The legitimate daughter becomes cannon fodder? Rebirth to overthrow the system's fatality

In a flash, someone in the crowd drew a dagger and rushed forward.

"If you don't let us live, you won't live either!"

"Take your life!"

There were at least seven or eight people in this group, all of them were eight feet tall, had sharp eyes, and were agile. They did not look like disaster victims at all.

The Shanlan men who were protecting the surroundings reacted quickly and flew over to fight with him.

But those people were very cunning. When they saw they were no match for their opponent, they immediately retreated back into the crowd.

Chi Zhang coldly warned the guards: "Don't hurt the civilians!"

At this moment, a cry of grief suddenly broke out from the people: "Child! My child!"

Then someone shouted, "Murder! The Fifth Prince's men killed someone!"

For a while the people were pushing and shoving each other, and some people shouted, "Fight them!"

"Stop! Stop it now!" Seeing that the people were being instigated again, Zhuang Yumian shouted anxiously.

But facing the anxious people, his words were of no use at this time.

A group of people rushed straight towards Chu Heng, among them were some people with ulterior motives.

At this time, a green figure moved.

Everyone only felt a shadow passing by, and soon several screams were heard from the crowd.

Looking again, a dozen big men fell to the ground and screamed.

Cheng Jiuyuan stood in front of Chu Heng and looked at the people who were watching.

"Don't let anyone take advantage of you. Your Highness the Fifth Prince has been unable to eat or sleep these past few days, so he came up with this plan to help with the disaster."

As soon as Cheng Jiuyuan finished speaking, the man lying on the ground shouted, "What kind of disaster relief plan is this! Even the disaster relief food has been robbed, what else can we use to save the people!"

"that is!"

Cheng Jiuyuan's originally gentle gaze suddenly turned colder.

"How do you know such a confidential matter?"

The man who just shouted this avoided looking at me.

Chi Zhang and his men captured the men who were lying on the ground and wailing, and separated them from the common people.

In the middle, a woman was crying with a child in her arms.

"Child! My child!"

"You killed my child! Give me back my child's life!" the woman shouted at Chi Zhang and others.

"It wasn't us. We were afraid of hurting the people, so we didn't use swords. This child was obviously injured by a sword."

After saying that, Chi Zhang turned around and kicked the captured man several times.

"Say! Who sent you here!"

"Wow, woo, woo, my son, how can I live if you're gone!" The woman cried until she almost died while holding the weak child.

The people around watched helplessly.

In the chaos just now, the child didn't know how he was stabbed.

But the Fifth Prince's men were indeed unarmed.

No matter how stupid they were, they realized at this moment that the group of people who were arrested must have deliberately provoked their anger.

Seeing the guards around them draw their swords, the people dared not move anymore.

For a moment, all that could be heard was the woman weeping.

Chu Heng looked at the woman standing in front of him. Her eyes and eyebrows were cold, and even her back was chilly, but it made him feel warm in his heart.

For so many years, no one has stood in front of him except his guards.

Cheng Jiuyuan looked at Chu Heng and Zhuang Yumian from the side and said, "I'll leave this place to you for now."

After saying this, she walked towards the woman who was crying bitterly.

"Auntie, let me see the child."

The woman raised her eyes and stopped crying temporarily.

"Girl, it's you!"

This lady was the one who gave her half a steamed bun on the way to Loudong.

Cheng Jiuyuan nodded: "It's me, I know some medical skills, let me take a look."

"You know medical skills?! That's great, that's great!" The woman grabbed Cheng Jiuyuan's hand tightly like a drowning person grabbing a piece of driftwood.

"Auntie, I can't watch when you hold me like this."

"Oh, okay, look, look..." The woman immediately let go of her hand, her eyes filled with hope.

Cheng Jiuyuan checked and found that the wound was in the abdomen, and he immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

"There is still hope."

She leaned over and picked up the child, saying to the woman, "Come with me."

After saying this, he walked towards the government office, and the woman hurriedly stumbled after him.

"Miss, you saved us twice..." The woman's grateful voice disappeared in the government office.

Chu Heng stepped forward and announced the news that the granaries would be opened to release grain today. The people couldn't believe it at first.

When Zhuang Yumian ordered his men to distribute the porridge, the crowd suddenly became excited and full of joy.

They would no longer starve to death, and the people’s previous resentment disappeared completely.

Notices recruiting workers were also posted outside the government office, and those who participated in post-disaster reconstruction could receive an extra portion of food.

In this way, money can be saved and people can have something to do.

If people have something to do, there will be fewer people causing trouble.

These people worked extremely hard to rebuild their homes.

By the evening of that day, a reconstruction plan was drawn up and work was ready to begin early the next morning.

The child that Cheng Jiuyuan rescued has woken up, but he is very weak, so he is temporarily allowed to recuperate in the county government office for a few days.

After Cheng Jiuyuan confirmed it again, he said to the woman, "Take the medicine on time. You can walk around after seven days."

The woman's face was filled with joy and she was about to kneel down to Cheng Jiuyuan.

Cheng Jiuyuan quickly supported her and said, "Take good care of the child. I'm going to go out first."

"Girl, you saved my son and me twice. You are so kind. I, I..."

"Practicing medicine saves lives without expecting anything in return."

After saying that, he picked up the medicine box and went out.

"Good people, Buddha and Bodhisattva, please bless this girl for the rest of her life..." A woman's murmur came from behind.

After leaving the room and turning the corner, I met Chu Heng coming towards me.

"Miss Pei, how is the child?"

Chu Heng naturally took her medicine box, and Cheng Jiuyuan followed him.

She walked to her room and said, "It's all right now."

"The young lady has great medical skills and can bring back dying people from the brink of death. I wonder who her master is?"

Cheng Jiuyuan did not answer but asked: "Who sent those people?"

"They are from the capital and are here for me. There is no need for you to get involved in this mess." Chu Heng looked indifferent, and it was obvious that he was used to it.

Cheng Jiuyuan didn't ask any more questions, knowing without thinking that it was those two people.

Arriving at the room, Cheng Jiuyuan took the medicine box.

"Thank you."

After that, close the door.

"You saved my life, why are you being so polite to me?"

"I'm tired and want to rest. Your Highness, please go back." After saying this, he closed the door without any courtesy.

Outside the door, Chu Heng touched the tip of his nose.

Shan Lan behind him almost laughed out loud.

"Your Highness, in the past it was always the ladies who took the initiative. This is the first time that Your Highness took the initiative, but he almost got his nose pinched by the lady who closed the door."

Chu Heng glanced at him and turned away.

"Have those people been interrogated? Is it Chu Jing or Chu Ze?"

Shanlan stopped laughing immediately.

Chi Zhang replied: "Those people are all dead warriors, it is difficult to get anything out of them."

"Forget it. There's no point in asking. Go and notify all the grain merchants to come to the government office at 9:00 a.m. tomorrow."

"Yes."
