The person Yin Wenzheng found took orders, took the fake military defense map and Jiang Tangzhou's personal belongings, and went out.
He first went down the second floor of Tianxia Restaurant, then went out through the main entrance on the first floor, and quickly disappeared into the crowd. Even Yin Wenzheng, who knew what he looked like, didn't know where he went. As for Jiang Tangzhou, even after distinguishing the other party's footsteps in the noisy voices, he soon lost track of the other party.
Because the voice next to his ear suddenly seemed to explode, completely covering the sound of that person's footsteps.
"Looks like today's good show has come." Yin Wenzheng dropped two taels of silver, picked up the Jiangtang boat, flew out from the window lattice on the second floor of Tianxia Restaurant, and soon landed on the side of the street.
Before Jiang Tangzhou could react, he changed the place and felt helpless: "What good show is worth your excitement?"
"Do you know what day it is today?"
"Um?"
"There is an old man in the Zhou family who is already an octogenarian. He has the closest relationship with the fourth prince. Today is his birthday. The fourth prince must go back to celebrate his birthday." Yin Wenzheng's eyes flashed brightly, "This matter Son, everyone in the capital knows it, but you, those refugees, don't you know?"
Jiang Tangzhou lowered his eyes, thoughtful: "Since the last time the refugees made trouble in the capital, the gates of the capital have been guarded extremely strictly, so even if a large group of refugees wanted to do something, they couldn't get in unless—" Jiang Tangzhou stretched out He poked Yin Wenzheng with his hand and asked him, "What do you think?"
"My A-Tang is so smart, why don't you take a guess?" Yin Wenzheng walked half a circle around the Jiangtang boat, and a half-smile sounded behind his ears, "If you guess right, what you promised me How about doing only two of the three things?"
Jiang Tangzhou said: "I'm afraid you only need me to do two things."
Yin Wenzheng smiled even more: "It really is the smart Atang."
Jiang Tangzhou couldn't hear his coaxing tone, and said with some headaches: "The first thing is to let me help you, and the second thing, what is it? Judging by your appearance, you should have already thought about it."
"Guess." Yin Wenzheng still kept it secret.
"..." Jiang Tangzhou paused for a while, and finally said quietly, "Can you be normal?"
"Huh? Am I abnormal?" Yin Wenzheng tapped the butterfly bone on Jiangtangzhou's back lightly with his jade flute, his voice lowered a bit, "Look, here comes the good show."
The sound of horseshoes is coming, and the bustling west of the city is connected to the east of the city. On one side is a luxurious sedan chair, dragging congratulatory gifts all the way, and on the other side are refugees dressed in rags and clamoring loudly. The children in their arms are also skinny and bony. He was about to pass out in the next moment, he was clearly in a long street, but it looked like two worlds, the gully in between was so long and deep, it was a class that could never be crossed.
Jiang Tangzhou stood aside, and was also involved in the intersection of two classes. A dirty woman grabbed him by the corner of his clothes, knelt on the ground and begged him: "Master, please do me a favor. Give me something to eat, the child in the family is about to starve to death. If it’s not possible, the child will be your servant at home. You can accept him, as long as he can survive... "
On the other side of the long street, there was someone giggling: "I think the pastry shop in the west of the city is always a bit less flavorful, or the one in the east of the city is more delicious. Have you ever tried it? Why don't you eat it if you come back today?" How about taking you to try it?"
Jiang Tangzhou lowered his eyes with a dull expression. He didn't slap the woman's hand off. When he was touching the broken silver in his arms, Yin Wenzheng grabbed it into his arms and covered his ears.
"Don't listen," he said.
Having said that, Jiang Tangzhou still heard the sound of broken silver being thrown into the woman's arms.
"Thank you, sir, thank you, thank you..."
"Hmm." Yin Wenzheng casually took a step back, motioning the woman to get further away from him, but completely protected Jiang Tangzhou behind him.
"I thought you wouldn't give it to him." Jiang Tangzhou said after a long silence.
"If I were alone, of course I wouldn't give it." Yin Wenzheng leaned against the long pillar, with a half-smile, "It's just that I have the most soft-hearted Ah Tang in the world by my side, and I can't see him being sad, so I have to do what he wants to do." , I will follow suit."
Jiang Tangzhou was a little speechless: "You can give it yourself if you want, why should you rely on me?"
Yin Wenzheng didn't say a word for a while, before saying, "Ah Tang, there are too many sufferings in this world, you can't save them one by one."
"But if no one is saved, there will be no less suffering in this world." Jiang Tangzhou retorted firmly, "So do what you can, and consider it as a blessing for yourself."
Yin Wenzheng sneered, seemed to disagree with his statement, and said, "Do you know what to do to minimize the suffering in the world?"
"What?"
"There is a Mingjun." Yin Wenzheng's voice was very low, and he approached him, and the heat hit his earlobe, penetrated into his ears, and also entered his heart, "Before Shang ruled the country today, Hengguo The national power is strong and the people live and work in peace and contentment. This is a rare time for bright career. After the ruling of the country today, the two countries have disputes and evil deeds.
