Chapter 116: Beggars

Out of King Rong's mansion, Jia Quan'er greeted him.

Jia Rudao did not get into the sedan chair directly, but sent the sedan chair driver who came with him to wander around. Jia Quan'er didn't know what was going on, but she didn't dare to ask more, and followed behind.

When I was in King Rong's Mansion, I didn't feel it, but when I left King Rong's Mansion, Jia Rudao thought about the whole process in King Rong's Mansion, and I felt more and more that what King Rong was doing today was too strange.

The traces of artificiality are too obvious.

If King Rong specifically wants to humiliate him, there is no need to send someone to the mansion to invite him to King Rong's mansion to handle the handover of the Nalaoshzi Detective Division. Since he sent someone to invite him, it means that King Rong really plans to handle this handover for him today.

So what caused King Rong to change his mind temporarily?

When Zhao Yun first said the Detective Division, he didn't mention Yuan Jing at all. If Zhao Yun knew the truth, it was obviously impossible not to tell him. So in other words, Yuan Jing is a person who was temporarily pulled in by King Rong.

However, then again, if Zhao Yun really didn't know what to say and didn't agree, then Zhao and Rui would definitely not be able to put the staff in their own house into the Detective Department.

So, the ultimate reason for Zhao Yourui's attitude is because of Zhao Yun? Qiao Xingjian may have only played a little role in fueling the troubles, but the key seems to be Zhao Yun himself.

Beat? Checks and balances?

Is the Emperor's Mind Trick......

Jia Rudao smiled self-deprecatingly.

……

On the royal street, people come and go, and it is still so lively.

With the end of Meng Hui's assassination, the imperial court's blockade near Lin'an City, which lasted for nearly 20 days, was finally lifted, and all the imperial troops also returned to their garrisons, water and land transportation was smooth again, and there were more and more people in Lin'an City.

In fact, there is another reason why Jia Rudao doesn't know the way, that is, the Dragon Boat Festival is approaching, and the Oiran Contest in Lin'an City has already started the white-hot rehearsal stage in advance.

But soon, Jia Rudao found that there was a big difference from the street and the past.

Although there are more people on the streets nowadays, it is more lively. But when he went out to wander the first few times, he couldn't say that the people he saw were all well-dressed, at least they were all clean and neat.

But today, after walking less than a few hundred steps, he saw at least a hundred beggars in tattered clothes, walking through the crowd with rag sacks, or huddled in the dark corners of the street with broken bowls in front of them, waiting for alms.

These people, including men and women, old and young, and even the picture of four generations of the old, middle-aged, young and young who dragged their families came out to beg in the same house.

Seeing the old and the young coming over, Jia Rudao turned around and said to Jia Quan'er behind him, "Give them some silver." ”

"Childe, I can't give it anymore." Jia Quan'er objected to Jia Nidao's decision for the first time, and he had already listened to Jia Nidao's words and gave no less than a dozen beggars a few handfuls of scattered copper.

"Childe, it's not that the little ones don't want to give. But you always look at it, you have given too much copper along the way, and now those beggars are staring at us. If you give more money, I'm afraid that these beggars will gather around to ask for silver. Their eyes are lit up, beggars. ”

Seeing that Jia Rudao's complexion was about to change, Jia Quan'er hurriedly explained.

Looking back, Jia Rudao found that as Jia Quan'er said, the beggars who were originally scattered in the crowd and huddled in the corner didn't know when they all got up and were staring at him with faint eyes.

Pedestrians on the street confronted these beggars, although there were also people who threw some copper, but most of them immediately covered their noses and avoided after throwing copper. Like a snake and a scorpion.

"Why are there so many beggars in the city all of a sudden?"

Jia Rudao seemed to be asking Jia Quan'er, and seemed to be talking to himself.

"Childe, give me something to eat. Save the kids. ”

Sure enough, the goal of the big family to help the old and the young is Jia Yidao. Approaching Jia Rudao and bowing was an old man with a white beard, and behind him there were two people with dark faces who couldn't tell their appearance and age at all, and could only see from their body size that they were a man and a woman.

I guess it's a couple.

In the arms of the slender woman was a very thin child who looked no more than two or three years old.

At this moment, the child's dark, dim eyes were looking at Jia Yidao in a daze, and those eyes that should have been bright were like a pool of stagnant water, without any life.

Jia Rudao, who wanted to turn around and leave, knew that he was hungry.

"Jia Quan'er, give this old man some silver." Looking at those lifeless eyes, Jia Rudao whispered to Jia Quan'er.

Although he can't be regarded as a good person through and through, and of course he never thinks he is a good person, but he can't watch this child, who is only two or three years old, starve to death on the streets.

"Childe......" Jia Rudao looked around, and his face couldn't help but change.

"Silver!"

"Thank you, Childe! Thank you, Childe! If the old man's family can survive, they will definitely burn incense and pray for the son's blessings every day, and thank the son for his great kindness! The old man here had already knelt on the ground with the three people behind him, and he was very grateful.

"It doesn't have to be like this, old man, hurry up." Unexpectedly, the old man actually made such a big gift to himself directly, and Jia Rudao hurriedly supported the old man.

The old man wiped his tears and clenched the pieces of broken silver handed over by Jia Quan'er, he didn't know what to say, he felt that the only thing he could do seemed to be to give such a big gift to this brocade-clothed boy.

"With the accent of the old man, he is also from Lin'an, right? Why did the family fall into such ......?"

"Childe, let's go!"

Jia Quan'er shouted with a little anxiety and interrupted Jia Rudao's next words.

Jia Rudao looked up in surprise, and saw that a large group of beggars who were still watching around had already surrounded him with broken bowls and sacks, but most of the green eyes were on Jia Quan'er, to be precise, on the money bag on Jia Quan'er's waist.

"Childe, give me some......"

"Give me some......"

The pedestrians on the interface panicked around to avoid these beggars who suddenly erupted like wolves and tigers, and looked at the two masters and servants of Jia Rudao who suddenly fell into the group of beggars with some pity.

It's not like I've never seen such a thing, once there are stunned young people who give alms to those beggars too many times at a time, there will always be such a thing. Fortunately, there were only so many beggars on the street, but now, there are more than a hundred or so beggars just by this visual effort. Not to mention that there were other beggars farther away who were rushing to hear the news.

"Spread out! Get out of here! ”

The sudden scene made the old man's family of three stunned on the spot, not knowing what to do. Seeing Jia Yidao and Jia Quan'er being swept away by a large wave of beggars, I could only hear Jia Quan'er shouting angrily and with a little horror.

"Don't do this, let Eungong go......"

"Old thing, bring the silver!"

The old man who came back to his senses tried his best to rush in and pull Jia Yidao out, but to those wolf-like beggars, he was just a small leaf in the sea, and he staggered back. Not only did he not be saved, but because of his voice, he attracted the attention of other beggars who were strong but did not squeeze into the inner circle.

Several strong men in tattered clothes rushed over and knocked the old man to the ground, and even a pair of children with the old man were also killed by the pond fish because of the rescue of the old man, and the clothes on their bodies were torn to tatters.

A dazzling snow white suddenly appeared from the tattered clothes, making the eyes of several strong men who saw this scene green in victory.
