General's Gown

Chapter 43 Long Kiss in the Desert 8

"Not dead." Helian Rongchuan said: "But only half breath left."

When the little girl heard it, she cried even more sadly.Almost at the same time, Helian Rongchuan and Yan Changqing stretched out their hands to the old woman, wanting to carry her on their backs.

Helian Rongchuan smiled lightly: "I'll do it." Before he finished speaking, he couldn't help saying that he picked up the old woman and carried it on his back.Yan Changqing stopped talking, took the little girl's hand, and walked out of the tent.

Not far from the porridge shed, it is a medicine shed for giving soup and medicine to the epidemic.However, it is far less lively than the porridge shed. A row of small medicine stoves are bubbling and steaming, but there is not a single victim who comes to get medicine.The little imperial physician Wei Jin wore a white handkerchief on the tip of his nose, nestled on a small wooden bench, the big cattail fan used to fan the fire slid by his feet, his head was bit by bit like a chicken pecking rice, he was about to fall asleep in boredom .

Helian Rongchuan didn't pay attention to his feet, and accidentally kicked an empty medicine can. With a "boom", Wei Jin trembled in his dream, and opened his eyes in a daze.

Helian Rongchuan: "Great opening, the children come out to welcome the guests!"

Wei Jin:? ? ?

Yan Changqing: ...

After half a column of incense.

Wei Jin frowned slightly, and carefully pulled out the silver needles stuck on the old woman's Renzhong and Baihui acupoints.The old woman gasped, and slowly opened her cloudy eyes.

"Grandma!" The little girl rushed forward, crying and laughing.

Wei Jin held a porridge bowl, as if wanting to feed the old woman.Seeing that the white handkerchief on the tip of his nose was loose, Yan Changqing quickly reminded him.Wei Jin smiled frankly: "General, don't worry. She doesn't have the epidemic. She is so hungry."

Yan Changqing frowned deeply.He obviously sent people to distribute relief food as soon as he entered the city, how could such a thing happen?

After hearing Wei Jin's words, the little girl lowered her head guiltily, and muttered, "It's my fault. I waited in line for almost a day before getting a bowl of porridge. When I go back, grandma will be like this...it's all my fault."

Helian Rongchuan knelt down, rubbed the little girl's head, and asked, "Didn't I hear that the relief food was distributed three days ago? Where's your food?"

The old lady was at the side, and after drinking Weijin's white rice soup, her spirits improved a little, and she said weakly: "They bullied my mother-in-law! The food was snatched away as soon as it was warmed up in her hands. I had to let Xiaoliu My son went to line up to get the porridge, but they cut in the line again, so he couldn't get a bowl of porridge a day, alas..."

As the old woman spoke, tears of helplessness flowed down her face full of vicissitudes and wrinkles.

"They? Who are they?" Yan Changqing asked.

Is it the brawny men who ate and drank that they met just now?

Yan Changqing's face was ashen, and he immediately sent someone to arrest a few strong men who jumped in line to eat, and escorted them to the county government office for questioning.

Fifty boards down, a few strong men trembling like a sieve, trembling all recruited.

It turned out that they were all helpers hired by a few wealthy businessmen in Qinchuan City, some of them were responsible for jumping in the relief team to eat, and more of them took advantage of the fire at night to rob, and they only picked out orphans, widows, mothers, old, weak, sick and disabled after the earthquake. All the grain that was looted was handed over to rich merchants and resold at a high price.

On the one hand, the opportunity for the victims to obtain food was cut off, and on the other hand, the looted food was sold back to the victims at a high price.What a good plan!

"These victims don't even have money to eat, so what can they exchange for food?" Helian Rongchuan asked suddenly.

Several strong men lowered their heads and looked at each other, but no one dared to speak first.

Yan Changqing looked at them coldly, and said slowly: "It seems that fifty boards is still a light hit."

"I say, I say!" Several strong men were scared to cry by Yan Changqing.The moment they first entered the yamen, they took several obscene glances at Yan Chang's clean eyes and his thin waist.But now, they just wish they could kneel down and hold Yan Changqing's leg and call, "Grandpa, have mercy."

"If you can't pay, you can sell yourself." A strong man lowered his head, fearing that he would be punished if he made a mistake, and said timidly, "As long as you pay the money, or sell your body, you can get the food."

The other strong man seemed a little aggrieved and muttered something in a low voice.

Helian Rongchuan stepped forward and kicked unceremoniously: "What are you mumbling about! Louder, or grandpa will hit you!"

"Grandpa, spare me!" The brawny man quickly knelt on the ground and kowtowed: "Actually, we were wronged too. Not only did we rob food, but the common people also robbed us. I...I don't accept..." The more he said, the more he said. No confidence.

It's strange, the food allocated to each household is enough, why do they want to grab other people's rations?

The strong man continued to explain with a guilty conscience: "Because if you pay enough food, you can receive the holy medicine to cure diseases and ward off evil spirits..."

"It's the holy medicine again?!" Wei Jin suddenly jumped down from the grand teacher's chair, and said, "No wonder so many victims of the disaster refused to take the medicine I worked so hard for. It turns out that it's your crooked way again?"

Yan Changqing turned his head in confusion: "Didn't it mean that your medicine, although it can't cure the disease, can also greatly alleviate the epidemic? Why is no one receiving it?"

Wei Jin wept bitterly: "They don't believe in my medicine!"

Standing aside, the head of the Qinchuan County Yamen, who had been too scared to make a sound, seemed to want to please, and couldn't help but said: "My lord... Have you ever heard this sentence, 'The earth is full of ghosts?' ?”

