Chapter 41 When you come here, isn’t this capital your territory?

Tears shone in Jin Yan's eyes. She was not easily moved, but when it came to matters like human rights, she couldn't help it.

Jiang Yan was also rarely serious and told her very firmly.

"You only saw that the woman sold the child with a bag of grain, but you didn't know that their family could live longer because of it, and that the child could live no matter what happened to him in the hands of others."

"But if we don't sell it, this family will have no choice but to die."

The people are suffering these days, and there are many people selling their children and daughters, not because they can no longer survive.

The woman didn't even dare to recognize her anymore. This was also the rule. Since she had done this business, she had to make a clean break.

Jin Yan felt extremely uncomfortable, "I understand everything you said, but it's really uncomfortable for me to watch."

Jiang Yan touched her head and said, "I know you are very kind. I didn't let you save those people because I was afraid that you would be in danger."

Although these people are pitiful, there must be something hateful about them.

He didn't look down on people who were selling their children. At least they were serious about making a living, and the mother was trying her best to find a better place for her daughter.

But the kind of person who doesn't resist anything and just waits for death on the spot, isn't he just taking a chance?

They always feel that they can wait for charity from kind-hearted people on the roadside, they can even steal or rob, and they can still chew trees when they have nothing left. Why bother leaving here and trekking across mountains and rivers.

Such people don't know how disgusting things are hidden deep in their hearts. Maybe they are pitiful on the surface, but secretly they have the intention to harm others.

Jin Yan could only accept that it was true that the local legal system was not complete yet, and human life was almost equal to that of an animal in everyone's eyes.

When you are unable to protect yourself, not reacting is indeed the right choice.

If she still can't listen to Jiang Yan's advice, then she is really mentally ill.

"I see."

The closer they got to the capital, the more people there were on the road. Jiang Yan said that these people were all fleeing, but it was impossible to open the city gate and would only lock them out.

And they did not want to stay in this capital, but because this place is at the feet of the emperor. Even if the emperor does not appease them, the ladies from aristocratic families and dignitaries in the city will set up soup kitchens.

It's just for food and clothing.

When the emperor remembered it, they would definitely be the first ones to be accommodated. Anyway, the idea was that those closest to the water would be first to get the moon.

"But in this case, how are we going to get in?"

Jiang Yan looked at the situation outside the carriage. Because their horse was so strong, anyone with a discerning eye would know at a glance that it was not easy to mess with.

He looked over at the city gate and said, "Follow me."

There are really many people near the city gate. Although there are many porridge sheds set up, they are only a drop in the bucket.

It's not the time to serve porridge yet, and there are already many people surrounding it.

Reluctantly, the two had no choice but to abandon the carriage and go inside.

"Sir, please be alright, we haven't had enough to eat for several days."

"Yes, my child is fainting from hunger. Please help me, please let us in!"

Xue Changyi looked at these people with cold eyes, and swung his spear to scare away an old man, "Everyone, please calm down! This is not a place for you to make trouble. If anyone dares to come forward, I will kill them under the city!"

Although Xue Changyi is the son of the Taifu, he has been practicing martial arts since he was a child. Now he is also the top leader in the military camp. His aura is not comparable to that of ordinary people.

This frightened the people around him into silence, and as expected, no one dared to come over.

Xue Changyi looked at this place with satisfaction, and was about to go back when he suddenly noticed a person walking not far away. The person's figure was very familiar, and he looked a bit like...

His eyes instantly froze, and his hand involuntarily clenched the spear.

"General."

Xue Changyi came to his senses immediately, quickly called the people next to him, and lowered his head to give some instructions.

When people came over, he immediately called for people to surround him, and then walked forward with an uneasy heart, "Your Majesty the Ninth Prince!"

Jiang Yan looked at him. Even though he had been in Dafan Kingdom for many years, his royal majesty did not diminish at all.

He stretched out his hand and said, "General Xue, I didn't expect to see you here."

Xue Changyi also looked at him in disbelief, "The general didn't expect to see His Highness here."

Jin Yan looked at the strange conversation between the two and couldn't help but take another look at Xue Changyi. For some reason, he just felt that this man was too excited.

Is it because he came back after a narrow escape that he was surprised?

"Your Highness, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is on the tower, please go up with me, General!"

Jiang Yan nodded and entered the city gate with Jin Yan surrounded by a group of people.

The gates of this capital city were different. They were very high and very strong. When Jin Yan stepped forward, he didn't even think it was a wall.

It's really like the Great Wall. This city wall even looks like a building.

She followed them up and felt a little uneasy when she saw the soldiers along the way.

I don’t know why I’m still a little nervous.

Xue Changyi led them into a room. In the center of the room stood a gorgeous and graceful man.

He looks to be in his twenties, and somewhat similar to Jiang Yan.

"Nine Emperors Brother!"

"Your Highness the Crown Prince."

Jiang Yun looked at the unfamiliar Jiang Yan in front of him, his eyes instantly turned red, "You, are you really Jiang Yan?"

He suddenly became excited and almost cried.

It was so sincere that Jin Yan got goosebumps a little bit when he saw it.

She didn't have any brothers or sisters since she was a child, so she didn't know if this was a normal relationship, so even though she felt very uncomfortable, she didn't bother them.

Jiang Yan pursed his lips and looked a little moved, "Brother Prince, maybe you have forgotten me after so many years."

"How could I forget you kid? You don't know that Gulang City was attacked that day. I was really heartbroken in the capital." Jiang Yun patted his shoulder. The two brothers had endless things to say when they reunited after a long absence.

"Oh, by the way, who is this?"

Jiang Yun looked at Jin Yan who was standing there, and some different emotions flashed in his eyes.

Jiang Yan immediately introduced, "The emperor's brother is safe and sound this time, thanks to Miss Jin's help."

Jiang Yan couldn't be too affectionate with Jin Yan in front of outsiders, so he could only call her a girl.

Jiang Yun nodded immediately, "I see, that Gu Ke must be thanked very much. Come on, please take Miss Jin down to have a rest first. If you need anything, just tell me."

Jin Yan smiled on her face. She definitely couldn't stay here any longer in this situation. She might as well leave first. The brothers were catching up on old times, so what did she do here?

She gave an irregular salute and said, "Thank you, Your Highness."

Jiang Yan watched her leave, feeling a little uneasy for some reason.

He hurried over to hold the person and whispered a few words, "Don't be afraid when you enter the capital for the first time. His Royal Highness is kind-hearted. If you encounter anything, just say it. I will come to find you later."

.”

Jin Yan looked at him blankly, and found a trace of uneasiness in Jiang Yan's eyes. She immediately smiled and said, "I'm definitely not afraid. Isn't this capital your territory now?"
