Chapter 49 Difficulties
One of the officials even walked up to the fainted man on the ground, and kicked him: "What are you pretending to do? Get up quickly! What's wrong with letting you touch Ci, even touch Ci Zuoqiu's family's carriage?"

However, the man on the ground did not wake up.

He was wearing worn-out cloth shoes with blood stains still seeping out of them.

And at this moment, suddenly an old woman with gray hair and dirty and equally sparse and dilapidated rushed over from the crowd.Leaning on crutches, she knelt in front of the man on the ground with tears in her eyes, and held a bowl of water from begging in her other hand: "Son, wake up!"

"Where did the crazy woman come from?" The officer looked at the scene with extreme disgust.

But the old woman peeled off the hair of the fainted man on the ground with her old hands, and carefully tasted the water near his mouth, but the water flowed directly to the ground along his mouth.

The old woman burst into tears. Then she looked up at the officials and said excitedly: "Please save my son! We are not beggars, we are just refugees from Yuzhou. We want to sue Beijing. We The people of Yuzhou were wronged..."

She cried and asked the sky, her voice hoarse.

Everyone saw that her lips were so chapped that they could already see blood red.

But the water that was brought was given to his son immediately.

However, when the officer in the lead heard the word Yu Zhou, his expression immediately changed.He immediately scolded: "What are you talking about, you crazy woman? As we all know, there is a drought in Yuzhou, and Your Majesty has already allocated relief materials and money. Where will there be any victims? During this sacrificial ceremony, you are spreading rumors here?" Your Majesty governs the country and makes the Dongwu Kingdom peaceful and safe. Do you know that your current act of disturbing the people's hearts and cholera sacrificial ceremony is a capital offense?"

"That's right, Yuzhou is thousands of kilometers away from here. You said you guys came here on foot? It's really ridiculous. I think you want to make excuses for your son who is cheating? Don't think that just because he pretends to be fainted, he can disturb the Zuoqiu family. The crime of framing."

The officer's contemptuous eyes fell on the old woman.

The leader has already issued an order: "Take away this crazy woman and this beggar..."

The old woman was so frightened that the bowl in her hand fell to the ground. Her skinny body was shivering, and she protected her fainted son. She said in a miserable voice: "I am not a crazy woman, my son, I am." We are not beggars. We have no money, and we begged all the way to the capital. The old woman’s legs were not strong on the way, so my son carried my old woman on his back all the way to the capital. I finally couldn’t hold on anymore, so I asked him to rest on the street to beg for a drink of water. If we didn't touch porcelain, we are not guilty!"

But at this time, although the people nearby couldn't bear to see it, I don't know which side is true and which side is false?No one dared to offend this yamen and the Zuoqiu family.

Zuo Qiulan in the carriage heard what happened outside, and couldn't help sneering: "This crazy old woman has a lot of scenes, and she knows how to play hard tricks even if she gets cheated."

"Probably because I didn't know that my father and the government in the capital also had some intersections! In the early years, my father also accumulated a lot of contacts in the capital. Although our main family is not in the capital, it doesn't mean that we can't talk much in the capital." Zuoqiu Shan opened her mouth lightly, her eyes as cold and arrogant as ever.

When Zuo Qiulan heard this, his expression suddenly flashed with joy.

She is naturally proud that she is a woman from the Zuoqiu family.

Pearl also looked at Zi Sangqing anxiously: "Miss, what do you think of the previous matter?"

"It's just two beggars, and their identities are not in the same class as us. Not to mention that the lives of ordinary people are like ants, and the lives of this kind of beggars are even lighter. So why care about the truth? As long as it doesn't affect We'll be fine." Zi Sangqing said softly and indifferently.

She just needs to protect herself. How can she have the energy to care about others?
Pearl nodded understandingly, and said, "It's true."

Fei Yue from behind looked at this scene with frowned eyebrows, and pursed her lips.

The number one subordinate was a little unbearable: "Master Yue, this old woman is so pitiful, don't we need to take action to take care of her?"

The No. [-] subordinate was also indignant: "Yes, the soles of that man's shoes have been worn out, and there are also long-term wounds on the soles of his feet. It can be seen that he has been hiking for at least half a month. These people are really telling lies..."

Feiyue sighed slightly: "We can't get involved in government affairs. Besides, our purpose is to follow Zuo Qiu Yao. If we cause other troubles along the way and delay the business, how can we explain it to you? Besides, this matter seems simple, but it is complicated. The matter is not trivial and cannot be easily managed."

Yu Zhou, it seems that things are not that simple!

Zuo Qiuyao and Lanzhi had just walked half a street when they heard that cry not far away...

"We really didn't mean to wrong that lord. Please save my son first. If you must go to jail, I will go to the old woman. Please, my son really passed out."

Lanzhi looked at the street in front of her with more and more onlookers in confusion, and couldn't help but wonder: "Miss, what happened there?"

Zuo Qiuyao also held three bunches of candied haws and a bowl of bean curd in his hand.

Just as he swallowed the candied haws stuffed in his mouth, some words of common people's comments were collected in his ears.

Zuoqiu family's team?
"What a coincidence." Zuo Qiuyao retracted his gaze from the passers-by who were gossiping and watching the show.

Lanzhi held a lot of packaged cakes and snacks in her hands, and looked at her lady curiously: "Qiao? What do you mean, lady?"

"Let's go and have a look." Although Zuo Qiuyao didn't like to watch the excitement, she didn't know what happened?But it sounds like someone is being grievanced, and it's about the Zuoqiu family, so that's different.

No, as soon as they arrived in front of the crowd of onlookers, they looked at the huge and gorgeous motorcade.

The guards around the motorcade were all riding on tall horses, with cold eyes and arrogance.The clothes they were wearing and the special double sword symbol on their right arm were not the symbol of the Zuoqiu family?

In front of the convoy, several officials were dragging a young man who had obviously passed out.And the one who was crying was an old woman who seemed to be over seventy years old. At this time, her withered hands were tightly clutching the hem of the official's clothes, and she said in a trembling voice: "We are really refugees from Yuzhou. Porcelain, he really passed out. I beg the official, save my son!"

In a few words, Zuo Qiuyao got the general idea.

Her eyes darkened slightly, Yu Zhou?

Then he stuffed the candied haws in his hand into Lanzhi's arms next to him.

"Miss?" Lanzhi hadn't realized what exactly happened in front of her?Shen Cheng was still shocked to meet someone from the Zuoqiu family when he came to the capital.I saw my young lady actually pushed through the crowd and walked out.
