At the court meeting the next day, Han Zhan proposed to move the civil and military officials and the people in the city to Yecheng. He originally thought that his plan would be opposed by many ministers, but after he finished speaking, there was silence in the court. This unexpected situation made him a little at a loss.

Yang Biao walked out of the queue, stood in the middle and said to the crowd: "Everyone, everyone has heard Jizhou Mu's proposal, I don't know how you think about it, you might as well talk about it." ”

After Yang Biao's words came out, the court was still silent. After all, in the past few years, Dong Zhuo and Li Dao have taken turns to control the court situation, and they often kill people if they disagree, and all civil and military officials are frightened. Now that the entire Jingshi is controlled by Jizhou Mu's soldiers and horses, how his character is has not yet been figured out, if he rashly expresses his opinion, makes the other party unhappy, and orders someone to drag him out and behead him, what should he do?

"Ladies and gentlemen," Han Zhan saw that everyone was silent, and he felt very strange in his heart, he walked to Yang Biao's side and said to the crowd, "I don't know if you have any different opinions, but it's okay to say it." ”

Seeing Han Zhan standing by Yang Biao's side, the civil and military forces were even more afraid to speak, and some officials who were good friends with Yang Biao were still worried about Yang Biao's personal safety, for fear that Han Zhan would be angry for a while, and ordered someone to drag Yang Biao out and cut him down. Zhu Jun saw that everyone was silent, so he walked out of the queue and said to everyone: "Everyone, I don't know if you have any different opinions on Jizhou Mu's proposal, but it doesn't hurt to say it!" ”

Hearing that Zhu Jun also stood up to help Han Zhan, an elderly minister finally walked out of the queue, and after bowing to Han Zhan, he asked: "Jizhou Mu, the old man wants to ask, do you plan to move only the civil and military capital of the court to Yecheng, or move the people in Chang'an City to Yecheng together?" ”

Except for Yang Biao and Zhu Jun, Han Zhan didn't know anyone in the court. Seeing that someone finally stood up, he hurriedly turned his eyes for help to Yang Biao on the side, hoping that he could give himself an explanation.

After Yang Biao saw Han Zhan's eyes, he immediately understood, and he leaned close to Han Zhan's ear and whispered: "This person is Uncle Ma Weng of Ma Riyan, and the official worships the current Taifu." ”

After figuring out the identity of the officials in front of him, Han Zhan returned the salute to Ma Riyan and said, "Taifu, Benhou naturally wants to move the hundred officials of the court and the people in the city to Yecheng!" ”

"Jizhou Mu," seeing that Han Zhan was respectful to Ma Riyan, the civil and military officers standing on both sides felt much more steady, and another civil official stood up and asked on behalf of everyone: "Jizhou Mu, I want to ask, there are more than 200,000 people in the city, if you move them to Yecheng, which is thousands of miles away, I don't know if you will provide them with enough food along the way?" ”

This time, without waiting for Han Zhan to give him another look, Yang Biao preemptively said: "This is the imperial servant, surnamed Zhao Mingqi and the word Suiqing." ”

"It turned out to be Mrs. Zhao." Don't look at this person in the book Romance of the Three Kingdoms, but Han Zhan knows that this person is still quite famous in the late Eastern Han Dynasty, he is a famous scholar and painter, his original name is Zhao Jia, the word Taiqing, and later changed to his current name because of refuge. He hurriedly saluted him and said politely: "Although Benhou wants to move all the people in the city, if he wants to settle them all in Yecheng, he may not be able to do it. ”

Hearing Han Zhan say this, not to mention the Chinese military officials, even Yang Biao, Zhu Chuan and others also changed their faces. After a long time, Yang Biao asked tentatively: "Jizhou Mu, I don't know where you plan to place these people?" ”

Regarding the question of how to resettle the people of Chang'an after moving to Jizhou, Han Zhan discussed with Guo Jia, Xun You, Xu Shu and others overnight, and felt that all of them were resettled in Yecheng, which would increase the burden on the city. After some discussion, everyone felt that from the beginning of entering the Jizhou territory, they would be resettled along the way, not only could they reduce the burden of supplies, but by the time they arrived in Yecheng, there might be only 50,000 or 60,000 people left, and it would be much easier to settle at that time.

