"How come Huan'er doesn't act coquettishly with his mother? He still treats her as an outsider!" Mrs. Pei cried when she cried, and rolled up her handkerchief to wipe away her tears.

"Being...acting like a baby?" Lin Zhihuang, a strong woman, said that this is a bit difficult! Can she get orders by acting like a baby? Can she expand her business? Can she manage her subordinates well? Can she defeat her competitors? No! So she

I have never learned this skill.

Seeing Lin Zhihuangmu's stunned look, Mrs. Pei burst out laughing, "Just asking for my mother! How come you can't even act coquettishly at your daughter's house? What kind of life did you live in Shengjing?"

Did you get through all the difficulties by yourself? My poor child, oh oh oh..."

As he spoke, Mr. Pei became sad again, hugged Lin Zhihuang tightly, and wiped away tears again. Oh my god! His face changed so quickly. He would laugh and cry for a while, and Lin Zhihuang couldn't bear it.

Lin Zhihuang: Doesn’t this cheap lady’s mood change so quickly? She thinks too much. When encountering difficulties, she will not force herself. She will only think about how to solve the problem. It is better to seek help from others than to ask for yourself. She should calm down and think of countermeasures.

, the difficulty can be solved naturally.

"I want to change two maids." A request? Simple.

As soon as Lin Zhihuang said this, the two little maids serving behind him turned pale with fright and immediately knelt down on the ground to plead guilty.

Mrs. Pei stopped crying, gritted her teeth and stared at the two maids kneeling on the ground: "Are these two little hooves looking down on you?"

Lin Zhihuang quickly denied: "They serve me very well. I want older maids. They are too young and many things are inconvenient."

Mrs. Pei withdrew her gaze from glaring at the two maids, and scolded them seamlessly: "What do you know, girl? The older maids will not be able to serve for long, and as soon as they are used to it, they will get married. These two younger ones will not be able to serve for long.

, I can wait for you longer, and when the time comes, I can take you out when you go out, and you will be your confidant."

Ms. Pei paused for a moment before speaking, covered her face with teasing and continued: "If your husband is seduced by some goblin in the future, you can also assign them to your husband so that he can take care of those little goblins for you."

What? Is this the maid arranged for her future husband?

Arranging another woman for his man? Lin Zhihuang blushed when he thought about it. But Pei thought she was talking about her future husband and was embarrassed.

Mrs. Pei patted her hand lovingly and continued: "No one taught you these things before, but now you are here with me. Don't be shy, you will get married eventually. You have to learn these things, and I promise to teach you well."

You, I guarantee that you will live comfortably in this back house from now on and handle those 'things' easily."

Don’t, don’t learn, don’t want to!

Lin Zhihuang quickly interrupted Pei's words and said in an unreasonable manner: "I want to replace my maid with an older one. Mother, don't you even obey me on this matter?"

"It's just two maids! If I want to change my sister, I can change it for her. When I was in Shengjing, that poisonous woman Zhong must have teased my sister a lot in the past. Look at my sick body and bones! That's all I need.

Mother, why don't you accept her request?" Lin Zhihui didn't know when he had finished solving the 'big thing', so he came over.

"It's up to you, it's up to you!" both children said, and Mrs. Pei immediately compromised.

"Grandma Luo, sort out all the children in the house who are between the ages of fourteen and twenty, and bring them to the aunt's yard tomorrow morning, and let her choose the ones she likes." Mrs. Pei ordered the old woman behind her.

After achieving his goal, Lin Zhihuang gave Lin Zhihui an approving look. He thought that his new brother, who was like a bull, was not bad. He decided to get along well with each other in the future, and those who were on the same front should protect him.

Lin Zhihui also felt that his sister was as delicate as a green wicker, so she wanted him to protect her and vowed not to let others bully her.

The atmosphere in the yard was warm, but suddenly there was a sound like a slaughtering pig howling for mercy outside the yard.

"Madam, madam! Have mercy on me! This old slave stole it because he couldn't survive. Please spare me!"

Mrs. Pei stopped smiling at her children, raised her head and shouted loudly: "Who is making a noise outside?"

Is it a compulsory course for a mistress to change her face immediately? Lin Zhihuang was amazed when he saw it.

"Madam, we just caught Mrs. Wang who was working in the kitchen and she dared to hide food so boldly! What do you think we should do?"

Mrs. Wang was dragged into the courtyard by two healthy servants, like a dog being dragged to death.

Jian Pu threw Mrs. Wang to the ground, and the disgraced Mrs. Wang immediately knelt on the ground and began to cry.

"The old slave couldn't live anymore, so he did this! Today, the grain outside was sold for one penny per dou of grain. The old slave's man was paralyzed on the bed, and the whole family was counting on the old slave's little wages! Now the slave's little wages

If we can't buy three measures of food, the old slave and his family really can't survive! Kind lady, please spare me this time! I won't dare to do it again!"

One coin per dou of grain? Lin Zhihuang frowned, wouldn't this price of grain trigger a civil uprising?

Lin Zhihuang began to face the environment she was in. What dynasty was this? The words on the previous official document did not belong to any font in ancient China. Therefore, the history she knew well in her memory should not be of much help to her.

This is a strange dynasty.

And now that the price of food outside is so artificially high, it may not be a sideways allusion to the end of a dynasty.

Lin Zhihuang had a keen sense of crisis. If the imperial court in the era of imperial power was coming to an end, how long could this body maintain its current wealth?

"Stealing is stealing! Luo Po, take her to the Yamen. Whatever crime is punishable by Daji law for stealing, she will be punished as such! Take her out to me!"

"No!" The two healthy servants crossed their hands and saluted. One of them blocked Mrs. Wang's mouth with quick hands and feet, and the other grabbed Mrs. Wang's hair and dragged her away.

