"No, miss, do you really want to go out like this..."

Ling'er's shocked voice sounded in the room, and her mouth opened slightly in surprise.

She watched as her young lady tied up her long hair and tied it into a man's bun, with two moustache attached to her middle part, and she was dressed like a man.

Seeing Ling'er's surprised expression, Yun Qian frivolously picked up Ling'er's chin with her folding fan.

"Yeah, how are you? Are you fascinated by your young lady?"

Ling'er: "......"

Ling'er's expression was very vivid and difficult to evaluate, so Yun Qian snorted softly.

"I... I think this outfit is very good," Yun Qian looked at herself in the bronze mirror and smiled with satisfaction.

"By the way, when you go out later, you can't call me miss anymore. You want to call me master, do you understand?"

Linger nodded obediently.

Yun Qian touched Ling'er's little face again itchingly, "The little girl is so pretty, why don't you just follow me."

"........."

"Sir, let's leave quickly."

---

The streets are very lively, and people coming and going will stop in front of the stalls because of the gadgets they like, and the voices of bargaining with the bosses one after another.

Yun Qian and Ling'er walked struttingly on the street, touching his mustache with his hand from time to time, looking so cool.

The purpose of Yun Qian's dressing up as a man was to make it easier to learn some news about the famine. It was inconvenient to enter and leave some places as a woman. In order to save unnecessary trouble, it would be much faster to dress up as a man.

In the previous life, this disaster relief strategy was a system between the emperor and the regent. The decision was discussed, but some people secretly interfered during the implementation process, which caused the emperor to have a dislike for the regent in his heart.

Thinking of the powerful regent, Yun Qian turned to Ling'er and asked, "Ling'er, have you seen the regent?"

Ling'er shook her head honestly, "I haven't seen her before. Ling'er is just a maid, and there is no place to see the regent."

Yun Qian turned back regretfully.

The two of them arrived at the largest teahouse, casually found a window seat upstairs and sat down, ordering two pots of tea and several plates of melon seeds.

Yun Qian sat casually, holding her chin up and looking at the street downstairs through the window.

Ling'er looked left and right, and asked doubtfully: "Young Master, what are we doing here?"

"Shh..." Yun Qian winked at Ling'er playfully, "This is the most well-informed place. You'll know it soon."

Ling'er was so confused that Yun Qian stuffed a handful of melon seeds into her hand. The melon seeds were fried and exuded a strong fragrance. She couldn't help but start eating them together.

There are a lot of guests in the teahouse every day, both local and foreign, and the things they discuss are often more real.

Sure enough, not long after Yun Qian and the others sat down, someone came to the table behind Yun Qian. Judging from the appearance, they must be from outside the city.

They were all men. Their voices were slightly louder, and Yun Qian could hear them at least seven or eight times.

"I don't know when this drought will end. Fortunately, we have been in the city these days, not at home."

"The weather is dry and the land is dry. There is no way to grow food. Now that we cannot have a good harvest, we can only wait for food to be sent from above."

"Who knows how long it will take? Don't wait until I starve to death before you deliver it."

"It's not like they'll starve to death. It's just that the disaster relief measures were put out a long time ago, but the food has disappeared. Isn't the efficiency of the court too low?"

"In my opinion, the 80% success rate is due to some corrupt officials, which is why we are so slow."

"Shh, keep your voice down. There are many people here, so don't let anyone take advantage of you."

Yun Qian lowered his head thoughtfully, stroking the smooth rim of the cup with his fingertips.

Yes, the disaster relief policy has been released a long time ago. In theory, funds and supplies should have reached the towns persecuted by the disaster long ago.

Why did it take so long? Yun Qian thought, somewhat agreeing with what the man just said.

Most likely someone is getting in the way and is greedy.

The reason why Yun Qian is so concerned about this disaster relief is that he doesn't want his father, who is mainly responsible for appropriation and supplies, to be implicated by some people's secret methods. The prerequisite for saving Yun Mansion is to stabilize some situations.

"I heard that the regent was involved in the decision-making this time. It shouldn't be so inefficient."

"Who knows, so many people have starved to death in this famine. Anyway, we can live one day at a time."

The men stopped talking about the famine and turned to other topics.

The customers around him changed one after another, and Yun Qian understood all the important things that happened during this period. At least now, he was not in a state of being blind and unable to find his direction.

When I came out of the teahouse, the sun was already setting in the west. There was a brothel not far from the teahouse. There were several graceful women standing at the door of the brothel, and Lao Jiu was taking them to attract customers.

Yun Qian shook her folding fan and stood in front of the brothel with great interest. Ling'er suddenly felt an ominous premonition in her heart.

"Sir, we should..." Before he could say three words after going back, he was interrupted by Yun Qian.

"Come on, let's go in and take a look."

Yun Qian walked inside happily, and the beautiful women came over to hold Yun Qian's hand, saying in a soft voice: "Sir, please come inside."

Ling'er covered her face and took a deep breath, then followed her son in as if resigned to her fate.

Yun Qian spent a lot of money to book a private room. The private room blocked out the slightly noisy movement outside. Several girls came in, pinched Yun Qian's legs and fed fruits to others, which made him feel very comfortable.

Yun Qian felt that she was in heaven, while Ling'er sat aside and felt heartbroken.

Young Master, why have you become like this...

Before enjoying this kind of happiness for too long, there was a huge commotion outside. Yun Qian raised his hand to ask the girls to move away first.

"What happened outside?"

No one could answer her, and Ling'er shook her head.

Yun Qian stood up, opened the door of the private room and walked out, looking down at the wooden handrail.

At first glance, his eyes were attracted by the slender figure in the center of the hall.

The man was tall and tall, wearing a black robe, with dark lines outlined with silver thread on the hem. It was the pattern of a python, low-key and dangerous.

Half of his long hair hangs down behind his back, his skin is extremely white, his facial features are deep and beautiful, his thin lips are slightly pursed, his face has no expression, and his eyes have no emotion, but his aura is so powerful that people around him cannot ignore it.

"Strategy character, Yanxu."

No, wait, who? ?

Yun Qian opened his mouth slightly in surprise, but the people downstairs seemed to sense that someone was looking at him. They raised their eyes slightly, and Yun Qian met those inky eyes.

In this situation, Yun Qian had the urge to whistle at the beauty.

This was originally just an idea, but Yun Qian was still in shock, so she subconsciously made actions corresponding to her idea.

Not very skillfully, he blew a rogue whistle at the regent downstairs.
