Chapter 69: Refugees
"Childe, that Wang Yun is so big, you just came to Huaizhou to give you such a dismount, when we return to Kyoto, we must report this matter to Xiangye." The child lying on the bed angrily complained about his son-in-law.
"Little boy, this place is no better than Kyoto, you can't be reckless in everything, otherwise you will go back first." Le Qing said to the child warningly.
He didn't know that Wang Yun was killing chickens and monkeys, and telling himself in every word and deed that this was his Wang Yun's territory, and that he, the Lord Qincha, was just an empty name in his eyes.
Lin Xingyu opened the door and walked in at this time, holding Jinchuang medicine and gauze in his hand: I'll help you with medicine.
When the child saw Lin Xingyu lifting the hem of his clothes, he quickly turned over in fright, but because of the injury on his buttocks, he quickly got on his stomach because of the pain, and just reached out and grabbed his pants tightly: "I'll do it myself, you... You go out first. ”
Xiao Tong's age doesn't seem to be more than fourteen or fifteen years old, Lin Xingyu didn't think much about it at first, but he just felt that Xiao Tong's buttocks were injured, and it was definitely inconvenient for him to take medicine, and Le Qing was Xiao Tong's master, and Xiao Tong would not let Le Qing give him medicine, so the matter of medicine could only fall on her.
But now seeing Xiao Tong's face flushed and clutching her pants tightly with her hands, looking at her nervously, she realized that there is a difference between men and women.
"I can do it, I can really do it." Seeing that Lin Xingyu was still gesturing with her hands, Xiao Tong was afraid that she would pick up her pants, so she quickly nodded again and again, indicating that she could.
Le Qing watched the interaction between the two, and smiled and took the Jinchuang medicine and gauze in Lin Xingyu's hand: "Miss Lin, you go down to rest first, this medicine is on the next child." ”
Lin Xingyu didn't insist, nodded at the two of them and went out of the room directly.
Wang Yun led the three of them into the city and did not arrange a place to stay, but ordered someone to find a small inn for them casually, and left in a hurry.
The attitude of the prefect of Huaizhou is very clear, I am the boss in Huaizhou, if you want to return to Kyoto alive, then everything has to listen to me.
However, who is the emperor today, and who is Lord Qincha and his father, if there is no slightest dependence, how can a powerless scholar come to Huaizhou, the land of Longtan and the tiger's den?
The sky was not beautiful, the pouring rain did not stop for a moment, and the fertile fields and houses on the slightly lower terrain in Huaizhou City were flooded early, and those people who were flooded and homeless did not have time to clean up their homes, and fled to higher ground with hungry and dizzy families.
For a time, the highest eastern city was full of refugees.
With no shelter from the rain, the refugees had to stand in the rain and let the wind blow and rain.
Looking at the nobles who went in and out of the land of fireworks as usual, the anger and resentment grew and fermented in the refugee pile.
For three days, Le Qing and the others did not leave the inn for half a step.
Until the fourth day, a large number of officers and soldiers were ushered in outside the city of Huaizhou, and after this group of officers and soldiers entered the city, they bought a large courtyard in Dongcheng, and then came to the inn where Leqing temporarily lived.

"A large group of officers and soldiers? Are you sure? In the study room of the main courtyard of the Zi Mansion, Lord Zi looked at Lord Zhao who reported to him suspiciously.
Lord Zhao glanced at Lord Lin who came with him: "Xiaguan and Lord Lin saw with their own eyes that those officers and soldiers pulled grain carts into the city, and then bought a yard in Dongcheng, and after transporting the grain into the courtyard, they went to the inn to take Qin Cha to that courtyard. ”
Lord Lin nodded: "Yes, Xiaguan and Lord Zhao happened to pass by the courtyard in a sedan chair, and by the way, I asked someone to inquire." ”
Lord Zi pondered for a moment and said, "These officers and soldiers should be here to transport grain, don't panic first, take a look." Tell Wang Yunduo to walk around with Na Le Qincha, don't make too much trouble on your face. ”
Lord Lin and Lord Zhao glanced at each other, and they all said that they all listened to Lord Zi.

"Lord Wang, my son-in-law went to the eastern suburbs today, why don't you go to the eastern suburbs to have a look." Le Qing didn't bring the child who was just able to walk on the ground when he went out today, and the child was already in a very bad mood because of this, and now he saw Wang Yun who beat him a few days ago, so naturally he would not have a good face.
Wang Yun's smiling face stiffened, this dog slave let him sit here and wait for almost two hours, but now he told him that Le Qing was not at home, if it wasn't for Lord Zi's explanation, he would definitely chop up this dog slave and feed it to the dog: "I don't know when Lord Qincha will come back?" ”
Seeing Wang Yun's angry face but unable to attack, Xiao Tong couldn't help but feel happy in his heart: "How do I know when the son will come back, I will come back in a while, I will come back in the evening, and I may not be interested in tomorrow." ”
"You..." Wang Yun glared at Xiao Tong fiercely, then shook his sleeves and left.
——————。
Thousands of people in the eastern suburbs of Huaizhou gathered in the soup chickens, and the people leaned together in groups and looked cautiously in the direction where he was.
"It's raining so hard, and Lord Wang didn't think about going over to settle these people?" When Le Qing saw the situation in front of him, he couldn't help but feel angry.
Xiao Shi, who brought Le Qing to check the disaster, said flatteringly: "Lord Qincha doesn't know, now the entire Huaizhou City is not only short of food, but even the supply of rain shelter is insufficient, and every house in the East City is also full of people, Lord Wang is really powerless." ”
Hearing this, Le Qing's gentle face turned a little colder, and he asked rhetorically, "It's full?" ”
Xiao Shi laughed and explained: "Except for some inns and restaurants and special courtyard mansions, they are indeed full of people. ”
"Dare to ask what special mansions refer to?" Le Qing looked directly at Xiao Shi.
Xiao Shi was looked at by Le Qing for a while, and couldn't help but avoid his gaze and said: "Lord Huiqincha, the mansions of the dignitaries and nobles in the city are all special houses. ”
Le Qing retracted his gaze and looked sideways at a mother in the group of victims who threw the umbrella in her hand that had been blown by the wind on the ground, trying to use her body to protect her child from the rain, and a little sadness suddenly rose in her heart: "General Qu, please place these victims in the vacant inns and restaurants in the city and the mansions of dignitaries. Reaching out and taking out a palm-sized token from his bosom, he handed it to General Qu: "Seeing Jin Ling is like seeing my emperor, if those businessmen do not agree, you can take strong measures." In addition, the warehouse will be opened tomorrow morning to release grain. ”
General Qu needed to transport grain, so he came to Huaizhou City three days later than him, which was also the emperor's arrangement when they came to Kyoto.
Looking at the back of General Qu putting away Jin Ling and leaving, Lin Xingyu pulled La Leqing's sleeve.
Le Qing turned around, and was about to ask, but out of the corner of his eye, he happened to see a luxurious carriage parked beside them.
"Lord Chincha, why did you get here? Let the lower officials be easy to find. Wang Yun smiled and stepped on the back of the porter and got out of the car.
Le Qing smiled politely: "I don't know what Lord Wang is looking for Jin?" ”
