Chapter 169 A Land of Outstanding People and Abundant Resources
The head of the Bu family was filled with disbelief, but he was still dragged out.
Not long after, exclamations came from outside, then gradually faded into the distance.
The heads of various clans felt both delighted and saddened by the loss of their kin.
The patriarch of the largest family in Cheng'an County was beheaded just like that?
They had no doubt that the Bu family's property could be confiscated peacefully.
If the Crown Prince's power can't even handle this, then what can it handle?
But now, all the clan leaders are looking at Xi Yaoyue with strange expressions.
Just who is this stunningly beautiful woman?
A local tyrant had his home ransacked just because he made a flippant remark to the Marchioness?
Xi Yaoyue looked at Qin Changqing in surprise: "Your Highness, this..."
Qin Changqing chuckled: "If you encounter any injustice, Madam, just tell me."
"I refuse to believe that the Great Qian Dynasty would allow snakes, insects, rats, and ants to disrupt its grand plan."
Xi Yaoyue quickly bowed and said, "Your Highness, how can this humble woman possibly accept such a position..."
Qin Changqing had his maid help her up: "If I say you can handle it, then the Lady of the Marquis can handle it too."
"Right, young master?"
The Crown Prince of Daqian dared not neglect this heir of the Marquis of Zhenyuan in the slightest.
He not only provided the prescription, but also acted with great strategy, making him a truly talented individual in the future.
Qin Changqing also gathered some information and learned that this guy not only gained the favor of the Imperial Preceptor, but also made a name for himself at the academy.
If he also knew that Su Yun led a group of saints to cause a great disturbance in the Emperor's Tomb and obtained a series of opportunities.
My jaw would probably drop.
If the mother of such a talented person is humiliated, and the person doesn't intervene, they'll likely be severely reprimanded.
Sure enough, Grand Tutor Mu picked up his pen and quickly wrote the character "甲" (jia).
Qin Changqing couldn't stop smiling.
Those who disagree with the ideas of the Marquis of Zhenyuan's heir are either C or D.
Treat him well, and he immediately received an A grade.
Qin Changqing decided to make a good profit!
Su Yun chuckled: "That's right."
This crown prince is quite shrewd; it seems he can sit on the throne in the future.
Ding!
You entered a time rift and changed history.
[After merging with the Great Dao, those who survived the changes brought about by history will remember your kindness.]
[It must be that they stumbled into a time rift, right?]
Before Cheng'an County was transformed into a living hell, you destroyed the Bu family, the mastermind behind everything.
[As a result, 300,000 more people survived in Cheng'an County, including two great emperors and one immortal.]
They will spread your heroic deeds throughout the world, clearing the Demon Lord's name of his past.
[Task Difficulty: Very High]
[Quest Reward: Reversing Fate and Cleansing Marrow Technique]
Su Yun exclaimed in surprise, "A time rift? This system... it's deceiving itself now."
The system must be wondering why the Demon Lord always resurrects people from a thousand years ago.
However, what Su Yun cared about more was: "If it's just confiscating the Bu family's property, it will only allow 300,000 more people to live in Cheng'an County."
"Too little."
Since the goal is to clear their names, the objective is naturally to rescue all ten million people!
On one hand, it's its reputation; on the other hand, it's because Cheng'an County is a place of outstanding people and abundant resources!
With a surviving population of 300,000, there are enough to produce two great emperors and one immortal.
If all ten million survive, they could all become Su Yun's help!
In his previous life, the chosen one led all realms to fight the Demon Lord.
In this lifetime, those hypocrites will taste what an iron fist is!
"The Reversal of Fate and Marrow Cleansing Technique..." Su Yun sensed his newfound possession. "It's like a pillow coming out of a daze, I've found the perfect solution!"
It took Kong Yan a while to come to his senses, and he glanced blankly at his sister and nephew.
Has this brother-in-law's family become so powerful?
Even the crown prince took down the local tyrant because of a single sentence?
Kong Yan's expression was complicated: "Your Highness, please have your meal first."
Qin Changqing remained courteous and respectful, saying, "Please, everyone."
After enjoying five different dishes and several rounds of drinks, the guests and hosts were all very happy.
Xi Yaoyue also breathed a sigh of relief.
Somehow, the son also became involved with the Crown Prince.
But it doesn't seem like a bad thing.
Although we have entered Cheng'an County, which was hit by the disaster, the situation is still under control.
Let's send our children away when we have some free time.
You Li had just suppressed her living soul, which had no ability to think, but could still obey commands.
The second soul has been identified, and it has been confirmed that it is currently stranded in the capital.
The next step is to invest manpower and resources in the search.
Since her children were all alright, Xi Yaoyue began to help Uncle Su Yun with whatever she could.
Since Qin Changqing has entered the city, he must contribute to the disaster relief efforts.
He was exhausted after working for seven days straight.
The situation in the city is getting worse and worse. There is no way to control the epidemic, and more and more people are in danger of losing their lives.
No matter how much manpower and resources are invested, it's like falling into a vast ocean, unable to even make a ripple.
In this situation, everyone is on edge.
As more and more bad news came in, Qin Changqing even began to think about the final solution.
On this day, Qin Changqing was discussing matters with a group of prominent families as usual when suddenly a commotion broke out outside.
Kong Yan stood up: "Your Highness, I'll go take a look."
He went out, but didn't come back for a long time.
Qin Changqing then said, "Let's go take a look too."
When the heads of the major clans saw that the Bu family had been raided, they dared not disobey and all followed suit eagerly.
But once they got outside, they exclaimed in alarm!
They shouldn't have come out!
A tall, elegant woman in a black phoenix robe stood in front of the door.
She threw the two monsters, covered in tumors and strange appendages, onto the ground.
Upon seeing Qin Changqing, he couldn't help but chuckle: "Your Highness, my father sent me to ask if your disaster relief efforts have been effective?"
Qin Changqing frowned slightly: "Eighth Princess, what does this have to do with you?"
Princess Qin Ke, the eighth princess, was renowned for both her literary and martial arts skills.
He was sent to the north as soon as he came of age, where he made a number of trade deals with the brutal northern barbarian kingdom and gained great fame.
He has been highly praised by the people over the years and is also known as the "Eighth Wise King".
More importantly, she is Qin Changqing's strongest competitor, who wants to challenge for the position of Crown Prince.
Once it's done, the Great Qian Dynasty will be ruled by an empress!
"None of my business?" The Eighth Princess chuckled lightly, kicking the monster on the ground with her long, slender legs.
Even if the things on the ground are covered in sores and have terrible appendages.
Qin Changqing knew that it was a person!
People infected with the disease!
He frowned: "These are subjects of my Great Qian Dynasty, why must you be so rude, Eighth Sister?"
The Eighth Princess looked at him provocatively and said sarcastically, "Oh, the Crown Prince is quite kind-hearted."
Whoosh!
She channeled her spiritual power and pulled a token from the man's waist: "Your Highness, may I ask what this is?"
Qin Changqing frowned as he took it, then his eyes widened: "A travel permit for Hunqing County!"
Hunqing County was also a town under the rule of the Great Qian Dynasty, and it was four thousand miles away from here.
Ordinary cultivators would have to fly a certain distance, and mortals would have to spend a lot of time to get through.
It's astonishing that patients have appeared in such a remote place.
It is clear that the plague has spread!
The Eighth Princess leaned close to Qin Changqing's ear and whispered smugly, "Crown Prince, you're here guarding the place, yet the plague still manages to spread."
"When my father learned of this, he was furious and ordered me to investigate the matter thoroughly immediately."
"Is there anything you want to say, or anything you want to do?"
