Chapter 869 With bad intentions
"There is more food this time than last time!"
Zhang Da discovered that there were more carriages transporting grain, and he suddenly burst into laughter.
Maybe I heard that Ganzhou City is giving out porridge. More and more refugees have arrived in recent days, and the amount of food consumed every day is not a small amount.
DeShou: "There is still as much food as before, and the carriage with more is filled with medicinal materials."
Hearing this, Zhang Da was stunned for a moment, then rushed to the carriage, opened the bag, and after confirming that the carriage was full of medicinal materials, he was really overjoyed, smiling, and his eyes turned red.
De Shou has been serving porridge with Zhang Da recently. He has heard a lot about him. He knows that his parents died shortly after he was born. He grew up walking around the streets and eating the food of hundreds of families. He is very interested in Ganzhou.
The people in this land of Wei have very deep feelings, so they couldn't help but stepped forward and patted him on the shoulder.
"Don't worry, the prince and his concubine are here, and they won't ignore those people outside the city." He said, pointing to a few medical apprentices beside the carriage.
"Well, these are all doctors. They will come with us to the city gate to help later."
There were not many doctors in Xiliang. Zhang Da knew that there were doctors accompanying him, so he quickly went over and grabbed the horse rope from the hands of the medical disciples: "I'll drive the carriage."
De Shou saw it and shook his head: "Okay, let's go quickly. It's almost time to give out porridge. If we go late, there might be trouble outside."
Zhang Da nodded quickly, pulled the carriage and followed De Shou. When he walked out of the gate, he looked back at the plaque of Xiao Mansion.
"Master Zhenfu must stay in Xiliang for a while."
Obviously, Zhang Da also believed that Xiao Yeyang, the prince of the royal family, would leave Xiliang soon.
......
In the mansion, Guyu and Lixia finished counting all the supplies and handed the list to Daohua.
After Daohua saw it, she couldn't help but frowned.
When she came this time, she was quite well prepared. She had brought all the supplies she needed. These things were only used in the Xiao Mansion, so they were definitely more than enough.
But now part of the food needs to be used to help the victims, and Xiao Yeyang also uses some, so it is not enough.
After thinking for a while, Daohua went to the study and soon came out with a note. Then she went to the front yard, found the secret guard raising the falcon, and handed the note to him: "Send the news back to the capital.
”
The secret guard didn't say anything, took the note, quickly tied it to the falcon's leg, and let the falcon fly.
Dao Hua silently counted the time. None of the grain harvested by Jingzhong Zhuangzi this year was sold. After Qin Xiaoliu received the news, he should be able to collect the grain soon, but if it was shipped, it would probably not be until February next year.
Daohua went back to her room and looked at the list of supplies again, and she was relieved to see that she could save money until the food arrived next year.
......
Liangdu, the commander of the capital.
A ferocious-looking, bearded man looked at the commander of the Wei capital with aggrieved expression: "Sir, didn't you say you wanted me to be the commander of the Ganzhou Guard?"
Wei Hongcai saw a rough man looking at him pitifully like a woman, and the corner of his mouth couldn't help but twitch: "I have already submitted your appointment to the court. If the court doesn't approve it, what can I do?"
Fan Tong suddenly lost his face: "Then can I still be a commander?"
Wei Hongcai looked at this warrior who had been following him, and knew that this guy was stubborn and had a headache: "The commander of the Ganzhou Guard is not that easy. Have you forgotten how Lao Zhou died?"
Fan Tong: "It's a pity that Lao Zhou died, but we are border generals, and guarding the territory is our duty. If one day I am like Lao Zhou, I will accept it."
"You..."
Wei Hongcai looked like he didn't know what to say to Fan Tong, and said directly: "Don't worry about being a commander, just go back and be your fellow commander of the Ganzhou Guard."
After saying that, there was silence for a moment.
"Well, what do you think of Ganzhou Wei's new governor?"
