Chapter 213 Excuse me, but is it the Regent?
Entering Yuanhe City, there were ruins everywhere, collapsed houses, bridges, trees, and many cracks on the ground. It was horrifying to look at. It was not difficult to imagine how scared the people of Yuanhe City were at that time. However, it was obvious that this place had been cleaned up and people could barely walk. However, it was still difficult for horses to pass through, so everyone walked there.
"Brother He, is this earthquake only happening in Yuanhe City? Is there no impact on the surrounding areas?" Li Mulan was a little puzzled. Along the way just now, it seemed that only the areas near Yuanhe City had signs of earthquake.
"How is that possible? The worst-hit area is Yuanhe City. Several towns to the north near Fushou City are also affected, but not as serious as here."
“Is it because there are mountains here?”
He Tian nodded. "Junior Sister Xiaojiu has also noticed that Yuanhe City is surrounded by mountains on three sides. The earth dragon turned over and caused the ground to collapse and the mountains to slide. Many people were buried before they could react. Those living in the town were better off. Some of the small villages on the mountainside were completely buried, and few bodies were found. The situation here is the most serious, and the weather is getting hotter, the situation is really...ah."
Everyone's faces turned gloomy and they stopped talking.
After walking for half an hour, they finally arrived at a...residence?
Most of the disaster victims were accommodated here. There was no end in sight. There were densely packed houses built with wood, cloth strips, thatch, etc. There were also some tents distributed by the court, but not many.
There are at least a dozen people crowded in each room. In such a hot day, these things are just enough to provide shade.
Those pairs of eyes were staring at this group of people.
There were old people, children, men, and women, and they all looked so confused and scared.
Someone said, "Is it... the Regent?"
"Regent? How is that possible?"
Slowly, more and more people looked over here, and many people even stood up and came over here.
Originally, they could still move forward, but more and more people gathered and blocked their way. An elderly man trembled and stepped forward, "Excuse me, is this the Regent?"
Judging from the old man's appearance, he should be a scholar. Although he was dirty and a little unsteady on his feet, his back was very straight.
Chu Chenfeng looked at the man, his expression did not change at all, and no one knew what he was thinking.
The old man took another step forward and asked again, "But the Regent?"
Chu Chenfeng then responded, "Yes, the king."
The old man knelt down when he heard the answer, "Greetings, Lord Regent. May Your Majesty live a thousand years, a thousand years, a thousand thousand years."
Upon seeing this, the common people also knelt down and saluted, "Greetings to the Regent, may His Majesty live a thousand years and a thousand thousand years."
"Greetings to the Regent. May your Majesty live a thousand years and a thousand thousand years."
"Greetings to the Regent. May your Majesty live a thousand years and a thousand thousand years."
"Greetings to the Regent. May your Majesty live a thousand years and a thousand thousand years."
······
The originally lifeless atmosphere suddenly became exciting.
Chu Chenfeng helped the old man in front of him up. The old man was already in tears at this moment, "The prince is here, it's really the prince, we are saved..."
The people nearby also began to whisper, "The prince is here, now we have hope."
"Yeah, I didn't expect the prince to come here in person."
"Your Highness is the God of War of our Great Chu. Your Highness will not give up on us."
"With the prince here, we will be fine."
"I didn't expect the prince would really come to a place like ours. The prince really came."
"The prince is here to save us. We will be fine as long as he is with us."
······
The blank and empty expressions on everyone's faces seemed to have some hope, and some even cried with joy.
Li Mulan and others were very shocked to see this situation. She knew that Chu Chenfeng was popular among the people, but she didn't know that he was so popular. The people seemed to regard him as a savior, and as long as he was there, there would be no misfortune.
Liu Feng was so proud at this moment. Look at his idol, so many people admired him.
Someone said, "Why did the prince come so late? It would have been better if he had come earlier."
Chu Chenfeng looked at the old man in front of him and said, "I'm sorry, I'm late."
The old man at the front was sad, but he was a reasonable person. "Your Majesty is a human, not a god. How can you know everything in advance? Your coming here shows that the Great Chu has not given up on us. We are satisfied."
"Great Chu will not abandon any of its citizens, don't worry." Although Chu Chenfeng did not deliberately raise his voice, the people at the scene could hear his words.
“Wuwuwu... If the prince had come earlier, our baby would not have died. If he had come earlier, he would definitely have been treated, wuwuwu..."
I don’t know which woman started crying first, then the second one, then the third one... The crying went from soft sobbing to loud wailing, even a straight man like Huo Yuanruo was moved.
Seeing this situation, Chu Chenfeng's eyes moved slightly, and he took a few steps forward, "No one can predict natural disasters and man-made disasters. I know that you must have experienced many twists and turns to survive, but the dead are dead, and the living must live well for them. Now that I have come here, I will not abandon any of the people of Yuanhe City. Give me some time, and I will give you a new home as quickly as possible."
"Thank you, Your Majesty. May Your Majesty live a thousand years!"
"Thank you, Your Majesty. May Your Majesty live a thousand years!"
"Thank you, Your Majesty. May Your Majesty live a thousand years!"
······
Chu Chenfeng and his group arrived at their camp amid the cheers of the people of Yuanhe City.
Gu Changqing pointed to the newly erected tents and said, "These are prepared for you. You can put down your bags and pack up first."
Then he pointed to a slightly larger tent and said, "Your Highness, yours is over here."
Chu Chenfeng nodded, "Okay."
"My subordinate is here."
"Go settle in first, and then get familiar with it as soon as possible."
"Yes."
Xingyi glanced at Gu Changqing and said, "Young Marquis, please find someone to lead the way for us."
"I'll take you there." He Tian was more familiar with the situation, so he took the initiative to take on this task, and left with the large group of people who followed Chu Chenfeng this time.
Xuanming was impatient when it came to illness and was unwilling to waste any time. "Take me to see the patient first."
Gu Changqing glanced at Chu Chenfeng and bowed to Xuan Ming, "Doctor Xuan, don't you need to take a rest?"
"Need not."
"Then..." Gu Changqing looked at Chu Chenfeng again.
Chu Chenfeng nodded, "I will go there too."
"I'll go too." Li Mulan also took two steps forward.
When Huo Yuanruo, Liu Feng and others saw that Li Mulan was going, they also expressed their desire to go over and see if there was anything they could do to help.
Lin Yunfan arranged for someone to stay behind to clean up and followed them.
