Chapter 048: Trouble
"It stands to reason that there are not many sick refugees entering the city right now, and there shouldn't be a food rush so soon!"
Xia Yunxian also received the news here, she looked at the longer and longer line in front of her suspiciously, in addition to hope in their eyes, there was also the fear of being denied, who would dare to make trouble at the feet of the Son of Heaven in this situation?
"The slave and maid also feel strange, if they have this strange disease, they should not all lie on their stomachs, how can they have the strength to do such bad things that have lost their conscience! Aren't they afraid of being kicked out of Kyoto and not being cured? ”
As soon as Chunxiao reminded, Xia Yunxian suddenly had an alarm bell in his heart!
Mist bombs?!
At this time, several brightly dressed men in the crowd attracted Xia Yunxian's attention, only to see their eyes locked on the porridge shed, and then they looked at the palace guards with fear, refusing to leave.
"Chunxiao, immediately let the dining room cook the porridge a little thinner, and then mix it with some gravel."
"Princess, why is this?!" Chunxiao couldn't help but be surprised, since he wanted to give porridge, how could he let the patient eat such a thing?
Xia Yunxian's expression was extremely serious, "Soon you will know!" ”
Seeing that there were more and more people in the back alleys of the Hou Mansion, the patients who had drunk the porridge and received the medicine were squatting in the corners as if they had been reborn, and their quiet appearance did not dare to cause chaos was diametrically opposed to the rumors.
Xia Yunxian still remembered that at that time, everyone said that the refugees who had the plague burned, killed, tortured and plundered all kinds of evil, and the government suppressed them for a long time before they were completely wiped out!
If her guess is true, then in the previous life, these old and weak, sick and disabled people obviously did nothing, but they were going to be hacked to death as mobs, and the real people behind the scenes were at large!
They just want to survive, and they are not even careful to make noise when they speak, what's wrong with them?!
A carriage stopped not far away, and two guards respectfully came to Xia Yunxian.
"Princess, my prince heard about your good deeds, so many patients are not well nested in the alley, why don't you place them in the training ground in the western suburbs, and set up the porridge shed and medicine shed there, what do you think?"
Xia Yunxian raised her eyes and saw that the prince of Pingnan in the carriage was bowing slightly at her to show her approval.
"In that case, the refugees of the Yunxian Dynasty thank you to the prince!"
As soon as the words fell, there was a burst of angry abuse in the team.
"Damn, what kind of porridge is this? How can you Yongding Marquis Mansion give people such a ghost thing, do you want to sell your reputation and reputation? ”
I saw that the man slammed the bowl in his hand to the ground, and rushed into the shed with a gesture, scooped the spoon that snatched the maidservant girl and scooped it into the pot, and said loudly in anger.
"Look at it! There are only a few grains of rice, and the bottom is full of gravel, so don't pretend to be a good person if you can't give up the silver! ”
Someone immediately chimed in, "Yes, if you eat a bad stomach, can you afford to pay for it?" ”
Everyone couldn't help but look at each other, they looked down at the porridge in their bowls, and hesitated whether to eat it or not.
The guards were about to make a move, but they were stopped by Xia Yunxian.
She looked at the troublemakers with a blank face, and then smiled softly.
"Big brothers, my porridge shed is set up for patients, you have hands and feet, you are well-dressed, you don't look like refugees, and you are embarrassed to come to grab porridge to eat?"
The eyes of those people flickered, and they quickly scolded again, "We see that you are deliberate, feeding the patient as a pig, right?" Even pigs don't eat this thing! ”
However, Xia Yunxian was not annoyed, "Are you not used to eating, do you need to add some more abalone and ginseng wings?" I'm here to heal the sick and save people, not to raise moths! ”
Now that the grain grabbing in Beijing is well known, there will naturally be people with unscrupulous intentions eyeing the porridge shack here!
They are young and strong, and they are free from diseases and disasters, so if they are well fed, then what is the problem?
If you don't use some means, I'm afraid that there will be more scoundrels coming to grab food, and then where can these real patients rob them?
"I, we are refugees, but we haven't gotten sick yet, who doesn't know that the princess of the Yongding Marquis Mansion has money, and she can let us eat fragrant rice porridge, but she wants to humiliate people so much!"
They began to encourage the sick next to them, "The child is still so young, if she chokes on the grit in the porridge, she is killing someone!" ”
The old woman looked at her young grandson in her arms, and suddenly became a little worried.
"Not sick yet? The first symptom of the infected person is that his throat is hoarse, you are so full of energy, and then look at the clothes on your body, how many refugees here can afford to wear them? ”
"This time, there are frequent strange diseases in various places, how much suffering they have suffered all the way to the capital, how long have they been hungry, who will be as picky as you? It's not cornered, why rob others of their lives! ”
Xia Yunxian spoke sharply, and when he heard this, the refugees suddenly realized, and their emotions immediately became excited.
"You guys are so shameless! Even though there is something to eat, they came to grab our porridge! ”
"The princess did the right thing, not to mention the gravel, even if there is only rice soup, we will be grateful to Dade!"
"There are so many powerful people in Beijing, only the princess cares about our life and death, why did you mean to wronged her so much, get out! Get out! ”
For a while, the refugees who were originally squatting in the corner stood up one after another, protecting Xia Yunxian Tuan Tuan behind them, their eyes were sprayed with anger, and their expressions seemed to be about to eat people!
King Pingnan in the carriage watched this scene from afar, and her heart was extremely touched, she was young, and in the face of the questioning and provocation of those ruffians, she was still able to unite the people's hearts in the face of danger, which is rare!
He gave a look, and the palace guards suddenly stepped forward, "Escort them away!" ”
The faces of the men changed, "Why are you arresting people?" It's her planning to harm people and take her away! ”
The palace guards led by him smiled contemptuously, "The mob that snatched the rice and grain just ran away, presumably you are accomplices, don't talk nonsense, all of them will be escorted away and tortured!" ”
Seeing that the situation was not right, how could a few troublemakers dare to stay longer, but it was too late to escape, and they were just about to scatter and were pressed to the ground fiercely!
"Spare your life! Spare your life! We just want to eat, we really don't have to grab the food shop-"
The movement here made the ordinary people in the crowd who had planned to come to eat porridge together immediately change their minds, these sick refugees were about to die, how could they eat sand porridge together?
And there is also the risk of going to prison, which is really worth the loss!
Xia Yunxian looked at the backs of those departing foolishly, and secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
"Today, the princess of this world gives medicine and porridge, not for good names, just because as a doctor, you can't see death without help! It is impossible to estimate how many sick refugees will come to Beijing in the future. ”
"In order to help one more, we can only make this decision, everyone is from a poor background, I believe that we will be able to overcome the current predicament and tide over the difficulties together!"
In the dark, Bai Yujing wiped a handful of smoked stains on his face, and looked at Xia Yunxian in front of him who had stabilized the overall situation, and actually showed a slightly disappointed look.
"Lord Ben seems to be late, you said that Uncle Pingnan Wang is not small, what are you doing to make a fuss?"
The secret guards beside him were speechless for a while, they were all disgraced, they had just finished fighting fires in a few grain shops, and they immediately rushed over to help their master hero save the beauty.
Which Cheng thought, don't give them a chance to play at all!
"My lord really wants to impress the princess, and a few of us will also go to eat some porridge and scold people, what do you think?"
"Your idea could be a little more rancid?"
Bai Yujing glared at him with disdain, and then whispered in his ear.
"......" The dark guard's face froze, my lord, are you sure this idea is not bad?"
