Zhang Zhishu grabbed a small handful of brown rice, washed it and put it in the clay pot, thinking that it would cost firewood, and set up a small stove without using a big pot.

"I just heard the lady mention the pension food, and there is someone in the family who is in the army?"

The gentleman was far away from the kitchen, and Wei Xuan stood still under the corridor of the stove room.

Zhang Zhishu was busy lighting the fire and didn't even raise her head.

"Generations of military households, two generations of the Han family went to the border together, and the only one who came back was my husband who is still lying in bed."

"The family is full of heroes, and the government should take care of the court well."

"Liaoxi is still martial, and the military households have a high status in the local area, but God does not give people a way to live, and after three years of drought, the granary of the government has long been empty.

Our area is far away from Liaoxi City, and when the city lord learned of the tragic situation in this area, he also sent troops to escort relief food several times, but unfortunately he was robbed halfway before he arrived at us. ”

"How lawless?"

How did the Wu clan govern Liaoxi?

Every year, he asked the court for a large amount of relief money, and the military salary and military rations were doubled again and again, and the people under his rule even dared to rob the disaster relief food!

As soon as Zhang Zhishu looked up, she saw that the face of the person who came was extremely gloomy, and her eyes were full of contempt for all living beings and those in power.

She sneered and curled the corners of her lips, "How can you obey the law if your stomach can't be filled?" Ordinary people are diligent all their lives, but they just want to have food to eat when they are hungry, clothes to wear when they are cold, and a piece of tile on their heads......

Do you know how many people have died in the three years of drought? How many families have died in successive battles, do you know? ”

"In the woman's opinion, for the sake of the overall situation, how can a mere untouchah be worried."

Untouchables?

Zhang Zhishu paused, and a storm was set off in her heart, but on the surface, she just lowered her head calmly and filled the small furnace with another fire.

The Tao is different and does not conspire with each other, until the porridge is cooked, the house is cleaned up, and no more words are said to the visitors.

Wei Xuan looked at Zhang Zhishu's proud back, and his eyes became deeper and deeper.

There was no word at the bottom of the mountain all night, but the official road on the mountain was turned on his back.

"Kill the Assassins! Protect the Prince! ”

In the darkness, countless Jinyu guards dressed in black clothes descended from the sky, and soon strangled the dead soldiers who were ambushed halfway.

The Great Wei Prince, who was protected by the secret guards, jumped off his horse and rushed to the edge of the cliff regardless of the obstacles.

"Help! Go down and save people! The young general who just fell down was King Jing! ”

The cold wind under the cliff was howling, and the face of the crown prince Wei Yan was extremely ugly.

King Jing is the only concubine of the former emperor and the current queen mother!

After decades of reign, the throne of the first emperor was vacant, until he met the current queen mother, who was still a fisherwoman at that time.

The first emperor ignored the civil and military opposition of the Manchu Dynasty, and also ignored the criticism of the world for his wisdom, and insisted on making the fisherman's daughter the queen.

After that, the fisherwoman gave birth to the widow of the first emperor, that is, the current King Jing who was still in the womb of the queen mother, who was awarded nine pearls, held 100,000 soldiers, and gave a fief of thousands of miles.

Although King Jing is several years younger than the crown prince, the prince still needs to respectfully call him "uncle the emperor" when he sees him, just because King Jing's status is extremely noble, and the slightest mistake will inevitably cause turmoil in the government and the opposition......

Zhang Zhishu didn't know that there was a big Buddha at home.

When she got up early in the morning, she opened the fence in the backyard, but perhaps her behavior last night was too strong, and the villagers all wanted to get water, but no one dared to come first, and they stopped under the elm money tree not far from Lao Han's house.

"Why do you think the Han family has suddenly become so powerful? cut off the tongue of the princess and the king Mazi...... In the man's place, she is a little woman. ”

"I saw her hand up and down, not even blinking her eyelids, Wang Mazi provoked her, looking for death!"

"But in the past, the little daughter-in-law of the Han family, in addition to twisting her waist in the aisle, was dressed up to go to the market to sell well, when did she have such courage and courage?"

……

Seeing the women's discussions, Liang hurriedly stopped them.

"Do you really want to be the next princess?"

The women craned their necks and silenced, and Liang Meng's son, Tie Zhu, walked out from behind the elm tree.

"Dad, it's not enough to have water, the wild vegetables nearby have long been dug up, and there is no prey in the mountains, so I'm afraid that I won't be able to survive this winter without food."

As Lizheng, Liang Meng didn't know that the disaster in the village was severe, but he didn't squeak, but deliberately waited for his son to say it.

Tie Zhu was encouraged, and his heart became more and more determined.

"Dad, I want to go to Liaoxi City to ask for food, the city lord is merciful and will not care about the life and death of the people. When the time comes, I will come back with the grain delivery team, and the people will be in the food, and this time I promise that I will not let people be robbed halfway. ”

Tie Zhu had already planned, and as soon as the words fell, the few remaining juniors in the village all walked behind him, obviously negotiated.

"My son has ambition!"

Liang Meng gripped his son's hungry scrawny shoulder, tears glistening in his cloudy old eyes.

Just as he wanted to say two words, he was interrupted by his daughter-in-law who threw out her cloak.

"Don't go! What should I do with Niu Niu when you leave? The child is still so young, he can't live without his father! ”

Tiezhu's daughter-in-law doesn't know what righteousness is, she only knows that none of the people who went out to ask for food can come back alive.

"You promised me, our family will die together, Dad, you let others go, Tiezhu can't go, I don't have a son or a daughter, I can't lose my husband anymore, he can't go......"

Tiezhu's daughter-in-law cried bitterly, her son and daughter were too old because of Guanyin's belly, and they swelled to death, and only the eight-year-old eldest daughter was left in the family.

"Get up, get up quickly, who will go if I don't go? Where are there still a few strong laborers in the village! ”

The iron pillar dragged hard, but his daughter-in-law was like crazy, and she cried and disagreed anyway.

"Alright, stop crying, I'll go."

Zhang Zhishu was shocked, and saw her standing not far from the crowd, with a calm look on her face.

"Sister-in-law, it's not like there is no one in our village, Yu Gong, tell you a weak woman to go all the way to ask for food, even if everyone survives in the end, where is the face?

Yu private, my life was snatched back by Brother Han from Lord Yama several times, and now Brother Han is seriously injured, and he can't do without the care of his sister-in-law, and the younger brothers and sisters of the Han family are young, and only the sister-in-law can rely on them. ”

On the night of the wedding, before the red hijab was lifted, Han Yan was summoned by a military order, and Liang Tiezhu also went out with the army at that time, he didn't know the bad things that the original body had done in the past three years, so he respected Zhang Zhishu very much.

But she said: "This place is a month and a half away from Liaoxi City, and your group has neither horses nor dry food, so it is still unknown whether you can enter the city alive."

What's more, winter will fall in half a month, and if you don't have enough to eat, are you sure that everyone will live until you come back with disaster relief food? ”

"What then?"

People panicked and cried out in despair......
