Chapter 819: Prisoners in the Dungeon

Aunt Bi naturally heard Han Mo's arrival, at this time she was holding needle embroidery and brocade in her hands, her expression was soft, and her beautiful eyes looked at Han Mo who came in from outside.

Han Mo stopped and looked at that beautiful face.

It seems that there is a lot to say, but I don't know where to start.

Suddenly, Han Mo clearly saw that Aunt Bi's beautiful face was smiling, it was a smile that made people feel happy, even a thousand years of ice and snow, which could also be melted by this smile.

Han Mo couldn't help but laugh too.

Laughing like the wind.

Han Qin had already rushed in, picked up the clothes embroidered on the table, handed them over, and said with a smile: "Brother, look, this is my sister's embroidered ......!" ”

Red Sleeves was a little nervous, lowered his head, and said softly, "I...... I don't embroider well......! ”

Han Mo took over the embroidery, but it was a "Peony Picture", the peony UA bloomed gorgeously, although it was not as lifelike as Aunt Bi's embroidery, but for a beginner, it was already amazing.

Han Mo sighed: "The so-called skillful hands are my sister's hands." He looked at the red sleeves and said softly: "This embroidered painting is given to my brother, can it be done?" ”

Redsleeve's face was slightly red, and he said, "The embroidery is not good...... When I learned it with my aunt, I ...... Embroider another pair for my brother! ”

Han Mo only saw her indifferent and calm in the past, where had he seen her so shy, although he was a little uncomfortable, but he had to sigh at the different emotions of n people, and the demeanor she showed was indeed completely different.

Good! Han Mo was also polite, took this embroidered painting into his arms, and then looked at Aunt Bi, and said softly: "Mother said that my aunt was infected with typhoid fever, and her body is better?" ”

"It's fine." Aunt Bi smiled softly: "It's just that you are busy with things, but you have to pay attention to your body." ”

"Mo'er knows." Han Mo bowed slightly, thinking that Aunt Bi's incomparably strong appearance in the city was very different from the current gentle and gentle appearance, if it wasn't for seeing it in person, who would have believed that such a gentle F person would have such a strong side.

After hesitating for a moment, Han Mo finally took out a small cotton bag from his arms and opened it carefully, "Auntie, this is a material from Nanyang, it is hot and long-term use, and it is good for the body!" He put the small bag on the table and said softly: "In the future, someone will send ...... here every month!" ”

Aunt Bi hesitated slightly, and finally smiled: "You don't have to bother so much. ”

Han Mo shook his head and said, "Auntie is not in good health, Mo'er doesn't have much effort, as long as Auntie is well." At this time, Han Qin and Red Sleeves were beside him, so it was naturally inconvenient for him to say more, and when he saw that Aunt Bi was in good condition, he was relieved.

……

……

West UA Hall.

This mutiny, the Xiua Hall poured out to rescue the cabinet officials, and under the response of the wind rider and the Dongua Hall, Han Moja was finally completed, but the UA Hall itself suffered heavy losses, and half of the officials were killed in battle, although most of them were newcomers who had only been newly incorporated into the Xiua Hall in the past year, but the old officials of the Xiua Hall were also seriously injured.

These old officials are the foundation of the UA Hall, and every time they die, the power of the West UA Hall will be weakened by a point.

However, it is undeniable that after this battle, the prestige of the West UA Hall has reached a new height, and although countless lives have been sacrificed, the rise of the UA Hall cannot be denied.

Han Mo stood by the window of the office in the UA hall, looking at the ice-covered lake outside the window, and after a long time, he said, "Although the reward of the imperial court is inevitable, it is ...... Ultimately, there is a limit. Those brothers all died for peace, and they were all heroes of my Great Yan Kingdom, and they couldn't let them die without food and clothing for their families. ”

Behind him, there were the only two directors in the UA hall at present, Li Gu and Gong Quan.

"When Gongyan was alive, the officials of the UA hall also had a pension after they died in battle." Gong Yiquan said slowly: "But the number is not much, and the imperial court has never had an example of a heavy reward for the UA hall." ”

Han Mo didn't speak, but he knew it very well in his heart.

The silver of the two UA halls has always been supplied by the inner treasury, and the so-called inner treasury is, to put it bluntly, the money bag of the royal family, and this money bag has never been full.

The silver in the inner treasury has to support the expenses of the royal family, which is a huge expense, and even if there is a pavilion in the imperial city, the silver must be withdrawn from the inner treasury.

However, the source of the silver in the inner treasury is not very rich, except for those imperial merchants who operate secretly, it is a part of the money that is pulled out of the household treasury every year.

Of course, the family will not let the silver in the imperial treasury be too full, so even if the silver is allocated from the household, there is a strict limit.

In addition to supporting the expenses of the imperial family, the silver of the two UA halls is also allocated by the inner treasury, and the two UA halls belong to the cabinet under the direct jurisdiction of the emperor, so the pension silver of the UA hall will naturally have to be taken out from the inner treasury.

This time will be no exception.

This time, the Xiua Department worked hard to rescue the cabinet officials, and the credit was huge, and the cabinet officials may pull out another sum of silver from the household department for this reason, but the amount will never be too much. After all, the people who need to be appeased this time are too right, the Ninth Officers and Soldiers, the Northwest Army, and the Imperial Forest Army, although the war dead must be allocated silver for compensation, but the meritorious ones also need to be rewarded by everyone.

