Ji Yunkai thinks that she is not a very caring person, and she has no interest in being a close sister who guides lost children. Moreover, even if she wanted to show her love, she would not take Princess Tao'an as a partner. There are more people in the world than Princess Tao'an.
People who need help more.
Ji Yunkai's method was simple and crude. She asked Baoqin to drag Princess Tao'an out and asked where the shelter for orphans in Qingjing was. Then she asked Crown Prince Duan to take Baoqin and throw Princess Tao'an in, leaving her there.
She should stay for a while and let the people at the shelter introduce her to the situation inside.
"Aren't you going?" Prince Duan couldn't help but ask when he saw that Ji Yunkai had no intention of going with him.
Ji Yunkai said without thinking: "I won't go."
"Why?" Wouldn't it be more effective to follow up in person?
"I can't bear to see the situation there, and I can't bear it." She considers herself not a compassionate person, but when she sees those abandoned children with no tomorrow, she still feels distressed, wants to cry, and hates her own powerlessness.
.
"I understand." Prince Duan is not a flower growing in a greenhouse. He is very aware of the situation in the shelter. Not even Ji Yunkai can see it.
He always felt that he was miserable, but when he compared himself with those abandoned children, he realized that he was happy. Although he lived a shaky life every day, at least he had no food and clothing, so he didn't have to worry about going hungry.
The feeling of hunger was really uncomfortable. He once tried not eating for three days and only drank gruel like the children in the shelter. In the end, he was so hungry that he wanted to eat himself.
If Tao An could see how the children in the shelter live, she might no longer be so naive, arrogant and ignorant.
Crown Prince Duan no longer forced Ji Yunkai, and he and Bao Qin sent Princess Tao'an to the shelter. As soon as they got on the carriage, Princess Tao'an asked uneasily: "Brother Crown Prince, where are you taking me? Brother Crown Prince, I don't want to go out now, please."
Will you let me go back?"
Princess Tao An was grabbed by Bao Qin and huddled pitifully in the corner. If it were in the past, Crown Prince Duan would have felt sorry for her, but now he only felt that he was indeed too indulgent of Tao An.
He knew clearly that King Duan and that woman would not sincerely wait for Tao An, but would only pamper her to the point of ignorance and ignorance, yet he actually followed suit.
Well, before he met Ji Yunkai, he felt that his daughter's family should be more arrogant. Why should his Zhao Chenhe's sister live so hard like others? As long as he, Zhao Chenhe, is around, his sister can be arrogant.
Live heartlessly, just be happy, but...
After getting to know Ji Yunkai, Crown Prince Duan realized that things are impermanent, life is too long, and no one knows what the future will be like. People, it is better to live with some understanding.
No matter how much Princess Tao'an cried and begged, Prince Duan remained indifferent. Princess Tao'an cried for a long time, but no one paid attention to her. Her crying slowly became smaller and smaller, and finally she fell asleep when she was tired of crying.
Looking at Tao An's sleeping face with tears in his eyes, Prince Duan didn't feel sorry for him but only laughed at himself.
He thinks he is quite harsh to Tao An, but every time Tao An cries, he becomes soft-hearted and tries to coax him. He always thinks that if he doesn't coax Tao An, he will keep crying and hurt his body and eyes. But now he understands
, if he keeps ignoring him, Tao An will naturally stop crying when he gets tired.
Half an hour later, the carriage arrived at the shelter in Beicheng. Baoqin rudely pushed Princess Tao An awake, and before she could react, he pulled her out of the carriage.
"What kind of place is this?" Princess Tao'an was shocked when she looked at the dirty and messy place in front of her.
The east is rich and the west is noble, the south is poor and the north is humble. Princess Tao'an has never been to Beicheng, let alone a place with such a bad environment.
"Tao An, take a good look at the real life of the people at the bottom, see how others live, and then tell your brother, do you still want to die?" Prince Duan still had a gentle smile on his face, but this smile was different.
Unexpectedly, Princess Tao An was inexplicably frightened and did not dare to resist as she was being dragged away by Qin Bao.
Baoqin is quite familiar with this area. Every year, the Prince of Yanbei selects a group of children from the shelter to raise them secretly. She comes to this place often because she was also picked out by the prince from the shelter.
Baoqin, who was familiar with the situation, took Princess Tao'an to the shelter and invited a woman to introduce Princess Tao'an to the situation of the children here.
The shelter in the capital is at the feet of the emperor. The environment is already considered good, but even so, it is still cramped, damp, and suffocatingly narrow. There are children who cannot walk everywhere on the ground. They are all dirty and slightly older.
Everyone's eyes were numb, and the little ones only cried and groaned. It was chaotic and noisy inside.
As soon as Princess Tao An entered, a child hugged her leg. She was so frightened that she shouted: "Help, help, help!"
The child holding her legs had a big head and big eyes, but a small body and small hands.
"Sister, you stepped on my foot." The child was also frightened by Princess Tao An and said tremblingly.
His legs... were actually two strips of soft cotton, dragging on the ground. If he hadn't reminded her, Princess Tao'an wouldn't have known that she had stepped on something.
"Ah..." After realizing what she had stepped on, Princess Tao An kept screaming and jumped away quickly. When she turned around, she saw a thin child holding a handful of golden things in his hand and stuffing them into his mouth. That thing, that thing
thing……
"She's eating shit, you, you... don't stop her?" Princess Tao An was going crazy. She held her head and didn't dare to look at it. She quickly closed her eyes, but even if she closed her eyes, the scenes in the room were still going on.
replayed in her mind.
She obviously only glanced at it, why couldn't she forget it?
"I want... to leave, I want to leave here." Princess Tao'an cried and shouted, but at this moment, a shrill scream suddenly came from the house. The sound was louder and more miserable.
"Fa, what happened?" Princess Tao An opened her eyes in fright, and looked at the numb and horrifying children in the room. She tightly grabbed the hand holding Qin, for fear of holding Qin and leaving her here.
This place is so terrible, dirty, messy and smelly, and these children are so terrible. They look at her as if they want to eat her.
"Just go and take a look and you'll find out." Here, all kinds of tragedies happen every day. Bao Qin is used to it, but he still feels pain in his heart.
"I won't go, I won't go..." Princess Tao An refused, but Bao Qin would not care about her. She directly carried the person over and found a person from the shelter to ask why the child inside was screaming.
So miserable.
"What a sin." The people in the shelter have been here for a long time and have never seen anything tragic, but when they mention the crying child inside, they still can't help but shed a few tears... (To be continued)