At this moment, seeing that all the civil and military officers were looking at him expectantly, Han Zhan decided to tell them the results of his discussion with his subordinates, so that everyone could feel at ease. Thinking of this, Han Zhan opened his mouth and said: "After a war in Jizhou, the population of many cities has decreased. This time to relocate the people in Beijing, Ben Hou planned to settle along the way from the beginning of entering the Jizhou boundary. Not only can it reduce the logistical pressure on the army, but it can also enable the people to settle down as soon as possible. I wonder if you have any objections? ”

After listening to Han Zhan's explanation, all the Wenwu nodded and said in unison: "What the Jizhou Patriarch said is extremely true. ”

Seeing that everyone agreed to move the capital, Han Zhan finally breathed a sigh of relief, and he asked Yang Biao, Zhu Jun, Ma Riyan and others to continue to discuss the details of moving the capital, and he took a group of guards to the street to check the situation of the relief victims.

Some time ago, Li Guo and the others fought outside the city for more than a month, and the people outside the city fled into the capital city in order to escape their persecution. Many of them died on the streets soon because they had no food and clothing, and in addition to the fact that Li Dao grabbed strong men to help defend the city two days ago, and a number of them died, so that now there is not one out of ten victims who have fled from outside the city.

Han Zhan's porridge field for the victims was set up in the open field in the east of the city, and there was a long queue of victims in front of more than a dozen porridge sheds, all waiting for the soldiers in the sheds to give porridge. Shi Tao, who was in charge of soup kitchen, saw Han Zhan bringing people to the porridge field and hurriedly greeted him.

Han Zhan asked, "How many victims are there today?" ”

Shi Tao replied with a bitter face: "If you go back to the lord, there are at least five thousand people. ”

"Five thousand?" When Han Zhan heard this number, he was also taken aback, according to his thoughts, these victims who fled into the city from outside the city, after a month of wind and rain, starvation, and starvation, it would be considered good that there were a thousand people left, but he didn't expect there to be so many. He asked puzzledly: "Guangyuan, why are there so many victims?" ”

"The lord doesn't know." Shi Tao explained to Han Zhan: "In addition to the victims outside the city, there are many people in the city who have long been unable to open the pot. When I heard that we were giving porridge here, I helped the old and the young to come here to receive the porridge. The subordinates originally wanted to disperse them, but seeing that these people were all yellow-faced and thin-skinned, as if they had not eaten for a long time, if they were driven away, they might only freeze and starve to death, so they relented for a while, and let them receive porridge here. ”

Regarding Shi Tao's move, Han Zhan nodded, raised his hand and patted the other party's shoulder, and opened his mouth to say: "Guangyuan, saving someone's life is better than creating a seventh-level floating slaughter, your good deeds today, these people will definitely be grateful to you in the future." ”

"Saving a life is better than creating a seventh-level floating slaughter?" After Shi Tao repeated Han Zhan's words, he asked puzzledly, "Lord, I don't know what this means?" ”

Hearing Shi Tao ask himself, Han Zhan suddenly remembered that this sentence first appeared in the Ming Dynasty's "Zengguang Xianwen", where can people in this era understand. He smiled and didn't explain, just said, "You'll know sooner or later." ”

At this moment, Han Zhan suddenly heard a heart-rending cry of a child in front of him, and he didn't know what was going on, so he walked quickly in that direction. Chen Zhi and the others were worried that Han Zhan was in danger, so they also followed.

Han Zhan soon came to the place where the child was crying, and saw a woman in her twenties in tattered clothes and unkempt hair, sitting next to a wall, drinking porridge with a broken bowl, and a little girl with pigtails, who was caught by her legs, about five or six years old, desperately trying to snatch the porridge bowl in her hand, but she was ruthlessly pushed away again and again. The victims lining up next to her were all pointing at the woman with their hands and whispering something.

When Shi Tao saw this situation, he was immediately furious, he said angrily: "I have never seen such a ruthless mother, the child is hungry like this, and she only cares about eating by herself......" After speaking, Shi Tao was about to rush over to stop the woman, but Han Zhan stretched out his hand to hold him, and the other party also waved his head at him, signaling him not to act rashly.

Shi Tao asked puzzledly: "Lord, why don't you let your subordinates stop that woman?" ”

"She did the right thing." Han Zhan looked at the woman not far away, sighed softly, and said, "If she doesn't fill her stomach first, once she starves to death, then who will care about this little girl." Do you think that in today's troubled times, a child who is not yet sensible has the ability to survive alone? ”

Han Zhan's words made Shi Tao stunned, because this point of view was too shocking for him. According to his idea, in such a difficult situation, after parents find something to eat, they must let their children eat first, and when the children are full, they will eat two more bites when they have leftovers; If not, endure it yourself, no matter what, adults are much more capable of starving than children.

