Chapter 43: Food
You can go, but you have to leave all the food behind. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
Such words are also what Gu Langhua can say.
Mrs. Gu San felt that Gu Langhua must be crazy, and if she actually said such things in front of General Han, General Han would definitely scoff, where would there be no military funds for marching and fighting, since there was going to be a war, the imperial court must have been prepared a long time ago, where could you worry about a girl from the countryside.
Han Zhang hadn't spoken yet, and Han Yushi's face was difficult to look at.
How could Gu Langhua know that the imperial court had not raised enough military funds.
Han Yushi set his eyes on the Gu family's account, "Even if there is not enough military funds, the imperial court can collect grain in Zhenjiang and Changzhou." ”
That is to say, Han Yushi admitted that there was a shortage of military resources.
Although this was what Han Zhang expected, seeing Han Yushi's evasive gaze, anger arose.
The military report he received was a ringing horse team pulled up from Zhongshu Province, all the way south in the name of the remnants of the previous dynasty, the defense of Zhongshu Province was like paper paste, and several cities were connected, after he heard about it, he went on a note, asking the imperial court to gather the garrisons in Jiangsu and Zhejiang, and wave the army to the north to crusade against the thieves, who knows that the final result is that all the garrisons in Jiangsu and Zhejiang were transferred south to Hangzhou, and the imperial court urgently ordered him to gather the army from Lingbei to Zhenjiang.
He took the army around in a big circle and fought the rebels to the death.
When he received the decree, he drew his sword and cut it in half, making the eunuch trembling with fear.
Everyone knows that this is the result of the fight between the queen mother and the emperor.
Jiangsu and Zhejiang are the territory of the queen mother, and the surrounding defenders are the emperor's henchmen, and the emperor is unwilling to consume his own strength in Jiangsu and Zhejiang, so he can only mobilize him, the brother of Princess Ning, to save the scene.
The Great Qi Dynasty, if it continues like this, it will be destroyed.
Han Zhang thought of this, and only listened to Min Huaidao: "The imperial court has exempted the field from ten to twenty years of Tianzhi, since the flood last year, the military tun in Jiangsu and Zhejiang has also been contracted to the big households and turned into a civilian seed, and now it is not time to harvest, and the granaries of the officials in various places are probably not filled." ”
Therefore, even if it is to levy grain, there must be grain to collect.
Min Huai actually confirmed Gu Langhua's words.
Hearing this, Han Zhang immediately stood up and looked at Han Yushi, "Lord Yushi, if Zhenjiang is short of food, what do you want my 20,000 army to eat?" ”
20,000 troops, Langhua was very surprised, what she heard back then was that Han Zhang led an army of 50,000 to fight a decisive battle against the thieves, how could he get here and fold more than half.
Han Yushi frowned, "This matter has to be considered in the long run." ”
The big families are not easy to mess with, and whoever moves may be stabbed in the eye socket of the dignitary.
It's a bad decision.
If it collapses, who will stand on it?
If he listens to a girl and makes a big fuss, he will become the laughing stock of other people's after-dinner time.
The room fell silent in an instant.
Mrs. Gu San outside has been soaked with sweat, this day she is like tormenting in an oil pot, I heard that the Wang family took someone to Zhuangzi to search for anti-thieves, she was so frightened that her soul was scattered, for fear that the next moment the officers and soldiers would break into the Gu family to arrest people, but she didn't expect the news brought back by the next person was that Wang Renzhi was removed from his post and investigated.
She had just settled down, but the old lady asked her to take away the accounts of the public high school.
She knew there was something wrong here.
Sure enough, Langhua took General Han and Master Min into the door, and opened his mouth to donate all the rice and grain on the Zhuangzi.
The war and chaos caused the price of food to rise sharply, and those were not grain at all, but silver for nothing, how could she watch that these grains were given to others.
Mrs. Gu San gritted her teeth and reached out to push the door open.
She didn't care about the politeness, and hurriedly opened her mouth, "The three adults can't listen to a child's jokes, we Langhua are only eight years old, and we haven't even stepped out of the gate a few times, how do we know what food ......?"
Langhua looked at Mrs. Gu San for a long time, yes, now she doesn't know anything.
But she saw Han Zhang.
Han Zhang was the one who was ecstatic when he saw the glutinous rice juice and mud used to pour the city wall, and the moment he lifted her up, she clearly saw the enthusiasm in his eyes.
