Chapter 312: Honey
After coming to Peng, Lu Yunzhou sat down suddenly.
"Miss Qin, homeless people are generally more sensitive, which will scare them, let's sit down and watch the scenery!"
Qin Qing looked at Lu Yunzhou curiously, and seeing his confident face, he couldn't help but suppress his strong curiosity, and asked, "How would Gongzi Qi know that the person who came was a wanderer?"
Lu Yunzhou turned his head and smiled, watched Qin Qing lean over and sit down with his knees crossed, and said in a wink: "Miss Qin, the secret of heaven must not be revealed!"
Qin Qing wrinkled his nose a little deflated, very cute, seeing Lu Yunzhou's unfathomable appearance, he felt angry and funny, he couldn't help but smile and moved his eyes into the distance, and didn't ask much, just quietly looked at the end of the plain, watching the black spots in the distance gradually get bigger.
In the sight of the two, the group of people in the distance gradually became clear, and it was really the group of homeless people that Lu Yunzhou saw in the small jade boat.
Qin Qingtan's mouth opened slightly, a look of shock appeared in his bright eyes, and he turned his head to look at Lu Yunzhou on the side in disbelief.
Lu Yunzhou's heart was dark, but his face showed a calm and clear appearance, and he worked hard to maintain the bearing of a dedicated god.
At the same time that the two of them saw the group of homeless people, the homeless people also saw the two people sitting on the hillock.
The face of the leader of the outcasts in front of him changed, and he appeared vigilant, and hurriedly gestured for everyone to stop.
The leader of the displaced people looked carefully for a long time, and saw that the two people on the top of the hill seemed to be watching the scenery, a man and a woman, unable to see their faces clearly, the man wore a high crown, wearing a purple and black robe, and the woman was wearing a plain white long skirt, the leader of the displaced people hesitated, he didn't know that the purple and black robe was the official uniform of Qi State, he felt that the top of the hill might be a pair of lovers watching the scenery, the leader of the wanderers breathed a sigh of relief, made a gesture, and the team continued to move forward.
Five miles further on, there is the junction of Qi and Wei.
Although the outcasts were weak, they did not walk slowly, and in a short time they came to the foot of the hill.
The leader of the exiles cautiously stopped at the foot of the hill and saluted the two of them with a fist salute to Lu Yunzhou, while the refugees behind looked dazed.
Lu Yunzhou was a little surprised, he didn't expect that the leader of the homeless people was quite polite, and Qin Qing looked at each other and smiled, and the two also stood up and saluted the homeless people from afar.
The leader of the homeless people was completely relieved at this time, led the people up to the hillock, nodded politely to the two of them, and passed by the two.
Shocking protrusions!
When the outcasts climbed over the top of the hill and saw the barracks below, all of them had a look of extreme horror on their faces, and they suddenly screamed, and all of them began to retreat in fear, and then staggered in the direction they had come from.
During the escape, many people accidentally fell and rolled down the hillock.
Lu Yunzhou and Qin Qing looked surprised, they didn't understand why these homeless people were so frightened when they saw the military camp under the hill?
Qin Qing saw a child in front of him fall to the ground, his nose was bleeding, and he was lying on the ground crying "wow", and hurriedly rushed forward with his skirt to support the child.
Lu Yunzhou was afraid that she would have an accident, so he hurriedly strode forward and followed Qin Qing's side, and helped the fallen child with her.
"Don't be afraid, look, my sister will give you honey!"
Qin Qing showed a beautiful smile, took out a small cloth bag from the cloth bag around his waist, took out a piece of maltose called "glutton" in this era, and put it in front of the child who kept crying.
The child sniffled, his eyes lit up, and he took the honey-filled maltose and put it in his mouth.
The leader of the homeless people kept pulling up the fallen homeless people in front, and anxiously whispered in the local language of the country to quiet these homeless people, so as not to attract the attention of the officers and soldiers on the other side of the hill, Lu Yunzhou saw that the child was fine, so he also got up and stepped forward to help pick up the fallen person.
Seeing Lu Yunzhou and Qin Qing helping, the leader of the exiles had a look of hesitation on his face, and finally thanked Lu Yunzhou with a fist: "Thank you for the kindness of the son and the girl!"
Lu Yunzhou was proficient in various Chinese, and when he heard him speak a patriotic official language, he raised his eyebrows with some curiosity and asked: "This benevolent brother, listening to your accent, it doesn't look like an ordinary country homeless, I don't know what your situation is? Why are you suddenly so frightened when you see the military camp below?"
The leader of the exiles smiled bitterly: "I'm afraid that this prince is from a foreign country, right? Gongzi doesn't know, in our defense of the country, there are countless exorbitant taxes and miscellaneous taxes, the court loots the people every year, and the army is even more terrible than the bandits. After the robbers crossed the border and looted, they would leave us some rations so that they could come next time; but if they ran into Wei Jun's army, the destruction of our families would be light! It was precisely because these officers and soldiers were forced to live in the country that we were forced to abandon our hometown, flee from the country, and go to the neighboring country of Qi to find another way to make a living!"
At this time, Qin Qing also pulled the child over, and when he heard this, a look of anger appeared on his pretty face, and he frowned and said: "Wei Jun allowed his soldiers to disturb the people so much, he is really a complete faint king!"
The leader of the exiles showed a look of panic on his face, and said sincerely: "The villain thanks this girl for speaking up, but please be cautious, this place is so close to the guards, don't get into trouble, now we must leave immediately, as long as we flee to the territory of Qi State, the guards will have nothing to do with us!"
Lu Yunzhou groaned: "It turns out that you want to defect to the Qi country!" After thinking about it, in order to be sure, Lu Yunzhou pointed to the black smoke in the depths of the jungle and asked, "This benevolent brother, do you know what the black smoke is about?"
A look of pain appeared on the face of the leader of the exiles, and he replied: "That is our village, but we can no longer live in the defense of the country, in order to make up our minds, I will burn this village with my own hands, even if we leave, we will not leave anything for the guards!"
At the end of the sentence, there was a deep hatred in the eyes of the leader of the exiles.
Lu Yunzhou asked again: "The Tao County of the Qin State on the other side of Pushui is a first-class rich land in the world, why don't you go to the Tao County, but go to the Qi State?"
The leader of the exiles shook his head and said, "Although there are many rich merchants and magnates in Tao County, these rich people will not care about the life or death of our poor people. The reason why we made up our minds to defect to Qi was because we heard travelers in the past mention that Qi had recently engaged in something called the 'tuntian system', recruiting displaced people from all over the world, dividing land and land, and exempting rent and taxes. These days, many of us have defected to defend the country, so we have moved our minds!"
Lu Yunzhou suddenly realized that it was still the influence of his own tuntian system.
