I'm the villain

Chapter 314

"I don't want to live in a temple, and I don't want to live a long life. Don't kneel down to me. Is there anyone else in the village?"

"Eunong doesn't agree, Xiaolian won't get up."

"The host is a moral kidnapping!" The focus of the villain's system is always different from others.

"Let me ask you, within a mile radius, are there any living people?"

Bai Qing always lacked emotion when speaking, Zhou Xiaolian was taken aback, and hurriedly said tremblingly: "They are all gone, fleeing famine. My mother said to wait for father, so we won't go."

"Where's your father?"

"I was drafted into the army the year before last, and my father was arrested."

Bai Qing grabbed Zhou Xiaolian by the back of the neck and pulled her up, pointing to the donkey not far away, "Go and pack your things, wait for me somewhere."

Zhou Xiaolian looked at her blankly, and when she saw Bai Qing rummaging through the courtyard to find the shovel, she instantly regained her spirits.

She went into the house, rummaged through to find out a suit of clothes that were not old, and boldly changed them for the woman.Now that the weather is hot and the body is not cold, it is not difficult.

When Bai Qing came back, the woman had already been dressed up, and Zhou Xiaolian was kneeling beside the bed, studying the woman's bent legs, trying to make her face look better.

Seeing her come back, Zhou Xiaolian quickly got up, "Grandfather."

Bai Qing picked up the woman and walked out of the gate, Zhou Xiaolian hurriedly followed.

When she saw what Bai Qing had prepared, she couldn't help being shocked.

Bai Qing dismantled the tables, chairs, benches, doors and windows of the houses in the village and piled them together. Now all he had to do was put people on them and light the fire bed.

"It's not windy today. After burning and collecting the bones, I'll put them together for you."

Zhou Xiaolian trembled, and wanted to say that she would be safe in the ground, but she dared not.

During the cremation, Bai Qing found a hammer and a door panel, clanged together to form a coffin, and after thinking about it, he wrote the word "sacrifice" with charcoal.

Zhou Xiaolian didn't dare to speak, and sat on the ground with her legs crossed, staring at the flames.

The fire didn't go out until midnight, the pile of wood wasn't too much, and the bones were barely intact. Bai Qing picked out the bones and put them together in the coffin. She shook Zhou Xiaolian who had fallen asleep, let her take a look, and sealed the coffin directly.

After the small mound was piled up, the villain system trembled and opened its mouth.

"Host, why are you so proficient?"

"Deep cremation to prevent disease." Bai Qing lit another fire, threw his coat into it and burned it.Zhou Xiaolian couldn't bear to faint again, so Bai Qing simply put her on the donkey's back and led the little donkey away.

·
Three days later, Bai Qing stood outside the yamen, pointing at the door with his chin.

"Here?"

Zhou Xiaolian stirred the hem of her clothes, and said timidly: "Benefactor, let's go, my mother said that the officials can't be provoked."

"I didn't say no, that's what it is." Bai Qing led Zhou Xiaolian directly into it.

She doesn't want to bring a child with her all the time. A child at this age is the easiest to raise to death. Zhou Xiaolian has a high fever and nightmares these days, and she is almost bored to death.

"I don't want to decoct medicine for you every day, find your father and let him raise you."

Zhou Xiaolian looked up at her, and managed to force a smile out of nowhere.

"Engong, maybe my father is dead, and he hasn't sent a single letter."

Bai Qing's face suddenly darkened, wouldn't she be entangled by this little thing after she died?
"To shut up."

Zhou Xiaolian quickly covered her mouth and looked around with her big eyes. Seeing the yamen servant approaching, her heart was pounding, for fear that she and her benefactor would be thrown out.

In the end, I don't know what kind of thing Engong took out, the yamen servant went in holding the thing, and soon another man with a long beard came out.

"This is the county magistrate here..." The county magistrate saw that Bai Qing was young and didn't know how to address him for a while, "Why did you come here?"

"Ben Shanggong was ordered by the prince to search for some things outside. When I met this little thing, her father was lost. Help her find her father."

