"You underestimate the power of the loyal ministers now......" Gao Yue disagreed with Lu Qi's ambition in his heart.

When Lu Qi took the special herbs of Xingyuan Mansion and Gao Mihou, and sailed down to Hanchuan in a boat, Gao Yue also led the team to go to Chang'an along Luogu Road via Yangzhou.

This time, he didn't go with Wei Gao, because Wei Gao went out of Chencang Road from Fengzhou, which was faster.

And the Luogu Road he walked is a post road that the Tang Dynasty ruled the world and focused on repairing, after the recovery of Jinzhou and Shangzhou, take this road to the Beijing Division about 600 miles, about half a month to arrive.

Gao Yue and his entourage, first walked to the Yuehe Valley in Yangzhou, and finally went to the Sangping store in Huayang County, Yangzhou, to rest temporarily.

There is an army tuntian in Sangpingdian, which was cultivated by the Huaixi soldiers of the four cantonment teams, and when Gao Yue and his party arrived, they had just harvested the rice and planted the second round of winter wheat.

On the side of the road where the cantonment was located, under several large trees, a group of soldiers arrived to provide drinking water and dry food for Shaoyin's men and horses.

"Ben Yin wants to drink cooked water." When Gao Yue sat on the Hu bed, he asked the tun official named Xu Chuanqi.

Xu Chuanqi was a little embarrassed, so he said that there was no tea in the tun, and now the Fan cavalry led by Ming Huaiyi in the Xingyuan Mansion likes to eat tea, and there is no such thing in the camp of our foot soldiers.

Gao Yue said to him with a pleasant face: Who said that only sencha uses cooked water?

Hearing this, the surrounding field scholars were also curious.

Because according to common sense, it is true that you can only use cooked water when you are sencha, and we drink water on weekdays, and we drink it all raw!

"When you cut the wheat, did you not leave the stalks?"

"Yes."

"Wheat straw is very useful, keep them instead of wood, cheap." After Gao Yue finished speaking, he asked Xu Chuanqi to pick up the wheat stalks.

Soon, a bundle of wheat stalks was brought in, and Gao Yue asked everyone to dig out an earthen stove, and then stuffed the wheat stalks into it, lit it, and cooked a pot of water.

Gao Yue took the lead in filling the cup with steaming cooked water, and then drank it all after blowing it cool, and even said that it was good to drink, or the cooked water was drunk happily, and asked the subordinates and other officials to drink the cooked water.

To be honest, at first, this group of people was used to drinking raw water on weekdays, and they were a little uncomfortable when they first drank cooked water, but after drinking a few sips, they actually felt ...... Well, when the boiled water reaches the mouth, it actually has a clean and refreshing beauty, and it seems that the more you drink it, the more addictive it becomes...... Obviously, there are no condiments, but it tastes like a little tea, and I can't stop it.

"In the future, the post station and water shop in Sangpingdian should supply cooked water for passers-by to drink, no, it is the officials, militias, soldiers and merchants of the entire Xingyuan Mansion should drink cooked water, drinking this can resist diseases." Gao Yue said, and then added: "When boiling water, use wheat straw as fuel." ”

Because he also understands that the reason why people in ancient times did not like to drink cooked water, in addition to the lack of health knowledge, is actually the economy - boiling cooked water, is the need for fuel, fuel is also money, now rice and wheat are mixed, producing a large number of wheat stalks, just to supplement the lack of fuel for the common people, cooked water and cooked food can be guaranteed, and the living conditions of the common people can also be improved.

Enter the Fugu in Yangzhou, travel 400 miles, go to the Luogu in the south of the county from Jingzhao Mansion in Chang'an City, and drink cooked water from Gaoyue along the way, in order to set an example.

After leaving Zhou to the county, stop at the Qinchuan Station on the outskirts of Chang'an City.

Along the way, what Gao Yue saw was really miserable, the suburbs of Gyeonggi were devoured by locusts, whether it was fields or trees, and the fields and roads were full of starvation. Whether it is the living people or the soldiers, their faces are blue and black, and their bodies are swollen.

