Chapter 159: Conscription

"Doctor, let's see if it matters if Ning Xin's injury is okay." Wan Bingyu pulled the doctor to the bed of condensation.

"Madame, don't worry, the old man will give the young lady medicine." Dr. Zhou hurriedly opened the medicine box, took out gauze and burn ointment, and smeared it on her wound little by little, the blisters on Ning Xin's arm had broken a little, and pus and yellow liquid flowed out, and the surrounding area was bright red, which looked a little shocking.

She tilted her head with her eyes closed, one hand clutched tightly at the sheets, her mouth gasping for air, her eyes flushed, and she bit her lip.

Hui Lan comforted her on the side, "Miss, bear with me a little longer, it'll be fine later." ”

After a while, the medicine was finished, and Huilan sent Dr. Zhou out of the hospital, and Wan Bingyu accompanied her in the room.

Ning Xin said with some grievances, "I originally wanted to help Bingyu make soup for adults together, but now I blame me for overturning the soup...... Why don't you let Huilan cook something to eat later, and you can eat it here with me, right? Hui Lan's craftsmanship is very good. ”

Heng Xinyuan smiled politely and refused, "Thank you Miss Ningxin for your kindness, but I still have official business later, so I can't delay it longer, Bingyu and I will go back to the room to eat, and Huilan will come back later, let her make you something to eat, this wound must be handled carefully, otherwise it will be easy to get infected." ”

"Adult......" Ning Xin was a little unwilling, and wanted to fight for it again, but Heng Xinyuan had already held Wan Bingyu's hand, and both walked out, and she hatefully hammered her injured arm on the bed.

The anger in his eyes almost erupted.

Unexpectedly, the bitter meat meter didn't work for them.

"What are you going to do later?" Back in the room, Wan Bingyu asked.

"The annual conscription of the imperial court is about to start again, and later Lord Fan will come to the government to check the number of registered men in Liangzhou." Heng Xinyuan said with some anxiety while eating.

Wan Bingyu immediately understood what he was worried about, these days he and Zhao Yanyi have trouble sleeping, just so that the new conscription system can be approved by the imperial court, who knows that the emperor's will has not yet come down, and the conscription of the new year is about to begin, I heard that this Lord Fan has never been humane in the matter of conscription.

A few years ago, there was a family, only a seventy-year-old woman lived with her twenty-year-old grandson, in order to leave a little incense for the family, the old woman hid her grandson in the mountains, who knew that in the end Fan Qin knew, he was angry, and actually put the old woman and her grandson in prison, and the military law dealt with.

Later, the two died tragically in prison, so the people of Liangzhou were very afraid of this Lord Fan Qin, and when they heard that he was coming, the whole village closed their doors.

"What, is Liangzhou within the scope of conscription this time?" She asked.

"I have told Fan Dudu several times, hoping that Liangzhou can be exempted from this conscription and recuperate for a period of time, but Fan Dudu rejected it on the grounds that the war has been tight recently."

"The war is tight? With where is the war? Isn't our Liangzhou on the border, if there is any war, we should know it as soon as possible, why haven't we heard any rumors? I think he's just making an excuse. Wan Bingyu pouted disdainfully, since the first time he saw this Fan Qin, he felt that he was not a good thing.

Sure enough, after a few incidents, he and that Pingxi Hou Xue Ruijin were all the way, only caring about their rights in Liangyuan, and didn't care about the lives of the people at all.

"Everyone knows this, Fan Dudu is the one who holds the power of the army, and naturally hopes that the more troops under his command, the better."

"I think it's useless for you to be in a hurry, it's better for the soldiers to block the water and cover the earth, and when he comes in the afternoon, we'll plan again."

After eating lunch at one time, before he could take a sip of tea, Xu Liang ran in panting and said, "Lord Heng, Lord Heng is not good, Fan Dudu came with a lot of officers and soldiers, and went straight to Zhengjia Village outside the city!" ”

"What? Zhengjia Village? Heng Xinyuan stood up suddenly, a little nervous, "I didn't expect him to come so quickly, there are five thousand people in Zhengjia Village, and it can be regarded as a big village, let's go!" ”

Wan Bingyu got up and grabbed him, "Xinyuan, you must pay attention to safety and don't conflict with him." ”

"I see, don't worry." Heng Xinyuan touched her head and calmed her nervousness with a knowing smile.

After speaking, he took Xu Liang and a few officials to Zhengjia Village by car.

Outside the village just now, I saw Fan Qin, who was wearing a cold iron suit, standing there with a group of guards, and in front of him were neatly lined up villagers, all of whom were young and middle-aged, and their faces were gray.

You don't have to think about it to know that these people should be the villagers who were conscripted this time.

"When did you come?" He got out of the car and said with a smile, "Why don't you go to the government office to report it." ”

Fan Dudu had a big belly, his face was covered with horizontal meat, and he squinted at him, "Yo? Lord Heng, you are really fast enough, this governor is here to recruit soldiers this time, so I don't need to inform you. ”

"But after all, this official is the prefect of Liangzhou, and this Zhengjia Village is also within my jurisdiction, so I still have the right to know." Heng Xinyuan still maintained a humble and polite attitude, and said with a smile, "I don't know how many people Fan Dudu is coming to recruit this time?" ”

"Three thousand! These are the three hundred people I recruited from Zhengjia Village, and now I want them to go back to the Liangyuan military camp with me! Fan Dudu didn't say a word, turned around and was about to leave with these villagers.

At this time, a woman rushed out of the crowd of onlookers, who looked very young, knelt in front of them with a plop, and said with a whimpering and sobbing, "My lord, there are three children in the family, and a pair of in-laws need to be taken care of, only my husband can work in the field, if he leaves, how can our family live...... Adults are gracious, adults are gracious, let my husband stay! ”

"You Diaomin!" Fan Dudu flew up and kicked her straight to the ground, "This governor recruits soldiers, and he cares about the life and death of your family!" All men who have reached the age of sixteen are included in the conscription! You are not allowed to be presumptuous here! ”

The woman got up from the ground holding her stomach, continued to kneel and kowtow and shouted, "My lord, my lord, I beg you, let us live!" ”

"If you talk nonsense, you're welcome!"

Fan Qin pulled out the saber in his waist and coldly pointed it at the throat of the people's woman, and with a threat, the originally noisy crowd suddenly fell into a dead silence.

"Qing'e, Qing'e, get up quickly!" A man of about twenty-three or four ran out of the strong man's team, threw himself on the ground and helped her up, "What are you doing here, I will leave in the future, and you will take care of the family......

"Husband, husband, please beg your lord, let you not go, if you leave, then we really have no hope at all!" Qing'e lay on his stomach and cried loudly in his sadness.

The man couldn't, and he couldn't let go of the young child and his elderly parents in his heart, so he knelt on the ground with her and begged Fan Qin and Heng Xinyuan, "Adult, adult, the villain is willing to pay an extra 10% of the tax, please let the villain go!" ”
