King Leng Chases His Wife: Meng Concubine Wants to Climb the Wall

Chapter 429
Early the next morning, Su Jing took Meng Yu to a famous town in the south of the Yangtze River, called Lianshui Town, without the sheriff to lead the way. She asked along the way, and heard that this is the place with the worst floods every year. So naturally it's here.

Meng Yu was silent all the way, naturally no one talked with Su Jing, but the further he walked, the more Su Jing's heart sank.The small town washed by the flood looked dilapidated, and the streets along the way were full of people's grievances and curses.

"Is being an emperor a waste? Our town is like this, so there is no kingly law?"

"Shh, keep your voice down, didn't that Li Ergouzi go to the capital to file a complaint in the early years? Later, he was directly clicked by some adult, don't you want to live?"

"That's right, don't even see the emperor's face, your life will be gone."

"The emperor eats delicious food and drinks spicy food every day, and takes the hard-earned money of the people to do nothing, right?"

The more the man talked, the more angry he became. After the flood, his family's crops were all destroyed, but he still had to pay taxes. Should be a real farmer.

As soon as Su Jing entered the town, he heard various discussions about Mu Yuanqi.

To be honest, Mu Yuanqi is already a very frugal emperor. He is not very interested in delicacies from mountains and seas. On the contrary, he prefers some ordinary food, and every time he gets hungry, he naturally goes to the Sheng'an Palace for a meal. After a meal, there was really no extravagance and waste.

Maybe many people can't think of it. His Majesty the emperor doesn't like mountain delicacies, but prefers potatoes.The national treasury is not abundant. Since Mu Yuanqi ascended the throne, it has actually improved a lot.

Emperors like Mu Yuanqi are actually rare.It's just that the people can't see him, and they can only see him, so naturally there are many complaints. This kind of complaints, the scale of a small piece, is not terrible, what is afraid is that it will spread.

Su Jing walked over and squatted in front of those people. Just as he was about to speak, the man who spoke before stared at Su Jing carefully for a while, and suddenly his eyes lit up and said: "Young master, I think you should be dressed It’s a wealthy family, do you have anything to eat? All the food we eat has been washed away by the water, and now we have to go hungry except for some wild vegetables!!!”

"Yes, when the flood came a few days ago, my mother-in-law was swept away by the water in order to grab the rice bag, and she hasn't found it yet!!"

"Hey, if you have something to eat, give us some, if you don't have anything to eat, just go away."

Su Jing's heart sank suddenly, as if he was pressed down by a stone, his fists in his sleeves were clenched tightly, his eyes were shining when he saw the person in front of him staring at him, he must be extremely hungry, That's when she was treated as a life-saving straw.After thinking about it, Su Jing touched the sign in his sleeve, hesitated for a moment, then suddenly raised his head and said to Meng Yu:
"Meng Yu, take this sign and go to any of Chu Ji's shops and ask them to open a warehouse to release food. I will report to my uncle and the others later."

Originally, Chu Qiang gave this sign to Su Jing just in case. Su Jing believed that if he said that he had nothing to eat today, there would only be two consequences. The thing, or, is to be beaten.However, it doesn't mean that she won't be beaten if she feeds these people.

Meng Yu was startled, lowered his head and said softly: "No, the task of this subordinate is to protect..." Moreover, His Majesty the Emperor has already said that if there is anything wrong with Su Jing, he will go to Princess Sheng'an He, Meng Yutian, was not afraid of complaining, but he was afraid that Princess Sheng'an would be unhappy.He also knew very well in his heart that he, a child from an ordinary poor family, was able to grow up in the mansion of Prince Sheng'an and learn martial arts from An Yan. He started to be a human being, so he naturally didn't want to make those two unhappy or difficult to do.

Seeing that Meng Yu didn't respond for a long time, Su Jing couldn't help but increase his tone: "Meng Yu, you go, I will be fine until you come back."

What Su Jing said and affirmed made people very convincing for no reason.Although Meng Yu wanted to object, he also faintly sensed that something was wrong here.

He is also a person who has been hungry before, and he knows that it is possible for these people to do anything when they are extremely hungry.

Although these people looked like ordinary people, they might have been starved for a long time, and looked like refugees, "Master Su, it is impossible for this subordinate to leave, otherwise you go out, and this subordinate will stay here."

Meng Yu was very stubborn, but Su Jing knew that these people were not so pure and kind.Even if they were once kind-hearted people, if they can't even solve the problem of food and clothing, then what kindness is there?

"Go!! This is an order!!!"

Su Yu issued a death order and asked Meng Yu to open a warehouse to release food. One was because Meng Yu practiced martial arts, and the speed would naturally be faster than her. He should be fine until he comes back.

"Meng Yu, if you don't listen to me, then you don't have to stay."

After being shouted at by Su Jing, Meng Yu gestured towards the dark place, and the two shadow guards stepped back into the distance from Su Jing, becoming more vigilant.

"Fathers and elders, please, I'm going to look for food right now, and please take care of my family."

