"Chang'an, do you know what you're talking about?" Yan Li's face was sullen, with an expression of disbelief.
"I know." Rong Changan's expression was so calm that he couldn't be more calm. It was as simple as if what she just said was what to eat for lunch.
The calmer Rong Changan became, the more Yan Li got angry.
"Do you know how many people live below Qingyun Peak? A big town, five or six villages. There are more than 10,000 people in total!
There, Qingyun Peak soars into the clouds, and it is a famous scenic spot, which has been formed for hundreds of years.
How could it suddenly collapse
Without evidence, how can you tell me to believe you? "
Yan Li really couldn't believe Rong Changan's words, even though she had predicted that there would be a flood in Linzhou Prefecture last time, it was because there would be a flood in Linzhou Prefecture after a few years.
And this collapse of Qingyun Peak is really too mysterious! I can't believe it!
Yan Li didn't believe that the Qingyun Summit had collapsed, and Rong Chang'an had no intention of persuading him.
The two entered into a stalemate, a silent cold war.
Three days later, the two led their entourage and prepared to set off back to the imperial capital!
The rising sun of the red sun shines on the people in Linzhou Mansion who came to see them off. Their faces are filled with smiles of rebuilding their homes after the disaster. That smile is warm and kind!
"Master Imperial Envoy, we are here to see you off!" A man who looked like a middle-aged scholar stepped forward and spoke to Rong Changan and Yan Li.
The people listened to his orders and saluted the imperial envoy one after another.
Yan Li looked at the people kneeling on the ground and sighed in his heart, this is what the people want!
The army returned to Beijing and passed through the town below Qingyun Peak on the afternoon of the third day.
Yan Li looked at the towering Qingyun Peak, although he didn't believe Rong Chang'an's words, he still felt uneasy.
Along the way, the people in the village lived and worked in peace and contentment. Every household planted small vegetable gardens. The vegetation in the fields was lush. It must be a bumper harvest year. There is a peaceful atmosphere inside and outside the village.
This town is also a commercial center, very prosperous. The merchants and common people who came and went, although they were dressed in different colors and races, they all behaved peacefully. Apparently there was no dispute.
That night, Yan Li arranged for everyone to sleep in this bustling town.
Yan Li, who was in the cold war with Rong Chang'an, was tossing and turning on the bed at this moment, unable to fall asleep no matter what.
What came to my mind was Qingyun Peak falling, and the cries for help of the men, women and children below. Pair after pair of hands reached out to Yan Li, begging him for help!
Help, help!
Yan Li just fell asleep, and was awakened again, tossing and tossing all night.
At dawn, Yan Li still ordered everyone to continue traveling and leave Qingyun Town!
Rong Changan shook his head helplessly when he heard that Yan Li had arranged for everyone to move on, and moved forward with everyone!
Before walking more than ten miles, there was a burst of dark clouds in the sky, the clouds were dense, and it rained heavily after a while!
Yan Li had to arrange for everyone to bring them to stop their journey, and they put on coir raincoats and bamboo hats one after another!
Today is already the fifth day of June, if these two days pass, everything will be irreversible!
Rong Changan was also in the coir raincoat. Although it was pouring rain, he was as calm as a spring stroll!
The two stood in a small pavilion by the road, facing the big mountain in front of them.
"Chang'an, can I trust you?" Yan Li was still hesitating even though he had passed Qingyun Town.
"If you believe me, it's their lives that deserve it. If you don't believe me, it's God's punishment for them. Thunder, rain and dew are gifts from heaven, and the power of mortals is irresistible." Rong Changan was still so indifferent.
"Okay, I'll go back. The worst is to resist the decree, the worst is to reprimand the emperor a few words. It's no big deal." Yan Li rolled his eyes, made up his mind, and then ordered his entourage to return to Qingyun Town despite the rain.
It was already noon when they returned to Qingyun Town.
They are imperial envoys named by the emperor, and they have Rong Chang'an, the general who protects the country and the empress of the dynasty, the mayor Liao Yong cooperates.
"Master Imperial Envoy, our ancestors have lived here for hundreds of years. How could Qingyun Peak collapse suddenly? Isn't this unscientific?" The old mayor didn't believe the reason given by the Imperial Envoy.
Yan Li didn't explain so much to him, "Hurry up and do it, or I'll see you later."
Rong Chang'an came to the old mayor slowly, and said earnestly, "Mayor, we are also here to guide you after being instructed by an expert. If a tragedy happens tomorrow, even if you don't die in the disaster, the current emperor will not die." I will let you go. You have relocated the people, even if there is no disaster, you can still relocate back! As long as you relocate, Yan Yushi and I will bear all the consequences for you, why are you hesitating?"
The old mayor shook his head helplessly, still hesitating in his heart, and went out to go home.
When I got home, my son happened to be at home, so I told my son about it.
The son quickly persuaded his father, "Father, this is a good thing for you! If something goes wrong, someone will be responsible, and if nothing happens, someone will be responsible. Then you have to move!"
The old mayor was persuaded by his son, and he also wanted to leave, and organized the staff to relocate!
The mayor is also capable, and he even found an almost perfect reason.
"Folks, General Protector is going to conduct a military exercise here. Let's take our valuables and hide outside, and come back in a few days! To avoid accidental injury!"
As soon as everyone heard that it was a military exercise, they rushed to a wasteland more than ten miles away with their valuables for fear of being accidentally injured.
"My lord mayor, why did you carry out the military drill so suddenly? Didn't you receive any notice?" The old acquaintance of the mayor felt that things were strange and asked casually. He has acquaintances in the county, and he has not heard of the rehearsal.
The old mayor peeked around and found no one, so he replied, "An expert divination indicated that the Tianqingyun Summit collapsed, causing countless casualties. That's why I moved everyone out to save our lives."
"Confused! Why are you so confused! We have lived in the mountain for hundreds of years for dozens of generations, and we were fooled by a few words. You are so stupid!"
The old man scolded the mayor for being stupid, and the mayor was also very angry. He shook his wide sleeves, "Okay, I'm stupid. Then you can go back if you want! As long as you are not afraid of death. Anyway, we have already come out. You won't blame any of them."
The old man saw that people from the town and several surrounding villages came out, and he didn't dare to show off because of the acquaintances in the county, but he still sat aside unconvinced and ignored the mayor.
The people who were transferred out found open spaces one after another. The young and middle-aged people took care of the old people and children at home, and didn't have too many complaints.
Maybe General Protector Rong Changan was a deterrent to King Jing's rebellion last time. They thought they could do something for General Protector.
