Chapter 262: The Beloved Woman 4
After talking, Qin Wan'er and she packed up, bowed and left without mentioning anything.
…
The current situation in the world is extremely turbulent. Although Murong Xiao ascended the throne as emperor and massacred the courtiers loyal to Murong Shun, he only controlled a small part of the world, and the throne was not stable.
Qin Wan'er and Murong Shun walked south along the canal and saw some hungry people affected by the disaster along the way. The disaster in Jiangnan seemed to have caused a lot of harm to Murong Xiao, the newly crowned emperor.
After leaving the capital, Qin Wan'er's mood gradually became less and less pursued. She rode horseback and whipped her whip with Murong Shun all the way, feeling very comfortable.
"Wan'er, we're tired from the journey, let's go ahead and have a rest first." Murong Shun looked at the sweat on Qin Wan'er's temples and couldn't help but feel extremely distressed. "Follow me, but you will suffer."
"Sanlang said that, but it's foreign." Qin Waner smiled, took Murong Shun's hand and sat down at a tea stall on the roadside.
The terrain here is quite open, just beside the official road. You can see the people and horses coming and going clearly. It is very lively. Qin Wan'er asked how far it is from the nearest town, and then she felt relieved and experienced the above.
I was forced into a dangerous situation by wolves for the first time and had nowhere to escape, but I never dared to spend the night in the wild again.
"Shopkeeper, bring me a pot of good tea." A group of official-looking people sat carelessly on chairs, looking extremely domineering.
Murong Shun saw the mixed dragons and snakes here, glanced at Qin Wan'er again, and said: "Let's leave after drinking tea. It's getting dark and we have to hurry up."
Qin Wan'er nodded and drank a bowl of herbal tea, instantly alleviating the heat in her body. However, seeing the large number of hungry people passing by the official road, Qin Wan'er couldn't help but feel sympathy.
Since Murong Xiao ascended the throne, he has focused more energy on getting rid of Murong Shun's forces. This money naturally became indispensable for bribers. Although he held a treasure that was as rich as the country's, Murong Xiao still made the people more miserable.
Taxation, this disaster in Jiangnan has made the people even worse.
"It's not easy for me to eat this bowl of official rice. I brought a few imperial prisoners back from the capital a few days late and got a beating."
"Who says it's not the case? This county magistrate is too harsh. He keeps all the money appropriated by the court, and he doesn't even have a chance to drink soup."
All the complaints from the officials fell on Murong Shun's ears. Although Qin Wan'er knew that Murong Shun's face was as calm as ever at this moment, her heart was already ups and downs.
The tea cup tightly held in his hand is enough to show the anger at this moment
"My lord, the total is ten cents." The owner of the tea stall bowed and said with a flattering smile.
"Fuck you, damn, I'm giving you a lot of face by drinking tea here. Do you want more money?" The leader was extremely grumpy and cursed the tea stall owner with his foul words.
readily
But the owner of the tea stall seemed to be used to this matter of arrears of money, and the smile on his face became even more despicable, "Yes, yes, the official is willing to reward me. It is naturally my blessing. It's just a small business, so I still ask the official."
Don’t be embarrassed, sir”
