The General Is As Urgent As Law

-Xiangcheng, the capital of King Xuande in the 17th year of Mande-

It was the twelfth lunar month of winter, and there was heavy snow in the city. Under the eaves of someone's house, a beggar was leaning against the wall and sitting on the ground. He was motionless, as if he had merged with the snow.Passers-by were in a hurry, and no one wanted Xue Tian to stay outside, even if they saw it, they would probably ignore it.

Mr. Pianpian passed by with a paper umbrella in his hand, and he knew he was of noble birth just by looking at the fox fur on his shawl.At the foot of the emperor, in the royal capital, must be the son of an official noble family.When he walked past the beggar, he unexpectedly took two extra glances.

He stopped, thought for a moment, sighed, and then took another step to leave.

I don't know how many beggars like this have been seen on weekdays, and he has never cared about them.But with such heavy snow, I'm afraid they will freeze to death on this street.Just as he was thinking, the fox fur on his shoulder seemed to be grabbed by someone behind him and fell off.He had already walked a few steps, and as soon as the fox fur left him, he shivered: "Oh! It's really cold!" He couldn't help complaining.Looking back, the fox fur fell on the ground, and the beggar actually moved, just looking aside, his messy hair covered half of his face.He was about to bend down to pick up the fox fur, but saw the beggar grabbed the fox fur extremely quickly and put it on himself.

……never mind.

Think of it as showing mercy and saving a life.Besides, the beggars have already put them on, and it is really impossible for him to ask for them to wear them on himself.He thought, shook his head and planned to leave.

In the end, the beggar grabbed the corner of his clothes without knowing what to do.

"What are you going to do?"

The beggar raised his head, but he was stunned—the beggar smiled at him with his dirty face upturned, his lips were blue with cold, this smile looked a little scary.

"Old...old brother..." After only two words, the beggar seemed to have exhausted all his energy, but he was still smiling, "Give me something to eat..."

He didn't want to pay attention to it at all, he stretched out his hand and tugged at his clothes, wanting to leave, but the beggar was quite strong, grabbing him tightly, as if he would not let him go.He had no choice but to bend down slightly, forcefully broke the beggar's hand, and was about to leave.

This time the beggar didn't grab the hem of his clothes anymore... I saw the beggar got up and followed him tremblingly. The fox fur was still on his body, which really didn't match his ragged clothes.

The beggar followed all the way, and he never looked back.But he couldn't ignore the fact that there was a beggar following him all the way from the north of the city to the south of the city.

This beggar is really...inexplicable.

Seeing that he was about to reach his residence, he couldn't bear it any longer. He frowned and turned around suddenly, looking at the beggar.The beggar was frightened by his sudden movement, and stood there in panic.The beggar's clothes had a big tear at his knees, exposing his frozen red knees, looking pitiful.But as soon as he regained his composure, he smiled at himself again, very silly.

"What are you going to do?"

"Brother, here, give me something to eat..."

"The fox fur is all for you, to be honest, don't be too greedy!" He said this angrily to the beggar, then turned and continued walking.Out of the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of the beggar still following him with his head down.

It's just too annoying.Thinking to himself, he took out two pieces of broken silver from his belt, turned around and stuffed them into his hand again: "Take it, get out."

This time, the beggar should leave.

By the way, who would take food with them in this snowy day?

The beggar immediately stuffed the silver into his pocket, and continued to smirk at him: "I want some, I want some food."

"Then you pay me back the money."

"I can't...give me something to eat..."

"Get out now."

Not wanting to waste any more time talking with this beggar, he immediately quickened his pace.

The beggar actually followed, saying as he followed, "Slow down, slow down...it's cold, I can't keep up."

In this way, the beggar followed him to his mansion.

There were four servants standing at the gate of Jiang's mansion. When they saw him, they immediately opened the door and saluted him: "Young Master." He nodded slightly and entered the door.The beggar behind him actually wanted to follow him into the door, but was immediately stopped by the servant.

"Go and go, don't even look at this place." Jia Ding said impatiently.

"I, I was with him..."

"Don't Pi, that's my young master, hurry up and go!" The servant pushed him, probably because he had been frozen for too long and had no strength, so he fell down.The servant took a closer look and said, "This is my young master's fox fur. I have given you the fox fur, but you still want to enter Jiangfu. Don't go too far!"

