Hypocrites

The dog feeder walked away, and Shen Yu and Liang Heng slipped into the kennel.

The kennel is three feet square, and every inch of the air is filled with the smell of meat and dog show.Looking around, the group of dogs is like blankets covered with kennels. The thin backs of the wood are crowded and rubbed, and the bony spurs stand up, which is a symbol of the ferocity of the hounds.

"My God..." Liang Heng was speechless, and shrank behind Shen Yu.

Smelling the scent of strangers, the hyena raised its head, and a dull warning sound rolled from its throat.

Shen Yu originally thought that there were at most ten or so dogs, but now there are nearly a hundred dogs in the enclosure, he couldn't help being shocked.Thinking of these hundreds of fierce dogs patrolling the streets, what a spectacular scene it must be. However, Niu Lu has kept hyenas for a long time, but there are few rumors in Wangdu City. It turns out that he took the dogs...

Dongluli.

Even Deng Yang, who knew everything about Wangcheng, would have difficulty remembering which horn it was when he suddenly heard this place name.

The west is developed, the south is prominent, the north is poor, and the east is humble.

Dongluli is hidden in a dark alley close to the shade of Nanluli, which was called a dark street at the time. Shen Yu came here for the first time last night, and the damp and moldy air pushed him straight out of this inappropriate entrance.

The people living in the east are all the invisible rats in the royal city. Their eyes in the daytime make them fly away like ashes, and they are wiped out like smoke when they are exposed to others.The dog bit the mouse and had nothing to say.

After visiting Niu Lu's kennel, Shen Yu shook Liang Heng's hand: "Let's go."

Liang Heng didn't move: "Shen Shen...!!"

Shen Yu looked down - Liang Heng's sleeve was bitten by a dog in the fence, the canine teeth were white and sharp, they hooked on the cloth interlacedly, soaking a large area with the smelly halazi.The expressions of the two changed immediately.

Liang Heng pulled it a few times, but he couldn't pull it off at all. His Highness the Crown Prince was wearing some good material, even a dog couldn't bite through it, and a person couldn't tear it to pieces.Instead, the hyena was pulled by him, hit his head against the railing, and let out more and more dangerous barks.Liang Heng began to tremble as soon as he grabbed Shen Yu's hand.

"If you bite me, Niu Lu will be finished." Liang Heng made a joke in the desperate situation.A group of dogs gathered around, the scrawny hounds, with strong limbs, making vigorous jumping movements.

"Run!" Shen Yu made a decisive decision, drew his sword and cut off half of his sleeve, dragged Liang Heng away, and the hounds jumped out of the fence one after another behind them.

The back yard is barking non stop, dog owners will definitely check it out.

Liang Heng ran fast, circling east and west, and the pack of dogs chased after him like kites held by him.

"Where are you going, Shen Yu!"

"Don't shout!" Shen Yu couldn't help turning up the volume, "How do I know where you're going! The locust tree at the door of the kennel is behind the alleyway, and now I don't even know the way!"

"Ah!" Liang Heng was out of breath after being chased, "Why didn't you say it earlier!"

The hound ran very fast, chasing after Liang Heng's butt like an arrow from the string, the dog's teeth were sharper than a dagger, and it was bitten.

Shen Yu grabbed Liang Heng's shoulder and ran for his life with all his energy.

"This side, this side!" Liang Heng panted, "I remember this side is next to the wall of Chidao Street!"

Fortunately, he had been to Niuyuan before, and his memory was really good.

Shen Yu lifted his half body weight: "Why are you still out of breath?!"

Liang Heng shouted: "I'm scared!"

The servants of Niuyuan were finally alarmed, and they heard voices coming from all around the corridor.

"Dog! Dog!"

"Why did the dog run out!"

The dog breeders were also afraid of dogs, and panicked for a while, no one dared to go forward, the dogs chasing Liang Heng and Shen Yu temporarily changed their appetites, and turned to chase the servants holding the food boxes, and the garden was in chaos.

