Datang: I am so happy to marry a disfigured princess!

Chapter 125 Tricksters and Agitators

In the government office, Li Ningxi and Li Lizhi were assigned the best rooms. Although they were far inferior to those in the palace, they no longer had to sleep on the uncomfortable floor.

Xiaolan was also packing her things, trying her best to make the environment more comfortable for the two of them.

Li Lizhi was lying on the bed, looking rather listless.

When she saw the tragic situation of the victims for the first time, something seemed to be broken in her heart.

In my father's Tang Dynasty, there were so many people who didn't have enough to eat, and they all ended up like this
She had also thought about Lin Heng's words before, thinking that the scenario of victims starving to death was unlikely to exist after all. After all, her understanding of the Tang Dynasty was that the country was peaceful and the people were peaceful, and the weather was smooth, so she couldn't help but feel a little depressed.

"elder sister?"

Li Ningxi was sitting aside, holding the manuscript Lin Heng had written these days and looking at it with a worried expression.

After Li Lizhi shouted several times, she came back to her senses and put a smile on her face.

"What's wrong, Changle?"

"I want to go out and have a look."

Li Ningxi shook her head: "Lin Langjun specifically told me not to let you go out. The situation outside may be more terrifying than you imagine..."

The book in her hand is Lin Heng's prediction of the number of local disaster victims who may die, using [-] as the base number.

And those numbers are heart-wrenching just to look at, not to mention that these things are really happening.

She didn't let Li Lizhi see this, and she didn't want Li Lizhi to see it either. She was still young, and she was at the age where she should be jumping around and having fun, so she shouldn't accept these things too early.

Li Lizhi's face lost all thoughts of joking and looked a little serious.

"Sister, as a princess of the Tang Dynasty, I should naturally take a look at the real situation of the Tang Dynasty. I'm not afraid. I just want to know what the real Tang Dynasty is like."

The truth is often not that beautiful, especially in this era. Some people will starve to death, but their neighbors may be living a comfortable life with plenty of fish and meat. To a large extent, this is the reality.

Li Ningxi still wanted to refuse, but Li Lizhi's determination made her a little moved.

Then she walked to the door and found Su Dingfang, asking if she could walk on the street in front of the door. Su Dingfang originally refused, but after hearing what Li Ningxi said, she agreed.

"I don't know how Mr. Lin feels now. I just wonder if I can do my part to help Mr. Lin instead of sitting here all the time."

"If it's just at the door, there won't be any danger. With General Su, there shouldn't be any problem."

Su Dingfang hesitated for a moment, and then called all his personal guards. The safety of the two princesses must be guaranteed when they go out in a place like this.

Immediately, Su Dingfang and others escorted Li Ningxi and Li Lizhi to the street at the door.

As soon as I went out, I saw the funeral team coming towards me. They looked like they had been starved to death, and their exposed arms were already extremely thin.

Li Lizhi couldn't help but exclaimed, but those people didn't have the energy to look at her, so they just walked forward with a dull expression.

Most of the people on this street come to beg. If you approach the government office, you will have a higher chance of meeting a rich person, and you will have a better chance of getting some help to survive. Along the walls of the government office, all the people sitting there are almost hungry. Dead victims.

Li Lizhi held Li Ningxi's hand tightly, her mood was indescribably complicated.

Seeing this, Su Dingfang persuaded him: "Lin's consort has said, don't let the two princesses help, I'm afraid it will cause big trouble."

Both of them were speechless, just looking at everything in front of them.

After the funeral team passed by, it seemed that a cart was coming over there, pulling some seasonal vegetables. After he saw the funeral team, he immediately avoided it, but because the rotation was too large, he didn't have much strength. , causing the cart to overturn.

Seeing this, a large group of people immediately stepped forward to rob it.

The farmer's eyes turned red when he saw this, and he picked up a stick and beat him. Perhaps these people knew that they were in the wrong and did not dare to fight back when they were beaten and scolded, so they just took the vegetables and put them in their mouths.

There were a few people on the spot who were beaten to a bloody head, but they started running after eating the vegetables, and some were knocked to the ground with sticks by farmers who were not serious or serious, and no one paid attention to them.

