The real Tian Ergeng glanced at Cheng Qingfeng fiercely.He reluctantly threw the broken gold into Cheng Qingfeng's hands, he didn't feel sorry for his gold, the dignified Jinyi guards commanded the envoy to lack this little money, he just hated Cheng Qingfeng very much, if you want to ask the reason, there is really no reason, but this guy is not happy.Cheng Qingfeng took the broken gold, feeling the heavy feeling coming from the palm of his hand, he was overjoyed, and he was almost moved to tears.Don't look at the gold that Tian Ergeng took out, but now it is the Ming Dynasty, and there is no large inflow of silver from the Americas, and the wealthy merchants have the habit of storing gold and silver.Therefore, the purchasing power of gold and silver in this era is quite strong, and such a few small pieces of gold are enough for Cheng Qingfeng to eat and drink well in Shenjing City for several months.Seeing Cheng Qingfeng accept the gold, Chongzhen ordered Jinyi Wei Fanzi to send this guy to his new residence, and told Cheng Qingfeng to rewrite the form for Fanzi to bring back.Cheng Qingfeng was satisfied and thanked him for his kindness.Sending Cheng Qingfeng away, Chongzhen saw that it was still early, and he walked around in Shenjing City casually.Although the weather is quite cold now, the streets are bustling with people, and although most of the pedestrians are still dressed in shabby clothes, there are no homeless people in the city.Nowadays, the guards in Shenjing City are very strict, and the entry and exit of personnel need to be strictly checked, and all the displaced people are gathered to work and exchange work for food.Chongzhen nodded with satisfaction.He suddenly smelled the aroma of roasted sweet potatoes, which not only evoked Chongzhen's gluttony, but also reminded him of his memory.At this time, the streets and alleys of Huaxia have long been fragrant with sweet potatoes, the price is cheap, peeling off the skin, steaming, taking a bite, fragrant.Tian Ergeng saw Chongzhen staring at a roasted sweet potato stall in a daze, and immediately stepped forward, "Your Majesty, I'm going to buy you a few sweet potatoes" Chongzhen nodded.Soon, Tian Ergeng came back with a few fragrant roasted sweet potatoes, and looked at Chongzhen as if he was invited."
Peel off the sweet potato and follow me."
Yes?
Although I don't know what kind of tune Chongzhen plays, Tian Ergeng didn't talk much, but just followed Chongzhen's words and honestly peeled the sweet potato.Chongzhen took a deep breath of the aroma of roasted sweet potatoes, and then walked forward contentedly.At this time, he suddenly found that there was a pair of men and women holding something in the corner in front of him, and Chongzhen didn't care, just glanced at it and stopped paying attention.The man and woman stopped when they reached a stinking ditch, and the man snatched the package from the woman's arms and threw it into the ditch.I don't know what kind of hatred he has for this broken package, and he didn't forget to spit at the stinky ditch after throwing it away.The woman covered her face and crouched down and began to cry.Chongzhen was wondering all of a sudden, a cry came over,, it was a baby that the man threw down just now!
Chongzhen only felt that his blood was surging, he rushed over, jumped into the stinky ditch in one fell swoop, endured the filthy breath, and fished out the broken package that the man threw down.Chongzhen carefully opened the package, revealing a wrinkled baby, the baby was very small, estimated not even five pounds, and his eyes couldn't be opened.The most frustrating thing is that the little baby still has blood stains on its body, as well as amniotic fluid, and even the umbilical cord has not been cut, and it is wrapped around the baby.Chongzhen also found that there were still many baby bones in this stinky ditch, and the small bones were lying on the ground silently, as if they were telling something?
And at this time, the little baby in Chongzhen's arms.Probably it hurt from a fall.It could also be that the little baby was hungry and opened its mouth helplessly and cried, with tears all over its face.Chongzhen hugged the little baby in his arms and coaxed it clumsily, but the little baby didn't buy it, and was still crying hoarsely.The man and woman by the stinking ditch were stunned.It took a while to react."
Who are you?"
The man's face was fierce, and he said viciously to Chongzhen, "Where did you come from, the dog slave actually dared to meddle with the affairs of labor and management" Chongzhen held the baby and walked over step by step.He stared at the man coldly, "Why abandon the baby" The man glanced at Chongzhen with disdain, and scolded, "Aren't you a fool and you still need a reason to lose a child?"
It's just a loss of money, it's a loss, it's a loss, what's the big deal" Yes, it's a baby girl.Chongzhen used to read history books and found that the phenomenon of abandonment of female babies was very common in ancient times.Even the rich and noble families are reluctant to raise more daughters, and each family has more than two daughters, and the baby girls born later will definitely be abandoned.There is also an abandoned baby tower in the local area.All the abandoned baby girls were left to fend for themselves in the tower, which was full of bones and miserable.Chongzhen used to think that these were all lies, children are too late to love their parents, who would abandon their children in frenzy, but now he has seen the abandonment of children with his own eyes.When this man saw that Chongzhen actually picked up the child, he immediately became angry, he waved his fist, and was just about to teach this nosy guy a lesson.Suddenly, a group of fierce brocade guards rushed over and subdued the man in a few clicks.Tian Ergeng wiped the cold sweat from his forehead.Chongzhen's behavior just now was too outrageous, if the story of the dignified king jumping down the stinky ditch to save the baby spread, what face would he have to live?
A crime of ineffective protection is enough for him to stink for 10,000 years."
Your Majesty!"
Tian Ergeng hurriedly knelt on the ground, "The lowly guards are not effective, please forgive me!"
”Chongzhen turned around and handed the little baby to the brocade guard on the side, and this time he hurriedly picked up the little baby.Chongzhen clapped his hands and smiled, "Don't be afraid, big brother, let's continue to talk about this child, right?"
”"Spare your life" The man who was vicious just now was almost scared to death, he cried, "The adults spare their lives, the little ones are just poor at home and can't afford to raise children, so they have to abandon her, and the adults and the little ones are guilty." ”Chongzhen looked at the fine silk cloth clothes on his body, as well as the silver hairpin on the head of the woman next to him, the silver bracelet on his hand, and the gold pendant on his ear.immediately judged that these two people belonged to medium-sized families, and they should not worry about food and clothing."
Presumptuous!"
Chongzhen shouted, "You can't afford to raise children, but you can wear gold and silver, and you look like a dog, but you only wrap the child in a torn package." ”The woman next to her also knelt down.She cried and cried, "My lord spares his life, my man is also forced to do so, there are already ten girls in our family, and if he doesn't give birth to a son, he will be laughed at when he goes out." ”
