Abandoned Prince Survival Guide

Xiao Yu woke up suddenly, and quickly sat up: "Where is it?"

Pei Linzhi said: "Your Majesty, put on your clothes and don't come out. I'll ask Ji Hai and Yu'er to come and accompany you. The dagger is under the pillow, so take it. If I don't come back, don't open the door."

Xiao Yu touched the dagger and held it in his hand. His palms were sweating. These days are so peaceful that he almost forgot his other identity. Is it an ordinary thief, or did he come after himself?

Pei Linzhi grabbed the sword beside the bed, took off the bow and quiver on the wall and put it on his back, went to another room to wake up Ji Hai, and told him: "Come and close the door for me. After closing the door, take the fish to go Guard your lord, and you are not allowed to go anywhere. Only open the door when I come back."

Ji Hai nodded: "OK."

Pei Linzhi's hearing was excellent, so he picked an empty door, gently opened it and stepped out, Ji Hai quickly closed the door, and found a big wooden stick to block the door.After checking all the doors, he carried his sleeping sister to Xiao Yu's room.

Xiao Yu asked Ji Hai to put the fish on the bed, got out of bed by himself, and looked out of the window uneasily, it was pitch black outside, he couldn't see anything or hear anything strange.

Ji Hai took a pole in his hand, gave Xiao Yu a hand, and said in a low voice, "Mr., stay away from the windows."

Xiao Yu found that Ji Hai was very calm about this matter, and he was not panicked. It was obviously not the first time he met him: "Have people come to the village to rob before?"

"Have."

"Who are they?"

"Sometimes it's bandits from Longhu Mountain, sometimes it's pirates." When talking about pirates, Ji Hai's tone paused.

"What are they robbing?"

"Food. Bandits and pirates don't grow food, they live by robbing food."

"Does it hurt anyone?"

"Sometimes it kills."

Xiao Yu felt chilly in his heart. He thought that the house was built, and he finally had a place to live and live. It's not a bad thing to be a farmer. Who knows that the world is so uneven.It is also because the imperial court is weak and extortionate excessively, so it is strange that there is peace.

At this moment, a loud cry came from the silent night: "It's gone!"

Immediately afterwards, the sound became noisy, footsteps, calls for help, faintly accompanied by cries and screams.Xiao Yu switched to the rear window, and could vaguely see the red flames.The thief didn't seem to be aiming at him, but the houses in the village are all thatched roofs, and they burn at one o'clock. If they burn, can there be any?

I don't know what happened to Rinzhi, he should be able to protect himself.

Xiao Yu fidgeted and walked back and forth in the room: "We are so close to the state city, they dare to come and rob, and they don't pay attention to the government at all."

"It's useless. The government never cares about our life or death. They only come to ask for grain and pearls. Sir, why do you want to hand over the grain we grow ourselves to them? What's the difference between them and robbers?" Ji Hai wondered. understand this.

Xiao Yu was at a loss for words for a moment, yes, the people worked hard to plow the land and cultivate the fields, and the harvested crops had to be handed over to a government that did not provide any guarantees, just because the emperor was the biggest landlord in this land?No wonder the people complain.

Xiao Yu said: "Not all governments are like this. A good court should protect its people from being bullied and enslaved by foreigners, from being harassed by robbers and bandits, eliminating violence and peace, maintaining order, so that the old and the young can rely on themselves. And his people are willing to support such a government willingly, giving part of their income to the government, so that the government can support the officials and the army, and the elderly, orphans, sick, handicapped."

Ji Hai had a half-knowledge: "Is there such a government?"

"Yes. It has happened before, and it will happen in the future." Xiao Yu comforted Ji Hai.

Ji Hai said, "I hope that such a government will come soon."

Xiao Yu thought bitterly, wondering when such a government would come.

After an unknown amount of time, Ji Hai persuaded him: "Mr. Lang, Mr. Pei Lang should have driven the thieves away. Go to bed and sleep. It's cold at night."

A gust of cold wind came in from the window, Xiao Yu just sneezed, he didn't hear anything nearby, presumably Pei Linzhi had dealt with the gangsters, so he went back to bed, covered his legs with the quilt, and waited for Pei Linzhi to come back.

The rooster crowed three times, and Pei Linzhi finally returned. He knocked on the door outside: "Mr., it's me. Open the door."

