Chapter 5 The Strange Beggar

This matter has come to an end for the time being. Hua Jian wants to stay away from Li Qinghan, so Li Qinghan will not provoke him if he has nothing to do.

That morning, the spring breeze was blowing, the willows were shady, and the spring flowers were blooming. Li Qinghan was preparing to go out to visit the old lady who was sincerely worshiping Buddha in Puzhong Temple, but it was not enough for her to go by herself, so she insisted on asking Hua Jian to come with her.

In the sedan, Li Qinghan was playing with the handkerchief leisurely and contentedly. In front of him, Hua Jian was riding a horse, looking majestic. Although his face was very ugly now, almost stinking, but despite this, he was still

It makes a lot of girls feel like a deer.

Xinlan was following the sedan when she suddenly made a confused sound. Li Qinghan raised his ears and asked, "What's wrong?"

There were bursts of noisy sounds coming from behind. Li Qinghan, who had been wandering in his mind before, didn't notice it. Now he felt strange and hurriedly opened the curtain to take a look.

Looking from a distance, a group of ragged people were following behind, holding a broken bowl in their hands, and seemed to be begging. There were twenty or thirty such people, both men and women, old and young. The men were skinny and had sunken eyes.

, with sallow complexions and thin skin, the women’s hair was full of dirt, as if they had not been washed for a long time, and the children could no longer walk, lying on their mothers’ backs dying of breath.

Li Qinghan's face suddenly turned dark.

The economic situation of Jinzhou is well known to everyone. A jeweler like Fahrenhe has the courage and iron-like skills of Da Yao Kingdom, as well as the shrewd leader Hua Rong, making his business a success.

Xiang Bili, what he did was all based on his own ability, step by step, to get to this staggering point today. However, Jinzhou today is no longer as good as Jinzhou twenty or thirty years ago. Then

Mingzhou, which was facing north at that time, was originally an excellent place with famous mountains and rivers, thousands of miles of fertile fields, green mountains and flowing water, long grass and orioles flying, and spring-like weather all year round. The people were prosperous, happy, united and friendly. But one year, the imperial court sent

A new official wanted to work hard and manage well, but he didn't know the local situation at all. He only focused on clearing mountains and forests and carrying out large-scale construction projects, resulting in serious soil and water loss. Coupled with natural disasters, there was almost no harvest. But the official

He didn't understand what was wrong with doing this. He thought that the gods in the sky were angry, so he ordered the construction of pagodas. This matter was not reported to the emperor, just because Mingzhou was a bit far away from the capital, and it had always been a fertile land, and at that time

The emperor was busy waging war with the Li Kingdom in the east and had no time to care about these trivial matters.

But once the pagoda was closed, many men were needed again. The new officials prayed to the gods, but to no avail. The people below rose up in rebellion. Finally, they had to report to the court. The emperor was furious and ordered the man's official position to be removed. But there was a new official.

After taking office, he still didn't know how to govern to be effective. After five or six years of this, the environment deteriorated and the people were in dire straits. It became a truly barren land. The emperor had no choice but to send groups of people to investigate one after another.

, hoping to find a good way.

This Jinzhou is just south of Mingzhou, and it has been affected to some extent. Just about ten years ago, a large number of people came from Mingzhou to live in Jinzhou, and the situation in Jinzhou was not as good as before. On the edge of Jinzhou

In this area, every time winter comes, you can feel the rolling yellow sand coming from Mingzhou, and the air getting drier and drier.

Li Qinghan's eyes were about to turn into ice.

She slammed down the curtain and said coldly: "Don't worry about them!"

After receiving the order, Xinlan ordered the people to speed up and walk forward.

At this time, the cries and pleas from behind became louder.

Hua Jian, who was walking in front, also felt something. He frowned and looked back. He was surprised that there were so many beggars here begging. Could they be the beggar gang in the martial arts world?

He kicked the horse in the belly and arrived at the sedan. Seeing that Li Qinghan had no intention of coming out to take a look, he couldn't help but sneered, "Cousin, there are so many poor beggars here. Is your heart made of stone? You haven't even looked at it.