"Slow down!" Lin Zhihuang had something to ask.

The two healthy servants stopped their movements and looked at the mistress Pei. Mrs. Pei was surprised that Lin Zhi suddenly made a sound, but she nodded, and then the two healthy servants let go of Mrs. Wang.

"You said the price of food outside is now one penny per dou of food? Then why don't you escape from the city and return to the countryside?"

Madam Wang burst into tears: "Back to Madam, there are thousands of refugees outside the city. There are only those who want to enter the city, but who want to go out of the city? Only when you leave the city do you really have no way of living!"

What? There are thousands of refugees outside the city? Lin Zhihuang felt as if he had fallen into an ice cave for an instant.

How many soldiers are there to maintain law and order in this city? If the refugees attack the county, can these soldiers in the city really stop them? Even if the refugees are honest and obedient, the price of food in the city is so high that if food prices are not regulated, they will not be able to survive.

The common people in the city can immediately become a mob. If this continues, chaos in the city is not far away.

How did the original county magistrate manage the county? How could he allow so many refugees to stay outside the city without properly resettling them?

Suffering from internal and external troubles, she is now close to death as a member of the ruling class that needs to be overthrown.

She was wrong. What she opened was not a house fight dungeon, but an escape dungeon in hell mode. How terrible is it for refugees to rush into the city? You can imagine it with reference to the horror level of The Walking Dead. When there are more people and chaos begins, the narrow streets in ancient times will be like this.

Those with narrow gates, not to mention whether they will be hacked to death by the refugees rushing into the city, just crowding and trampling can kill people.

"What's wrong? Madam, your face turned pale suddenly?" Ms. Pei touched her daughter's face worriedly.

"But this bitch scared you? Mother will deal with him now!"

Lin Zhihui was more direct. He stepped forward and kicked Aunt Wang over.

Aunt Wang didn't dare to scream this time, for fear of being gagged again, so she quickly got up and lay down again. She was so frightened that she couldn't help but kowtow and beg for mercy.

"Mom, I'm fine, let her go. Drive her out of the house and let her go. It will be a good deed."

According to the laws of Daji, anyone who commits theft will be punished with a forty stick, his face stabbed, and he will be exiled eight hundred miles.

Aunt Wang felt like she was being pardoned, she kowtowed with tears of gratitude, and kept saying words of gratitude to Lin Zhihuang.

The courtyard is deep. The courtyard arranged by Pei for Lin Zhihuang is very quiet and elegant.

As soon as Lin Zhihuang returned to his courtyard, he asked his maid to prepare pen and paper.

Lin Zhihuang took an interest class in calligraphy when he was a child. His skills were already rusty, but now his memory has improved. As long as he recalls the writing tips explained by the old man who taught calligraphy at that time, he can easily get started again and master calligraphy quickly.

Let’s not talk about the quality or the sharpness of the pen, but at least the words written are recognizable, and this is the word.

Lin Zhihuang relied on his memory at the time and spent a lot of effort to copy the official document in his mind.

In order to prevent others from being suspicious, she did not copy the words in order, but reversed the order of the words and scattered them on several pieces of paper to write.

"You are all illiterate!" Lin Zhihuang was shocked.

I never expected that not a single maid in this courtyard could read.

"How can a despicable person dare to read?" The maids in Lin Zhihuang's courtyard, from first to third class, all knelt down in fear to apologize.

"Forget it, you all go down."

Lin Zhihuang waved his hands feebly, and all the maids retreated quietly.

With the crisis imminent, Lin Zhihuang eagerly wanted to know what was written in this official document, which would make Lin Zheyun's face change drastically after reading it.

Understanding the contents of this official document should allow her to quickly understand the current situation in Daji Dynasty.

Only by understanding the situation can she come up with countermeasures.

In order to understand those words, Lin Zhihuang has been harassing Mr. Pei every day these days and was forced to learn the skill of coquettishness. Because there is no way, in this huge backyard, only Mr. Pei can read!

The relationship between mother and daughter has been getting stronger day by day as you come and go with me in the past few days.

After activating the 'Coquettish' skill many times, Lin Zhihuang gradually learned from Pei the pronunciation and meaning of the words in the official document. After piecing it together, Lin Zhihuang finally learned the specific content of the official document.

The general meaning is that the imperial court announced to the world to commend a barbarian named Wu Kui. Because he led troops to Shengjing to rescue the emperor, he was specially named prime minister. He was specially summoned to report to the world.

This is very unreasonable! What kind of loyal minister can lead troops and horses straight into Shengjing to rescue the emperor without the emperor's order? Could this be a replica of the emperor's coercion in the late Eastern Han Dynasty to order the princes?

Understanding the content of the notice, Lin Zhihuang only had four words flashing through his mind at this moment - troubled times are about to begin!

Outside Hexian County.

The cold east wind blew up bursts of cracked sand, and a group of blue-clad refugees were slowly queuing up, walking slowly along the line. At the end of the line, there was a steaming porridge shack, and the refugees were feeling hungry.

Hollow, I look forward to that hot mouthful of hot porridge to fill my stomach and ward off the cold.

"You still won't open the city gate to let us in today?" An old man was shaking from the cold, his lips were trembling, and he asked the young man behind him who was also half-clothed.

The young man had a cold face and shook his head.

Ever since the war broke out last year, God has never shown good mercy to the farmers. First there was a severe drought, and then there was a flood in June, and thousands of miles of farmland were flooded. We finally survived the flood, and there was not a single snowfall all winter.

This old man was Li Zheng of Xinghua Village, Qingling County, under the rule of Yanzhou, the fiefdom of the King of Chongqing. He had some insight and intuition that something was going to change that day, so he ordered the folks in the village not to sell grain no matter how high the price offered by the grain merchants.
