The Landlord's Silly Husband gl

The loud cries were disturbing, but also pitiful, for the voices were mostly children and women.

Except for Lin Kong, the people in the carriage basically knew what happened outside.

Abu lifted the curtain and said respectfully to Song Keyan, "Miss, it's refugees blocking the way."

Jiang Yuan looked along the opened curtain of the car, and saw about a hundred people at the intersection ahead, they were blocking the road ahead, all of them were in ragged clothes, most of them only wore some old linen clothes.

Some were huddling together to keep warm, while others wanted to come forward, but they were quite afraid of Song Keyan's guards, so they could only timidly block them at the intersection.

Lin Kong asked curiously, "My lady, what is a refugee?"

Jiang Yuan said succinctly: "It's the people who are fleeing."

Lin Kong nodded with a vague understanding.

Song Keyan's face was extremely ugly, Shen Sheng asked Abu to find out where the refugees came from, they couldn't let them keep blocking the way like this.

Abu followed the sound and left, and the voices outside became louder, most of them begging for food and quilts.

Although Jiang Yuan and his team only had two carriages, there were not many escorts on horseback.

Although those refugees kept clamoring for things, they only dared to take advantage of their large numbers to temporarily gather together and block the road.

In fact, they were still afraid that these guards would be like soldiers in the city, and they would treat them as human beings, and all of them looked nervous.

After quickly understanding the situation, Abu came to the car and told Song Keyan.

"Miss, I have inquired about everything. They came from Jiaozhou in the north. Half a month ago, Jiaozhou was invaded by Turks, and it happened to be hit by a rare snow disaster. The refugees had to flock south..."

Jiang Yuan frowned and thought for a while, then said: "Then have they entered the city?"

Of course, the city here only refers to Yuanzhou City.

Abu explained: "I heard that too many refugees have flooded into the city..."

Jiang Yuan frowned, turned to ask Shiqi, and said, "Miss Shiqi, did you find anything unusual the day you came to Yuanzhou City?"

"It was urgent at the time, so I didn't pay attention to these things, but there shouldn't be so many refugees at that time." Shiqi recalled.

It was only five days since she went to Yuanzhou City last time, and I don't know how so many refugees flooded in during this period.

Lin Kong heard them say something he didn't understand, so he lay on the side and looked at the situation outside curiously. There were adults and children blocking the road, and some of them had even been frozen to death on the side of the road. Nobody bothered.

Those refugees have become so numb that they are used to all this, and only one or two relatives are crying there.

Lin Kong thought of the death of Lin's father and Lin's mother before, and couldn't bear to say: "Lady, another person died there. They are so pitiful. Shall we go down and distribute the dry food to them?"

Jiang Yuan glanced at the situation there, and said bluntly: "No."

Lin Kong looked at Jiang Yuan incredulously, and was very puzzled by the direct denial of his proposal, and said slowly, "Why...why?"

"The little food in our car is just a drop in the bucket for them, and after seeing the food, they may not only kill each other, but may even pester us all the time." Jiang Yuan rationally analyzed the consequences, "At that time, we still have to deal with them. Instead of helping them impulsively now, it is better to save them again later."

"Yes, raising rice to nourish kindness, and carrying rice to nourish hatred, they are all hungry beasts now, they will not remember our favor, but will take it for granted that we are a granary that can be endlessly demanded." Shi Qi also echoed.

"Then...then what should we do?" Lin Kong looked at the refugees who had no food and cotton clothes, confused.

"The best way now is for you to rush to the city first, find Prince Jing, and then ask the rich people in the city to help." Song Keyan naturally understood this truth.

Now if this continues, more refugees will only entangle them, and more people will die on this road.

Now it is almost a day away from Yuanzhou City, but they can't delay now.

Song Keyan asked Abu to lead the people to open the way, scaring the refugees away, and then drove the carriage quickly, with the sound of horseshoes along the way, it only took them half a day to reach Yuanzhou City.

There are also a large number of refugees outside Yuanzhou City, but fortunately there are officials to watch over them.

Because of the higher terrain, the scene in the city is quite different from that in Xuzhou City. Not only has the snow not melted here, but it is still snowing heavily.

Originally, Yuanzhou City was richer than Xuzhou City, but the streets were full of refugees shivering from the cold. The high-ranking officials and dignitaries passing by were all colorful, but no one was willing to stop to help the poor refugees.

Lin Kong saw an old man whose face was livid with cold on the side of the road not far away. She reached out to touch the broken silver in her pocket and put it in the old man's bowl.

The old man looked up at Lin Kong, kowtowed thankfully, and when he was about to reach out to get the silver, the beggars around rushed up, snatched the silver, and kicked him by the way.

The group of beggars looked at the broken silver and threw it far away with their backhands.

Lin Kong stared dumbfounded at the silver that was thrown far away. It was her only pocket money, and it could buy a lot of sweets. She was puzzled and said, "My lady, this..."

Jiang Yuan silently picked up the silver and stuffed it into Lin Kong's hands, already unable to feel any sympathy for this group of people.

"It's just human nature." Shi Qi saw this kind of situation a lot in Jianghu, and comforted him, "They think you don't give much, so don't pay attention to them."

Lin Kong stuffed the broken silver back into his pocket, and together with Jiang Yuan helped the old man up.

The old man seemed to be used to being weak, so he didn't care much, he just thanked him tremblingly: "Young master, don't be sad, now you can't buy food except for silver ingots."

"Old man, drink some water first." Jiang Yuan gave him some dry food again, and only after careful questioning did he know the reason of the matter.

