The two of them followed Liu Huya into Liujia Village, and sure enough, everywhere they saw were ruins. Further inside, there are some newly built thatched houses. The women and children of Liujia Village are temporarily housed in these thatched houses.
When the villagers saw that Liu Huya had brought back the stranger, they all looked nervously at Li Xiao and the old King of Qin, and arranged for people to report the news to Liu Erqiang quickly.
Liu Huya knew that the villagers were afraid that this hard-won moment of peace would be destroyed by outsiders. In fact, he was also afraid at the beginning, so he planned to sacrifice his life. But when he knew the identities of the two people in front of him, he also figured out that if they really wanted to destroy Liujiacun, they could still find Liujiacun even if he died.
"Don't be afraid, everyone, this is General Li Xiaoli, the lord of Dongli City, and this is the King of Qin of Yi State." Liu Huya introduced.
"Folks, they are the ones who ruined our Liguo." At this time, a person said from a distance. After walking in, Li Xiao recognized that the person who spoke was Liu Erqiang.
"Brother." Liu Huya quickly lowered his head and greeted him.
"Huya, how dare you take them back to Liujia Village? Do you want all the villagers to die?" Liu Erqiang said.
"Brother, that's not the case. They took me away and didn't do anything to me. They only said they could help the people of Liujiacun live and work in peace and contentment like in Dongli City." Liu Huya quickly explained.
"If they hadn't killed the emperor and the prince, would we have been homeless?" Liu Erqiang said angrily.
"It's all the fault of Li Guo for getting to this point. We didn't bring it on our own initiative." Old King Qin couldn't help but say.
"Indeed, both Yan State and Yi State care about Li State's territory. After Li State's imperial power collapsed, his father divided Li State into three and handed them over to the three parties for rule. He also hoped that Li State could start over in a new form. Li Xiao paused and said: "Actually, no matter who the emperor is, no matter whether he is leaving the country or the city, as ordinary people, don't we just want to have enough food and clothing? We can't stop the war, but now we have finally stopped fighting." , what we have to do is to unite to rebuild and develop, instead of turning into bandits. Sooner or later, if you are a bandit, you will be eradicated by the government. At that time, what will our people do? Fugitive to the end of the world, with no fixed place to live. ?"
Everyone listened to Li Xiao's words without saying a word and fell into deep thought.
When Liu Erqiang saw this, he still didn't believe it, so he said: "Don't be fooled by them. Who doesn't know that Li Xiao is the consort of the ninth princess of the Yan Kingdom? Some of these royal relatives can put themselves in the shoes of the common people and say Maybe they just want to use us to gain power and take credit! In the end, we untouchables are just used as pawns by powerful people like them."
"Brother, I'm afraid you haven't heard about the current situation in Dongli City, right? Why don't you go and find out? In just a few months, under the governance of the lord of Dongli City, the people are able to be self-sufficient, and the farmers are The seeds are provided by the City Lord's Mansion, as well as technical guidance, and finally the City Lord's Mansion is responsible for purchasing the fruits. You said, this Dongli City once belonged to the Li Kingdom, if we just use them as chess pieces, why bother with so much effort?" Li Xiao said slowly.
"Then what are you planning?" Liu Erqiang asked.
"What do you want?" Li Xiao smiled and said, "The city lord wants the people to live and work in peace and contentment; and I want the city lord to be happy."
