Several children never knew how uncomfortable it was to kneel at the ancestral hall. Hutou carefully moved his knees, his legs felt numb, and his stomach was growling with hunger.

Fan Zijin came towards the morning light at this moment. He swept over the five children one by one and saw them bowing their heads one by one under his gaze, which made him satisfied.

It is important to teach children the truth, but corporal punishment is also very important. If these five boys could calm down and listen to them before?

Fan Zijin looked down at them and asked, "Can you hear what I'm saying now?"

The five boys nodded again and again, all looking at him timidly and pleadingly.

Fan Zijin was satisfied, and said in a calm voice, "Then you should start to reflect from now on, where did you go wrong this time, think about the dangers and possible consequences that Xiaobao will encounter when he runs away from the palace, and when you figure it out, just think about it. When do you start eating?"

Fan Zijin took out a piece of paper from his sleeve, threw it in front of Xiaobao, and said, "This is a letter from your father to you, take a look, this time, you broke his heart."

Taking the opportunity to educate a few boys is not only Fan Zijin's meaning, but also Qi Xiuyuan's meaning, these children are really lawless.

Little Treasure picked up the letter, his eyes gradually filled with tears, and the tears fell down drop by drop.

Xiaoxiong looked at him anxiously and asked in a low voice, "Brother Xiaobao, don't be sad, let's ask Uncle Huang to forgive you together."

Xiaobao shook his head, "Even if the royal father forgives me, I also hurt the royal father's heart and made him worry for a long time."

In the letter, Qi Xiuyuan asked Xiaobao, you said that your brothers would hurt the father's heart, so you don't want to hurt the father's heart, but now, you will not hurt my heart if you put yourself and your brother in danger ?

Qi Xiuyuan said: Father is very sad now.

Little Bear is tangled, not knowing how to comfort Little Treasure.

Xiaobao wiped away his tears and said, "It's our fault, even if the royal father doesn't agree, I can beg, I can convince him, I can even find an excuse to leave the capital, but I shouldn't leave the capital without telling me. do not."

Xiaoxiong scratched his head, rolled up his sleeves and wiped his tears, "Brother Xiaobao, don't cry, we will write a letter to Uncle Huang in a while to admit our mistakes, and we will never do this again next time."

Xiaobao nodded.

San Xiao knelt on the side while clutching his stomach, only to think that they were going to starve to death, and they all confessed their mistakes to the adults and begged for mercy.

The five children were taken to the flower hall. The table was filled with small steamed buns, rice porridge and delicate side dishes. Look at the good stuff on the table.

There were four adults sitting at the table.

Fan Zijin picked up the bowl and said, "Since you're here, let's watch it."

So the five children stood in a row and watched the four adults eat breakfast. San Xiaoxian couldn't help crying, looked at the adults eagerly, and sobbed softly: "Father, mother, I'm hungry... "

Fan Zijin put down the bowls and chopsticks, looked at them and asked, "Does it feel good to be hungry?"

The five children shook their heads together, and Fan Zijin said: "The road is dangerous, if Xiaobao runs away from home and encounters thieves or robbers and robs him of all his money, then he can only starve, you stay at home, follow daddy My mother is hungry, and my mother is distressed that you will give you something to eat, and when you are outside, when you can’t find your father and mother, you will cry so hard, who will care for you?”

Hutou Xiao looked at Xiao Bao with his mouth open, and sobbed: "Brother Xiao Bao is so pitiful, he is so hungry that no one cares."

Little lion assured: "Brother Xiaobao, don't worry, we will feed you first and then we will eat."

Xiao An squeezed between them and glared at them from left to right. The two children instantly knew that they had said something wrong, and immediately lowered their heads to admit their mistake.

Fan Zijin glanced at his son, snorted coldly, pointed to the rest, and said, "Eat."

The five children rushed up immediately, and Qi Wensu stood on the side completely at a loss.

Fan Zijin said: "Although you are young and you were exempted from punishment because you didn't know about it, but you didn't know how to persuade your brother along the way, so you are also wrong, so you will be punished for starving with them. Now the punishment is over, you Let's eat too."

Little Treasure didn't expect that he would also implicate his young second brother, so he grabbed a small steamed bun and stuffed it in his mouth, saying, "Brother, eat quickly."

Qi Wensu quietly moved to Mu Yangling's side with a small steamed bun, snuggled beside her, and gave Fan Zijin a frightened look.

Fan Zijin couldn't help slandering, could it be that he is a beast of a flood?

Mu Yangling couldn't help holding Qi Wensu beside him and sat down, and personally served him porridge and took care of him with breakfast.

After dinner, Fan Zijin went out with his six children, in the name of taking them to a deep understanding of his mistakes.

Qi Haoran hurriedly followed.

He first took the children to the base of the city wall to see the beggars squatting there, and he said: "Xiaobao, if there are no secret guards by your side, your father and the others will not be able to find you in time. If something goes wrong on the road, they will be you. The best end - beggars. Do you know what they eat, wear, and sleep every day?"

The faces of the six children gradually turned pale, and Fan Zijin continued as if he couldn't see it: "You are okay, you are already eight years old, and in a few years, even if you can't find your way back to the palace, you can find some simple work to support yourself, but your brother He is only four years old, what should he do? There is no doctor, no medicine, not even enough food and clothing, just a small cold can kill people."

"Little Bear, Xiao An, Hutou, Little Lion, what will happen to your hearts as accomplices at that time?"

Fan Zijin let the six children watch the beggars for a long time, then turned around and took them to see the prisoners in the prison of the government office, he said: "I said that being a beggar is the best end, and the second type is to fall into the hands of human traffickers. , do you know where the traffickers will sell you?"

Qi Haoran frowned slightly, wanting to say that he shouldn't irritate the child so much, but he met Fan Zijin's cold eyes, "They were never ordinary children, except for Xiao An, which of them is not the prince and grandson? Since the tiger head and the little lion are not afraid Of course, my son is not afraid."

In this era, human traffickers, except for a few who would resell them second-hand and send them to the people of today, are mostly sent to the brothel and other places for pickling. Most of the girls have no good end, let alone boys, most of them can't survive. Twenty, and others were sent to the palace to be castrated as eunuchs.

Fan Zijin is a prefect, and he is a businessman who knows some of the three religions and nine streams. He knows these things best.

Fan Zijin took them to see the traffickers so that they would know how they photographed children, lest they think everything would be all right with the help of the Huang Ren brothers and sisters. If there were no secret guards along the way to help clear some obstacles for them, they would be able to do that. Did you arrive in Guangzhou successfully?
