67. Beggars

The next moment, the blackened Li Gongzi fainted.

Fang Ping stepped forward to support this Li Gongzi, and took out the gold medal on his waist, only to see that it was written "Chengnan Rite Department Li Zuo Shilang Mansion".

This was not issued by the imperial court, but a waist plate smelted with gold by himself, presumably specially made to show his identity.

This boy is really the son of Li Zuo Shilang!

Fang Ping's eyes lit up, if he made friends, he might be able to use this to find out the news of the court. He was going to find the aunt in the capital to help, but he didn't know the specific address, and the vast capital was like looking for a needle in a haystack.

Thinking like this, Fang Ping beckoned to the beggar again, "Hey, come here." ”

After calling twice, the beggar realized that he was calling him, raised his head and looked at Fang Ping, and saw that although he was better than himself, he was probably the clean clothes of the beggar gang, so he slowly walked over.

"Do you know how to get to the Li Mansion?"

The beggar nodded, this is a compulsory practice in the industry for food, not to mention that Li Shilang in the south of the city is kind and charitable, and he will give porridge on the fifteenth day of the new year, and there is no beggar in the city who does not know the location of the Li Mansion.

"Okay, let's send Li Gongzi back together."

"Ah......h

Seeing that the beggar was a little hesitant, Fang Ping said again: "This Li Gongzi is a rich family, why don't you send people over, it is indispensable to benefit." ”

The corners of the beggar's mouth twitched, as if he was afraid: "You should take this benefit by yourself......

Seeing that the beggar was soft and didn't eat, Fang Ping snorted twice and threatened: "Li Gongzi is injured, and he can't get rid of you." You still dare to shirk, you don't want to run if something really happens. ”

"Don't, don't, I'll just send it!"

Hmph, what a.

Fang Ping asked the beggar to carry Li Gongzi on his back, and the two rushed all the way to Li Mansion in the south of the city.

I have to say that this beggar's strength is not small, and he walks like a fly with such a big living person on his back, and walks for several miles without panting.

"Good strength!"

Thinking of the strength of the skin he was beaten before, Fang Ping couldn't help but wonder if this guy was a practitioner. But if there are really three or two hits, it won't become a beggar, right?

He stretched out his hand and poked the beggar's waist, and the beggar trembled, turned his head, and looked strange:

"Little brother, what do you want to do...... I, I'm not good at that. ”

"you!"

Fang Ping's face darkened, and he explained: "I see that you have a clear root, you are a good seedling for martial arts, how can you become a beggar?" ”

Actually, this was completely fooling him. Fang Ping just now was just probing whether the beggar had spiritual power on his body, and he couldn't see his root bones at all.

The beggar was a little sad: "Alas, it's all fate." Some people are born emperors, and some people can only be beggars, and people like me are beggars......"

Fang Ping felt that the beggar was too pessimistic, so he persuaded him: "Can't you just not be a beggar?" ”

"What do you do if you don't be a beggar?" He looked confused.

Fang Ping patted him on the shoulder: "With your strength, if you go to the army as a soldier, you will be able to become a general sooner or later; Even if you go to be a nursing home, it's better than asking for food, right? ”

But he disagreed: "I'm just rough skin and thick meat, if I can be a soldier, then my other brother must be a general." ”

"Another brother?"

"Yes, my strength is far worse than my brother's, and I will definitely take you to get to know you if I have the chance. Everyone is asking for food, multiple friends and multiple roads, hehe......"

The beggar who dares to love himself is also an accomplice! The corners of Fang Ping's mouth twitched, but he didn't argue with him much. He leaned over and said in a low voice: "Have you heard a word, the prince will Xiangning have a kind of?" ”

The beggar's eyes lit up, Fang Ping thought he had understood, but he never expected that what he said next would be shocking.

"I don't know if there is a kind of prince and general, but I definitely have it anyway."

Fang Ping followed his gaze downward, and only then did he notice that the big bag in the crotch of this cargo was indeed extremely majestic! If ordinary people are Xiaopo, then he is Taishan!

He's really never seen such a huge one, ahh

At this time, the beggar smiled a little proudly and said, "That's why everyone calls me a big beggar!" ”

When he talked about this big species, his face also showed a hint of confidence.

"That big seed......" Fang Ping didn't believe it, this person didn't have the slightest idea of turning over.

"Being a beggar can also do great things, I see that you have great weapons, and you will definitely be able to do great things in the future."

Dazhong smiled innocently: "Thank you, no one has ever looked up to me so much." ”

Seeing that there was an improvement, Fang Ping then encouraged: "I think I am the founding emperor of the Great Qian Dynasty, and I used to be your companion......"

