Chapter 4 Quarrel

Duan Shubai had listened to the tragic stories of the world for an entire afternoon. He had just traveled through time and met such a corrupt official who made people want to get rid of him. He originally thought that Yangzhou had been hit by disasters one after another, and corrupt officials had nowhere to be corrupt. However, he did not expect that the more miserable the people were, the easier it would be for these shameful things to breed.

He asked people to record the crimes reported by the victims, along with the evidence, and verified them one by one.

"Sir, may I ask who you are?" Someone among the refugees asked, and everyone looked at Duan Shubai.

Zhang Changle answered first: "Your Excellency is the General of the Cavalry appointed by the Emperor himself. You are currently the governor of Yangzhou and just took up your post yesterday."

"So it's the governor. You must make a decision for us."

"So the court hasn't given up on us."

"You must make a decision for us."

Everyone knelt on the ground, begging for the savior from heaven. Duan Shubai deeply imprinted those pairs of eager eyes in his mind. Even after many years, he still remembered them as fresh.

Duan Shubai felt complicated. He felt that a heavy burden was on him. The people of Yangzhou were too miserable. Now that he was the governor here, he had to lead them to live a rich and beautiful life.

He calmed down and assured everyone in a steady tone: "Please rest assured, I will make that damned man pay the price he deserves."

His words were murderous, but they made the victims feel as if they had taken a reassurance pill. Those who originally had no desire to survive now had the desire to live. They wanted to live, and they wanted to watch their enemies go to destruction.

Duan Shubai asked people to take care of these sick victims. At this time, some of the victims' families came from the city to visit them. Duan Shubai asked people to make some simple masks and told them to be careful when contacting patients.

He asked people to cook ginger soup and boil water, disinfect all the things used by the patients, and asked the cooks in the army to cook pots of millet porridge with salt to distribute to the victims. He had contacted an old Chinese doctor in his previous life and knew a simple prescription for strengthening the body and preventing diseases. He arranged for someone to cook medicine and let healthy people drink a bowl to prevent infection.

Until the sun set, Duan Shubai settled everything and went back. He had just taken a hot bath and drank a bowl of medicine to get rid of the bad luck, and someone hurried to find him.

It was Xiao Yu and Qiu Ran beside him. Qiu Ran was still wearing a green dress, with his hair tied up behind his head. His sleeves were rolled up, and he looked extremely anxious: "General, the young master hasn't eaten for a whole day. What should we do?"

The young master was in a bad mood when he got up this morning, and Qiu Ran was so anxious.

Are they going to make him busy like a top? Duan Shubai closed his eyes and asked, "Why doesn't your young master eat?"

"The young master said he has no appetite..."

Other people can't eat even if they want to, and here there is still one who has no appetite. Duan Shubai pushed the door and walked into the room, and closed the door with a clang. Qiu Ran was locked outside the door. He hesitated for a moment, but decided not to go in and let the general coax the young master.