Yan Changqing nodded, and the resentful face of Marshal Abulie of Beirongdu before his death appeared in his eyes again.

Dutou appraised Yan Changqing's face, and boldly continued: "Your Excellency, there is something unknown. It is said that the earthquake and plague in Qinchuan City were all caused by the disaster of the White Wolf King. Only the holy medicine of the witch doctor can resolve it." Disaster. But this holy medicine is extremely rare, and it is often only those wealthy families who can get it from witch doctors, and then resell it to the common people. So..." They stopped talking.

Yan Changqing finally understood why they had been distributing food, but the people in Qinchuan still couldn't get enough to eat.It turns out that in the final analysis, it is this so-called holy medicine that is causing trouble!

The sick people, hungry for the holy medicine, robbed other people's food in exchange for medicine.The people who were not sick were forcibly deprived of food, and either starved to death or sold themselves for food!

Qinchuan City is located in a remote place, the folk customs are uncivilized, and they still worship witches and Gu. Yan Changqing had heard of it before, but he didn't expect it to be so serious.Unexpectedly, all the relief food that he and Helian Rongchuan had brought from thousands of miles ended up in the hands of speculative wealthy businessmen and so-called witch doctors!

Yan Changqing suddenly felt that he thought of the disaster in Qinchuan City too simply.There are not only natural disasters, but also man-made disasters.

To cure natural disasters, man-made disasters must be eliminated first!

night.

He Lian Rongchuan crossed his legs, lying on the couch in the tent with a smile on his face, looking at the figure behind the screen.

His looks are pure and simple, and he only thinks about changing clothes, so long as he hides behind the screen, he can't see him. He never thought that the silhouette of him changing clothes on the screen is equally seductive.

After cross-examination and discussion, several strong men found out the secret place where wealthy Qinchuan businessmen contacted witch doctors to buy holy medicine—the underground black market in Qinchuan City.In order to lure the snake out of the hole, Yan Changqing decided to go to the black market to find out.In order to avoid being interrogated by black market merchants, he and Helian Rongchuan deliberately dressed up as rich merchants from Beirong.There are also towns in Beirong infected with the epidemic, so it will not arouse suspicion.

At this time, Helian Rongchuan had already changed into a dark blue bat-pattern gown with a black rhinoceros horn belt around his waist and a circle of dandelion-like thin mink velvet on the hem. common attire.Although this outfit is quite exaggerated, it fits inexplicably with Helian Rongchuan's unruly temperament.

"Master Yan?" Helian Rongchuan tilted his head and shouted at the black silhouette on the screen: "Are you dressed, do you want me to go over—"

"Need not."

While tidying up the neckline, Yan Changqing came out from behind the screen.He also changed into the costume of a rich businessman from Beirong.A dark green gown with straight breasts and wide sleeves, and a belt of the same color with silver thread and vermilion patterns cinched his waist even thinner and straighter.Beirong is a nation that rides on horseback, but rich merchants value their long-sleeved, wide-sleeved, ornate and complicated long gowns. It seems that the less clothing they wear, the more they can highlight their dignity.Yan Changqing was used to wearing strong clothes with tight waist and narrow sleeves, but he was not used to this cumbersome attire.However, Helian felt a bright light in front of his eyes. He only felt that this gorgeous dress set off Yan Changqing's temperament completely different from before.

Yan Changqing was a little awkward. He Lian Rongchuan stared straight in the eyes, and said with a straight face: "What are you looking at, why don't you go quickly?"

Helian Rongchuan laughed softly: "You can't leave like this." He walked behind Yan Changqing and gently undid the jade buckle behind his belt.Yang Yang:

"The buckle is reversed. Be careful to reveal your secrets."

Yan Changqing was taken aback.He is not familiar with Bei Rong's clothing, and when he was wearing it just now, he was a little surprised by the complicated buckle method of the belt, but it was wrongly buckled.So he grabbed the belt and buckled it again himself.

However, for some reason, he buckled it several times in succession, but still couldn't get it right, it just wasn't a good buckle.

Under Helian Rongchuan's unblinking gaze, Yan Changqing couldn't help being a little irritable, and his ears were slightly red.

"You..." Helian Rongchuan smiled and shook his head.

He grabbed the belt from Yan Changqing's hand, facing Yan Changqing, wrapped his hands around Yan Changqing's waist, as if embracing him, and buckled the belt again.

The jade buckle of this belt is extremely gorgeous, there are a total of eight concealed buckles, for wishful and auspicious meaning, but it is very difficult to buckle.

He Lian Rongchuan was almost completely embracing Yan Changqing. He lowered his head, as if he was seriously thinking about how to make a concealed buckle, but his warm breath always brushed Yan Changqing's sensitive neck lightly.

Yan Changqing immediately tried to push him away vigilantly.Helian Rongchuan deliberately glanced at the hourglass timer on the case table.

Yes.The opening time of the black market is approaching, he must not delay, and must not make any mistakes.

So I had to compromise.

"one."

"two."

"three."

Every time a button is made, Helian Rongchuan will report the count in a low voice.It was obviously a very simple word, but for some reason, when Helian Rongchuan said it in a low and magnetic voice, it made people more and more confused.

"Seven." Helian Rongchuan suddenly turned his head, as if he was very puzzled: "Hey, why is Lord Yan's heart beating so fast?"

Yan Changqing was suddenly a little nervous: "I didn't—"

Before Yan Changqing finished speaking, Helian Rongchuan suddenly tightened his arms, and the two chests were pressed tightly together. He lowered his head and quickly kissed the corner of Yan Changqing's mouth.

"Sophistry." Helian Rongchuan smiled deeper, gently stroking Yan Changqing's chest: "Look, now you dance faster."
