Mingxi didn't know when he woke up. He stood behind Xu Jinbei, looked at the cheering people in front of him, and looked at Xu Jinbei suspiciously, "What are those people happy about?"
Xu Jinbei pointed to the people who were queuing up on the other side, "Shen Yuexuan opened a storehouse for disaster relief, opened the door of Shen's house, and took some of the injured people home."
"Shen Yuexuan?" Ming Xi asked uncertainly, he couldn't see that Shen Yuexuan was such a benevolent and kind person, "He really said that."
"It's unbelievable. There is an old saying that businessmen value profits. Although I have little experience, I have never heard of a businessman who does not ask for anything in return." Xu Jinbei said in a low voice.
Ming Xi smiled, "He doesn't ask for anything in return, what he's helping now is not the common people, but the court."
Xu Jinbei looked at Mingxi suspiciously.
"His identity is not upright enough. Although he is well-known in Canghai City, have you heard his name in other places? It can be seen that he usually walks outside incognito. Now he is helping the court to relieve disasters, which is enough to atone for his sins. What's more, it wasn't him who was guilty back then, but his ancestors." Ming Xi snorted coldly, "He's planning for the future."
"It's already like this. He still doesn't give up. He doesn't know if the people in the secret room will die that day." Xu Jinbei was secretly shocked by what Mingxi said. The situation is understood better than anyone.
Ming Xi looked over there to the people who were still cheering and thanking Shen Yuexuan, he smiled lightly, "If Shen Yuexuan died, Shen Yuexuan would not be here to help the disaster."
"Then Shen Yuexuan did this... for his daughter?" Xu Jinbei was startled.
"No matter what the reason is, everything he does now is good for the people. As for whether he can get the benefits he wants in the future, that's unknown." Ming Xi said calmly.
"What's the benefit?" Mio'er rubbed her eyes and walked out of the tent, only to hear the last half of Mingxi's words.
Ming Xi turned around and saw Mio'er's jade-white face stained with dust, took out a handkerchief to wipe her, "Wash your face well in a while, you'll look like a little cat."
Mio'er nodded with a smile, and when she heard cheers not far away, she looked over suspiciously, "What's going on over there?"
"Someone is distributing food." Mingxi said.
"Food?" Mio'er's eyes lit up, "Then I'll go get some food too, I'm hungry."
Xu Jinbei frowned and said, "I'll find what Mio'er wants to eat, don't eat that Shen Yuexuan's food."
"Shen Yuexuan is distributing food over there, we won't eat it." Ming Xi said.
Huohuang's head popped up behind Mio'er, "Shen Yuexuan is so generous?"
"I heard that his eldest daughter lost a leg. The Shen family is obviously not damaged, and his daughter's leg is lost for some reason." Xu Jinbei said, "I followed General Wang into the city today, and many places in the city have become damaged. There are ruins, and the casualties are still unknown."
"Let's go into the city to have a look." Mingxi said.
Xu Jinbei nodded, "I'll go with you, by the way, the imperial envoy for disaster relief this time is Master Xiao Lu."
"Then we can see uncle soon." Ming Xi smiled faintly, "Go and see what the Shen family is like now."
"I have to change my clothes before I go, my whole body is dirty." Mio'er shouted.
Girls always like glamorous ones, Mingxi smiled and nodded, "We'll wait for you."
Once in and out, Mio'er had already changed into clean and beautiful clothes, and all the stains on her face were also cleaned.
Xu Jinbei was stunned for a moment, remembering that Huohuang once used one hand to get a person into the pool in front of him, he felt that no matter how strange it was, he could accept it.
The origins of Huohuang and Mio'er must be very complicated.
It didn't take long for the four children to arrive outside the city gate. Night had already fallen. At this time before, the city was full of lights and bustling everywhere. Now, except for the faint crying, only the soldiers were seen carrying them from the ruins. Dig out the busy figure of the dead body.
"Canghai City is destroyed." Xu Jinbei sighed softly, "Even if the imperial court is willing to rebuild, I don't know how many years it will take."
"An abandoned place is also the easiest to be ignored." Ming Xi continued to walk forward. Shen Yuexuan was a businessman. If he felt that Canghai City had no value, he would definitely not stay here.
Maybe, today's Canghai City is even more opportunity for the few people in the secret room that day.
Different from other places, the Shen's house was brightly lit, and people came in and out of the gate, making it look very lively.
"It seems that General Wang has already sent some wounded to Shen's house. Shen Yuexuan has attracted so many followers, some of whom are knowledgeable in medicine." Xu Jinbei said in a low voice.
"The guests who came to the Shen's house that night were not injured?" Ming Xi raised his eyebrows. It is impossible for the Shen family to keep so many people at home.
"Many diners were injured, but Shen Yuexuan asked people to arrange the injured diners properly." Xu Jinbei said, he had inquired about it when he was out of the city, so he knew it better.
Ming Xi smiled lightly, "It seems that Shen Yuexuan intends to be Lu Buwei."
Although the method is different from Lu Buwei's, the nature is the same.
"Who is Lu Buwei?" Xu Jinbei asked suspiciously, he had never heard of this person.
"A merchant who became the prime minister, the biography I saw in my mother's collection should have been fabricated by someone in the past." Ming Xi said.
Xu Jinbei sighed, "My lady's collection of books is really rich."
He has been studying abroad for so long, but he has never heard of this book.
Mingxi said, "Most of my mother's books were brought back from overseas. If you want to read them, I can get them to you in Kyoto."
A look of joy flashed across Xu Jinbei's face, "Okay."
"Let's go in." Ming Xi said, walking towards the gate of Shen's house.
Now all the servants of the Shen family were called by Shen Yuexuan to help take care of the wounded. There was no gatekeeper outside the door, and the four of them walked in unscrupulously. The discipline of the subordinates is still very strict.
"Master Mingxi." General Wang and Shen Yuexuan just came out of the hall, saw Mingxi standing on the bluestone road, and strode over.
A flash of surprise flashed in Shen Yuexuan's eyes, General Wang was so polite to a young man? Who is that
Wang Qu has already come in front of Mingxi, "Master Mingxi, why are you here, don't stay in the tent and rest for a while."
"I've been resting for a long time, I'm going to the city to see what's going on." Ming Xi said.
"General Wang, this is..." Shen Yuexuan came over and looked at Mingxi and the others with a smile. He only recognized Xu Jinbei who Wang Qu brought with him in the morning, but the other three children looked unfamiliar.
