She sees it in her eyes and hurts in her heart, but she is just a backhouse woman, and she can't help with the affairs of the yamen.

Now seeing Zhang Guodong's appearance of wanting to speak and stopping, he is even more sure of his guess.

"Husband, I ate too much just now, and now I'm a little uncomfortable." Fan took the initiative to speak.

Zhang Guodong has always been more concerned about her affairs, and now that he heard her say that she was uncomfortable, he immediately became anxious, and hurriedly got up and came to her side, "Where are you uncomfortable?" I'll tell Chun'er to go get a doctor for you right away! Why are you so careless, you know that your health is not good, why are you still greedy, more and more like a child! ”

Fan's face turned red as soon as he could, these words were just talked by the two of them in the room on weekdays, and they said in front of so many people, don't you want to lose face?

"Okay, don't make a fuss, I'm just a little overwhelmed. I'll let Chun'er help me go for a walk in the garden! Fan's cheeks were flushed, obviously ashamed.

She insisted on not inviting a doctor, and Zhang Guodong had no choice but to ask the maid to take good care of her, and saw her back in the distance, and did not withdraw her gaze until she couldn't see it, and she couldn't catch off chance of bumping into Song Xinshu's smiling eyes.

From the time Fan opened her mouth, she already knew that Fan's purpose was to make room for the two of them to talk, and quietly thought that Fan was really uncomfortable.

However, this also happens to show from the side that Zhang Guodong really cares about the Fan family, and he is not like the husband and wife of those big families.

Thinking of what Zhang Guodong once said to herself, she was a little envious of Fan's luck, she has already got what every woman wants to pursue all her life, her husband who is dedicated to herself, a caring and filial child, and an enviable position of power, is indeed a unique gift from God.

"Godfather, Xin Shu really envy the relationship between you and your godmother, and I hope that Su Qing and I can be like you in the future." Song Xinshu said sincerely.

Zhang Guodong smiled heartily, he also felt that he was very lucky now, even if he gave him a lot of power and money, he would abandon it like a clog, and only hoped that he could stay by the side of the two people he loved the most in his life, and he could live a peaceful and happy life with his beloved, even if he had a lot of money, he couldn't get it.

"You don't have to envy us, Su Qing's stinky boy is also an infatuated species, whoever he recognizes in this life is whoever he is, and he will never change! You have worked so hard for him and done so many things, if that stinky boy dares to be sorry for you in the future, I will not spare him first! Zhang Guodong said firmly.

His determination to stand by his side without hesitation made Song Xinshu feel very warm, this may be the power of his relatives, if Su Qing dares to betray him in the future, then he will be reconciled with him, and he can live happily alone, because he has so many relatives who care about and love him.

"Godfather, my daughter is here to thank you for your unhesitating maintenance, but it's too early to say that. Don't we have more important things to tackle right now? When you just eat, I see that you are already a little absent-minded. What is it that makes you feel so embarrassed? Can you tell your daughter that? Song Xinshu asked.

Zhang Guodong was a little surprised at first, and then he smiled dumbly, Song Xinshu could see that there was something wrong with him, how could he not know as a pillow person who had been with him for many years? I thought it was good to hide it, and just now she took the initiative to say that she wanted to go out for a walk, that is, she wanted to make room for them to talk.

"Even though it's in your own house, you still have to prevent the partition wall from having ears. This is not the place to talk, let's go to the study and talk! After Zhang Guodong finished speaking, he led the way in front, and Song Xinshu followed silently behind.

Although there is no change on the surface, he is already very worried in his heart, Zhang Guodong will rarely be so heavy in front of him, this time the matter must be very tricky, I just hope that I can do my best.

The two sat down on the chairs one after another, and Song Xinshu still prepared a cup of Biluochun for Zhang Guodong, "Godfather, what is the matter?" Could it be that something happened to Su Qing and them? ”

Maybe Song Xinshu herself didn't notice that her voice trembled a little when she said this, she hadn't slept a peaceful night since Su Qing left, but she didn't dare to tell others about her situation, for fear that they would worry about her.

Although she believed in her heart that Su Qing would definitely come back safely, the situation on the battlefield was unpredictable, the sword had no eyes, and accidents could happen at any time.

At the beginning, she could have prevented Su Qing from joining the army, but she knew in her heart that if she really did that, Su Qing would live in guilt for the rest of her life, and the relationship between the two of them would be over.

She had already made up her mind, if Su Qing wanted to be a general admired by thousands of people, then she would be the woman who silently supported him behind his back; If he wants to be a mountain village husband, then he will be a woman who washes his hands and makes soup.

