Chapter 873 Tomb Sweeping during Qingming

Chapter 873

In the season of Qingming, the rain pours, making travelers on the road heartsick.

This year's Qingming had no rain, yet the souls of Chang'an City's civilians had already departed.

In the early morning, when dawn just began to break, the medicine peddler Pi San, leaning on a crutch, took a piece of yellow paper and stepped out of his house.

When the Rong Clan attacked, he was conscripted by the Empire to defend the city, performing the arduous tasks of moving stones and transporting arrows. Just as conscription was carried out in the countryside by the Rong Clan, the same was done within the city. Every household had its share of conscription quotas.
