Chapter 259

Leng Qingyan's heart suddenly cooled from the bottom of her feet. It turned out that it was because of the disappearance of imperial concubine Hui! What are you hoping for! The Emperor may have forgotten himself! After all, it's been three months, isn't it?

"I heard that the emperor sent many people to find the whereabouts of King Wu not long ago. He still wanted to find King Wu. As for the claim of forcibly occupying his brother's wife, you are not the parties. How can you know that they are not Lang Youqing's concubine?" Leng Qingyan explained to the emperor again.

"Little madam, it's like you're a party. If the dog emperor dares to do it, no one is allowed to say it. Dongjiang is no better than the capital. Our speech here is free, and Tiangao emperor is far from being controlled." the diner said with a deep look, Leng Qingyan turned and went back to his table.

The other two diners also went back. The man didn't know where to go for a long time. Finally, no one told Leng Qingyan where the bandits came from.

Leng Qingyan put down his chopsticks and went to the window. Looking at the bustling street below, he was a little melancholy for a moment. He stared at the man riding on the horse. It was clearly Bai zhantang's face, but his character was very different. Did he see it wrong? No!

As like as two peas, the face was as like as two peas, and the same as the same size.

"Master, the bandit leader looks like Bai childe!" Shua Erlang also looked at the man on the horse. He felt very similar yesterday and even more so today.

"Do you feel like it too?" Leng Qingyan Shu looked back at Shua Erlang. He didn't feel like it, that's really right.

Luke had never seen Bai zhantang, so he didn't react much. He just looked at the figure on the horse with hatred.

"Let's go down and have a look!" Leng Qingyan said to them.

"Master, the bandits are ferocious. We'd better not go down." Huilin took Leng Qingyan's hand and said.

"Huilin, you've been with me for so long. How dare you still be so timid." Leng Qingyan glanced at Huilin and walked downstairs.

Out of the restaurant, I saw a bandit robbing an old man's burden. The old man lay on the ground and was cut in several places by the bandit and refused to let go of the burden. Finally, the bandit lost his patience and the knife in his hand directly pierced the old man's heart. The old man's hand still didn't let go of the burden, and tears fell from his eyes when he was dying.

The bandit killed the old man and opened the bag. He saw that there were only three copper coins in it except a few pills. Leng Qingyan's anger was about to rush out. He was pulled by juggling Erlang. Juggling Erlang also looked angry, but he was used to it. He said to Leng Qingyan, "master, even if you go out, you can't save the old man. Finally, you will be in danger."

Leng Qingyan sighed and said, "go and find out where the old man's home is. When the bandits leave, let's go and have a look." the hand in his sleeve clenched into a fist, and Leng Qingyan looked at the red figure on the distant horse team.

"The little lady is really kind-hearted. This old man is old man Zhang from the East slum. He has an old mother who is always ill in bed. His wife died and left a child who is only eight years old. These bandits are really doing evil!" the man said from nowhere.

Leng Qingyan was startled, patted his chest, turned to look at the man and asked, "do you know how to get to the slum?"

"Little, take you!" said the man.

The poor kilns are as poor as this name. They are dirty everywhere, the houses are dilapidated, and the people wear patched old coats.

Walking into old man Zhang's house, a child was squatting in the yard playing with mud. When he saw someone coming, he hurried to the house.

"What's the matter, dog?" the old woman lying on the bed touched her little grandson's head and asked.

"Grandma, there are a lot of people outside. The dog buried his face on the old woman and whispered.

Listening to the messy footsteps, the old woman was vaguely worried that the collector would not come again. She gently touched the dog's head and comforted, "no, your father will be back soon."

"Grandma, they're coming in!" the dog shrank again on the old woman, shaking gently.

Leng Qingyan came into the room and looked. The child named Gouzi's eyes fell on the old woman. The old woman was covered with an old quilt and her face was a little white. When Leng Qingyan looked at her, she also looked at Leng Qingyan.

"The old man is well!" Leng Qingyan said politely to the old woman.

"Is this lady?" the old woman saw Leng Qingyan was very polite, so she changed her smiling face and looked at her. She should not have come to collect debts.

"I'm the wife of the family where the old man's son works. There are distinguished guests at home. Your son can't leave, so he entrusted me to deliver the medicine." Leng Qingyan motioned Huilin to take out the burden.

The old woman was almost convinced. I saw the bag staring at Leng Qingyan fiercely. Her eyes were full of vigilance, and her voice trembled and asked, "who are you? My son's bag never leaves. What did you do to him... Wuwuwuwuwuwu"

"I'm the lady of that family!" Leng Qingyan frowned and continued to lie.

"You... You..." the old woman fainted without breathing.

"Grandma! Wuwuwuwu, grandma... The dog lay on the old woman and cried for a long time. He raised his red eyes and looked at Leng Qingyan angrily:" you killed my father, and you will kill my grandmother again. You say bad people, bad people... Wuwuwuwu "

Leng Qingyan was scolded by a child as a bad person for the first time. She frowned gently and turned to tell Huilin to decoct the medicine. Huilin promised to go down to decoct the medicine.

"Call him Gouzi! In fact, we don't know your father. Your father was killed by bandits. I'm afraid your grandmother lied because she couldn't accept it. Your father tried his best to protect the medicine in the bag. I guess there must be a patient in his family who asked the waiter in the store to bring me here." Leng Qingyan explained to Gouzi.

When the dog heard the speech, he cried fiercely, kowtowed to Leng Qingyan and said, "thank you, you are a good man!"

Huilin fried the medicine and fed it to the old woman. The old woman woke up. She was still very excited. She scolded, "you killed my son, my old woman won't live, i... I'll fight with you." the old man was crying and was about to get up. The dog quickly stopped her and said, "grandma, you wronged them. They are good people, and my father was killed by bandits."

My son was killed by bandits! The old woman's eyes were dull. After a long time, she looked up at Leng Qingyan and said, "you're a good man. I... wuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwu"

Leng Qingyan looked at the old woman and said, "I'm from the imperial envoy just sent by the court. Don't thank me. If you want to thank the court, thank the court! This is 50 Liang silver, which can be regarded as the compensation given to you by the court."

Leng Qingyan stopped and left the slum with his own people.

When he returned to the yamen, it was already dark. Leng Qingyan used a bowl of white porridge and lay down to rest.
