When Li Yuan heard this, she looked at her in surprise.
"Why, do you know my mother's identity?"
"You can say you know, you can also say you don't know."
Su Mingshan said, yawned and looked sideways at her.
"Sister Li, what I'm going to say next is all true. After you listen, it's up to you to decide. I just think that based on our relationship, it's necessary to tell you."
Li Yuan's face became serious when she saw her expression.
"Well, you say it and I listen!"
"Sister Li, Qin Muyang said that he went to the capital this time to meet the third lady of the Zhenguo Hou Mansion. The third lady looked very much like her aunt, and her aunt was the beauty Qian Tongpan sent to the capital. Yesterday Qin Muyang When I saw you, I looked at you with a vague look, and I asked you. You look very similar to her third lady, and your mother's life experience is unknown, so I think this may not be a coincidence. "
Li Yuan is a modern person who has read too many novels and TV series. She can think about many things as long as she is given a beginning.
As Su Mingshan revealed, she couldn't help but wonder if her father's death was intentional.
As for her mother's identity, she is actually not that curious.
At least when she is incapable, curiosity is useless and will add burden to herself.
After hearing this, she was silent for a long time, and then said: "Sister Su, thank you for telling me this. You have a good rest. I guess it's time to set off later."
She had made an agreement with the escort agency yesterday that Jiang Ping'an would lead a team to escort Su Mingshan and the others back, and the rest of them would stay here with her and return in two days.
At that time, she also wanted to go back. She felt that Xie Yanzhi's mind was quite big, and maybe she could let him make a guess to see what was going on.
If this involves her father's death, and perhaps other people's lives, then she cannot remain indifferent.
On this day, because Su Mingshan didn't sleep well the day before, she slept in Li Yuan's room until noon and didn't wake up until noon, so everyone was delayed for another day.
Just because of this delay, Li Yuan learned another news when Su Mingshan left the next day.
This snow disaster affected not only their Xinyang Mansion, but also the Luyang Mansion next to Xinyang Mansion and even the Nanman, which had always been warm, were also affected.
And this time the Nanman sent envoys to the capital by boat to request material support from the Emperor of Yun.
This did not happen in the book Li Yuan read with Wang Can as the protagonist.
So, this time because of traveling through books, rebirth, and golden fingers, the plot is getting further and further away?
During the snow disaster, the Southern Barbarians need material support. If there is a drought next year and the other side suffers as well, will they need support again?
If we don't give it, won't we still have to fight?
Thinking about this, she felt panicked for no reason.
As soon as Su Mingshan and others left, she didn't waste any time, got on the carriage, bought some random things in the city with her remaining two taels of silver, and headed to Liuyun County.
There are two worlds outside the city in Liufeng County. The streets in the city have been cleared of snow. Even if there are people who have been affected by the disaster, the chief security officer will arrange for people to help repair it. At the same time, some people will set up porridge sheds to give alms.
Outside the city, people were displaced. Many people were blue-faced, mentally numb, and coughing.
If they want to enter the city, the government officials who guard the city will use whips to drive them away.
What's more, there were bullock carts outside the city, bundling all those people into the carts and transporting them to other places.
What those people said was so familiar to her.
It is to make the people understand the difficulty of the county magistrate. The city has no way to control them, but there is a good place that can ensure that they will not starve to death and have something to eat and drink, as long as they go there honestly.
When Li Yuan and the escorts on the carriage heard these words, their fists became hardened.
Shameless, these are the people I’m talking about.
Liufeng County drove all their victims to Liuyun County.
Afraid that the people would not go, they were tied up and transported in bullock carts.
Are there any officials like this?
He was sending the disaster-stricken people under his rule to other people, why didn't he also send his black gauze hat there?
When Li Yuan and the others arrived at the junction of the two counties, they saw many people who had been affected by the disaster there. They were put down with numb expressions on their faces. After that, Nu Nu followed the people in front and walked along the official road to Liuyun County.
When Li Yuan saw this, she couldn't help but close her eyes.
This is the difference between local parents and officials!
A good official will benefit the people.
A parent-official who only knows how to make money and does nothing is miserable as a common man.
Obviously she had heard before that the magistrate of Liufeng County also asked people to stock up on supplies to keep out the cold. Why is it still like this now? What went wrong?
I don’t know if there were too many people walking, so the snow turned into slush, and the snow on the official road was much thinner than when they came.
Going back this way was much faster than when we came here.
By the time the gate of Liuyun County could be seen in the distance, the sky had begun to darken.
But what is different from the past is that the candlelight is brightly lit outside the city, which should be quiet.
Two to three hundred meters away from the city gate, many simple temporary tents were set up with oilcloths, and it seemed that some people were making porridge and giving alms.
Li Yuan was thinking about rice, and sure enough, a bag of rice appeared in the carriage.
The space is available again!
She had the carriage parked against the porridge shed, and after seeing clearly that the person cooking the porridge was Yan Jiao, she shouted to her.
"Jiaojiao!"
Yan Jiao heard the sound, looked up and saw Li Yuan, handed the big iron spoon in her hand to the person next to her, and walked towards her.
"Sister Yuan!"
Li Yuan saw her dressed as a woman, looked at her curiously, and then asked: "Are you getting married?"
Yan Jiao nodded sheepishly: "Well, it happened a few days ago. But because it was snowing, and it was not a glorious thing for Brother Gao Wu to be my son-in-law, I didn't inform everyone. I wanted to wait until the weather got better. Then call everyone over to have a meal together."
As she said that, she looked at Li Yuan and asked, "Sister Yuan, where are you coming from?"
Li Yuan knew that she also knew about Su Mingshan being left here before, so she said: "Sister Su was detained at my place before. Isn't this the twelfth lunar month? There are many things in her house and she must go back. I'm not worried, so I delivered her in person. But when I arrived in Liufeng County, I met someone who came to look for her, so I came back."
When Yan Jiao heard about Liufeng County, her face was full of disgust and she cursed in a low voice: "The dog officials from several surrounding counties were so shameless that they all sent the victims to our side. If Master Chen hadn't asked everyone to stock up on food to keep out the cold, Clothes, if it weren't for the many good people in the city, how could our county accommodate so many people? These days, Mr. Chen is very angry. I heard that someone has been sent to Fucheng to complain, and he doesn't know what the result will be. I hope these people can go home for the New Year. Otherwise, if they stay here all the time, we won’t have enough food to feed them.”
