Chapter 37: Rapid Change
It's also winter, Kunwu is dressed in a single coat, and there is not even a cotton coat in the stone cart, which is even colder than outside. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
"Why don't you wear more on such a cold day?" Chen Xiu said, looked at his body again, it was not too thick, and saw that Yuan Cong was actually wearing a cotton robe, "You go back and wear another one." As he spoke, he grabbed Yuan Cong, pulled off his robe and handed it to Kunwu.
The clothes were stripped off, and Yuan Cong was shivering from the cold, but he couldn't say anything if Chen Xiu took it, so he only shrank his head and feet to increase the heat.
The robe still carried the heat from Yuan Cong's body, so he approached Kunwu, and was snatched by the child before he could hand it in. "It's too hot." The child said.
"Big brother!" Chen Xiu looked at Kun Wu and saw that he didn't look cold, and then looked at the carriage, and it was clear that it was much colder inside than outside, and said in his heart, could it be that there was something that couldn't see heat? Peeked at Kunwu's expression again, and when they met again after a long absence, he didn't show a trace of affection. Is it deliberately denying me? Or amnesia that no one remembers?
Kun Wu nodded slightly at Chen Xiu, with no sadness or joy on his face, "Little brother." ”
His 'little brother' shouted without warmth, Chen Xiu frowned, and finally didn't give up, "Big brother!" You still recognize me, do you? ”
"Yes." Kungo replied, "It's just a matter of people. ”
Changed? Chen Xiu's heart was cold, "The third brother died in battle, Chen Guo died in the country, you didn't suffer at all?" ”
"The cycle of life and death, the way of heaven is like this."
The cycle of life and death? Chen Xiu smiled bitterly, "What is the Dao of Heaven?" ”
Kungo didn't answer.
Yuan Cong on the side saw that Kun Wu refused to wear it, and stepped forward to snatch the robe from the child's hand and put it on, Chen Xiu was depressed and looked at Yuan Cong coldly. Yuan Cong smiled, "He also refuses to wear it, and it just so happens that I am also cold." ”
"Where's the 'Don't Ask'?" The child asked.
Chen Ming was indifferent, as if he was a withdrawn and indifferent person talking to a stranger. Chen Xiu couldn't react for a while, and he didn't know whether to cry or laugh. Looking at this child's fake and serious appearance, he couldn't help but burst into tears and laughter, and scolded with a smile, "They adults who have read a lot can just talk like this, why do you talk like this as a child?" ”
"Please let 'Don't Ask' come out and see you." The child still had no expression.
"Good! What a good boy! I'm afraid you were born like this! Chen Xiu smiled bitterly, "What's your name?" ”
"I don't know." The child said.
Yuan Cong saw that Chen Xiu and the people in the car were talking indifferently, and looked at Chen Xiu's wry expression, and said in his heart that this person was not a friend, and he said to the kid politely, "What do you know?" Don't even know the name? ”
Chen Xiuke still remembers, Dai Yiming said that he met two people, and this child just followed the 'don't ask' 'don't know', "If you want to see it, just wait!" Chen Xiu said, and when he spoke, he peeked at Kunwu's reaction, but saw that he still didn't care about himself. Chen Xiu didn't let them in, obviously trying to provoke Chen Ming to be angry, but he didn't react when he saw him!
Chen Xiu's agitation didn't provoke Chen Ming, but he choked himself with anger, and said helplessly, "Okay, okay!" Come on in! ”
"No, we're waiting." 'I don't know'.
Chen Xiu was angry and had no choice, so he asked Yuan Cong to shout and not ask. But after a long time, he didn't ask to come out, and when he saw Kun Wu running out with his hem open, he hugged his fists and saluted, "Childe!" ”
Kungo Road. "How's it going?"
"The disaster situation is stable, but the cold winter is coming." The price of rice is too high for the people to support, and most of them rely on porridge sheds for disaster relief. ”
"That's it!" Yuan Cong also answered, "Those rice merchants are all taking advantage of the fire to rob!" There is much more rice hidden in the private warehouse than in the official warehouse, but I just refuse to take it out! We even have granaries in the Quartet of Yunzhai, and now they have bottomed out! ”
"If the price of rice is suppressed, those people will not be profitable, I am afraid that even less rice will be transported to Taishang Lake, and rice will be more expensive." Don't ask and shake your head.
"How long can the grain and rice last?" Kungo Road.
