    After that, there was a little follower behind Zhu Houzhao who was wiping his nose.

    The little attendant didn¡¯t have a name, so Zhu Houzhao called her Zhu Xiaorong.

    This name disgusted Fang Jifan for a long time!

    Xiaorong is a very obedient person. Wherever Zhu Houzhao goes, she will follow him.

    Liu Jin, the old follower, had no choice but to hide in the distance. He always secretly took out a small piece of steamed cake from his sleeve, gently put it in his mouth and took a sip, then looked around, and then carefully stuffed it back.  Put it up your sleeve.

    By chance, he looked at the girl who was always following His Highness the Crown Prince. He couldn't help but feel jealous in his eyes, but he was helpless.

    The health workers began to treat illnesses, began to build some simple fortifications, and at the same time began to distribute rations, although the rations were about to run out

    So, after Wang Shouren discussed with Fang Jifan, he had to boldly go back, taking some people with him to clear the road and protect the incoming Xishan grain team.

    At a certain breach in the river embankment, water was still flooding wildly.

    After observing the river construction, a health worker who was quite familiar with the river construction made suggestions to Fang Jifan, and decided to make up the first embankment.  According to his speculation, if this hole could be filled, the water in the county would most likely recede!

    In this matter, Zhu Houzhao took the lead and personally led the people to start repairing the river embankment.

    This is extremely hard work, but Zhu Houzhao is not afraid of hardship. He will first carry Zhu Xiaorong, who has followed him no matter what, to the branch of a tree, then rub his hands, carry a hoe, and lead people to start moving countless big rocks, and then move the big rocks  Put them into woven rattan baskets and throw baskets of large rocks into the crevice.

    Many tired and haggard victims, after a brief hesitation, began to come to help.

    With Zhu Houzhao and Fang Jifan, although they were not very full, they suddenly saw hope of rebuilding their home!

    So hundreds of thousands of people were on the river bank, carrying earth and rocks. The impact of the river was not small, and the current was turbulent. Once an unwary person fell into the water, no one would be seen again. Zhu Houzhao would always nervously look back at the branches of the tree.  Zhu Xiaorong was afraid that she would sneak down the tree and accidentally fall into the water.

    "This is His Highness the Crown Prince."

    People are whispering, and many people don¡¯t believe it. The victims even think that this group of uninvited guests is a group of self-proclaimed kings!

    The year before last, the Lingqiu County government took several such people and claimed to be the Emperor of the Song Dynasty. They also named some princes, prime ministers, queens, noble concubines, chief ministers, and generals.

    Such a prince, if it were normal times, would have been kidnapped and sent to an official.

    But now, everyone has a tacit understanding not to do this, and there is not even the slightest objection from this group of people who are most likely to be chaotic parties.

    They think that His Highness the Crown Prince is not a bad person, and he is also a good hand at farm work, but what a pity!  Some people whispered, why do you do such a good thing?  This young man is so energetic. He has a daughter to marry him, and when the famine is over, with his strength, he can rent fifty acres of land.

    Sometimes Zhu Houzhao would sit on the river embankment and look into the distance, but what he was thinking about was still the group of bandits.

    People love to be with this prince, so if you are a rebel, just rebel. Now that we are suffering from a disaster, everyone is in danger and about to starve to death. Who cares whether you are a rebel or not?

    Naturally, Zhu Houzhao also heard various rumors about the mountain king.

    Except for hunting tigers, dozens of officers and soldiers cannot get close. It is said that he is also very good with bows and horses. It is said that he was born in a wealthy family in the past and learned a good skill. However, his family suffered a lawsuit and he ended up being a bandit.

    Since then, it has not only been Lingqiu County, but also the Datong area.

    "Heh, I really want to meet you for a while."

    Zhu Houzhao¡¯s eyes shone with interest, and he was very passionate about this group of thieves. He was sharpening his sword.

    "Our Lingqiu County relies on Datong Prefecture. My dear, please think about it. There are border troops everywhere here, but this person can dominate the Datong and Lingqiu areas. It shows how powerful this person is"

    On the third day, the grain team finally arrived. Just to be cautious, the first batch of grain shipped was only seven or eight carts!

    Once the food arrived, the urgent need was temporarily relieved. Although people were still dying in the past few days, people began to feel hopeful after burying their dead and unable to hide their grief.

    ????????????????????????????????????"p; Behind the scenes, young and strong victims shouted: "What are you afraid of? Let's fight with the thieves together with our benefactors."

    "Yes, let's fight!"

    ? One voice after another, responding in the darkness.

    They may not know what the way of a saint is, but in fact, they also have the way in their hearts. This way is nothing more than conscience. For this conscience and to repay their kindness, they still have the courage to face danger.

    Da da da¡­¡­

    There was the sound of horse hooves outside.

    Fang Jifan leaned against the earthen wall and listened.

    The long dragon-like torches are enough to prove how powerful the thieves are, but the sound of horse hooves does not seem to be noisy. It seems that only one person is riding towards here.

    Suddenly, the sound of horse hooves stopped, and someone jumped off the horse.

    The opponent was already behind the earth wall, and everyone held their breath, but in an instant, there was a bang, and it seemed that there was some force, and it hit the earth wall hard. This earth wall was not very familiar, and the opponent's strength  , obviously very large, and the earth wall that was not tamped solid enough, this first shoddy project built by His Highness himself, fell apart in an instant

    A huge black shadow appeared behind the earth wall.

    Just when everyone is disgraced.

    The black shadow shouted: "May I ask where Fang Jifan is?"

    "" Why me?

    Fang Jifan doesn¡¯t quite understand. He is still a child.

    ??Okay, Fang Jifan felt that he could not give in: "What kind of thief is here? Someone is coming"

    The huge black shadow knelt down in an instant, but even when he knelt down, he was actually taller than many people standing: "Meet my benefactor!"
