"Perhaps, as you said, the beggars are in places like the Land Temple." Qin Yining bowed slightly, although he said so, he still said, "Later, let them take a look around, I always feel that this is not usual." ”

Jiyun didn't quite understand why Qin Yining felt like this, but she believed in Qin Yining's judgment very much, and immediately said with a straight face: "Yes, the slave maid will go and talk to the sting later." ”

The four of them were talking to the people of Danford County at this time.

This time, Qin Yining was close and listened to their conversation clearly, and sure enough, as soon as the three words "Repair the Emperor's Mausoleum" were mentioned, the middle-aged woman who was looking at the rouge immediately sank her face, pursed her lips and turned away.

This happened several times a day, and the stingers had tried their best to look for the women with good faces, or the old men who had accumulated years—such people were soft and kind in their hearts, and were the easiest to tell the truth, but in the end they still did not ask the inside story.

The more no one spoke, the more certain Qin Yining could be that there was indeed a problem in this county. If the people are delayed, there must be an inside story.

At dusk, the orange-red sun stains the sky with a brilliant sunset.

Qin Yining and his entourage of three carriages slowly drove back and forth, in order to find out the news, they did not rest all day, at this time they each sat in the carriage and ate dry cakes and snacks with water in the water bladder to satisfy their hunger.

Qin Yining tore a piece of dough and put it in his mouth, and as soon as he took two bites, he saw the thin beggar he had seen when he came.

He was walking along the side of the road with difficulty with a bamboo stick the thickness of an egg, and when he moved, he realized that his right arm and right leg were crippled! As he limped forward, his sleeve hung limply, and his right hand swung around, apparently his right arm folded into his sleeve.

Qin Yining couldn't see such a poor person, so he couldn't help but lift the curtain when the carriage passed by the man, and said softly: "Wait." ”

But the man walked on, as if he couldn't hear.

Qin Yining was helpless and told Jiyun, "Go and send this cake to that little brother, and give him this water bladder too." And then there's these bits and pieces of silver. ”

Jiyun smiled: "I know, I know that Mrs. is kind." I have here the broken silver. ”

Jiyun picked up the things Qin Yining explained, jumped out of the carriage and quickly chased after him, and then said, "Oh, little brother, you wait!" ”

But the beggar still didn't stop.

However, his legs and feet were not good, as if he hadn't eaten enough for a long time, and he didn't have much strength, so Jiyun quickly stopped in front of the man.

"Oh, why are you disobedient?"

The other party seemed to be frightened by the person who suddenly appeared in front of him, and lowered his head numbly and sluggishly.

Jiyun handed over a few pieces of bread and water bladders wrapped in oiled paper, "This is from our wife." Eat it. And this broken silver, you don't look very good, take this to the infirmary to see the injury. ”

The oiled paper bag exuded the unique aroma of dough, and Jiyun heard the obvious "grunt" in the beggar's belly.

He raised his eyes to look at Jiyun, opened his mouth, but there was no sound in his throat, hugged the bamboo stick, and slowly raised his left hand to take the oil paper bag.

Seeing this, Jiyun knew that this person was not only crippled in his right arm and right leg, but I am afraid that he did not deliberately ignore her just now, but he couldn't hear or speak.

Jiyun couldn't help but soften, and gave him some more broken silver, "You take this, go see a doctor." This is what our lady gave it. ”

Because he knew that this person couldn't hear or speak, Ji Yun pointed to Qin Yining's carriage with a gesture.

The man understood what Jiyun meant, and turned his head to look at the carriage.

Qin Yining was lifting the curtains of the carriage a little, because in the carriage, she was not wearing a hat, her white and delicate face was slightly exposed, and her big eyes were full of kindness.

The man held the oiled paper bag, lowered his head with difficulty, and took a bite of the dough.

Jiyun sighed softly and walked around him to the carriage.

At this moment, two young men suddenly rushed over from the opposite side and knocked the oil paper bag and water bladder in the beggar's hand to the ground.

"You! Who let you eat! What are you! ”

"You only deserve to eat dog food and pig food!"

Another young man grabbed the beggar and pushed him hard, slapping him and about to hit him.

Where have Jiyun ever seen such bullies! As soon as she gave the beggar food, someone knocked it over, not only knocked over the things she gave, but also beat people!

Ji Yun turned around and blocked the man's hand that had not yet fallen, "What are you doing!" What are you to bully a poor person! ”

"Little lady, Lao Tzu advises you to be nosy!"

"This idle aunt and grandmother are still in charge! If you bully a poor person with a disability, you will not be afraid of thunder and thunder! ”

"Hey! Get out of here, stinky bitch, I'll beat you up carefully! ”

……

Seeing Jiyun and the two pranksters arguing, Qin Yining saw that something was wrong and hurriedly got out of the carriage.

At this time, the beggar had been pushed to the ground by the young man, but the beggar grabbed the soil-stained dough and nibbled on it as if he did not know the pain.