"Really?" Listening to Fang Ping tell the legendary story of Taizu beating the world with a broken bowl, the big beggar looked stunned.

"How's that, do you still want to be a beggar?" Fang Ping secretly thought that as long as he was a human being, he would have desires, even if he was a beggar.

The big beggar smiled cheaply: "I don't want to be a big beggar......

Fang Ping showed a relieved smile, he was finally a little self-motivated, and he didn't waste his words in vain.

"I want to be an emperor beggar, an emperor among beggars!"

Damn, it's really hopeless!

Fang Ping was completely convinced, it was really a dog who couldn't change eating. He didn't continue to talk nonsense with this thing, and by the time they reached the Li Mansion in the south of the city, it was already dark.

"Where did you call Hanako, get out of here!"

The two guards at the gate of the Li Mansion impatiently chopped the long stick in their hands.

Da Chong gave such a drink, his legs were weak when he landed, and he couldn't use his strength, and he knelt on the ground all of a sudden, Li Gongzi was thrown by him like this, but he woke up and let out a muffled snort.

"Let's go quickly......" The big beggar said and was about to slip away, but was stopped by Fang Ping.

What are you kidding, how can you return empty-handed after all the hard work you have worked so hard to send this Li Gongzi home?

At this time, Li Gongzi also stood up slowly, shook his head, and shouted at the porter a little weakly: "Don't come here yet!" ”

"It seems to be...... Son? ”

"Ouch, Childe, why did you get like this!"

The two porters threw their long sticks and came up to meet them.

Li Gongzi pointed at Fang Ping and the others, "These two are my life-saving benefactors, don't dare to slack off!" ”

"Yes, yes, don't worry, the small ones must be arranged."

One gatekeeper helped Li Gongzi tremble into the mansion, while the other gateman stayed.

Fang Ping thought that he would entertain him, but he didn't expect the porter to send him casually: "Go to the back door to get two dough cakes, and then receive porridge, report my name, and add two more bowls to you." ”

It's really called Hanako!

Fang Ping flicked his left and right sleeves, coughed lightly, and said, "I am a Xiucai who entered Beijing to take the exam, and I am friends with Li Gongzi." ”

The porter paused, looked Fang Ping up and down, and saw that although he was dusty and dirty, he had an extraordinary bearing, and he was a talent, and his heart was unpredictable.

"Li Gongzi instructed you to entertain us, is this the hospitality of your mansion?"

Hearing Fang Ping's rather resentful tone, the porter suddenly woke up, and said with a smile on his face:

"This little master, please come in!" As he spoke, the porter led the way with his waist in front of him.

"Hmm." Fang Ping bowed slightly, his heart was really not polite to these subordinates.

The big beggar shrank back, and Fang Ping's heart was horizontal, he had to take him to experience a noble life to see if he wanted to be a beggar.

"Let's go in together, or we won't have any good fruit for you." Fang Ping gritted his teeth and whispered.

The big beggar shook his head: "It's good for you to go, why don't you pretend to be ......"

Before he could say anything, he was kicked hard on the ass by Fang Ping.

The porter turned and cast a strange look.

"Master, this is called Hanako, so you don't have to follow, right?"

Fang Ping explained calmly: "Although he is a man named Hanako, he is also a friend of your son-in-law. How, do you have an opinion? ”

"Don't dare, don't dare!"

The porter bowed his head and said with a flattering smile.

He thought to himself that the young master usually likes to make some strange people, and it seems not impossible to become friends with beggars......

Fang Ping and the big beggar went to the side hall together, and the porter went to report it, saying that Li Gongzi would come to see them after he had washed up.

During this period, the big beggars were restless, while Fang Ping looked at the layout and furnishings around him, and secretly said that it was worthy of the capital and the mansion of the squire.

This Li Zuo Shilang, although he is a Zuo Shilang, is an important person with real power. As far as Fang Ping knew, since the Ministry of Rites Shangshu fell ill a few years ago, the imperial court has been letting the two attendants on the left and right be in charge of the affairs of the Ministry of Rites.

Under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of Rites, in addition to the ritual system of the five rites and the law of school tribute, there are also new matters of casting seals and four yi in recent years. And trading with Siyi is naturally a shortage of fertilizer.

The king is getting fainter and darker, and the court is turning a blind eye to the business of officials. Therefore, Li Shilang, the Li family in the capital, has this unique advantage and soon became one of the four richest people in the capital.

It's just that the Li family's property was handed over to Li Shilang's adopted son, which can be regarded as leaving the last trace of dignity for the imperial legal system.