Seeing that he couldn't stop him, the farmer was so anxious that he cried on the spot.

"Don't grab it. I need to take out these dishes to save my life. My wife at home hasn't eaten for several days!"

"Aren't you trying to cut off people's livelihoods? I only have so much food left in my house, and you are trying to kill people!"

"Oh my god, this is going to kill people..."

Seeing this situation, Li Ningxi and others couldn't help but feel pity, and the assassin Su Dingfang reminded him again: "Even if the princess helps him, can this person really survive? Will anyone else help him in the future?"

These words were very cruel, almost like a sharp sword thrust into their hearts. If they couldn't help, how could they not help?But they are capable... "There are still many such people in the world. If this disaster relief is successful, more and more such people will survive..."

When the two women heard this, their eyes were red, and they helped the man without giving orders.

There are too many people like this in the world. They can't help them all, and even His Majesty can't do anything about it.

But Li Ningxi still couldn't bear it and took out her dry food and handed it to Su Dingfang.

"Please, General Su, please send someone to his home quietly without letting him notice."

Su Defi looked at the dry food and finally nodded.

The farmer left, not even his car, and he couldn't save the remaining vegetables.

In today's world, we really might as well just die.
Among the people snatching it, there was a little girl of four or five years old, holding an unknown variety of melon in her hand and gnawing hard.

There was blood on her face, and it was obvious that she had been hit with a stick by the farmer just now.

Li Lizhi walked up to the girl, and couldn't bear to take out a cake and quietly put it into the little girl's clothes. The little girl stared at Li Lizhi for a while, and then flew away.

This scene was seen by a beggar. He immediately pointed at Li Lizhi and his group: "They have something to eat, they have something to eat!"

In an instant, countless people looked at them. Some knelt down and kowtowed in the street, some kneeled and crawled this way, and some kept encouraging people around them to come here and hide behind them.

Su Dingfang immediately drew his sword, and the surrounding guards also drew their swords.

"Who dares to offend!"

Li Lizhi was immediately startled, and then she understood why Li Ningxi asked someone to do it. Li Lizhi was already very careful when she saw what Li Ningxi did, but she was still seen.

In the past, these people would be afraid of swords, but now they are still moving closer.

Su Dingfang immediately ordered: "All officers and men obey the order, open a road ahead, and send you two back home!"

"Order!"

Only when someone dies can someone be afraid. After cutting a beggar who rushed to grab something in two with a knife, these people were really frightened.

Su Dingfang knew that it was not advisable to stay here for a long time, as riots were likely to occur, and the safety of the princess would be in trouble. After all, these people were not enemies, and he would not really kill someone unless he did something too outrageous.

After much difficulty, they escorted Li Ningxi back to the government office. At this time, the government office was already surrounded by victims, who were outside clamoring for food.

When Su Dingfang saw this, he immediately asked Li Lizhi, who looked unhappy, to go back to the house, while he stationed himself at the door with his own soldiers and people from the government office.

"The princess is here, if she dares to offend again, she will be killed without mercy!"

Someone suddenly shouted: "What's wrong with the princess! We don't have enough to eat, and it's not because of you guys..."

When someone spoke, naturally someone responded, and soon the public voice was overwhelming.

Su Dingfang also squinted his eyes, sensing the smell of conspiracy.

He dared to encourage the people to rebel. This was definitely not something ordinary people could say. I am afraid that behind it was the officialdom of Henan.

"Who was talking just now? If someone confesses, I will reward you with a dou of grain!"

Su Dingfang immediately sent someone to get the rice. When they saw the rice, countless people's eyes turned red.

Almost instantly, the man was squeezed out. At this moment, the man looked flustered and was about to leave in a hurry.

But Su Dingfang grabbed him and pressed his head against the wall.

"Who sent you here?"

The man gritted his teeth and said, "Isn't this the truth? What are you trying to hide..."

Without saying a word, Su Dingfang chopped off the man's head and threw it on the ground.

People who are strict-mouthed don’t bother to talk to them!

Seeing the scene in front of them, the people around him were immediately frightened and fled in all directions.

"Clean these up, don't let Prefect Zhou feel uncomfortable."
