Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Qiu Yongkang told Su Qing about Ji Shuisheng’s plan. Seeing that Su Qing was listening indifferently without giving any opinion, he asked her worriedly, “Su Qing, will it be dangerous for Shuisheng to go alone?”
Su Qing looked at Qiu Yongkang’s worried eyes and said,
“If he can’t even do this well, how can he achieve great things in the future?”
Qiu Yongkang choked on his words. She was right, but it was still hazardous for Shuisheng to go. If he went to find Commander An, wouldn’t he be like a sheep among wolves? The imperial court was killing the victims.
Su Qing saw that Qiu Yongkang was still worried and frowned. She said coldly,
“Go and do what you should do.”
“Alright then!”
Qiu Yongkang could only nod helplessly. He and Shuisheng planned to forge the document of the escort agency, and now they were still missing a big official seal.
Qiu Yongkang knew how to carve seals, so forging the official seal was not a problem. However, he had just returned and had no time to do so. Su Qing reminded him that he should not worry too much and should go and do what he needed to do first.
Ji Shuisheng and Qiu Yongkang bought a batch of brand-new cloth shoes in the city and distributed them to the villagers of Peach Blossom Cove. They asked them to throw away all the straw sandals on their feet and change into new ones. According to the plan, they couldn’t walk like the victims anymore.
At this moment, the villagers were full and reluctant to wear the new cloth shoes. They repeatedly wiped their feet for fear of dirtying the new shoes.
Ji Shuisheng also bought a batch of slightly flawed clothes for the villagers wearing patched garments. Although there were flaws, they were not obvious. At least there were no patches, and the fabric was quite good.
Everyone was busy changing their clothes. Qin Feng also transformed into a new set of clothes. He was used to pretending to be a farmer. Even if he changed into fresh clothes, he still looked like a farmer.
“Su Qing, where did Shuisheng go?”
Qin Feng came over to ask Su Qing. He didn’t dare to call his grandson and granddaughter by their real names, so he called them by their current names, along with everyone else.
“Father, he has something to do.”
Su Qing saw that Qin Feng didn’t know about this matter. It should be because Shuisheng feared he would be worried and didn’t tell the old man. Since Shuisheng didn’t say it, she couldn’t say it either.
“You guys are hiding something from me.”
Qin Feng sighed. He felt like a hero who had no place to display his abilities.
“The eagle will let the eagles fly after they grow up.”
Su Qing said with a hidden meaning. Qin Feng was slightly stunned when he heard this. Then, he nodded his head.
“You’re right. It’s time for us to let go when you young people conquer the world.”
Su Qing didn’t know when Ji Shuisheng would return, so she walked into the mountains to replenish Xiao Qi’s herbs.
Seeing her enter the mountain, Xiaoying and the girls excitedly followed her with their crossbows.
“Bring a basket.”
Su Qing did not even turn her head as she instructed. The girls then remembered to go back and get their baskets. They were so focused on hunting that they forgot to pick herbs and wild vegetables.
This mountain was called Fairy Peak. Because it was close to Luo City, there was no lack of rain, so the plants on the mountain were very lush. However, the disaster victims repeatedly searched the area near the mountain road. Besides a layer of grass stuck to the ground, everything else that could be eaten had been scraped clean.
Su Qing brought the girls into the mountains. There were many wild animals in the mountains. The girls were like they were injected with chicken blood. They threw away their baskets and went hunting.
Su Qing was the only one who was collecting herbs diligently. People were always injured along the way, and the herbs used to treat external injuries were especially expensive.
There was a lot of blood scattering grass on the mountain. It could stop bleeding, reduce swelling, and promote wound healing. It could also treat external injuries, tonsillitis, diarrhea, hemorrhoids, etc. It was an essential ingredient for Xiao Qi to use with the red medicine.
“Sister, look, I shot a deer.”
Xiaoying excitedly ran over with a deer that an arrow had shot. She held the deer up for Su Qing to see. Her beautiful big eyes shone joyfully under the sun, and she smiled like a blooming flower.
“Not bad.”
Su Qing nodded and praised Xiaoying. Xiaoying was so happy to shoot more prey with her crossbow.
Some of the girls also shot rabbits and pheasants. They jumped and jumped happily. Those who didn’t hit their prey were very depressed. They all stared at the grass wide-eyed, hoping the game would come to them soon.
Su Qing shouted at the girls,
“Stop playing around. Come and pick this herb.”
Hearing Su Qing’s shout, the girls reluctantly put down their crossbows and went to Su Qing’s basket to take out the blood-scattering grass.
Su Qing led the ladies to collect the blood-scattering herbs while Ji Shuisheng brought Wan Yuxiang to the garrison outside Luo City.
Since An Guangxing received the Emperor’s secret order to exterminate the rebellious disaster victims, he had been killing people outside. It was tough.
He was also a person who refused to let himself suffer. The first thing he did after setting up camp was to take a hot bath, change into a white robe, and enter the city to eat a big meal. Even if he stayed in the camp, he had to send someone to buy delicious food to taste.
An Guangxing had just arrived in Luo City today to rest for a day before exterminating the refugees. He had just taken a hot bath and changed into a moon-white robe. He had a male and female appearance, a fair complexion, long eyebrows, and eyes like stars. His black hair was tied up with a crown. He did not look like a general but more like a gentleman. At this moment, he sat leisurely behind a table and sipped tea.
The tea leaves were also Longjing ones he had brought from the capital. It was not a tea but a kind of honor, representing his importance to the Emperor. It was a gift from the Emperor.
“Commander.”
An Guangxing had just taken a sip of tea when a soldier ran over to report.
An Guangxing did not like people disturbing him at this time. He frowned, and his eyes were full of impatience. He ordered coldly,
“Speak.”
“A man outside the camp brought a masked man, saying he wanted to give the general a great merit.”
The soldier who came to report was frightened. Their family’s chief soldier was temperamental. Once, when a soldier disturbed him from tasting delicious food, he cut off his head with a knife and ordered someone to feed it to the dogs.
He regretted coming to report. Why didn’t he just kill that person?
However, it was also because of his greed. If that person brought great merit, the commander might be happy and reward him heavily.
An Guangxing killed people without batting an eye, but he was pretty generous when it came to rewards. As the saying goes, ‘wealth comes from danger.’ therefore, although he was cruel, there were still people willing to become soldiers under him because of the high rewards.
“Great contribution?”
An Guangxing raised his eyebrows and looked at the soldier. He had just arrived in Luo City. How did this person know that he was here? He was a little interested and ordered the soldier,
“Bring him in.”
“Okay.”
Seeing that An Guangxing wasn’t angry, the soldier heaved a sigh of relief. He bowed to An Guangxing and left.
Ji Shuisheng stood outside the camp with Wan Yuxiang, who had already returned to his original appearance. To prevent the Wan Family Army from recognizing Wan Yuxiang, Ji Shuisheng gave him a bamboo hat and covered his face with a black cloth. Because of this attire, he had almost been killed by the soldiers guarding the camp.
“Our commander ordered you to go in!”
“Someone search him first..”