After Shen Yu and Liang Heng fled to the bushes to cover them, Liang Heng stepped on Shen Yu's shoulders and climbed up the wall. The hyena followed the scent, barked all the way and rushed into the bushes, grabbing Shen Yu's robe.

"Fuck you!" Shen Yufei kicked the dog, causing the dog to somersault and whimper.

The next moment Shen Yu turned over and jumped up to the top of the wall, picked up Liang Heng, and landed on Chidao Street.

Next to the cattle garden, a bullock cart was parked. The driver was wearing a bamboo hat. Shen Yu glanced at it and found it very familiar, a bit like his own parent worker.Sure enough, Song Jun's face protruded from the curtain of the car: "There's no time to explain! Get in the car!"

In the cattle garden, the dogs barked all over the sky, separated by a wall, and the ox carts leisurely drove away from the road.

A few days later, Huo Liang, Nanqi Tingwei, received a letter of impeachment regarding Shi Brown's Wailang Niu Lu, who raised vicious dogs and let the dogs play fierce and hurt people.

There were more than ten wounded, each with their first name and last name, and told about the crime of vicious dogs.

Usually this kind of thing, there is no need for Tingwei to come forward.Usually no one dares to sue Niu Lu.

However, this letter of impeachment was none other than Chugong Shangchen, and the court lieutenant had to treat it strictly.Niu Yuan is extravagant and promiscuous, and things often happen when the owner takes advantage of his pleasure to hurt others. Ting Wei has also heard about it. After all, he is Niu Lu's own servant, and the law enforcement officer has no right to intervene. Common people, even though they come from humble backgrounds, are not tolerated by the law.

In the end, Wei Huo Ting personally went to Niuyuan, inspected the hundreds of vicious dogs in the kennel, and made a verdict—execution by poisoning.

After this incident, the Chu Palace lecture day.

Lian Zhen admired Liang Heng quite a bit, and said to him: "My father praised you a lot, saying that the prince finally did something serious."

Except for his own son, Lian Taiwei seldom praised others, and he often spoke out to the emperor. When he was young, he was often demoted because of his appearance. He was called Lian Tielang three times and three times.

It was Liang Heng's unexpected joy to be recognized by Lian Bi.Shen Yu first intervened in this matter, and finally the Chu Palace came forward to expose it, not only to rely on Liang Heng's weight, but also to protect Shen Yu.

The clan brothers were devastated, and Niu Shida was in the palace and hadn't moved yet.I don't know if it's a trivial matter that doesn't deserve his concern, or he has already made a note of it in his heart.

Only Duan Yanling couldn't tell if it was cloudy or sunny, and he wasn't happy for Liang Heng, so he said quietly: "In the future, I won't be able to visit Niuyuan as a guest."

"If you don't go, don't go, what's so rare." Liang Heng said.

"Yes." Lian Zhen agreed.

The two of them got together to write their homework silently, and Shen Jin came to check after a while.

Duan Yanling silently stared at the back of Liang Heng's head. After a while, he said to Shen Yu who was writing another book: "Counselor Shen, I thought you were a person who knew how to measure. Could it be that this is the situation you want?"

Shen Yuzheng was writing a copybook for Liang Heng. He picked up a pen and licked some ink, without raising his head, and replied to Duan Yanling's words: "If a dog hurts a person, it is only right and proper to be punished. Could it be that you have a different opinion?"

Duan Yanling sneered.

Shen Jin carried the teapot into the study, and everyone stopped talking.

Finding a fine weather, Shen Yu went to Dongluli again to visit the injured who went to Niuyuan to ask for compensation that day.When Liang Heng heard what he said, he was very concerned and asked to go with him.

The dark street at the entrance is completely different from the East and West Market on both sides, with dark and deep storefronts, dirty restaurants, shops with head tattoos, and funeral shops with coffin lids at the entrance.People from Dongluli will not appear in the East and West Market, and all their eating, drinking and messing will be settled in this dark street.

