Chapter 918 Rebellion (2)
With the help of the Northwest Army, the refugees under the city of Linzhou don't have to go hungry for the time being. However, everyone has a sense of crisis. Ye Jiuyun made a request to Li Jun, hoping to bring everyone into the northwest territory.
Liu Tienan got the news and refused without thinking. The reason is also very simple, he didn't get the order, so naturally he couldn't let them in.
Gu Li was very dissatisfied and said: "These people really push their feet. They have been given food and medicinal materials, and now they want to enter the city? What if the plague is brought in?" He is not sympathetic, but Li Jun and others came out The city is not allowed to come back, let alone let these refugees enter the city.
Liu Yongnan can understand this very well. The so-called relying on others is worse than relying on yourself, if you can go to the city and find a job in the city, you can survive. But not necessarily outside the city, no one knows when the rescue will run out. Seeing that winter is coming, these people are naturally anxious. Liu Tienan said: "They also want to find a way out."
Gu Lidao: "Then what should we do now? Report this matter to the princess? What if the princess agrees to let them enter the city?" In the past, in Gu Li's mind, Yuxi was a soft-hearted person, but after this exile incident, she became even more so. confirmed.
If there is no plague among the refugees, maybe the princess will let these people enter the city. But now, he is not worried. Liu Tienan said: "The princess will not joke about the lives of more than 100,000 soldiers and hundreds of thousands of people in Linzhou City."
Gu Li nodded and said, "Yes."
Six days later, Liu Tienan received a personal letter from Yuxi. Only for confidential matters, Yu Xi would write letters.
Seeing that Liu Tienan's face was not quite right, Gu Li's heart jumped: "Wangfei agrees to let these refugees enter the city? General, this is not acceptable. Let these people enter the city, in case they bring the plague, we and the people in the city But it's dangerous."
Liu Tienan glanced at Gu Li and said, "Don't worry, the concubine did not allow these refugees to enter the city."
Gu Li let out a long breath, he was really scared to death just now. You must know that his wife and children are in Linzhou city! If these refugees were allowed to enter the city, his wife and children would be in danger.
After calming down, Gu Li asked: "General, it's not about the refugees, so why are you in such a difficult situation?"
Liu Tienan didn't say anything more, just said: "Let Li Jun go back to the city at night, I have something to explain."
"Ah?" Gu Li asked after being surprised: "General, didn't you say that Li Jun will not be allowed to return to the city until the plague is resolved?" At that time, he was also afraid that Li Jun would bring the plague into the city.
Liu Tie pinched Yuxi's letter and said, "One moment and another moment." Li Jun stayed outside for so long, so he should know the situation of those refugees very well, and Li Jun would do the best for what the concubine told him.
Seeing this, Gu Li knew it was a confidential matter, so he didn't ask any more questions.
Li Jun had no contact with patients infected with the plague, so he had no psychological burden to return to the city. But because of Liu Tienan's words before, he also murmured in his heart before meeting Liu Tienan. Liu Tienan is an uncompromising master, if there is no important matter, he will not let himself come back.
Liu Tienan didn't beat around the bush, and when he saw Li Jun, he said directly, "Before you mentioned a person named Ye Jiuyun in your letter, saying that this person led other people to manage all the refugees. Please tell me about this person in detail." Liu Tienan There are so many people in the private camp, if there is no one in charge, they would have become a mess long ago.
Li Jun didn't think too much about it, and immediately told the details of Ye Jiuying: "Ye Jiuying is from Jinzhou, and his family used to have a wealth of wealth and a thousand acres of fertile land. He has a bold personality, is willing to do good things, and has made many friends. .Because he is not suitable for studying, so his father found him a job in the guard."
Liu Tienan was a little surprised, and asked: "Since his family is so rich, why did he escape here?" The refugees are usually poor people who have not eaten their last meal.
Rich people like Ye Jiuying are not among them. Unless, something serious happened.
Li Jundao: "Ye Jiuyun offended the head of the guard and was framed for his life. The Ye family spent all their money to save his life. In order to avoid further persecution, their family returned to their hometown. If they come to their minds, they will touch It’s time for a drought.” When the family’s wealth was exhausted and there was a drought, they had no choice but to flee the famine.
Liu Tienan asked: "I know it's for something, but his immediate boss framed him?" The situation must be clarified before deciding whether to use this person.