The beggar fell to the ground, stupefied for a moment, and then burst into tears with lightning speed.

"Yaoshou! Young Master Jiang bullied the beggar! My legs were broken! Doctor, where is the doctor!" The beggar cried and howled, and his speech continued intermittently, fluently.

He felt a raging fire burning in his chest.He strode up to the beggar, grabbed his tattered collar, and said in a low voice, "You'd better accept it as soon as you see it, and don't push yourself... You're still wearing my fox fur, don't you?" Think it over, it’s me hitting you, or you stealing!”

The beggar stopped talking instantly, and smiled at him rascally again.The two were so close that he could see the beggar's face clearly.Although his face was covered with dirt, it still couldn't hide the heroic spirit between his brows.It's a pity that he is a beggar with such an appearance.

"But you won't."

"Why?"

"I'm a beggar, and you are a nobleman."

"I think you are just touching porcelain, begging to be beaten!"

"Then I'll keep calling." He was so angry at seeing that dead face, he still wanted to laugh. "You give me something to eat, and I'll leave after eating."

He let go of his hand, and the beggar sat down on the ground again, then waved helplessly, motioning for the servant to come over: "Take him to the woodshed and give him something to eat."

"Yes."

After saying that, he ignored the beggar behind him and entered the mansion.

"Good people live in peace!"

The Jiang family is also a well-known and prestigious family in Xiangcheng, the capital of the kingdom. It is said that Mr. Jiang started as a jeweler and became a big family today.The Jiang family has two sons, the eldest son is named Ye, and the second son is named Fang.

Jiang Ye has always had a bad temper and no kindness, and today he was even more upset by this little beggar.That fox fur is a gift, and he likes it very much, but it is really boring to be occupied by annoying beggars like this.He wondered if he wanted to get the beggar back, but the beggar's brazenness was astonishing, and he probably wouldn't agree to exchange it for another jacket.Furthermore, the clothes worn by beggars, even after washing, always gave Jiang a dirty feeling.

I can't think of a result, but I hope the beggar can keep his word and leave after eating.

He never wanted to see the beggar again.

The next day.

Jiang Ye got up in the morning and changed his clothes, ready to go to the lobby to have breakfast, when he just stepped out of the room, he saw a man in servant clothes sweeping the floor in the yard in front of his room.Normally, Jiang would not even be able to look at it, but since he got up this morning, he had a little ominous premonition, as if by accident, he took an extra look at the underdog, and ordered, "Raise your head and let me have a look. "

The man immediately raised his head, with a flattering smile on his face: "Morning, young master!"

Although his face was clean and his hair was well tied back, he still recognized it at a glance—isn't this the annoying beggar who received a thousand knives? !

"you……!"

"I'm the new servant yesterday, my name is Wei Lin, the Lin of Qilin!"

"I didn't ask what your name is, so you just get out of here."

"Wow, are you so ruthless?" Wei Lin looked at Jiang Ye with a broom, and Jiang Ye was uncomfortable with his staring eyes, but Wei Lin didn't know it, or he was sloppy.

"Who allowed you to stay?!"

"It's your mother."

"You still dare to curse people?!"

"It's your mother, Madam Jiang."

"..."

Jiang also only felt that it must be bad luck to meet such a beggar, and he was so angry that his heart, liver, spleen, stomach and kidneys ached.Thinking about it carefully, I shouldn't have seen this guy yesterday and let him go into the mansion to eat something. I didn't expect this beggar to be like a dog's skin plaster, and I couldn't shake it off.

With a stomach full of anger, Jiang couldn't eat early, but he couldn't break the rules, so he could only sit in the lobby and drink a few mouthfuls of porridge without taste.Mr. Jiang sat in the main seat with a worried face, Mrs. Jiang didn't look very well, Jiang also thought about it, and felt that something bad happened at home, and it might be a bit inappropriate to ask the beggar about it.

His younger brother Jiang Mian is still asleep at this time of day.Jiang Fang is three years younger than him, only fifteen years old, smart but playful, because he is the second son, Mr. Jiang is also very fond of him.

Jiang also looked at him and pretended to be casual and asked, "What's wrong with Dad?"

"Alas...the border war has started again, and the imperial court wants to levy wages from big families like us." Mr. Jiang took a sip of porridge, and then said: "Especially our Jiang family, and several other big families, are all handpicked by the imperial court. Yes, you can’t hide from it.”