This is a man who single-handedly cultivated an elite division and turned himself into a famous general.
Such a person died in Zhenjiang City with a large army.
So many lives.
In the end, the imperial court was just a sentence to cover up the past - Han Zhang was arrogant and underestimated the enemy, eager to succeed, and buried 50,000 elite divisions of the imperial court.
If Han Zhang was really so unbearable, why in the next few years, as long as the smoke of gunpowder was everywhere, the emperor lamented the pain of losing Han Zhang.
What was it that made Han Zhang defeated?
If the city is strengthened and there is enough food supply, will Han Zhang win the battle?
So she must give it a try.
Grandmother handed over the accounts to her, which is also the meaning, instead of letting all the jackals, tigers and leopards stare at the Gu family, it is better to give the rice and grain to the imperial court as early as possible, and hand it over to a person who will never turn the grain into a profit, these grains are produced in Zhenjiang, let it be used in Zhenjiang, and protect those who work hard to cultivate them.
That's where they come from.
Mrs. Gu San swallowed a mouthful and said in a series of words, "Those accounts, donating food can't be counted, she has a child...... How can we call the shots for the Gu family, our Gu family doesn't have so much food. ”
"She did the Lord." The door suddenly opened, and a middle-aged man dressed in a blue-gray upholstery walked in.
Langhua looked over in surprise, the man had a long face, slightly light eyebrows, a pair of big and bright eyes, and a dusty body.
Behind him was Lu Ying.
Mrs. Gu San's eyes widened, "Second Uncle Ning...... What are you doing here? It took a while to come to his senses, "We don't need to take care of the affairs of our Dantu Gu family. ”
When Mrs. Gu San said this, Langhua remembered that the branch of the second old lady in Jintan County, the second uncle Gu Shining, stayed in Zhenjiang City.
The confiscation of the Gu family's land property in Jintan County was also due to a conflict between the second uncle and the officers and soldiers of the imperial court.
Grandmother did not have a good impression of the Gu family in Jintan County, grandmother once said that the second uncle in Jintan County and his father were very good, and after his father disappeared, the second uncle also took people out to look for him, but he found nothing for more than half a month. After the second uncle returned to Zhenjiang, he proposed that his grandmother erect a mound for his father, and later I don't know where the rumor spread that the grandmother intended to pass the second uncle to the long house, and since then the second uncle will walk around when he sees his grandmother.
Grandmother began to feel that the two rooms of the Gu family were inseparable, so she proposed to the second room to divide the family, but she didn't expect the Gu family in Jintan to agree very happily.
Since the separation, there is only a superficial number of etiquette between the two rooms of the Gu family, so this time the grandmother would rather entrust her, the third uncle and the third aunt to the Lu family, and has no intention of asking the Jintan Gu family for help.
How did Ning Erbo come to Dantu County, what did he hear? Are you here to help or to inquire about news?
How could Lu Ying enter the door with Ning Erbo?
Langhua looked at Lu Ying, and Lu Ying was also looking at her intently, with a little temptation, doubt and some detachment in her eyes, as if she was looking at a stranger.
Lu Ying must have heard everything that happened in Zhuangzi, and he must have wondered why she had arranged all this without revealing a word to him in advance.
It's different after all.
Maybe in his heart, the current Gu Langhua and the previous Gu Langhua are completely two people.
When she returned, she changed everything with her own hands.
She and Lu Ying may no longer have to eat cherries under the tree, hugging each other at night.
Lu Ying will no longer hang bells on her body and play a game of catching people with her, just to make her laugh.
Langhua felt a pain in her heart, as if something was peeling off from her.
Gu Shining said: "I have already met the old lady, this is what the old lady means." ”
Mrs. Gu San couldn't help but be short of breath, "Second Uncle Ning, you don't know anything," she said, pointing to the account in Han Zhang's hand, "You go and see how much rice grain there is on it, Langhua doesn't know anything, just open your mouth and give it, we can't take it out, you have to make up for the rest?" ”
Langhua deliberately pretended not to know anything, and looked at Mrs. Gu San in surprise, "Third aunt, since it is recorded in the accounts, how can we not take it out." ”
Mrs. Gusan's face suddenly turned red, she held the handkerchief nervously, and stopped saying a word.
Seeing Mrs. Gu San's appearance, Langhua couldn't help frowning, and a bad premonition was born in her heart.
