Chapter 222: Exhaustion
Medicine Knot Tongxin 222_Chapter 222 Full Use from Bayi Chinese Network (.) When Liu Meibao opened her eyes, the room was bright, and she subconsciously reached out to touch her side, but there was no Lu Yan, and she couldn't help but sit up in shock.
Was she dreaming?
In fact, Lu Yan didn't come back....
Liu Meibao's body couldn't help but tremble, and she lowered her head to get out of bed.
"My wife is awake." The servant woman outside heard the movement and came in, and hurriedly persuaded her, "Slow down, be careful and dizzy." β
Liu Meibao didn't move, looked at her, and wanted to say something, but found that she couldn't say it.
It is said that you can't speak in your dreams....
Is it really a dream?
"The adult said that my wife has been tired these days, so let my wife sleep for a while..."The servant woman didn't notice her abnormality, but when the young couple Xiao Biesheng was newly married, she was a little ridiculous, and she got up late and was shy, and she didn't look at Liu Meibao, while pouring warm water for her.
"He... Where did he go? Liu Meibao asked, her voice a little dry.
The servant brought the water, and was about to speak, when she heard footsteps outside the door.
"I went to the porridge factory." Lu Yan replied.
It's not a dream, Liu Meibao stood up happily, hurriedly ran outside, and collided with Lu Yan who strode in.
"Slow down." He laughed, reaching out to hold her.
The servant woman pursed her lips and smiled, and went out with her head bowed.
"I went to deal with official business, and I went to the porridge factory again, and when I saw that it was almost noon, I rushed back to eat with you." Lu Yan said with a smile.
Liu Meibao hugged his waist and snuggled up to his chest for a while.
"What do you do with slimy.." Lu Yan whispered in her ear, "It's just that you're too tired these days, and you slept halfway, I just can't bear to toss you..."
Liu Meibao smiled and smacked him. Reach out and pinch his waist.
"I don't eat breakfast, I can't skip lunch anymore." Lu Yan smiled and kissed her face, and when he saw that her sadness was dissolved, he took her hand and walked to the big kang outside.
The servants had already received the word and immediately went into the house to set up a meal. The meal was sumptuous, and the room was suddenly fragrant, during which the servants poured wine and talked and asked.
Liu Meibao sat on the kang. Feeling that the whole room was full of life, it was no longer as empty as the previous day, and she took a deep breath. Pick up the dishes and chopsticks and eat in large gulps.
------------------------------------------------
"Queue up. Don't crowd and loot..."
More than a dozen cauldrons were placed around the shelters of the victims to prevent crowding and stampede, and it was not a meal at this time, but there were still people lining up to get porridge.
"This is the rice grain that Lord Ethics and Mrs. Ethics have obtained through their kind efforts, and you must remember Ende..."
An old woman who portrayed porridge poured hot porridge into a hungry man's bowl while babbling.
"Look at me, old woman, I was like you," the old woman continued.
The hungry people in front of him who were receiving the porridge had a dish on his face and a look of trepidation in his eyes. Obviously, she had just arrived here, and her face was full of surprise when she heard the old woman's words.
"I have received the favor of my wife, and I can't eat and drink for nothing..."
The old woman seemed to be talking to herself. I didn't deliberately look at the hungry people in front of me, which made the hungry people want to hear more. But there were hungry people waiting behind him, so he had to walk away.
Along the way, he didn't encounter occasional kind-hearted people giving porridge, but that kind of soup was completely different from the scene in front of him.
There were so many hungry people here, no one coaxed them, and when he came in, someone specially guided him to a shack, and what surprised him the most was that someone pointed out a few places for him.
"That's a thatched house. . . No open defecation.." The man said.
It's all down to this point, and there is a special place for and peeing?
ββ¦ In the final analysis, it's still God's eyes, this is winter, the epidemic is not easy to grow, if it's summer, hum..."Liu Meibao looked back at Lu Yan, pursed her lips and smiled, "But Rao is like this, I asked the shopkeeper Cai to send the disinfectant water to be sprayed regularly..."
Lu Yan nodded, and looked back at the master who was following behind him.
The master's expression was not very good, and he seemed to be distracted, but fortunately, there were scribes on the side, and they nodded in response.
The master also came back to his senses, and he and Liu Meibao casually glanced at each other, and both of them quickly looked away.