Li Jun hesitated and said: "I heard that the man fell in love with Ye Jiuying's wife. It is said that Ye Jiuying's wife is beautiful and beautiful, and she is a famous beauty in Jinzhou City. I also heard about these things, yes Not really, I'm not sure."
Liu Tienan asked: "Is his wife also outside the city?"
Li Jun shook his head and said: "No. I asked Ye Jiuyun, and he said that his wife fell ill not long after returning to the country. This should be true, because Ye Jiuyun mentioned that his wife just had a look on her face. sad." According to Li Jun's speculation, Ye Jiuyun's wife should really have died of illness. If he was trampled to death, as her husband, Ye Jiuyun would not only be sad, but angry.
Liu Tienan nodded and asked, "Except for Ye Jiuying, where are the others? For example, the Lin Xun you mentioned." Because Li Jun recorded what he saw and heard every day and sent them back to the city, he also knew about things outside the city. be clearer.
Li Jundao: "Zhu Xun is also from Jinzhou. His father is a teacher. He doesn't like to study. However, he has a bold personality, is righteous, and is very popular."
After thinking for a while, Li Jun said another person: "there is another man named He Daman. This man used to be a butcher. Kong Wu is powerful and can handle a good knife." He Daman is Ye Jiuyun's capable man, Help Ye Jiuyun suppress those disobedient people and maintain the stability of the disaster camp.
The two talked for most of the night, and then Liu Tienan sorted out what Li Jun said and wrote it into a booklet and sent it to Haocheng.
This day, looking at Yu Xi who looked tired again, Brother You felt very distressed. Walking over, Brother Yu took her hand and said, "Mother, you should have a good rest. Just leave the outside matters to the people below."
Yuxi touched Brother Yu's head and said, "You can't leave everything to the people below." The people below can carry out her orders and be responsible for specific matters, but she still needs to make decisions. If you leave everything alone, it won't be long before you will be empty. But Yu Xi would tell Brother Hao these words, but not Brother Yu.
Brother You hugged Yuxi, and said with a bitter face: "Mother, but I'm worried that you will get sick if you continue like this." What he hates the most is that his mother is sick. The last time Yuxi fell ill, it scared him too much .
Yuxi hugged Brother You in her arms, and said with a smile: "I know that my family, Ayou, is filial, but don't worry, mother doesn't get sick so easily. Besides, your father will come back soon. When your father comes back, mother will not I'll be so tired." When Yun Qing came back, not only would she be able to help her share part of the government affairs, but she would also have someone to talk to, and she would be able to relax from the inside out.
Brother Yu muttered: "I don't know when Daddy will come back." It's been so long since he arrived, it's really slow.
Yuxi explained: "Your father was injured and couldn't come back on horseback." It must not be so fast in a horse-drawn carriage.
The triplets never knew about it. Brother Rui hurriedly asked: "Mother, is Dad injured? Where is the injury? Why didn't you tell us before?"
Yuxi said: "I was afraid that you would be worried, so I didn't dare to tell you. But don't worry, your father's injury is not serious, and he's almost recovered now."
Brother Rui let out an oh, looked at Yuxi and said depressedly: "Mother, why do you keep hiding things from us?"
Yuxi can't tell the truth, she just smiled and said: "Isn't it because you are worried!"
Brother Yu said: "Mother, you are not only afraid that we know we are worried, but you also think it is useless to tell us, so you don't tell us, right?"
It is not a good thing for a child to be too smart and precocious.
Brother Yu said: "Mother, I wrote the letter to ask Dad to come back earlier. If I knew that Dad was injured, I wouldn't have urged him to come back."
Yuxi really didn't know about this, and immediately asked in surprise: "You wrote to urge your father to come back? Why?"
Brother You said: "My mother is busy from morning to night every day, so I want Dad to come back early so that you don't have to be so tired. But if I knew that Dad was injured, I wouldn't have written this letter."
Yu Xi didn't blame Brother You, this child was also filial: "You only see that mother is working hard, but you don't know that your father is not easy. In order to give us a stable environment, he has been fighting here and there all these years. I don’t know how many injuries he suffered. Two years ago, he fell into a coma in the rain, which was caused by old injuries.” After speaking, he tapped Brother Yu’s forehead and said, “Especially you, it’s fine if you were ignorant when you were young. Now that you're older, you can't always make your father angry, you know?"
