When Hui Yuzhong heard what Hui Shangyi said, he inevitably felt a little unbelievable, after all, in Hui Shangyi's heart, he had always had an unfair attitude towards the six princes, and it was absolutely impossible for him to be soft in front of the six princes.

But thinking that when the countless soldiers in the barracks were in urgent need of food, Hui Yuzhong didn't care about anything at all, so he immediately wrote a letter, and sent someone to rush back to the capital to make the matter clear to the six princes, wanting to open a warehouse to release grain, and to save the country and the people.

In the imperial study, the six princes looked at the front-line soldiers who were kneeling on the ground and hurried back, their brows still furrowed.

"Your Majesty, at present, General Hui has led the soldiers to break through Yuzhou City, but because there is little grain and grass left, it is absolutely impossible to rush forward to recapture the other two cities, and his subordinates beg the emperor to open a warehouse and release grain."

He was full of sincerity and stated the current situation, but in fact, even when he heard the words of the soldier, the sixth prince still looked like he was ignoring, as if he didn't put his words in his ears at all, but just went in and out of his left ear.

In order to be able to get by in face, the six princes did not drive this person out at will, but did it perfunctory.

"Don't worry, I will definitely come up with a solution to the matter of grain and grass, and you can also go back now and explain the situation to General Hui, just ask them to wait a little longer, and I will send someone to send grain and grass over soon."

Hearing the Sixth Prince mention this, the soldier inevitably felt a little unbelievable at first, and he couldn't help but widen his eyes, but considering that the Sixth Prince was a saint after all, he should have been difficult to chase after him, so he didn't have any doubts, just nodded lightly and responded, "My subordinates understand." ”

Having said that, when Hui Shangyi and Hui Yuzhong learned the news, it had been three full days, and the grain and grass had not been missing.

Hui Yuzhong and Hui Shangyi sat in the camp tent thinking about a solution, but gradually gave up the possibility of the six princes sending grain and grass.

"Father, where do you think this grain and grass should come from......

Before Hui Shangyi could finish speaking, he was suddenly interrupted by the soldiers who broke in outside, "General Hui, the emperor has sent someone to send grain and grass, and please go and count it." ”

Hearing this, Hui Shangyi didn't care about being interrupted, and followed Hui Yuzhong to see the grain and grass.

But they never thought that the six princes would not care about the hardships of the soldiers at the border gates, even if the rice contained a lot of stones, they never hesitated to send it.

If it is said that Hui Yuzhong still respected the saint wholeheartedly in the past, but according to the current situation, no matter how much Hui Yuzhong didn't mind, he was completely disappointed in the six princes in his heart, and he couldn't help but shake his head helplessly, showing a face full of disappointment.

Seeing Hui Shangyi, who looked like grain and grass, his face was not much better.

He originally thought that even for the sake of so many soldiers stationed at the border pass, it was absolutely impossible for the six princes to act carelessly, but the six princes' actions were indeed chilling.

When the soldiers, who were full of expectations, saw this situation, they were inevitably depressed and drooped their heads.

Hui Shangyi knew very well that even if there was no food and grass, it would be absolutely impossible for this battle to stop, so he dismissed all the soldiers around him, let them go back to rest first, and discussed the next countermeasures with Hui Yuzhong.

Food and grass must not be cut off, otherwise we can only sit back and wait for the crisis to come.

Besides, now that it is the cold winter wax moon, the weather is extremely cold, if you are not full of food and clothing, how can the soldiers work hard to serve the safety of the country? I'm afraid that even if many soldiers want to flee the battlefield, Hui Shangyi can understand what they are thinking.

When he saw that the grain and grass were inedible at all, Hui Shangxian clenched his fists tightly, eager to rush back to the capital immediately to teach the six princes a hard lesson, he became more and more angry, he only felt that the six princes had never regarded them as human beings, but treated them as harsh as lackeys.

Sensing that Hui Shangxian was exuding anger all over his body, Hui Shangyi gently raised his hand to pat Hui Shangxian's shoulder, but just opened his mouth indifferently and persuaded, "Shangxian, I know why you are fighting unevenly, and I will handle the rest of the matter, and you don't have to think about anything else." ”

When he heard this, not only Hui Shangxian was curious about it, but even Hui Yuzhong was also curious.

"Shang Yi, do you think there is any other way now?"

Hui Yuzhong has been marching on the battlefield for many years, and he knows very well that if the food and grass are not enough, it is impossible for the soldiers to stop and recuperate, and if the time is too long, it will also very likely lead to insufficient internal resources, and the morale of the army will be weakened.

