After feeding the exiled criminals, she was forced to reveal herself

Chapter 34: Foreign caravans seeking protection
"Don't be alarmed, sir. I am a businessman who goes to Beijing to sell goods. Please tell me, it is not easy for us small merchants to earn some hard money. We have passed the Songjiang River ahead, and over there is Panlong Ridge. The terrain is high and densely forested. It's not easy to sell goods. We lost a lot of money there when we came here. We didn't expect to meet all the officials on the way back."

The steward pointed to the caravan behind him with a flattering look on his face, "Sir, please see if you can allow us to follow along."

After all, there are so many official officials, so the gangsters in Panlongling should not be too arrogant.

The yamen servant got a few taels of silver for free, and he was happy and said, "Follow me to the front."

"My lord, you are tired."

The person in charge followed the yamen servant.

Gao Shanhe also wanted to follow, but the officer next to him stopped him with his hand and cursed: "Where did you come from? Go, go, stay here."

Dongzi was a little scared and shrank her neck. Gao Shanhe put down the handle of the car and took some copper coins for the other party. He must have more coins than anyone else, but the free stuff didn't bite his hand, so the officer's complexion immediately improved.

After looking at the two baskets of straw sandals on the car, he immediately smiled and asked, "Are you here to sell straw sandals?"

"Your Majesty, it's clear."

"Go ahead, you've picked a good job."

Dongzi got down from the carriage in shock and followed Gao Shanhe, carrying a pole as he approached the prisoner line.

"Does anyone need sturdy straw sandals?" Gao Shanhe asked as he walked along.

The prisoners started from Songjiang Town early in the morning and walked all the way without stopping at all. At this time, they were so tired that they were struggling to breathe. They heard the cries beside them and had no energy to call for help.

Gao Shanhe walked for a while and discovered this situation, so he slowed down and carefully observed who wanted it.

Not to mention, he actually sold five or six pairs.

Among the exiled prisoners, some were in a hurry to be sent to prison, and their exile was arranged quickly. It would be better if the shoes on their feet were comfortable, what they wore when they were captured, and what they wore when leaving. As for some nobles before their exile, they wore Although the clothes were in tatters after walking all the way, the quality was there.

Straw sandals are not eye-catching, but what is the situation now.

The escorting officers went crazy today and walked wildly.

I was delayed and rested for half the night last night, and the next day I wanted to catch up the lost distance. Even if I was wearing a pair of iron shoes, it would still be broken!
It was the perfect time to sell straw sandals in the mountains and rivers. Many people quickly bought a pair of them because they were afraid that the journey ahead would be so awkward and their feet would be burdened.

Some people bought them and pinned them around their waists, while others simply hung them around their necks with the hemp rope between the two straw sandals.

As soon as he sold it to a family, he saw a group of officers and soldiers coming from behind, followed by a steward with a flattering smile on his face.

Xiong Jiushan heard the report from his subordinates that there was a caravan nearby, and he wanted to follow the team and just pass Panlong Ridge.

He asked someone to come over and interrogate him, only to find out that he hadn't passed by here for a long time, and that in the wild forest of Panlong Ridge, a bandit camp could be established.

No wonder Li Zhouquan had previously labeled the troublemakers as bandits without saying a word, and happily took credit for them.

Li Zhouquan only dared to frame others, but did not dare to suppress the bandits.

These gangsters are extraordinary.

Thinking of this, Xiong Jiushan did not refuse, but he had to check the goods in the caravan to avoid bringing dirty things into trouble.

Naturally, the person in charge had no objection. He accompanied the official sent by Xiong Jiushan to check the contents of the car from the beginning. It was indeed that they were all being transported to the north. After returning to report, the caravans followed closely at the end of the group.

Gao Shanhe was choosing straw sandals for a mother and son. The people in front of them were dressed similarly and looked like a family. He looked at their feet, which were either soap boots or cloth shoes. He thought to himself that this family must have been rich before.

