Chapter 400

~4 min read 739 words

Unexpectedly!

Qin Mu solved the problem that troubled hundreds of officials in the Great Tang imperial court with just a handful of sand!

The Great Way is simple!

Isn't this the truth?

Problems that seem extremely complex are actually easy to solve.

However, there are very few people who can see through the essence and solve the problem.

Outside the city gate.

A woman in rags held a child who was about to die in her arms.

The mother and daughter looked at the tightly closed door, suffering between hope and despair.

No one knew if this door would open.

That was the only door for their mother and daughter to survive!

"Mother, let's go back! I heard people say that the monarch of Great Qin is cruel and kills people like hemp, I'm afraid..." The little girl lay in the woman's arms, trembling.

Along the way.

The mother and daughter heard many rumors about Great Qin.

In the legend, the violent Qin was chaotic, and the monarch was addicted to killing.

If it weren't for having no way out, no one would want to take the risk to come here.

"Don't be afraid, child! As long as I can give you a bite to eat, even if I die, I am willing."

The woman said gently.

"Mother!"

"Wuwuwu!"

The mother and daughter hugged and cried.

"Rumble!"

The sound of the heavy door opening slowly sounded.

Millions of refugees raised their heads at almost the same time.

Bright light flashed in their desperate eyes.

"The door is open! The door is open!"

"Heaven, we are finally saved!"

"Wuwuwu!"

Various cries intertwined.

The wailing sound stretching for hundreds of miles lingered in the sky, making people's scalps numb when they heard it.

The city gate opened slowly.

General Yue Fei Fei led a group of soldiers out from inside.

"By the order of the Emperor of Great Qin, the locust plague is rampant, the people are living in misery, only heaven has the virtue of loving life, I cannot bear to see millions of people suffer, now I specially open the granary to release grain, to relieve the disaster victims!"

General Yue Fei Fei read Qin Mu's edict loudly, and the loud voice suppressed all the wailing around.

Subsequently.

General Yue Fei Fei followed Qin Mu's order and brought the refugees into Yizhou City in batches.

That mother and daughter were lucky enough to be the first batch of people to enter Yizhou City.

As soon as they came in, they were shocked by the scene before them.

Countless soldiers and people worked together.

Some were cooking, some were moving grain, some were cutting vegetables.

Everyone's eyes were so clear, as if dedicating their strength to this country was an extremely happy thing.

Soldiers and people helping each other?

Such a scene had never been seen in Great Tang!

"Mother, it seems that this place is not the same as what we heard before."

The little girl widened her eyes and looked at everything before her, as if she had come to another world.

"Child, we were deceived by Great Tang! It turns out that Great Qin is the true army of benevolence and righteousness!"

The woman understood everything instantly, and tears of shame flowed down her face.

She regretted it!

Regretted being so suspicious of Great Qin before.

"Child, let's go! From today on, we will not return to Great Tang! We will stay and repay the great kindness of the Emperor of Great Qin!" After speaking, the mother and daughter walked toward the porridge shop.

They were not the only ones with this idea.

Almost all the refugees understood how ridiculous their previous thoughts were after entering Yizhou City.

As people of Great Tang, they were abandoned by the rulers and aristocratic families of Great Tang.

And Great Qin, which was scolded by the world, truly accepted them.

Unknowingly.

There was crying in the crowd.

This crying was full of hatred and regret.

Hatred for those damned rumor-mongers, and regret for listening to those rumors.

Time passed bit by bit.

Batches of refugees entered the city in an orderly manner.

Because a large amount of sand was added to the sweet potato porridge and meat soup, those refugees, even if they were hungry to the extreme, still found it hard to swallow.

They endured the pain of sand rubbing their throats, gritted their teeth, and swallowed the food.
