Li Ang often goes in and out of the prefect's mansion and knows his work and rest, so this time he is pinching the time, and it is estimated that Kang Yunzhi should be in the inner house. The pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info didn't want to meet the old steward in front of the hall, saying that the prefect had been in front all day and had not come back.

Isn't something wrong? After thinking about it for a while, he couldn't get the point, so he had to wait on the yellow hall.

How do you know that this wait directly until dusk, so hungry that his hands and feet are weak and cold sweat, if it weren't for Qiaoyun halfway to send a meal, I was afraid that I would faint from hunger in the prefect's yamen.

In front of the lamp, Kang Yunzhi finally appeared. He had already been repaid, so as soon as he appeared, he said: "The minister came just in time, so I don't have to send someone to call you." ”

After bowing and taking his seat, Li Ang asked, "What are the instructions of the prime minister to call the students?" ”

Kang Zhifu waved his hand and didn't speak, the maid served tea, he took a long breath, and waited until his breathing calmed down before he spoke: "It's someone from outside the city." ”

When Li Ang heard it, what was the routine of sending someone at this time? After thinking about it for a while, a thought suddenly flashed in his mind, and he asked tentatively: "Xianggong, is the person who came to ask for money and food?" ”

Kang Yunzhi was surprised: "You expected it? ”

Li Ang did not answer, but continued to ask, "I wonder what the messenger said?" ”

Ding came in and demanded 10,000 taels of silver and 50,000 stone of grain, promising to withdraw from the siege as soon as the silver and grain arrived. I discussed with the prefectural and county officials for a long time, and the silver taels were easy to handle, but the grain could not be scraped together. Kang Yunzhi sighed.

Li Ang already had a plan in his heart, and asked quietly, "What does the prime minister plan to do?" ”

"What else? Then recruit messengers out of the city, and see if they can give more yellow and white things, and save only this grain. Kang Yunzhi called the maid to add water while he was talking, and drank it all in one gulp, it seems that there is no shortage of tongues in front of him.

After Li Ang waited for him to finish drinking, he said: "Xianggong, whether it is silver or grain, you can't give one or two grains." ”

Kang Yunzhi was about to put down the teacup, but when he heard the movement in his hand, he stopped, and said in astonishment: "Why is this?" ”

"Na Ding's killing of the official envoy with one arrow shows that this person has no morality. Even if he was given all the money and grain, he might not have to leave the country. ”

Kang Zhifu was speechless for a while.

But now that the situation in the city is getting more and more difficult, and it is not easy to take a turn, how can you give up easily? After being bored for a while, he shook his head and said, "Not really, right?" ”

"Xiang Gong tried to think about it, Ding Yijian's department was originally a rogue, and there was no place to settle down, nor nowhere to replenish grain, so it was all maintained by plundering the prefectures and counties. Previously, he broke through the state, and his income must be limited, and it has been more than 20 days since Wei Shouchun, and his subordinates are at least tens of thousands of mouths waiting to eat. The students guessed that his request for silver was fake, and his request for food was real! ”

Kang Yunzhi took a breath: "You mean, he is also short of food?" ”

"Exactly!" Leon's tone was very affirmative. "If he wants money, why should he strangle the official envoy? Moreover, now that the situation is chaotic, even if he has money, he can't buy food, let alone support the people to make trouble, who will sell him food? ”

Kang Yunzhi got up suddenly, looking a little excited. Since the thieves are also short of food, even if they don't give a grain of one or two as Li Xinchen said, then Ding can't hold an arrow, and sooner or later he will withdraw from the siege.

But the excitement only lasted for a moment, and then he sat back down, looked directly at Li Ang and said, "Xinchen, have you thought about a question?" ”

"Please make it clear?"

"What will they do if the thieves are also short of food?"

Li Ang pondered, and his face also changed. That's right, I did neglect this, if the thieves outside the city ran out of food, it was better to die than to seek another place instead of near and far. At that time, for the sake of food, for survival, they would inevitably attack desperately!

And according to Liang Cheng, in the past ten days, thieves have come to the city from time to time to spy on, presumably to find the weakness of the city's defense. If you go to war again, you may not be as lucky as last time......

Seeing that he was silent, Kang Yunzhi didn't ask. In his opinion, this son's knowledge is far beyond his age, which is already commendable, how can he expect him to come up with a strategy to retreat from the enemy? Then he changed the topic: "I forgot to ask you, ...... came today"

"Oh, back to Xianggong, the students came and went to meet a few classmates in the city, and they all said that they understood the difficulties of the prefecture and county, but as long as they can get by, they will not trouble the government." Li Ang replied casually.

Kang Yun listened, yes, now he can save a little food.

Looking at that heroic face, I was really relieved. This student's family is not very rich, but he can be anxious about people's difficulties, and recently he has contributed money and food, running around, and it is the exemplary role of his father and son that has made the big families in the city relax and lend a lot of food.

"I'm afraid it's not a little run, right?" After a burst of emotion, the prefect asked with concern.

"That's not true, they are all people who know books and etiquette, and they are classmates, so they are naturally better than others." Li Ang smiled indifferently.

Kang Yun's heart is numerous, and he secretly travels around the world, and he has made a lot of progress after learning, but none of them can do things like this.

After saying a few more words, Li Ang saw that the other party was tired, so he got up and said goodbye very interestingly.

Kang Yunzhi personally sent it to the hall, and reminded him not to forget to work hard, but after thinking about it, he has come to this step, who can still care about studying? I also thought, if I had listened to this good word earlier, why would I be in this situation today? It doesn't take long, only a month or two in advance...... Alas, it was too late to regret it.

When he was losing his mind, he heard Li Ang's repeated calls and hurriedly asked, "Is there anything else to do with Xunchen?" ”

"The student is asking the thief's first name, Ding Jin?"

"Huh? Oh, yes, listen to what the messenger said, Ding Yijian is the name of the flower, and the big one is Ding Jin. How? Have you heard of it? ”

Leon seemed thoughtful, but then shook his head and left.

The next day, the government still posted a notice to recruit envoys again. Prefectural and county officials believe that even if there is a real risk, they must give it a try, and at worst it will be a loss of some money, as long as they do not give food.

It's just that the envoy of the last time was hanged in less than half an hour after leaving the city, so this time the reward was doubled, not only to buy a field and a house, but also to marry a little wife. And the prefect also promised to arrange an errand in the yamen, presumably someone should seek wealth in danger, right?

The officials thought wrongly, money is a good thing, and everyone wants it. But the lessons of the past are not far away, and no matter how red they are, who would dare to gamble with their lives? Isn't it the saddest thing to have a life to earn and no life to spend?

For two days, there were a lot of people watching the excitement in front of the list, but no one reached out to reveal it.

The public in charge of the guards even coaxed and lied, and they blocked you back with just one sentence, which is so good, so wonderful, why don't you go yourself?
