The shopkeeper next to him poked his head out when he heard the commotion here, he looked around first, then he waved to Xu Ji at a later date, and said in a low voice, "Son, something happened to your stall."

Jiang Buwan hurried forward, but she didn't enter the house, but asked on the street.

"Uncle Wang, what happened?"

Uncle Wang, who was selling oil next door, said in a low voice, "Old Xu somehow offended the people in the prime minister's mansion, not only the store was smashed, but he was also arrested and sent to the prime minister's mansion."

"Why do they arrest people at will? My uncle didn't break the law!"

Uncle Wang shook his head, "The people above want to kill us, just like killing an ant. It all depends on their wishes."

Jiang Buwan knew that the world was dark today, but she never thought that this darkness would fall on her again and again.

She asked in a tone that was almost innocent to sad, "Is there no king's law? Is there no one to care about?"

"Wang Fa? That's the prime minister's mansion, the prime minister's mansion of the emperor's in-laws."

At this time, the sound of horseshoes came from the street in the distance. He seemed to be afraid of getting into trouble, so he quickly closed the door and retreated.

His unbearable eyes fell on Jiang Buwan through the crack of the door, and a reminder was his kindness as an ordinary person.

"Follow your cousin and escape."

The horseshoe was approaching, but it was just a group of passing boys and buddies. They didn't even stop when they passed by Jiang Buwan and others. In their eyes, the two children on the street were no different from the stones and trees on the street.

If you get hit and killed, just pay a few taels of silver.

Xu Ji backed away in a hurry and was almost stepped on by the horse's hoof. Jiang Buwan dragged Xu Ji into the alley to take shelter temporarily.

"Wanwan, have parents really been taken to the Prime Minister's Mansion?"

Xu Ji's voice was trembling, and he couldn't help crying, "Wanwan, do you think I am a natural disaster? Anyone who comes near me will die."

Xiang Zhihan had been following Jiang Buwan as a cat image, and when he heard Xu Ji say this, he raised his eyes and looked at Jiang Buwan worriedly.

He really does not open which pot to lift which pot.

Jiang Buwan was stunned for a moment, and briefly wondered if it was her problem.

Because she was born with a disaster, her parents were robbed and died, and her aunt and uncle were taken away by the prime minister's mansion, and her life and death are unknown.

But she quickly came to her senses, no, it was definitely not her problem.

It was never her that was the problem, it was this chaotic and hopeless world.

The reason why her parents met with thieves was traced to the root cause of the flood in the Yellow River, which submerged the three continents downstream, and hundreds of thousands of people were displaced. They either starved to death or became thieves to rob others for a living.

The rogues plundered everywhere, but the government ignored them and deliberately covered her up, causing her parents to be killed by the rogues.

"Cousin!" Jiang Buwan's eyes were determined, "This is definitely not our problem."

After Xu Ji said this, he actually regretted it.

He knew that Jiang Buwan was actually the same as him, how sad she must be if he said such a thing.

But when he looked at Shangjiang Buwan with firm eyes, the self-pity he had been complaining for a long time was relieved at this moment.

Was it not his reason?It wasn't that he killed his own parents.

Xu Ji wiped away his tears and said, "Wanwan, let's go to the Prime Minister's Mansion to find my parents."

"it is good."

By the time the two of them arrived at the Prime Minister's Mansion, they had already gone to the west building.

The prime minister's mansion has blue tiles and stone lions on the vermilion gate. The gate is closed tightly, but you can vaguely hear the melodious sound coming from inside.

Jiang Buwan looked at the majestic gate in front of him. If he said he was not afraid, it must be impossible.

But she was more worried about her aunt and uncle.

They are her only relatives in this world.

Jiang Buwan cheered himself up silently in his heart, then went forward to knock on the door.

The rich door was quickly opened from the inside, and two young servants came out facing them. The young servant looked them up and down, and said, "Do you understand the rules? This is a place where people like you can go?"

"Go, go, if you need anything, go to the side door."

Jiang Buwan quickly seized the opportunity to ask, "My lord, do you know where Butcher Xu is?"

"What butcher Xu, butcher Li, I warn you that if you continue to pester me, I will serve you with a stick!"

After the boy finished speaking, he shook his sleeve angrily, and slammed the door shut.

Jiang Buwan looked at the closed rich door, it was tall and gorgeous, like a barrier that could never be crossed.

A door divides the same world into two. Inside the door is the music of joy and enjoyment, while outside the door stand two helpless and frightened children.

Jiang Buwan raised his head, there were two completely different destinies separated by a rich gate, why should their lives be inferior to grass?
She remembered that the parents and officials in her hometown said hypocritically that the court had no money, and if they wanted to get crowdfunding to suppress the bandits, their family obviously donated money, but the bandits failed to be suppressed, and the parents and officials welcomed several concubines.

"Wanwan?"

Jiang Buwan looked back with calm eyes, "Let's go, let's go to the side door to have a look."

Although Xu Ji played with Jiang Buwan every day, and in terms of age, he was older than Jiang Buwan, but Jiang Buwan was much more mature than him.

Jiang Buwan went to knock on the side door again, but before she knocked, she suddenly found that Xiao Bai who had been following her had disappeared.

But thinking that Xiaobai has always been smart, he shouldn't get lost, and in this case, it is obviously more important to find his uncle and aunt.

"Is Butcher Xu in the mansion?"

The boy at the side door was not dressed as decently as the boy at the main door, and his appearance was also far inferior, but his arrogance was not lost at all.

"What butcher Xu? I don't know him. Not all cats and dogs can enter the Prime Minister's Mansion."

Jiang Buwan was about to continue speaking, but was stopped by Xiao Bai who came back, holding her skirt in his mouth, as if not letting her go.

"Xiaobai, now is not the time to play around, let me go." As soon as she finished speaking, the side door of the Prime Minister's Mansion slammed shut.

"noob!"

Regardless of her angry tone, Xiang Zhihan insisted on pulling her to the left. He had just surveyed the topography of the Prime Minister's Mansion.

At the base of the wall on the west side of the Prime Minister's Mansion, there is a dog hole covered by weeds, just enough for one person to pass through.

He also smelled a strong human scent next to the dog hole, presumably it was a hole specially left by the people inside the prime minister's mansion.

"Xiaobai, let me go."

In Jiang Buwan's eyes, Xiao Bai, who was always smart, suddenly dragged her to another direction as if he had lost his mind.

She looked in the direction where Xiaobai was pulling her. Could it be that Xiaobai found something there?

"Xiaobai, did you find anything over there?"

Xiaobai let go of his mouth and raised his head to meow.

"Take me there."

Seeing that Jiang soon understood what it meant, Xiang Zhihan led her towards the west, and after a few steps, he would stop and turn around to wait for her.

Xu Ji: "Wanwan, Xiaobai is just a cat, is it useful for us to follow him?"

"Xiaobai is very smart." Jiang Buwan said, "Let's follow up first."

Xiang Zhihan pushed aside the grass in front of him with his cat's paw, and a dog hole that could pass through by one person appeared in front of them.

In the past two days, Xu Liang has been crazy, busy calling him~ my old baby