"To save one person, there are still thousands of people struggling in the water and fire, so the real blessing is to save a thousand people, save ten thousand people, and save the common people in this world."
Jiang Tangzhou looked up at him. He tried hard to see the other person's expression clearly, but it was in vain.
After being blind, Jiang Tangzhou wanted to be a normal person for the first time.
He could only faintly see a blurry shadow that merged with the light behind him, so he asked, "Then are you a Mingjun?"
Yin Wenzheng smiled and said, "Do you want me to be a wise king?"
"It's them! It's them!"
"There are only a few of them in the world who can be our masters! Brothers, let's go!"
…
Yin Wenzheng was still waiting for Jiang Tangzhou's answer when the situation in the long street suddenly deteriorated.
Yin Wenzheng sighed regretfully, held Jiang Tangzhou's wrist tightly, and said very quickly: "Watch the show first, and then answer my questions when you get back."
Jiang Tangzhou said "Hmm", just as he hadn't thought about how to answer.
He wanted to say whether to be a Mingjun or not should be decided by Yin Wenzheng himself. He also wanted to say that if he decided not to be a Mingjun, he might not be able to fulfill the three conditions he promised to help him...but so much thought was in the My mind was spinning in circles, I didn't know why, and I couldn't say a word.
The current situation gave him enough time to think.
Ling Yingchong was originally on horseback, blocked by many refugees who suddenly poured in, he didn't even have a chance to speak, the horse he was sitting on ran forward like crazy, Ling Yingchong Afraid that he would step on the crowd, he tried his best to control the horse, and managed to rein in the horse, but was surrounded by many refugees in the middle.
"Who are you?" Ling Yingchong's face darkened, trying to find someone to take the lead in negotiating, but he didn't want to be surrounded by old, weak, sick and disabled, and couldn't find anyone.
"We want to sue!" A middle-of-the-road voice came from an unknown direction, "We all came from Chuinan City, and we wanted to sue, but we couldn't even see the emperor's face. The prince wants to pass by here, so he has no choice but to stop the fourth prince!"
The person who spoke was hidden in the dense crowd, Ling Yingchong looked over, but couldn't see anything.
However, Ling Yingchong had indeed heard a little about the Chuinan city.
It is about that the land of the people in Chuinan City has been occupied by someone. The people in the whole city can only do coolies for others. After working hard all year round, they can't even guarantee food. Not only that, the local salt merchants also drive up prices, causing them They couldn't live in the local area at all, so some people went out of the city and went to Kyoto to file a complaint.
It's been a while since I've been here, except when I first entered the city, I was locked out of the city afterwards, not to mention suing the imperial court, and I couldn't even see a personal minister.
Ling Yingchong frowned: "Everyone who wants to sue, you can go and beat the drum of grievances. It is useless to come here to stop me."
"Big fellow, don't listen to him! He might be with those corrupt officials!"
Someone shouted in the crowd: "He is the emperor's son, he can't be the master, who else can be the master, today we must let him take us to see the emperor!"
"That's right, he is the emperor's son, so he will definitely be able to see the emperor! If we suppress him, we won't be afraid of not seeing the emperor. Anyway, I will starve to death when I go back with my life, so I might as well fight!"
"Yeah, I worked hard!"
"Let's fight!"
…
Someone encouraged them, and the crowd became excited. The people who were afraid of power at the beginning seemed to be ignited instantly, and rushed forward with all kinds of things in their hands, squeezing the horse Ling Yingchong was riding. Crazy, the crowd was in a mess, and the situation was once extremely out of control.
And Yin Wenzheng, who was watching from the sidelines, hid in a safer place with his arms around Jiang Tangzhou.
"He fell." Yin Wenzheng explained while watching, "Can you hear it?"
"I can't hear it, it's too noisy." Jiang Tangzhou shook his head, his ears were filled with voices like "Help me", "Don't push me", "Don't step on me", he sighed, "He will be fine, right? ?”
"No, at the emperor's feet, can something happen to a prince?" After Yin Wenzheng finished speaking calmly, he saw a group of officers and soldiers coming on horseback not far away, "The government is here, let's go."
Jiang Tangzhou hesitated a bit: "But..."
"Don't worry," Yin Wenzheng shrugged, and said, "How many people can swallow him who kills the enemy on the battlefield?" After finishing speaking, Yin Wenzheng looked at Jiangtang Zhou with a sour face, "You So what are you following him for?"
"...I didn't mean that," Jiang Tangzhou sighed, "Forget it, let's go first."
Jiang Tangzhou also knew in his heart that nothing serious would happen to Ling Yingchong, but he still felt a little guilty.
After all, in today's scene, it was Yin Wenzheng who put the actor on stage.
Although Yin Wenzheng didn't say it clearly, Jiang Tangzhou had already guessed it.
