Chapter 8: Escaping the First Year of Junior High School

"I don't know what's wrong, why does the emperor want to find this girl within three days of birth to go to the imperial city, these days, there is no one." After a while, there was humanity.

"How can it be so coincidental? These people are dying of hunger, and it is not easy to give birth to babies. Sun San took a sip of wine and stopped squeaking.

The carriage went forward for an unknown amount of time, and when Qiqi was taken off the carriage, she saw a lake with thick ice, and she could not see the end at a glance.

There was a group of elderly women about fifty or sixty years old, standing respectfully on the side of the road, opening the curtain of the carriage one by one, carrying one by one, and catching all the babies in the carriage. Qiqi realized that there was not only one carriage with babies like this.

If there are 10 babies in a car, then a rough calculation shows that there are hundreds of babies in 10 cars.

Where is this? Why did you bring them here?

I have only heard of the emperor's draft, but I have never heard of the emperor's selection of babies, do they have quirks about the king in their mouths, and the concubines in the palace should be cultivated from an early age?

No, no, I heard the driver say that he was "steamed", could it be that he was reincarnated as a lamb to the slaughter?

The old women carried the babies' rag bags, walked along the wooden plank bridge over the lake to the center of the lake, and then took a dog-drawn cart before entering a heavily guarded garden gate, with stone carvings on the door and the words "Pig Garden" written similar to a small seal.

She remembered that when she was in the third grade of primary school, the most exciting part of that Chinese class. The Chinese teacher wrote a few words and a few words on the blackboard in one breath, namely: porpoise, pig, bi, Yin Zhong, Tang An, and Hei Mian Lang. The teacher told her that these words all mean one thing - pig.

Why is a good garden built in the middle of a lake? Still have to be heavily guarded, guarded? Why is it still called "Pig Garden"? Pig means pig in ancient Chinese, and this "pig garden" is translated into modern language, isn't it the meaning of pigsty?

Qiqi suddenly realizes that he is a pig waiting to be slaughtered!

She can't accept her fate, she must get out of here! Qiqi thought about it, and didn't care about crying, just remember the route that was brought in by the old woman. But now she is only a baby of the three dynasties, she is so weak, hungry and thirsty, she is severely malnourished, and now she can't even raise her little hands, she must wait.

Together with the other babies, Qiqi was put into a big bed in a room, saying that the bed was not very appropriate, a bit like a pit in the north, with a fire underneath, and the floor was warm and coaxing, but it was better than the house where he lived for three days and leaked on all sides.

They lay in a row on the big bed, one next to the other. After a while, the door creaked open, and a cold wind swept the snowflakes in, and several women dressed like cotton balls walked in, each carrying a steaming wooden barrel.

Qiqi couldn't help but sniff - well, a bit like the taste of porridge.

The mothers-in-law wore uniform black clothes with yellow edges, and pinned a dusty handkerchief to the placket. They walked over to the bed, grabbed the nearest baby, took a wooden spoon from the bucket, and brought the contents of the bucket to the baby's mouth.

Everyone was really hungry and drank in big gulps. When it was Qiqi's turn, Qiqi didn't care that the spoon was used by someone else, and she swallowed the unpalatable paste without hesitation. To be exact, I had never drunk such a bad thing in my previous life, but in this life, it has become a supreme delicacy. She's going to live!

"These people's hearts are too ruthless, and the kings of the left and right are allowed to use a stone of millet and a cloth to find cloth, but they have a bad conscience and only give people a pound." A mother-in-law sighed and whispered.

"It's also to blame for the lives of these babies, they may not be able to mix a bite of food at home...... another mother-in-law also whispered.

"But even if you starve to death, you have to have a body that is ...... here."

"Oh, we eat the king's food, we have to do things for the king, so many little babies, which one can you feel sorry for? It's like this every year, what's the point? ”

"Yes, it's like this year and year, what is the first mile to get? Take pity on us poor people! ”

The old woman fell silent again, and occasionally there was a low teasing voice.

"You old plagues, your hands and feet are getting slower and slower, don't you want to live anymore? Grinding Yang workers all day long and waiting for death! A man's voice came from outside the door, and a man in his thirties in a fox fur coat with a whip in his hand walked in.

"These things, just feed them casually, you guys hurry up, the emperor has been on the throne for ten days, and you have to pick some good vegetables and food to prepare! Old donkey hooves! Old fool! The man cursed and walked up and down the edge of the bed, staring at the babies lying on the bed with a pair of cold eyes.

Xu was frightened by his loud scolding, and one of the babies began to cry as soon as his mouth was flattened, and one led many of them, and from time to time, most of the babies on the bed let out a croaking cry.

The man's eyes suddenly widened, he reached out and grabbed one, and held it high, and before Qiqi could react, the baby was thrown to the ground heavily, his head hit the ground, and he twitched the animal a few times, and then there was no sound.

Several mothers-in-law shrank in a corner, and no one dared to step forward to stop them.

"Lord Jiang, you are angry, you are angry, these vegetable people have made books, you want to do this, I'm afraid it will not be good to explain to the top!" Another man in a black cotton robe ran in and knelt down in front of the man known as Master Jiang.

"Hmph, it's common to die one or two, and the emperor won't care. This is for Lao Tzu to stew a bowl of soup tonight! The man gestured to the small broken package on the ground, which was no longer moving.

"Yes, yes, yes, my subordinates will send someone to do it." The man kneeling on the ground nodded yes again and again.

The fox-skinned man cursed a few more words, urged the old women in his mouth, turned around and walked out.

The man who was kneeling on the ground spoke: "Lord Jiang, most of these goods are from the area of Suzhou, and the emperor has decreed that there will be no forgiveness......

"You're broken? Kill them all, how will you confess to the emperor in the future? The emperor's medicine primer for four times a month is on where to go? If someone comes to check and says that the sheep are from somewhere else, isn't it? You elm head! ”

"Yes, yes, it's a small brain that isn't bright, isn't this from Jinyang?"

"That's right, it's Jinyang! That place is good, the mountains and rivers are beautiful, and the women are good-looking. The foxskin man grinned.

The man in the black jacket nodded at him, and even though he was wrapped in a fox fur and a leather whip, he still didn't wait for him at all.