"At this time, there is no green and yellow, and we have to get a steady stream of rice and grain, but there is no rice to help the country. Now the remaining rice grain lasts for half a month at most. ”
Before Kun Wu could speak, Chen Xiu jumped up in shock, "Half Moon?!" I've never heard of you. It doesn't change every day, every day. If there is less rice, you can give less! ”
"If there is an increase or decrease in rice grain, someone will be able to detect it. They knew that the grain and rice would run out, and the rice merchants would sit on the ground and raise the price. There will even be a snatch of rice and grain, which is uncontrollable at that time. "Don't ask.
"A month. Hold on for another month, and Merlot has already gone to Sanchuan to raise food. Kunwu said.
"What about the remaining half a month?" Chen Xiu said hurriedly.
Kungo suddenly coughed a few times, and his face was already blue.
"Big brother!" Chen Xiu was frightened, he didn't expect Chen Ming to be so sick, and he wanted to step forward, but was stopped by the child.
"Out of the way!" Kungo Road.
Don't ask to step forward and put down the heavy curtain, "Childe, please rest assured, how can you survive this half a month!" ”
Through the curtain, Kun Wu said again, "Where is the granary?" ”
"In Jiaoping, Zhang Ba is there." Don't ask.
Kungo said, "Sir, hard work. The child also nodded in greeting, the golden bell rang softly, and the white horse pulled the stone cart westward.
"What's wrong with him?"
"Old wounds." No questions and answers. Chen Xiu asked again, but he refused to say it again.
Chen Xiu didn't feel good in his heart, and when he saw that Kun Wu had left, he had to sigh. He was full of joy and thought that he would see Chen Ming, but he didn't expect that Chen Ming seemed to have amnesia. Look at it again and don't ask, "You said you have a way to survive the remaining half a month, how can you survive?" ”
"In the long run, of course, we have to follow the right path, but when we really can't help it, we can also take some demonic ways and use some intrigues." Without asking, he looked at Yuan Cong as he spoke, "I borrowed Yuan Cong from you for a few days." ”
Chen Xiu raised his eyes and didn't ask, seeing that he was mysterious and secretive, he knew that he wouldn't say anything even if he asked, so he simply didn't ask, "Borrow it!" Anyway, if there is no food, everyone will starve! ”
"I also want to ask you to see Zhu Mandao, and I have to ask the people of Lianyunzhai to help."
Chen Xiu looked at it again and didn't ask, nor did he speak, you are justified when you ask me for help, and you will hide it when I ask you a few questions. Holding his breath in his heart, he flicked his sleeves and pushed the wheelchair away. Bypassing the two streets, he inexplicably arrived at Zhu Mandao's residence again.
"Forget it, help him one more time. This time it's for my stomach. Chen Xiu said secretly, pushed the door in, and saw Geng Xiaoduo also sitting in the courtyard waiting.
Chen Xiu smiled and teased, "Why is it that our little master Geng also has time to wait at the door of people's homes?" "This 'little master' is very pronounced.
Knowing that it was ridicule, Geng Xiaoduo ignored him, and looked at Chen Xiu again, "What, what are you doing here?" ”
"Idle boredom." Chen Xiu said, and looked at Geng Xiaoduo again, "Do you know that there is a disease in the world that is very afraid of heat, and the kind that has to hold a piece of ice in winter?" ”
"Yes. But most of this disease is in the brain. ”
"Really? What disease? ”
Geng Xiaoduo looked at Chen Xiu and laughed out loud, "Crazy." ”
Chen Xiu snorted and slapped the wheelchair, "What is Zhu Mandao doing?" ”
"Of course, the second master has something to do, and he won't be as idle as you." As he spoke, he got up and said, "Second Master." ”
It turned out that Zhu Mandao had arrived.
"What time?" Zhu Mandao asked.
"Qiheng has arrived in Jiqu. The messenger has not yet arrived, three days later at the latest. ”
Chen Xiu didn't understand, "What are you talking about?" ”
Geng Xiaoduo said, "Wu surrendered, to return Qiheng, and to respect the little emperor who is now in Xinling as the Son of Heaven." Qiheng has been sent now, just waiting for Xianguo to send someone to pick it up. ”
"Send Qiheng back to the letter tomb? Isn't that tantamount to sending him to death? Chen Xiu got up and scolded.
"What are you going to do?"
"I don't know. But you can't watch him die. Chen Xiu said, pushing the wheelchair to go out. When I got to the door, I remembered what I was doing. Talking to Zhu Mandao about not asking about borrowing manpower from him, since it was a disaster relief, Zhu Mandao naturally agreed. (To be continued.) )
