Chapter 165: Porridge at the city gate
"Bai Ye and this lady, it's fake to buy dim sum, and it's true to find out the news, right?"
Yu Qingzhi smiled lightly, but Manniang didn't hide it at all.
"That's right, the two of us are indeed here to inquire about the news, I wonder if Manniang is willing to tell one or two?"
Manniang's eyes condensed slightly, and after a short thought, she handed the packaged snacks to Bai Xiaoer.
"There's nothing you can't say about the shop, the rent of the shop on Vermilion Bird Street is not low, the minimum is twenty taels per month, but there are many people here, and if you do it for a long time, you can make money, but if you want to make more, you have to put a little more thought."
Yu Qingzhi was curious: "Which one is the most expensive rent for the shops on this street?"
Man Niang arrived outside the door and pointed to a three-story building not far away.
"It is an official shop appointed by the emperor, specializing in the four treasures of the study room and all kinds of books, which is the most expensive recently."
Yu Qingzhi followed behind her, and when she heard the word hand-picked by the emperor, her eyes suddenly darkened.
"The emperor ordered that shop is royal?"
Manniang smiled: "That shop has something to do with the noble concubine Niangniang, but it can also be called royal, like this shop, there is one on the four main streets of the capital."
Chaise? Is it the one behind Jiang Dingzhong?
Yu Qingzhi frowned slightly, the people in the palace were doing business outside with fanfare, how could ordinary people survive?
And as a result, her paper business is not easy to develop.
Four main streets, what does the concubine want to do when she earns so much money?
As he spoke, a burst of horses' hooves suddenly came, followed by a panicked shout.
"Get out of the way, it's the Beidi."
"Ahhhh
On Suzaku Street, which was still peaceful, it was a mess in an instant, and I don't know how many people fell.
"Hahahaha, it's so happy, it's so happy!"
"Get out of here, get out of here!"
The Beidi people rode over, wielding whips wantonly on those who have no time to dodge, and in an instant, they fall to the ground again.
Yu Qingzhi's brows furrowed, and her drooping hands clenched.
This group of Beidi people is really ......
"Too much deception!"
An angry voice next to her said Yu Qingzhi's thoughts, she turned her head sideways, and only saw Bai Xiaoer's figure like a wind.
In the next moment, a Beidi man sitting on horseback was kicked down.
"Bang!"
In the huge crash, Bai Xiaoer stepped on the man's back, and looked at a few Beidi people who were holding their horses coldly.
"Who gave you the courage to dare to be presumptuous on the streets of the capital?"
Several Beidi people exchanged glances, as if they had heard a big joke.
"Who gave us the guts? These words should be given to you, hurt my Beidi people, are you ready to die?"
As the words fell, several whips were drawn towards Bai Xiaoer at the same time.
In Lanxin's shop, Yu Qingzhi's pupils shrank: "Be careful!"
Bai Xiaoer snorted coldly, bent down and grabbed the Beidi people on the ground, and a few whips didn't have time to withdraw, and they all hit him.
"Ahhhh......h
The screams swept through, and the people around them looked terrified.
"Damn, if you have the guts, you will fight with us with real knives and guns, what kind of ability is it to block people?"
Several Beidi people were angered by Bai Xiaoer, but they hindered the people in Bai Xiaoer's second-hand life, so they could only stare angrily.
Bai Xiaoer stood still: "Come over if you want to fight, don't talk nonsense there."
As he spoke, he threw the person directly to the ground.
"You're looking for death!"
The two sides were in a mess, and several Beidi people couldn't help Bai Xiaoer.
Behind, Yu Qingzhi's eyes widened: "System, where are my husband?"
Immediately, the system popped up: "Host, they're already on the next street."
Hearing this, Yu Qingzhi's heart relaxed.
On the other side, Bai Xiaoer suddenly sneered.
"You Beidi people have this ability, you can beat me ...... a few times."
"Bang!"
A figure flashed by, directly kicking Bai Xiaoer to the ground.
Yu Qingzhi followed the prestige, and his pupils shrank: "Little Er, back."
Bai Xiaoer rolled away without hesitation.
At the same time, another figure appeared, just enough to stop the person who was about to kill Bai Xiaoer.
"It's already a lot of ones, and you still have to sneak attack, are the Beidi people so shameless?"
The magnetic male voice spoke in a very calm tone, and the man turned around, in a very tight posture, and the words he said also angered several Beidi people.
"Nonsense, it's clear that you attacked first."
Bai Xiaoer got up from the ground, and when he heard this, he glared at the person who spoke fiercely: "I was beaten in the open, but it was you, who allowed you to hurt the people of my Southern Dynasty on the streets of the capital?"
"Heh, what if it hurts? Even if you kill them, will your emperor of the Southern Dynasty dare to squeak?"
In an instant, the surroundings were surrounded by silence, and all the people looked at a few Beidi people, and their eyes turned red.
But they can't refute it, because they are dead, and the emperor really won't care about them.
The border was repeatedly violated, but the court's solution was always to cede the city.
Seeing that no one was talking, several Beidi people became even more arrogant.
"Look, even you Southern Dynasties can't deny this, so why are you pretending to be here?"
"Hmph."
With a cold snort, the man raised his hand, only to hear a "bang", and a Beidi man fell.
"Ahhhh......h
The people were instantly confused, running in all directions and leaving.
In Lanxin's shop, Yu Qingzhi's pupils shrank, and he was about to go out, but was pulled by Manniang from behind.
"I advise you not to go over, Bai Ye can deal with the targeting of the Beidi people, but you can't."
Yu Qingzhi paused, his face changing from various thoughts.
On the other side, gunshots rang out again, Yu Qingzhi pursed her lips, hid all her thoughts, and said calmly, "I know......
