Literati Sanctification

Chapter 237
The peddler's tone was full of helplessness, and Heng Xiulin frowned again and again, even a commoner at the lowest level. I really don't know what the situation of Musi has become.

Thinking of this, Heng Xiulin just wanted to inquire about some things, but the peddler waved his hands repeatedly and said.

"Master, it's better to leave as soon as possible. Don't inquire about these things. This is for the sake of the younger one. Let's forget about the meal money today. When I see the young master, I think of the previous young master."

The peddler was obviously a little apprehensive, so he didn't want to continue talking. He immediately waved his hands and said. Hearing these words, Heng Xiulin felt helpless and had no choice but to nod.

"Xiaoyu, pay."

After Heng Xiulin said something, he got up and was about to leave. When Xiaoyu heard what his son said, he took out a tael of silver and handed it to the peddler, "There is no need to look for it. This is the reward for what you said just now."

"Young master, this, this is too much!"

The peddler looked at the silver in his hand, although he was very eager in his heart, but after thinking about it, he still said to Heng Xiulin that some money can be taken, but some money cannot be taken. He saw on Heng Xiulin The shadow of the literati before, so he is unwilling to accept this extra reward.

But Heng Xiulin didn't care so much, he just waved his hand and said, "Take it, it's not easy for you, this little money is nothing more than something outside of me."

Heng Xiulin smiled gently at the peddler, then turned around and left with Xiaoyu, and left towards the front. The peddler saw this scene, although he felt a little embarrassed, but finally put it away, and he felt sorry for Heng Xiulin. Thank you very much.

"Looking at Musi City, it's much more serious than we imagined!"

While walking forward, Heng Xiulin sighed and said, looking at the price of vegetables on the side, Heng Xiulin was a little terrified. If this continues, these common people will starve to death I can't die.

These are the most basic things, and they are all so expensive to buy now, one can imagine how bad the situation here is.

"Yes, my lord, the people here are so pitiful. Look at those green vegetables, they have become so expensive. Compared with those in the imperial city, they are much more expensive. I don't know how the price of the food is. .”

If it is a wealthy family, this little money will naturally not be taken seriously, but for these common people, it will make things worse.

Hearing Xiaoyu's words, Heng Xiulin's heart moved slightly, and then he glanced at the guards following him, and then ordered, "Go and find out, what is the price of grain here now."

The guard heard Heng Xiulin's words, without any hesitation, he just nodded, then turned his head and left. When he left, he also glanced at the three guards behind him, signaling them to take good care of Heng Xiulin.

The three guards naturally understood, nodded immediately, and followed Heng Xiulin's distance, quietly getting closer.

While walking, Heng Xiulin kept checking the situation around him, but if he just checked like this, he didn't find anything wrong. On the face, there is no trace of anger, but more of an appearance of extreme bitterness and hatred.

"My lord, I have already inquired about the grain price."

Heng Xiulin and others didn't walk forward for long, the guard who went to inquire about the news ran back directly, then walked to Heng Xiulin's side, and whispered to Heng Xiulin.

Heng Xiulin's expression changed, and he turned to look at him directly, indicating that he could speak. Seeing this, the guard took a breath, his eyes were full of anger, and then he spoke.

"The price of grain in Musi City has reached the point where a bucket costs one tael of silver!"

The guard's tone was full of anger. You must know that in other places, one tael of silver is enough to buy three or four buckets of grain, but here, it has been tripled or four times. It is no wonder that such a crazy price It was he who was so angry.

When Heng Xiulin heard this, his face turned cold, his eyes were full of chills, and even the price of food has climbed so high, it is enough to know that the people here are probably about to eat. Get those grains!
You know, with the level here, a family can only earn a dozen taels of silver a year, which is already very good, and how can a family eat for a month with this bucket of grain?If there are more people in the family, then there will only be hunger!

Damn guy, such a common people, really looking for death!Heng Xiulin's heart was full of anger, but he knew that it was not the time to do anything, otherwise, he couldn't help but go straight to the yamen, arrest those dog officials directly, and question them carefully. Then cut them off directly!

"Young master, what should we do now, should we do it directly?"

Wang Huining's face on the side was already full of anger. It was obvious that he was extremely chilled by what happened here, so he couldn't wait to make a move.

Hearing this, Heng Xiulin shook his head and said after taking a look at him, "No, it's not yet time, you send a few brothers out to inquire about the situation here, if there is anything or evidence, Save them all and use them when the time comes.”

Hearing what the man said before, Heng Xiulin can almost be sure that the Wang family here has already colluded with the government, and right now this place is a nest of snakes and rats. If they can't find enough evidence, they will be beaten to death with a stick , it will be difficult at that time.

