"Embroidered girl!" Those few people shouted Sikong Xiuwen, with a look of anticipation on their faces: "The porridge has been in good condition for a long time, but there is still supply?" ”

Sikong Xiuwen stopped the carriage, jumped down and took a bag of gold to a person first, and said, "I didn't have time to buy porridge and rice, but there are silver taels, you can go to the nearby towns and villages to buy rice to distribute porridge." ”

Those few people looked relieved, and finally put their minds at ease. One person took the gold and ran out, and the others hurriedly beckoned Sikong Xiuwen into the shed to rest.

Sikong picked up the stars and pulled the curtain, letting Liang Yue carefully help the emperor down. Xuanyuan Zili stood on the ground, holding his chest with one hand, his eyes sweeping around. Looking at the situation in front of him, he really felt a fire in his heart.

His people were treated like this. Zhumen's wine and meat stink, and there are frozen bones on the road. At first, he didn't think that these officials would be so indifferent, but now that he sees it with his own eyes, he only feels shocked. When Qing Jue and the others come, they must all these related people to be executed in order to eliminate the hatred in his heart.

"Master." Liang Yue shouted in a low voice, looked at Xuanyuan Zili's angry face, and said softly: "Let's go and rest for a while, you can try it later, and send them porridge." ”

The emperor was stunned, turned his head to look at Liang Yue, and pointed at himself suspiciously: "Me?" ”

Liang Yue smiled and nodded.

Sikong Xingxing looked at them for a while, and said with a smile: "Big brother is really a person who cares about the people, and when they buy rice and boil porridge, you can help distribute it, that feeling is actually good." ”

Xuanyuan Zili paused and nodded silently.

"Mi is back!" After an hour, the rice buyer finally returned excitedly. He set up an ox cart and hauled more than 20 bags of rice.

Hearing his shout, the surrounding people were all in good spirits, and the living people hurriedly gathered around, looking at the bags of rice on the car. But no one reached out to grab it.

"A few of you who have a pot and a fire, take a bag and cook it first." The man who bought the rice carried a few bags down, distributed them to some people, and then beckoned the people in the shed to carry the rice: "You boil these into porridge as soon as possible, enough for the whole town to last for several days." ”

Everyone responded, moving rice, setting up fire, and everyone was busy for a while. The emperor looked at it, his expression was a little complicated, and he didn't care about the pain in his chest or unbearable, so he got up to help make porridge.

Liang Yue curled her lips and went to help. The entire Mandarin Duck Town was rejuvenated by these twenty bags of rice. A small bag of gold can be exchanged for the continuation of countless lives, and Liangyue finally understands why so many people like to be a thief. Compared with officials, grand thieves can do more things for the people, and it is really a good way to support the people with officials.

The porridge was fragrant, and the people took their bowls and lined up in front of the porridge shed. Three wooden barrels of porridge were distributed to the victims in front of them. Sikong Xiuwen held the spoon and scooped porridge for the person in front of him with a smile. The people nodded politely in thanks before taking the bowl.

"You can try." Liang Yue sent porridge for a while and handed the spoon in his hand to the emperor.

Xuanyuan Zili stood up, took the spoon, was stunned, and then walked to the porridge bucket, scooped a spoonful, and put it into the bowl of the victim in a daze.

"Thank you." The person who got the porridge nodded to the emperor in thanks, his face was full of sincere gratitude, and Xuanyuan Zili was shocked in his heart.

Constantly handing out porridge to them, and hearing them say thank you to him, the emperor's expression gradually relaxed, and there was a look of pleasure in his eyes. Liang Yue chuckled lightly and turned around to help some children bandage their wounds.

The porridge was quickly distributed, and a new one was cooked and sent to continue to be distributed. Xuanyuan Zili began to sweat on his forehead, but the happiness on his face became more and more obvious. Looking at the satisfied and grateful expressions on their faces, it was really more rewarding than competing with the ministers to win a proposal in the court. The feeling of being grateful from the heart, the emperor felt very happy for a moment.

Sikong Xiuwen counted how much gold each family should give in the carriage, and divided the gold that Sikong picked up the stars again. inadvertently picked up a gold ingot, but suddenly saw that the bottom of the gold ingots actually had the seal of the government.

His face changed, and Sikong Xiuwen hurriedly looked at the other gold, and it turned out that some of them had seals and some of them didn't. But if the gold they used to buy rice just now had the seal of the government on it, then...

They were so careless that they forgot to remelt the gold with the seal. It's also to save people's hearts, but it's a mistake.

"Little Four!" Sikong Xiuwen shouted, and the person who had just bought rice outside responded, and hurriedly ran over.

"Miss, what's wrong?"

"Hurry up and finish the porridge, remove the porridge shed, and let people drive the car first. The gold you used just now has the seal of the government on it, and when someone finds out, they will inevitably come to check. Sikong Xiuwen hurriedly said: "You can't affect the people here, you have to act quickly." ”

"Yes." Xiao Si responded, and quickly packed up his things. Seeing this, the people in front of the porridge shed moved faster. Xuanyuan Zili looked at it, and sighed in his heart, it is not an exaggeration to say that these people and the star pickers are of the same heart, and they cooperate so well, there is no riot, and there is no dissatisfaction, so they follow the rhythm of the star pickers.