Qinchuan Station as the capital of the big station, is the starting point of the entire Luogu Road, although the scale is very grand, but the supply inside is some coarse wheat and inferior rice, Gao Yue and others just got off the horse, they saw a group of dark Beiya disciples shouting, from the road next to Qinchuan Station, the content is "rations can not be supplied, but also want us to be forbidden army?" The food is worse than that of a prisoner, so it is better to go to the mountains of Zhongnan to be a grass coward for the mountain shed! ”

Gao Yue was dumbfounded when he heard this.

On the one hand, the emperor was recruiting people from the mountain sheds in Shang, Deng and other places to join the forbidden army, and on the other hand, the children of the forbidden army were constantly fleeing into the mountains to serve as mountain sheds.

At this time, a burst of smoke and dust rose at the north end of the road, accompanied by the rumbling sound of horses' hooves, and I saw a group of riders wearing brocade hats and brocade armor catching up with this group of Beiya's children who were clamoring to go to Zhongnan Mountain to fall into the grass, and the horsewhips fell on their heads and backs, beating blood and dust, which was very terrifying.

"Why are you hitting us?" This group of Beiya disciples who were so hungry that they were about to lose their form were beaten and screamed, holding their heads, and rolling around on the ground.

Gao Yue saw at this time that the first rider was not Guo Foran! I saw him pointing at the beaten Beiya disciples with his whip and shouting, "What is the use of the Holy Lord raising you? If you want to end up in Nanshan as a thief, you will be arrested and put into Si Jinwu's prison immediately, and your sins will be punished. ”

"I'm so hungry that I can't do it, give me a way to live!"

"If you have money and silk for a reward, and you go to buy rice and grain to eat, won't you live?"

This group of Beiya's disciples protested angrily and sadly: "The Jingshi now costs three or four hundred wen for a bucket of coarse grain, where can I get so much money to satisfy my stomach - beg this judge, I didn't rob the Jingshi arsenal and bow and arrow warehouse, saying that I went to Zhongnan Mountain to be a thief, that is just talking, I just want to leave the barracks, go to the mountains to find some scraps of land, plant some crops, so as not to starve to death, please judge the division to leave a way for us." ”

"When we have our fill, we will come back and serve the Holy Lord."

"Bastard, if you enter the military registration of the barracks, you will starve to death in the Beijing Division even if you starve to death." Guo Zhuancai didn't care about thirty-seven twenty-one, so he shook the chains in his hands and wanted to copy back all these deserters.

At this moment, an officer in a scarlet robe stepped out and stood between him and the deserter with his arms outstretched.

Guo Forging was furious, but then he saw that this person was not Xingyuan Shaoyin Gaoyue?

He didn't dare to offend this for the time being.

"Gao Yue, you enter the mansion of Xuanpingfang, your capital master, and wait for the Holy Lord to summon you, this is not your business, and you can't save this group of deserters!"

"The soldier is also the son of the Holy Lord, and the long martial artist is still in front of him, you wait for Si Jinwu not to fake the tiger here." Gao Yue's words made all Si Jinwu furious, they were mostly evil teenagers in the capital, and now they are the eyes and ears of the Son of Heaven, how many high-ranking officials will retreat when they see them, but who wants to come out of nowhere to come out of a foreign official who doesn't know how to lift, and doesn't know what weather the capital is now?

But at this time, Gao Yue turned his head and persuaded the group of Beiya disciples: "Don't be angry, give your life in vain, and go back to the camp." ”

Seeing Gao Yue's scarlet silverfish and extraordinary bearing, this group of Beiya disciples knew that he should be a person, so they wept and kowtowed to him, "If you return to the camp, within a month, my whole family will have to starve to death." ”

Gao Yue helped the leaders up, "Don't worry, I will go to meet with you to solve your difficulties immediately, and I will definitely find a way out for everyone, including the people of Gyeonggi." ”

Then Gao Yue turned around and shouted to the various Si Jinwu: "Please let this group of children return to the camp and not torture them." ”

"Who's this spine?" Si Jinwu, who was riding on the horse, scolded one after another.

But Guo Forging raised the whip and told his subordinates not to say anything, "Okay, anyway, in front of the Holy Lord, hand it over to Gao Shaoyin, you go to Panhuan, let's go!" ”
