Chapter 477: Leave as soon as possible
Zhuang Rou entered the house and asked the girl's name, it turned out that her name was Li Yunchong, and she was only thirteen years old this year. On weekdays, they live in a big house, but now that the rebels occupy He'an Town, they always go to the major households, either asking for silver or food.
Although it was all voluntary, there was still some threat in the words, but it was not done on the spot.
Seeing that the family was so dangerous, their female relatives scattered out of the house, some lived in their mother-in-law's house, and those who had brothers followed, so she came to live with Li Changliang.
Usually she doesn't go out, hides in the house, and tries not to let people live here, which is relatively safe for the time being.
Li Yunsleeve boiled water to make some coarse tea, there was really no good tea at home, and when she served the tea, she asked with some uncertainty: "Engong, have you eaten?" ”
"Nope." Zhuang Rou came here to eat mixed rice, so that she wouldn't make trouble for herself and pretend to be polite.
"Then I'll cook a bowl of noodles for Engong, please wait a moment." Li Yunchong was not surprised, there were rebels outside, she must have come here for something, it was normal that she didn't eat.
She exited the room and went to the kitchenette to get busy.
As long as there is no burning and looting by the rebels in villages and towns, the life of He'an Town is much better than that of other places.
Now it's not to consider Zhuang Rou is an official, do you have to entertain her with some delicious food, it's good to have food.
There are no vegetables and meat, just a clear soup and multigrain noodles with an egg, which is a rare delicacy for the hungry Zhuang Rou.
She didn't care about her image, she held a bowl and buried her head in eating, this feeling of starvation was really a long time coming.
Li Yunsleeve has never been hungry like this, looking at the noodles that were specially cooked, and they were eaten by Zhuang Rou in a few bites, she couldn't help but be a little surprised, it turned out that women can eat so roughly.
The soup can't be wasted, Zhuang Rou picked up the bowl and drank the soup, when she heard the lock of the door ring, and then it was pushed open.
Then I heard the sound of the door falling, it should be Li Changliang who came back, and when he went out, he locked the door, pretending that there was no one in the courtyard.
Zhuang Rou put down the empty bowl, Li Changliang also pushed the door in, and when he looked up, he saw Zhuang Rou sitting in his house, and he was stunned.
He reacted immediately, quickly looked around, and immediately closed the door.
"My lord, why are you here, there are rebels in the town!" Li Changliang hurriedly walked over and said.
Of course, Zhuang Rou knew that there were rebels here, but there were fewer of them than in other places, and she had nowhere to go except here, "It's okay, they don't know I'm here." ”
Li Changliang also heard about the siege of Hongzhou City, which is rumored to be surrounded like an iron bucket, and even flies cannot fly out. He didn't expect Zhuang Rou to appear here, could it be that she happened to be outside during the siege?
"Did you come here for that batch of food?" He thought of the batch of grain he was staring at, now that Hongzhou City is besieged, there must be a shortage of food, although that batch of grain cannot solve the food shortage in Hongzhou, but it can also allow thousands of people to eat for a while.
As for how to transport it into the besieged city, he didn't know, maybe Zhuang Rou had a way.
Zhuang Rou really remembered the batch of grain, she wiped her mouth and asked, "Is the grain still there?" ”
Li Changliang lowered his voice and said, "My lord, I am still here, but I heard that it has been sent to the rebels, and it will be transported away tomorrow." ”
"Oh, I want to know, it was their food." Zhuang Rou said calmly.
Li Changliang was stunned for a moment, he was stunned for a long time, and then asked cautiously, "But that shop belongs to the Jun family of Song County, his family has been from Hongzhou for generations, and he has also been rewarded by the emperor, and the Zhongyi family will also rebel?" ”
Zhuang Rou looked at him and said: "If your sons have sacrificed their lives for the country, but you haven't even got a title in the capital, and the whole family can only continue to be a rich man in a small place, are you happy in your heart?" ”
"It's normal for Song Yi to feel unfair, but this is also an inevitable thing, even if the whole family dedicates themselves, it's useless." She is very sure that she still knows a little bit of the court's small way.