"It's too late." Xiao Sikong frowned and looked into the distance, a team of people and horses were quickly coming towards this mandarin duck town. The sail flag held high is clearly the symbol of the government.

The emperor straightened his face, put down the spoon, and Liang Yue also stood up.

The group of men and horses quickly surrounded the town, and the leader looked around, his eyes fell on the porridge shed that had not had time to be collected, sneered, and waved his hand: "Arrest this group of thieves for me." ”

"Yes." The officers and soldiers responded, and they dismounted one after another and surrounded the people in the porridge shed. The people of the star-picking family retreated together, and Xiao Sikong asked Sikong Xiuwen in a low voice: "Auntie, what can I do about this?" ”

Sikong Xiuwen's expression was cold, and he said word by word: "Ignore the situation here, it's hard to catch thieves." The lackeys of these corrupt officials, killing one is one. ”

There were a lot of officers and soldiers around, more than the people alive in the town. A fight will inevitably hurt innocent people, but if you are caught, there is no way to live.

Xuanyuan Zili looked up at the leader on the horse, there was no expression on his face, and he didn't bother to question him again. There was murderous intent and disgust in that gaze, and it made the man's heart stunned.

The leader of the army collected his thoughts, watched the officers and soldiers holding swords and surrounded a group of thieves, and only said: "If you dare to steal the gold of the government, you really don't want to die." ”

"There's no way, let's break in." Sikong Xiuwen drew his sword and looked coldly at the people around him.

"What if you can't break through?" Sikong Xingxing said worriedly: "There are too many people. ”

Sikong Xiuwen didn't reply, pulled a sword flower, and went straight towards the leader on the horse. Capture the thief first and kill the man, and it will be easy to do.

However, she underestimated the officers and soldiers around her, and before she could reach the leader, the people next to her stopped her and fought in one place. The people of the star-picking family all took action one after another, and they fought with the officers and soldiers. The leader stood on his horse and sneered: "Don't let any of you go out alive today, if you do evil for so long, you should also surrender to the law." ”

"Who the hell should be punished?" Liang Yue kicked away an officer and soldier who stepped forward, and said coldly: "An official is not as good as a thief, he cares about people's lives and ignores the people, he should be executed in order to vent the anger of the people." ”

Hearing this, the leader glanced at Liang Yue and the emperor she was supporting, and snorted coldly: "Don't talk nonsense, it's you who should be executed by Ling Chi now!" ”

As soon as the words fell, more people rushed towards them. Sikong is very good at picking stars, but his martial arts are not very good, and after a while, he was caught. Sikong Xiuwen's eyes were blood-red, and he wanted to go over to save people, but it was too late. Liang Yue's expression was as cold as ice, but because she was not worried about the emperor, she couldn't get by.

The situation became tense, and the leader looked at the captured Sikong Xingxing, and sneered: "Let's make an example of it." ”

Liang Yue's eyes widened suddenly, and Sikong Xiuwen rushed over there desperately, but unfortunately there were too many obstacles in the middle, and none of them could get by.

"Stop!" With a long shout, he finally stopped the movements of the officers and soldiers, and the leader turned back in surprise, only to see a group of imperial cavalry rushing towards him. The bright yellow color frightened him so much that he almost fell off his horse. All the officers and soldiers knelt down one after another, watching in astonishment as the cavalry entered Mandarin Duck Town.

The Imperial Cavalry is the army of Emperor Mingxuan, and it is often used when the southern tour is in distress, how can it appear here now?

Xuanyuan Zili pursed his lips and looked at Qing Jue who took the lead, and finally breathed a sigh of relief. They're here, and there's nothing to worry about.

Qing Jue got off the horse, ignored the three kneeling and nine knocks of the leader, and walked straight towards the emperor, kneeling down on one knee, and there was a tremor in his voice: "Subordinate... It's late. ”

The emperor smiled faintly, looked at Qing Jue and said, "It's not too late, it's not too late before the knife falls." Let's go and save the star-pickers. ”

"Yes." Qing Jue got up, glanced at Liang Yue gratefully, then turned around and ordered, "Arrest all the people in this group and release the other people." ”

"Yes." With a neat response, the Imperial Cavalry tied up all the officers and soldiers of that team. Naturally, the people of the star-picking family retreated to the emperor's side.

Sikong Xiuwen hugged Xiao Sikong with palpitations, and saw that he was fine, before he looked up at Xuanyuan Zili with a complicated expression: "I knew that you were not simple, but I didn't expect it... All the royal cavalry will salute you. ”

Xiao Sikong glanced at the big brother in fear and muttered, "Liar, he also said that he is not from the government." ”

Sikong Xiuwen hurriedly covered his mouth.

Xuanyuan Zili slowly lowered his head, looked at Xiao Sikong and said: "I'm not from the government, it's just that the government is under my control, I didn't lie to you." And I didn't manage it well, it was my mistake. Now that this matter is settled, I will give you a clean and honest government, okay? ”

The people around them were dumbfounded, watching the noble man clutch his chest and bow to a child, while many of them were still holding the porridge that the man had just handed out.

"My Emperor... Hooray, hooray, hooray—"