Hearing Han Zhan say this at this moment, he pondered carefully, it was really like this. If this woman is starved to death, then the little girl who is crying will definitely become an orphan, and in today's troubled times, the fate that awaits her will either be starved to death or eaten by the hungry and red-eyed. He clearly remembers that in the course of his travels, he saw many places and called those who could eat "two-legged sheep".

Han Zhan didn't think about what Shi Tao was thinking, but ordered a personal soldier to go to the porridge shed and serve a bowl of porridge. After the porridge bowl was served, Han Zhan took the porridge bowl from the hands of his own soldiers and walked towards the woman with it in his hand. Seeing this, Shi Tao hurriedly dissuaded: "Lord, you are a golden body, how can you do such a lowly thing, let your subordinates go." ”

Han Zhan turned his head to look at Shi Tao and said, "Guangyuan, now that we have occupied Jingshi, the people in the city are all under our rule, how can it be called a lowly thing to help them do something?" After speaking, he ignored Shi Tao, walked in front of the woman with the porridge bowl, leaned over and said, "This eldest sister drinks porridge slowly, and there is still it here after drinking." ”

Drinking porridge heard someone talking to him, he stopped drinking porridge and raised his hand to look at the person standing in front of him vigilantly. When she saw a gorgeously dressed young man standing in front of her with a bowl of porridge in his hand, followed by a group of menacing soldiers, she was immediately frightened, and hurriedly hugged the girl who was caught between her legs in her arms. The little girl, who had been hungry for a long time, finally had a chance to approach the porridge bowl, and regardless of the porridge water inside, she approached the tattered porridge bowl and drank it.

Seeing this scene, Han Zhan's nose couldn't help but sour, he saw that the woman was always vigilant against himself, so he put the porridge bowl in the woman's footsteps, raised his hand and touched the little girl's head, then stood up and took a step back. Han Zhan turned to Shi Tao and said, "Guangyuan, Benhou has given you a mission, since we have opened this porridge field, we must not let a disaster victim starve to death, can you do it?" ”

"Please rest assured, as long as there is enough food, no one will starve to death." After Shi Tao glanced at the woman sitting at the foot of the wall, he assured Han Zhan: "If one person dies, Shi is willing to apologize for his sins with death." ”

"There's no need to apologize for your sins with death, you just need to do a good job in this porridge field, and when you return to Yecheng, Benhou will definitely reward you for your merits." After Han Zhan finished speaking, he turned around and instructed Chen Dao: "Uncle Zhi, immediately send someone to the military camp outside the city, pass on my general's order, and let Mr. Fengxiao transfer another thousand grains into the city, there must be no mistake." ”

After Han Zhan explained all this, when he was about to turn around and leave, he accidentally caught a glimpse of the porridge bowl at the woman's feet, knowing that she was afraid in her heart, and she would definitely not dare to touch the porridge bowl before she left. But if she leaves now, maybe the nearby victims will come forward to snatch the woman's porridge bowl, and she will definitely not be able to deal with those hungry and red-eyed victims. Thinking of this, he called one of his own soldiers and told him, "You stay here and wait for this woman to finish her porridge before leaving." Do you understand? ”

The soldier glanced at the woman, then nodded, and said, "Please rest assured, the little one will definitely live up to his mission." ”

After Han Zhan left, the woman carefully picked up the porridge bowl, glanced at the soldier standing in front of her with some weakness, and saw that he didn't make the slightest movement, so she had the courage to bring the bowl to her mouth and drank it carefully. But this time, instead of patronizing herself to drink the porridge, she blew the porridge cold and fed it to her daughter.

Seeing that the woman finished drinking the porridge, the soldier squatted down and took the porridge bowl from her hand, and asked with a smile, "Have you eaten enough?" Need another bowl? ”

The woman couldn't figure out the reality of the other party, where did she dare to ask for another bowl, and hurriedly put her head like a rattle, and said: "Eat enough, eat enough, thank you Jun Ye, thank you Jun Ye!" Seeing that the soldiers were about to leave after picking up the porridge bowl, she hurriedly asked, "Dare to ask the military master, who is the son just now?" ”

"The son?" After repeating the woman's words, he immediately guessed that she must be asking Han Zhan, and hurriedly said: "That person just now is my father-in-law, and now the Jizhou Mu, Zhangshui Pavilion Marquis Han Zhan Han Marquis. ”

After hearing Han Zhan's name, the woman nodded vigorously, keeping this name firmly in her heart, and was ready to repay this great benefactor who gave her porridge when she had the opportunity in the future.
