"To appear before a man is to pretend to be ...... What does it mean to pretend to be forced?"

Su Jinpa was quite amused, but still felt that these two words were not good words.

It's just that with such a play, the atmosphere between the two is much more natural, and there is less rustiness.

Talking, the two gradually left the bustling area of the capital.

Especially after leaving the city, the devastated scene made Su Jinpa feel related, and Li Chen's words didn't know when to stop.

Without saying a word, the two took advantage of the fact that the snow was falling a little less at this moment and rushed to Tongzhou.

"It's only twenty or thirty miles from the capital to Tongzhou, and if it's a large-scale disaster relief, you should be able to see some scenes not far ahead. Su Jinpa found a topic and said.

Li Chen nodded and said, "I hope these people still have a little conscience."

Su Jinpa knew what Li Chen meant.

If disasters are rampant today, and the treasury of the imperial court is empty, whether it is the people or the officials, in fact, life is not easy.

However, officials have a natural advantage, and if they want to be greedy, then the materials and food used for disaster relief are the best to start.

Su Jinpa could only pray that nothing would happen today.

The two of them quickly stepped up, and the surrounding victims gradually increased.

In just a quarter of an hour, Li Chen and Su Jinpa saw a long queue forming outside a town in the distance.

There were about 1,000 people queuing up at the scene, and at the end of the line, there were several porridge shacks.

Looking at the officers and soldiers around him who maintained order, Su Jinpa said: "The order is okay, it seems that they are also attentive." "

Dismount and go ahead." The

two of them got off their horses and walked along the procession towards the location of the porridge shed.

He didn't go far before Li Chen heard an old woman at the forefront of the line say weakly: "Uncle, okay, give me more, my daughter-in-law is too sick to walk, and she has a child in her belly, which is the only seed in our family, give some more...... Half a scoop will do. I

saw the official in charge of serving the porridge and scolded: "Old immortal thing, His Royal Highness the Nine Emperor Princes is willing to give alms is already a great favor, and he dares to be too little, if you

have more than half a spoon, he has more than half a spoon, and everyone has more than half a spoon, how can I be bad?"

"Love or not, take the porridge and get away!".

The old woman hesitated to leave, still begging and pleading, but before she could speak, the official who spoke took a large spoon of porridge and knocked on the door of her head.

When she arrived, the old woman fell down screaming, and her head was bleeding.

After speaking, the official scooped the big spoon that was still stained with the old woman's hair and blood into the pot, and scolded and said, "Next!"

The broken bowl in the old woman's hand was smashed, and the porridge like boiled water was spilled, and she couldn't even care about the wound on her forehead, desperately picked up the broken bowl, looked at the thin water with a shallow bottom left, and cried out: "God, why did you do this to me! I just want to order porridge for my daughter-in-law and unborn grandson!" The

surrounding victims were numb, as if they had long been Xi to this.

The next victim pushed him away and took the bowl to get the porridge.

It's just that before the big spoon could pour half of the bowl of porridge water into the bowl that was so clear that it could almost be used as a mirror, it was snatched by Li Chen.

"You, who are you!?" The

official who was robbed of the big spoon was about to get angry subconsciously, and it could be seen that Li Chen was extraordinary and well-dressed, obviously it was impossible to be a disaster victim, and his tone suddenly weakened a lot.

Li Chen ignored him, and stirred in the wooden barrel with a spoon, but saw that only some sparse rice flowers floated up at the bottom, and more than rice flowers, there were some jet-black mud and stones.

Li Chen's tone was cold, and he said coldly: "The porridge that this dog doesn't drink is the so-called benevolence and righteousness of the Nine Emperor Princes!?".
