Chapter 112 Beauty Lamp (715)
With these two confused brothers on the table, even if Bao Qin has seven points of quick wit, at this moment he has to spend nine points on making up for it.

On the long corridor, Baoqin, wearing an off-white cloak, walks in a hurry. On the whole body of the snow-white cloak, on the left side of the hat and at the waist, there are two exquisite late plum blossoms embroidered. This is Suzhou's embroidery technique. Almost fake.

As the girl took several steps, the plum blossoms on the cloak flowed and fluctuated under the light outside the corridor, really like a plum blossom in the snow.

Walking to the door of Xue Biao's room, Baoqin pushed the door open and entered regardless of the owner's absence.

All the way to the closet, she thought about how her brother dressed when he went out this morning.

"Miss, how about this one?" Chunyan was a little more clever than Xueyan, and took the initiative to help her lady pick up the clothes.

Xue Baoqin looked at the clothes in the servant girl's hand, but shook her head.It's not bad, this fox fur cloak is good-looking, and it's warm enough.But my brother is out of the city this time for disaster relief, so it's ridiculous to hang around in this dress.

It can neither affect work, but also keep warm and fit.Xue Baoqin turned her head and thought for a while, and picked out a goose feather cloak with a straight collar, the color was dark red, even if it was stained with dust, it would be hard to see.

"This one is good, this one is good." Chun Yan said happily, took the clothes from Bao Qin, and was about to turn around and leave.

"Yan'er, wait a little longer." Baoqin called her suddenly.

Chunyan turned sideways and blinked curiously.

Didn't you find the young master's clothes?He's going home to stay at night, so he doesn't need to bring two pieces.

Xue Baoqin couldn't help biting her lower lip. Her lips were not as thin and flexible as Daiyu's. Instead, they were plump and ruddy with vermilion lips. Just by looking at them, they reminded people of ripe fruits .

She turned her back, recalling Chen Heng's figure, her little face couldn't help but blush.The raised fingers paused on each piece of clothing. Baoqin remembered that he likes to wear blue long gowns, if they match according to his preferences.

This light green goose feather cloak with straight collar is pretty good.Xue Baoqin nodded secretly. Chen Heng's figure was only a little taller than Xue Biao, so it would be appropriate to take his brother's clothes right now.

"You take it with you too." When Xue Baoqin turned around, the blush on her face had been suppressed.She handed the clothes to Chunyan, and said, "Before you go out, tell Guanshi Xu that he will send a servant to accompany you out of the city."

"Then who should I give it to?" Chunyan was stunned, and couldn't react for a while.

This idiot, you can just take it to your elder brother. He has such a good relationship with Chen's brother, can he still wear it for others?
Xue Baoqin controlled her vibrato, and said as ordinary as possible: "To Brother Chen."

"Oh." Chunyan nodded, without any doubt, just took the clothes and ran outside.

Seeing the maid leave, Bao Qin sighed helplessly, stretched out her hand and pulled the white cloak.Just as she closed the closet and was about to get up to leave, Chunyan came back with a sad face.

"Miss, miss, I remembered that the city gate is only open for two hours a day now."

Ah, Baoqin opened her mouth slightly, suddenly she realized it.

It’s true that a wise man must make mistakes. Baoqin comforted Chunyan and said, "It's okay, I just didn't remember it all at once. In this case, let's go to the back kitchen to prepare some food, and you can take it with you when the time comes."

This preparation took a lot of effort.

Baoqin thought of her elder brother's character of making friends, and Qian Dayou and Jiang Yuanbai who had been to the house several times, so she simply prepared four or five people.

After finishing this work, it will be about the same time before leaving the city.

Chunyan holds a full food box in her left hand and two pieces of clothes in her right hand.Some weird people got on the carriage to leave.

Our family is not short of clothes, since we have cooked dishes for four or five people, why not pick out a few more clothes?
Come to think of it, this is the second mistake of a wise man.

…………

Chen Heng, Xue Biao and others followed the officials out of the city, and the government's ban naturally couldn't stop them.

When the students came outside the city, they were shocked by what they saw.

In the cold winter, dense crowds of victims sat around the river bank and on the official road.

In the distance, in the second uncle's shop, several people were busy cooking porridge.

The officials came here with the students from the academy, met with a few soldiers first, and handed over the matter.

Leaving behind another old official who was able to talk and talk, he rushed back to the city with most of his colleagues.

There are still a lot of things in the city waiting for them to go back to deal with, and there is no time for the scholars to get familiar with it slowly.

Among this group of people, Cui Youdao has the highest reputation.He followed behind the old official and wrote down the things to do in a while.

The other students didn't wait for the signal, and assigned a few people to take over the cooking task on the spot.

"You need to count where they come from, whether they have family members, whether they are in the city or outside the city. If you encounter someone who is missing someone, you can ask them to write down the information. We made a bulletin board before, and you just order someone to post it on it. Above. Be careful when you go out to talk, among these people, there may be hidden weapons..."

