"lady."

Qin Wenyuan called out from far away.

The next second, as expected, the figure he was interested in ran over.

Compared to the slowness of others, the owner of this figure seemed a little eager.

"Husband!"

As soon as he came to Qin Wenyuan's side, Changle jumped up, looking like he was going forward indomitably.

In other words, if Qin Wenyuan missed the mark, Changle would have fallen down. He would have been disfigured after jumping over such a distance.

This frightened Qin Wenyuan so much that he quickly opened his hands and hugged his wife's petite body.

"Husband, you are okay, great, great..."

Changle hugged Qin Wenyuan and took a breath of his breath, feeling somewhat satisfied.

Qin Wenyuan no longer had a good temper at this time. He felt that Changle was too chaotic.

Therefore, he knocked Chang Le's little head and said angrily: "Madam, what were you doing just now? If you weren't paying attention, I wouldn't be able to catch you."

"You...you want me to go to dinner early?"

Hearing this, Chang Le stuck out his tongue in a rare and playful manner, "This... Isn't this my husband you? With you here, how can I be harmed?"

"You bastard husband, why did you knock me out and then let Brother Weiyang take me away secretly?"

"We clearly agreed to live and die together, but you have violated your oath and must be punished!!"

Forehead……

Chang Le's words immediately made Qin Wenyuan's tone pause.

Myself...there is no way to refute this!

The scene between Qin Wenyuan and his wife made everyone burst into laughter.

Xiao Sizi also looked at the two of them with great envy.

It’s just that envy is envy.

She knew that this was the reward of Changle's original decision.

If it had been her, and she had been asked to make up her mind to live like this with ordinary people, Xiao Sizi felt that she really couldn't make up her mind.

For no other reason than because she had lived a life of fine clothing and fine food for a long time, she simply couldn't bear the sudden drop in her living standards.

Therefore, while being envious, Xiao Sizi also somewhat admires his sister Changle.

I admire her for daring to abandon everything!

Dare to start living with Qin Wenyuan from scratch!!

On this night, just like this, the group of people walked together, talking and laughing.

Originally, Wei Zheng wanted to tell Qin Wenyuan quickly about the matter of Five Surnames and Qi Wang, but because of the atmosphere tonight, he had to postpone it.

Just have fun tonight.

…………

Vertical sun.

Just this morning, an urgent notice was delivered to Chang'an City and reached the hands of almost all the officials in the court.

After receiving the news, all the important officials in the court sat up in shock and horror. With a look of horror in their eyes, they read the letters they had just received, one by one, one by one.

"this!!!"

Li Jing gasped and looked horrified. He hurriedly bid farewell to his wife Hongfu Nu, left the mansion, mounted his horse at the door, and rushed to the south gate of Chang'an as quickly as possible.

He ran so fast in the city that the people all over the street felt the strong wind blowing in their ears.

What's more, I didn't even know what happened, I just heard a gust of wind passing by.

In just two quarters of an hour, Li Jing arrived at the north gate of Chang'an City. From a distance, he saw an extremely familiar figure above the south gate. He was one step faster than him and had already arrived there.

"Is the news in the letter true? Is it true that hundreds of thousands of refugees are about to arrive in Chang'an City?"

As soon as they entered the south gate, before anyone arrived, Li Jing's voice came from afar.

There was an inexplicable sense of horror in the voice, and he came to Qin Shubao's side in an instant.

Qin Shubao snorted and said in a deep voice: "General Li, I'm afraid the situation is worse than we imagined. We have just received the news, but the fleeing team from the north has already appeared not far from Chang'an."

"Do you know what this means?"

Li Jing frowned slightly. The matter in this morning's letter was a major national event.

There is no reason for the scouts to be so slow in conveying the message to Chang'an.

There is only one reason for the slowness.

That was the homing pigeons that carried messages before, all of which were intercepted!!

Li Jing said coldly: "Is there an unknown force controlling all of this?"

Qin Shubao nodded, "Yes, the southern scout told me just now. He was the twelfth batch of scouts who rushed to Chang'an City. It was him who also let us know about the huge disaster in the south."

"The twelfth batch of scouts sent out brought the news to us..."

"This also shows that all the eleven scouts in front are dead! The power hidden by this unknown force is not trivial."

Qin Shubao's voice was very low, with a depressing atmosphere, and then he pointed his finger to the line between the sea and the sky outside the city.

There, in a dark and dusty scene, there were densely packed convoys of horses, as if they were boundless, with no end in sight.

On both sides of the team, there were a large number of Tang Army soldiers, and countless soldiers guarded the edges.

In the sky above the team, crows and birds were also circling and flying, as if there was a great terror behind them.

At the front of the team, there are generals from all over the country!

The mighty team, with its incomparable majestic momentum, people who didn't know better thought it was a team attacking Chang'an City.

but……

As the distant team continued to approach, both Qin Shubao and Li Jing could clearly see it.

This team was in such a mess. The soldiers of the Tang army had abandoned their helmets and armor, their mouths were dry, and their steps were stumbling. The ordinary civilians, even with their families and families, looked tired and malnourished.

Often a large group of people are crowded on a carriage, and even more people are crowded on the roof of the carriage.

Vaguely, with their extraordinary ears, they could even hear the clear and constant crying sound in the distance, and the deep sadness filled the air.

Qin Shubao and Li Jing's expressions instantly turned ugly.

"In the southern territory, more than a dozen cities suffered from locust plagues, which lasted for up to half a month. All the food stored and the food still being planted were eaten away."

"In the past half a month, on their way to Chang'an, more than 200,000 people have starved to death, and more than 10,000 soldiers have starved to death. Even... even General Li Zizai, who was guarding one side, died because of

Sharing the joys and sorrows with the people and giving your own food to your children is also..."

"Starving to death..."

Qin Shubao's voice became heavier and hoarse, with a hint of suppressed solemnity.

Hearing this,

Suddenly, Li Jing felt a lump in his heart. The bloody figures showed that hundreds of thousands of people were dead.

"These hateful locusts."

Li Jing gritted his teeth with hatred, and his eyes almost burst into flames.

But he also knew that in the face of the general situation, when there was no food, not to mention the common people, even high-ranking generals like them would die!

Locusts are a natural disaster and cannot be defended against.

Therefore, what Li Jing hates the most is the mastermind behind all this.

Hundreds of thousands of people starved to death, and only when they were in front of their eyes did they know that millions of refugees were coming.

How many of the scouts who came to report were killed by the person behind the scenes!!

Even Li Jing felt that the locust plague in the south was not caused by God, but by hidden forces.

While Qin Shubao and Li Jing were talking, in the distance in front of the team, a horseback riding figure suddenly accelerated and broke away from the team in an instant.

Moving in their direction, the speed was extremely fast. In just a few dozen breaths, he crossed a distance of several hundred meters and appeared in front of Qin Shubao and Li Jing.

The visitor was wearing black armor, made of special materials, but it was in tatters at the moment.

There was still some scorch on his face, obviously from being sunburned, and his lips were also chapped. The overall appearance was very embarrassing.

There was a hint of exhaustion in his eyes.

Seeing the two of them, the other person's voice was so excited that he couldn't contain himself and said, "Li...General Li, General Qin, I...I, I, I, we finally see you!!"

After saying that, a general who was guarding one side actually cried in front of the two of them, his voice was sad and painful, full of endless pain and despair.

The two looked at each other and saw the horror in each other's eyes.