He was about to pick up a basket and go to sell it, when someone next to him cursed angrily: "The Xie family are really bad guys! If it weren't for your riot in the city yesterday, how could so many people have died, and we couldn't even take a breather after walking for a whole day? .”

Gao Shanhe was stunned, Xie Jia?

He was delivering goods in the city before, and he seemed to hear shopkeeper Xinglong and his friends discussing this matter.

"The people of the Xie family have been reduced to this. Why doesn't the god of their Xie family appear?"

"I heard that I exchanged my immortal status for the lives of my whole family. Who knows whether it's true or not?"

"However, isn't my brother-in-law working as an errand in the government office? I heard that Mr. Li is very respectful to General Xie."

"Is this happening?"

"Yes, anyway, he came back and said that the adults treated him unusually. What do we ordinary people know about this kind of thing? Only officials like them who have people in the court know the real inside story." "That's true. Isn't it true? Good people and gods are still fine.”

Gao Shanhe suddenly remembered these conversations and saw the way other people looked at the Xie family, filled with fear and resentment.

Are they the Xie family who are said to have true gods worshiping in their family?

Does their family’s gods care about the poor people who suffered the disaster?
Gao Shanhe did not act rashly. He still picked up straw sandals and went to sell them in front of the Xie family. While selling, he looked at the men of the Xie family. His eyes swept over them cautiously. When he turned back, he met a pair of slightly narrowed, menacing black eyes.

I unconsciously took a wrong step.

Xie Yuchuan's sharp eyes looked up and down at Gaoshanhe, his eyes slowed down, and he raised his eyes slightly: "Orion?"

Gao Shanhe shook his head, "The villagers often walk around in the mountains."

Xie Yuchuan nodded with an "understanding" look on his face.

Because there was a caravan approaching and they were about to reach Songjiang River, the officer in front shouted Xiong Jiushan's order.

"Rest where you are and eat."

There was a crash, and a large piece fell down——

When the command came to the back, everyone stopped.

Xie Yuchuan also found an empty seat nearby and sat down to rest, watching several female relatives at home trading with the straw sandal seller.

Xie Wuying came over and said, "Sixth brother, why are you staring at that salesman?"

Xie Yuchuan looked away and handed the water bag to Xie Wuying, saying quietly: "It's nothing."

Having been accustomed to marching for many years, I have a keen intuition for all approaches with ulterior motives.

After Xie Wuying drank the water, he muttered to himself: "I heard that there is Songjiang River ahead. I will bring some water when I pass by. I don't know if the river is clean. If not, I can find a stream and river to decorate it."

"What kind of water is it filled with?"

Tu Hua's voice suddenly sounded in Xie Yuchuan's ears.

He said casually: "Water from the Songjiang River."

Xie Wuying thought Brother Six was talking to him, so he nodded and replied: "Okay, then let's draw water from the Songjiang River."

Fight whatever Brother Six says.

Xie Yuchuan's eyes flashed, "Yeah."

No explanation either.

Tu Hua spent most of the night with Xie Yuchuan at the Songjiang Mansion Office last night, and then she went back to her house and lay down. She was used to lying in bed during the day and going out at night, so she slept until the afternoon and was very hungry when she woke up.

After a simple meal, let the system move your coordinates over.

It was almost three o'clock when she woke up, and only then did the exiled prisoners eat.

After walking around people all the way to Xie Yuchuan's side, I heard Xie Wuying muttering about what water he wanted to fetch.

The Xie family's water bag was almost exhausted, but Xie Wuying's water bag in front of him happened to have not yet closed the lid.

Tu Hua thought of something, unscrewed a bottle of mineral water from the backpack behind her, and poured it into the mouth of the water bag in Xie Wuying's hand...

Xie Wuying felt her palms sink inexplicably.

Then I looked at the bottom of the water bag on the ground, and it actually bulged up as if I had seen a ghost!

Xie Wuying:…………

Suddenly realized something.

Xie Wuying: Ahhhhhhh!

　Today is the beginning of spring. Have you eaten spring pancakes yet?
