongly support the eldest prince's succession. The queen and the third prince are jumping up and down, trying to stop him!" Liu Kui gave a general introduction to the situation of the Liao royal family.

Jing Li rubbed her eyebrows: "What about the second prince?"

Liu Kui's face looked a little ugly: "This is what I am worried about. The second prince is not involved in the Central Plains, trying to bypass the sight of the other two princes and establish his own power!"

"If the Second Prince gains power, won't you also follow the rising tide? Isn't Shopkeeper Liu's words of worry a bit misleading?"

Liu Kui shook his head: "Young lady, what you said is different. Although I am the second prince's hidden stake in the Central Plains, I still have half of Han blood in my body, and my children are also descended from Han people. It is impossible to completely erase it. .”

"Besides, my status is embarrassing. Even if the second prince gains power, with the Liao nobles' rejection of the Han people, the girl doesn't think I can get any benefits."

Jing Li continued to ask without comment: "Has the second prince started to serve?"

"It's not clear. I think if the second prince wanted to conquer the Central Plains, it must have happened recently. Otherwise, once the old emperor dies, he will be embarrassed and become a thorn in the eyes of others!"

Liu Kui hesitated for a moment and analyzed. After all, he had been out for more than a month, and the situation was changing rapidly. He couldn't tell what the situation in Liao was now.

Jing Li asked the second prince Yelu Mengtu in detail about his troop deployment, etc., and then he made a mental discussion and said to Liu Kui: "Now that the plague is fierce, do you want to go back to Chang'an or what?"

Liu Kui was also a little embarrassed: "To tell you the truth, girl, I've been away from home for a long time, so I want to go back as soon as possible. But now that the situation in the city is unclear, I don't dare to go back rashly."

"Please ask the girl to take you in for a few days. When the situation calms down a bit, I will return home!"

Jing Li nodded: "It doesn't matter if you stay, I have something else I want to entrust to you!"

Liu Kui followed Jin Li back to Beishui Village. Along the way, he was surprised when he saw the layout of the Wubao built on the foundation. It seemed that he was right to come back. Who knows, one day, he would have to rely on this girl to rise to the top.

I don't know why, but Liu Kui feels this way.Liu Kui, who had fantasies, stayed in a luxurious single room-isolation house without exception.

The village has basically restored order now, and most of the people come over to help the Jing family if they have nothing to do.

The four-corner walls of Wubao have been vaguely visible, which frightened the villagers. This is such a big deal!

I'm afraid it wouldn't be a problem to house tens of thousands of people!
But don’t we have to live in tens of thousands of people?Mr. Jing looked at the progress of the construction site every day and seemed to feel a little more at ease.

Anyway, if you have money now, if you want to build something, you have to build the best and biggest one at once.

we!Not short of money!
Previously, I planned to cover the inside first to facilitate the entry and exit of materials, but after being attacked by refugees.

Mr. Jing thought about it and thought it would be better to build the wall first. Otherwise, if he encounters a strong refugee, two wooden fences will not be able to stop him.

Jingli found Huan Yuan who was discussing problems with the masters at the construction site.

It has to be said that a good person is good at anything. Huan Yuan's knowledge about architecture has improved by leaps and bounds recently. Jing Li no longer dares to talk to him, for fear that the old fox will accidentally lose all his old knowledge.

"Young lady, you want to spy on Mo Hubu's attitude?" Huan Yuan immediately understood as soon as Jing Li said this.

"Exactly, Mohubu has a bad reputation on the grassland. If it were someone else, it would completely change his temper. This would be too naive!"

Jing Li laughed at himself: "I don't think I have the ability to win back people's hearts and lay a foundation at once, so I have to go out and find out about the Mohu Department for me, and also do some beatings."

"Don't think that now that the whole Dafeng Dynasty is in civil strife and a plague is coming, I will be at a loss to deal with them!"

Huan Yuan nodded: "The girl's concerns are very reasonable. Prairie people are born as nomads, they live in no fixed places, and they only care about hunting but not eating. If we let them go unchecked, they would think we are afraid of them!"

Jing Li echoed: "Sir, what you said is absolutely correct. By the way, I would like to remind you of the two adults who taught the barbarians in the past."

"Isn't the meat from the grassland so delicious? Let them forget about the polished rice and white noodles from the Central Plains. Since you have a mission, you should not be ashamed of the court's expectations."

"But if they dare to provoke others, then let them consider whether they still want the family members in Chang'an City?"

Huan Yuan stroked his palm and said, "Girl, if you don't spread the Chinese civilization properly after giving them such a good opportunity, you will be ashamed of your family."

After finishing speaking, the two looked at each other and smiled, both understanding what the other said.

So Liu Kui just left the isolation hut and had to return to the grassland again.

"Girl, if that's the case, you might as well have just let me go back to Chang'an!" Liu Kui said with a bitter face.

Jing Li smiled and said: "Don't worry, I have someone to take care of your family in Chang'an. They will be fine. When you come back from this mission, you don't have to come to quarantine and just go back to Chang'an!"

Liu Kui thought to himself, even if you ask me to come again, I won't come.

After sending Huan Yuan and Liu Kui away, Jing Dafu came over with a dejected look on his face: "Ah Li, what should we do if those refugees refuse to leave?"
