All my subjects want to usurp the throne

Chapter 299 Could it be eating the overlord's meal?
Ling Xiao didn't intend to intervene in this matter at this time, just as they were about to get up and set off, they heard the man's voice again.

"You don't know, we came from Sanhe County, and when we arrived in Liuzhou next door, our people were beaten to death. This time, we finally heard that the famine in our Sanhe County is over, so we wanted to go back. I was really hungry. There is no other way, so I came to this restaurant to eat something, or I will put the money on credit first, and then I will find a way to borrow it and pay it back!"

The man said now with some embarrassment, and the woman behind him should be his wife, and it was really not easy for other guests to bring two children.

Although Xiao Er said that he was a little moved after hearing this, but now it is stipulated that he is not the shopkeeper here, so he has no such right.

"It's nice to say, there are so many people who eat free food now, how can you be sure to come back?"

The implication of Xiao Er's words was that he was worried that they would run away.

The man before said: "Otherwise, I will set up written evidence as proof. If I don't return the money later, you can go to the customs at that time, and at worst I will be arrested."

When the woman behind heard this, she said to him: "Master, how can you say such a thing, we don't have any money now, how can we still pay for the meal?"

Speaking of this, I saw the woman secretly wiped her tears, and now the child stared at all this, but they were still young, and it seemed that they didn't know what happened.

Wu Zhao's heart softened for a moment, and at this moment he tugged on Ling Xiao's sleeve, and Ling Xiao immediately knew what Wu Zhao was thinking.

Although Ling Xiao didn't intend to take care of this matter originally, but when he heard the word Sanhe County just now, he wanted to ask clearly now.

It seems that these people should have come from Liuzhou. Speaking of Liuzhou, Ling Xiao seems to have some impressions?

A few days ago, I heard the people of Sanhe County say that a group of refugees escaped from their Sanhe County and went to Liuzhou, but the county magistrate of Liuzhou treated them very unfriendly.

They even beat some of them to death with sticks because of this, Zhang Sanfang got angry for several days.

Originally, he wanted to go to Liuzhou to meet the county magistrate of Liuzhou to discuss this matter, but because of the recent incidents in Sanhe County, he was distracted, and he couldn't be distracted.

So I had to put this matter on hold. In Ling Xiao's opinion, this matter didn't seem that serious.

But looking at these people in ragged clothes now, they look like beggars.

It's not hard to imagine that even if they fled to Liuzhou, they still couldn't survive this day.

At this time, Ling Xiao walked up to the waiter and asked him, "What happened?"

When Xiao Er saw Ling Xiao, although he felt a little nervous at this moment, his expression was very calm.

I saw him say: "Young Master, I don't know something. These people just came to stroll around the gate of our Zuixiang Building. I thought they should have money, so I let them in. Who knew they were Come for free!"

"It's not easy for us to open this restaurant. We can't take advantage of these people every time, so what do we earn?"

Xiaoer said a little indignantly for a while.

In fact, the shopkeeper of his family did a lot of good things in the past few days, and even the one hundred stones of grain was deducted from their wages.

So for the sake of these refugees, their hearts were broken in this Zuixiang Building.

But everyone can't be like them, as long as they pass through their Zuixianglou, they can come in for free, so aren't they busy all day?
And when the man saw Ling Xiao stand up and uphold justice for them, it was as if he had grabbed a life-saving straw for a while.

He said pleadingly: "Master, why don't you lend me a few taels of silver, and I'll make up the money first. We people in Sanhe County have always kept our word."

Ling Xiao winked at Li Dequan at this time, and then Li Dequan took out a silver ingot from his arms, and handed it to Xiaoer.

It was a bit embarrassing when I was a sophomore.

"My lord, although you are kind, not all ordinary people can accept your love. Some people know about this matter today, and tomorrow someone will come to our Zuixianglou to repeat the old trick, so you should not interfere with this matter, my lord." gone."

Xiaoer now said earnestly.

"We are really not the people you said, how about this, I will make a written statement now, and I will definitely return the money to the young master."

The man before said to Ling Xiao very anxiously.

When Ling Xiao saw this, he waved his hand towards him: "Don't worry, I will pay the money for you today, you don't have to pay it back, but there is one thing I want to ask clearly, you said you came from Sanhe County? "

The man frowned when he heard this, and then said helplessly: "Young Master, I don't know, I am indeed from Sanhe County, but there was a famine in Sanhe County some time ago, so I took my family to I came to Liuzhou just to have a bite to eat."

"But when we arrived in Liuzhou, the county magistrate of Liuzhou drove us out, but we didn't have the energy to go back. In the end, we had to beg along the street and came to this moon city, but we later found out that those ordinary people who went to Liuzhou were beaten up again. I was beaten to death, I really regret it now, I should have stayed in Sanhe County and not going anywhere!"

Speaking of this, he regrets it now.

Especially yesterday, he knew that Sanhe County had recently visited several officials from the imperial court, and they sent money and food to Sanhe County so that Sanhe could tide over the difficulties first.

And because of this incident, he planned to rush all the way back to Sanhe County, but the journey was far away, and now he finally came across a restaurant, but he did have two cents in his pocket.

But looking at his two children, they were pale and emaciated from hunger. If they didn't go in and give it a try, maybe they would die on the way back to their hometown, so he has nowhere to go now.

Ling Xiao's face looked a little ugly at this time, Wu Zhao looked at him from the side, knowing that if His Majesty knew about this matter, he would definitely not let it go.

So if she guessed correctly, maybe they will go to Liuzhou this time.

"I saw Ling Xiao said to Li Dequan again at this time: "Li Dequan, give them some more silver, and send them back to Sanhe County quickly. "

The man was a little surprised when he heard this, and he quickly waved his hand and said, "Young master, this is unavoidable. It is a great kindness for you to pay for the meal for us. If you return the money now, let me go back here. Sanhe County, I'm afraid I won't be able to pay the money in a while."

"Don't worry, you won't be allowed to pay back the money. You just need to send a message to County Magistrate Zhang of Sanhe County, telling him to come to Liuzhou as soon as possible!"
