Facing his son's doubts, Lu Baichuan patiently explained: "If you want to check these things now, you have to start from other places. Everything that can be hidden in the mountains has been hidden, and the other party will not let us know."

Jing The trouble in the capital has been going on for so long, and people from the imperial court are also on their way here. Even if the other party is brave and courageous, they would not dare to show it so blatantly. They must have hidden everything they need to take advantage of Prince Jing's affairs. .

"Then how are we going to check?"

Lu Baichuan replied: "There is information in places with many people. I will take you into the city at noon tomorrow."

The dog immediately became interested: "Okay!"

When Jiang Jiuniang went back, she was still reading the novel. When she saw them, she asked: "How is the situation?"

Lu Baichuan glanced at his son and motioned for him to speak.

Gou'er stepped forward and said: "Mother, Uncle Jing's condition is very bad. If we don't go, his life will probably be in danger! In addition, we also heard a group of people saying that Prince Jing is in very bad condition. Uncle Wang was harmed by them, saying that Uncle Jing discovered their secret, so he wanted to kill Uncle Jing."

After hearing this, Jiang Jiuniang glanced at Lu Baichuan, and said, Guy, he really guessed it right.

This man is really keen on some things.

"It's good that you are still alive. It's getting late. Let's get some sleep first and check the specific situation tomorrow. Anyway, the people sent by the imperial court haven't arrived yet, so we still have plenty of time."

Jiang Jiuniang breathed a sigh of relief. Anyway, as long as she still had a breath left, she could save him. What's more, they were all here now, so naturally they wouldn't just watch something happen to Prince Jing.

"Yeah, dad said that too, I will go with dad tomorrow!"

No one can recognize him."

Jiang Jiuniang rubbed his head, her eyes filled with admiration.

For such a young child to be so outstanding, it can be said that Dog is her most proud work so far.

"Is this the kind of makeup my mother put on us when we entered Jingzhou City?"

The dog's eyes lit up, full of anticipation. Overflowed.

Jiang Jiuniang tried hard to think about the makeup she put on everyone when she entered Jingzhou City.

Seeing that she couldn’t remember it, the dog reminded anxiously: “It’s the kind... with a lot of injuries on the body...”

“Oh, that! "

Jiang Jiu Niang has an impression that she was injured in the special effects to avoid male conscription.It is probably a bit exaggerated to use it now, but the whole thing is not impossible.

"Okay, mom will fix it for you tomorrow!"

The dog was instantly happy and followed Lu Baichuan to wash up in the creek nearby, and then the family of three Get into the tent and rest.

The next day, under Jiang Jiuniang’s encouragement, the father and son limped into the city as if they had completely changed their heads.

If it weren’t for a guide who could confuse the fake ones with the real ones, the two men would have been kicked out as beggars by the officers and soldiers guarding the city.

After entering the city, the two looked at each other and quietly gave a thumbs up.

Afterwards, the two of them found a restaurant in the city’s busiest restaurant for dinner. The waiter at the restaurant was very kind and led them to sit down at a table in the corner and asked, “Would you like to eat something?” What?"

"Just a few light side dishes."

"It's only been two days and I'm tired of eating wild game.

Gou'er thought to himself that it didn't matter to him and his father, but his mother still had a little sister in her belly. He must take good care of her. From then on, he could come to the restaurant to pack a portion for her every day. Go back with a well-balanced meal of meat and vegetables.

"Please wait a moment to be objective."

The waiter recommended a few refreshing side dishes. Just as he was about to leave, Lu Baichuan grabbed him and stuffed a few coins in the With his hand in his hand, he asked with a good attitude: "Little brother, are there any jobs in this city that are recruiting? We went to the city this time just to find a job, otherwise our family will not be able to survive!"

The waiter had a good attitude. Now that he had accepted the money, the smile on his face became more genuine. He said in a local accent: "Hey, you are foreigners, right? Are you looking for a job?" But unfortunately, we originally had work to do here, but there was an earthquake some time ago, and the house and the mountain collapsed, and many people died. Work has been temporarily suspended. Your trip is probably in vain! "

When Gou'er saw his father asking a waiter, he thought he wouldn't be able to find out anything, but he didn't expect that there was actually news.

Lu Baichuan’s acting skills exploded, and then asked: "Huh? We just came here because we had something to do. Why are we here now and we say no? Then how can our family of three survive? Children His mother still has one in her belly, what can she do!"

The waiter saw Lu Baichuan's heartbroken look and sympathized with him, but the current situation is like this, which is very regrettable. Said: "You can only go and look elsewhere. Besides, although there is work in the mountains here, it doesn't seem to be a good job. If you go there, you won't be able to go home. It's even more inappropriate for a family like you. , let’s find something else to do.”

After saying that, the waiter went to the kitchen to prepare the dishes, leaving only the poor father and son.Staring little eyes.

After dinner, the father and son started walking around the city. The dog asked again: "Dad, where should we go to inquire now?"

"Don't worry, let's go first. Take a look around."

Lu Baichuan obviously has a lot of experience. Although he didn't ask anything substantive in the restaurant just now, he at least confirmed that there are people working in the mountain, and it is very closed.

Being able to do things in the mountains is just a few things.

Either digging some secret tunnel to hide something, mining, or raising troops like King Xun did before.

At present, if we can rule out the possibility of raising soldiers, then only secret tunnels and mining are left.

Either one of the two, or both.

Thinking like this, he headed towards the city where the poor lived.

The collapse of the houses in the city was not very serious, but the lives of the people were still difficult.

When I walked around the slums, I found that most of them were women, children, the elderly, the weak, the sick, and the disabled. They all had sad faces, and no one spoke to them when they passed by.

"Auntie, do you know where I can find work that can make money?"

Lu Baichuan arrived at the door of a house, and an old woman was washing clothes. Then he came forward and asked.

"Where can I find a job? My son went and didn't come back, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh..."

The old woman cried before she could finish her words. When he came out, Lu Baichuan was anxious and asked what was going on.

The old woman seemed to have just found a chance to vent her anger. She cried and said: "In the past two years, the government began to recruit people to work in the mountains. They can earn two copper coins a day. The men in our neighborhood Dingdu has gone, and whoever knows who has gone will not be allowed to go home. Only when someone comes back with wages every month can he barely survive. I don’t know what they do in the mountains. It only lasts for ten days and a half. There will be news that people are dead. My son is lucky and has been fine for the past two years."

"But who knew that this earthquake actually buried all the people, and everyone would be able to come back. Wuwuwuwu... We are the only useless ones in this circle. The old and the young at home cannot survive at all. The government does not provide any subsidies at all. I don’t know what to do with my family. Wuwuwu ……"