Although Heng Xiulin wished he could just draw his sword and kill all those dirty guys, but in the current situation, Heng Xiulin couldn't do that.

Because once Heng Xiulin does this, it will inevitably cause disaster. After all, it is a family with some background and the city lord, who will kill all the people without any evidence. After that, will they Can this be done?

To do things in the end, one needs to pay attention to evidence, so even if Heng Xiulin is angry right now, he can only control his emotions and suppress all the strong killing intent.

"Yes, the villain will do it immediately."

The guards nodded immediately after hearing what Heng Xiulin said, then turned around and walked in front of the three guards. After they muttered something, one of them was left to continue protecting Heng Xiulin, while the rest dispersed , went to inquire about the news.

"Dengdeng!"

Heng Xiulin and Xiaoyu continued to stroll around the Musi City. It was originally a very crowded crowd, but suddenly there was the sound of horseshoes, and then the people on the side dispersed skillfully to both sides. Heng Xiulin saw In this situation, I was slightly taken aback, but my body was still taken to the sides by the flow of people.

"Get out of the way, don't block my way!"

An extremely arrogant and domineering voice, accompanied by the crisp sound of horseshoes, came directly. Hearing the words, Heng Xiulin looked up subconsciously, and saw a man with a slightly pale face riding a fast horse. The horse rushed towards here extremely rampantly.

Looking at the speed of that fast horse, if you don't dodge it, there is absolutely no possibility of escaping it, but with the speed of this horse, if you hit it, you may not die but will also be disabled!

Thinking of this, Heng Xiulin's face became gloomy. Does this guy want to ignore human life?
"Uncle, who is this man?"

Heng Xiulin turned his head to look, and saw an old man beside him, looking at the man, with an unspeakable anger on his face, with a move in his heart, he walked up to the old man and asked.

Hearing Heng Xiulin's words, the old man came back to his senses and saw Heng Xiulin's clothes, he was slightly stunned for a moment, then looked at Heng Xiulin strangely and said.

"This is the heir of the royal family, Wang Zimin, why don't you know him?"

In this Musi City, there is no one who does not know him. After all, a domineering person, whoever sees this person, will hide if he can. It's definitely bad luck.

So now the old man sees Heng Xiulin, it seems that he doesn't know him very well, which is naturally a little strange.

Hearing this, Heng Xiulin frowned immediately. Is this person Wang Zimin, the heir of the Wang family?It seems that the reason why the two old people were ruined was because of this guy!
When Heng Xiulin thought of this, there was a slight chill in his eyes. If such a guy who was not as good as a beast, if he didn't kill him, Heng Xiulin felt that his trip was in vain.

"Xiaosheng just came to Guidi, so I don't know this person."

Heng Xiulin had a lot of thoughts in his mind, but he still answered the old man's question with his hands folded. His appearance was extremely polite, and with Heng Xiulin's appearance, it was easy to attract others' favor.

So after the old man saw Heng Xiulin like this, his originally angry face softened a little at this time, and then he said to Heng Xiulin.

"This man is the legitimate son of the Wang family. You have to remember. When you see him in the future, just stay away from him and never provoke him. Otherwise, you will be killed."

This is the third sentence Heng Xiulin has heard. As long as the Wang family is involved, everyone's confessions will basically become the same. It is conceivable that what the Wang family did has already spread all over the world. The whole Musi City, otherwise, it wouldn't be like this.

"Young students, listen to my advice. If you are not from here, you should leave quickly. This is not a place for you to stay. In such a place, the Wang family will only cover the sky with one hand, and you may suffer disaster one day. Also, take care of your maid, and don't let that bastard see you."

Seeing Heng Xiulin's thoughtful expression, the old man turned his head and glanced at Heng Xiulin's maid, then sighed slightly, and then warned Heng Xiulin.

Naturally, it was reasonable for him to say such a thing. Thinking about how many girls that Prince Min had taken away?In the end, none of them survived, and Heng Xiulin's maid was so beautiful, if the beast saw it, he probably would have the idea of ​​forcibly taking her away.

He knew quite a lot about that beast, so he persuaded Heng Xiulin in this way, hoping that Heng Xiulin would keep it in his heart, lest another extremely tragic thing happen in time.

Hearing what the old man said, Heng Xiulin immediately nodded again and again, and then thanked the old man endlessly. The old man shook his head, as if he had thought of something, his eyes were full of that extremely sad look, and then he walked step by step. out of the crowd.

Heng Xiulin looked at the direction where the old man was leaving, and his heart was full of heavy feelings. Probably, the old man also experienced some things, so let him feel extremely painful for the Wang family.
