Chapter 1668 Entering the City
"Can't see clearly. In short, we need to be more vigilant." Cui Yunxi said.
Ning Siyu nodded, and then sent the commander in charge of the imperial guards to discuss the precautions along the way.
Because Ning Siyu was going to greet Emperor Hongjing, he did not notify the prefectures and counties along the way, and he did not intend to stop anywhere.
It can be said that this trip was a private tour incognito.
He just wanted to get the ashes of Emperor Hongjing back, and Ning Siyu didn't want to go to war and let local officials use the country's money to waste money.
After re-planning the route to avoid remote mountains and forests and places prone to surprise attacks, we had to pass through two cities to reach Qishan Mountain.
However, Ning Siyu didn't want to disturb the local officials, so he decided not to enter the city. He changed his appearance and pretended to be a business traveler, which could save him a lot of unnecessary trouble.
After packing their luggage, the group did not set off again until the afternoon.
It's been a slow journey.
One day, they came to the outskirts of Anseong.
"Father, can we go into the city and have a look?" Ning Yunxuan looked at Ning Siyu longingly.
This way they walked in sparsely populated wilderness, and often saw no human beings for several days in a row.
The hustle and bustle in Ancheng at this moment naturally attracted Ning Yunxuan to want to take a look.
"Your Majesty, let's take Xuan'er into the city for a walk. We don't want many people following us," Cui Yunxi said.
Ning Siyu nodded and said, "Let them go replenish some supplies, and the three of us can go into the city and wander around without anyone following us."
So, he ordered the guards responsible for purchasing materials to go to An City to purchase materials, while the others rested where they were.
Ning Siyu brought Cui Yunxi and Ning Yunxuan to Ancheng.
Ning Yunxuan was immediately attracted by the various street vendors.
Cui Yunxi took her son to look here and there, happily enjoying the various delicacies on the street.
Ning Siyu followed the two of them step by step. He was the majestic master of a country, but at this moment he was protecting his wife and children like a guard.
"Mom, what are they doing?"
Ning Yunxuan saw a group of children begging on the street, felt compassion in his heart, and asked.
He felt that they were very pitiful. They were dirty and unkempt, and they stretched out their hands to beg for things from people passing by.
"Xuan'er, they are beggars!" Cui Yunxi said truthfully.
"What is a beggar?" Ning Yunxuan asked.
"They are beggars. Their parents are unable to raise them, so they can only come out to beg for food," Cui Yunxi said.
"Mother, can I give these food to them?" Ning Yunxuan said.
"Of course." Cui Yunxi said gently.
Ning Yunxuan then walked over and distributed all kinds of delicious food he bought to the beggars.
After a while, beggars from other places also ran over and surrounded him.
"They are not the only beggars in the world, there are many, many more. Donating money alone will not make a big difference. If there is a welfare home specifically to take them in, it can play a certain role." Cui Yunxi said.
"This Ancheng is still a prosperous place, as can be imagined from other places. I just want to work hard to create some benefits for the people and make there fewer beggars like this." Ning Si Yu said.
"The emperor has done a lot of things that are beneficial to people's livelihood in the past few years. But if we want to eliminate the suffering in the world, in addition to providing them with food and clothing, we must also pay attention to education so that they have the ability to get rid of poverty." Cui Yunxi said.
