In the main hall, incense curls, like a thin veil light cage.

Zhong Xiaoshu, Yin Zhige and Yuan Wen sat opposite the table.

More than half of the tea was drunk, but the three of them only frowned.

"If you want to find a way to reveal the remnants of the Xia Kingdom hidden in the shadows, is there any way not to startle the snake?"

Yuan Wen's heart moved, and he hesitated to speak: "The minister has a plan." ”

"But it doesn't hurt to say it."

"The minister thinks that the thief must know some of the recent situation in the DPRK and China.

Therefore, they must also know some things about the emperor and Niangniang, so they should pay more or less attention to Niangniang's movements.

If the queen mother is allowed to use herself as bait and walk around the palace under the guise of going out to play, maybe she can attract those remnants ......"

"No way!" Yin Zhige didn't think about it, so he directly vetoed this proposal.

"This is too risky, if Xiao Shu comes up with something three long and two short......"

"It's a feasible plan." Zhong Xiaoshu suddenly interrupted Yin Zhige's words, "I'm just taking a risk, it's worth it if I really catch a big fish." ”

Yin Zhige lowered his head slightly and stared at her steadily, his eyes deepening: "I don't want to see you in danger. ”

"It's worth it," Zhong Xiaoshu smiled at him, "It's not that I haven't taken risks before, I have the ability to protect myself."

Besides, if something really happens, aren't you still there? ”

Her trusting gaze made Yin Zhige's heart the softest. The soft part shuddered slightly.

In the end, even if there were a thousand words in his chest, he had to turn into a helpless sigh.

He took her into his arms, Zhong Xiaoshu's head pressed against his warm chest, and his wordless sigh turned into the heaviest promise.

Early the next morning, Zhong Xiaoshu got up in the morning to make up, not like the previous luxurious clothes, but changed into light clothes.

Wearing a goose yellow dress wrapped lightly, the belt outlines the thin waist, and the delicate face and graceful figure make people see it at a glance.

After saying hello to Yin Zhige, Zhong Xiaoshu walked out of the palace gate and walked all the way to the street.

Since she wanted to attract the remnants of the Xia Dynasty who were hiding in the shadows, she naturally couldn't bring too many people, and she couldn't show off.

As long as you act like an ordinary resident, like you just come out casually to relax.

Her purpose is to attract the eyes of those who are watching in the shadows.

Just lure the snake out and you'll be able to ...... Clean sweep.

After watching for an hour, Zhong Xiaoshu leaned against a wall at random and wanted to rest.

At this moment, several people in ragged clothes and sallow faces slowly walked up with slightly lame legs, looking like beggars nearby.

"Miss, it's okay! We haven't eaten properly in days—"

A man bent over, his trembling hand holding the bowl that had been broken on one side, looking extremely pitiful.

Seeing that they were really poor, Zhong Xiaoshu couldn't help but sigh.

This is in the imperial city, but even at the feet of the Son of Heaven, such a thing cannot be avoided, and there will always be people who are so poor that they have no way to go and sleep on the streets.

Zhong Xiaoshu took out the money bag around his waist, poured some coins into his hands, and put a few in everyone's hands.

She looked at them and said softly, "Go buy something to eat." ”

"Thank you, Miss! Miss is really a bodhisattva, and the bodhisattva will surely bless you—"

Several people thanked each other again and again, received the money and walked away.

Seeing them walk away, Zhong Xiaoshu exhaled softly. That's all she can help with.

After a day of shopping, I saw the sunset in the western mountains, but nothing happened.

Zhong Xiaoshu couldn't help but be a little depressed, returned to the palace with his tired body, and simply told Yin Zhige about the situation and fell asleep.

For the next few days, Zhong Xiaoshu was wandering outside, trying to attract the eyes of those hiding in the shadows.

But her actions were like throwing a pebble into the water, and she didn't move.

What caught her attention was that the beggars seemed to go to that place every day, so they could see each other every day.

Zhong Xiaoshu will also chat with them in a timely manner, or give them a few copper plates.

Over time, they became a little familiar with each other, and Zhong Xiaoshu would also ask them about the situation in the imperial city on weekdays.

squatted like this for a few days, Zhong Xiaoshu didn't wait for someone to take the bait, and couldn't help but feel secretly depressed, but there was nothing to be done for the time being.

It was another sunny day, Zhong Xiaoshu changed his clothes as usual and wandered around the imperial city, but when he walked to the place where the beggars were stationed, he didn't see a familiar figure.

She waited a few more moments, but there was still no movement.

Zhong Xiaoshu was puzzled in his heart, and secretly felt a little strange. According to common sense, they should all be here at this time......

Scratching her head, she decided not to linger too much and walked to the corner in front of her.

Turning the corner, Zhong Xiaoshu heard an unusual sound.

She looked up and saw the familiar figures lying on the ground.

A few people were standing there, beating the beggars, and their fists fell on them, and several people rolled around, crying out in pain.

Zhong Xiaoshu frowned, and ran up without hesitation: "Stop!" What are you doing? ”

She pushed someone away, as the crowd around her shouted looked at her.

Several of the men who were kicking and beating the beggar stopped hearing the sound, and they had no choice but to look back for a few times and then fled in a hurry.

Zhong Xiaoshu looked at their figures running away, leaned down and asked the few people who were in pain, "Are you okay?" ”

Several people stared at each other, looking like they were suffering, and they still didn't seem to have eased up.

The arms exposed under the clothes showed traces of bruising, and the corners of the mouth were faintly bloodshot, seeing them like this, Zhong Xiaoshu couldn't help but twist his eyebrows again.

What did they do that they did to beat them so mercilessly?

She is the mother of a nation, how can she contribute to the majesty of the wicked?

She sighed, and finally couldn't bear to see them in such pain, so she crouched down to examine their wounds.

He wiped off the blood with a clean handkerchief, bandaged them briefly, and then left a message and went to the nearby medical center to invite a private doctor.

After the doctor arrived, he treated a few people, and after applying ointment and drinking water, several people finally came to their senses.

They looked at each other, and their faces were full of expressions for the rest of their lives, and they couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

"Are you all right?" Zhong Xiaoshu asked again.

They looked up at the young lady and nodded gratefully.

"In this case, I'll send you to a nearby place to rest first." She picked up a man and led them forward.

"There's a ruined temple nearby, and we usually settle down there." The man said softly.

Zhong Xiaoshu nodded and sent them all the way to the broken temple.

The tall Buddha statue is covered with dust, and the incense candlestick in the center looks like no one has come to offer incense for a long time, and it is covered with a layer of dust.
