After hearing this, Xie Chaochao just nodded.

After all, how do you know what will happen in the future?

I have to fight to the end.

Su Moqing would still not forgive him if it happened again.

At this time, Pearl said outside, "Madam, there are two children outside who want to see you."

Xie Chaochao guessed that it should be the two little kids, so he said "OK". The door was opened, and he really saw the two little kids walking in from outside.

She has two pairs of innocent and clear big eyes.

He looked at her and blinked.

"Sister, are you okay?"

Xie Chaochao reached out and rubbed their hair, telling them that nothing was wrong. He then asked why they came here. The two little kids looked around and said that they came to express their gratitude.

He then took out a small paper crane made of straw from his arms.

Give it to her and say thank you.

After asking carefully, I found out that it was the villagers who knew about this and wanted to come and thank her, but they were afraid of disturbing her rest, so they could only let the two little kids come.

Xie Chaochao was happy and held the two little babies in her arms.

"thank you all."

When Chu Heng sent the two kids out, he saw a large group of people standing outside the door. It turned out that they had been waiting here. He closed the door gently and walked over to inform them of the situation.

Many villagers breathed a sigh of relief when they learned that Xie Chaochao was fine.

Someone nearby said that Su Moqing was a piece of shit. He was the fifth prince, but he had to compete with the villagers for food. Was it easy to transport all this food?

Seeing that they were filled with indignation, Chu Heng naturally didn't say much.

But now there is a more important point to deal with, that is the cause and source of the drought. If this is not handled properly, Bianbei will still be a poor place.

But it’s not good to let Xie Chaochao stay here alone.

I could only look at the bamboo fish next to me.

"You stay here and take care of the lady with Pearl."

"Yes!"

After saying this, Zhuyu stayed where he was, and Chu Heng left with the villagers.

……

A lot of big things happened in Bianbei these days.

I heard that Su Moqing had aroused public anger, and if it weren't for the protection of the guards, he might have been knocked to the ground.

Xie Chaochao was very confused and asked Pei'er who was standing beside him. Only then did she learn that Su Moqing used the water that the villagers cherished most to bathe his pet cat.

Can animals be compared to humans?

This water is for everyone to drink and it is used to save lives.

But he actually gave the cat a bath! Not only was it a waste, but everyone was furious.

At this moment, they were pressed not far away by Su Moqing's men. The yellow sand was everywhere and the sound of the wind was like a knife, cutting into everyone's heart. It was so painful, but they did not regret it at all.

Even death doesn't seem to bother them.

Pairs of angry eyes stared at Su Moqing.

Some children even cursed loudly.

Su Moqing gritted his teeth and asked the guards next to him to drag the child over.

He recognized him as the little boy who was outside the pillar that day with Xie Chaochao.

A slap across the face.

"Damn it! Who told you to resist me? Don't you know who I am?"

"It's really embarrassing for you."

Many people wanted to rush forward when they saw this, but were held back and knelt down one by one. "Fifth Prince, if you are angry, please vent it on us, not on the child."

"The child is innocent."

Su Moqing narrowed his eyes and kicked him.

"Who do you think you are? How dare you order me around? You are so powerful."

"Come here, give them ten big strokes of the cane each! I don't believe it! Can they still rebel?"

The guard next to him nodded and rushed over to fight.

"stop!"

There were voices behind them, and everyone turned around to see Xie Chaochao, with obvious bruises on the corners of his mouth, walking towards them with an angry look on his face and eyes full of disdain.

"Su Moqing, this is how you treat them. If you tell the emperor about this, you will be in big trouble. Didn't the emperor specially send you and General Chu to deal with the drought here?"

"A large number of people died here due to drought. The remaining people are all hardworking laborers. They are the hope for survival and inheritance. They are not for you to beat and scold."

"stand up."

As soon as he finished speaking, he was about to stand up, but Su Moqing intervened and shouted angrily, "Let's see who dares!"

"Whoever dares to stand up will be killed by me!"

The villagers couldn't kneel or stand, they would die no matter which one they chose.

Xie Chaochao was angry and walked over to face Su Moqing.

"Let them go, and I'll kneel down in their place."

Su Moqing became interested and looked them up and down. "Okay, kneel down. If you kneel down, I will let them stand up."

Xie Chaochao knelt on the ground without saying a word.

Su Moqing looked left and right and up and down, then knelt properly, which made all the villagers behind him stand up, and he said with a smile on his face.

"Be grateful. This prince is kind. Otherwise, it would not be your turn to atone for your sins."

The villagers watched and felt very sad.

Xie Chaochao has helped them time and again, which has already aroused everyone's gratitude. Now... seeing her kneeling down, they feel even more heartbroken.

"What are you doing?"

Someone squeezed out from the crowd. Zhuyu had just gone to get food when he found that Xie Chaochao and Pei'er were missing. Following the source of the sound, he discovered that Su Moqing was causing trouble again.

"Fifth Prince, what are you doing?"

"Miss Xie is the wife of General Chu, what's the purpose of asking her to kneel down?"

Su Moqing sneered.

"What's it to you? Get lost."

"Absolutely not. I am under the order of the Lord to protect the Madam. I will never let her suffer any harm."

"Madam, stand up. Don't kneel."

Su Moqing shouted, "Okay! Since she won't kneel! Then let the villagers kneel!"

"Bamboo fish." Xie Chaochao stared straight ahead and said word by word, "Get up."

"Madam!" Zhuyu was very anxious.

What would happen if the adults knew about this?

"Very good, then you kneel down."

After Su Moqing finished speaking, he walked to a shady place and sat down. Zhuyu was so anxious that he finally knelt down with him.

The sun was scorching, there was no water or food, and even the air was scorching hot. Xie Chaochao became increasingly unable to stop, especially since he was injured.

My eyes went dark and I was about to faint.

But I remembered what Su Moqing said, and felt that I couldn't just sit there and wait, otherwise I would be close to death. No matter how I looked at it, I felt that the other party was targeting me.

You can do it once or twice, but not three times.

This little life must not be lost here.

Xie Chaochao looked up at him and suddenly smiled and said.

"Fifth Prince, I have something to tell you."

Su Moqing thought she was going to give in, so he nodded and said, "Tell me about it."

Xie Chaochao stood up directly from the ground and asked Zhuyu to support him.

She smiled and said, "I won't kneel anymore. I suddenly realized that you are not a good person."

"Since there isn't, I won't kneel to you again."
