Chapter 1260: Military Food in the Floating City

Wang Mingxuan's situation was similar to Jingyang's. There were slightly fewer wounds, but his eyes were not much better.

Just as Wang Mingxuan was about to speak, he saw Jingyang burrowing his head into Shangguan Ruoli's arms, sobbing loudly, and hearing the sobs made people feel sad.

Shangguan Ruoli and Dongming Ziyu looked at each other, and they both saw doubts in each other's eyes.

Wang Mingxuan suddenly knelt on the ground and said, "Prince and concubine, it's not a big deal, it's just that we feel bad."

Shangguan Ruoli hurriedly helped Wang Mingxuan up, "What's going on?"

Dongming Ziyu said coldly: "Say! You bitches, why are you crying?!"

Wang Mingxuan almost cried, "We burned the food and grass in the floating city."

Hearing this, Shangguan Ruoli frowned even more tightly, "Wouldn't it be better to burn it? You have made great achievements, why do you seem to have made a mistake?"

Jingyang calmed down and struggled out of Shangguan Ruoli's arms, saying: "After we burned down the granary in Fucheng, we felt that there was too little food, so we looked around to see if there was anything else..."

At this point, he held his chest and retched.

Wang Mingxuan continued what he said: "We saw that they secretly arrested all the old, weak, women and children in the city, slaughtered them like animals, marinated them with coarse salt, and made them into military rations!"

"What?" Shangguan Ruoli's eyes widened instantly. He felt a rumble in his head and his legs became a little weak.

She had heard about cannibalism during times of famine, but she never expected to encounter this situation.

The hairs all over her body stood up when she heard it, not to mention that Jingyang saw it with his own eyes?

His little mind must have received a huge impact.

Jingyang retched for a while, but his eyes were empty. He didn't know what to say or what to do, and his mind went blank.

Dongming Ziyu didn't look surprised, and gently held Shangguan Ruoli and Jingyang in his arms.

He said softly to Jingyang: "You have too little experience after all. This kind of behavior in Floating City has almost become a routine in disaster years. Not to mention in the army, it is also common for people to exchange their children for food."

Shangguan Ruoli was also well-informed, and quickly calmed down, patting Jingyang on the shoulder, "If you feel that those people are pitiful, then cheer up and destroy them. We are not everything."

Are you ready?"

After listening to Shangguan Ruoli's words, Jingyang just nodded mechanically.

Dongming Ziyu glanced at Wang Mingxuan and others, and then said: "You have been running around for days, and you are quite tired. Let's go wash up and eat something first, and then go to the wounded barracks to look at the injuries on your body."

His voice was low, cold and indifferent, but it carried an unquestionable dignity.

Everyone agreed and retreated.

Shangguan Ruoli pulled the pale Jingyang into the room and stretched out his hand to undress him.

If it were normal, this young and mature guy would have blushed and run away, saying seriously that men and women should not kiss each other.

But today, this boy just stood there with dull eyes, letting Shangguan Ruoli strip him naked.

The hot water was ready. Dongming Ziyu picked up Jingyang and said softly to Shangguan Ruoli: "Prepare the medicine and I will prescribe it for him."

Shangguan Ruoli nodded with a solemn look on his face.

Dongming Ziyu carried Jingyang into the clean room and put him into the steaming tub.

Jingyang suddenly woke up when he felt the heat. When he saw Dongming Ziyu bathing him, tears flowed out. He hugged Dongming Ziyu with his young arms and said, "Father, are we wrong?"

If they hadn't come to attack Nanyun, if they hadn't imposed an economic blockade on Nanyun, there wouldn't have been cannibalism, right?

Dongming Ziyu knew what he was thinking, and while untying his burnt hair, he said: "One general will become famous and his bones will wither, not only referring to the lives of soldiers, but also those innocent people. Nanyun has been experiencing civil strife for many years.

The people have long been in dire straits, and it’s not like we’ve come here to eat people.”

Jingyang looked at Dongming Ziyu, his big eyes full of painful tears, "But, I feel uncomfortable in my heart."

Dongming Ziyu picked up the water ladle and poured water on his little body, "Then let's conquer Nanyun as soon as possible so that the people can live a life without worries about food and clothing."

Jingyang nodded, "They have imprisoned many people, let's go over and rescue them!"

Dongming Ziyu saw that he had recovered a lot of energy, so of course he agreed, "Okay, I will ask your mother and concubine to give you medicine later, and I will make arrangements."

Jingyang nodded, with a thoughtful look on his face. After a while, he asked: "The old and weak, women and children were made into military rations, and the young and strong were sent to the army. Aren't they very likely to eat the flesh of their relatives?"

Dongming Ziyu nodded, "I will have people spread the news in the military camp in Floating City."

Most soldiers are still humane and would not eat human flesh knowingly.

Jingyang was injured, so he was not allowed to soak for too long. After he was cleaned, he was taken out.

Shangguan Ruoli's face was still ugly. He took Jingyang and held him in his arms, sighing in distress.

Dongming Ziyu held the mother and son in his arms, "I will definitely destroy these things that are inferior to beasts so that the people can live and work in peace and contentment. Then, what we do will be worth it. If you want to do something for the people who died,

What, then become my right-hand man!"

Shangguan Ruoli knew that what he said so "highly" was to enlighten his son, so he cooperated and said: "Okay, the most important thing now is to take care of Jingyang's body and face."

It can be said that the husband and wife are good at guiding each other, and finally saw a glimmer of light on Jingyang's face.

Dongming Ziyu gave Shangguan Ruoli a look and went out to get busy.

Shangguan Ruoli put Jingyang on the bed and took out the silver needle, "I have to pop the blisters on your body and then apply medicine."

"Ah!" Jingyang belatedly realized that he was naked. He screamed, covered his little penis, and said with a blushing face: "Mother, concubine, let others come, men and women are not allowed to kiss."

Shangguan Ruoli smiled, his son finally became normal.

"You're only a six-year-old kid with a lot of problems!" He said, taking a silver needle, he poked the blisters on his face first.

Jingyang's face turned red and sullen, and he said in a helpless and preaching tone: "Concubine, I am seven years old. It is said that men and women do not sit at the same table at seven years old. You must not ignore it from now on."

Shangguan Ruoli also responded solemnly: "Okay, my concubine will pay attention to it in the future. But now that you are injured, you should treat your concubine as a doctor. There is no male or female in the doctor's eyes."

Jingyang: "..."

It seems right, Doctor Bai and Big Sister said the same thing.

Shangguan Ruoli snickered, he was still a child, so easy to fool.

Jingyang was exhausted and had many injuries on his body, so he fell asleep before he could finish taking care of them.

But his sleep was not comforting. Although he was enlightened on the surface, the fear and uneasiness in his subconscious were still there.
