After Liu Rushi cried for a while, she finally calmed down. Looking at the two disappearing people, Lin Yuchen's eyes were filled with inquiry.
Lin Yuchen didn't say much, just introduced himself, and then told her in a gentle voice that she didn't have to worry about that man threatening her in the future.
Liu Rushi has encountered several crises in succession during this period. No matter how naive he is, he still knows something.
After thinking about that person's ending, his face turned pale and his body began to shake uncontrollably.
Lin Yuchen didn't want her to react so much, fearing that she would be too scared and delay their journey, so he continued to explain to her the results of the cross-examination.
Maybe his voice was too gentle, or maybe they had just rescued her, Liu Rushi's mood calmed down a little, and she seemed okay.
When Xiao Ke came back and saw that she was feeling better, he asked her if she should continue to rest or hurry on her way.
Liu Rushi felt that she would feel suffocated if she stayed here for a moment longer, so she said she wanted to leave.
After the three of them gathered together, they started on their way. However, their trip was not to refugees, but to Tongming County.
According to what Liu Rushi and Xiao Ke asked, many of the refugees had begun to fight with each other, just like bandits.
The danger is greater among the refugees. Besides, there is a woman here with them, which is inconvenient, and they cannot just ignore it.
This place is nearly fifty miles away from Tongming County. With Tongming County's defensive strength, it is difficult to find this place.
Xiao Ke and Lin Yuchen discussed and decided to send Liu Rushi back to the county first. If she was really the daughter of Magistrate Tongming, they might as well try to use Liu Qingyun's help to spread the news of Lu Qian's collaboration with the enemy back to Kyoto.
Because there was an extra woman, Lin Yucheng and Xiao Ke's footsteps slowed down. Although Liu Rushi had never walked a long distance, she still managed to keep up with them.
At this moment, in the backyard of the Tongming County Government Office, the county magistrate Liu Qingyun sent people to investigate the recent disappearance of a young woman, and at the same time he was furious with the guards. "What do you do for food! If Miss and Qingmei can't stand it, what's the use of raising you!"
"Your Excellency, we are on duty as usual. Who knows when the young lady ran out." The guard also felt strange. He had heard the young lady playing the piano one moment, but disappeared the next moment.
"What are you still doing? Go look for it again!" As soon as Liu Qingyun finished speaking, the guards rushed out again and began to expand the search area.
Liu Lanshi was wiping tears at the side, blaming herself endlessly in her heart. "If only, if I had looked at her then, my son——"
Liu Qingyun also felt bad. The friendship between him and Liu Lan's young couple was not comparable to that of ordinary couples.
We have been married for sixteen years, but we have this daughter, who has been pampered like a jewel since she was a child. If something unexpected happens...
He couldn't imagine what would happen to Liu Lan who had always been weak...
It's just that Liu Rushi was not the only one who disappeared on Qixi Festival. There were also several people who came to report the case. He was not only a father, but also the parent officer of Tongming County.
This case involved several families and had a bad impact, putting families with young girls in the entire county at risk. Suddenly, the usually bustling county town became surprisingly deserted.
Halfway to Tongming County, what Xiao Ke and Lin Yuchen were worried about happened.
Feng Lan's iron hoof broke through the pass that Tianqi had always been proud of, tearing apart the illusion of peaceful coexistence between the two countries in the past century.
This time the attack was fierce, and Lu Qianli cooperated with others. Soon, Feng Lan occupied Canglang.
Lin Yucheng had mixed feelings as he watched the smoke ignited in the place where he grew up and Feng Lan's war flag was planted. He looked at Xiao Ke with a bitter look on his face.
Liu Rushi didn't know what happened yet, she only heard some sounds. Seeing that the two of them looked unhappy, he bravely asked, "Brother Ke, Doctor Lin, what happened?"
Xiao Ke was still wanted at this time, and they were dubious about Liu Rushi, so Xiao Ke called himself Ke Mingxiao. Lin Yucheng was his cousin, and the two went to Fucheng to seek refuge with relatives.
"That's the direction of Canglang County. The smoke coming out right now means there's a war." Xiao Ke didn't want to say more, so he just mentioned it briefly.
Liu Rushi was frightened and began to panic. When the war broke out, public security was in chaos, and the original political power was threatened. She couldn't care about the safety of the people. What she cared more about was whether Xiao Ke and Xiao Ke could still treat her with the same attitude as before.
"Miss Liu, the situation is critical now. We have to speed up, otherwise we will be caught by Feng Lan's people and our lives will be in danger." Xiao Ke frowned and estimated the itinerary.
Seeing that they were still willing to take her, Liu Rushi breathed a sigh of relief and said hurriedly: "I understand, it's important, thank you both for your hard work. I will try my best to keep up with you two."
She said this, but she had no idea in her heart. She had been traveling very hard for the past two days. She had a lot of blisters on her feet. When they were worn out, they stuck to her shoes and socks. Every step she took made her feel pain. .
Although Xiao Ke said that, he actually never thought that Liu Rushi, a weak woman, could keep up with them. If she could really keep up, they would actually doubt her identity.
He was just giving Liu Rushi a warning, asking her to be mentally prepared. It was not a good thing to be tired when traveling.
The three of them traveled day and night and finally arrived at Tongming County. At this time, Feng Lan's army had captured other surrounding cities, which were only a hundred miles away.
After sending Liu Rushi back to the county government office, the two brothers finally met Liu Qingyun, who was busy taking precautions.
"You two heroes, please accept my bow." Liu Qingyun said and was about to salute.
"No, sir! It is normal for human beings to draw their swords to help when the road is rough. Sir Kuang is concerned about civil affairs and has good governance. Even though we are in other places, we have heard about it." Lin Yucheng paused and continued: "It's just that my second brother When I came back from seeing your beloved, I found smoke rising from the direction of Canglang County. I am afraid there will be a war, so please make preparations in advance."
"I have sent the news to the capital, but I don't know the specific situation. If Feng Lan takes over Canglang, with Tongming's defense power, I'm afraid it won't be able to resist for more than two days. What should I do..." Liu Qingyun did not expect that it would be short. Within a few days, crises arose.
Xiao Ke thought about what he overheard in the army and felt a little hesitant...
