Chapter 447 - 447: Boy in the Alley



When Jian Qingqing received these letters, her heart was warm. She had also written many replies, but the messengers who sent letters from the Capital to the border were specially sent to the Emperor for urgent matters, so she rarely had the opportunity to send them.

There was a thick pile of letters that had not been sent out. Taking advantage of this opportunity, she handed the letters to Lin zhiqing and ignored his teasing. Jian Qingqing said, “Thank you for this.”

Lin zhiqing shook his head and smiled. “You’re welcome. I’ll take my leave first.”

Jian Qingqing nodded and waved her hand. “Have a safe journey.”

She heaved a sigh of relief as she watched the long line escort the hundreds of carriages onto the official road.

In addition to the porters who specialized in pushing carts, there were also more than two hundred people escorting them.

Some of these people were officers sent by His Majesty, but because it was a critical period of the war, most of the officers were on the battlefield, so he could not send many officers.

The rest of the group were the bodyguards that Jian Qingqing had specially hired. These bodyguards often traveled North and South and had more experience. They knew where the mountain bandits were and were more sensitive to danger. It would be safer to have them escort them. It was not until the end of the line turned around the corner that Jian Qingqing got on the carriage and left.

When they passed by a remote alley, Jian Qingqing faintly heard someone’s cry for help.

She frowned and stopped the carriage. Then, she walked in the direction of the sound with the guards.

In the depths of the alley, a teenager was being punched and kicked by two fierce-looking people. The young man was crying for help while cursing the two people.

“This Young Master will definitely not let you off! I dare you to hit me again! Ah, help! Don’t hit me…”

“Let’s see if you still dare to escape. I’ll beat you to death!”

Jian Qingqing frowned. No matter what the teenager had done, he should not have been beaten like this.

“Stop!” she shouted.

The two men glanced at Jian Qingqing and were a little afraid of the guards behind her. They did not want to get entangled with her. They restrained their expressions and lowered their heads. “Miss, this is my child. If he doesn’t listen to us, well teach him a lesson. We’re really not bad people.”

Jian Qingqing looked at them with a frown, not knowing if she believed them or not.

The young man whose mouth was covered by the other person struggled violently, whimpering as he tried to speak.

“Then let him speak,” Jian Qingqing said.

The man frowned and cursed in his heart. Then, he said, “Miss, this kid will definitely be resentful of us for beating him up. He’ll definitely talk nonsense when the time comes, so there’s no need to let him dirty your ears.”

Jian Qingqing asked with interest, “Oh? What did he do to deserve such a beating?

The man was a little embarrassed. He hesitated for a while before saying, “The boy stole money from home and played with it. I know that Miss doesn’t care about this little money and thinks it’s unnecessary, but to us poor people, that money is equivalent to half a year’s livelihood. So we hit him a little harder in anger. We had no choice. We did it for his own good. If we don’t teach him a big lesson now, he may cause trouble in the future. But he’s still young and doesn’t understand our good intentions, so he hates us.”

Jian Qingqing seemed to be very interested in this matter. She smiled and asked, “Then where do you live? Since the money is gone, then forget it. Don’t hit him. Please take me to your house to take a look. If you really are in such a difficult situation, I will help you..”
