Ming politicians

The excitement of Town God's Temple really exceeded Su Tiancheng's expectations.

He had seen lively scenes before. In his previous life, he had participated in many large-scale events with dense crowds of people, but they all had traces of organization, but the scene he saw before him was completely different.Before crossing over, he also participated in the temple fair in Beijing. It is said that it was lively enough. Sometimes, there were so many people that it was too crowded. Unfortunately, at that time, the commercial atmosphere was too strong, and many places even had to To collect money.

There are no buildings around the Town God's Temple, but there are so many temporary stalls, which naturally form several streets. Before the people arrive, the noisy sound comes first, the sound of gongs, drums, and shouts, one after another. All kinds, those who wear brand-new clothes, no matter brocade robes or commoner clothes, come to the temple fair to buy things, or to feel the atmosphere. There are several stages, there are people singing on the top, and there are many people around below, watching with relish, and applauding loudly from time to time.

Of course, there are also beggars and poor people, and there are quite a few of them. These people are scattered around, they will not take the initiative to find someone to beg, but they squat silently, hoping to meet kind people.

The most pitiful thing is that some children, especially some little girls, are actually wearing single clothes in winter, standing aside shivering, watching the endless crowd.

Su Tiancheng has already adapted to this era. When he went out, he carried a lot of copper coins, broken silver, and gold. In fact, gold is difficult to use, just like extra-large banknotes. As a hawker, it is impossible to find so much change, so I must bring some change.

Seeing a few little girls shivering from the cold, Su Tiancheng didn't give them copper coins directly. He bought some food at a nearby stall and handed it to a few little girls. After receiving the snacks, these girls prepared The one who knelt down and kowtowed was stopped by Su Tiancheng.

The whole province of Shanxi was hit by a disaster. I don't know how many such little girls there are. Su Tiancheng can't save them, and it's impossible for him to do such a thing. What is his status? He is just a student. He has done some things. If it doesn't conform to one's own identity, it will cause disaster instead.

Su Ertong followed behind him all the time, and found that his young master didn't seem to have any interest in the excitement of the temple fair, so he couldn't help but feel a little frustrated. Could it be that the young master was just about to come and see, and was about to leave.

"Er Tong, you go to watch the excitement, don't follow me, let's go back in Shenshi."

"Master, the young one can't do this. When I came out, my father said that the young one will always follow the young master."

"The general's foreign military orders are not accepted. We have all come out. Of course, we must play with all our heart. Okay, don't follow me, go play by yourself, remember that Shen Shi is waiting at the gate of the Town God's Temple, and that's it."

It was not yet noon, so Su Ertong was long enough to watch the excitement.

After Su Tiancheng said that, Su Ertong was of course happy, and ran towards the lively place in a hurry.

Su Tiancheng didn't walk towards a lively place, he chose a quieter place. When he was resting, he had to think about problems, so he couldn't relax too much.

There was a group of people not far away, and some laughter came over.

"This chick looks pretty good, follow my brother, I promise you will be popular and spicy..."

"Follow you. It's just your ruined temple. I'm afraid I don't have anything to eat, so I'd better follow me. I'll keep something to eat. My brother won't lie to you..."

"Stop arguing, just follow me..."

Hearing these laughter, Su Tiancheng immediately understood that there must be a case of prostitution.

Think about the tenants of your own family. If it wasn't for the relief, they would definitely have to sell their sons and daughters. If there is no food to eat, what else can they think of.

He sighed and turned to leave.

"Oh, you brat, if you dare to do this with the master, you will die..."

There were waves of cursing and shouting, apparently from those who were laughing earlier.

Su Tiancheng felt a little strange, and couldn't help walking towards the crowd, he wanted to see what happened.

Before they got close, a few rogue-looking people stumbled out, cursing while running, telling that bastard to wait, it seemed that these rogues were obviously at a disadvantage.

Su Tiancheng suddenly became interested. How could such a situation happen? Could it be that someone is complaining.

