Chapter 188: Stealing the Man Yang Lin
Yang Lin returned to the bedroom, where there was already a duty servant who laid out the brand-new bedding he bought from the quilt shop in the city.
After days of running, even men like Lu Qian are so tired that they can't stand it, let alone Yang Lin. Before his men returned, there was a slight snoring in his room.
Qin Qing got out of the carriage and was stunned to find that these people had brought him to the government office of Yan'an Mansion, and a man dressed in the same clothes as Lu Qian stepped forward and whispered a few times in his ear.
The arrogant brother in Baihualou actually laughed and said, "In this case, make room for this girl, I am really tired and tired, so I will go to rest first." ”
Leaving the Yili boudoir in Baihualou, in the clean and warm government office, Qin Qingqing slept more steadily.
Early the next morning, Yang Lin stretched his waist, got up and came outside the house, Lu Wang and others took a salted duck egg in their hands, and ate and drank porridge in front of the door.
Seeing Yang Lin come out, he silently served him a bowl, Yang Lin leaned on the railing and said while drinking: "The weather in the northwest is really freezing to death, Lao Tzu last night... Hey, by the way, what about Lao Tzu's bed warmer? You two bad things, you can't do this little thing! ”
Lu Wang's expression froze, and he stepped forward and said in a deep voice: "Shaozai, I visited the beauty last night, and I found a big incident for no reason. ”
Yang Lin wiped his eyelids and said, "Come in and talk." ”
Entering the room, Lu Wang said in a low voice: "Shaozai, in this battle of the summer war, the imperial court recruited 500,000 local people, according to rumors, these people not only can't get half a penny, but even the food they eat has been greedily lost. In the Hengshan area, 100,000 people starved to death, these people are locals, and the western army of Xingqing Mansion is their children. ”
Yang Linqi said: "How is it possible, this matter is my single-handed, for this reason, I even replaced the original household secretary Chen Xian and changed it to Zhang Shangying." The DPRK and China have all kinds of grain, grass and materials, and there is no shortage of them, and the Western Army has also said on several occasions that it has grain. ”
Lu Wang said with a smile: "Shaozai did everything in the court, but the army has its own greasy, it is rumored that Tong Guanke deducted part of the grain allocated by the imperial court, and only gave the soldiers in Hengshan a salary, but asked the local officials to collect donations to supply your people." These people were originally local people, and they didn't want to come by themselves to collect donations, so this became the people of Shaanxi who paid money and supported themselves to work, and the local people were extremely poor and war-torn for many years, and there was a shortage of young and strong, who had surplus food? ”
Tong Guan... No wonder the reputation in history is so stinky, a eunuch became the king of the northwest, and he did not fully control the western army, it turned out to be these pickled things.
Although he made some achievements in the northwest, but later the Jin people went south, Tong Guan should have the responsibility of guarding the land, but he fled in battle, and gave a grandiose reason: "Guan was ordered to proclaim the appeasement, not to defend the land." If you want to stay, what is the commander? ”
The old thing is bound to not be able to do this step, Yang Lin was silent, thinking to himself.
Although Tong Guan in history also came to such a hand, the Western Xia did not perish at that time, and the current Western Army of the great enemy could still be forbearant and restrained. Now that the Western Xia is dead, and the Western Army is at a sensitive time, can they not doubt how the imperial court will weaken them?
At this time, Tong Guanlai made such a move, and it is very likely that the Western Army will use this as an excuse to break out into chaos.
At that time, the erosion of the situation may make these strongest soldiers of the Great Song Dynasty become a terrible confidant than the Western Xia.
The iron hooves of the alien race are going south, the heroes in the country are rebelling, and there is still a Western army to clean up the mess.
If the Western Army is about to make trouble, who will stop it?
Tong Guan only cares about the soldiers who have made meritorious contributions for his own lives, but he doesn't care about these logistics men who transport food and materials, now the war is not over, once the soldiers who have fought bloody battles return to their hometowns, the only remaining relatives are fucking starved to death...