As Meng Yu spoke, she also mentioned her internal energy, which was released on purpose to let the common people know that he was not easy to mess with.Su Jing wanted to laugh, these people are extremely hungry, how can one or two threats be useful?

Meng Yu glanced at Su Jing hesitantly, then turned her head and disappeared.Compared with An Yan, this speed is probably about the same.

Seeing Meng Yu leaving, the common people surrounded Su Jing one after another. The shadow guard in the dark was about to show up when he was stopped by a gesture from Su Jing.Fighting against the people is undoubtedly beating yourself.

As an official, please remember that water can carry a boat and capsize it. Even if the common people do something to her today, she cannot let the shadow guards do something to the people. Otherwise, within three days, the Great Sage will It will spread that she, Su Jing, instructed her subordinates to attack the common people.Thinking about it this way, Su Jing suddenly felt very lucky. Fortunately, Mu Yuanqi didn't come, otherwise, she would really have a headache.

"Young master, where is Gao if you dare to ask?"

The common people heard that Meng Yu went to find food, and they would not have that much hostility towards Su Jing, so they started to find topics to chat with Su Jing.

Su Jing was stunned for a moment, thinking that if he said that he was from the capital at this time, it would be bad luck, so he smiled slightly and replied: "Young investigator, you can't be regarded as a high-ranking officer."

Anyway, she herself came to check on the disaster situation, so it really wasn't a high job.Besides, what's the use of putting yourself in a high position?

Seeing that Su Jing seemed unwilling to speak, the people nodded and said coldly, "This young master must be coming to Jiangnan for the first time, right?"

Su Jing nodded, it was indeed her first time here, but this time, the impression was deep and the task was extremely heavy.

"Yes, the first time."

"No wonder. Judging by your appearance, you should also be a son of a rich family. You have suffered a lot in places like Jiangnan, right?"

Su Jing shook his head, these are nothing difficult.It's just that these common people's eyes glow red when they look at it, and the visitors are not kind.Su Jing's heart beat faster and faster, but his head became more and more awake.

"It's all because the incumbent is incompetent. I have been suffering from floods in the south of the Yangtze River for so long, and I say that I send people to investigate every year, but who are the people who are sent every year? Is the current incumbent just for free?"

Hearing this, Su Jing frowned, Mu Yuanqi was scolded, and she suddenly felt angry.The south of the Yangtze River has been flooded like this since the previous dynasty. Since the Great Sage opened his dynasty, the floods in the south of the Yangtze River have improved a lot, but they still can't resist the complaints of the people.She also took a brief look in the past two days. The soil in the south of the Yangtze River is soft, and it is extremely easy to be washed away by the rain, and then piled up in the river, affecting dredging.

The expressions of those people were somewhat sarcasm. Looking at Su Jing, one of them spat and scolded viciously: "The emperor's son, die quickly, let me try to be the emperor after I die!!"

"That's right, such an incompetent emperor, he should die quickly!! Save me the hardship!!!"

As soon as the man finished speaking, there was a sudden pain on his face, and he raised his eyes suddenly, and saw a thin and delicate man raising his hand, looking at him coldly, his brows raised, like a woman! !

"Speak with your mouth, clean it up!"

Speaking of which, this was Su Jing's first time beating someone.She has never been so rude in the past, well, to be precise, she will also hurt if she hits someone, she rarely does such stupid things.

She couldn't say why she was so angry, but when she heard the man say to let Mu Yuanqi die quickly, her brain became hot, and when she realized it, she had already made a move.Brows twitched, Su Jing knew that he might not have any good results today.

Sure enough, seeing Su Jing move his hands, the people were immediately angry, stood up and raised their arms and shouted: "Folks, beat me up!! Why can he have a full stomach and wear warm clothes, while we have to starve and suffer cold? Beat!! This voice must be the dog official from the capital!!!"

After finishing speaking, the common people gathered around one after another, and two shadow guards in the dark suddenly appeared, Su Jing frowned, and winked at them, the two looked at each other, and stood there hesitantly.

What Su Jing meant was too obvious.

She told them not to act rashly.

Shadow Guard One: Master Su, let us watch her being beaten?
Shadowguard Two: It seems so.

Shadow Guard [-]: When this group of people makes their move, let's call the flood from behind and try it out.

Shadow Guard One: Why don't you call for food?

After the two agreed, they found an angle where it was easiest to rush in to protect Su Jing and stood there, staring fixedly at the group of people, for fear that they would attack without saying a word.

"Dog officer, it must be because he eats too much delicacies from mountains and seas on weekdays that he grows so thin and tender!!!"

"Dog officer!!!"

The common people rushed forward and rushed towards Su Jing, and their fine fists were about to hit her. At this moment, she just wanted to smile bitterly, but she never expected that the first time she was beaten by Su Jing, it would be such a miserable scene .

But the pain in her body did not come, and the tip of her nose touched a very pleasant smell, very familiar, that smell had appeared in a dream, and she had actually been close to it.too familiar.

Su Jing raised his head slowly, and the person standing in front of him lowered his head, smiled heartlessly at her, and greeted her happily: "Hey, Su Jing, look at what I said Come? Abandon me, but you will suffer retribution."