Who knew that behind the dark street was Nanluli, a large house where the nobles slept high.

The injured is a pottery craftsman, who has been a craftsman for generations, and his wife is a slave, and the wages of both of them are pitifully low.My husband was injured by a dog and was unable to work. With the patchwork of copper coins, I could afford the doctor but not the medicine.After procrastinating day after day, seeing that his legs were failing, he went to the cattle garden to try his luck, and Shen Yu happened to see him.

Ting Wei executed Niu Lu's dog and ordered him to pay for the medicine.Things got better in this family.

When Shen Yu and Liang Heng came to the door, the children of his family were squatting in the yard to pile up soil, digging out a hollow bag of soil with their dirty hands, the shape was exactly like the pottery kiln where his father was working.

"On June [-]st, there are always rewards," the child sang while piling up dirt, "four-legged beasts, stand tall. There are no thousands of households in two letters, and one ghost from ten miles will come to join..."

Liang Heng couldn't hear clearly: "What is he singing?"

It was also the first time for Shen Yu to hear it, and he didn't quite understand it for a while.

The husband and wife invited the guests into the hall.

Unable to light oil lamps, they poked holes in the thatched roof during the day to let in the light from the sky, and rebuilt the thatched roof at night to shelter from wind and rain.Live like this.

The husband's legs were able to go to the ground, and he washed two ceramic bowls that he usually used for eating, and poured water for the guests.However, Shen Yu couldn't see any cheerful expressions on their faces, as if they were exhausted from torture.

"I haven't thanked you enough yet," the husband limped and sat down, "I lost my leg if you didn't hire the doctor. I didn't expect you to remember me, and I came here again. A few days later, we will return to the hospital." It’s about to move, and you won’t be able to find it when you come, and the appearance of this place will change again.”

Shen Yu asked strangely: "Why do you want to move all of a sudden? Your feet are also inconvenient."

The husband said: "Master Niu's dog is dead, we have to go too."

Liang Heng heard what he meant, felt incredible, and was a little annoyed: "How can this be reasonable, why would he dare to come here to seek revenge?"

"That's not what it means," the husband explained, "This land is close to Nanlu, and the nobles are all vying for it. It was previously occupied by Mr. Niu to let the dog out. Now the dog is dead, and tomorrow there will be another adult. It's going to be requisitioned. Everyone has to move."

The two were at a loss for words.

Misfortunes happen one after another, and people trapped in the abyss cannot be rescued by a short helping hand from others.

"Who wants to use this land?" Shen Yu asked.

"I don't know," the husband said, "There are so many noble people..."

The wife interjected, "I heard from the co-workers that it's Mr. Yuan Yucheng of the Qiu Mansion. There are too many flowers at home, and the garden needs to be expanded."

Qiu Mansion, Qiu Qianli Mansion.He was in charge of taking care of gardens and plants for the royal family, and his own yard was also repaired gorgeously like a fairyland, and it became what Deng Yang said was a spring flower viewing spot in Wangcheng, and a thorny red fence.

The whole street was going to be demolished, Shen Yu really had nothing to say, he was unable to rebuild a home for these people to live and work in peace.Liang Heng might have, but not now.

The two came out of the leaky earthen wall room. The child had already built the pottery kiln and put the pottery at home: "Father! Mother! Look at the bowl I made!"

Parents were too tired to play games with him.

"Let's keep this little money for now." Liang Heng wanted to leave some money for the two of them, but they accepted it without much joy.

The child was ignored, so he scratched the dirt with a branch to play. Shen Yu lowered his head and saw him writing down the nursery rhyme he sang just now—"Liuyili..."

The handwriting is crooked, two of the five characters are missing, and only the simple "Liuyili" is arranged in sequence.

Shen Yu frowned, recognizing this ridiculous crossword puzzle.

"Which direction is the Qiu residence?" Shen Yu asked the wife and got an answer.

In the direction of the finger, peaches and plums bloom like clouds, just like the azure color covering the dark tile roof of the royal city.
