In the next few days, as Yao Guangxiao expected, Chen Yu returned to Beijing to ask for grain, but many officials in Beijing spread their hands and directly led him to various grain depots to see, the grain and grass in it had already been swept away before the army set off, and this year's grain has not yet arrived, and there is no grain and grass in Beijing.

Chen Yu found the household department again, and wanted the household department to take out the silver to buy grain and grass in Beijing, but the officials of the household department directly took out a thick account book and smashed Chen Yu unconscious.

went to the palace to see the Queen Mother, and wanted to find some silver from the inner treasury, but was told that the Queen Mother was deeply ill and could not be disturbed; Chen Yu tried his best to get food in Beijing, so he could only hurry back and pin his hopes on the seven major grains and grasses: Xinkaibao Cang, Zhangjiakou Fort, Xiyanghe Fort, Wanquan Youwei Cang, Wanquan Zuowei Cang, Dukou Baocang, and Li Xintun Baocang.

"What? Is there not much food in the camp now? Only then did Li Gui remember that he was going to drive the expedition in person this time, instead of going out to enjoy the mountains and rivers, and hurriedly issued a holy decree for Chen Yu to go to the granary in front of him to get grain, and at the same time accelerated the speed of the march, hoping to reach Xuanda before the grain and grass ran out.

Chen Yu came back from the capital and met Li Gui directly, and after receiving the order, he rushed to the nearest granary overnight without resting, hoping to get the grain and grass urgently needed by the army from here, but what he didn't expect was that he was a dignified earl, but he let a small official who did not enter the stream block back.

After receiving the holy decree, the little official in charge of the warehouse who belonged to the Ministry of War did not immediately open the warehouse as Chen Yu imagined and let them transport the grain, but began to refute in a hesitant manner, "General Chen, Your Majesty's will has been received by the lower officials, but according to the ancestral system, if you want to take grain from the warehouse, you must have the documents of the Ministry of War. ”

"You!" Chen Yu was so angry that the soldiers who went out on the expedition were about to run out of food, but he was entangled in this trivial matter, he immediately slapped the table and shouted, "Isn't this Great Wei Your Majesty's country?" If His Majesty's holy purpose is here, what other documents do you need from the Ministry of War? ”

"General Chen, even His Majesty's will must be signed by the cabinet and reviewed in the middle of the matter before it can be implemented, but now there are no either, and there is no document from the Ministry of War, so the lower officials really dare not accept the order." In order to avoid the chaos of the emperor in the future, the founding ancestor of the Great Wei Dynasty had extremely strict requirements for the issuance of the holy decree, and there were not a few people who returned the holy decree before Li Gui, but most of them were famous ministers who refused the emperor's favor, and it was rare to refuse to carry out the order like this.

"Your Majesty's will again, if you don't obey it, don't blame General Ben for not being merciful." Chen Yu's face was cold, and he immediately ordered someone to rush in to grab the grain, but he expected that the defenders of this small granary would not be able to stop him.

"Slow!" The little official seemed to be incarnated at this time as those famous strong orders in the history books, and was not moved by his threat at all, only to see him make a gesture, and many soldiers with torches suddenly appeared in the granary, obviously prepared for this, he clasped his hands into fists and saluted in the direction of the capital, "Liu is a petty official who does not enter the stream at any time, but since he has received the imperial court, he must be loyal to his duties, and when the lower official took office, he was already told that if there is no military department document, no one is allowed to take a grain from this granary, if the general wants to come hard, Xia Guan had no choice but to die in the fire with these grains. ”

"Good for you, a loyal warehouse officer." Chen Yu was so angry that his eyes were about to burst, just his round belly, Chen Yu didn't believe that he hadn't filled his pockets, "Isn't it that the grain in the warehouse has been resold by you?" Afraid that General Ben will write to the court and operate this picture? ”

"If the subordinate officer fills his own pocket, he will have his own military department to check it, and he will not worry about the forbidden army." This warehouse keeper is still neither humble nor arrogant, no matter whether Chen Yu is coercive and tempting or persuasive, he will stubbornly guard the granary and not let Chen Yu take away a single grain.

So Chen Yu, who had just come out of the capital, hurried back here again, and when he arrived in the capital, he didn't even bother to drink a sip of water, so he hurriedly went to the military department to ask Yuan Rukui to issue a document so that he could take the grain from the granary.

"Lord Chen, it stands to reason that now that there is His Majesty's will, the lower officials should sign the document immediately." Yuan Rukui frowned, "It's just that according to the ancestral system of the Great Wei Dynasty, to transfer grain from the granary, not only must there be a holy decree, but also the documents of the household department and the Taiwei Mansion, and the household department is in charge of the money and grain, and the number of grain stored in each granary will be reviewed by the household department every year. Since the Taiwei Mansion is in charge of the military, since this grain is to be used as military food, it is better for the Taiwei Mansion to issue a document that lists how much grain is needed and what it is used for, so that we can allocate food. ”

Chen Yu almost vomited out a mouthful of old blood when he heard this, the British Duke is now commanding the army in the front army, do you want to go back to catch up with the British public to ask for documents, and then return to the capital to complete various procedures, and finally go to the granary to transfer grain? With such a time of coming and going, I am afraid that the army has long run out of food.

So the plot at the door of the granary was staged again, no matter what Chen Yu tried to do, Yuan Rukui resolutely refused to issue documents, and even Chen Yu put the knife on his neck and did not flinch, "If there are no documents, the lower official will definitely be beheaded, rather than die and stick to the reputation of a corrupt official, it is better to die under the knife of Lord Chen, and still leave a good reputation." ”

Yuan Rukui's appearance of a dead pig who was not afraid of boiling water and soup made Chen Yu helpless, he couldn't really kill him; Chen Yu ran in the mirror for many days, but still found nothing, and finally could only return to the army in disgrace.

When the news came, Li You was shocked again, this was exactly the same as Yao Guangxiao expected, he hurriedly found an opportunity to find Yao Guangxiao and asked, "Master Daoyan, the officials of the imperial court really refuse to provide food and grass for the army, what should we do?" ”

Yao Guangxiao gently twisted the Buddha beads and said expressionlessly, "As long as you go a hundred miles away from the capital, the imperial court is no longer something that this emperor can control, and now the key to breaking the situation is not here but in the capital." ”

"Do you want to go back to the court now?" I'm afraid Li Gyu doesn't have the face to do such a thing, right?

"It's too late now, if you give the order to the class, the morale of the army will inevitably be disrupted, Tang Kuo's troops will be killed from behind, and I will die without a place to be buried." Speaking of this, Yao Guangxiao opened his eyes, "If the lord can trust the poor monk, he might as well let the poor monk return to Beijing, and maybe he can find a way to survive for the lord."
