Crowned with Pearls

   Chapter 1026 Twenty-five grandparents

   Although Xiao Heng is kind, he always follows his words. People around him have long been used to it. When Xiao Heng said that he was going, he knew that he had to go, and he didn’t even open his mouth to persuade him.

  Liao Jing continued to persuade him for a long time. Seeing that it was useless, although he still disagreed in his heart, he knew that it was useless to talk too much, so he had to quit with everyone.

After these days of getting along with each other, Liao Jingxu and the people around Xiao Heng gradually became familiar with each other. At this time, he looked at Su Rong: "His Royal Highness's daughter, how precious is your identity? How can you go to such a dangerous place? Although His Royal Highness is also from the military, the situation here is different from that in Jizhou, why didn't Uncle persuade him?"

  I usually see that Su Rong and Xiao Heng have a very good relationship, but they had a night talk last night!

   Why didn't Su Rong persuade him for such a big thing? Really sad.

Knowing what Liao Jingxu was worried about, Su Rong smiled and persuaded him in turn: "I know that Your Excellency is worried about His Highness, but some things have to be done by someone, right? Knowing yourself and your enemy can help you survive a hundred battles. Besides, since coming to Yunnan, There are frequent waves, and in the final analysis, it is nothing more than the fact that officials from top and bottom in Yunnan cannot unite as one, and do not believe in His Highness’s ability. Then, His Highness can only do it himself.”

   Letting them all see their strength is the best way to unite people's hearts.

   The moment in front of you is the best moment.

   So Xiao Heng could never let go, how could Su Rong persuade him? At this time, he will only sacrifice his life to accompany the gentleman.

   Actually, Liao Jingxu himself understood these truths. He sighed and said no more. He went back to find a very ordinary cotton clothes and put them on, and went over to meet with Xiao Heng and the others.

  Xiao Heng and the others are also very plain and simple. If it weren't for Xiao Heng's whiteness, it would be too much, and there would be no flaws.

   However, Xiao Heng quickly had someone bring the ashes over, and wiped his face completely black, revealing only two bright eyes.

   Everyone couldn't help laughing when they saw it. Liao Jingxu also had to say: "Your Highness is dressed like this, but you can't see anything special."

   is taller, natives are generally shorter.

   Everyone was ready when they spoke, and Xiao Heng ordered to set off.

Liao Jingxu and his staff knew the situation here better than those from the capital, and they all took the time to tell Xiao Heng and the others about the villages of several military households carefully, and finally said: "Actually, it is There are more than 30,000 soldiers, but these natives are not doing well."

   The natives did get preferential treatment, but they had to be the natives of the upper class.

   Ordinary natives have a really bad life.

Xiao Heng quickly understood what Liao Jingxu said—because they walked two villages in the morning, and these two villages, without exception, had mud houses with thatched roofs, and everywhere were dilapidated. It rained only a few days ago. The yellow mud is muddy and difficult to walk. On this way, what they saw were mostly old and weak, women and children, cultivating in the fields, and they all looked like Liao Jingxu said that they were not doing well.

  Su Rong couldn't help frowning on the side, thinking that he said that Yungui is poor, he didn't have much experience in Fucheng, but when he came to these places, he really felt it.

Cui Daru is a person who has traveled all over the world. He has long been used to these situations, and he does not show any strangeness. However, after turning two villages, he exhaled heavily, and said with an unpleasant expression: "Sister Yang It **** blood!"

   He suddenly said that, and everyone looked at him.

  Liao Jingxu was the quickest to respond, and said with a wry smile: "The imperial court gives the natives extra silver every year, but these silvers cannot reach the hands of ordinary natives, let alone military households."

   was deducted by the upper class of the natives.

   This is the situation when encountering a vicious person like Senator Yang—the military households in the guardhouse lived so poor that they didn’t even have a place to stand.

   However, according to the military salaries and bounty money given by the imperial court, it would never have been like this.

   Therefore, Cui Daru said this.

Everyone's mood was a little down. Originally they thought the natives were stupid, especially when they besieged the Ji family before, and now they have arrested Tang's concubine. They really can't support the wall, but now that I think about it, they are just poor people, all for the sake of living. That's it.

  Everyone walked around the village one after another, and they had a good understanding of the local situation, so they were ready to leave the village.

   Finally going back, Liao Jingxu breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.

   Just went out of the village entrance. Under the old locust tree at the entrance of the village, they were stopped by a pair of grandparents.

  Because they came out under the banner of collecting leather, they were leading two horses. This is also the equipment often used by local merchants, and there was no suspicion along the way.

   At this time, the pair of grandparents suddenly rushed out, startling everyone.

  Liao Jingxu reacted greatly, and immediately scolded: "What are you doing!?"

   Xiao Heng's guards also secretly put their hands on their waists.

Xiao Heng made a gesture to instruct the guards not to act rashly. Seeing that the old man was so frightened that his hands and feet were trembling and unable to speak, he gently shouted, "Old man, what's the matter? Do you have skins to sell at home? ?"

The old man waved his hands anxiously, his gray hair trembled in the wind, and his face flushed stutteringly kowtowed to Xiao Heng: "My grandson is ill, please be kind, you have horses, take us to the city to find a doctor, please"

  Liao Jingxu was vigilant, but it wasn't that he didn't care for the people. In fact, it was not the first case that the natives set up a bureau to harm the merchants.

   He was afraid that this was the case, and when the guard was alerted, it would be bad.

   He anxiously gave Xiao Heng a wink.

   Xiao Heng noticed, however, that the child on the old man's back was flushed and his mouth was blue, obviously he was really sick.

   This child's illness cannot be delayed.

   Xiao Heng immediately made a decision and shouted: "Sir!"

   When he came out, he naturally brought Doctor Shen by his side.

  Doctor Shen had already passed by, reached out to untie the child on his back, looked at the child's eyes, checked his pulse, and then methodically took out his golden needle bag.

The old man was already stunned, staring blankly at Dr. Shen busy, wanting to speak out several times, but watching Xiao Heng and his party showing a look of fear, until the child over there cried, he couldn't restrain himself and ran away In the past, seeing that the child had woken up, he was so happy that he was about to kowtow to Doctor Shen.

  Doctor Shen hurriedly stretched out his hand to help him up: "Old man, don't be like this. We also collect medicinal materials when we travel south and north. We have some skills as a barefoot doctor. If we encounter it, we can't help but save it."
