Chapter 269: Poor Woman

The carriage creaked along the long bluestone street, and the woman kneeling on the side of the road looked over to her.

Probably because she was desperate and had no choice but to rush to the doctor, the woman saw that the carriage was approaching, so she hurriedly pulled her child to her knees and walked to the carriage and stopped the way. The woman pulled the child and kowtowed and cried: "Nobleman, help our mother and daughter, we really have grievances, great grievances!" ”

As soon as the woman had finished crying, the two soldiers who were standing by immediately stepped forward and tried to drag the woman and the child back.

Shen Jing couldn't bear to see this scene, so he immediately dismounted and stopped the two officers and soldiers who were acting roughly, and Shen Jing stuffed a few taels of broken silver into their hands while stopping.

With such a sophisticated human condition, Shen is already familiar with it.

When the two officers and soldiers saw the solid silver in their hands, they didn't do anything more, but just persuaded them: "This young man, I still advise you to leave early, after all, out of sight and out of mind." ”

Shen Jing didn't react at all, but asked, "Two brothers, what grievances do you have against this mother and daughter?" And no one cares? ”

Hearing this, the two officers and soldiers glanced at each other, and then one of them said helplessly: "The young man doesn't know, and it's not that we don't care." The woman's husband was missing, but her husband's case was not an isolated case, and this happened in the surrounding towns, and all the Zhijiang City Yamen later took over the matter. But more than a month has passed, and there has been no news back, and we are helpless. ”

After the officer and soldier finished speaking, the woman who was kneeling on the ground sobbed and said: "Noble, it's not like this, it's not like this, my husband was taken captive, and no one from the same village who went with him has returned. ”

After that, Shen Jing listened to the woman crying and explaining: "At first, my husband said that he would go to Zhijiang County to work and come back in a few days, but after half a month, they still didn't come back. We were worried about their safety, and after inquiring around and finding no news, I and several women from the same village went to Zhijiang County together. But when we got to the place where they were working, the people said they had never seen our husbands, and they sent for us to beat us. We had no choice but to go to the yamen to report to the authorities, but there was still no one to call the shots for us, just because we were messing around. We are all weak women, so we have no choice but to leave a few people in the county seat and a few people in the post city to shout grievances. Noble, you must help our mother and daughter, we have kowtowed to you. ”

After that, the woman pulled the child and wanted to kowtow to Shen Jing again, but Shen Jing grabbed them before they kowtowed.

Shen Jing can actually understand what the woman did, she is also desperate, and when she sees a little hope, she wants to seize it with all her might, even if the possibility is very small, even if her head will be broken and bleeding, she will not hesitate, because this is her last hope.

Shen was a little unbearable, and he said softly: "Hurry up, if you don't understand yourself, you have to pity the poor child." I promise you that I will help you within the scope of my ability. ”

When the woman heard this, she hurriedly said, "Thank you, thank you." ”

She wanted to kowtow to Shen Jing again, but was stopped by Shen Kuang.

The woman looked at the child, who was also in tears, and she held her to wipe away her tears, but the tears on her face never dried.

The two officers and soldiers had no choice but to spread their hands to Shen Jing, in fact, they were only ordered to come here and could not help much.

Shen Guo finally helped the woman and the child up, and Xiao Xiang, who had been staying in the carriage, put on a veil and walked out.

She walked towards Shen Jing and asked, "Jiang Su, what's wrong with this mother and daughter?" ”

When Shen heard this, he saw that the woman's husband was missing and told Xiao Xiang.

After listening to Shen Jing's words, Xiao

Xiang said angrily: "Does the county order of Zhijiang City care? ”

Shen said: "Then you have to ask the county magistrate of Zhijiang City." ”

Although the two officers and soldiers had not seen anything in the world, they were still half of the officials, and they still had the eyesight. As soon as they saw Xiao Xiang, they realized that the other party's identity was not ordinary, so their attitude immediately became much more respectful.

Xiao Xiang walked over and stood beside Shen Jing, she looked at the two officers and soldiers and asked, "Didn't you care about this matter in the pillow post?" ”

When one of them heard this, he immediately explained: "Miss Hui's words, because the yamen of the county town has already taken over the matter, so we have no right to ask about it." The original intention of the adults to send us was to watch their mother and daughter not go wrong. ”

Listening to the lies of the two of them, Xiao Xiang didn't question anything.

She looked at the mother and daughter, very guilty, after all, she was responsible for such a thing in Daliang.

The woman and her child slowly stopped crying, looking at the weak and helpless appearance of the two, Xiao Xiang knew that they were cornered.

After a while, Xiao Xiang whispered to Shen Jing, "Can you lend me fifty taels of silver?" I'll pay you back later. ”

Shen Kuang didn't say a word and went straight back to the carriage, he took out fifty taels of silver from the baggage of the carriage and gave it to Xiao Xiang.

Xiao Xiang took the silver and walked to the mother and daughter, and handed the money to the woman, who wanted to refuse, but was persuaded by Xiao Xiang. Then Xiao Xiang took the little girl's hand again, and said to the woman: "You take this silver first." When I get to Zhijiang County, I will definitely ask for an explanation for your husband. ”

The woman only felt that any words of thanks were pale and powerless, and tears were rolling in her eyes, she wanted to pull the child and kowtow to Xiao Xiang again but was stopped by Xiao Xiang.

Xiao Xiang comforted: "Take care of yourself and your children, and believe that the Great Liang Imperial Court will not tolerate such a thing happening, and let such a thing happen." ”

The simple woman had nothing to repay but to hide her face and weep.

