Chapter 1 Young Master, here are two disaster victims!
Chapter 1 Master, two victims are here to make trouble!
Winter of the third year of Zhenguan.
It snowed heavily for several days, and the sky and earth were completely desolate.
The outskirts of Wannian County.
In the elegant and gorgeous manor, Su Chen was sitting inside eating hot pot.
The snowy scenery outside the window is pleasant, and the aroma of meat overflows in the house.
The old butler brought hot wine, filled the wine glass, and reported the current situation.
"Master, it has been snowing heavily recently, and the victims from the surrounding areas have been placed in the village in accordance with your instructions."
Su Chen nodded slightly.
"Well, those who are strong will go farming from now on. Lao Xu, you can bring some more people and bring thirty pieces of rock salt to sprinkle on the road in the village to prevent the road from being slippery in the cold weather, and kill another cow by the way."
The old housekeeper was dumbfounded, but he could only respond with courtesy.
My young master is very capable. Not to mention sprinkling salt on the ground, even slaughtering a cow is not a once-in-a-lifetime thing. He has been a little numb for many days...
After the old housekeeper left, Su Chen looked out the window with emotion.
It has been a year since he traveled through the Tang Dynasty...
Since activating the system, signing in several times, and receiving countless rewards, life has become more and more promising. In the future, I will expand the manor, marry several beautiful wives and concubines, and my life will be really comfortable.
It's a pity that the snowstorm is raging now, which is really disturbing. I can only try my best to take in some poor people, hoping that God will clear up soon.
Chang'an City.
Days of heavy snow have caused countless houses to collapse, and starving and frozen corpses are common sights. The tragic scene is heart-wrenching.
Li Shimin, who paid a private visit incognito, was full of worry and guilt in his heart. When he walked outside the city gate, he paid a serious tribute to Sun Wuji, the official minister who was accompanying him.
"Auxiliary machine, am I really as unworthy of the world as the people say... am I unworthy of the world?"
"Your Majesty, this is a natural disaster, how can I blame you?"
Li Shimin was silent, feeling a little comforted in his heart, but when he looked back and saw the victims everywhere in the city, he still couldn't calm down.
Even Chang'an was severely affected by the disaster. How tragic would it be in other places?
His Majesty the Emperor was extremely heartbroken. Even though he was wearing coarse clothes and the intention of the private visit was extremely sincere, it was difficult to offset the guilt in his heart. He immediately decided to go out to the city to check the situation in person to show sympathy for the people.
Along the way, the monarch and his ministers saw even more tragic scenes, and they could only remain silent, letting their rough clothes get wet from the wind and snow, the roads were slippery and the weather was cold, and they felt a biting chill all over their bodies. They became more and more aware of the hardships of survival for the common people.
An hour later, the two people, with heavy hearts, saw someone scattering white sand on the road. They were all well-dressed and in high spirits, and they didn't look like disaster victims at all.
Such weird behavior is particularly conspicuous in this disaster.
The two looked at each other in confusion and immediately rushed forward to ask.
"What are you doing?"
The leading old housekeeper heard the sound and looked at each other. He saw two middle-aged men covered in snow striding towards them. Their clothes were shabby and their shoes were soaked. They looked like victims of the disaster. Out of good intentions, the old housekeeper answered.
"If you have nowhere to go, you can go to our village. You will have food and clothing. We are spreading salt to drive away the snow under the orders of the young master. We will take you there in a moment."
After listening to half of the sentence, Li Shimin was still grateful that the young master was a good man, and felt comforted in his heart. However, after hearing the second half of the sentence, his face froze.
Sprinkle salt?
Regardless of the other people's opinions, Li Shimin immediately stepped forward and stretched out his finger, dipped a little from the jar in front of him and put it into his mouth. The salty fragrance immediately overflowed, and it was extremely pure!
Li Er was shocked on the spot!
Really salt!
Before Li Er could react, a group of people continued to sprinkle salt forward, mixed with white snow and fell to the ground. For a moment, it was impossible to tell which was snow and which was salt...
"stop!"
Li Er shouted loudly, causing everyone to turn around and look at him in shock.
The old housekeeper was puzzled and watched, but because of the miserable look on their faces, he patiently and kindly settled down.
"You guys wait a moment. After I finish spreading the salt and slaughter a cow, I will take you to your residence. The young master is a kind man and will definitely take you in..."
But before the old housekeeper could finish speaking, Li Er became so angry that he glared at everyone!
"Bold! You are lawless, and the young master you are talking about is a heinous crime. Do you think you have the law of the court in your eyes when you act so wantonly? Why don't you just surrender without mercy!"
Hearing this, everyone's faces darkened!
You bastard, the young master generously took you in and provided everyone with food and clothing, but in the end you turned into a villain, and you were told what to do by such a disaster victim who had never seen the world!
The old housekeeper was no longer patient and immediately gave the order in a deep voice!
"Tie these two bastards up!"
Li Er and Changsun Wuji had been through the storm and had no strength left. They did not expect to encounter bad guys. After several punches and kicks, they were tied up and sent to the manor.
"Master, two victims have come to make trouble."
Soon after, the old housekeeper reported the incident.
"Victims causing trouble?" Su Chen blinked his eyelids and didn't take it to heart.
Nowadays, great disasters are happening in Guanzhong and Heluo, and there is also an epidemic of plague.
There are millions of refugees, an astonishing number!
Although his place is not a dangerous place, it has received hundreds of refugees during these days.
"Bring them in!" He said calmly, wanting to see who was here to cause trouble!
If he is just an ordinary refugee, he can be taught a lesson and collected. Anyway, his manor is short of manpower to take care of it.
But if it is some kind of criminal who blocks the road, like a rooster or a dog robber, then he will have to repair it and then throw it to the government.
"Yes, I will bring them over right now!" The old housekeeper nodded, then turned and left.
Su Chen looked at the white snow flying outside the window, continued to put the fresh beef into the pot to cook, picked up a small glass of crystal clear wine, and drank it in one gulp.
There is snow falling outside the window, and it is covered in silver.
Meat is cooking in the window, and the wine is fragrant.
…
"Master, I've brought it to you!" the old housekeeper's voice came from outside.
"Bring them in!" Su Chen spoke.
The door opens.
A dozen burly men with scarred faces walked in. In the middle of them were two men tied with hemp ropes.
"Hey!" Su Chen looked up at the person who walked in, looking slightly stunned: "Such a big battle!?"
Not only are they tall and strong, but they have also served as soldiers and are proficient in boxing and kicking. How can two troublemakers cause such a big fight now?
Sensing something unusual, Su Chen quickly shifted his gaze to the two people who were escorted in.
I saw that both of them were in their forties.
One person is wearing a black brocade robe, while the other person is wearing a blue robe.
The man in black brocade clothes is slightly chubby, with a face that is not angry but has a Chinese character, and there is an extraordinary domineering look between his eyebrows.
The man in blue robe has a faint expression on his face and a thin figure.
These two people were Li Shimin and Changsun Wuji.
Now they were beaten badly by Su Chen's men.
They were all in their forties, so they couldn't beat Su Chen's group of men who were like wolves and tigers. After a fight, they were all beaten with bruises and swollen faces.
