851 Road Encounter

Of course, these are naturally common for Emperor Chongzhen, a soul from later generations. However, the density of people from the north to the south still makes Emperor Chongzhen feel a little moved.

Not only that, including the style of houses, many bricks and tiles in the south of the Yangtze River, and past business travelers, they also dressed decently. Even the farmers on the roadside still had good clothes. Compared with the north, they were simply two worlds.

Seeing this, Fang Zhenghua, who was with Emperor Chongzhen, couldn't help but sigh: "I really don't know the prosperity of the Ming Dynasty without coming to Jiangnan!"

"It would be great if there were more than one day, the people of Liaodong could live such a life." Liu Xingzuo also echoed with emotion.

Concubine Tian, ​​who was dressed as a man, controlled the horse speed freely. She followed Emperor Chongzhen, turned to look at the two of them, and then smiled and said, "When you arrive in Suzhou City, it's not too late for you to say this again!"

"Is it more prosperous than the capital?" Fang Zhenghua was a little surprised, and the surprised expression on his face was undoubtedly revealed.

Emperor Chongzhen admired the vitality of Jiangnan, and listened to them without interrupting. This harmonious atmosphere was also what he liked.

"That's not true." Concubine Tian smiled and shook her head, "But the prosperity of the capital is still different from the prosperity of Jiangnan. After you arrive, you can feel it immediately."

While they were talking, a carriage passed by, and the group stopped talking for a while. After the carriage passed, Concubine Tian smiled and said, "I saw that there was no carriage that had just passed by. If you were in the capital, you would probably have to go out for a fifth-rank official. But here it is not rare, so there is an ordinary gentry house."

When Liu Xingzuo heard this, he said in surprise: "There are six servants who accompanied the carriage just now. Is this an ordinary gentry's house?"

"It's almost the same!" Concubine Tian replied with a smile, then looked at Emperor Chongzhen, and saw that he was smiling, as if he was in a good mood. Then he continued to say to Liu Xingzuo, "If you don't believe it, send someone to ask."

Emperor Chongzhen felt Liu Xingzuo's gaze when he looked at him, so he turned to look at him and said with a smile: "Let's relax when you come out. If you don't believe it, go and ask. Don't scare others!"

When Liu Xingzuo heard this, he immediately turned his horse's head and rushed back to ask questions.

After a while, he rushed back. Fang Zhenghua was curious and asked immediately: "How is it?"

"As the wife said, his grandfather was just a juren, and there was no outstanding person." Liu Xingzuo replied with emotion.

When Emperor Chongzhen heard this, he interrupted and said, "It seems that this family is also rich. After this person becomes rich, he will think about enjoyment. Logically speaking, it is also a common human nature. But if they compare with each other and waste it, there will be a problem. The court is so short of money, and the people in the north are so poor, extravagant, and indulged in luxury and wealth, is unbearable!"

He had already noticed this situation from his usual memorials and chat information in the chat group. After hearing the questions and answers from Concubine Tian and Liu Xingzuo, he was also inspired.

The emperor's tone was immediately set. And it was reasonable, especially since they were all northerners, they felt a sense of empathy. For a moment, no one spoke again, and the atmosphere became a little cold.

At this time, it was already March, and it was rainy in the south. Although it had not rained these two days, some sections of the road were still a little muddy. For Emperor Chongzhen and his group, they were all riding horses, so there was no need to pay attention to this. But for the vehicles on the road, it had a little impact.

Not long after Emperor Chongzhen and his group walked, they saw a truck stuck in the mud, and the coachman who accompanied the car pushed and pulled. However, there may be many vehicles coming and going on this section of the road, and there were already deep marks on the road, which happened to be stuck in a pit. Several efforts failed.

Behind the truck, several carriages were blocked. However, no one came forward to help. A group of people stood by and watched, and even a few servants were still calling them blocking the road.

Seeing that there were more people, Fang Zhenghua, Liu Xingzuo and others followed closely, guarding Emperor Chongzhen and Concubine Tian without any trace. After getting closer, the people there were a little curious when they saw more than 20 cavalry coming. They looked at them for a while, but they did not say hello and were still talking to each other.

The truck could block other vehicles, but it had no effect on riding alone. After Emperor Chongzhen got close, he heard those chatting people talking about where to eat, how much money it cost, or how long it took to make a set of clothes. Now it is a bit old and embarrassed to wear it out. Whether they are bragging or this is true, it is difficult to tell for a moment, but it can be heard that they all want to suppress each other.

Emperor Chongzhen noticed that the truck almost pushed out the mud pit several times, but it was a little bit worse. If these people around could go up and help, they wouldn't have to get stuck there. But these people would rather chat, but there was no intention of taking action. At most, someone suggested that those guys should remove the goods first, and if they were not good, they would be cursing.

Seeing the guys sweating profusely, Emperor Chongzhen pointed his hand. Immediately, four plainclothes guards caught up from behind, jumped off their horses, and went to help push the cart regardless of the mud on the road.

When they jumped off the horse, stepping on the mud on the ground and splashed a little mud, the people nearby subconsciously avoided it, and a few even showed a hint of disgust, as if they had dirty my clothes, the way you could afford it? But they probably saw that there was more than 20 riders here and they were strong, so they didn't dare to speak out.

There were Jinyiwei plainclothes who came forward to help, and there were four at once, so they naturally pushed the truck out of the mud pit.

"Ding, achievement value +2, from Chen Youming."

“…”

The system prompted continuously, but Emperor Chongzhen did not accept the thanks from those friends. He had already passed by himself, and was completely in the style of doing good deeds without leaving a name. This also made Emperor Chongzhen's system prompts ring continuously.

A little farther away and no outsiders could hear it, Fang Zhenghua said a little shamelessly: "Why don't these people help with a bunch? They just have a hand, but they have time to chat with each other!"

"They think their shoes are dirty." Liu Xingzuo could tell at a glance and replied to Fang Zhenghua, "It's still the master who is right. There is a problem with the people here."

Emperor Chongzhen heard this and didn't say anything. He hoped that he had said it was wrong before!

The recommended ticket is 800 more, just as this one is worth, so I still have 3 more discounts.