One glance?"

Li Qinghan heard Hua Jian's moderate voice outside, and felt helpless. She said to him through the curtain: "My cousin is very kind and helpful. You can just go by yourself. Why drag me in?" At this point, she stretched out her hand to help him.

The jasper Zan and Phoenix hairpin on his head said casually: "I'm not that rich!"

Hua Jian's eyes widened, boss. The voice of the entire Washington is in your hands. If you say you have no money, who else has money?

Looking at the area behind again, Hua Jian felt that if he didn't show something, he would be too upset. Li Qinghan could turn a deaf ear and turn a blind eye, but he couldn't.

After thinking about it, just as he was about to take out a banknote from his sleeve, he heard Li Qinghan's voice as clear as a bell, "Cousin, please think clearly. Recently, Miss Yu Wushuang seems to be in good health.

I'm afraid I have to prepare a lot of money for a kiss, but I won't lend it to you."

Suddenly he remembered that Yu Wushuang was not in good health a while ago, and he hadn't seen her for a while. There were countless people who liked her, and he was just one of them. Although he had a few money, he was not an official after all. He had no identity and could only rely on money.

To gain Yu Wushuang's favor.

"It seems that my cousin has no intention of giving them anything, even if it's just steamed buns that you usually don't look at." Hua Jian still didn't give up. He simply couldn't imagine the scene that followed.

Suddenly a white and plump little hand opened the car curtain, and Li Qinghan's black and white eyes looked at Hua Jian, "If you give them alms today, they will come to your door tomorrow. Even if they don't come to you, they will come to someone else."

People, cousin, instead of leaving money to them, why not do something meaningful."

As soon as she finished speaking, the sedan suddenly staggered.

Xinlan and Feixu were both shocked and rushed to help Li Qinghan.

The hairpin on Li Qinghan's head was a little messy and she almost fell off. She almost fell out. She frowned and glanced at Xinlan.

A thin man rushed up from behind. Looking at Li Qinghan, who was well-dressed and with an exquisite face, he knelt down in front of her with a "plop!"

Xinlan was shocked. She was originally going to send someone to arrest this man, but unexpectedly he ran up on his own.

Everyone was shocked. Although Li Qinghan had a good temper and rarely punished her servants, he was too cold and cold. They could not help but be cautious in their words and actions for fear of offending her.

A smile appeared on Hua Jian's lips, there was another good show to watch!

Several people came forward to throw the man away, but more victims rushed up from behind. They had no choice but to surround the place and try not to hurt Li Qinghan.

At this time, Xinlan winked at Feixu, and Feixu understood, bowed towards Li Qinghan, and walked quickly towards Washington.

"Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva who saves the suffering! Have mercy on me. I haven't eaten for two days. Please give me some rice!" As soon as the man saw Li Qinghan, he shouted loudly and kowtowed.

But Li Qinghan got out of the sedan with his back straight and no intention of moving at all.

The man stretched out a pair of dirty, scarred hands to grab Li Qinghan's skirt.

Xinlan took a step forward to protect her master, and shouted sternly: "How presumptuous!"

"...Oh, you are so rich, but you are not willing to give out such a small favor. Saving one life is better than building a seven-level pagoda, so please take pity on me!"

At this time, there were more and more cries from behind.

Xinlan frowned inadvertently, looked back at Li Qinghan, who was cold and expressionless, and whispered: "Miss, I still have some money here, why not."

Before she could finish her words, Li Qinghan interrupted her with a wave of his hand, and took a step forward, looking down at the man, "You don't have to kneel down, I won't give you even a grain of rice!"

So heartless and cruel!

The man obviously didn't expect that a little girl who looked thin and frail could speak so decisively.

"Miss, please have mercy on us. My daughter has not eaten for a whole day. If she continues like this, she will die!" A woman's heartbreaking voice came from behind, hurting Li Qinghan's ears.

She turned back and looked over coldly.
