Chapter 179 - Encountering Corruption

The old woman in the house was warm-hearted. She watched as they soaked through and brought clean coarse clothes.

"Thank you, Auntie!" Wei Qing sincerely thanked her.

The old woman sighed, "It has been raining for days and there is nothing to eat at home. I'm afraid you will have to take care of it!"

Wei Qing smiled at her, "It's already good to have a place to shelter from the rain."

With a worried expression, the old woman let out another heavy sigh and closed the door.

Xiao Qingqian coughed twice, "In the past, these kind of small injuries were nothing to this king!"

Wei Qing glared at him, "After journeying for many days, coupled with the fact that your liver is on fire, your food is not good, your immunity will inevitably be weakened. There is another reason, the Awakening Dan in your body! "

Hearing the three words "Awakening Dan", Xiao Qingqian's expression darkened even further. He clenched his fists even tighter as creaking sounds came from his joints.

Wei Qing cast a sidelong glance at him, "Can you change out of your wet clothes yourself?"

Xiao Qingqian was just about to say "no," when Wei Qing said again, "The temperature has already dropped, so it probably won't affect anything. Change it yourself!"

She threw it on his head.

Xiao Qingqian unhappily tore off his clothes, and turned to glare at her: Where are you going to change?

Wei Qing coughed lightly, "My body is healthy, it's fine!"

A trace of an inexplicable smile actually surfaced on his ashen face. "You are this king's wangfei!"

The implication of his words was that changing clothes here was a matter of course.

Wei Qing looked at him with a smile that was not a smile, "So what? Must I change my clothes in front of you? "

Xiao Qingqian slightly raised his brows, "Could it be that you have other choices?"

"I can give you a shot to stun you, then …" The smile on Wei Qing's face widened.

"And then what?" A hint of interest appeared in Xiao Qingqian's eyes.

Wei Qing did not continue speaking. For some reason, that handsome face of Chu Yin's quickly flashed through her mind.

Seeing the smile on her face slowly disappearing, Xiao Qingqian thought that he would probably think of Chu Yin again, and the fire of jealousy in his heart started to rise.

Wei Qing took her dry clothes out of the room and found another room to change. As she was preparing to go back, she suddenly saw a small figure running away quickly.

She frowned and chased after him.

"Grandmother!" The little guy called out crisply.

The old woman quickly came out, and her expression immediately darkened, "Kid, did you do something wrong?"

"Grandma, I didn't. I just wanted to see if big brother had anything to eat, but …" "But she's a big sister."

The old woman gave him a slap, "What do I usually tell you? You actually dared to peek at a girl changing her clothes! "

Wei Qing's eyes were wide opened, she did not expect the old lady to look at her with such a peaceful gaze, and attack her so viciously. It was clearly that Gouyu had peeked at her to change her clothes, but at this moment, she actually felt extremely apologetic. Therefore, she hurried forward to grab the old woman's wrist.

"Miss, I am truly sorry. Kampa's young, he really doesn't intend to see Miss change her clothes! " The old granny immediately apologized to Wei Qing.

Wei Qing looked at the wronged Koga and asked the old lady some questions.

When he returned to his room again, Xiao Qingqian had already changed into dry clothes. Seeing her anxious and worried expression, and after tormenting for a long time, he couldn't help but be suspicious, "What happened?"

Wei Qing looked at him, "I have a feeling."

"Speak!"

He frowned, wondering why people who used to be straightforward were suddenly stuttering today.

"I'm afraid we've met some corrupt officials!"

"Hmm?" Xiao Qingqian was even more confused.

"When I changed my clothes earlier, aunt's grandson …"

After listening to Wei Qing talk about what happened just now, Xiao Qingqian's face became even darker and darker, "You're peeping at a woman to change her clothes at such a young age?"

The corner of Wei Qing's mouth twitched speechlessly, "I'm talking about the matter of corrupt officials over food. Why are you paying attention to this Goudan?"

Xiao Qingqian's face darkened, "This king will naturally investigate the issue of being a greedy official. The problem now is such a small child, to not learn to peek at a woman and change her clothes so easily!"

Wei Qing also frowned, "You really have a screw loose!"

"Wei Qing!"

Xiao Qingqian was really angry, regardless of whether this little child understood anything about the affairs of a man and a woman, he felt that all his belongings were being violated, angry and jealous.

Wei Qing was too lazy to waste his breath on him. It was obvious that the treatment of the disaster was more troublesome now, but he could only be petty about this matter of Goudan.

The two of them looked at each other for a moment, then Xiao Qingqian broke the silence, "Continue."

"What else?" She snapped at him with a knife in her eyes, "I made it clear earlier!"

"You mean secretly?"

"Yes!"

Since he was getting down to business, she naturally had to cooperate.

"Then go and ask around." Xiao Qingqian said.

"You don't need to say that?" As he finished speaking, his stomach let out a rumbling sound. Wei Qing's face was filled with distress as she muttered to herself, "Why is it only thinking of medicine?"

Xiao Qingqian stared straight at her, feeling that regardless of whether he was angry or happy, Wei Qing was getting cuter and cuter.

"There's no food left at home?" Xiao Qingqian was in disbelief.

"The rain has been pouring down for days now, and the people in these villages are having a hard time everyday. I really don't know how those corrupt officials are able to restrain them!"

Seeing her angry look, Xiao Qingqian also fell into deep thought.

The royal father had always cared about the affairs of the people, and had always emphasized the people. However, he didn't expect that there would still be so many people who couldn't eat their fill and couldn't wear their clothes!

I'm afraid that if these things were to spread to royal father's ears, his father would be so furious that he would become angry.

After resting for a night, and Wei Qing bid farewell and left the place early the next morning.

"You can do it?" Wei Qing was a little worried about him.

"Are you concerned about This King?" Instead of answering, he asked a question.

Wei Qing scoffed, "If there's any more problems on your side of the road, I'm not sure if I can help you!"

Xiao Qingqian couldn't help but raise his hand. Seeing that his hand was about to land on her face, and seeing the disgust in her eyes, he placed his hand on her shoulder once again.

"Don't worry!"

Because Xiao Qingqian's injuries were quite good, he took her flying along the way and quickly arrived at a nearby town.

Wei Qing and Xiao Qingqian looked at each other, and the two queued up to receive their porridge.

Looking at the two bowls of porridge, which could be counted clearly by counting the grains of rice, Xiao Qingqian felt fury raging in his heart.

He believed that Chen Cheng and the others had come here before and distributed the relief food. He never thought that it would be such a thin bowl of porridge!