Even if the people of the Seed Master Dao, Zhe Keqiu, Yao Gu and others were loyal to Zhao Song, the Western Army would overthrow them and re-elect the leader, and this kind of hatred could not be suppressed.
----
Hengshan, the old border of Song and Xia, Yang Lin led people to build a porridge shed from scratch.
Chong Wei saw it all in his eyes, he tucked the corners of his robe, stepped onto the table in a short dress, hugged his fists at the people and villagers who received the porridge, and opened his mouth to speak an authentic Qin dialect: "Fellow villagers! This is Yang Shaozai who gave us porridge! When the court envoy, Yang Lin. ”
Everyone thanked endlessly, and a few hungry yellow-skinned people were still making waves.
An old man was old, his beard was white, and he was still carrying the baggage, and immediately said: "A few of us came from the Suide army from afar, and we were cold in the snow in the mountains, and we couldn't walk. If it weren't for Yang Shaozai giving him a hot meal, we wouldn't even be able to return to our hometowns with corpses. ”
Yang Lin wiped a handful of tears and said with emotion: "Old man, don't say that, you suffered this catastrophe because the court was not thoughtful. I also just rolled over from the snow, I know what it's like to be tired and hungry, everyone has traveled thousands of miles to bring food, but I can't eat a bite, this official is in my heart..."
Yang Lin suddenly raised his voice and said, "Fathers! The official knew that although everyone was eating at this time, his heart was still hanging, worried that he would eat at noon, would there be any at night? I ate it today, will it be tomorrow? ”
The crowd suddenly raised their eyes and stared at Yang Lin.
"I'm here today to say a word: you don't have to hang your heart anymore!" Yang Lin waved his hand vigorously, and then said: "This porridge shed will open today, tomorrow, and it will still be open after fifteen!" As long as you don't have enough food in your stomach, just come and have a hot meal!
Your sons are fighting on the front line, shedding blood for Sheji, and fighting for the Great Song Dynasty, since I, Yang Lin, are here, I will not let their father and brother suffer in the back. ”
Yang Lin turned his head coldly and said to Tong Guan Lao'er's private soldier who was escorted and beaten with a blue nose and swollen face: "If one more person starves to death, I will kill one of the heads, and if I starve to death two, I will kill the commander, and if I starve to death more than ten, I will slaughter you all." ”
Yang Lin's voice was loud, and the thousands of people present could hear it clearly, listening to his words, the cheers of the crowd became higher and higher, and then every word was ushered in a burst of cheers.
Hearing the end, not only those farmers, but even the generals of Yan'an Mansion of the Western Army who came with him were also full of eyes.
When the call gradually stopped, Yang Lin hugged his fists and said: "Although the official still has a stomach to say, if he talks nonsense, he is afraid that he will delay everyone's meal and complain." ”
The crowd burst into laughter.
"I just have one last sentence left, and I'll leave after that, and everyone can eat in peace."
There was silence in the room, waiting for his last words.
Yang Lin walked to the front of the crowd, suddenly lifted his robe and knelt down, and the accompanying officials and generals hurriedly stepped forward and wanted to help him up.
Yang Lin waved his hand, motioned for them to go away, knelt on the ground and clenched his fists and said: "Yang Lin is one step late, Hengshan starved to death of 100,000 people, whose fault is it?" Some people say it's the fault of corrupt officials, some say it's the fault of cool officials, and some say it's the fault of summer thieves.
Today, the official pleads guilty here, and this is the fault of the official! This is the fault of the ministers! It's my fault!
From now on, Qinlong's five prefectures and forty prefectures will set up 'residential homes', and all immediate family members who died in battle in the army can receive food every month. ”
The joy was thunderous and enduring, and a group of people cried and shouted and stepped forward to help Yang Lin and surround him in the middle.
Only Lu Wang and the others had strange faces... This policy was proposed by Cai Xiang, and it was about to be implemented, and Shaozai said privately that he would be widely implemented when it was spring.
......
Now the people of Qinlong know that it is Yang Shaozai's benevolent government.