In the past, wars not only cost a lot of money to equip equipment, grain and grass, but also accounted for a large proportion of the rewards for soothing the beard.

Guilty punishment, meritorious reward, the ancient way, justified.

"The household department has already pulled out a sum of money for the burial." "The dead brother has been properly buried, but ...... The pension money was not allocated for a while. ”

Han Mo pondered for a moment, and finally said, "How much silver does the Silver Money Division have?" ”

Gongyiquan and Li Gu glanced at each other, and then Gongyiquan said: "Back to my lord, the Yinqian Division has always been managed by Pei Yinghou, and now it is ......!" Speaking of this, he paused, and was the only one who was silent, and then said: "The brothers have been lurking in the capital all this time and have not performed too many tasks, so the amount of silver included in the Silver Money Division is extremely limited......!" ”

Han Mo returned to his seat, pondered for a moment, and finally said: "I will take 50,000 taels of silver out first, and the families of the brothers who died in the war will be appeased, and as for those who survived, no one will also distribute some silver ......!" ”

Both Gongyi Quan and Li Gu were slightly surprised

This has always only been the official squeezing money, where have I seen the official take out the silver to his subordinates, and 50,000 taels of silver is by no means a small amount, Han Mo is going to take it out lightly, it is really surprising.

Immediately, there was a burst of warmth in the hearts of the two.

In any case, Han Mo's care for his subordinates is indeed admirable.

Loyalty to the monarch and patriotism is certainly familiar to the officials of the Xiua Hall, but this kind of idea cannot be eaten after all, every official is a bloody body, has a family, and has to eat to survive.

And what Han Mo did was the most important thing.

Han Mo knew very well in his heart that if he wanted people to work for him, he had to let them eat and drink enough to worry about it, and the officials of the Xiua Hall were also people, and they also needed silver.

Although 50,000 taels of silver is a lot, after all, there is a strong maritime trade behind him, and the most important thing in the account is silver, at this time, Han Mo felt the importance of silver

The inner treasury can't take out the silver, the household can't give the silver, and paying out of pocket is enough to make everyone more loyal.

Although the difficulties of the officials were solved, the two of them were quite happy, but the public still said: "My lord, you care about your brothers, and you are here to thank your brothers for your brother." It's just that......! Speaking of this, he hesitated slightly, and finally said: "It's just that the lord took the silver out of his hand, this ...... Will people gossip about adults behind their backs? ”

Han Mo frowned, and instantly understood.

Taking out the silver by himself certainly makes the people in the UA Hall feel emotional, but some people are obviously very disgusted with such things, when an official pays out of his own pocket to compensate a large number of UA Hall war dead and reward a large number of meritorious service, it will inevitably arouse the attention of some people, and even bring trouble to Han Mo himself.

"The brothers will eat, and the families will live." Han Mo said lightly: "Fifty thousand taels of silver, first into the Silver Money Division, and then distributed, there is no need to tell everyone that this is taken out by the official." ”

Gong Yiquan immediately knelt down, and Li Gu also knelt down on one knee.

……

In the terrifying dungeon of the Xiua Hall, Pei Yinghou, who had been heavily flailed, was lying on the straw, motionless, staring at the roof with a pair of eyes, his eyes empty

In order to prevent him from committing suicide, he has been injected with poison in his body and has no strength, even if he doesn't even have the strength to bite his tongue and kill himself.

Hearing the sound of footsteps, Pei Yinghou couldn't even tilt his head.

The iron was turned on, Pei Yinghou felt the footsteps sound again, but he had already closed his eyes, and when the footsteps stopped beside him, there was an extremely helpless expression on his face.

"At the end of the golden stone hard bone sky, the wind and snow even the heavenly body is cultivated. You can teach the fairy machine yin yang way, and sigh the loyalty and righteousness with the east! Han Mo stared at Pei Yinghou, who couldn't move, his expression calmed, and motioned to Li Gu beside him to step forward to detoxify Pei Yinghou.

Li Gu personally stepped forward, and after injecting relief for Pei Yinghou for a while, Pei Yinghou's fingers moved first, and then his body was able to move quickly.

"It's freezing outside, would Director Pei be willing to have a drink with me?" Han Mo said calmly, and motioned to Li Gu to remove the heavy and strong shackles on Pei Yinghou's body.

Pei Yinghou stood up with difficulty, unkempt, far from the original image of an elegant and handsome man.

"Adults invite wine, you should accompany you!" Moving his wrist slightly, Pei Yinghou looked calm and smiled indifferently.

Han Mo was the first to get out of the prison, and when he got out of the prison, in the dungeon, there was a table of wine and food.

"These dishes, I want them to inquire, are your usual favorite dishes." Han Mo walked to the table and said with a gentle smile: "This wine, you are naturally not unfamiliar with it, and it is also your favorite thyme wine on weekdays." Pointing to a chair, he said, "Director Pei, please take a seat!" ”

Pei Yinghou was also not polite and sat down at the table.

P: Stay up late and make up for the chapter you owe yesterday! a! ~!
