Chapter Eighty-Nine: The Victims
The dishes were soon served, Elle looked at the dishes on the table, and kept scolding this boy in her heart, the people are crying out on the streets, but you are eating good food in the house, and you don't know how to give alms!
Elle didn't say these words, picked up the chopsticks and started!
Mu Xianyu hurried to Ruan Yuanwai's mansion in a hurry, and after looking for a long time, he found the house where Elle was! flew up to the roof of the building with light power, uncovered a few tiles, and what caught in front of me was Elle holding a big chicken leg gnawing!
If I knew you were doing so well here, I wouldn't have come to save you! Mu Xianyu thought secretly in his heart. He didn't immediately jump in to save Ellie, but watched from the rooftop, the more he thought about it, the more angry he became, watching Elle eat the food on the table so deliciously, but he could only watch!
At this time, although Ellie was eating the food on the table seriously, her heart was in a mess! Why haven't they come to save me, the old lady is about to be eaten and wiped clean by this lewd man! You won't forget me, will you?
"Little beauty, the meal is ready, let's do something serious, right?" When Elle ate the things on the table, Ruan Qinghao said to Elle with a look of desire. Ellie shook her head, her heart almost on the verge of collapse, what about people? Why hasn't anyone come to my rescue yet!
Ai Li showed an innocent smile to Ruan Qinghao and said, "Brother, shall we go outside to play?" You play hide and seek with me? ”
Ruan Qinghao was unwilling: "We don't go outside to play, let's go to bed to play!" As he spoke, he stretched out his "groping hand" and grabbed Ellie's arm and was about to walk to the bed. Ellie was frightened and didn't want to go to the bedside, Ruan Qinghao felt that something was not right at this moment!
"To put it bluntly, you're simply delaying my time, one moment saying that you're hungry and you want to eat, and the other you're going to play outside, what are you kidding me?!" Ruan Qinghao dragged Ellie to the side of the bed, pressed her under him, and was about to take off Ellie's clothes!
"Smack" Ruan Qinghao fainted on Ai Li's side, it was Mu Xianyu!
Elle hurriedly got up from the bed, tidied up her clothes, and then put her foot on Ruan Qinghao's lap and said, "Dare to be a thin old lady, shameless!" Disgusting, ugly, perverted! ”
"Let's go!" Mu Xianyu grabbed Ellie's hand and left the Yuanwai Mansion!
On the way back, Ai Li kept scolding that Ruan Qinghao, Mu Xianyu glanced at her with disgust: "Just like you, at most a dominatrix, I really don't know how that Young Master Ruan fell in love with you, and the little beauty、、、、、、 hey!" ”
Ai Li turned her head abruptly to look at Mu Xianyu and said, "How do you know that he calls me Little Beauty?" Oh! You've been eavesdropping, and you can't save yourself when you die, you're righteous enough! Twisted Mu Xianyu's ears and said indignantly.
"Sister, sister, let go, it hurts! Who said that if I don't save you when I die, I won't save you too! ”
"Dare to quibble!" Elle stepped up. Mu Xianyu said: "I won't quibble, let go, there are still people on the street!" ”
In order to maintain her image as a lady, Elle let go of Mu Xianyu!
Mu Xianyu childishly said to Ellie, "Hmph! With a sigh, she walked forward on her own, Ai Li was afraid of being robbed again, so she followed Mu Xianyu and asked, "Where are you going?" ”
"Where else can I go? I haven't paid for the noodles at noon today, so go back and settle the bill now! Mu Xianyu stopped and stretched out a hand in front of Ellie, who said, "What are you doing?" Mu Xianyu looked at Ellie's waist and said, "Give money!" ”
"You don't?" Ai Li said questioningly, Mu Xianyu covered the money bag on her waist and said, "I saved your life, you have to give me money to pay the bill!" "Ellie thought about it, forget it, for the sake of him protecting my innocence, just give him money!
Elle took out the money bag around her waist and asked, "How much?" Mu Xianyu thought for a while and said, "Eight taels of silver!" ”
"What are you robbing?! Eight taels of silver! Ai Li was about to pin the money bag back to her waist, Mu Xianyu quickly grabbed it, took out eight taels of silver from the money bag, and then threw the money bag back to Ai Li: "You are a princess of a country, you don't even give eight taels of silver, sooner or later you will be killed!" ”
Elle pinned the money bag back to her waist and was about to hit Mu Xianyu! Mu Xianyu ran away before Elle could make a move, and Elle was chasing after her!
After paying the bill, the two returned to the inn, and as soon as Shen Zili saw Ellie, she ran up to hug her and jumped and jumped excitedly!
After Shen Zili calmed down, Duanmu Shadow Owl asked, "Didn't you say that you were going to pay for the noodles?" Why did you save people back? Mu Xianyu coughed dryly twice and said, "I can't pay all the money for this bill!" She also ate it, and if I paid it all, wouldn't it be a loss?! ”
Mu Yanze held back a smile, and sure enough, as he expected, Mu Xianyu just went out to Aili, but in order to save his face, he said to go to the checkout! Ai Li came to Mu Xianyu, stretched out her hand, and said, "You took my eight taels of silver for the money you just paid, but you only gave the shopkeeper the actual amount of 500 Wen, I won't ask you for the 500 Wen, bring the remaining 4 taels of silver!" ”
"If you don't give it, you will lose the four taels of silver, I believe in you, you will not miss the four taels of silver!" Mu Xianyu tightly covered the money bag on his waist, lest Ellie would suddenly reach out and snatch the money bag!
