Chapter 44 Sending a plaque
However, of course, he didn't say this, but said to Emperor Xian: "The emperor shouldn't worry too much about this." Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć infoAlthough the emperor's plaque is only worth a few hundred stones, in the future, the emperor's word will be able to stabilize the world. At that time, it was really when the emperor was traveling the world, what was the crampedness in front of him? ā
Empress Fu also said on the side: "Yes, the emperor, we can't pay too much attention to the current situation, now it is a famine year, and there is not much food outside, if General Lu can really find a few hundred more stones of grain for us, the emperor will do what General Lu said!" There are so many of us here, sometimes we lack a grain of food, and it will also cause a big disaster! ā
Don't the emperors know the importance of food to these people at this time? He had just come from starvation. At this time, he just complained that his practical value was too low.
In fact, his value, what else is there at this time? He can't even fill his stomach, and he is probably the only one who thinks he really has any great value!
Seeing that Empress Fu said this, Emperor Xian said to Ritsu Kagawa: "In this case, I will inscribe a few plaques for you!" ā¦ā¦ā
After grinding here for a long time, Ritsukagawa finally found a few plaques written by Emperor Xian. Returning to his side with the handwriting, Ritsu Kagawa hurriedly asked Liu Zhi and them to find someone to make a plaque for him.
"What is the use of making plaques now?" Liu Zhi was puzzled by this.
Ritsukagawa said: "To make a plaque, of course, is to send it to others. What's the use, you say? Don't talk nonsense anymore, get me someone to get me. ā
Liu Zhi knew that Ritsu Kagawa had always been incomprehensible to others, so although he still had doubts in his heart, he also went in a hurry.
After a while, Liu Zhi led a few people back. Of the more than 1,000 people they recruited, some of them also used to be carpenters. It was only later that the world was in turmoil, and they had to become thieves.
At this time, Ritsu Kagawa wanted to make a plaque, and Liu Zhi naturally found them out easily. Because he didn't want to delay time, although making plaques was a trivial matter, Ritsu Kagawa was also busy there with Liu Zhi and others, and a few workers.
For the production of the plaque, the carpenter at this time was more skilled than him, so he was not a guide on the side, but just watching. Ritsukagawa doesn't point fingers at things she doesn't understand.
In between watching the workers making plaques, Ritsu Kagawa said to Liu Zhi again: "Liu Zhi, after these plaques are made, tomorrow you find hundreds of soldiers, and we will send plaques to people together." In addition, find dozens of additional people, pretend to be folk men, we send one, let these people praise a family on the side, be sure to pick up the plaque, praise the heart. ā
Liu Zhi didn't know what was going on, so he said: "But the adult, the villain doesn't know who these plaques are going to send to the adult!"
Ritsukagawa said, "To whom?" Naturally, it was given to the big families who we borrowed food from a few days ago. ā
Liu Zhi said strangely: "But we have already borrowed the grain, why do we have to send them a plaque?"
Ritsu Kagawa said with a smile: "Because after the plaque is sent this time, people will give us more food." Do you think the emperor's inscription is so easy to receive? This time, let them come up with more food no matter what. ā
Only then did Liu Nao know the real purpose of Ritsu Kagawa's actions. Yes, the royal family sent you a plaque, do you think it is enough for you to lend the royal family a few dozen stones of grain? I'm sure I need to give a gift in return this time!
Of course, the return gift is not for the royal family, but for the person who gave the plaque. The royal award does not need to be returned, and that is disrespectful to the royal family. However, the messenger who delivers the plaque needs to be rewarded. This one can't run.
And Ritsu Kagawa said that he would organize hundreds of people to send it, which is a bit of a loss, how much reward do you have to take from others? At this time, Liu Zhi felt that Ritsu Kagawa's heart was really dark.
The point is, you don't feel it yet, because he just seems to take a little bit every time, so that people don't feel like he's squeezing you at all.
Boiling frogs in warm water, this one is ruthless enough. Liu Zhi felt more and more that Ritsukagawa was in a shadow, and he was really quiet.
