Mu Jingzhao was slightly stunned, he turned his head to look at Jiang Ning on his side, at this time, the curtain of the carriage swayed from side to side as the carriage moved forward, and a little sunlight fell on the corner of Jiang Ning's eyes.

The hint of pride in her brow even made this little bit of daylight look a little more moving.

Sensing the turn of the other party's gaze, Mu Jingzhao hurriedly lowered his eyes and chuckled, "No wonder you like the concubine so much." ”

"Your Majesty, there is Qingshui County in front." Li Zinian's voice came from the front of the car.

Mu Jingzhao and Jiang Ning were silent for a moment, and after a long time, Mu Jingzhao stretched lazily and leaned straight behind him.

"It's finally here." His whole body softened, and there was an undisguised look of exhaustion in his eyes, "My bones are going to fall apart." ”

At this moment, the carriage slammed and stopped, and Jiang Ning's body leaned back violently due to inertia, and hit straight towards the wall of the car behind him.

However, her backward movement was stopped halfway through, Jiang Ning turned to look, and saw Mu Jingzhao's arm lying behind her, separating her back from the car wall a little stiffly.

"It's okay, it should be that the road ahead is not easy to walk, don't worry."

Jiang Ning nodded slightly and thanked him softly.

The two sat in relative silence again.

Jiang Ning raised his hand to support the car window, his eyes unconsciously swept over Mu Jingzhao on his side, today he rarely wore a light blue robe, his long hair was combed into the simplest style, and even his whole silhouette looked a little softer.

I don't know how long the car stopped, and there were scattered footsteps and arguments outside.

Mu Jingzhao and Jiang Ning glanced at each other with puzzled faces, Mu Jingzhao took the lead forward, opened the curtain and asked the people outside, "What's going on?" ”

Li Zinian, who was riding a horse in front, turned around and turned back, "It's okay, it's just that there are some obstacles on the way, the emperor doesn't stop - son, please be patient for a while." ”

Mu Jingzhao nodded in response, and was about to lower the curtain, but saw a young man with unkempt hair and ragged clothes rushing towards the direction of the car door.

The man's power was extremely human, and the protruding ribs on his chest slammed into the car body, making a muffled sound, quite a kind of coldness and determination that put life and death out of the way.

The young man looked like he was about seventeen or eighteen years old, with dark skin, skinny bones, his hair shaved into a short inch, his cheekbones on his excessively thin face were stubbornly raised, and his eyes were full of clear determination.

"Good Samaritan, please do well, send me something to eat."

Jiang Ning was taken aback by this sudden change, and Mu Jingzhao almost reflexively blocked in front of her.

Seeing this, Li Zinian was shocked, and hurriedly said, "Greed is not enough, if you surprise our son-in-law, even if you have ten heads, it will not be enough." ”

As soon as he finished speaking, the plainclothes Praetorian Guards led by Lu Feng rushed up and dragged the man out.

"Good man, do well, give me something to eat, please."

Mu Jingzhao frowned slightly, "What's going on?" ”

"Hui Gongzi, this young man should be a people displaced by the rebellion."

"If you are the people, why don't you save them?"

Li Zinian's face showed a little disdain, "If he just wants to fill his stomach, it would be fine, but he is greedy and insufficient, and he says that he doesn't have enough food to eat, and he still has the old and the young at home, and he also said that there are neighbors and villagers." ”

Speaking of this, Li Zinian also sighed helplessly, "Now this Qingshui County is in chaos, everyone is in danger, even if we can save a few, it is only a drop in the bucket, besides, we still have this team of people, everything must be our own first." ”

The man's pleading voice grew farther and farther between the two men's conversation.

"Can't we give them to them first, and then we can buy them?"

"Ouch, my Wan-Childe. At the beginning, we also said that we would give him silver, but he refused to ask for it, saying that it was useless to use it, and if you think about it, if this silver can really buy something, can this old scoundrel want it? ”

During the conversation with Li Zinian, Mu Jingzhao's brows became tighter and tighter.

Now the situation in Qingshui County seems to be far worse than he imagined.

"I'll get out of the car and take a look." Mu Jingzhao said this, raised his hand and was about to lift the curtain and walk down.

Li Zinian knew that he was powerless to stop him, so he only nodded, handed over the carriage to another little eunuch, and followed closely behind Mu Jingzhao.

"I'm with me, too." Inside the car, Jiang Ning said.

Mu Jingzhao turned his head to look at her, and after seeing the resoluteness in her eyes, he stopped stopping and nodded in agreement.

Mu Jingzhao and Jiang Ning walked side by side, Li Zinian followed closely behind the two, and the three of them walked towards the front of the convoy together.

In front of the convoy, Lu Feng and Vice General Chen drove the scrawny boy into the shade of a tree not far away, and beside him, a girl about ten years old was cowering and leaning in his arms.

Lu Feng bent down, didn't know what he whispered in the young man's ear, and carefully took out a handful of dry food from his arms and stuffed it into the arms of the young grandmother, and then turned to leave.

Unexpectedly, he just turned around, but the young man grabbed a stone on the side of the road and smashed it straight towards the back of Lu Feng's head.

With the stone coming, there was an unbearable curse, "If you don't give it, you won't give it, who will you pretend to show it?" If you want to do bad things and want to have a good reputation, there is no such reason in the world, such a little thing, you should keep it and call it Hanako! ”

Fortunately, Lu Feng's mind was quick, his body flashed, and he dodged the flying stones, but the vicious words fell on him defenselessly.

The stone gurgled and rolled twice on the ground and landed at Mu Jingzhao's feet, Mu Jingzhao lowered his head, looked at the stone for a long time, and did not speak.

Over there, the vicious curse continued, "You big guys are just some beast-hearted babies!" I want to look noble and good-hearted, and I am reluctant to pay out of my pocket to buy a few good words, how can there be such a cost-effective thing! ”

"yes, yes! You rich people's hearts, you are really vicious! ”

"If you hadn't taken the money, we wouldn't have ended up where we are today!"

The surrounding voices rang out in unison, and Jiang Ning realized that this area was full of homeless people in tattered clothes, the younger ones were still nursing in their mother's arms, and the older ones were already about seventy or eighty years old.

Everybody is skinny and unclothed.

Lu Feng blushed in the burst of insults, but he still didn't reply because of the faces of these people.

Seeing that the insults were rising higher and higher, Mu Jingzhao's face was really a little unbearable.

These people's words seem to be insulting the rich, but in fact, every word falls on Mu Jingzhao.

These insults sound like resentment and lack of logic, but if you look at it carefully, it doesn't mean that people like Mu Jingzhao enjoy the taxes paid by the people and live a luxurious and carefree life, but they are indifferent when the people are in dire straits
