The Regent's Sweetheart

Chapter 287 Confession
Hearing this, the two beggars swallowed subconsciously.

It would be a lie to say that I am not afraid, and my heart is already beating at this time.

Lin Jiaojiao didn't want to waste time either, she looked at the two of them and asked, "What did you see in Jia's barn labor camp? Tell me the truth."

One of the two beggars was named Daniu and the other Ergou, and they were afraid to speak up when they were questioned.

Daniel was the first to raise his head, looked at Lin Jiaojiao with slightly cloudy eyes, then quickly lowered his head, and said, "We were just going to beg for something to eat..."

On the second day after the night when the Lin'an government office was slaughtered, the beggars who were outside the city after noon could no longer enter the city.

Daniu and Ergou came out to beg together. There are too many beggars in the city, and it is easy to fight if they get together, and there is a lot of traffic at the city gate wharf. Although it is easy to be driven away by the imperial army, wealth is in danger. ask for.

After this incident, the city was closed, and no one came to Lin'an, and everyone in Lin'an was in danger and stayed at home.

Fortunately, there is a labor camp outside Lin'an City, where they originally begged. They left because they didn't ask for much money, but the only good thing there is that they can get a lot of food.

The labor camp is a bustling place like a town, and there are many vendors doing business outside the labor camp.

They did know people in the labor camp. They used to be beggars with them, but they were recruited by Jia Gucang as laborers because of their good health. Now they don't have to worry about food and clothing.

When they came to the labor camp, it was already dark, and the small vendors outside were also closed, leaving only a Piaoxiang restaurant, but the owner of this restaurant hated beggars the most, and when he saw them, he was beaten away with a stick.

After being beaten once, they didn't dare to beg for food.

They were very hungry, and after turning around, they got into a hole in the labor camp.

There was a kitchen in the labor camp. They groped their way to the kitchen according to the way they remembered, climbed in through the window, stole two cold white flour buns each, and ate two mouthfuls. When they were about to leave, they suddenly heard the noise coming from outside. There is movement.

The frightened two looked at each other, and quickly hid by the water tank.

Although there was movement outside, no one came towards them, and finally the movement became farther and farther away.

After leaving the kitchen, I saw a large group of laborers going to Jia's barn. They were going to work in the middle of the night.

The location of the kitchen is closest to Jia's barn, because these laborers have to eat after finishing their work.

At this time, several cooks had already come to them. In order not to be caught stealing, they could only run towards Jia's barn.

Jia's barn was busy at the moment, and he saw Liang Tangtang from a distance. He left along the edge of Jia's barn, and saw a small pier behind Jia's barn. The pier was lit with torches, and many laborers were carrying things.

There was a ruined temple on the mountainside behind Jia's granary, where they rested at night, and they returned to the ruined temple with white flour buns.

Daniel stopped talking here, and emphasized: "Princess Wangfei, we were so hungry that we went to the kitchen to steal the white flour buns."

Hearing what the two said, Lin Jiaojiao frowned and pondered, working in the labor camp at night?
He wondered again: "When will the dock move things?"

After thinking about it for a while, Daniel estimated, "About a child's hour."

child time?This is strange. According to the curfew in Da Nan, the water transport terminal expressly prohibits the entry and exit of goods at night. As a place run by the government, Jia Gucang knows how to break the law?

The two didn't say they saw the girder changing, they just said they saw the work from a distance, which was different from what Yao Guanglai said.
