Chapter 206 Child

In Ningbo Prefecture, the residence in Minzhu is concentrated near the North Gate and the East Gate. So after a short rest at the West Gate, Wang Hai took the convoy to deliver the goods first. Zheng Liang, who was idle, took Liu Le, Mingfeng Xiuzheng and Wang Hai's subordinates who were responsible for leading the way, began to tour around.

Zhengliang went to the first place to go to the downtown city in the city.

"Come and have a look! Beautiful ornaments..."

"Delicious buns! They are just released and delicious! Come and buy them!..."

"Candy haws! What a sweet candy haws!"

The streets were filled with small vendors selling various items, including rice, meat, fish, vegetables, and cloth. There were all kinds of people selling them, and shouting and bargaining were heard one after another, and there were endless pedestrians on the road.

Shuttle through the crowd, you can hear the loud shouts of various businesses on the street. Zhengliang seemed to have returned to the vegetable market in later generations. It turned out that no matter in that era, this kind of special hawking sound was always the same. The difference is the clothes of the people around him and what they sell.

Walking forward, I saw a gorgeously decorated shop not far away. Zheng Liang looked at it and saw that there was Zhang Ji pawn shop outside the door. Through the door, he looked inside. The beams of the rosewood houses emitted a faint fragrance continuously, the shelf of the yellow rosewood carved a strong historical atmosphere, the stairs of the water bells were irregularly embedded with gems, the tables and chairs carved dragons and phoenixes, and the corners were inlaid with gold, glass lampshades, jade screens, Tang Sancai vases and white marble abacus. Even the thresholds were engraved with phoenixes and peony patterns. It was not unreasonable.

Turning around and looking, there was a restaurant named "Zuixianglou" on the street. At this moment, there were crowds of people. Countless famous people, rich businessmen and beauties were drunk and dreaming.

"Your Highness, be careful." Just as Zhengliang stopped to watch, Liu Le's exclamation came from behind.

Zhengliang was about to turn his head and see what was going on, but suddenly he found a black shadow bumping into his arms. In desperation, Zhengliang shrank his abdomen and stood still, preparing to block the attack.

It was time to say that. When Zhengliang was ready, the black shadow happened to hit the man in his arms. Zhengliang held the visitor with both hands and looked closely. It turned out to be a little boy, who looked only eleven or two years old. After the little boy fell into Zhengliang's arms, he immediately leaned on him and stood firm with the help of the rebound force on Zhengliang. Then he bypassed Zhengliang and continued to run wildly.

"Don't run." At the same time, more than a dozen children rushed over and shouted. Zhengliang, who was prepared, immediately avoided sideways. Liu Le and the sailor in charge of leading the way were not so lucky. They were knocked down several times by the child who rushed through the crowd. Although they did not knock them down, they were also embarrassed.

On the contrary, Ming Feng Xiuzheng looked like she was not close to her, which made the children take a detour and was completely unsuccessful.

The group of children made a mess on the street, which immediately caused everyone around to hide, and the streets became chaotic.

"Xiuzheng" At this time, Masara suddenly called Aofeng Xiuzheng to his side and whispered. Aofeng Xiuzheng nodded and then quickly left.

Liu Lejian, who had just finished his clothes, was immediately confused and immediately saluted Zhengliang and said, "Your Highness, why is this?" Obviously he was asking why Ming Feng Xiuzheng left.

"Haha, you will know soon. But you check it carefully. Are all the things on your body?" Masayoshi said with a smile. Just when the child hit him, Masayoshi obviously felt that the child's hand was inserted into the clothes where he placed the coins. He was obviously preparing to steal the property. Unfortunately, all the silver coins of Masayoshi were handed over to Akimoto Xiuzheng. So the child was in vain.

"Ah?", "Ah?" Zhengliang heard two consecutive screams, obviously it was from Liu Le and the sailor.

"Your Highness. My silver is gone." "My sir, mine is gone."

"Don't panic. It will be retrieved soon," said Zhengliang.

"Your Highness means that the subordinates' property was stolen by the group of children just now?" Liu Le was not a fool. Based on Zheng Liang's words just now, he quickly knew who was the culprit for the loss of property.

Zhengliang nodded to show that Liu Le's speculation was good.

"What?" Before Liu Le could do anything, the sailor behind him started to angrily screamed, "Look, I won't beat them up." Originally, he didn't have many coins with him, but this time he was rare to come to Ningbo Mansion. He almost brought all his wealth to the point of finding a beautiful girl in Yicuilou to have a night of happiness. As a result, the children stole the money. It would be strange if he was not angry. If it weren't for Zhengliang's consent, he would have chased the children in the direction of the escape.

"No need to do this, we will get our things back soon," Zhengliang said calmly.

Seeing Zhengliang so calm, the sailor had to temporarily endure his anger. After all, the other party was the nobles of the boss, and depending on the situation, he would even become his own boss. The other party's orders must be followed.

About two quarters of an hour later, Ming Fengxiu finally returned in a hurry.

"Your Highness, found it." Aimong Xiu said in a low voice to Masayora. After all, he was speaking ri language at the moment. In order to be mistaken for the Japanese pirates by others, he had to keep a low profile.

"Let's go" Zhengliang didn't say nonsense and immediately instructed Ming Fengxiu to lead the way.

Under the leadership of Ming Feng Xiuzheng, the group gradually walked out of the bustling street market and continued to go towards the city gate. Since everyone was walking, the speed was much slower than Ming Feng Xiuzheng's trotting and tracking the group of children just now. Half an hour later, everyone walked into a small alley that was a little dark. Coming along the way, looking at the increasingly dilapidated house, Zhenglai knew that he had arrived in the slums of Ningbo Prefecture.

"Your Highness, they are in the innermost yard," Ming Feng Xiuzheng said in a low voice.

Zhengliang nodded after hearing this and walked softly into the yard where Ming Feng Xiuzheng discovered.

I saw that the two walls of the yard were covered with moss and even weeds. Looking through the gaps in the yard wall, I only saw a collapsed tiled house. There was only one corner of the north that had not completely collapsed. Obviously, this was a abandoned house. The house price in the Ming Dynasty was not cheap. A simple tiled house usually costs 50 taels of silver. This was still a slum, so no matter in that era, the house was always the thing of the rich and the poor were just a luxury.

"Sister, wake up quickly, look, brother comes back with delicious food." At this time, a young male voice came from the abandoned yard. Zhengliang couldn't help but stop when he heard the sound and listened carefully. Everyone behind him also stopped.

"Brother, I miss my mother" a thin voice sounded. The sound seemed to be sick.

"Be good, come and eat this. Mom will be back soon." The tender male voice rang again.

"No, brother lied to me, mom doesn't want us anymore," the girl's voice shouted again.

"There's also the elder brother. The elder brother will take care of you. Be good, I'll eat this soon."

"Hehe, my brother met a few big customers today, and soon enough money to buy medicine. Then you can buy medicine to treat the disease."

"Brother, I don't want to treat the disease."

"What are you saying? How can you not cure your illness?"

"No, I won't cure my illness. Woo woo..." A girl's crying sounded in the yard.

After a long time, the boy's voice rang again: "Be good, eat quickly."

"Did your brother eat it too?"

"I'm full, look." The boy seemed to pat his stomach to prove that he was full.

"No, my brother has lie to me again. Brother, let's eat together," the girl said weakly.

"Okay, let's eat together," the boy said with a choking voice. (To be continued, please search for Piaotianwen, the novel is better, updated and faster!
