The boat did not let go of its sails, but drifted along the river with the flowing water, entered the Han River from the Malan River, and finally came to the gate of Xiangyang Mansion in the third evening. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

It was not the first time Liu Yuanshan had come, but what he saw after coming to Xiangyang this time shocked him even more than the last time.

Last time, there were only a few hungry people on the street who were on their knees begging, but this time, there were at least hundreds of begging homeless people on one main street.

And that's just a refugee on a street in Xiangyang Province.

"Why are there so many victims?" Liu Yuanshan asked.

The one who led the way was an agent of the Liu family, who followed behind Liu Yuanshan, frowned and said: "Young master doesn't know, this is all from Shaanxi, this year's drought is not harvested, and the people are almost unable to survive." ”

"Alas......" Liu Yuanshan sighed slightly: "Heaven and earth are not benevolent, and all things are used as dogs!" The people of these places are also pitiful. ”

"Pity is pitiful, but young master should also be careful!"

"How?" Liu Yuanshan turned his head and looked at the agent and asked.

"These people can't beg for anything in the city, chickens and dogs are all evil, and the people on the border of Xiangyang are very annoying." While leading the way, the agent explained: "Since the spring of this year, two large waves of displaced people have come to the Han River, and after hearing that they arrived in Yun County, they killed the local county order, you don't know, now Yun County is full of bandits, and they are all in chaos." ”

"Doesn't the court ask?" Liu Yuanshan looked up at the dark street, as if he was asking the agent, as if he was asking himself, and asking the sky.

"Ask!" The agent hurriedly explained: "The armies of the imperial court are all in the north and west, and they have to defend the Tartars and exterminate the rebels in the west, so they don't have time or care." Some time ago, Zheng Zhixian in Yun County was killed by those homeless bandits, and the governor sent a Zhang Zhixian to suppress the bandits. ”

"Why did you let the bandits suppress it?" Liu Yuanshan asked curiously.

"I was killed by bandits, alas, in the future, no matter who the governor sends to Yunxian, he can't send it, so that now it's a mess there."

"Master and young master, it's okay, give me something to eat!"

A few people walked on the street, and naturally they were inevitably entangled by those begging Shaanxi people.

"Go, go, go, get out of the way, don't get in the way!" It was obviously not the first time that the agent had encountered such a situation, and decisively blasted those people away.

Liu Yuanshan couldn't bear it, and waved his hand: "Slow!" ”

"Liu Da, give them ...... Forehead......" At this gesture of raising his hand, almost all the refugees around him got up and looked at him.

Liu Yuanshan was so frightened that he hurriedly gave up, if he let these people surround him, he wouldn't want to leave this street today, he came to Xiangyang Mansion for the sake of the savior, not the current street full of refugees.

Besides, even if each person is given a few copper plates, it is not used, and it is just a matter of living one more day and one less day.

"Go to the front to open the way, go to the inn to rest, and I have to do business early tomorrow morning!" Swallowing the words that came to his lips, Liu Yuanshan waved his hand at Liu Dayi and asked him to go to the front to disperse all the refugees.

More than a dozen strong subordinates opened the way, and there was no danger on the way. After walking on the street for a quarter of an hour, I was led by the agent to a rather upscale inn.

"This is the Immortal Residence, it is the best inn in our Xiangyang realm, can Young Master Liu rest here at night?" The agent looked at Liu Yuanshan with a stammering expression.

Liu Yuanshan nodded and said, "You bothered, thank you!" With that, he led the people inside. One should eat and stay, and naturally the agent will pay for it.

"This is much more upscale than the Hanjiang Inn!" After Liu Yuanshan finished eating, he arranged for Liu Da and others to stay, and he also entered the room.

When she came to Xiangyang, she didn't have any clue, although she didn't know who to ask to solve the problem, but she vaguely remembered that Wang Xiucai had a friend named Sun Miaoqing, and the relationship between the two should be extraordinary. This Sun family is also a tyrant in Xiangyang Mansion, and it should be useful to find them and inquire about the way.

However, it was getting late today, and it would be rude to visit again, so we had to wait until dawn the next day.

……

After breakfast the next day, Liu Yuanshan prepared a generous gift and took two subordinates to visit Sun's house.

The Sun family received him, and it was naturally Sun Miaoqing.

"Brother Wang's affairs, I am also very concerned!" Sun Miaoqing is not a pretentious person, and said bluntly: "I don't have a temporary friendship with him, with my understanding of him, he shouldn't be cheating, but at that time, there was all the evidence, and the handwriting was written by him, so I couldn't say anything." ”

"I have already communicated with my uncle, hoping that he can be rescued, and now the governor Yamen has also replied, saying that Brother Wang will not worry about his life, but will stay in prison for a while, and I am afraid that his reputation will not be saved!"

"Oh!" Liu Yuanshan breathed a sigh of relief again, made a deep bow to Sun Miaoqing, and said sincerely: "Thank you so much, Master Sun, Liu Yuanshan is grateful." ”

As a classmate and friend, Sun Miaoqing can be said to have done her best to do this.

"Don't dare to be!" Sun Miaoqing stepped forward to help Liu Yuanshan up: "You also have a heart, Brother Wang also mentioned your talent to me that day, I was a pity for a long time at the time, Brother Wang didn't accept you as a disciple in vain, it's good." ”

"You go back and wait for good news, I think it will be a year at most, or three or five months at the least, and Brother Wang will definitely be released from prison!"

"Ahh Liu Yuanshan was taken aback when he heard his words, and said, "Isn't it okay, it will take so long?" No, no, my teacher is a scholar, and his body is not very good, how can he stay in that kind of dirty place for three or five months? ”

Liu Yuanshan was about to kneel, but was stopped by Sun Miaoqing's eyes.

"Master Sun, San Lang begs you to think of a way, otherwise, you give me a trick, I will open up the joints, even if San Lang and I are bankrupt, I will definitely rescue my teacher." As Liu Yuanshan spoke, he lowered his head and touched his eyelashes with saliva, making him look wet.

Life is like a play, it all depends on acting skills.

When he raised his head, not only were the corners of his eyes moist, but the circles under his eyes were magically red.

"Alas......" Sun Miaoqing shook her head, sighed deeply, and said, "Brother Wang has a disciple like you, I really envy others!" Maybe later, I'll write you a list, you take my prayer post, and look for the people on the list one by one, maybe you can help Brother Wang get out in advance. However, if you go inside this yamen, whether you are justified or not, it costs a lot of money. ”

"Don't worry, this old man!" Liu Yuanshan patted his chest: "San Lang, I came with all my family property, I said, no matter how bankrupt my family is, as long as I save my teacher from the sea of suffering!" ”
