"Be bold!"
Soon after, when Qin Wei saw this, he suddenly turned into a wisp of "lightning", and Liu Qigang blocked his front in the blink of an eye.
Until now, Liu Qi has not moved.
It's not that he's not afraid, but that he has absolute trust in Qin Wei's skills.
He once said a long time ago that within five steps, no one can get close to the opponent unless he is using a concealed weapon.
"Qin Wei, don't kill him!"
Seeing Wei Qin's swift figure, the man in black was suddenly startled.
Ding!
The dagger collided with the long sword at Qin Wei's waist, creating a dazzling spark in the night.
Liu Qi could tell that the man in black was obviously stunned, maybe because Qin Wei was stronger.
This was the sword he used. If he had used the two maces he usually used, this man's dagger would have been shaken off long ago.
Quite brave.
The first fight with Qin Wei was not successful. He did not run away immediately. Instead, he came back with a dagger and killed him again.
Ding ding ding ding!
I have to say that this guy's skills are pretty good, and he was able to fight Qin Wei for seven or eight rounds.
But that’s as far as it goes.
When Qin Wei started to get serious, the man gradually became unable to resist.
In a few seconds, he could barely resist now, but he had no power to fight back.
Seeing that he was not Qin Wei's enemy, the man became anxious.
With a quick glance, he suddenly focused on Liu Qi.
Suddenly he jumped up, kicked against the wall, and turned around to stab Liu Qi.
"court death!"
Qin Wei shouted sharply!
There was a flash of sword light in his hand, and his body was at the man's side in an instant.
With just one strike of the sword, the man's dagger was knocked to the ground.
The man let out a cry of pain and immediately turned around, trying to escape towards the entrance of the alley.
How could Wei Qin give him a chance?
He kicked the man hard on the back.
Snapped!
The man did not fall directly on one side of his body. Liu Qi was afraid that he would escape, so he immediately pounced on him and pinned him directly under him.
Um?
What a soft thing!
While feeling it, Liu Qi pinched it a few more times.
His eyes suddenly widened, and then he realized where his hands were placed, and where this familiar feeling was brought to him.
It turned out that this person was actually a woman disguised as a man.
The woman was ashamed and angry. Even if she couldn't beat him, she still had to be humiliated by the person on her body, and she drank loudly.
"Let me go! I'll kill you! Dog Officer!"
Liu Qi stood up, not because of her words, but because he felt a little embarrassed, and he didn't mean to take advantage of her.
The woman was about to get up, but Qin Wei's sword was already placed on her neck, making her dare not move for a while.
At this time, there was a sudden sound outside the alley.
"Quick, quick! This is it!"
You don't need to guess to know that the patrol has arrived.
The movement just now probably attracted the surrounding people.
Seeing the desperate expression in the woman's eyes, Liu Qi sighed softly.
"Let her go."
Qin Wei was very surprised.
"Your Highness, let him go?"
"Listen to me and let go!"
There was no other way, the prince had said it a second time, so Qin Wei could only do it.
The woman said nothing, her eyes changed from despair to disbelief at this moment.
She stared at Liu Qi blankly for a few seconds, stood up quickly, took her dagger, and quickly disappeared into the night...
"What do you do?"
By this time, the patrol had arrived.
Qin Wei didn't say anything nonsense. He walked up to the man and showed his token.
"The prince is here! Don't be presumptuous!"
.......
After a while, Liu Qi and Qin Wei returned to Shi Kailin's house.
But this time, we entered through the main entrance, and Shi Kelin, Jia He, and other officials all came over.
"Your Highness, are you okay?"
Hearing that the prince was assassinated in an alley, Shikelin was already panicking.
"My king is fine."
Seeing that the prince was fine, he breathed a long sigh of relief.
Liu Qi did not explain how he and Wei Qin ended up on the street.
It's really embarrassing to spread the news.
He turned against the guest and asked questions immediately.
"Bold Schellin, I would like to ask you, what is going on with those beggars and disaster victims on the street?"
"You'd better tell me honestly, otherwise, I can take your head right now."
Plop!
Shi Kelin instantly knelt on the ground, his face looking bitter.
"Your Highness, this is all my fault!"
"Stop talking nonsense and tell me! What's going on?"
"Your Highness, in fact, those refugees and beggars have always been in the city, but they were all assigned to a special place by their subordinates."
"It's not because I show it to His Highness on purpose. It's really a helpless move. These refugees come from all over the place, and the beggars also come from some counties. They have no fixed place to live and they just follow wherever they go."
"If it was only a small number, the lower officials would be able to take care of them at their own discretion. But now, the number of them has reached a thousand, and the superiors will not give approval. If they are not registered, they can only be expelled outside the city. ."
"So, as a last resort, the petty official came up with this strategy. He secretly kept these refugees in the city, and then released them one by one after the approval documents arrived."
Speaking of this, Liu Qi continued to question.
"Then I ask you, why are their faces full of fear when I talk to them? What's the reason?"
Shi Kelin sighed softly.
"Your Highness, this is what I sent someone to explain to them."
"They are all black households. If they stay in the city, they are neglecting their duties. They can only be allowed to come out at night and walk around the city, and then return to the residence assigned to them by the official during the day."
"When someone asks them, they have already been told not to say anything. In order to avoid causing trouble, the official can only tell his subordinates and make some threats. Anyone who reveals his identity will be driven out of Jincheng."
Looking at it this way, not only was Shikelin not wrong, but he also did a great deed?
"Okay! Shi Kelin, I am going to see the victims now. You'd better tell the truth!"
After saying this, Liu Qi immediately sat up and yelled at Shi Kelin, who was still on the ground in a daze.
"Let's go!"
...
We arrived at a wasteland in the most remote part of Jincheng.
Here, there are many tents set up, surrounded by wooden fences.
Because it was already late at night, most of the people here had already rested, and only a few people were still wandering outside the door or around the tent.
I don't know who it was, but by the light of the fire, I suddenly saw the figure of Shi Kelin, and suddenly shouted.
"Everyone, get up! Master Shi is here, Master Shi is here to see us!"
Hurrah!
In the blink of an eye, countless people suddenly walked out of the tent.
There are beggars in rags, refugees covered in mud, the oldest needs a cane, and the youngest still needs to be in her mother's arms.
Seeing this scene, Liu Qi couldn't help but tremble slightly.
Behind such a prosperous Daqing, there are so many refugees in Jincheng, which is relatively close to Qingdu...
