Chapter 278 Another refugee breaks in
Li Huai also knew that he couldn't persuade Gu Yong now, so he left.
Li Hui went to Yun Che's yard again, and saw him sitting alone in the yard drinking tea, so he walked over with a smile.
"General Yun, Gu Yong is now locked up. Do I still need to do anything?" Li Huai asked with a smile.
“Not for now.” Yun Che glanced at Li Hui while speaking.
Li Huai also knew that he shouldn't disturb Yun Che at this time, so he left obediently.
But not long after Li Hui left.
Yun Si came in front of Yun Che and took out a letter.
“Master, our people received news that someone came from the capital. It seems that they couldn’t wait any longer, so they sent this thing.” Yun Si handed the letter in his hand to Yun Che.
After Yun Che opened the letter, he couldn’t help but sneer.
It seems that Prince Huan can no longer hold back and wants to rebel so soon.
Originally, Yun Che had no evidence, but now that everything was delivered to him, it was time for Prince Huan to put his little tricks in check.
“Where is that person?” Yun Che asked.
"It was seized by our people and is currently being transported. I specially sent the letter to you first." Yuns answered respectfully.
"Okay, when that person arrives here, bring him to me immediately."
"Yes, Master!"
Yun Si left the place in the next moment. Yun Che held the letter in his hand with deep eyes.
do not know why?
He always felt a palpitation.
It seems like something big is about to happen.
Yun Che slowly closed his eyes. Washing dishes was not what he had imagined.
……
In the capital city.
Song Wanning had just come out of the house, but she didn't expect that there was a riot on the street. Many people were looting things here, and they were all refugees. They seemed to have come from far away places, and many of them came at once.
They were starving because they hadn't eaten for a long time.
So when he saw some people setting up stalls, he walked up without saying a word and stuffed all the food into his mouth.
The vendors were also frightened and originally wanted to stop them, but they glared at them fiercely and no one dared to act rashly until people from the Dali Temple came and detained some refugees. But this was not enough because many people also ran away and could not be caught.
Li Yang also noticed Song Wanning and walked over calmly, but still frowned unconsciously.
"It seems that there is another war." Song Wanning sighed and said silently.
That's not wrong.
Because as long as there is a war, it is always these people who get hurt.
But we had just ended the war with the barbarians, how could it happen so suddenly?
Song Wanning frowned, it seemed that she had to ask those refugees.
This matter soon reached the ears of the emperor, who was furious and scolded those officials for being useless. They didn't even know that a war had broken out outside. If someone took advantage of the situation and entered the capital, who knows how many people would be injured.
The emperor immediately sent people to investigate, and he must find out who was causing the chaos.
Song Wanning followed Li Yang to the Dali Temple. The refugees knelt on the ground with a look of disobedience on their faces.
"You officials are enjoying your life here, but have you ever thought about how hard it is for us common people? No one cares about the war. We finally came to the capital just to have a good meal, but you arrested us!"
"Do you know what's going on outside? Those barbarians are completely unreasonable. All our villages have been destroyed and even the food has been taken away. Many people had to run away to save their lives, but some people didn't want to leave and were killed by the barbarians!"
"Why don't you send troops out? Why do you leave us civilians alone?"
"..."
The refugees here were very emotional, especially in their attitude towards Li Yang. They looked so ferocious, as if they wanted to kill him.
"There is no news of war in the capital." Li Yang said silently.
Song Wanning also found it strange.
Since there is a war and the barbarians have begun to take action again, the capital should be able to get the news soon.
But if it weren’t for these refugees today, they probably wouldn’t have any news at all.
Put it this way.
Someone was deliberately guiding them so that no one would notice the invasion of the barbarians.
If they were allowed to come to the capital quietly, even the emperor would be in danger.
The first person Song Wanning thought of was Prince Huan.
He kept private soldiers and joined forces with the barbarians, which means he had known about this all along.
Say nothing.
It seems that he is planning to wait for the barbarians to enter the capital and reunite with those private soldiers, so that he can kill everyone without leaving a single survivor. This is King Huan's purpose.
No wonder they sent someone to Jiangcheng to deliver the letter so quickly.
However, Jiangcheng is still quite far from the capital, even if we rush there at full speed.
The round trip will take a month.
It would probably take about the same amount of time for the barbarians to come to the capital.
It would be great if Yun Che was here. He could directly mobilize the Yun family army and maybe stop the barbarians halfway.
"Everyone calm down. We don't want to arrest you, but your behavior has caused inconvenience to everyone. Many people have been frightened. We can only take this action and detain you in the Dali Temple."
"But there are shelters for refugees in the capital. We will send you there. Don't steal food here anymore, okay?"
Song Wanning stared at them and knew that these people had no ill intentions, they were just too hungry.
Moreover, everyone was dressed in rags, and no one knew what had happened to them along the way.
When they heard what Song Wanning said, they looked at each other and finally chose to nod.
After all, they don't want to cause trouble or go to jail.
I thought that once the Dali Temple arrested them, they would never be released.
That's why my attitude just now was so bad.
"You two, take them all back. If you encounter any refugees on the way, send them to the slums as well."
"Yes, my lord!"
Li Yang ordered two people to send them over and couldn't help but sigh.
"It looks like there will be another war. It's really too much to keep such a thing secret! It will cause so many people to be displaced and will lead to a war!" Li Yang slammed his fist on the table angrily, his eyes revealing a chill.
Suddenly he remembered that Song Wanning was beside him, and he was afraid that his actions just now had scared her.
"Sorry, Miss Song, I'm just a little angry..."
Only when they were alone did Li Yang call Song Wanning like this.
"It's okay, sir. I'm afraid all these things were done by that one person."
"Miss Song, do you mean the one from Hongxiufang?"