The two of them were talking, and suddenly they saw Xiaomei coming over, and she said, "General, it's not too early, should the general go back to eat and do things again?"
Ritsu Kagawa was looking at the plaque on Liu Zhi's side at this time, and when he heard Xiaomei say this, Ritsu Kagawa looked at the sky, it was really not early.
However, he still has something to do here, so Ritsu Kagawa said to Xiaomei: "You two can eat by yourself first, don't worry about me, I will eat with everyone here in the evening."
was sent away by Ritsu Kagawa like this, although Xiaomei was a little unhappy, but she couldn't say anything, so she had to go home by herself.
Back in the courtyard, Xiaozhu saw that Xiaomei's face didn't seem to be very good, so she asked Xiaomei: "What's wrong, Sister Xiaomei, who are you offending you?"
Xiaomei was startled and said, "No one has offended me, why do you say that?"
Xiaozhu said: "Looking at your appearance, I thought who owed you money!" Why, didn't you find the general? ā
Xiaomei said: "I found it!" However, he was still busy with Liu Zhi and them, and he didn't know how to find time to eat. ā
Xiaozhu looked at Xiaomei carefully, and suddenly said, "Sister Xiaomei, aren't you unhappy because of this?" What does it matter to you whether the general eats or not, and you still have to worry about it? Don't you like the general, do you? ā
Being teased by Xiaozhu like this, Xiaomei blushed suddenly, and she said, "What nonsense are you talking about, where do I have it?"
Xiaozhu nodded and said, "That's right, you just said that the general is a bad guy a few days ago, and it is impossible for you to like him again so soon." But I don't think the general is really bad, and he is still a bit capable. So be it! The general is afraid of the cold, he likes to have a warm quilt as soon as he comes back, so I'll do it! Anyway, Sister Xiaomei, you are also afraid of the general, so you can go back and rest early after eating. ā
"You ......" Xiaomei suddenly felt as if she had fallen into Xiaozhu's scheme, this girl unknowingly, she was going to exclude her from the scope of taking care of Ritsu Kagawa, did she want to please her master alone?
Hmph, it's not that easy. Xiaomei quickly adjusted her mentality and said to Xiaozhu: "I am the general's big girl, how can I leave the general's affairs alone?" These things should have been done by me, but you, who are still young, go back to sleep first! ā
The two of them began to argue about who should warm the quilt for Ritsu Kagawa. Xiaozhu thought to Xiaomei: Didn't you cry and cry a few days ago, and you didn't want to do this? How did it take only a few days for the mind to change? Really, I want to exclude her just because I'm a little older than her.
However, Xiaomei is indeed older than her, and Xiaozhu knows that she can't compete with Xiaomei, so she can only obey Xiaomei's arrangement in this matter.
However, this open and secret battle between the two was actually useless, because Ritsu Kagawa didn't come back at all that night, and he slept directly with Liu Zhi's others.
Early the next morning, Ritsu Kagawa called everyone up, the inscription of the emperor had already been done, and they were going to send a plaque today.
This time, Ritsu Kagawa wanted to make a big noise, so at the beginning of the plaque, Ritsu Kagawa found Guan Hu and asked him to send a few messengers to the big families to say a word first, so that they could prepare to receive the plaque.
Emperor Xian's arrival in Anyi, now not only the whole county, but also the neighboring counties should also know! What Guan Hu has done in the past few days is not completely ineffective.
Although the villagers have not gathered much, the news has already been heard from far and near. Now someone has gone to inform them that the big families they had borrowed grain from before should no longer have any suspicion about this.
In addition, there is also a guard of honor, the last time they borrowed food, they were silent and a little embarrassed. This time, it is to make a big fanfare and let the whole county know. This is also a publicity for myself by the way.
There are only two words on the inscription plaque of the emperor, the whole plaque has been wrapped in red silk, it looks very joyful, get up early in the morning, Ritsu Xiangchuan let people carry these plaques, and found a musician, blowing and beating along the way, heading towards the destination.
The last time they borrowed grain, they borrowed a total of six, and this time they sent a plaque, of course, to send six. First of all, the first stop to send the plaque is Wangjiaying.