"Even if you lose the four taels of silver, I won't give it to you!" Ellie reaches out and grabs the purse!
The other three people here held their foreheads, why did these two people talk and quarrel again?
"Lord County Commander, if the imperial court doesn't send disaster relief food, we really won't be able to live!" There was a commotion outside the inn, and several people looked down at the windowsill, one dressed in official uniform and a few catchers surrounded by the crowd!
Mu Yanze walked downstairs, called out to a shopkeeper, and asked, "Is this what happened?" ”
"The relief food of the imperial court has not yet arrived, and the people are already hungry and panicked, no, seeing the county commander patrolling here, they will gather around to inquire about the disaster relief food!" The shopkeeper shook his head helplessly!
"Listen to me, the relief food distributed by the imperial court is already on the way, everyone is waiting for a few days, and you won't have to go hungry soon!" The prefectural commander said loudly. A woman's voice came: "My lord, my child hasn't eaten for two days, why are the prices in Chongde County rising and rising, which is really beyond the income of our ordinary people!" ”
The magistrate walked up to the woman's child, stroked the child's withered yellow hair, and lamented: "God, it rains a little, take pity on these ordinary people!" ”
Mu Yanze returned to the room, took out his share of steamed buns and came to the woman's child, squatted down, and said seriously: "You take these two buns!" The little boy didn't end up with the bun that Mu Yanze handed over, but looked at his mother and said, "Mother, can I take it?" ”
Mu Yanze laughed, he was really a sensible child, stuffed the two buns into the little boy's hand, Mu Yanze said: "These two buns are not given to you for nothing, after you eat these two buns, you will be a man who stands up to the sky and the earth, and when you grow up, you will be a pillar of the country!" ”
The little boy nodded firmly and said, "Well, big brother, after I eat this bun, I will definitely be a big hero who stands up to the sky and the earth and become a pillar of the country!" ”
"Well, let's eat!" Seeing the little boy gobbling up the buns, Mu Yanze patted the little boy on the shoulder, stood up, and said to the woman, "You taught the child so well!" The woman glanced at the boy and said, "Don't say thank you to my brother yet!" ”
The little boy raised his head, his eyes were very clear and innocent: "Thank you, big brother! ”
Mu Yanze said to everyone: "I can understand everyone's mood now, but please rest assured, the relief food distributed by the imperial court will soon arrive in Chongde County, everyone hold on for a few more days!" ”
Everyone sighed, and they could only disperse like this!
Mu Yanze glanced at the county magistrate and was about to leave, but the county magistrate suddenly stopped him and asked, "Dare to ask what is the name of the little brother?" ”
"Mu Yanze!" Mu Yanze casually said his name, and then returned to the room, leaving only the county magistrate looking at Mu Yanze incredulously behind him!
When Mu Yanze returned to the room, he saw Shen Zili give him a thumbs up, no wonder the emperor's father told her that he wanted Mu Yanze to inherit the throne, now she understands, it turns out that Mu Yanze is so sympathetic to the people, he would rather be hungry than watch the people suffer!
Shen Zili took out her bun and handed it to Mu Yanze: "Na! Here you go! Mu Yanze waved his hand and said, "You can eat!" I'm not that hungry! ”
Seeing that Mu Yanze refused to accept it, Shen Zili stuffed it into his hand: "If you take it, take it, I still have it!" Didn't the second brother eat a bowl of noodles outside just now, and now he shouldn't be hungry, I'll eat his share! ”
Mu Xianyu's eyes widened: "Who said I'm not hungry, I'm still hungry!" Elle took the buns on the table and said, "You're so fat, and you still eat?!" ”
"Ba Po, pay attention to what you say, where am I fat? I'm just right! Mu Xianyu gestured at his waistline, and Ai Li said, "You are not fat, can you still crush the branches last time?" ”
Thinking of the last time he fell from a branch and kissed Ellie, Mu Xianyu didn't know how to fight back!
"There is a Ruan Yuanwai in this county, and his family seems to be very rich, and he eats very well! Just now I was kidnapped by Ruan Yuanwai's son, and he asked someone to bring me a table of good dishes! Could he be colluding with the county order to rob the people? ”
Ai Li told Mu Yanze about her experience just now, and Mu Yanze shook his head: "That county commander is not colluding with Ruan Yuanwai as you said, I just saw his clothes up close, and the official uniform was sewn with needles and threads in several places!" And his withered yellow face, which is not like what can be eaten by eating meat every day! ”
"Is it possible that Ruan Yuanwai went to rob the people by himself? He shouldn't have the guts, this Chongde County is still in the hands of the county magistrate! Shen Zili said.
"That is, the person above Ruan Yuan is bigger than the official of the county commander!" Mu Xianyu said casually, this sentence woke everyone up.
There is someone above this Ruan member, is it still Wu Liang?!
