"I heard the sages say, take pleasure in the present without worrying about the future."
"Today's Crown Prince Li has indeed reached the point where he is drunk now."
"In this case, Mr. Qin will not disturb Crown Prince Li's elegance. I just hope that the next time we meet, Crown Prince Li will still be so refined!"
After a long silence, Qin Chenggu took a deep look at Li Danqing, gritted his teeth and whispered, then turned around and rode away with his army and the unconscious Ying Li.
Yang Tong, who was standing next to him, glanced at Li Danqing with a complicated expression before leaving. He hesitated to speak, but still didn't say much and left with Qin Chenggu.
…
The fifth day of the Yangshan collapse.
The ruins of Gale City were finally cleared, and the bodies buried under the ruins were taken out one after another and placed in a square in Gale City, waiting for their families to come and claim them.
But there are very few people who can survive under these ruins.
In fact, according to the low temperature at night, the people buried under the ruins had almost no life since the third day. Some people also raised this point and asked Li Danqing to spare some manpower to hunt prey in the forest.
Collecting herbal medicine. I don’t know if it was Qin Chenggu’s deliberate arrangement, or because Yingshui County did not have many materials that could be prepared.
The relief materials allocated from the imperial court were extremely scarce. The rice grains were mixed with rice bran, and half of the medicinal materials were moldy, so very few were usable.
Therefore, various materials in Gale City are extremely scarce today, and it is for this reason that someone would come up with such an idea. After all, whether it is food, medicine, or houses needed to keep out the cold, a lot of manpower is needed, and the resources of Gale City cannot be reduced.
The main young and strong forces are devoted to the meaningless work of rescuing very few survivors.
"What if there are still people alive?"
"A person is trapped under the dark ruins, with no food, only cold wind and loneliness. He can only hold these things and die slowly..."
"Can you imagine such a day? If you were crushed down there, would you think that there would be someone who could throw away the rubble and rescue you?"
"I want to save him. Even if there is only a little hope, I will save him."
Li Danqing used these words to defy all opinions and still chose to put the main force of young men into the work of rescuing possible survivors until the ruins were finally cleared.
But unfortunately, the figures that were carried out one after another from the ruins have long been beyond recognition. This is something that can be expected. The weather in Yingshui County, which has lost the spiritual power of Yangshan, has suddenly become cold, and ordinary women and children cannot survive without warm clothes.
After surviving those long cold nights, not to mention the injured who were trapped under the rubble and had no food.
Li Danqing stood in front of the ruins with a stern expression, looking at the corpses being carried out one by one, his face seemed to be covered with a layer of frost.
"Young Master, my condolences are with you." Qingzhu walked to Li Danqing's side and spoke softly.
She knows Li Danqing better than anyone else and knows that this guy is just a fool on the surface.
Lang seems to be unobtrusive, but secretly he is kinder than anyone else, especially to those he considers to be his own people.
Logically speaking, although he is the city lord of Dafeng City in name, in fact most of the jurisdiction of Dafeng City is in the hands of Zhang Qian and Qin Chenggu, but he will still find a way to prepare food for the people in winter.
, and even before going to Dongqingyuan to compete, the incident of guarding and stealing occurred in Dafengyuan.
Li Danqing told the outside world that he took the money and lost it to a local gambling house, but Qingzhu knew that he had given the money to Lu Houguo, and asked the old man to help take care of a group of displaced beggars from the Windy City.
On the night when he went to the Gate of Star Glory, Li Danqing also received a letter from Lu Houguo, saying that the beggars had been sent to Qingyun Army to work as cooks. If they performed better and grew older, they would be sent to the Qingyun Army.
Even though he could be enlisted in the military, he could still make a decent living.
No one else knows about these things, and Li Danqing never likes to mention them to others. Only close confidants like Qingzhu and Lu Houguo, who has dealt with this matter, know something about it.
"There is nothing to be sad about. Just do your best and have a clear conscience." After hearing this, Li Danqing came back to his senses, turned to look at Qingzhu, and grinned at Qingzhu.
His appearance seemed to have returned to his usual careless and careless appearance.
"Let someone come and claim these corpses. After seeing them for the last time, they will be cremated together. This must be done before tonight's evening. We already lack medicine and food. If the plague breeds again, it will be a big trouble." Li Danqing said deeply.
After taking a deep look at the corpses being carried out, he turned around and walked away.
Qingzhu nodded and quickly gave Li Danqing's request.