"When some more shacks are built in the fort, another group of people will be moved in, and this time priority will be given to those who have families." Lu Yan said to his master.
"I guess it's going to be spring." Master said, his voice was a little hoarse, "The available wood and stone have been used up..."
"Run out?" Lu Yan was obviously a little surprised.
Sure enough, when there are more people, everything is consumed quickly.
"If you run out, you can't use it up, the key is that these don't fall from the sky..."The master muttered.
As soon as he said this, he couldn't help but sulk.
The bandits spent manpower and financial resources, and as a result, they did not get a penny, and all of them were sentenced to Songshan Fort, which was equivalent to making a wedding dress for others, this time the two forts fought each other and became the excitement of Pingyang Wei, and they were also the talk of others after dinner and tea, and Songshan Fort also dropped a large number of money, grain, horses, and weapons, but there was no fart on their side.
It's a big loss! Thinking of this, he couldn't help but look at the woman who was walking in front of them again, angry and sour, in short, mixed tastes, and finally turned into a sigh in his heart.
"Who let you eat red eyes and fish across the line, the bandits of Songshan Fort ....." The master couldn't help but mutter.
Before the words fell, Lu Yan's eyes lit up.
"Junko." He shouted violently.
Zhang Shun, who was walking aside, immediately responded.
"I didn't go up the mountain, but I looked faintly, the bandits' cottage was built well, right?" Lu Yan asked.
"It's okay, these people are afraid of death, and the nests are very strong." Junko said.
Their conversation made the master stunned, and Liu Meibao, who took the initiative to avoid Lu Yan when talking about business, couldn't help but look back.
"Have you burned down the stockade?" Lu Yan asked.
Generally, after the suppression of bandits, they will be burned and the grass will be cut down and eradicated.
"It was supposed to be burned, but the miscellaneous pieces of Songshan Fort came, but I didn't have time, and later..." Junko said.
Later, they were all taken away by the garrison. So there was no chance to burn down the stockade.
"Stone, wood, isn't it?" Lu Yan said with a smile.
The master was taken aback.
"What? To demolish that bandit den? He asked, his eyes widening.
Crazy, right?
"This bastard is a madman," said Wu Daqun, the leader of Songshan Fort, lying on the bed.
At this time, he was being medicated by the doctor, his thick body was scarred, and his head and face were originally swollen, which had disappeared a little these days. Daddy can recognize it when she sees it.
In addition to the doctor, the daughter-in-law and seven or eight concubines were crowded aside, crying and scolding, very lively.
There are too many wounds, and changing dressings is the most painful time. Wu Daqun howled from time to time, and when he howled, the women in the room cried even more. Fortunately, the doctor is from the army. No matter how miserable the cry is, the old god is not affected in the slightest.
"My lord, my lord, it's not good.." Someone outside the door shouted, "Then the people of King Lu are here again!" β
Wu Daqun almost jumped out of bed when he heard this, but his sudden movement caught the doctor off guard, and he ripped off a shroud with a thud. The wound that had not healed suddenly flowed with blood.
Wu Daqun screamed, raised his foot and kicked the doctor down.
When the women saw this, they screamed. The timid concubines rolled their eyes and fainted.
The room was in chaos.
"What?" It was easy to calm down, and Wu Daqun looked at his pale subordinates who had not yet recovered from the shock and asked. "Demolition of the cottage?"
"Yes, those soldiers also brought a large group of people, saying that they were going to demolish the cottage and transport stones and wood to build houses for those victims." The subordinate replied.
"Not here to find trouble?" Wu Daqun looked at the few men on the side with some disbelief, this was his henchman and the head of the team.
If he had come to find trouble, he would not have come with a group of thin hungry people.
A few people nodded.
"There weren't many soldiers, less than a hundred." A man who went to see it in person said, "There are other cows, horses, and cattle coming later..."
Is it really a demolition of the cottage? Wu Daqun suddenly became imposing again.
"Think beautifully! This is my stockade in Songshan Fort, and I don't want to take a single piece of grass! He lay on the bed, blushing and shouting.
"Your Excellency, your Excellency." The henchmen glanced at each other and hurriedly whispered, "Think about it in the long run, think about it in the long run." β
"What? Cowardly? I'm afraid of him! Come on, bring me a drape, and Lao Tzu will slap his face." Wu Daqun slapped the bed and shouted.