Anyway, no matter how things change in the world, as long as he doesn't abandon himself first, he will always be with him.

"For the time being, it has nothing to do with Su Qing and them, but it also has a certain impact on them. Some time ago, the war at the front was tight, and the imperial court originally raised a batch of food and salary to transport to the front line, but someone dared to fill their pockets on the way, and by the time the food arrived at the front line, there was little left. At present, the soldiers in the army are short of food and grass, and the Wanyan army is pressing step by step. If we continue like this, it will be extremely disadvantageous to us. ”

"The emperor has ordered a thorough investigation of the corruption of food and wages, but far from quenching the thirst of the near. The most important thing at the moment is to raise a new batch of grain, but you also know that the grain is in the hands of the treasurers of those grain stores, and those merchants will not be able to sell grain without taking out the money, and maybe they will take advantage of this opportunity to make a lot of money. ”

"And now is not the season of bumper harvest, and the surplus food of the people can only solve the food and clothing of the family, and there are even many people who are hungry. Where do you say this food comes from? ”

Song Xinshu frowned, this is indeed a very serious problem, without food, the soldiers on the front line simply do not have the heart and physical strength to fight.

But if the people's rations are collected, it is not that the people are forced to have no way to live.

No matter what you do, it's a mistake, and it's no wonder that Zhang Guodong is worried.

"Godfather, how much food have we raised now? How much stone grain did the imperial court ask to hand over? Song Xinshu asked.

Although he had been prepared for a long time, Zhang Guodong still felt very surprised when he said it.

"The food raised is a drop in the bucket, and it's not just me who is here, and the other cities are not much better? The imperial court demanded that two thousand stone of grain be handed over. Zhang Guodong was a little helpless when he said it, those businessmen made a lot of money on weekdays, and now when the court needed them to help, one or two of them hid far away.

Song Xinshu fell into deep thought, there are really that kind of black-hearted people in this world, this is the life-saving food of the soldiers, they actually dare to blatantly embezzle, all of this can only be blamed on the inaction of the imperial court on weekdays, which will let those sinister villains take advantage of the loopholes.

If this matter wasn't related to Su Qing and them, he wouldn't have cared about this mess at all.

"Godfather, can I take the liberty of asking, do you have any news about Su Qing and them?" Song Xinshu asked.

When talking about this matter, Zhang Guodong's face had a slight smile, "That kid Su Qing is really a wizard of soldiers." You also know his situation, so he was ostracized everywhere in the army, but he managed to accumulate a group of people who were loyal to him. Although there are not many of them, they are all good at fighting, and when one day they are sure to come in handy. ”

"I heard that two days ago, he took people to attack the grain and grass camp of the Yan army at night, and took away a lot of grain and grass, and all the other things that he couldn't take away were burned by him, and the commander of the Yan army was so angry that he was full of gold stars!"

His sudden move not only slowed down the speed of the Wanyan army's attack, but also gave the soldiers defending the city food to eat, and they could probably last for about a month. But other cities are not much better, so the grain and grass of the imperial court must be delivered as soon as possible. ”

Although Zhang Guodong said it lightly, Song Xinshu knows how dangerous it is, and if he doesn't pay attention to it, he may die in Huangquan.

If she hadn't been driven to a dead end, presumably Su Qing wouldn't have done anything desperate, but she had a sense of honor in her heart, her man should be so big, fearless, and invincible!

"Godfather, what are you going to do next about raising grain and grass?" Song Xinshu asked.

Zhang Guodong's smile that had just swelled up was hit to the bottom by Song Xinshu's move, "I'm also in trouble, I've convened those officials to discuss countermeasures in the past few days, but they haven't come up with a usable charter so far, and I'm also anxious, seeing that the day when the court will pay grain is coming." ”

"Whether I will lose this black gauze hat on my head, I don't think about it that much. The problem is that there is no food and grass to be raised, what should the soldiers on the front line who are bleeding and working hard for the country do? ”

Song Xinshu sneered, the imperial court raises that group of straw bales every year, and eats the monarch's money, so it doesn't matter if you can't worry about the monarch, but they do corruption and bribery more smoothly than anyone else.

It's just a matter of embezzlement and bribery on weekdays, but even if you dare to embezzle people's life-saving food and grass, you should go to eighteen layers of hell.

If it weren't for the bloody battles of those soldiers on the front line, how could they have lived these stable lives now?

But they don't know how to be grateful one by one, and they are still dragging their feet behind, which is really shameful.

Since you can do such a vicious and despicable thing, then I can't blame me.
