Chapter 879 (2/2)
Now, Ji Fengyan’s arrival had given them hope. A hope that allowed them to fight against their fate.
It was as if Fu Guang City would never be defeated as long as they had Ji Fengyan.
It was exactly this hope that allowed the usually self-serving residents to cast aside their selfish attitudes and start contributing to their city.
After a short while, Linghe came rushing back. Zuo Nuo had come along, and they carried a huge case between them. Panting, they came before Ji Fengyan.
“Miss, we have brought the things you asked for.” Linghe smiled as he opened the case.
Inside was packed full of yellow beans.
The men working on the walls had also stretched out their necks to look. They couldn’t help feeling curious as they watched Linghe and Zuo Nuo carry over a case of yellow beans.
Just as they were being perplexed, Ji Fengyan lifted her chin at Linghe and Zuo Nuo, indicating that they were to transport the case up upon the wall.
The two men complied. The people on the walls also lent them a hand.
“Brother Ling, why did our queen have you bring these beans up here? These… can’t be eaten…” A grimy-faced man looked in wonder at Linghe.
Linghe purposely gave a mysterious smile and patted him on the shoulder. “Brother, just wait and see.”
With that, he and Zuo Nuo dumped the whole case of yellow beans from the highest point of the city walls!
