Empress, she is beautiful Lu Ziye

Chapter 405 You will suffer if you stay here

The little mushroom head swallowed the cake in his mouth, and hurriedly gulped down his saliva after he finished speaking.

He only ate half of it, wrapped the remaining half in leaves, and carried it in his arms very carefully, like a baby.

Xu Li even cherished it more than him, and only ate one-third of it.

Xiao Rongxi remained calm on the surface, but there were already waves in his heart.

In his eyes, children who are only half a year old are already living such a difficult life?
"Are you all from Jincheng?"

"Ah."

Xu Li saw that the group of people were kind-hearted and short-spoken, so he was embarrassed not to answer the question, so he said a few more words, "He used to live in the city, and his family ran a small business. I live in the suburbs of the city and have a few acres of Susukida .”

Xiao Rongxi: "You guys knew each other before?"

"I don't know each other, but how do you say that sentence, we are both descended from Tianya, and we met after going up the mountain." Xu Lihan laughed twice.

Infected by him, Xiao Rongxi also raised the corners of his mouth.

The breeze passed over the treetops, shaking the green leaves on the branches, and the sun poured down from the gaps, falling on the bodies of the few people in the forest, mottled, but already looking like they were scorching.

Seeing that Nan Zhen raised her hand to slightly block the sun, he passed the folding fan over.

Then he looked at the two people next to him and chatted with them, "This year there is a severe drought in Jinzhong, and there is little rain. I'm afraid the crops in the field will suffer."

"That's not it," Xu Li looked at the sky, and said helplessly, "The crops are all dry, so how can there be a harvest? Most people's surplus food is only enough for one year, and they are still waiting for this autumn harvest. hanging."

According to the solar terms, it is now autumn, but the sun is even worse than the scorching heat, giving people no chance to breathe.

He sighed heavily, raised his hand to wipe off the sweat on his forehead, and only cared about sighing, but Zhu Yong who was at the side was smarter and knew how to ask, "What is your son doing here?"

There was never much fun in Jincheng, and the weather was not suitable. There were very few foreign visitors here at the turn of summer and autumn. He and Xu Li squatted for a few days, and only saw Xiao Rongxi's carriage passing by.

And judging by the dress and demeanor of a group of people, they are not like ordinary people.

Xiao Rongxi replied, "We are out for fun, and we have stopped in many places. We happened to be here today, and we didn't expect to be robbed."

The corners of his eyes twitched slightly, and he smiled slightly, Zhu Yong felt ashamed when he heard it, and his ears turned red again.

Zhu Yong coughed twice, trying to cover up his embarrassment, "Forget it, for the sake of the dry food you gave, I won't steal your other things. You should leave early, there is nothing interesting here."

In his words, half of them were looking for a way for himself, and half of them were persuasion, which made Xiao Rongxi a little interested.

"We are still planning to stay here for a while to experience the local customs and customs."

Zhu Yong: "Young master, you can only feel the heat wave. No matter how nice the people here are, no matter how simple the folk customs are, they can't stand it..."

When the words came to his lips, he suddenly turned a corner, "...I can't stand such a harsh environment."

It's so dangerous, I almost said it.

He remembered that a few days ago, a brother on the mountain came out to rob. He thought he had met a kind person, who not only gave money and food, but also cared about his family's situation.

The brother was very moved and couldn't help complaining a few more words, but he disappeared that day.

They all suspect that the other party is a person who deliberately came to test, and once they say something dissatisfied with the government, they will be arrested immediately.

Although Xiao Rongxi and Nan Zhen don't look like bad guys, it's always right to have more than one mind when it comes to matters of life.

Xu Li also came to his senses at this time, and quickly nodded in agreement, "Yes, the young master will suffer if he stays here."

"People who practice martial arts still practice Sanjiu in winter and Sanfu in summer. How can we be afraid of these things when we go out to play?"

Zhu Yong shook his head, "Hey."

Since I can't persuade you, I won't persuade you there.

Xiao Rongxi could faintly sense something wrong from the two people's words, but couldn't ask anything, so he simply said, "What do you two plan to do in the future, and keep doing this?"

"I haven't thought about it for the time being, but I can eat enough now, so let's do it first." Xu Li said without any complicated thoughts, patted his stomach.

Xiao Rongxi was so angry and funny, he didn't know what to say to persuade these two young people to return to their lost ways.

So he pointed at Fei Liu, "Why don't you see if you can beat him?"

Fei Liu had been conscientiously leaning against the tree with his sword in his arms, he was alert to his surroundings, understood what he said, and threw the sword upwards with a "shua", the branch above his head broke, and then the sword automatically returned to his hand.

The broken branch swayed on the trunk for a few breaths, and finally fell down, right in front of Zhu Yong and Xu Li.

The two looked a little dull, their bodies stiffened, and they didn't speak for a long time.

After he reacted, he immediately picked up the knife in his hand and ran up the mountain, faster than when he rushed down the mountain just now, as if being chased by a ghost, he quickly hid behind the slope and was out of sight.

Xiao Rongxi was dumb, Nan Zhen just smiled and shook her head.

What kind of mountain, even accepting such silly two children.

After a while, Nan Zhen withdrew her gaze and waved her fan intermittently, "Your Majesty, there is something wrong with Jincheng."

Zhu Yong just faltered, obviously concealing something.

"Although it is wrong to rob, these two people are pure-hearted, and they fell into the grass as bandits. There may not be other reasons behind it." Xiao Rongxi narrowed his eyes and looked forward, extending beyond the back forest. "Let's go to the city and have a look."

"Ah."

A group of people got back into the carriage and walked along the winding path, and soon they came out of the woods and came to a flat and open land.

Looking up, there is a tall city wall in the distance, with the word "Jincheng" written on it.

People came and went at the gate of the city, walking in a hurry, but their posture was indescribably depressed, and their complexion was not good.

After entering the city, they first found an inn to settle down, and by the time they were free to sit down, it was already mid-afternoon.

Sitting by the window, Xiao Rongxi followed Nan Zhen's movement of opening the window and looked out, just in time to see a big banyan tree under which someone was enjoying the cool.

He was wearing a commoner coat, his trousers were rolled up, and a sweat towel was around his neck. Looking at his attire, he should be a laborer.