Ji Hai had already opened the door before Xiao Yu. Xiao Yu's eyes had already adapted to the darkness, he could see Pei Linzhi's figure clearly, and he could smell a faint smell of fireworks. He stepped forward and grabbed Pei Linzhi's arm: "Rinzhi, you are not hurt. Bar?"

Pei Linzhi put his hand on the back of his hand: "I'm fine, sir, don't worry."

"Where are the robbers?"

"Two died, one was captured, and the rest ran away."

Xiao Yu guessed that the two who died should be killed by him: "Where are the arrested people?"

"At Lizheng's house, I will send it to the government after dawn."

"Where did it come from? A pirate or a bandit?"

"The Bandits of Longhu Mountain."

Xiao Yu sighed heavily. He became a bandit and pirate because he couldn't get along. As a result, the evil of human nature was infinitely magnified without the restraint of laws and morals, and he turned around and bullied poor people like them: "Who's family?" His house burned down? Are there casualties in the village?"

"Some people were injured, but no one was killed. Wu Xingyi's house was burned down, and his family's Dalang had his leg broken."

Wu Xingyi and Xiao Yu knew that he was a taciturn person who helped out by burning a lime kiln.

"What about Wu Xingyi's family?"

"They're all at Lizheng's house."

"Have you seen the doctor?"

"Where is the doctor? You have to go to Zhoucheng."

"Then send him to Zhoucheng to see a doctor tomorrow. If you don't treat your broken leg, it will be a lifetime thing."

Pei Linzhi thought, His Highness still cares about whether his legs will not break, and the Wu family may not even be able to eat: "Let's talk about it tomorrow, it's still early, sir, go back to sleep."

Xiao Yu said, "Why don't I go to Lizheng's house to have a look?"

"Don't go, it's dark, there may be thieves hiding, it's not safe. Go to sleep, we'll talk about it at dawn." Pei Linzhi put his arms around Xiao Yu's shoulders, and pushed him onto the bed to sleep.

After confirming that it was safe, Ji Hai picked up his sister and went back to his room.

After tossing and tossing for half a night, it was finally easy to fall asleep again. Xiao Yu slept until dawn when he returned to the cage, but he was still woken up. Meng Hong's voice came from outside: "Lizheng asked each of our patriarchs to go to his house. Discuss about Wu Xingyi. Are you going to Pei Langjun or Xiao Langjun?"

Pei Linzhi said: "The head of my family is Mr. Lang, but he is still awake, so I will go for him."

Xiao Yu hurriedly said: "I'm up, Rinzhi, I'll go take a look too."

When Pei Linzhi entered the room, Xiao Yu was tying up his clothes in a hurry, looking at the sunlight outside the window: "It's already this hour, why didn't you wake me up."

Pei Linzhi didn't reply to him, but said: "The food in Wu's house is all burnt out, I guess everyone should collect some food to spend the winter with them."

Xiao Yu stretched out his hand to grab his long hair, and was about to tie it casually, but Pei Linzhi snatched the hair tie: "I'll do it." He took the comb, combed Xiao Yu's hair neatly, and then tied his hair into a bun.

Xiao Yu made a grimace at him: "Thank you!" Even though it had been a few months, he still didn't know how to tie his hair well, and short hair was more convenient, cool and easy to manage.

Pei Linzhi said: "Your Majesty, go wash up and eat some food first. Let's go together later."

It was during the meal that Xiao Yu realized that Pei Linzhi had sent the captured bandit back to the government, and the speed was really fast enough.

There are people inside and outside the house in Lizheng's house. Those sitting on the mat and squatting on the steps are all the male masters of each family, and they all have sad faces.The life of each family is difficult. The villagers make a living by fishing and picking pearls, and each family does not have much food. Some were robbed last night. Now it is difficult to allocate some to the Wu family.

As soon as Xiao Yu arrived, Li Zheng hurriedly invited the two of them into the hall. Although they had only been here for less than half a year, they had already shown their financial strength. When the Wu family was in trouble, Li Zheng naturally hoped that Xiao Yu would do more.

Wu Xingyi and his family are all in the hall.Wu Xingyi was in his thirties, and his eldest son, who was about the same age as Pei Linzhi, was lying on the ground moaning in pain. His mother, younger siblings were guarding him, and the whole family wiped away their tears.

Xiao Yu asked, "Have you seen the doctor?"

