Chapter 21 Refugees

Xiao Han didn't think there was anything, but Xiao Qi seemed to like it very much, and now that he was not in the palace, Xiao Qi used it more.

If he is in the palace, because there is a grandmother who is staring all the time, even if he likes it, he can't eat more.

Xiao Yan has always had the habit of taking a nap, and Xiao Han asked the people in the house to arrange for him to rest in the east wing.

And she changed into her subordinates' clothes, left the county lord's mansion, and went to the ruined temple.

When I arrived at the broken temple, Lu Yi happened to be there, and I was very happy when I saw her coming: "I forgot to ask yesterday, what is your name?!" Also, why didn't I see your brother? ”

Xiao Han lied without changing his face: "My name is Ah Han, my brother's name is Ah Yan, my brother is a little uncomfortable, and he is resting at home." I'm here this time to ask, how happened to you yesterday?! ”

She knew that she was a little anxious, but thinking that the ugly face of the emperor's uncle had always lingered in her mind yesterday, she decided to ask.

Lu Yi had an expression of understanding, and he told him what he had observed in the past day.

"Since yesterday we have been paying attention to the refugees entering the city and we have noticed that the number of refugees seems to be increasing. Moreover, there were some people who did not seem to be feeling well, and the generals who defended the city did not let them in, so they all gathered outside the city! ”

After pondering for a moment, she said in a deep voice, "Can you take me to the place where they gathered?!" ”

Although Lu Yi didn't understand why she was interested in these refugees, she thought of the broken silver yesterday, and the person in front of her promised that he would teach them how to learn characters.

He didn't think it was a big deal to take her out of town, so he happily agreed.

It's just that you need a guide to get out of the city, but Xiao Han didn't.

She is the lord of the county, a royal clan member on the jade plate, and she has her own royal token for her to enter and exit the city gate freely, and she doesn't need a guide at all.

It's just that she can't reveal her identity now, and naturally she can't use the token, so how to get out of the city has become a problem.

Xiao Han told Lu Yi that he had no way to lead, and Lu Yi was also a little embarrassed, but soon he thought of a way.

Lu Yi has a friend, he has a guide, and he is about the same age as Xiao Han.

As long as Xiao Han dresses up, it is not impossible to mix out when there are many people.

Xiao Han was wearing men's clothes, so she didn't need to change her clothes.

Directly tied up the sleeves, and the whole person immediately became capable, and there was a little more heroic.

Lu Yi also brought a guide from a friend, and the two of them hurried to the direction of the city gate.

They were lucky, and at this time a caravan came in, and they looked at each other and immediately walked towards the city gate.

The attention of the officers and soldiers defending the city was on the caravan, so they only took a cursory glance and let them out of the city without thinking that there was any big problem.

Things went too smoothly, so that she had an idea of the slackness of the officers and soldiers defending the city.

It is precisely because of this that she can get out of the city smoothly.

After leaving the city, Lu Yi took her for another quarter of an hour or so, and people in ragged clothes began to appear on the side of the road.

Their expressions were lifeless, with no hope in sight, some digging for weeds on the road, others gnawing on leaves and bark.

What made Xiao Han most uncomfortable was that a two-year-old child was lying in his mother's arms, because he was hungry, thin as wood, and even his crying was very weak.

Suddenly, the mother picked up a sharp stone and slashed at her wrist, and blood splattered out, and she put it to the child's mouth.

Perhaps hungry, the child grabbed his mother's wrist and began to suck on his mother's blood.

This scene was too shocking, Xiao Han and Lu Yi looked at the mother and son in a daze, unable to return to their senses for a long time.

It was Lu Yi who came back to his senses first and sighed: "There are too many such things, there were still Yi Zi and ate yesterday, and now this group of people has been hungry and crazy, and they can do anything." We need to get out of here quickly, or we'll all be in danger! ”

Although Xiao Han knew some martial arts, if this group of people really went crazy, she wasn't sure if she could control them, so she followed Lu Yi's advice.

When he returned to the city, it was still very smooth, and Xiao Han asked Lu Yi to continue to pay attention to the affairs of the refugees, focusing on whether there were any sick refugees entering the capital.

She didn't forget to tell Lu Yi that she was thinking of a way to read books, and soon she had a way to let them all go to study.

Before leaving, she gave Lu Yi a few pieces of broken silver.

The reason why she didn't give them too many silver taels was that they attracted the attention of others and attracted danger.

By the time she hurried back to the county lord's mansion, it was already evening.

As soon as she entered the house, she saw Xiao Qi who was losing her temper.

And Xiao Qi also quickly discovered her, and when she saw the clothes on her body, Xiao Qi was dissatisfied: "Sister Han, are you going to look for those little beggars again?!" ”

Xiao Han knew in her heart that she couldn't make Xiao Yan immediately become diligent and studious and love the people like a son. But she can teach him slowly and let him change little by little.

She nodded: "That's right, I asked him about the results of what I asked him to do yesterday." Thinking of the scene just now and what Lu Yi said, her mood became extremely heavy.

Xiao Qi sensitively noticed Xiao Han's emotional changes: "What, did you encounter something?!" ”

Xiao Han's idea is very simple, since he wants Xiao Qi to take on the responsibility of a prince, there are some things that cannot be hidden from him.

If he still looks like he doesn't know the suffering of the people, then he will never grow.

She briefly talked about what she had just encountered, focusing on the matter of the mother and son.

Xiao Qi was puzzled: "Sister Han, if you sympathize with them and give them a little money, wouldn't it be good." ”

This is indeed the easiest way, but Xiao Han sighed deeply.

"If I give them money, what about the others who have the same experience?! I can't manage everyone. Moreover, this matter should have been resolved by the government of the capital, not by me, the county lord, which was a slap in the face of the officials of the capital. ”

She deliberately guided him, so she had to speak more comprehensively.

"Not only that, there was only Lu Yi by my side at that time, and the mother and son were also weak. But there are also young adults among the refugees, and if I do give them money, it will not only bring danger to the mother and son, but also to us. ”

Seeing Xiao Qi begin to ponder, she thought for a while and asked Xiao Qi: "If it were you, what would you do in the face of this situation?!" ”

Xiao Qi frowned: "Since it should be under the jurisdiction of the government, but it has become the way it is now, it is their problem." If I knew, I would have told my father directly, and my father would definitely find a way to solve it. ”