In fact, Hui Shangyi had already guessed early on that the six princes would make such an attitude, or make measures that could fully cope with the current predicament, whether it was the former or the latter, it was all expected by Hui Shangyi.

Therefore, Hui Shangyi is fully prepared, even if he can't rely on the imperial court and the six princes, he can rely on his personal connections to buy grain from grain merchants at low prices, and temporarily alleviate the current situation.

Looking at Hui Yuzhong's worried face, Hui Shangyi just gently raised his hand and patted Hui Yuzhong's shoulder, letting him calm down his mood as much as possible, "Father, you don't have to worry about these things, just leave it to me." ”

Afraid that Hui Yuzhong would worry about something, Hui Shangyi continued to promise him, "Father, the child will definitely handle this matter properly and perfectly, and it is absolutely impossible to do anything to burn, kill and loot." ”

Hearing Hui Shangyi's promises, Hui Yuzhong sighed helplessly, but nodded in response.

Because he learned that Hui Shangyi was to solve the problem of grain and grass in the barracks, the grain merchants did not dare to delay at all, nor did they dare to ask for more prices at all, but resold them to Hui Shangyi at the lowest price.

In the early morning of the next day, when the sky was white and the sky was overcast, Hui Yuzhong saw Hui Shangyi leading some soldiers back from outside, and the carriage was still carrying a lot of grain and grass.

He obviously couldn't believe the scene in front of him, stretched out his hand and rubbed his eyes, and after making sure again, Hui Yuzhong believed that the words that Hui Shangyi said yesterday were not a joke to reassure him.

Knowing that Hui Shangyi bought the grain from the grain merchant, Hui Shangxian waved his fist angrily.

"What kind of saint is this, we don't care about difficult things at all, and we don't even have the compassion and righteousness of the grain merchants."

Even after hearing Hui Shangxian's disrespectful words now, no one said anything for the six princes at all, but felt that what he said was not unreasonable.

When there was more grain and grass in the barracks, the news had already reached the ears of the six princes.

He was a little incredulous at first, frowning tightly and asking, "Is what you just said true?" Hui Yuzhong has already solved the problem of no food and grass in the barracks? ”

That person has always been a confidant of the six princes, so he naturally continued to answer respectfully, "Back to the emperor's words, as Weichen Shicai said, General Hui has indeed solved the shortage of grain and grass in the army, if Weichen remembers well, these grains and grasses were purchased in large quantities by General Hui from the hands of grain merchants at the expense of the Hui family. ”

Even if he knew that Hui Yuzhong was spending silver taels by himself, the six princes never mentioned the intention of returning the money to him, but directly asked people to send a letter back, and what he kept mentioning was that Hui Yuzhong did a good job, and he didn't say a word about the silver taels.

At first, Hui Shangxian was hiding outside the tent and eavesdropping on what Hui Shangyi and Hui Yuzhong said, but when he learned about the attitude of the six princes, he couldn't swallow this breath anymore, and opened the curtain and walked in, "Father, brother, if you want me to say, this saint today is not worthy of our respect at all." ”

If it was Hui Yuzhong in the past, he would definitely reprimand Hui Shangxian fiercely, but after experiencing these things, he actually felt that what Hui Shangxian said was true.

"When he was in the capital before, he targeted our Hui family everywhere, and I, Hui Shangxian, touched my conscience and said that in the past, our family did a lot of things in order to be loyal to His Majesty, but there has never been a single thing that is sorry for the saint, but even if we have put in so much effort, he still suspects that our family has the idea of rebellion."

The more Hui Shangxian spoke, the more angry he became, and his hands had already clenched into fists.

After a slight pause, Hui Shangxian said again, "Father, you should know better than me, if you continue like this, I am afraid that one day the emperor will definitely want to destroy our entire Hui family." ”

Not only Hui Yuzhong was pondering about this matter, but even Hui Shangyi frowned, and couldn't help but start thinking about the next countermeasures.

Indeed, as Hui Shangxian said, the Hui family has never wanted anything after so many years of dedication to the industry, or asked the emperor for any credit, but after all, it is a high achievement, and the six princes are always at ease.

"If you want me to say, we might as well rebel with the thieves."

Although Hui Shangyi and Hui Yuzhong were dissatisfied with the behavior of the six princes, when the two of them heard Hui Shangxian's words, they still turned around and stared at Hui Shangxian together.

Seeing such sharp eyes from the two of them, Hui Shangxian immediately coaxed, "Father, brother, you just assume that I didn't say anything just now, I didn't say anything." ”
