Han Mo walked to the door, looked at the group of officials, frowned, and said, "This will be Han Mo, you want to find me?" ”

As soon as Han Mo came out, this group of officials no longer made noise, but stood respectfully and saluted one after another, and one of the officials at the front said respectfully: "General Han, the lower official Fan Xian, the magistrate of Susong County, led the officials of Susong County to ask General Han for help!" ”

Han Mo narrowed his eyes, and only then did he understand that this group of guys were officials from the Western Fan family.

This disaster is not only the two counties of the He family's land, but the Fan family is also affected by the disaster in Susong County, since this disaster relief food has arrived, Han Mo naturally knows that this Fan family must come over to share some food.

He stepped forward, hugged his fists, and said, "It turned out to be Fan Zhixian, but I don't know who wants to kill you, how can I save you?" ”

Fan Xian glanced at He Yin, who had a somewhat ugly face on the side, and said respectfully to Han Mo: "General Han, can you take a step to speak?" ”

Han Mo groaned slightly, nodded, and walked to a secluded place with Fan Xian, He Yin's face was even more ugly, he took two steps over this side, stretched out his head, as if he wanted to hear what the two of them had to say.

Han Mo glanced at He Yin, and without waiting for Fan Xian to speak, he had already said, "Treasurer He, aren't you going to ask Lord County Shou for instructions on releasing grain?" The people outside the city are hungry, but they can't delay, what are you waiting for? ”

He Yin said: "Yes! Frowning, he got on the horse, glanced back at Han Mo and Fan Xian, and saw Han Mo's sharp eyes staring at him, so he couldn't help but feel a chill on his body, and patted his horse away.

"Is Fan Zhixian here to ask for food?" Han Mo stared at Fan Xian and asked lightly.

Fan Xian said softly: "Uncle, food is not a problem, the old lady in Beijing personally sent a letter to Yicheng, and our four western counties have prepared enough food, and the victims are not short of food for a while!" ”

Fan Xian called "uncle", which made Han Mo feel a little cordial, but at this time, he couldn't trust the Fan family, after all, the marriage had not been completed, and the alliance between the Han and Fan families had not been officially concluded, who knew what the Fan family had in private at this time.

However, Fan Xian said frankly that the four western counties had prepared enough food, and the victims were not short of food, so he was still quite relieved.

Seeing the tragic scene of the victims, Han Mo was extremely unbearable, he really didn't want to imagine that the victims of the entire Yichun County were so miserable.

"The old lady is a loving old man, and his old man naturally does not want to see the victims suffer." Han Mo nodded slightly, for the shrewd old lady of the Fan family, Han Mo still respected him from the bottom of his heart.

Fan Xian's face also showed respect.

"Since Fan Zhixian didn't come to ask for food, he didn't know what to do with leading many officials here to find Han Mo?" Han Mo pondered for a moment before asking, "You don't just come here to tell me that you are not short of food, right?" ”

Fan Xian immediately said solemnly: "Uncle, we are not short of food, but we will not be without food!" ”

"What do you mean by that?"

"Uncle, when you come to this warehouse, do you know how much grain there is in this warehouse?" Fan Xian asked softly.

Han Mo frowned and said, "What are you asking for?" ”

Fan Xian Zhengse said: "Uncle don't say it, the lower officials also know that in this warehouse, there are no more than 100,000 catties of grain!" ”

Han Mo smiled faintly, Fan Xian's estimate was still much higher than the grain stored in the warehouse, if he knew that there were only 30,000 catties of grain left, he didn't know what his expression would be.

"You seem to know a lot about the situation here." Han Mo smiled and said, "What does Fan Zhixian want to say to me?" ”

Fan Xian lowered his voice and said: "Before the Dachang River burst, the He family had already begun to mobilize the grain warehouses of the three eastern counties, and the following officials estimated that it was at least more than one million catties, but ...... All of a sudden, the grain is gone! ”

Han Mo remained silent and said with a smile: "Fan Zhixian knows where these grains are?" ”

Fan Xian smiled and said: "Uncle said that he was joking, if the lower officials knew, they would have been on the fold a long time ago, and they wouldn't have come here." ”

Han Mo smiled faintly and did not speak.

