Chapter 281: Jushou Winter Rain

Usually in winter, Jushou is not as wet and cold as the south, but it is not as dry and cold as the north, but it is more comfortable. It's just that I don't know why, in the past few days, the heavy rain has not stopped.

The continuous heavy rain has turned Jushou into winter in the south, and there are almost no pedestrians on the streets, and they are all hurrying home.

There was a coal stove in the house, but it didn't do much.

For the first time, a beggar in Jushou City was frozen to death.

This is far from the capital of Chu, and some people are frozen to death, even if they are homeless beggars, it is enough to shock the government and the opposition.

In Xicheng District, Wu Shuang carried a bag of crushed coal from the coal shop and rushed to his home along the eaves of the street.

Crushed coal is much cheaper than a whole piece of coal, equivalent to leftovers, and burns faster than a whole piece of coal, and the price is cheaper.

Wu Shuang returned home, poured half a bag in the corner of the room, and the other half was picked up by her, came to the next door, and knocked on the door.

After a long time, the door opened, and a thin figure opened the door, revealing a slightly pale face inside, "It's Sister Wu Shuang, why are you here?"

"Sister Liu Qing, this winter is very wet and cold, I still have half a bag of broken coal, you take it first, you can't freeze in this difficult winter, otherwise you will fall ill." Wu Shuang struggled a little and hugged half a bag of crushed coal into it.

"It's too expensive, you wait a minute, I'll get you the silver. Liu Qing's face was pale, which was even more pitiful, she looked like she was sick.

Wu Shuang stopped Liu Qing, "Sister Liu Qing, if you don't want to go, why don't you invite me into the house to drink a cup of hot water." ”

"That'...... Then come in......" Liu Qing hesitated for a moment, but still led Wu Shuang to the inner room.

When the two came to the back room, Liu Qing poured a cup of hot water and handed it to Wu Shuang, "Let the girl smile, the hut is too simple." ”

Wu Shuang shook his head and took a sip of tea, "Sister Liu Qing, has your lover ever come back?"

Her big black and white eyes full of aura looked at the weak Liu Qing.

Liu Qing was stunned for a moment, and then shook his head slightly bitterly, "No ......"

"Isn't it...... Dead ......" Wu Shuang lowered her head, as if she didn't have the courage to raise her head again, how could she not know who Liu Qing's lover was? That morning, the white dress went out of the city, she had been guarding there, and naturally saw Liu Qing Fuqin.

Liu Qing looked at Wu Shuang, how could she not know that Wu Shuang also went to see off Su Heng that morning?" ”

"If she dies, Sister Liu Qing can quickly find a good family to marry. Wu Shuang seemed to muster up the courage and said softly, "It's better to marry a good family than now, lonely and helpless, my sister is weak and needs someone to take care of ......."

"What about my sister?" Liu Qing did not take Wu Shuang's words, but suddenly asked Wu Shuang.

Wu Shuang was silent for a while, and she suddenly smiled and said, "My sister is still comfortable living alone......

"My sister too. Liu Qing also said with a smile.

The two of them sat quietly, and the crushed coal in the room began to burn, which was a lot warmer, and suddenly Liu Qing coughed a few times, and then the whole person was about to collapse from the chair.

Wu Shuang hurriedly stepped forward to help Liu Qing up, and saw a strange flush floating on Liu Qing's face, she reached out and touched it, "Oh, sister, you have a fever, do you still have herbs at home?"

Liu Qing shook her head weakly.

Wu Shuang hurriedly helped Liu Qing to lie on the bed, "Sister, you rest for a while, I'll go get you medicine!"

After speaking, Wu Shuang grabbed the oil-paper umbrella outside the door and rushed into the heavy rain.

There were very few pedestrians on the streets, and Wu Shuang was very fast, regardless of the fact that his clothes were soaked in the rain.

Just as she turned the street, she didn't notice a person in a cloak and was about to crash into it.

"Girl, be careful......" The man avoided Wu Shuang, said a word, and then walked into the tavern on the street.

Wu Shuang apologized again and again, and then continued to run towards the pharmacy.

The man in the robe walked into the tavern, took off his coat, shook the rain, hung it on the iron nails under the eaves, patted the water stains on his body, lifted the curtain and walked in.

"Why are you here today?" said the shopkeeper of the tavern, glancing at the visitor.

"Elder Zhang, bring me two taels of peach blossoms to get drunk. This person hugged his fist at the shopkeeper, this shopkeeper was none other than the former prime minister Zhang Miangong.

"What's the big deal again?"

"Elder Zhang forgives the crime, this matter still needs to be kept secret. The man confessed his sin and went to the innermost part.

Zhang Miangong smiled, got drunk with two peach blossoms, and brought a plate of peanuts with him, "How is the war in the north?"

This matter is not a secret, the person who came said with a smile, "The northern war situation will not be anything serious for a while, and the battle of the legion will take a while, and in a short time, I am afraid that it will also be dominated by small-scale encounters." ”

"I heard that His Majesty is going to build a god platform?" Zhang Miangong suddenly said.

"Where did Mr. Zhang hear that?"

"Although I'm old, I'm not blind, and since last month, construction has begun outside the city, how can this kind of thing be hidden from others?" Zhang Miangong also poured himself a small glass of wine, "Your Majesty did not deliberately hide the matter of Fengshentai, but some people began to spread the word to the gods, and the hearts of Jushou people are a little unstable." ”

"Please also ask Mr. Zhang to make it clear. ”

"Some people say that gods can be sealed on the god platform, and when the time comes, His Majesty the Emperor will divide the gods of the world, and then His Majesty will be the Emperor of Heaven, and the court will become the ...... of Heaven."

"Where is this? I am not afraid of being arrested by His Majesty, the Fengshentai is indeed going to be a god, but it is not to open the heavenly court, but to divide the world's mountain gods, water gods, and land gods, in order to leave Chu Feng and the rain smooth, the formal significance is greater than the practical significance...... "The person who came shook his head and said.

"I hope so. Zhang Miangong sighed, "I heard that there seems to be a force in Jushou City, which is bewitching the people's hearts, and some people are rumoring that the gods will use the lives of ordinary people as sacrifices......"

As soon as these words came out, the man who was still drinking wine slowly hurriedly put down his wine glass, "This is a big rebellion, if it is really going to be spread, I am afraid that not only will the life be unstable, but the world will be in turmoil!"

"Therefore, I still want Lord Liu to say a few more words in the morning tomorrow morning, so as not to shake the country's foundation. When Zhang Miangong said this, he didn't continue, and just at the door of the tavern, someone lifted the curtain and walked straight here.

"People are coming, you talk first. Zhang Miangong walked to the counter slowly, and the person who came in also hurriedly saluted, and then walked into the innermost.

The tavern was silent, and even the two people who were talking inside lowered their voices, and were about to bring their ears together.

The two of them had been talking for half an hour, and the second man who came in hurried away.

Only this Lord Liu was still slowly chewing peanuts.

"Is there something wrong with the war situation in the north?"

"I can't hide anything from Zhang Lao. This Lord Liu smiled bitterly, "The old guys in Beiji have made a moth again, and the newly formed disarmament army is probably going to use knives against them." ”
