Demon branches and jade leaves

Chapter 237 Benefactor
Before Jiang Louyue could answer, she saw a long and thick wooden stake on the right side of the fourth floor of Liuxianfang, which was unstable and smashed directly down, just in the direction of the three artisans. past.

This is a heavy construction site, and there are falling trees, which is normal.

Normal people, if they are hit by such a long and thick heavy wooden stake, even if they don't die, they will lose half their lives.

"Ahhhh-"

The onlookers watching the performances immediately screamed and ran away in fright.

At this moment, the strong and burly Khan in his 40s jumped up, struck out with a punch, and hit the center of the stake heavily.

There was a loud "bang", the stake shattered into countless pieces, and the sawdust flew around.

There were also the pair of teenagers and young girls in the surrounding audience. Except for some sawdust, no one was injured.

"it is good!"

I don't know who was the first to shout, and the applause and cheers dispersed one after another.

"Good punch."

Even Di Jiuchen watched from the upper floor and couldn't help but praise him.

The corners of Jiang Louyue's lips twitched into a small smile, and said, "Your skills are indeed very good. It's really a pity to perform on this street."

"Folks, if you have money, you will be rewarded with a money field, but you will not be rewarded with a personal field."

After the performance, the burly man and the handsome little girl took out two trays, walked to the audience, and began to ask for money.

When the audience saw that they asked for money, they fled away embarrassedly.

After a while, the audience was almost gone one after another, and there were only a few young masters who had a little spare money left and gave them a few coins.

Disappointment flashed across the faces of the three buskers, and they all bowed their heads and sighed.

Jiang Louyue stretched out a hand, grabbed Di Jiuchen's sleeve, and said, "Senior brother, let's go down and have a look."

"Okay." Di Jiuchen did not refuse, a pair of extremely beautiful peach blossom eyes flashed a gentle emotion, "Lou Yue, did you like those three people?"

"I just feel that they are performing arts on this street and earning those few copper coins. It is really aggrieved for their kung fu."

After a while, Jiang Louyue took Di Jiuchen to the downstairs of Liuxianfang.

When I walked in, I happened to hear the conversation between the father and daughter buskers.

"Father, there are only ten copper coins today, three less than yesterday."

"Hey, Xiaodie, don't be discouraged, we'll perform another show later."

"Father, I have a hunch that I'm going to sleep in the City God Temple again today."

That very delicate-looking little girl pouted her mouth slightly, with a look of frustration, "I'm so hungry..."

Jiang Louyue frowned slightly.

Sleeping City God Temple?

Isn't a place like the City God Temple a gathering place for beggars and lunatics?

These three people all know martial arts and should not be reduced to this state.

Jiang Louyue stepped forward, took out a 1 taels of gold ticket from the interspatial ring, and put it in the reward tray held by the frustrated little girl who was about to cry.

Shen Zidie was stunned, and looked in disbelief at the 1 tael gold note on the tray.

"Gu... girl?"

She raised her head and looked at Jiang Louyue with a frightened expression.

"I'm the owner of this Liuxianfang. I won't be here in the future. It's too dangerous, and there will inevitably be wooden stakes falling down."

Jiang Louyue gave the surprised little girl a reassuring smile, "Based on your abilities, you shouldn't be performing arts here, take this money and do a small business."

1 taels of gold ticket is enough for ordinary people to live comfortably for two lifetimes!

"This benefactor!"

The little girl's burly father came over, looked at Jiang Louyue gratefully, clasped his fists with both hands, and the strong and sturdy man had tears in his eyes, "Our family escaped from Luoyang here, thank you my lord. aid!"

"Luo Yang?"

Jiang Louyue raised her eyebrows slightly, "Is that the Luo Yang who caused the natural disaster?"

"Return to the benefactor, yes!" The big sweat spoke with a straight face, and at first glance he was a very serious person.

"Luoyang had a natural disaster, didn't the imperial court allocate funds for disaster relief? I see why such a large number of refugees poured into this imperial capital?" Jiang Louyue asked the question in his heart.

"Hey--"

When it comes to the matter of his hometown, this old Shen's face is full of pain.

"The benefactor did not know that the disaster relief in Luoyang was under the supervision of the crown prince. But our people in Luoyang did not receive even a copper coin for disaster relief, all of which were stolen by those corrupt officials."

"what?"

Di Jiuchen was originally not interested, but when he heard what Father Shen said, he immediately looked over and frowned slightly.

"Our Shenjia Village is a branch of the Zhongzhou heritage in the past. Many people in the village know martial arts. They are very dissatisfied with the behavior of the local corrupt officials embezzling disaster relief funds. They jointly signed a letter and petitioned the local officials. The master is really unreasonable. He even said that our Shenjia Village is a bandit village. It disobeyed the control of the Dagan Dynasty and wanted to rebel. Then he immediately sent troops to slaughter the entire village. Except for me and my daughter Xiaodie, no one was alive. All were killed."

Speaking of sadness, Father Shen burst into tears.

Jiang Louyue was shocked when she heard this: "This is too cruel."

Slaughtered an entire village, just because the villagers asked for disaster relief silver and disaster relief materials?
"Shenjia Village is too miserable. I took my daughter and fled all the way to the imperial capital, just to hit Ziyang Zhong and sue the imperial court! Avenge and avenge the entire village!"

Having said this, Father Shen stretched out a hand, wiped the tears from the corner of his eyes, his voice was a little choked, and said, "But the reality is too cruel, I can't even feed my own daughter and my godson's stomach, and I take it again. What to sue the imperial court?"

Jiang Louyue's heart turned violently.

Natural disasters and man-made disasters, first natural disasters, then man-made disasters.

The Luoyang natural disaster was supervised by the crown prince, Emperor Yin.The matter of the officers and soldiers slaughtering the village should have been approved by Emperor Yin.

Jiang Louyue felt extremely chilled.

How can such a person who is so careless about his life become a generation of Mingjun?
If the pavilion master was the crown prince, Di Yin, then she would not be too surprised that someone as shady as him would do such a thing.

"If the three of you are really homeless, go to the house and live there."

At this moment, Di Jiuchen suddenly said, "My manor is just short of a few people. If you don't mind, come help."

Jiang Louyue was a little surprised, she turned her head and looked at her senior brother with a questioning look.

Di Jiuchen's black eyes dimmed slightly, and the corners of his lips evoked a very cold arc: "The enemy of the enemy is our friend."

Jiang Louyue suddenly realized.

Emperor Jiuchen wanted to keep these three people so that he could deal with the prince, Emperor Yin, in the future.

"The benefactor is willing to take us in?"
