The wrinkled instep, bare, slowly walked in the morning light. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

It was still a little cold at the beginning of spring, and the cold floor tiles made the old man who walked barefoot unconscious, only a white single shirt and trousers, stained with blood, his right hand was wrapped in a bandage, his face was expressionless, and his eyebrows were full of sadness. The old man lowered his head and muttered incomprehensible syllables in the air.

There were people coming and going on the streets, and no one paid attention to such a beggar, but he couldn't stand the smell of blood on his body to cover his mouth and nose.

"That man is a little familiar..."

“.... How beggars began to appear here .... What do the people of the street division do to eat? ”

Someone wanted to go up, walked a few steps and frowned, then retreated, glanced at the old man walking aimlessly in the middle of the street, and immediately turned to leave. Behind the finger and talk, vaguely made the walking figure tremble, the head was lowered, and while walking, he found a few people in the alley, sat down against the wall, and cried.

The vendors who walked through the streets and alleys passed by, looked at him strangely, some people sneered and spat on him, some people stopped and maybe saw an old man crying there alone, and some were a little sad, that is, they lost something in front of each other.

Smack-

A piece of bread, which was almost finished, fell not far from the old man's feet. Cai Jing choked up, saw the small piece of cake at his feet, stopped crying, and stretched out his only intact palm tremblingly.

The old man has not eaten a drop of water for a day.

....

Outside the streets and alleys, in the midst of the crowd, a fan was about to go over and take away the broken cake, Liu Jin grabbed the shoulder of the person next to him and shook his fingers, "..... No need for you to go. ”

He looked over, and on the opposite side of his gaze, in the dark corners of the streets, a figure rushed out, snatching the small piece of bread on the ground in his hand, and the old man rushed over, and the beggar, who was dressed in rags, with messy hair, and was covered with dirt and foul smell, kicked the figure away viciously, opened his mouth and ate the cake into his mouth, and swallowed his stomach.

Then he glared fiercely at the old man who was limp on the ground, turned around and hid in a dark corner and lay down, scratching lice, as if waiting for the night to come.

"Woo... Yes.. Ahhh Woo..."

On the ground, Cai Jing whimpered and cried hoarsely, his fingerless palms wrapped around the ground and patted, blood oozing out of the bandages and flowing on the ground, his body shrunk and rolled, and he cried heartbreakingly.

Outside the alley, Liu Jin, who was watching this scene, narrowed his eyes: "Right Phase.... Today's right minister has fallen to the point where even beggars can be bullied, tsk..."

The deputy nodded, sneering disdainfully: "It's not good to offend anyone, I want to offend the overseer, what a good person our overseer's wife, I'm waiting to kill outside, but these literati are making ghosts behind their backs, and the ladies are gone, if it were me, I would have to peel the skin and cramp." ”

"You? Take care of yourself. Forget it, don't talk about this old guy, you keep an eye on it, our family is going to eat, don't let this guy eat a little, the overseer said that he will starve to death, so he can't die on anything else. ”

"Lord Baihu can rest assured that the brothers still know something. ”

Liu Jin nodded, and turned around with a few fans and went to a nearby restaurant. The deputy beckoned, "Spread out, wait for someone to come to work, you keep an eye on it first, let's go to the tea shop to drink a glass of water, it's convenient and convenient." ”

"Yes!" his men bowed.

.......

Jinliang Bridge, on the other side of the alley.

What happened in the dark corner, no one paid attention to the past on the street full of morning light, on the second floor of the tea shop opposite, Cai Yu, one of the sons of the old man, was holding the teacup, and opposite him sat a woman, wearing red flowers, wearing a red blouse, the skirt was dragging on the instep, and her delicate face was frowning, a little more sad.

However, the man opposite her had no intention of appreciating it.

"My dad... He.... How could those eunuchs in Dongchang do such a thing.... Too much deception. ”

In the indignation, Cai Yu's voice was a little louder, so that a few people in the adjacent seat looked over, kicked him at the woman who was sitting, and lowered his voice: "Seventh Master is cautious.... On that day, Dongchang entered the mansion to arrest people, and when my husband and I heard the movement, it was already too late, so we immediately escaped from the backyard of the mansion to look for you, lest you be captured by the eunuchs of Dongchang. Now Cai Xiang is surrounded by fans from Dongchang, and if you go up, you must fall into the trap of the other party, before you, several Cai Xiang's protégés have been arrested. ”

"What can I do about it?" Cai put down the teacup in a cracked tooth, buried his head in low tears, and didn't dare to look at the down-and-out figure in the alley, "My Cai family is full of doors.... It's over!"

Cai Jing, who had infinite scenery, suddenly fell, which no one could have predicted, and even many people had not yet reacted, and things had become unshakable.

It makes people stunned and frightened.

When the other party spoke, the eyes of the safflower ghost mother kept looking at the crying figure in front of her, showing a look of annoyance, but there was a smile on her face: "The seventh master should not be so depressed, as long as Cai Xiang still has descendants, there will always be a day of rehabilitation, and my husband knows a secret of Dongchang, as long as you can go out and raise your arms, the righteous people on the rivers and lakes will naturally seek justice for the lives of hundreds of people in Cai's house." ”

"What's the secret?" Cai Yu raised his head violently.

"Let's go out of the city, today the new emperor ascends the throne, the Jurchen has retreated, and the city gate will be open for three hours, which is the time to escape from Bianliang. ”

"Okay! Cai Yu's net worth and life will be entrusted to the two, he can redress the grievances of Cai's mansion one day, and he should repay the two with the position of the prime minister's mansion. ”

Aunt Gongsun smiled and nodded. It was with Cai Yu who got off the teahouse and quietly disappeared at the back door, stepping into the street that led to the west gate.

Soon after, near the Xinzheng Gate, a large number of traders and people who wanted to leave the city were congested and waiting for the city gate to open.

"Where is Mr. King? Why didn't I see him. ”

"My husband is nearby, and for his face is a little disfigured, and he is easily recognizable with his silk cloth, and now he must be hiding under one of these carriages. ”

"I see... It's a lot of worry. ”

The morning light rose, and gold spread over the city.

In the direction of the imperial city, there was a bell.

"Open the gates—" The herald shouted to the soldiers below as the herald shouted from the tower.

The soldiers holding the long ge stopped the crowd to maintain order, and the heavy city gate slowly opened with a clattering sound as the thick bolt was opened, and slowly opened under the vigorous push of the sergeant.

"In and out of town.... Listen, there have been bandits who have infiltrated the city recently, just to interrogate you!" The sergeant guarding the door exhaled and emphasized for a moment.

Suddenly, in the team out of the city, a female voice shouted: "There are anti-thieves here, Cai Xuan of the Cai family is here-"

In the crowd, Cai Yu's eyes widened and he looked at the woman who made a voice beside him, and pointed over with trembling hands, "You... You.... Viciously ....." at the moment of exit, dozens of sergeants on the other side of the city gate rushed over following the sound, and the crowd suddenly became chaotic.

The woman immediately called a carriage and rushed out of the city gate taking advantage of the chaos, and more merchants and people rushed out behind her, separating the chaos of the other team that wanted to enter the city.

In the midst of the chaos, a woman was hit by a figure walking out quickly.

The man next to her immediately rushed up to hold her up, "Master... Are you alright, are you hurting anything?"

The woman shook her head, looked at the towering city gate tower, and suddenly showed a trace of inexplicable timidity, "I don't know.... Yi'er still doesn't recognize her mother.... Shi Shi was a little afraid to go in. ”

Master Li looked sad.