As if provoked by his action of eating the bread, the two punks became more and more angry, shouting loudly, and punching and kicking the beggar around Jiyun.

"Stop." Qin Yining put on his hat, stopped in front of the two splashes with a few stings, and said kindly: "Two strong men, please calm your anger." ”

The two young men looked at the woman with a slender head and a hat talking to each other, and when they looked at her demeanor and listened to her voice, they knew that it was a beauty, and they couldn't help but have some emotions peculiar to good-looking people, and their shouting was weaker, but their attitude was still bad.

"Outlander! I advise you to be less nosy! ”

The controversy and shouting here has attracted a lot of ideas. Qin Yining's caravan did a lot of business today, and it was seen that something had happened to the businessman here, and men, women, old and young, all gathered over.

An elder who was over the age of sixteen walked out of the crowd and stood in front of Qin Yining with a calm face.

"This lady. You are from other places to do business on the boundaries of our Danford County, can we embarrass you? ”

Qin Yining smiled and saluted, and said softly: "This old man, Danfu County is an outstanding person, the people are simple, the villagers are harmonious, I and other foreign businessmen, and the brothers and sisters in Guibao Land are quite taken care of, and the little woman is really grateful." ”

The elder frowned, and reprimanded in a deep voice: "Since we haven't done anything that is wrong with a few people, why are you meddling in our affairs again!" ”

Qin Yining took a step forward, and a calm voice came out of the hat: "This old man, we didn't want to meddle in the affairs of your county, but we just saw that this little brother was embarrassed, so I gave some food, how can this offend your county?" ”

"Tell you." The old man stepped forward, kicked the bread in the beggar's hand with one kick, and crushed it a few times.

"Four years ago, this person wandered, fainted on the street, and was taken back to his home by Wang Dashanren, who entertained him with good food and lodging, and did not think that he was deaf and dumb, and arranged something for him to do. Who would have thought that he had just lived in Wang Dashan's house for two days, and then killed Wang Dashan's wife! If he hadn't felt that it was too cheap to sue the official and cut off his head, he would still be able to survive to this day? If he does something that is inferior to pigs and dogs, he is not worthy of eating human food, but only pig and dog food! ”

The old man was furious, and kicked the beggar again, this time on his severed right arm.

His arm was already crooked at an abnormal angle, and now it seemed that his arm was bent even more strangely, and the appearance of curled up in a ball of pain became more and more miserable.

Qin Yining furrowed his eyebrows.

She wanted to find out the news, and she didn't want to be too public, and she didn't want to attract attention. But when it comes to this kind of thing, it's hard for her not to ignore it.

"It depends on you. Did this person kill someone? ”

"Exactly!"

"That being the case, why didn't you report it to the government four years ago and make it clear in court? If the evidence is sufficient, the state will deal with the person. Since he killed someone, there is also the Qingtian Lord who is in charge to cut off his head, and he will not let people torture and humiliate him like this! According to you, in the past four years, he has been a deaf and mute man, and he has been thrown on the street to beg with his hands and feet broken, and depending on your intentions, he has never given him alms, but only gave him pig and dog food, and how much nobler is it to torture a person in this way than to kill people? ”

"That's it!" Jiyun was also indignant when he heard this, and said fiercely with his waist crossed, "That Wang Dashan was killed by someone, and he can still bear not to report to the government, isn't there anything strange in this?" Well, even if his wife was really killed by this man, no one can say anything if he gives him a good time to die. But he tortures people in such a way, he doesn't let him live well, he doesn't give a happy death, he tramples on a life like this, and the person who does such a thing can also call him a 'great good man'? Don't laugh off people's big teeth! ”

"You!" The old man glared at him angrily, "You strangers, you know that you are not well-intentioned!" You shouldn't have been let in in the first place! ”

"Lu Yin belongs to the imperial court, and the imperial court doesn't stop us from doing business, you are an old man, where did you get such a big breath!" Jiyun roared back.

At this time, many people had gathered around, and many of them had been enraged, and they all accused Jiyun and Qin Yining.

"You people are so boring!"

"That is, we can deal with the prisoners as we like, what kind of country and French law do you have, are you just like those dogs in the court, you are all here to harm the people?!"

In their eyes, it was natural to deal with a criminal who had killed someone in such a private way, and they had never been so accused before, and everyone was furious.

Seeing that the situation was wrong, a few people hurriedly protected Qin Yining's body.

Qin Yining didn't expect things to come out like this, Fang began to be shocked and said that the clans of the three big families in Danfu County together accounted for eighty percent of the county's population, and she still didn't believe it, but now these people are so united, even if they are firmly an ignorant approach, no one raised objections, and still believes in the judgment of the elders without question, and is hostile to the imperial court, completely contradicting the laws of the imperial court.

Qin Yining's brows furrowed, and he made a decision in an instant.