Before she finished speaking, someone from Beidi shouted: "I know who you are, He Lianjun, you still have the courage to come to the capital, just ......."
"Bang."
The one who spoke fell.
Yu Qingzhi pursed her lips, her expression stiffly changing.
On the other side, the tightly wrapped man glanced at Yu Qingzhi's side and quickly left, leaving the corpses of the Beidi people all over the ground.
However, the words of the Beidi people just now still left traces in the hearts of many people.
He Lianjun is the name of the son of the He family, is this coming out to do something to the Beidi people?
However, in just half a day, the news of He Lianjun, the son of the He family, appearing in the capital.
At that time, Yu Qingzhi looked at the middle-aged man and woman opposite, turned his head to look at Bai Xiaoer, and frowned unconsciously.
"Little Er, you should talk to your uncle and aunt."
Bai Xiaoer turned his head and looked very serious.
Yu Qingzhi and He Lianjun exchanged glances, both of them were a little helpless, but they didn't say anything, but got up and left the hall.
"Husband, today, I am a little reckless."
The wind blows, with a chill.
He Lianjun sighed: "I know, but I really can't bear today's situation."
Yu Qingzhi pursed her lips, hesitated again and again, and still asked why He Lianjun used a gun.
He Lianjun said lightly, "Lady, do you remember that at the gate of Ninghe City, the Beidi people shouted out the gun?"
Yu Qingzhi bowed her head, of course she remembered.
At that time, she was still scared, but because of the follow-up, she didn't have time to ask.
"Husband, did you find out why? Who revealed the news?"
He Lianjun's expression was restored
Miscellaneous: "Mo Shangwei."
In just three words, the calm on Yu Qingzhi's face no longer existed.
"How could it be him? He wasn't staying in the mountains, so how could he have the opportunity to contact Beidi?"
He Lianjun closed his eyes: "It was my negligence that I didn't notice that there was a problem among the people on the mountain." Look at the book
Yu Qingzhi was silent, and it was no longer necessary to elaborate at this time.
"Mo Shangwei, what are you going to arrange?"
He Lianjun said lightly: "His ability is very strong, I won't touch him, but I must find out the origin of the conflict between the He family and the Mo family."
Yu Qingzhi bowed his head: "Indeed, the Mo family's abilities are very suitable for the husband."
As he was talking, Wei Jing walked from the side.
"Yu Niangzi, He Gongzi."
Yu Qingzhi and He Lianjun glanced at each other, and tacitly pressed the topic of discussion.
Yu Qingzhi asked, "Doctor Wei came to look for me, but is there something wrong?"
Wei Jing bowed: "Divine Doctor, I don't want to open a good hall in the capital."
Yu Qingzhi was stunned, but quickly reacted.
"If the Divine Doctor Gate is unwilling to open a Cunshan Hall in the capital, it will not be opened, but in this way, the Divine Doctor Wei will come to the capital with him, and I am afraid that there will be nothing to do."
Wei Jing smiled slightly: "Not really, I want to go to the east of the city for a consultation recently."
"Chengdong?"
Yu Qingzhi looked surprised and asked, "What's the problem over there?"
Wei Jing sighed, with obvious disgust on his face: "It is said that a few days ago, the earth dragon in the east turned over and destroyed many people's homes, and the refugees ran over, but the capital did not let them in, so they all gathered over there."
Yu Qingzhi's eyes flashed slightly, and only two words flashed in his mind - opportunity.
"Husband, I think He Ji should make a name for himself in the capital first."
He Lianjun smiled slightly: "Everything is arranged by the lady."
The next day, Yu Qingzhi took a circle in the capital, and in the afternoon he pulled two ox carts of rice to the east of the city.
The system was a little puzzled: "Is this the host trying to enhance the reputation of the congratulatory note by helping the refugees?" But they can't even enter the gate of the capital, so it's useless to help more."
Yu Qingzhi smiled slightly, "Who said it was useless? There is no official who will not take care of them, and my actions will not only be popular with the people, but also let the scholars in the capital know about the congratulatory notes."
With the emperor's demeanor, as long as the scholar notices the congratulatory note, the future business can be imagined.
Soon, the people of He Ji gathered at the gate of the city to boil white porridge, and the smell of rice spread, attracting the surrounding refugees.
Yu Qingzhi raised his eyes and heard a skinny old man ask, "Are you here to make porridge for us?"
"Naturally, the old man can wait for a while, and when the rice porridge is ready, I will be the first to serve it to you."
After another half hour, Yu Qingzhi put down the spoon that had been stirring non-stop.
At that time, there were already refugees gathered around, and everyone looked at the pot, and their eyes were full of longing.
There are young children who can't help but swallow their saliva.
Yu Qingzhi saw it in his eyes, and couldn't help but feel sour in his heart: "Please line up, let the children go forward first, we will put porridge in He Ji today, and keep it so that each of you can eat it."
The line of refugees was a little chaotic, but soon they lined up as Yu Qingzhi said.
As time went on, the queues grew longer.
Yu Qingzhi looked at the pot that was about to reach the bottom, and was about to call someone to go back to get rice, when he heard a cheer from behind.
"Someone brought rice, let the front ones go."
Yu Qingzhi turned around in surprise, and saw Bai Xiaoer waving at her.
"The eldest brother estimated that the rice on my sister-in-law's side was almost used, so he specially asked me to come over and deliver the rice."
Yu Qingzhi curled the corners of her lips: "It's just the right time."
The porridge is boiled again in the pot that was cleared before.
It was so busy until nightfall, when the queue at the door disappeared.
The well-fed children were playing next to them, and Yu Qingzhi was about to leave with a beating of his arm, when several children ran over
Stopped her.
"Beautiful lady, will you come again tomorrow?"