It turned out that none of them were natives of Yuanzhou City. Like those people outside the city, they also fled from the north.

It’s just that they were lucky to be able to enter the city. After the war, the officers and soldiers guarding the city allowed the first wave of refugees to enter the city. Can only fend for itself outside.

Jiang Yuan frowned and said, "Before I came, I heard that Prince Jing is in charge of the city, how could it be so?"

According to the news she had inquired from the storyteller and shopkeeper Bai, it was everywhere that Prince Jing loved the people like a son, and was deeply loved by the people of the Dajing Dynasty, so he shouldn't have acted like this.

Moreover, Prince Jing is a person who is going to do great things, and now is a good opportunity to win the hearts of the people.

The old man nodded and said: "Prince Jing is indeed in the city, but there are too many refugees coming here this time, and the enemy spies were caught before, so there is no place to settle in the city."

"Besides, there is no general in Beijing who knows how to use troops. Sooner or later, Prince Jing will return to Beijing to deploy, or go directly to the front line. Therefore, it's not that he doesn't want to take care of the affairs of the city, but he has no time to take care of them."

Jiang Yuan now understood why shopkeeper Bai was so eager to let her come over when he was discussing with shopkeeper Bai.

Song Keyan looked at all this impatiently, and didn't know what to do, but for the time being, Prince Jing was in charge here, and it was inevitable for her to return to Beijing.

She explained to Abu, and ignored the current refugee issue, she discussed with Jiang Yuan: "I have to rush back to Beijing first. Now that there is a natural disaster, my father will definitely send someone to distribute the relief food. Then I can come and meet you again.”

Jiang Yuan understands Song Keyan's current situation, this place is under the jurisdiction of Prince Jing, she will only be a stranger here, and besides, she is passing by on the way, so there is no need to get involved in the muddy water.

"Be careful on your way."

Song Keyan and the others left first, and Shi Qi naturally used the excuse of continuing to teach Lin Kong to stay with Lin Kong and Jiang Yuan.

Some things just haven't been cracked yet.

Jiang Yuan planned to settle Lin An and Lin Wan in the inn first, and then go to meet Prince Jing. When they found the first inn, it was already dark.

After Lin An and Lin Wan settled down, Jiang Yuan and Lin Kong were about to go out when they saw a black shadow flash past outside the door.

"Who?" Lin Kong wanted to chase out subconsciously, but was grabbed by Jiang Yuan, because Shi Qi, who was waiting outside the door, had already practiced lightness kung fu and chased after the man in black.

"Kong'er, don't act so impulsively in the future." Jiang Yuan reminded.

Although Lin Kong has kung fu at the moment, she will vomit blood and even faint when she uses her internal energy, so when encountering a master, it is best not to make a move as much as possible.

Lin Kong nodded and said, "Oh."

Shiqi just chased after it for a while and then fell back, with a hurried look on his face.

Jiang Yuan thought something serious happened, and asked concerned: "How is it?"

"Someone is here." Shi Qi said.

"Who?"

"Prince Jing's army."

Jiang Yuan froze in place slightly, feeling that the black shadow came was a bit strange, it seemed not only related to her, but also related to Prince Jing.

Just as she was thinking, the inn was surrounded by troops inside and outside, and a handsome man in a splendid costume walked out of the black army.

Jiang Yuan knew early on that this Prince Jing was different from the fat prince with big ears that most people imagined.

Prince Jing's name is Jing Anrui, he was originally a general, and he made great military exploits with old general Jing in his weak years. After the old general passed away, he was suddenly appointed king by the former emperor and stayed in Beijing.

In the eyes of outsiders, this is the great glory of the Jing family, but Jiang Yuan understands that this is the use of a different surname to weaken Prince Jing's military power, making him fall from a general who controls the military power to a prince in name only.

It's just that Jiang Yuan never expected Prince Jing to be so young. Although his eyes were sharp and his brows were full of heroism, he still couldn't hide his overly fair skin and feminine appearance.

Moreover, I heard that Prince Jing is now in his thirties, and he is still unmarried, and only devotes himself to state affairs, sharing the worries of the current incompetent emperor.

Jiang Yuan turned his head to look at Lin Kong who was bewildered beside him, and still stood there calmly.

Jing Anrui's eyes were filled with the charm of a superior person. Seeing Jiang Yuan standing neither humble nor overbearing, walking towards her, he said in a deep voice, "You are Jiang Yuan?"

"Grassman Jiang Yuan has seen the prince." Jiang Yuan followed the etiquette of the Dajing Dynasty and knelt down to salute Jing Anrui, and Lin Kong and Shiqi also knelt down and saluted.

Lin Kong knelt down and looked up at Jing Anrui. She felt that Prince Jing's outfit looked familiar, but she didn't remember where she had seen it before.

Jing Anrui stared at Lin Kong calmly for a while, then turned to Jiang Yuan in a low voice: "If you condone your husband's rudeness, aren't you afraid that this king will take the opportunity to punish you?"

"Cao Min and Husband didn't do any bad things, and the prince enforces the law impartially, so naturally he is not afraid." Jiang Yuan knew very well that a proper exchange of secrets would make the transaction easier.

Since they are all like-minded people, she should also sincerely hand over her chips.

The first chip is that her husband is a woman, and the second chip is naturally the secret at the fingertips.

The most important thing to use each other is benefit. She wanted to be used by Prince Jing with peace of mind in the future, so she naturally had to make herself look both valuable and weak.