This old official surnamed Jia actually didn't agree with letting these talented people get involved.

Reading and doing things are two different things. No matter how good your academic performance is, it is all in the book.Dealing with people depends on another brain.

But no matter how much he disagreed in his heart, there was nothing he could do. Right now Yangzhou City needed to employ people everywhere.

The counties also sent letters over and over again, asking the government to send people to help.

Everyone can't wait to break it in half, and it's always good to have a few more helpers right now.

Seeing what the old official said was so detailed, Cui Youdao hurriedly nodded in agreement.

But this old official didn't dare to take it too seriously, the other party was a master after all, so he had to be more careful in what he said.

This is another difficulty. The people who really know how to do things are in low positions, but the high-ranking people are bookish scholars.I don't know if the communication after that will be smooth.

Chen Heng and Xue Biao at this end were recognized by Chen Huaijin as soon as they approached the porridge shop.It is difficult for my own children to admit their mistakes even if they look at their backs from a distance.

"Heng'er, why did you come out?" Chen Huaijin's head was full of question marks, "You are not at home supervising your younger brothers' studies, what are you doing out here?"

Chen Huaijin had seen a lot of fights and injuries in the past few days. When he saw Chen Heng here, he felt 1 disagreements in his heart.

After Chen Heng clarified what happened in the academy, Chen Huaijin could only sigh, and dragged Chen Heng, Xue Bian and others to the porridge shop, "Stay here honestly, outside is no better than in the city, and everyone listens to second uncle Yes. You don’t even know that these people rushed all the way to Yangzhou, and what outrageous things they did on the way.”

"Did you see the officer and soldier with the bandaged arm? A few days ago, he only said a few loud words to people, and then he was stabbed by a refugee. Fortunately, it was in his hand. If he was stabbed in the body, half his life would be lost." Chen Huaijin quietly pointed at the soldiers guarding the porridge shop.

Jiang Yuanbai was stunned, his blood boiled from listening to it in the academy, and he felt that the matter was tricky after hearing this, and he was a little scared and said: "Is it so terrible? What happened to that refugee?"

Chen Huaijin said noncommittally: "Kill it, what else can I do."

Chen Heng raised his eyebrows, the atmosphere outside the city was indeed much more tense than he thought.

But this can't be blamed on anyone, the sage also said: "The warehouse is full and you know the etiquette."The victims felt that they had no way out, so their tempers were naturally violent.

What should be done to make the victims put down their guard?Chen Heng frowned and thought about it. If the stalemate continues like this, tens of thousands of disaster victims will make trouble, and it is definitely not something that can be easily resolved.

"No rush." ​​Seeing his friend's worry, Xue Biao knew that the other party must have thought of something he hadn't noticed, so he could only comfort him first, "Found the situation first before we talk about it."

Chen Heng nodded, what Xue Biao said made sense.Only by ascertaining the cause can we prescribe the right medicine.

I just took this opportunity to see if the strategy I wrote yesterday is just on paper and whether it can be applied in practice.

Several people were busy in the porridge shop until the afternoon, but they waited for two unexpected people.

First, Xin Suzhao, who came riding a red light, and with ten soldiers, stood outside the porridge shop and smiled at his classmates: "I didn't expect that I would come."

"Su Zhao, you are too majestic." Qian Dayou exclaimed on the spot seeing the opponent's appearance in armor and bow.

Which man can stand this kind of temptation, the silver saddle shines on the white horse, rustling like a shooting star.

"Hahahahaha." Xin Suzhao raised his head proudly, showing off in front of acquaintances, this is really cool.

He turned over and jumped off the horse, "Knowing that you are here, I specially asked for my life to come here, and we have shared weal and woe today."

Jiang Yuanbai circled around the red light, this kind of handsome and extravagant thing, even in books, can only be seen occasionally.

"Amazing, Brother Xin, your horse is really beautiful."

Xin Suzhao almost showed his pride on his face, "Be careful, this horse has a strong personality. If you want to get kicked, don't blame me."

A few people were chattering in the cold wind, and a beautiful figure also came to the porridge shop, "Master, Miss ordered me to deliver something."

Seeing that it was Chunyan, Xue Biao hurried forward to welcome her in with the servant.

"Here, these are the clothes that Miss picked out for you and the young master of the Chen family. She is worried that you two won't wear enough." Chun Yan didn't pay much attention to the people in the arena, and directly handed over two thick fleece and thick clothes.

"Do you have ours?" Jiang Yuanbai asked with a look of hot eyes.

"Miss has prepared food for everyone." The little maid asked inappropriately.

When everyone heard this, they couldn't help but looked at the two people who were getting dressed together.

　I can't bear it, I can't bear it, I'm going to have dinner and have a look.

　　There are a lot of things at work these days, the update time may be irregular, brothers, please bear with me.