"We are also citizens of the Xuan Kingdom, and the war is imminent, so we should also donate wages." Jiang Ye said.

"You put it lightly, did the money come from the strong wind?" Master Jiang said displeased, "The imperial court seems to want to conscript soldiers, saying that the family is not the only child, and they all have to join the army. Once the conscription is announced, how dare you not donate money? Ah, I just wish I could donate more and spend money to buy one that won’t enlist.”

Jiang Ye said calmly: "As a man, I think it's good to go to the battlefield to make contributions."

"War? It's about wearing your head on your trouser belt, and you're only 15 years old!" Mrs. Jiang said.

"But let's pull it down, Fang'er has the temperament to fight?" Jiang is the first one who is not willing to let Jiang Fang avoid fighting. Jiang is definitely the number one in the degree to which his family dotes on Jiang Fang, "Then I will go." gone."

"Don't talk nonsense, you are the eldest son of our family, and you will inherit the family business in the future, how can you go through life and death." Mrs. Jiang gave Jiang Ye a look.

"I don't want to inherit the family business."

"Shut up and eat." Master Jiang said, but Jiang didn't dare to say any more, and ate breakfast in a proper manner.

Jiang also doesn't care about his family's business, and it's not just a day or two.In fact, it would be more accurate to say that I don't care about it, but that I hate it.Thinking about it this way, it would be a good choice to enlist in the army, at least without inheriting the family business.

After breakfast, Jiang didn't see the beggar either. He was full of thoughts about enlisting in the army. This would be a good way to escape from inheriting the family business, but he didn't know if the old man would spend money to eliminate the disaster.

He was pacing back and forth in the yard thinking about enlisting in the army, lost in thought, when a voice suddenly sounded next to his ears: "What's wrong, young master?"

"It's annoying." He replied casually.

"Wow, the troubles of the rich." He turned his head and saw that it was the beggar.

"How long are you going to wait?" The anger burned instantly, "Can you find out more?"

"Your mother, oh no, Mrs. Jiang asked me to stay. It's freezing cold, so please accept me." Wei Lin shrugged and rubbed Jiang Ye's shoulders as he spoke, with a coquettish look. expression, throwing an eyebrow.

"I think you want to be beaten." Jiang Ye hid back and scolded angrily.

Wei Lin still had that hippie smile on his face: "I don't beg for beatings, I beg for food. If you have any troubles, young master, let me make the villain happy."

"Speaking of your size, what do beggars know?"

"You know how to beg for food."

"I really want to hit you."

"Yaoshou... um." Jiang Ye covered his mouth to prevent him from shouting.

"If you keep nagging me, I'll throw it out for you immediately."

Wei Lin nodded like pounding garlic, and Jiang also felt a moistness in the palm of his hand, and was startled. Could it be the beggar's saliva, and he let go of his hand disgustingly in an instant.

Wei Lin was able to speak again, and suddenly became serious: "Is it a matter of imperial conscription?"

"Are you listening to the corner?"

"I'm just passing by, the simple kind."

"Do you know that you really owe a beating?"

"I know." Wei Lin said so confidently, Jiang Ye was speechless for a moment. "Master, you don't want to join the army?"

"wrong."

"The young master wants to join the army."

"..."

"Then come in, what's there to worry about, tsk tsk, rich people really have nothing to do."

"I changed my mind."

"Not enlisting in the army?"

"No, I'll throw you out now." As he spoke, Jiang grabbed Wei Lin by the collar and walked out.

"Hey, hey... I was wrong, young master!"

Jiang also let go, and asked, "Why did my mother leave you as a beggar? You don't think it's dirty."

"The beggar is good, the beggar is capable and content." Wei Lin counted the advantages of the beggar seriously, "So the young master is so pitiful, let the villain spend the winter."

While talking, it started snowing again.

This year's winter is really cold, people, it is inevitable that there will be a little bit of compassion for a while.Jiang also glanced at Wei Lin's face quietly. After washing it, he looked even more heroic. If he froze to death... Tsk tsk, that would be so cool.

"If you keep making trouble in my ear, I'll have someone carry it out for you."

"I know, I know." As soon as he heard that Jiang was willing to take him in, Wei Lin's attitude changed as if turning the pages of a book, and he immediately became impatient.

Jiang also felt that he was completely fooled.