"The lower officials came here to show their aunt, this He family's cat is very greasy, there must be ulterior deeds behind it, my uncle is here, be careful in everything." Fan Xian said softly: "If it is someone from our Fan family, as long as we send someone to say it, we will be at the mercy of ......!" ”

Han Mo stared at Fan Xian, his face was calm, and suddenly a strange smile appeared, and he said in a low voice: "Fan Zhixian, do you think I will investigate this matter?" ”

Fan Xian was stunned for a moment, seeing Han Mo smiling strangely, but he didn't know how to answer for a while.

Han Mo leaned close to Fan Xian's ear: "I know that your Fan family and the He family are mortal enemies, but go back and tell the Fan clan people, don't use me as a weapon against the He family, then I will be very unhappy...... Even if I want to investigate something, it's not for your Fan family, do you remember my words? ”

Fan Xian couldn't help nodding, but immediately came to his senses and said busily: "Uncle, you ...... You're mistaken, Xiaguan...... Xia Guan didn't mean that, my uncle is the uncle of our entire Fan clan, we ...... How can we take advantage of my uncle, it's really ...... It was really the old lady who ordered him to come down, on the ground in Yichun, my uncle's strength is weak, and our Fan family must do our best to help...... The official sentences are true, and they will never dare to deceive! ”

Han Mo sighed lightly and said, "Fan Zhixian, I also hope that you will speak from the bottom of your heart on behalf of the Fan clan. If the old lady really explained like this, after Han Mo returned to Beijing, he would definitely go to thank the old lady in person. After a pause, he said softly: "Inform the Fan clan that if the family wants to continue, it is not only the people of your clan, but the clan that is attached to your Fan clan, and countless people who are the foundation for the survival of the clan." You are kind to the victims, and that is the foundation of being kind to yourself...... Caring only for one's own people, and not caring about the life or death of the people, it really outweighs the loss...... There are a lot of people of insight in your Fan clan, and this truth is much more understanding than that of me, a young boy, but sometimes the authorities ......are just confused! ”

Fan Xian said solemnly: "Uncle's words, I will bring them back to Yicheng!" ”

Han Mo smiled slightly, lowered his voice and said: "The strength of the family lies in the potential, if your Fan family has a lot of grain and can deal with the local disaster victims, you might as well take this opportunity to help a group of disaster victims in the three eastern counties...... Maybe there will be a big gain......! ”

Fan Xian squinted his eyes, thoughtfully, and suddenly clenched his fists and said, "I will also take this back to Yicheng without missing a word!" After a pause, he said: "He Xuezhi is cunning and changeable, Situ Jing is even more with him, my uncle is on their territory, be careful, the lower official will leave first, take care of my uncle!" ”

Han Mo smiled: "Thank you." After a pause, he asked, "Don't you fight for this food?" ”

Fan Xian said solemnly: "Don't hide it from my uncle, there are many things, our Fan clan will fight for." But the head of the family once said that even if our Fan clan is like a mountain of bones, we will fight without frowning, but there are some things that should not be argued...... We'll just let it go. This is all food for disaster relief, if it is controlled in the hands of the He family, our Fan family will go all out to fight for it, but with my uncle in his hands, he will definitely be able to use it on the victims, such a thing, our Fan family will not fight ......! ”

The head of the Fan family is naturally Fan Yunao, the secretary of the Ministry of War.

Han Mo was slightly stunned, he didn't expect that Fan Yunao was also a very benevolent and righteous figure in his bones, and he suddenly had a little respect for this future father-in-law in his heart.