Wu Xingyi glanced at Xiao Yu timidly, then shook his head: "No."

Xiao Yu turned his head and asked Pei Rinzhi, "Does Rinzhi know how to heal bones?"

Pei Linzhi said: "I can heal a dislocation, but I can't treat a broken bone."

Xiao Yu then said: "Then send Zhoucheng to see a doctor, so as not to delay the illness."

The wife of the Wu family, who was only weeping silently, cried aloud when she heard this. Now that there are only a few burnt walls left in her house, how can she afford to see a doctor for her son.

Xiao Yu said: "Rinzhi, how many people can you find and carry Dalang to the clinic for treatment on wooden boards? I will pay for the consultation fee. The house of Wu Xingyi's family was burned down. If there is nowhere to go, I can vacate a room first." Let's tide over the difficulties with them temporarily. As for the assistance of the neighbors, everyone should do what they can, and I will subsidize what is insufficient."

As soon as he said this, the house was quiet, and after a while, Wu Xingyi and his wife all turned to Xiao Yu, knelt down and worshiped: "Thank you Mr. Xiao, Mr. Xiao is so merciful and merciful, he is really the reincarnation of a living Bodhisattva."

Da Lang lying on the ground choked with sobs and said: "Da Lang thanked Mr. Xiao Lang, and when I recover from my wounds, I will be a horse for Mr. Xiao Lang."

Pei Linzhi turned his head to look at Xiao Yu, his husband is a bodhisattva.

Xiao Yu waved his hand: "You don't have to thank me so much. No one has any difficulties, so don't panic. After a while, it will be over. When the spring begins, the rice will be ripe, and it will gradually get better. Li Zheng, you see that this arrangement is not bad. good?"

The result was completely unexpected, and Li Zheng nodded repeatedly: "Mr. Xiao Lang is willing to help. That's very good. This matter is settled like this. Those who have help from each family will be sent to Mr. Xiao's house. It's all right. Let's go away."

Pei Linzhi called several young and strong villagers, tore down a door panel, and carried him to the Wu family to see a doctor in Zhoucheng, and Wu Xingyi himself followed.Xiao Yu led the Wu family's mother and son back to his home.

Wu Xingyi's home was at the entrance of the village, and when the bandits came, they were the first to rob them.The bandits robbed the food and also the younger sister of the Wu family. In order to protect his sister, Da Lang fought desperately with the bandits, and his leg bones were broken.

If Pei Rinzhi hadn't arrived in time, the whole Wu family might have been murdered.But when the thief fled, he still set a fire. In the dry winter, the hut would be destroyed as soon as it caught fire, and there was no time for people to snatch more things out.

Xiao Yu took him in not only out of sympathy, but because he liked the labor of the Wu family. He planned to make paper, but couldn't find suitable labor.The father and son of the Wu family are all working hard. If they know how to be grateful, they can make paper for themselves.

Ji Hai and Yu'er saw that Lang Jun led the people back and asked them to clean up the side house, so they knew that the Wu family was also taken in by Lang Jun just like them.Both Ji Hai and Yu'er were a little disappointed. It turns out that Lang Jun is not only kind to them, but also to others.

Xiao Yu arranged: "Jihai, you will sleep in the same room with Dalang Erlang from now on, and Yu'er will sleep in the same room with Wu Xiaomei. Before the new bed is ready, let's build a simple one with earth bricks and planks, and wait for the carpenter to come and make a new one." bed."

This side is cleaning up, and there have been villagers sending food over there one after another. Some send rice, and some send grain. Although they are all in the amount of one or two buckets, they can also relieve urgent needs.

While collecting the grain, the wife of the Wu family told her daughter to write down who sent what, so that she could buy the grain in the future to pay off the debt.

Xiao Yu said to Mrs. Wu's family: "Please report your name and number, and I will write it down for you, okay?"

"Okay, thank you for your kindness and virtue, Mr. Wu." With tears in her eyes, the wife of the Wu family bowed her head while nodding.

Xiao Yu hurriedly stopped: "Miss Wu, don't do this, I'm just doing it casually."

Xiao Yu used charcoal sticks to keep accounts one by one on the plastered wall, and said to Ji Hai, "This is the benefit of reading, do you understand?"

There was a look of admiration in Ji Hai's eyes: "Understood. Please teach me, sir."