The county magistrate: "This... Su Shanggong is here to report the case?"

After being an official for so many years, it was the first time that someone from the palace took care of these trivial matters.

"Shang Gong invites you to rest in the inner office." This Shang Gong is holding the badge from the palace and His Majesty's private seal, no matter what it is, he dare not offend.

Zhou Xiaolian opened her mouth wide. She had only heard of an official named Shangshu from storytellers in the market, and it sounded very powerful.Isn't the prince the emperor's son?Is Engong an official like Shangshu?

An hour later, the county magistrate finally figured out the matter anxiously, and asked someone to invite the county magistrate to come over, check and check the list over the years,

When they came over with the dossier in their arms, they saw the child named Xiao Lian sitting in danger, waiting for the Shang Palace to bring her the peaches on the table, and the county magistrate and county magistrate felt their scalps go numb instantly.

Except for a few people in the palace, who would dare to disturb these Shanggongs.They had long heard that there was a young Shang Gong in the Eastern Palace, who was selected by His Majesty shortly after entering the palace.

What an honor this is.

"Shang Gong, may I ask what is your relationship with this child?" The county captain spoke first.

He was once dispatched from the capital, and his relationship with Beijing is much deeper than that of the county magistrate, and he has more confidence.

"Cousin from far away. I happened to pass by a few days ago, so I went to have a look, but the child was crying to find his father, so I brought him out."

Isn't this talking nonsense?Zhou Xiaolian was holding a bright red peach and forgot to eat it, her big eyes were full of puzzlement.

"Shanggong, please move." The county lieutenant was in a state of confusion. Reasonably, Shanggong was just a member of the harem, and they didn't need to pay too much attention to it.But the bad thing is that this is not one of those palace ladies who can't get out of the deep palace.

His Majesty promoted himself, and the crown prince sent someone, even the Beijing officials, to give him a little favor.

When they arrived at the corridor, the county captain calmed down and said: "Shang Gong didn't know something. The group of people who went to the north the year before last were supposed to go to the north, but the superiors temporarily arranged them to go to the south. Things were not ready, and even the few people who went with them All the soldiers in the village are dissatisfied. The superiors are suppressing this matter, so we can't report it, and we dare not tell the subordinates."

"Unsatisfactory?"

"It's the miasma in the south. We have no experience in the countryside, and we have been dispatched temporarily and have not kept up with anything..."

Bai Qing understood, whether the climate was unacceptable or the logistics didn't keep up, Zhou Xiaolian's father died, he didn't die on the battlefield, he died on the road.

"Our small place doesn't dare to report to the higher level, Shang Gong, you can check it out."

"Farewell."

Bai Qing went back, grabbed the peach that Zhou Xiaolian was holding, put it on the table, and dragged her out.

"Grandpa, where is my father?"

"You guessed right, dead."

Zhou Xiaolian walked quickly with her short legs, trying to keep up with Bai Qing's footsteps.

"How did my father die?"

Bai Qing's voice was light: "Same as your mother."

"Why, benefactor?"

The county magistrate and county lieutenant followed a few steps, and when the child asked why, they couldn't help pricking up their ears.

"Because..." Bai Qing tightened the hairband that was about to fall off the child's head, and yawned, "They are out of luck."

"Then where are we going?" Zhou Xiaolian decided to hug her thighs tightly, "Benefactor, I want to be your cow and horse."

"Enter the palace."

"Ah, do I want to go too? Can I go? That's where the emperor lives?"

"The prince is looking for a teacher and a companion. I think you can be a teacher."

"what?"

Zhou Xiaolian opened her mouth wide. She will be the prince's teacher?

"Grandpa, I don't know anything."

"It's simple, just teach him what it's like to be hungry."

Zhou Xiaolian patted the bag in her waist, ate bulgingly, and grinned.

"I'm familiar with this. Anyone can go hungry. Why can't the prince?"

"This thing depends on talent. For people without talent, it is too difficult, even harder than reaching the sky."

"Engong Engong, my mother said that some people are born to live in the sky, is that what the prince is like?"
