After all, when people are about to starve to death and can't live, they don't care if it's moral or immoral to do so.

Their appeal is simple, they just want to live.

Stay alive......

Song Anning's face became extremely serious.

Xu Qingsong was still there, and sighed to himself, and only said to Song Anning after half a sound: "Miss Song, don't worry, Qingzhou has me Xu Qingsong in one day, and I won't let Qingzhou become what Master Pei is worried about, a refugee...... Alas, the refugees will not be relieved in the first place. ”

Song Anning's eyebrows moved.

Nodding.

"Thank you, Lord Xu."

"You're welcome."

After leaving the prefect's yamen, Song Anning was about to go home, but was intercepted by Song Hexing who rushed in on the way.

Song Hexing breathed a sigh of relief when he saw her.

"Dad, what's wrong with you? Running sweaty. ”

She asked curiously as she dragged Song Hexing into the carriage.

Song Hexing wiped the sweat from his forehead, waved his hand and said, "Don't mention it, I thought you should have arrived in a few days, and I have been sending people to keep an eye on the city gate, but the little guy said that as soon as you came back, you went to the prefect's yamen first, I thought about how big a problem this should be, so I hurried over to find you." ”

Song Anning looked at his father's frightened expression, and was extremely moved in his heart, but he smiled on his face.

"Dad, look at you, you are the richest merchant in the whole Qingzhou, even the prefect wants to give you some face, my daughter is just going over there for a trip, why are you worried about this?"

Her father is like that, too honest.

If it is another state or county, after doing business to his father's part, it is inevitable that officials and businessmen will collude to seek benefits.

But what about his father?

There are a lot of filial piety paid every year, but I still don't dare to get involved in a lawsuit, for fear that my family will have three long and two short.

Song Anning sighed in his heart, but also couldn't help but feel admired.

Song Hexing shook his head.

"We are for the people, and people are officials, and many things can be clearly drawn or delineated well, so as not to be affected if there is an accident."

Song Anning's eyes flashed.

Yes, my father was right.

The Dayuan Dynasty is no different from other dynasties, especially since the current emperor took office, first strictly grasped corruption from top to bottom, and later set up an embroidery department to supervise hundreds of officials, even local officials.

The embroidery division is personally supervised by the emperor's nephew Pei Qingyan, the discipline is strict and the means are iron-fisted, so naturally no one dares to form a gang, so every year there are dozens of dog officials who are found out by the embroidery department, and the blood under the tiger head gate has not been broken.

There was a reason why my father refused to have a deep friendship with them.

But Song Anning was surprised.

It stands to reason that according to today's approach, it should be a Ming Jun, and the world should get better and better under his governance, why is it getting more and more chaotic?

She raised this doubt and asked Song Hexing.

Song Hexing's face was terrified, and he covered her mouth.

"Don't you want to die?! What is your identity, you dare to talk about the government and politics, be careful of being listened to, and ask for your head. ”

Song Anning: "......"

She was a little speechless and touched her nose.

"Dad, there are just the two of us in this carriage, who will hear it?"

Song Hexing still refused to say more.

"When we are ordinary people, we must ask what we should ask, don't ask what we shouldn't ask, okay, instead of thinking about those profound truths, we should think about what delicious food your mother prepared after returning home at noon today? Hehe, your mother hasn't been cooking for a long time, and today you came back, and she had such a big face to let her go to the kitchen, I was really looking forward to it, I think the three treasure cakes made by your mother back then were delicious......"

Song Hexing rubbed his hands, his face full of excitement and expectation.

Song Anning looked at his father like this, and suddenly felt that it was not bad to live like his father.

At least I have my mother with me, and I have my favorite things to do, life events, but that's it.

The group soon arrived at Song's house.

Shen Jiao really cooked a meal at home and waited for them.

The family finished eating happily, and then Song Anning called the eldest brother and second brother, as well as his father and mother, to the study to talk about what happened in Beijing during his trip.

She didn't want to hide it from her family.

After all, even if she hid those things, they would know about them sooner or later.

And if the world is really in chaos, she hopes that her family will at least have the ability to protect themselves, so that she can't hide it from them.

Song Anning told his family what he had seen and heard along the way.

After finishing speaking, she looked at Song Hexing.

"Dad, in the past few years, you have been walking outside, you should have also discovered that there has been a trend of gradual chaos in the world, which cannot be changed by one person, today I went to the prefect's yamen, but also to send a letter to the prefect, someone suggested that he accumulate grain and build a high wall."

Song Hexing was stunned for a moment and asked, "Did Master Pei order it?" ”

Song Anning nodded.

The whole study fell silent at once.

No one spoke.

Everyone understands too well that if these words come from Pei Qingyan's mouth, what does it mean.

Pei Qingyan is in charge of the Embroidery Division, not only supervising hundreds of officials, but also collecting intelligence from all over the world.

Even if he said this, would the facts change?

Song Hexing lowered his face and said in a half-loud voice: "It seems that this world is really going to be chaotic." ”

Song Helan said: "Father, should we reduce our business outside?" If the world is really chaotic, everyone walks outside, but they are afraid that it will not be safe. ”

Shen Jiao agreed.

"Yes, in fact, the business in Qingzhou alone is enough for us to be busy, if there is a real war, it is not peaceful outside, and we can't do things that have a life to make money and not a life to spend."

"Yes."

Song Xingzhi also agreed.

Song Anning shook his head.

"It's true that you can't go to the north, the Li family is reversed, that side will inevitably fall into dire straits, the war has now spread to Youzhou, I see that this kind of development continues, even if those thieves enter Beijing, it is not necessarily. But the south is still very safe, this world is in chaos, I don't know how many years it will be chaotic, nothing else can be had, but there must be food, Dad, I plan to take advantage of this time, go to the south for a trip, and buy more food back. ”

Song Hexing's face changed greatly.

"No, you have a daughter's house, how can you go to the south alone?"

The two brothers, Song Helan and Song Xingzhi, also objected.

Shen Jiao said: "Just buy food for your father and brother to go, you don't go out, although I often teach you that men and women are the same on weekdays, but in troubled times, women are still vulnerable to more dangers than men, plus your father and brother have been walking outside for many years and are more experienced than you, don't be reckless at this time, good." ”

Shen Jiao touched her daughter's hand.

Of course, Song Anning understood her mother's kindness.