Maybe it was because he was wearing a brocade robe, and his attire was very impressive. The people around saw him and avoided him.

An unforgettable scene appeared before his eyes.

A strong man with bloodshot eyes on his mouth and several bruises on his face. He looked like he had fought with someone, and this happened. The eyes of the strong man revealed wolf-like eyes, which seemed to be Sue the world.

In the open space in the middle, there is a girl kneeling. The girl is not very old, maybe fourteen or fifteen years old. She looks really good, but she has a disheveled face. Needless to say, she knows what is going on, probably because she saw what happened just now. Fighting, the body is still shaking.She was already wearing thin clothes, which made her look even more pitiful.

On the girl's head, there is a straw mark, which is a sign of prostitution.

In front of the girl, there was a piece of card with big characters written on it that said she would sell her body to bury her father.

Seeing Poppi go, the strong man walked up to the girl and tore off the straw mark from the girl's head.

"Sister, let's go back, we won't come here if we starve to death."

There were already tears in the girl's eyes. Hearing what the strong man said, she finally couldn't help it and cried out loud.

Outside the crowd, the noise came out again, and several yamen servants rushed into the crowd with sticks in their hands.

"Get out of the way, the government is handling the case, who made trouble here just now..."

These people, wearing official uniforms, looked fierce, as if they really represented the government.

Su Tiancheng knew that these people were the arresters with the lowest status in the yamen.

Most of these arresters are gangsters in the city. They have no future and are poor. When they go to the yamen to make a living, they don't need to think about the future at all, let alone their children.

Not to mention big families, ordinary people, and their children are not allowed to serve as arresters.

The strong man unconsciously protected the girl. He probably knew that there would be no good end to go against the government.

A catcher stepped forward and saw the cards, his eyes lit up immediately.

"Bold, dare to slander the imperial court in broad daylight."

The people around fell silent. They looked at the strong man and the girl with sympathy and pity. No one knew that these captors and rogues were in collusion with each other. The burly man taught him a lesson. Those rogues must be I found a prisoner nearby. It seems that the strong man and the girl are going to suffer.

At this moment, Su Tiancheng had a strong interest in the strong man, he already felt that this strong man was different from ordinary people.

Never letting the guards take away the strong man and the girl, he walked to the open space in the middle.

Several arresters were already preparing to take down the strong man and the girl. When they saw Su Tiancheng coming in, they instinctively prepared to scold them, but after seeing clearly, they dared not act recklessly.

"Why do you lock people up and take them to the government?"

Su Tiancheng's voice was not loud, but it was full of the temperament of a superior.

Since the arresters are doing things in the yamen, they still have eyes, who can bully at will and who can't offend, this is their basic common sense, otherwise don't think about messing around in the yamen.

"Young Master, I have no choice but to wait for the government to handle the case. Please forgive me, Young Master."

The catcher was very polite, but Su Tiancheng was not.

"Hehe, okay, I have seen what happened just now, then, I will go to the Yamen with a few arresters to see what you say about people slandering the court."

A catcher was a little unconvinced.

"Dare to ask your lord's name."

"I'm Su Tiancheng, a student from Pingyang Prefecture. Remember, we're going to the government office now."

The arresters gasped. They had heard too much about Su Tiancheng's name during this period of time. Even the magistrate, they all praised him. Moreover, Liu Dahua, the bureaucrat and bureaucrat, specially hosted a banquet. His identity It's not ordinary, besides, Su Tiancheng is a student of the magistrate, if he really went to the Yamen with a few of his people, it goes without saying what the consequences will be.

"It turned out to be Mr. Su. I don't know what's good or bad. I don't know that these two are Mr. Su. If I offend you, I offend you. I will leave now and disturb Mr. Su. Don't be angry, Mr. Su, let alone mind, I don't know." Those who are not guilty."

Su Tiancheng nodded slightly, and the arresters left quickly.