Shen Jing, who was standing on the side, watched this scene quietly.

The two officers and soldiers did not dare to say anything to disturb them, they were not friendly to this woman, and they were afraid that this woman with an unusual status would turn around and ask them.

Shen Kuang and Xiao Xiang are limited in what they can do at the moment, and everything can only be carried out when they reach Zhijiang County.

In the end, Xiao Xiang comforted the woman a few more words before leaving, and Shen Guo hugged his fists to the two officers and soldiers, hoping that they would take care of them more.

Seeing this, the two officers and soldiers immediately clasped their fists and returned the salute, not daring to slack off.

Shen Guo drove the carriage and set off again, but this time both of them were in a heavy mood.

Xiao Xiang didn't sit back in the carriage, she sat next to Shen Jing wearing a thin veil.

The post city was small, so the two of them quickly drove out of the city.

Xiao Xiang was silent all the way, probably because the scene had a great impact on her.

The carriage drove slowly, and Xiao Xiang, who looked at the front with a somewhat empty look in his eyes, said lightly: "Jiang Yi, do you say that the life of our people in Daliang is really bad." ”

Shen Guo was not comforted, and said bluntly: "After walking through so many places, on the whole, the life of the people of Daliang is indeed much worse than that of our people of Dawei, and I always feel that there is an invisible coercion that makes the people unable to stand up. ”

"But the people in Suzhou, Hangzhou, and Huaiyang all live and work in peace and contentment, and the scene is harmonious." Xiao Xiang retorted.

It's just that this rebuttal pales in comparison.

Shen Jing couldn't help but smile and said: "Su Hang Huaiyang is at the feet of the Son of Heaven, if you even ignore the king's law at the feet of the Son of Heaven, it can only mean that your Nanliang is rotten to the bone." ”

Xiao Xiang naturally knew this, and at this moment, she

(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)

gradually acknowledged this fact, she said slowly: "Since my father believed in Buddhism, he even wanted to become a monk several times, but it was the ministers of the court who tried their best to stop my father's idea. However, the father and emperor gradually abandoned the government, and the originally vigorous Liang began to decline. Temples and rivers and lakes, all kinds of disadvantages have come one after another, and today it has become much more vast. ”

Shen Guo whipped his horse and said lightly: "Problems are inevitable, without these problems, there will be other problems, the key is whether there is anyone to care, or whether there is anyone who wants to care." Take the common people as an example, in fact, the most simple and amiable are the ordinary people, but if they are forced to be urgent, they are the ones who have the greatest strength. The people don't want much, and even if they themselves are in deep suffering, they never complain, and they still believe that the world will be good, but only if the superior gives them hope. ”

It's just a bad truth, everyone understands it, and Xiao Xiang, as the princess of Nanliang, will only understand it better.

"Actually, I've always wanted to change the status quo of the girder, but it's just ......"

Speaking of this, Xiao Xiang did not continue.

And Shen Guo took over and said, "It's just that you are a woman? ”

Xiao Xiang nodded and said gloomily: "Woman... If you can't do these things, you can't do a lot of things. ”

Shen Guo said with a smile when he heard this: "I have always felt that there is no way to do it, only whether you want to or not." Don't let the world's eyes hold back your ambitions, you need to know that it's not just right because the world is so. ”

After Shen finished speaking, Xiao Xiang looked at him with some surprise and said, "Do you think that women are officials, and the soldiers are even... Calling the emperor a violation of the law of etiquette? ”

Shen said: "Who determines the etiquette?" It's not man-made yet. If you sit on the dragon chair and re-formulate, who will dare to say about you at that time. In this way, in a few decades, women will be officials, and others in charge of the army will not feel strange. ”

Hearing Shen Jing's words, Xiao Xiang's originally dim eyes gave birth to a little brightness.

The night gradually came up, but the night couldn't suppress Xiao Xiang's restless heart.

After the moon hung high in the sky, the two of them sat around the campfire and nibbled on dry food, and Shen Jing ate something and drank a sip of wine, and it was very fast.

Xiao Xiang, who was sitting by the bonfire, asked coldly, "Jiang Sui, can you tell me about your future lady?" ”

Hearing this, Shen Kuang glanced at Xiao Xiang suspiciously and said, "Why do you ask this?" ”

Xiao Xiang said: "Because I feel that you are different from the people in the rivers and lakes I met before, even from martial arts masters like Donald and Bai Mama." ”

Shen Jing said casually: "Why don't I think there is any difference." ”

Xiao Xiang said: "It may be that you know yourself too well, so you can't feel it." ”

Shen Jing shook his head and said, "I don't think I know myself. Many of the rules I set for myself were broken by my own hands, one after the other. The truths that I once believed in were gradually stopped being believed, and I only knew who I was, and the rest, I didn't know. ”

Xiao Xiang didn't dwell on this boring topic with Shen Qian, but just said, "Let's talk about it?" ”

"Why do you want to tell it?"

Xiao Xiang was speechless for a while, and only said after a while: "I can give you money, just think of it as my story of buying you." ”

Shen said, "You still owe me fifty taels and didn't give it to me." ”

Xiao Xiang was silent again, she didn't have half a copper coin on her body now.

After a long time, Shen Guo felt that it was almost over, so he didn't plan to make fun of her anymore, Shen Guo said: "There are several of my future ladies, which one do you want to hear?" ”

"You ......"

"I'm serious."

"I don't listen."
