"That's not right! Why are they just women, children and children, not a single young worker..."
"That's right! Famine escapes shouldn't be like this, and they will be stopped by the defenders in the outer city and not allowed to enter..."
The guests in the teahouse and restaurant were talking a lot.
On the street, a long line of refugees spread out, including women, children, and children. The leader was a man shrouded in a black robe.
These are not refugees fleeing famine, but poor people brought back from the slums by Mo Wen.
Together, women, children and children numbered nearly 300 people.
A group of people followed Mo Wen and arrived at the Forbidden Wall Chengtian Gate.
"Stop!"
"This is not the place you should be, get out of here!"
The soldiers guarding the city gate scolded this group of people in ragged clothes who looked like refugees.
"Those losers in Zhongdu City can't even look at the door, so why would they let you into the city?"
One of the soldiers cursed.
There was a commotion among the women, children and children in the crowd. The women and children all raised their eyes to look at Mo Wen under the black robe, at a loss.
"I want to take them in. These are the new servants in my house. The city order does not say who cannot enter the city..."
Mo Wen, who was under the black robe, raised his head, looked at the sarcastic soldier and said.
"Tch! There is no need to state it explicitly in the city order. This is an unwritten rule. The refugees are resettled outside the city and cannot enter. Who knows if these refugees have plagues and infectious diseases..."
Soldier said.
"I won't make things difficult for you. You can't be the master. Send me your commander!"
Mo Wen suppressed the anger in his heart and said coldly.
"Li San, what's going on? Why are so many refugees blocked here? It's already affecting the entry and exit of pedestrians!"
A thin general came out from behind the city gate and asked.
"Master City Guard! This group of people was brought here by this man. He said they were new servants in his house. He was looking for you..."
The soldier quickly pointed at Mo Wen and said.
"Who is he? You are hiding your head and tail. Put down your hood! I am doing a routine inspection. Don't get mixed up with the demon spies. What about you? Hurry up..."
The city guard saw Mo Wen's outfit and said loudly.
Hearing that his soldiers said he was a new servant in this man's house, he felt excited.
He asked Mo Wen to take off his hood, not because he was looking for spies, but mainly because he wanted to see if Mo Wen recognized his appearance. If not, he was undoubtedly a fat sheep!
His name is Li Si. Although he looks like a sharp-mouthed monkey, his sister is very handsome and she is the concubine of Jinyang Hou Mansion.
The position of City Guard was obtained by his sister through a lot of flirting with her brother-in-law, the Marquis of Jinyang, so she often secretly set up traps and made a lot of money.
However, others are also shrewd and pick out those who are soft persimmons and have the same or higher position as their brother-in-law. They never dare to look carelessly.
As for the remaining ones, he was open to fishing. Anyway, they didn't dare to offend his brother-in-law. As long as it wasn't too much, those people would consider themselves unlucky.
He also knew how to show a lot of filial piety to his brother-in-law, Marquis Jinyang, but Marquis Jinyang just turned a blind eye.
"Is it okay now?"
Mo Wenyi took off his hood and revealed his true face.
"Hehe...it's okay, it's okay, but there are so many of you, so I need to register them. The cost is fifty taels of silver per person..."
Li Si took a look and saw that this man was handsome and extraordinarily handsome, but he was not among the ranks that his brother-in-law could not afford to offend. He rubbed his thumb and index finger on his right hand back and forth and smiled at Mo Wen.
The meaning is obvious, I just want benefits!
"What? When did the Imperial City change its rules? Why didn't I know?"
Mo Wen's eyes flashed coldly and he said coldly.
"Haha... This young master is very cool. I wonder which mansion he is working in?"
Li Si was startled by his eyes. Maybe he had offended the wrong person, so he quickly made amends.
He wanted to find out the details from Mo Wen's mouth. If he accidentally bumped into some great god, he would just apologize and let him go. If not, then he would never let this fat sheep go.
"Jingce Mansion!"
Mo Wen said calmly.
"Oh...it turns out to be Jingce Mansion! Then you have to pay more..."
Li Si changed his friendly attitude to a cold attitude.
Haha... The third prince's Jingce Mansion used to be famous far and wide. That was before, since the third prince died on the battlefield five years ago, Jingce Mansion has been nothing but an empty shell!
Now there is only an old butler taking care of it. Is he afraid of a ball?
The person in front of me is young and has no fluctuations in cultivation. After all, he is also in the late stage of Jindan. Could it be that he has the cultivation of Nascent Soul stage and I can't detect it?
His eyes are bright!
At this age, in the Nascent Soul stage, everyone is a genius, and he will not offend them.
No matter which family has a Qilin'er, he will be known to everyone. There is no such person in the declining mansion of Jingce Mansion. If he is there, he will definitely know.
"boom!"
Mo Wen directly kicked Li Si away with a flying kick. In order not to make things worse and kill anyone, he controlled his strength.
"Asshole, you dare to beat an officer at the foot of the imperial city. It seems you don't want to live anymore..."
Li Si got up from the ground, but he didn't expect that the other party would dare to take action. He didn't check for a moment and was kicked directly. Although this kick was neither painful nor itchy to him, it made him stand out in front of so many subordinates.
, lost face.
"Come here! Capture him! Drive these refugees out of the imperial city!"
Li Si ordered without asking.
After hearing the commander's order, the soldiers at the city gate surrounded Mo Wen!
"Hahaha... drive them out? If they are not qualified to stay in the imperial city, then you are not qualified to stay in this human land! Do you know who they are?"
Don't be afraid of the soldiers who surrounded you and laugh in anger.
"Humph! Aren't they just a group of refugees in ragged clothes? Who else could they be?"
Li Siyin took a test.
"Refugees? They are all soldiers and soldiers who fought bravely on the battlefield!"
Mo Wen stared at Li Si with anger in his eyes.
"Do you know why there are only orphans and widows left among them? Because their husbands, their fathers, and their children have all died in battle and died for the country! Only they, orphans and widows, are left!"
When the women and children among the poor heard this, their heads were lowered and their eyes were red.
The soldiers who surrounded Mo Wen were all shaken, shocked, and full of disbelief.
Are these the widows and orphans of fellow soldiers?
"It's so ridiculous! They sacrificed their lives for the country on the front line, and their loyal souls were buried in a foreign land, but their orphans and widows were spurned by the people who left them in peace! What right do you have to spurn them and look down on them? Do you deserve it too?"
Don't ask about the people who are laughing wildly and looking around.
The soldiers guarding the city lowered their heads, not daring to make eye contact with Mo Wen.
They were all gnashing their teeth, and the palms holding their weapons turned white from exerting too much force, and the veins on them popped out.
