Qin Yining frowned and looked worriedly at the direction Gao Dianshi and his party left.
When she made a plan with Zhao Wanjin, she knew that Gao Dianshi would definitely not be good when she saw Zhao Wanjin. A few slaps and kicks were all light, and I feared that there would be torture waiting for Zhao Wanjin in the future.
She felt a little unbearable and guilty, but Zhao Wanjin patted her chest and said, "What I hate most is the cruel officials who are fishy and fleshy people. If they can take down such people and bring out the old alliance leader, I just suffer. A little skin injury, this is a good deal. My inner kung fu leader doesn't know, but when I use it, they can't hurt my inner abdomen, and the leader can rest assured."
Qin Yining was still worried, but when he hesitated, both Zhao Wanjin and Zhao Yinuo reassured that Qin Yining believed that Zhao Yinuo was more certain than Zhao Wanjin.
But now that Zhao Wanjin was taken away, she was still worried.
"Bingtang, go back and prepare the medicine pill, we are ready to send it in at any time."
Bingtang nodded and tightened the cloak that Qin Yining slipped onto her arms, "Don't worry, Princess, I have already done everything according to your instructions."
"That's good." Qin Yining finally felt a little relieved.
At this time, the people in the square were in an uproar when they thought about it.
These cruel officials in the old capital never cared about their life or death, and whenever the imperial court sent out alms, it was also the first to fill the wallets of these scumbags.
Now a kind-hearted person has finally come here, willing to buy food and clothes for them who have never known each other. Many people were pulled back from the brink of starvation and freezing to death. Zhao Wanjin is their reborn parent. , seeing such a good person being treated like this, I still don't know how much hardship I have to endure in the yamen, how can there still be people who can sit still
When everyone was clamoring and scolding cruel officials and corrupt officials, Zhao Yinuo stood in the position of Zhao Wanjin just now with a bitter face: "My fellow villagers and elders, please listen to me."
Everyone was silent and looked ahead suspiciously.
Zhao Yinuo rubbed his red eyes and said loudly, "I'm the big shopkeeper of Boss Qian's house, and everyone has seen what's going on now. Our boss was arrested, and now our life and death are unknown. , If we can't bring people home intact, I don't have the face to see our grandfather. So this porridge factory, I'm afraid I don't have the experience to run it again. Big guys, hurry up and eat while it's hot, and leave early. ."
When everyone heard this, the disappointment in their eyes could hardly be concealed.
No matter who they are, when they see hope of living, they are suddenly told that they will not continue to help them in the future, and their negative emotions will rise.
However, everyone who saw with their own eyes how Qian Dashan was captured, it was difficult for everyone to resent the person who spoke at this time.
Qian Dashan was arrested, and there is no one in charge in the family. The servants have to dredge up the relationship to save the owner, and it is excusable that they have no time and energy to take care of the porridge factory.
Blame it, and blame the cruel officials who captured Qian Dashan!
The thick porridge in the bowls and the dry food in the hands of the people are already cold, and they are all stunned in place, not knowing what to do. After eating today's meal, they will have no hope tomorrow
They already had a glimmer of hope, and they could survive this harsh winter, but once Qian Dashan was arrested, where would they go to find someone with such kindness and financial resources? Their hope of survival was easily deprived by Gao Dian Shi!
There were low sobbing sounds from the crowd. Some old and weak women and children were afraid to eat porridge and dry food. They planned to save it for tomorrow when they were really hungry. The younger ones are out of anger.
"Good people don't get good rewards! What's her mother's reason!"
"God, you don't open your eyes!"
"Corrupt official Gao Dian Shi is all Gao Dian Shi's fault!"
The square is like hot oil in a pot, and the waves of scolding are louder and louder. They have nowhere to vent their fear of the future and their resentment of being deprived of food. They can only vent a little by roaring.
"This Gao Dian Shi has never done good deeds in the city, and his son is not a thing!"
"I can see that these cruel officials are eating the food of the public family, but they refuse to avenge the common people, and instead give us grievances!"
"To put it bluntly, what is our little life in the eyes of these cruel officials? Isn't it just a matter of people's mouth to kill a few dozen?"
"My God, this is God's end to our life!"
…
Cursing and mourning were mixed together, and the whole square was filled with anger. The porridge and dry rations were distributed, but the people did not leave immediately. They still stayed where they were, and got together with familiar people to discuss how to save Qian Dashan.
—
Qin Yining put down the warm curtain of the carriage and sighed softly, "Let's go home."
"Yes."
Bingtang and Jiyun instructed to go down, the driver gave the order, and the carriage moved slowly.
Wooden wheels roll across the blue-brick streets, and the carriages jolt regularly as they pass through the brick cracks. The lifelike golden butterfly on the oriental pearl flower head hairpin that was inserted obliquely on Qin Yining's head also swayed gently.
After being speechless all the way, when he returned to the palace, the shopkeeper Zhong Da rushed to ask Qin Yining, "Master, what should I do next?"
Qin Yining raised her brows when she thought of the refugees in the square.
"How are they doing now?"
"The crowd in the square hasn't dispersed yet. Everyone is in anger. Maybe they are discussing going to Gao Dianshi's house to plead for mercy, and some people say that they are going to the yamen to seek grievances and ask the magistrate to let them go."
Yang Zhifu sits in the old capital and is in charge of the surrounding towns.
Qin Yining's brows furrowed slightly, "Being able to stand out as a commoner and have the courage to ask for mercy to Zhao Wanjin shows Zhao Wanjin's status in the hearts of commoners."
"Yes." The shopkeeper Zhong Da also sighed: "The weather is freezing cold these days, and the old capital has experienced successive years of disasters. The common people have already gone through unbearable pain. But this winter. That's why Zhao Wanjin is revered as a living fairy by them."
"So, the people's demands are really not high." Qin Yining shook his head with a sigh, "I want this situation, but I can't stand watching everyone starve to death and freeze to death. ."
The shopkeeper Zhong Da changed his face and asked, "Princess, do you mean to continue serving porridge?"
"Yeah." Qin Yining nodded and narrowed his eyes, thinking carefully about how to deal with the current situation.
The shopkeeper Zhong Da said anxiously: "But isn't this kind of scene also arranged by the princess? Now that I have started to cook porridge again, isn't the anger of the common people lessened? The princess should think twice."
Qin Yining smiled and said, "You're right. But do you know when people's anger is at its highest?"