Who hit whose face.....
Everyone in the room said in their hearts, their eyes unconsciously swept over Wu Daqun's swollen pig-like faces.
"Your Excellency, don't be reckless." A family member with a bit of scholarly aura whispered, "This time the incident is so big, he can still get out of the way."
"That's for my father's sake, for his father-in-law's sake." Wu Daqun said indignantly, "This kid is really lucky, he was able to get married to the Ji family, tsk... You haven't seen it, my uncle's daughter looks so good, better than the fairies in the painting..."
When it comes to the topic of women, it's easy to go astray...
Jia Ding coughed.
"My lord, this matter must not be reckless." Again, he reminded.
Two days later, although Wu Daqun, who couldn't get up and walk, couldn't help but be curious, so the family guards quietly pulled him to Xingshanzhai in a carriage.
In the past, there were bandits entrenched here, no one dared to pass from here, there were no people in a radius of more than ten miles, and the bandits cut down the big trees around them in order to defend well, and the vision was particularly open at a glance.
At this time, there are people coming and going on the main road here, ox carts, horse carts, donkey carts, and carts are all kinds of tools, which are full of stones and wood, there are no cars, some people simply carry their own backs, and then look at the jingling of the mountain in full swing.
These people are old and young, and even women, all of them are yellow and thin, but strangely full of spirit.
"He also said that he had no money, and he had no money to hire so many people to work! Bah. Wu Daqun spat and said, "Come to my territory to rob." β
Nowadays, manpower in this world is extremely cheap, and those who are tired and tired can't earn a penny a day, not to mention the military households and civilians under their jurisdiction, who basically work for nothing, so they are used to seeing people who work lifelessly.
Look at these people in front of them now, one by one, as if they had picked up gold ingots.
"Your Excellency." A housekeeper looked at him strangely and said, "I don't want money.."
"Don't want money?" Wu Daqun looked incredulous.
"I asked, most of these people are hungry people, and King Lu Yan promised them, whoever transports wood and stone will be allowed to settle in Hedong Fort..."
"There are also these chariots and horses, which are hired from those big families, saying that they have no money or material to donate to the hungry, and in order to express their kindness and accumulate good fortune, they can use the family's livestock to work on their behalf..."
"Yes, yes, it is said that there is money to contribute power, and to unite as one person to win the day, what kind of weird words...."
Wu Daqun was stunned.
"Is that okay?" He muttered, glaring at the people in front of him who were laughing loudly and tired, "This is a white wolf with empty gloves..."
Speaking of which, the walls, houses, barracks, warehouses, including draft wells, etc., of Songshan Fort are dilapidated, and manpower can be spent without money, but they can't even let the people who work with food eat, and the wood and stone can't be without money, and it is a lot of money to buy it....
Why didn't he think of demolishing the cottage? Now that I think about it, it used to be all about money.
What a loser!
"This is my Matsuyama Fort!" Wu Daqun couldn't help but shout, "Drive them away." β
When the news reached Lu Yan's ears, Lu Yan sneered.
"Go and tell Nawu Daqun that it's okay to want stones and wood, let me beat him again, and everyone will go to the garrison again." He said.
After the words passed, Wu Daqun scolded at home day and night for a few days, and finally left a sentence that a good man would not fight with a bad man, and commanded his soldiers to search for other cottages in the territory.
One spread of ten to hundred, the entire Pingyang Wei set off a movement to do dozens of days and demolish the bandits' dens, solved the problem of a large number of dilapidated post fort walls, and did not ask the imperial court for repair costs, which was very gratifying to Shangguan, and the garrison also asked the experience to write an official document and Taiyuan military equipment, showing how he worked hard to calm the rule.
For these things, Hedong Post Fort did not pay attention to or care, although the stone and wood solved some problems, but to feed so many people, the most important thing is money and food, not only the hungry people, but also the original post fort people, cattle, horses, livestock, etc., everyone opened their mouths and waited to be fed.
"Your Excellency." Master's voice sounded outside.
Lu Yan was writing at his desk, Liu Meibao was fiddling with some medicine utensils on the other side, and the two were busy in a room, although they didn't speak, they could see each other when they looked up, and they had a very comfortable day together.
"Master Ji is here." Master said after coming in.
The medicine knife in Liu Meibao's hand is a meal.
