Chapter 288: Curtain Heaven and Earth (Nine Watches)

Ye Yanxing nodded and echoed, "The Wagang army was raised by the hungry people, gathered together, and resisted the tyranny of the Sui Dynasty. ”

"Then Xingluocang also knows!" Ye Sanniang looked at them with bright eyes and said.

"Yes!" Ye Luoxing said excitedly, "It is the largest granary of the Sui Dynasty near Luoyang, the eastern capital, and it was founded in the second year of the Great Cause. The warehouse is located on the Bishan Ridge near the mouth of the Luo River into the Yellow River. A strong warehouse city was also built around the granary, which occupied a radius of more than 20 li, and 3,000 cellars were excavated, each of which could store 8,000 stone of grain, most of which was scavenged from the south. The north of Cangcheng is the turbulent Yellow River, the west is close to the surging Luoshui, there is a Shizi River that flows into Luoshui not far from the south, the south bank is the famous Heishi Pass, the east is the undulating mountain range, it is less than 100 miles away from the Tiger Prison Pass, the terrain is very dangerous, easy to defend and difficult to attack. ”

"At that time, the famine was serious, and the people of the Central Plains were waiting to be fed, and Xingluocang obviously hoarded so much grain, why didn't he provide disaster relief." Ye Sanniang asked lightly.

Ye Sanniang's voice was neither high nor low, but it hit the nail on the head, "Why?" ”

"Uh......" Ye Luoxing said for a long time, "I also want to know why?" Obviously, there is so much grain, and the dignitaries can't eat it all, so why don't you open a warehouse and release grain! ”

"After conspiring, the Wagang army took Emperor Yang of Sui to Jiangdu, attacked the east and the west, easily took the Xingluo warehouse, and told the peasants within a radius of dozens of miles: The Wagang army has opened a warehouse and released grain, and they have come to receive grain! This move won the support of the people and strengthened the team in one fell swoop. Ye Sanniang looked at them with clear eyes and said.

"Yes! What does this court think! If you don't make decisions for the people, what do you do as an official? Ye Yanxing looked at her with a puzzled face and asked.

"This people are not ordinary people, they are ants in their eyes, and they die when they die." Ye Sanniang said in a cold voice, "In the eyes of people, the people are officials, rich businessmen, and squires and landlords. The mud legs are a fart, and they are thinking about wealth and glory for thousands of years. ”

"Eventually, they were destroyed by a hungry and angry people." Ye Luoxing said with special relief, "You deserve it." ”

"So! Disaster relief also depends on whether there is a Ming monarch in this Jinluan Palace. Ye Sanniang's dark pupils looked at them and said, "I also have to see if the officials below have serious disaster relief, in case the yang is against the yin, or the disaster relief is used as a tool to collect money, and the people are full of fat intestines to earn, and the people are still suffering." ”

"Ahh The brothers said in unison with round eyes.

"There's a lot of cats in here! It is a matter of conscience to mix sand or wheat bran with relief grain. Ye Sanniang snorted coldly and looked at the two people who opened the new world, "The old grain is still acceptable, but I'm afraid that this old grain is moldy grain." ”

The brothers were stunned and speechless.

"Really, fakely?" Ye Luoxing said in disbelief.

"What Miss said is true." Gao Mancang said without looking back, "These old slaves have all experienced it, and there are more than this." ”

"There is nothing new under the sun, and history books abound, so don't be so surprised." Ye Sanniang looked at them mildly and said, looking at the two of them who were stunned, "Why are you so surprised!" Haven't you seen it in the history books? The rise and fall of dynasties in these thousands of years is not all a repetition of the cycle. ”

"We've seen it! It's just not like you're going to tell the root cause. Ye Yanxing looked at her with big eyes and said.

"Do they know the people above the temple? Is there a solution? Ye Luoxing asked very curiously.

"They know and know the solution, but they won't do it." Ye Sanniang looked at them with deep and dark eyes and said.

"Why?" Ye Yanxing looked at her in confusion and said, "If there is a solution, why don't you use it, you have to live in misery." ”

"Anyway, it was the emperor who was overthrown, not them." Ye Sanniang snorted coldly.

"There are no eggs under the nest, don't they understand this simple reason?" Ye Luoxing looked at her in surprise and said.

"Understood! But they thought they were lucky. Ye Sanniang said mockingly.

"Impossible!" Ye Luoxing said in disbelief.

"Nothing is impossible, some people just don't believe in evil." Ye Sanniang patted her plush hand, and looked out the window through the car window to see that it was obviously dark, "We're going to be in the dark." ”

"I'm afraid so." Gao Mancang said in a sullen voice when he heard this.

"Then find a place with water, and let's bury the pot and make rice." Ye Sanniang raised her voice slightly.

"Hey!" Gao Mancang replied briskly.

Gao Mancang found a broken temple before dark, "Miss, there is a broken temple, so it can shelter the wind." ”

Ye Sanniang got off the mule cart and looked at the somewhat dilapidated land temple in front of her, shook her head and chuckled.

"Mother, what are you laughing at?" Ye Luoxing looked at the land temple in front of him incomprehensibly, "What's wrong with this temple?" ”

"Nothing? Let's spend the night here! Ye Sanniang pulled her scarf and looked at them and said.

Gao Mancang tied the mule to the tree.

"Let's clean up these, and fetch water first when the warehouse is full." Ye Sanniang directly instructed, "Yan Xing, you two pick up firewood nearby, Mr. Fire, don't drive away the cold in the temple." ”

"Yes!"

Everyone acted separately, Ye Sanniang entered the broken temple, and took a broom to clean up the center briefly.

Then the straw mats, pots and pans and dry food, and bedding were brought down from the car.

Ye Yanxing and his brothers picked up a lot of firewood, and when Gao Mancang came back with the jug, the bonfire had already been lit.

The chill in the ruined temple dispelled a lot.

"Mother, how do you eat this big white steamed bun?" Ye Yanxing pinched the big white steamed bun in the package and said, "It's a little hard." ”

"It's simple, with chopsticks in it, and it's baked over the fire." Ye Sanniang said lightly, handed them the chopsticks, and said with a smile, "Eat steamed buns to pad your stomach first, and let's boil some porridge later." ”

"Good!" Ye Yanxing took the chopsticks and put them on the fire to roast the steamed buns.

"There are no wild beasts in the wilderness!" Ye Luoxing looked at the darkness outside the door, as if he wanted to devour them.

"Young Master Luoxing wants to talk about rabbits and pheasants, there must be this." Gao Mancang's black and white eyes danced with flames.

"That's a good feeling! Let's grab it, bake it, and eat it. Ye Yanxing said excitedly, his little face was red from the firelight.

"I'm talking about jackals, tigers and leopards." Ye Luoxing's eyes widened and he looked at them and said.

"I haven't seen it, I haven't heard of it." Gao Mancang thought seriously when he heard this, and said.

"How is that possible?" Ye Sanniang looked at him in surprise and said.

"The Central Plains used to be prosperous, and it was a battleground for soldiers, and this jackal, tiger and leopard has not become a meal on the plate." Gao Mancang said with a smile.
