I, the queen and the father, start with a deer as a horse

time flies.

Soon, the carriage moved slowly.

Gradually, the little empress seemed to be relieved, looked at Fang Xiu, and asked:

"Why can't I see such a beggar in Chang'an City? I know that Chang'an must not be richer, right?"

Fang Xiu was silent for a while, and replied: "The police in Chang'an Mansion will regularly drive away beggars and drive them to other places."

The little empress asked: "Why is this so? I just don't want me to see it?"

Fang Xiu was silent for a long time, before he said: "My gentlemen are kind-hearted, and don't see the suffering of the people..."

As soon as this word comes out.

The little empress fell silent again.

a long time.

She seemed to have figured something out, and pressed her little head against Fang Xiu's chest, as if she felt that she would feel more at ease this way.

With slightly parted lips, he said slowly:

"Tell me, how can the world be unified..."

Chapter 156 The Angry Little Empress

After finishing speaking, the little empress felt that this question was too naive, she laughed lightly like self-deprecating, and said to herself:

"I'm so stupid, I can ask such an inexplicable question."

"Great harmony in the world... Even if there are gods in the world, it won't be possible."

Fang Xiu was noncommittal.

The little empress suddenly raised her eyes, looked at Fang Xiu, and blinked her big watery eyes:

"Speaking of which, if I remember correctly, the imperial court should have set up Beitianyuan and Salesian Bureaus in various places to accommodate widows, widows and lonely people. If this is the case, why are there so many beggars? Where did the money allocated to them go? "

After a pause, it seemed that it was not appropriate to ask such a question, and added:

"I'm not questioning Fang Xiang... I'm still young, and Fang Xiang shields me from the wind and rain. It's impossible for me to do everything myself. I just want to know why..."

Fang Xiu really couldn't answer this question, because he didn't know.

He is not a god, he works hard, and he has to make up his mind on all important matters.

In addition, we must also think about how to plan the world, how to innovate technology, and how to rectify the administration of officials.

If Beitianyuan and Salesian Bureau want him to intervene, then he doesn't have to do anything.

then.

Fang Xiu told the truth: "I don't know either."

"However, I can accompany His Majesty to investigate."

The little empress said "hmm", looked at Lin Wan'er at the side, and ordered:

"Let the guards drive the carriage to the Salesian Bureau."

Lin Wan'er nodded and replied, "Yes, Your Majesty!"

The little empress withdrew her gaze, pressed her little head against Fang Xiu's chest, and slowly closed her eyes.

After a while, I fell into dreamland.

Fang Xiu hugged her and wanted to do something, but seeing the peaceful expression on the little empress's face, he restrained himself again.

The carriage moved on.

After an unknown amount of time, it slowly stopped.

The guard's voice came from outside the carriage.

"My lord, the Salesian Bureau of Anhua County is ahead!"

Heard the words "Salesia Bureau".

The little empress who was sleeping slowly opened her eyes, looked ahead in a daze, and asked, "Are you there?"

"Ah."

Fang Xiu responded with a hoarse voice.

The little empress noticed the change in Fang Xiu's voice, turned to look at him, and asked curiously, "What's wrong?"

Faint bloodshot eyes appeared in Fang Xiu's eyes. He looked at her with the eyes of a hunter looking at his prey, without saying a word.

The little empress didn't notice his eyes, felt a little uncomfortable, frowned, and twisted her body.

"Your dagger hit me."

Fang Xiu's eyes darkened, and he said in a deep voice, "I don't have the habit of carrying a dagger with me."

The little empress frowned slightly, and said angrily: "I feel it, and you still coax me..."

The voice fell.

She suddenly thought of what Shang Gong said to her a month ago.

"If a man is emotional, he will..."

The little empress realized something instantly, her pretty face flushed red, and she left Fang Xiu's embrace.

The voice trembled a little:

"Here, here we are..."

"get off......"

As he said that, he didn't dare to look into Fang Xiu's eyes, and got out of the carriage.

On the side, Lin Wan'er was curious why His Majesty's face turned so red all of a sudden, but she was too embarrassed to ask, so she kept the question in her heart and walked on.

Fang Xiu sat alone in the carriage, took a deep breath, calmed down, got up slowly, and got off the carriage.

sunset.

The fiery red sunset glowed half of the sky.

In Anhua County.

In front of a dilapidated courtyard.

Wu Mingkong, who was wearing a fox fur, felt a little dazed when he heard the laughter coming from inside.

"The Salesian Bureau does exist, and there are indeed children in it. If so, why are there so many beggars?"

With such doubts.

Wu Mingkong pushed open the gate of the courtyard and walked in.

Fang Xiu and Lin Wan'er followed closely behind.

Then there's the guard with the knife.

The space in the courtyard is not large, and there is only one jujube tree in it.

There are two water jars under the jujube tree, and there is water in the jars.

Together, front, back, left, and right, there are four huts in total, and the sound of children playing and playing is coming from the huts.

Fang Xiu winked at the guard.

The guard immediately understood and pushed open the door of the hut.

The sound of playing and playing stopped abruptly.

Fang Xiu and Wu Mingkong looked at each other and walked into the room.

Entering the room, the first thing that catches the eye is a dozen immature and rough faces.

Immature means that they are very young, the oldest is only twelve or thirteen years old, and the youngest is only seven or eight years old.

Rough means their faces are pitted and covered with chilblains.

Look around for a week.

will be able to see.

The house is small and simply decorated.

There was only one bed with a quilt.

A crude stove.

A wooden table.

A wooden chair.

There are also a dozen porcelain bowls.

Other than that, nothing!

It is no different from the ruined temple where beggars live.

"You, who are you?"

At this time, an older boy stood up and looked at Fang Xiu with a frightened expression and a trembling voice.

Fang Xiu looked at him and said in as gentle a tone as possible: "Don't be afraid, uncle is a businessman from Chang'an. He passed by here and wanted to see the children from the Salesian Bureau..."

"Sword Comes"

After a pause, he asked, "Is this the Salesian Bureau?"

The little boy was silent for a moment, then replied, "Yes."

Fang Xiu asked again: "Who is in charge here on weekdays?"

The little boy fell silent and did not answer for a long time.

Fang Xiu thought for a while and gave the guard a wink.

The guard immediately understood, took out a piece of mustache from his arms, and handed it to the little boy.

Wu Mingkong noticed it keenly.

The moment the guard took out the mustache.

The eyes of the children around were all bright, looking at the food and swallowing.

Little boys are no exception.

But, although his eyes were full of longing for food, he still didn't reach for it.

He just swallowed his saliva and didn't speak.

Seeing this, Wu Mingkong said: "We have no malicious intentions, but just want to know if there is someone who takes care of you...or if someone gives you food and clothing."

The voice fell.

A little girl timidly said: "How many uncles..."

As soon as she opened her mouth, the little boy glared at her and scolded, "Don't say it!"

The little girl lowered her head hastily, not daring to say any more.

Wu Mingkong and Fang Xiu looked at each other, and they could see the surprise in each other's eyes.

It seems that there are actually people in charge of the Salesian Home.

It's just that these children are very wary of outsiders and dare not speak.

see this scene.

Wu Mingkong showed thought, thinking about how to make these children let go of their guard.

Just now.

Another little girl seemed to recognize the guards, and said excitedly: "I know them! They gave us a lot of food today!"

As soon as this word comes out.

Both Fang Xiu and Wu Mingkong were taken aback.