Speaking of the new governor, Fan Tong was extremely dissatisfied: "The new Xiao Yeyang is really very arrogant. He moved directly into the commander's mansion as soon as he arrived. On the first day he arrived, he rushed in
The guard station took out a letter of acceptance from the Governor's Office of the Fifth Army and said that he had taken over the Ganzhou Guard and asked us to cooperate with him."
"Sir, tell me, isn't it funny? He, who is just a fifth-level minister, actually makes us officials who are above him listen to his words. I'm really pissed off!"
Wei Hongcai frowned: "For Xiao Yeyang, you cannot just look at his rank. He is the son of the prince and the nephew of the current emperor."
Fan Tong snorted: "So what? I committed a crime and was demoted to Xiliang."
Wei Hongcai looked at Fan Tong: "Don't go against him. Xiao Yeyang is a pampered and pampered young man. We are so miserable in Xiliang. He won't be able to stay for long. Whatever he wants to do, let him do it. Wait until he leaves.
, we still have the final say in Xiliang."
Fan Tong nodded vaguely: "I listen to you, sir." He said, snorted, "When I came over, that boy was giving porridge outside Ganzhou City. I saw it, but I didn't remind him with a word.
."
"I want to see how much food he can come up with."
"We in Xiliang have the most difficult winter every year. When the people of Ganzhouwei hear the news about the porridge soup, they will definitely flock here. I am just waiting to see his joke."
Wei Hongcai smiled: "When you go back, you can spread the news along the way."
Hearing this, Fan Tong showed hesitation: "Isn't it bad to do this? Xiao Yeyang is a bit arrogant, but he can provide precious food to help the people, which shows that he is still a good person."
"The people of Ganzhou Wei alone are enough for him to eat a pot. There are too many people spreading the news along the way. He must not be able to handle it. How about forgetting it?"
Wei Hongcai smiled and shook his head: "You still don't believe that you are an idiot. Do you think that the prince's life is as miserable as ours? Let me tell you, the gold, silver and jewelry in his house may be piled up in piles."
"They came over and brought hundreds of carriages of supplies, didn't you see?"
Seeing the hesitation on Fan Tong's face, Wei Hongcai continued: "I asked you to spread the news along the way because I want to save those who can't survive. It's up to you whether you want to do it or not."
Fan Tong thought of the people who starved to death or froze to death in the snow, and he clenched his fists and said, "Okay, I'll do it."
"That's right. This way we are robbing the rich and giving to the poor. Wouldn't it be better if we could make Xiao Yeyang retreat when he faced difficulties?"
Before the smile on Wei Hongcai's face fell, his bodyguard hurried in with a letter: "Sir, this is an urgent letter."
Fan Tong's expression tightened: "Are the stubborn Xiliao people coming again?"
Wei Hongcai glanced sideways at Fan Tong, quickly opened the letter and read it. After a while, his face became ugly.
When Fan Tong saw it, he immediately became anxious: "Sir, are the Xiliao people really attacking again? Where are they? I'll go to support them."
Wei Hongcai threw the letter on the table: "It wasn't the people from Xiliao who came, but Xiao Yeyang led his men to kill a group of Xiliao cavalry."
Fan Tong was stunned, and hurriedly picked up the letter and read it. Then he clicked his tongue twice in amazement: "What about Xiao Yeyang? The Xiliao cavalry is the most difficult to deal with. He actually killed hundreds of people at once.
."
Wei Hongcai was not very happy. The Wei family had been stationed in Xiliang since the previous dynasty, and he did not want Xiliang to change too much.
He still has some connections in the capital, and he knows that Xiao Yeyang is a capable person, so he doesn't want him to stay in Xiliang longer.
"You have been out for almost half a month, and the Chinese New Year will be celebrated in a few days. Please go to Ganzhou Guard as soon as possible. Remember, don't forget to spread the news about Ganzhou City's porridge soup along the way."
Fan Tong suddenly stopped thinking: "Sir, let's forget it. If too many people go, it will be bad if something happens."
Wei Hongcai thought to himself that it would be better if something happened, so that he would have an honest reason to complain to the court and drive away Xiao Yeyang.