Fortunately, Li Danqing has been living and eating with the victims these days. The people of Dafeng City are also grateful to Li Danqing. Although this kind of treatment is somewhat difficult for some people to accept, there is not much opposition in the end.
After giving these instructions, Qingzhu quickly caught up with Li Danqing: "What are you going to do now, young master?"
Hearing this, Li Danqing glanced at Qingzhu and asked strangely: "I'm going to take a nap. I haven't slept well in the past few days. I'd like to catch up on it now. Do you want to come with Xiao Qingzhu? I asked Old Man Lu
I asked for a bed, it’s big and soft, just suitable for two people to lie down and sleep on?”
Qingzhu thought that Li Danqing had always had a straight face since experiencing the Yangshan Incident. At this moment, she finally had the idea of teasing. She rarely refuted, but asked: "It's so cold and sweet. How cold is it for two people to sleep together?"
Why don't I call Yan Zhen up again?"
Li Danqing's eyes lit up, and he seemed to have seen the future of being blessed by sleeping together: "Xiao Qingzhu is very enlightened, but the bed for three people is a bit small, but it doesn't matter, we can sleep together, you see
, you sleep on the right side, and Yanzhen sleeps on the left side. Since ancient times, we have respected the right side, so Xiao Qingzhu has realized that you can take your seat in the main room. Don’t worry, my eldest son..."
Seeing Li Danqing talking non-stop, Qingzhu couldn't help but roll his eyes, thinking that his young master was really the kind of guy who would look brilliant if given some color.
But deep down, I feel more relieved, and I can still speak glibly.
At least it shows that Li Danqing's mentality has recovered a lot, and he has not been completely dazzled by the death of Zhao Quan and others.
But in line with the principle of not letting Li Danqing get too complacent, Qingzhu asked a question that hit Li Danqing's soul at the next moment: "How many houses will our Xiao Xian Yin, who plans to give birth to a hundred children to the young master, have?
?”
This question made Li Danqing's smile pause, and he hesitated for a while not knowing how to answer.
Qingzhu secretly found it funny to see Li Danqing's embarrassment, but she had no intention of letting Li Danqing go like this. She narrowed her eyes and stared at Li Danqing, just as she was about to urge him to answer the question.
"You are going too far!"
At this moment, Luo Anan's voice suddenly came from the direction of the city gate not far away.
The two of them were stunned for a moment, and the conversation they had just had ended in vain. They both looked there, only to see Luo Anan leading a group of young men, surrounding a group of soldiers in black armor, asking loudly.
Luo Anan opened the sack on the carriage in front of him with a sword, pointed at the bag of rice bran mixed with a negligible amount of rice grain, and asked loudly: "In the past, a bag of rice was mixed with half a bag of rice bran.
Are the total of these rice bags today one more bag of rice grains?"
"Is this food for people to eat?"
The soldiers who were responsible for escorting rice grains seemed calm and composed when faced with Luo Anan's questioning: "We are just responsible for delivering grains. If the girl is dissatisfied, go to the officials to make trouble! What are you trying to do to embarrass us errand runners?"
ability?"
"I guess this girl thought she was a disciple of the Holy Mountain, right? Little did she know that Yangshan collapsed and several other major colleges had already fallen apart and were leaderless. I think these major colleges are almost at the point of disbandment. I don't know that by then, this
Do you think you are still in the mood to yell in front of us?" The companion next to him also took over the conversation and said sadly.
Luo Anan was not a person who was good at talking. Hearing these words, his face turned red with anger, but he didn't know how to refute.
"It seems like I won't be able to sleep now." Seeing this, Li Danqing shrugged his shoulders towards Qingzhu on the side and said with regret and helplessness.
Seeing that Li Danqing was still thinking about this green bamboo, he couldn't help but give Li Danqing another look and said angrily: "Young Master, can't you think of something serious? You also know that the Ying family and Qin Chenggu will collapse this Yangshan Mountain.
The blame has been placed on our Dafeng Court, and the top priority is to find a way to survive this disaster!"
"If you can't get through it, it's useless no matter how much you think about it!"
Facing Qingzhu's accusation, Li Danqing's expression remained as usual. He blinked and asked, "Then if you get over it, it will be useful if you think about it?"
Qingzhu was stunned and heard what Li Danqing was saying. She stamped her feet, a little annoyed: "After this, I will sleep with the young master every day! Okay?"
"Okay!" Prince Li nodded with satisfaction, then turned to look at the soldier at the gate of the city, the smile on his face instantly faded.
"But, before I meet Lord Yama again..."
"We have to deal with these difficult brats first."
