After the two children fell asleep, she got out of the carriage. Everyone packed up and continued on their way.
While everyone else was heading for capital, they were heading in the direction of the disaster in the Northwest region.
What a sin!
On the way, Bai Qingqian found an excuse to add some magical spring water to the water to replenish everyone's physical strength and relieve fatigue.
In one day, they had a much easier time than Chen Chuan and his men.
Chen Chuan looked at them with a gloomy expression. He couldn't figure out why they, who practiced martial arts, were more tired in the same way.
Seeing this, Bai Qingqian smiled secretly.
Sitting in a wheelchair, Qin Jinmo looked at her coldly not far away, and her elder brother Bai Qingzhou was standing next to him.
Both of them couldn't read her mind.
Was she changing or putting on an act?
Feeling someone staring at her from behind, she felt as if there was a blade on her back. She looked back and saw Qin Jinmo and Bai Qingzhou immediately look away.
But it was just the two of them in that direction.
Don't pretend!
She looked around and saw that everyone was packing up in an orderly manner. They didn't forget to light a fire so that it would be easier to light up at night.
However, she saw Cui Ting walking away with a cold face and saying a few words to a few strangers.
Behind those strangers was a plate trailer with some sacks piled up on it.
It should be food.
After a while, they finished talking. Cui Ting said in a deep voice, "The supplies are here."
Everyone's eyes lit up.
Even Bai Qingzhou and Bai Qingyan showed a little joy on their faces.
Fortunately, there was still supplies.
Bai Qingzhou took the lead and moved the food to their plate trailer with several manservants. Unexpectedly, Chen Chuan stopped them with his men.
"Wasn't your food snatched away?"
Chen Chuan looked at the grain with malicious intentions. He raised his chin and motioned for Cui Ting to throw a bag of grain to the ground. Then, he pulled out his sword and stabbed it hard into the sack.
The yellow rice poured out.
"What are you doing!" Bai Qingyan lost her temper and rushed to Cui Ting, ready to start a fight.
Unexpectedly, Chen Chuan held a long sword in his hand and hit him hard in the chest with the hilt.
He groaned in pain and took a few steps back.
"Husband!" Ruan Sisi exclaimed and ran to him with a slightly bulging belly.
Bai Qingyan suddenly raised her hand and said, "Don't come over."
Chen Chuan was vicious. Who knew if he would harm a pregnant woman.
Ruan Sisi stood still with red eyes and tears rolling down her cheeks.
Seeing this, Chen Chuan sneered. "At least you know your place. You're just prisoners. You'd better not fight with me."
As he spoke, he poked through the grain sacks.
The food seeped out of his pocket and mixed with the dust on the ground.
The rice could still be washed, but how to wash corn flour and wheat flour?
Seeing the food scattered all over the ground, the Bai family members were so angry that their eyes turned red.
This cruel beast!
They wished they could eat his flesh and drink his blood.
However, Chen Chuan didn't take it seriously. He sneered and said, "This grain is all yours from now on. I'll give you guys an incense stick's worth of time to carry it up and put it away. Otherwise, you can only give the rest to the other refugees."
The refugees not far away had been drooling over their food for a long time. When they heard his words, they were even more eager to take action and wished no rice could be picked up.
All the members of the Bai family clenched their fists and hated Chen Chuan for being such a lackey.
If not for the Crown Prince's instructions, he would not have done such a thing.
Qin Jinmo sat quietly in his wheelchair, his eyes as cold as knives.
Qin Zhu was already furious. He lowered his voice and said, "Prince Qin, this Chen Chuan is too arrogant. Do you want me to..."
He made a cracking motion.
Qin Jinmo shook his head. "We have another one after getting rid of this Chen Chuan, who might be even more ruthless."
Qin Zhu changed his expression slightly. He knew that he was impulsive, so he stopped talking.
On the other side, the people of the Bai Family seized the time to hold the food. There was only a little wheat flour left. Bai Qingyan squatted there and held it little by little.
"Be careful. After all, it's all your food. If it's not enough, you will starve to death on the way. Mr. Bai is noble. I'm afraid you don't know how difficult it is for those refugees to survive."
"When they are so hungry they can't stand it anymore, they even exchange their children as food."
"Ugh!"
Hearing what Chen Chuan said, Ruan Sisi, who was pregnant, felt sick in her stomach. She turned her head and vomited.
"Ms. Ruan doesn't seem to accept it!"
"Enough!" Bai Qingyan raised the white flour in her hand, strode over to Ruan Sisi, and handed her the water bag.
Just then, an incense stick's worth of time passed.
Chen Chuan's men stopped them forcefully, at which point the refugees, who had long been dumbfounded, swept away what was left.
Chen Chuan looked haughtily at the refugees fighting over the food, his eyes full of pity from the superior.
Bai Qingqian looked at his expression with a touch of coldness in her eyes.
However, Chen Chuan also ordered that if Bai Qingyan wasted food, the Bai family would be punished together and have no dinner.
After walking for a whole day, they were already hungry. If they were not allowed to eat at this time, they would probably be too hungry to sleep at night.
However, the Bai family's faces darkened, and no one compromised.
Chen Chuan glanced at Qin Jinmo and sneered. "Prince Qin is also the son-in-law of the Bai family. He will be treated as the same."
Bai Qingqian raised her eyebrows, "He did it on purpose."
At night, Chen Chuan and the others took out the jerky and roasted it over the fire. The fragrance suddenly filled the air.
Many refugees smelled it and gathered around, staring straight at the jerky in their hands.
They also wanted to eat meat.
However, the long swords on their waists were extremely sharp. The refugees did not dare to risk their lives.
Bai Qingqian and the others couldn't help swallowing when they saw Chen Chuan eating jerky.
"Ugh!" Ruan Sisi retched again when she smelled and thought of what Chen Chuan had said.
Seeing that her face was pale, Bai Qingyan was very anxious.
"Don't worry, I'll take a look at her."
"Can you?" Bai Qingyan looked at her suspiciously.
He wondered if she had been extremely lucky when she treated Qin Jinmo.
It was nonsense that the daughter of a general could learn everything.
Seeing that he didn't believe it, Bai Qingqian smiled and said, "I'll try."
After that, she came to Ruan Sisi and gave her a massage.
Although Ruan Sisi did not believe her, she had no strength to refuse now, so she could only cooperate obediently.
But after Bai Qingqian inserted the needles, she felt more comfortable and less nauseated.
Coo! Coo!
Ruan Sisi's stomach growled at the wrong time.
Bai Qingqian tutted and said, "you are hungry."
Ruan Sisi blushed instantly and glared at her with dissatisfaction. "Shouldn't I?"
"You should!"
Bai Qingqian glanced at Chen Chuan and the others, who were eating heartily, and chuckled. "Don't worry, we'll be able to eat soon. Let's eat well tonight!"
After that, she got up and walked to Qin Jinmo. Chen Chuan and his men were sitting between the two of them.
When she passed by them, Chen Chuan glanced at her warily.
However, she just smiled a little and left.
Chen Chuan felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't tell what it was.
After thinking about it for a while, he felt sleepy.
Bai Qingqian watched from a distance and said with a slight smile, "Three, two, one, fall!"
As soon as she finished speaking, they fell to the ground one after another with a muffled groan.