Li Changliang was confused when he heard this, this is all a dead person for the imperial court, why can't the whole family become a powerful person if they are gone?
"Adult, villain can't understand, why is that?" This is a rare opportunity to gain knowledge, he asked without understanding.
Zhuang Rou chewed the somewhat bitter tea leaves, and said with a slight smile: "Because there is no great military merit......"
Song Yi's sons are not generals who have made great contributions, general soldiers or deputy generals, but small leaders such as Xiaoqi Zongqi.
Among the soldiers who died, many people in this position died, and the reason why Song Yi's family was able to be rewarded with loyalty and county monarchs was only because his family died too centrally.
Several sons are all dead, and in the eyes of the officials and emperors of the imperial court, it is a good opportunity for the world to learn loyalty, and a small county monarch reward is enough to warm the hearts of the people of the world.
"If it weren't for the fact that he died a lot, he wouldn't even be the county magistrate now. However, it would be even more ridiculous if he thought that he would be able to become a powerful man by smashing his net worth into the rebels now and changing the dynasty in the future. Zhuang Rou said.
Li Changliang listened dumbfounded, Song Yi paid so much, he couldn't get what he wanted at all, it wasn't for nothing!
"I see, it's not easy to be rich." He thought about it and felt that he could just be a scribe, and it was really wise, it would be good if Xiaofu Xiaogui could watch his sister marry a good family, and live a peaceful life.
Zhuang Rou said to him meaningfully: "Seeking wealth in danger, this word is powerful, the greater the wealth, the easier it is to die." ”
Li Changliang swallowed his saliva, shook his head and said, "The villain doesn't want to do so much, he just wants to do things for the adults." What's the use of the villain this time, please don't be polite, if something happens to me, I hope the adult can save my sister's life. ”
"Send her away, she can marry an ordinary good family, just don't beat or scold."
This is all explained in the future, Zhuang Rou rolled her eyes, "I'm just here to eat, I don't need you to do anything else, just let me stay for one night once in a while and prepare some dry food." ”
It turns out that there is no need to go on an adventure!
Li Changliang breathed a sigh of relief, and Li Yunsleeve put down the heart he was carrying, the two brothers and sisters were intimate, and Li Changliang mentioned that he might have great wealth.
She was shocked when she heard it next to her just now, worried that her brother would go to a dead end for the sake of wealth, after all, there are rebels outside, and her brother is doing things for the government, so his life is in danger now.
Now hearing that it was just food and shelter, Li Yunsleeve patted his chest, and finally didn't have to worry.
Zhuang Rou looked at her and smiled, "I burned a rebel army ration just now, and I originally wanted to come here to burn the grain from the Renyi Grain Workshop as well, but if you light a fire in the town, the rebels will be angry at you." ”
"Perhaps, they will say that the people in the town have passed through the government and deliberately burned their food, and they will blame you."
Li Changliang and Li Yunchong suddenly looked at her in shock, if it was really on fire, burning the grain would be troubled by the rebels, and they didn't know how many people would die. And if the fire is not extinguished in time, it is easy to string to other people's houses, and maybe a town will be burned down.
"So I'm going to wait for them to transport the rations away, and then go to burn the rations when there are fewer people on the way, so that it has nothing to do with you." Zhuang Rou said with a smile.
"My lord, you are really a good official who really thinks about the people!" Li Changliang stood up and bowed deeply to her.
There are a lot of people in this He'an town, and he doesn't want to watch them killed by the rebels, so that everyone can survive this incident.
Zhuang Rou thought about it, and still proposed: "It's better to leave as soon as the rebels are willing to let you go." The war here won't last long, it's been a long time, and I'm afraid you won't be able to leave if you want to, and you'll lose your lives. ”
