It's a pity that these desperate civilians are doomed to disappointment, as the court has yet to come up with a concrete plan for disaster relief silver taels.
At least Gu Chengyu has not received the court's carrier pigeon message about the matter since arriving in Jiangnan.
"All civilians from Changtian Prefecture are to retreat two miles away immediately, without any errors! Anyone who defies this order will be killed without mercy!"
Gu Chengyu's cold voice echoed outside the city gates, matched with Ding Shiliu and the others' menacing appearance, making the civilians shudder like cicadas in winter.
The entire scene was silent enough to hear a pin drop, some civilians secretly swallowed, their bodies slowly moving backward.
In truth, where were they willing to back away? If they moved away from Hangtian Prefecture, Hangtian Prefecture would never again care whether they lived or died.
