The gray-clothed old man sat on the threshold and held two bowls of Mao Xuewang and tasted it carefully, burped contentedly, and then offered advice to Hua Qing, who was already frizzy.

"Let me ask you, what is the man's appearance and family background?"

"What are you asking for? I'm not looking for a husband. Hua Qing's brows were furrowed so that she could kill a fly.

"Isn't it?" The old man waved his hand, "Then I don't have anything to teach you, you go to the old bustard in the flower building for advice." ”

"What do you mean?" Hua Qing pinched her waist angrily.

It's almost wearing men's clothes again, and it's a strong drug in wine, isn't it just those tricks of the flower house?

But she never expected that Su Qi was actually a ruthless and ruthless character, and she had to come to this old man to find a way, eat and drink and wait, and find another opinion at the end?

She felt like she had been tricked by the old man.

The old man glanced at her, "Seduce and seduc, seduce people's hearts, lead emotions, if you can't do it yourself, how can you make others emotional." ”

"You don't have to talk to me there," Hua Qing gestured to stop, "Teach, or not, give a word." ”

If you don't teach her, I'll go and solve the cook of Yipinju tomorrow and see what he eats in the future.

"Alas, you create iniquity." The old man saw what she was thinking, and shook his head helplessly.

"You come here with your ears, I don't usually spread this method."

Hua Qing walked over suspiciously.

"I'll tell you......"

Whispering.

……

After a few days of walking in the deserted countryside, Su Ran finally saw the figures marching towards the city gate when the convoy was about to arrive at Chijin City.

When the convoy rested for a while, and the servants led the horses to replenish the hay and water, she got out of the car and looked at it for a while, only to realize that something was wrong.

Most of those who hurried were dressed in rags, yellow and thin, and looked tired as if they had traveled a long way.

"Half a month ago, there was a flood in Jiangcheng, flooding hundreds of families, all of whom were homeless." Xu Qingyan didn't know when she stood beside her, and her tone was heavy.

"Then how will the government settle these displaced people?" Su Ran looked at a few stiff old women in the crowd and asked subconsciously.

"Then it depends on whether the city lord of Chijin City has a good heart."

"If you open a city gate with kindness, you should be able to save some people. Today, however, there are few such officials. ”

Su Ran was silent.

Since the current saint has succeeded to the throne, sold his official position, and embezzled and accepted bribes one after another, the saint not only completely ignored it, but even suspected of conniving at it. In vain, there are unspeakable sufferings of the people, who are tumbling and suffering in natural and man-made disasters.

She suddenly remembered what Qin Yunfu had said in her previous life, serving Mingjun and never serving a minister. I don't know, what does he think of this situation now?

"What are you thinking?" Xu Qingyan looked at Su Ran who was distracted, and there was a faint sadness between her delicate eyebrows.

Su Ran was about to answer, when he saw Xu Zusheng striding towards them.

"The city lord ordered the city to be closed a few days ago, and if I want to borrow it, I'm afraid I will have to do it again."

Xu Qingyun nodded.

There is the name of the Xu family in Beijing, and the city lord does not dare to make a time, the so-called dot, the left is just a meal of time.

"Why lockdown?"

Su Ran couldn't figure it out, if he just didn't let the displaced people into the city, then he could send officers and soldiers to guard it, and the closure of the city would be too trivial.

Xu Qingyan pondered the words, and finally only gently pressed her shoulder to admonish.

"Get into the carriage for a while, cover your ears, and remember not to lift the curtains, let alone look out of the car."

Su Ran was puzzled at first, but soon knew why Xu Qingyan said this.

Displaced people, a large number of displaced people.

They had no food, no shelter, despair, and rage.

The carriage was on a rampage, and Su Ran didn't dare to ask where the sound of the bumps and banging on the carriage came from. She only glanced at the windblown car curtain, as if she had glimpsed the hideous group portraits of hundreds of ghosts under the Sansheng Pool.

She trembled uncontrollably.