Although the true intentions of the Fan family are unknown, the Fan family took the initiative to give up the fight for this first batch of disaster relief grain, that is, there is really a wind of benevolence and righteousness, and in such a situation, it is extremely rare for a huge family to be able to make concessions.

If they really want to fight, of course, the Fan family can transfer a batch of grain from this batch of grain, so that the disaster victims in the east will be even more short of food, and this can even cause greater panic among the disaster victims in the east.

The Fan family took the initiative to give up, which can be regarded as giving up an opportunity to hit the He family for the sake of the victims, it is really rare, although Han Mo feels a little hard to believe, but he still prefers to believe that Fan Yunao and Lao Taijun have such strength, from a certain point of view, the consequences of this, the Fan family will not suffer, but will increase the prestige of their family.

After Fan Xian led the officials to leave, Han Mo returned to the warehouse, Xue Shao was arranging for the soldiers to be armed, and the other two deputy generals were directing everyone to move the grain into the warehouse.

In the middle of the afternoon, He Yin came belatedly, brought Situ Jing's instructions, and transferred 20,000 catties of grain from the warehouse, and distributed them everywhere to cook porridge to save the people.

Han Mo personally looked at it, and even personally watched 20,000 catties of grain come out of the warehouse, called He Yin, and said: "He Siku, as long as one of these grains is not used for disaster relief, don't blame my Han Mo's subordinates for being ruthless!" ”

He Yin said very calmly: "General Han, rest assured, this is a matter within the duties of the lower officials, and An Dare not do his best." ”

……

Although the area of Spring Garden is not very vast, it is also the largest manor in Xichun County, which is divided into many courtyards, one of which is extremely quiet, that is He Xuezhi's study.

In the study, without He Xuezhi's permission, no one can come and disturb at will.

There is also a small room in the study, which is very simple, just a chess room, and there is a warm jade square table in its room, and the smooth jade table is clearly carved with nineteen straight lines in the vertical and horizontal directions, and three hundred and sixty-one intersections of the Go chessboard, these straight lines are painted with the color of blood red, and the red line and the white jade table complement each other, which is very conspicuous.

The chess pieces are made of black jade and jade stone respectively, the color is clear and distinct, but the chess players are He Xuezhi and Situ Jing, in addition to the two of them, there is a chess watcher next to him, around forty years old, the face is like a crown of jade, elegant demeanor, wearing a navy blue brocade clothes, a lock of green beard under the chin, at this time is watching chess with a beard, laughing and silent.

"Uncle has high chess skills, Situ Jingshi is not an opponent, it seems that in this Yichun County, only Mr. Xu can play against the uncle!" Situ Jing looked at He Xuezhi with a flattering smile on his face, full of awe, which was very different from his appearance as an official gentleman in front of others.

He Xuezhi's fat face was full of smiles, he put down the chess pieces, and his eyes narrowed into a slit: "Brother Situ is polite, you are not allowed to let the chess next time." ”

"Don't dare, don't dare." Situ Jing said with a smile: "It's true that the skills are not as good as others, and it's definitely not a handicap!" ”

Mr. Xu smiled and said: "The chess skills of Lord Junshou are also extremely clever, but the main chess skills are well versed in the way of change, and it is difficult for me to achieve it." ”

He Xuezhi waved his hand and said: "Mr. Xu is humble, Mr. is a wise man who strategizes, I am not as good as him...... I still know this. He looked at this Mr. Xu's expression, and he really had a look of great respect.

Situ Jing's eyes flashed with doubt, he had known this Mr. Xu for a long time, and knew that this Mr. Xu was He Xuezhi's staff, if he was not the identity of the county guard, it would be difficult to see.

In Yichun County, there are not many people who can make He Xuezhi look at him, and I am afraid that the only one who can make He Xuezhi pay respects is this Mr. Xu.

However, apart from knowing that this Mr. Xu's surname is "Xu" and he is He Xuezhi's staff, Situ Jing knows very little else.