Brother You readily agreed: "Mother, don't worry, I won't make Dad angry anymore." When he was whipped that year, he hated it so much that his teeth itch, but after these years, he didn't care about those things. forgotten.
Just as she was talking, she heard Meilan walk into the room and say, "Princess, General Liu has a note to deliver." Because Yuxi specially instructed that if there is a note from Liu Yongnan, report it back immediately.
Yu Xi patted Brother You, and said with a smile: "Mother still has things to deal with, you go back and do your homework."
Brother Yu didn't bother, stood up and said: "Mother, you should go to bed early so you don't stay in the middle of the night again."
Yuxi replied with a smile on her face: "Okay." As for whether it can be done, it depends on whether there is any urgent matter to deal with.
It just so happened that except for Liu Tienan's notebook which was more important, the others were just trivial matters, so Yu Xi left them alone. But while taking the medicated bath, Yu Xi fell into deep thought.
Sister Quan looked at Yu Xi's appearance and didn't say a word, so as not to disturb Yu Xi's thinking.
It was still early after taking the medicinal bath, so Yuxi lay down on the bamboo couch and asked Tong Fang to give her a full body massage. Because it was too comfortable, she almost fell asleep. The reason why she didn't fall asleep was because Quan Nuan was afraid that she would catch cold, so she wouldn't let her sleep on the bamboo couch.
After getting up, Yuxi didn't feel sleepy anymore, so she simply went into the study and stayed in the study for nearly an hour before coming out.
The next day, Yuxi called Yuan Ying over and asked him to transfer some batches of weapons to Linzhou City. After finishing the order, Yuxi added another sentence: "This matter must be kept secret, and no one who is not related to it should know."
Yuan Ying was a little surprised, and asked, "Why?" Although the quality of the weapons that Yu Xi drew was average, even if other generals knew about it, they would not fight for it. However, there was no war in Linzhou City, and it is puzzling to send weapons there for no reason.
Yuxi didn't explain to him, but just said: "You just do it." Let the people in Hebei and Shandong rebel, the less people know about it, the better. After all, this is not something glorious, even if it is discovered later, it must be denied.
Seeing this, Yuan Ying didn't ask any more questions, but bowed his head respectfully and said, "I will make arrangements." He is not Han Yuxi's confidant, and Yuxi won't tell him many things, and he has gotten used to it after so many years .
If it were changed to before, Yuan Ying would definitely complain. But ever since Yu Xi killed Yu Cong, and Yun Qing not only didn't blame her but protected her, Yuan Ying never dared to disrespect Yu Xi again. Yu Cong has been with Yun Qing for more than 20 years and has ended up like this. He is not as good as Yu Cong, and he will definitely end up worse than Yu Cong when he provokes Han Yuxi.
Yuxi is very satisfied with Yuan Ying's attitude. Yuan Ying has good abilities, but she is too cautious, but she is under her control. If she can't control it, she definitely doesn't need it.
Pickaxe City can provide weapons here, but there is no way for food, so Han Jianming can only work on this matter. Speaking of it, Han Jianming, the governor of Jiangnan, is also very tired. Yuxi would leave all the embarrassing things to him.
For Han Jianming, Yuxi had nothing to hide and told him her plan.
After Han Jianming received Yuxi's letter and read it, a smile appeared on his face. Unlike others, not only did he not feel that Yuxi was mean and shameless, but he was very pleased. Before Yuxi rescued those victims, he had doubts, and decided that Yuxi had other plans. And the fact is exactly what he thought. Instigating the disaster victims to rebel and consuming the military power of the imperial court will benefit them without any harm. The problem now is that we have to figure out a good way to transport the grain, after all, this matter cannot be put on the table.
At noon that day, Tian Yang came to see him.
Han Jianming smiled and said, "Please hurry up." Tian Yang was trained by Yu Xi, and he couldn't be more loyal to Yu Xi. Now that he begged to see himself, he must have got Yuxi's order.
Wu Kuo's business is mainly in the south of the Yangtze River, but Tian Yang's business is now spread all over the provinces, and he is involved in any high-profit industry. All the money earned went into Yuxi's private treasury. Of course, making money is only one of them. The other purpose is to inquire about news and monitor local officials.
The two talked in the study for nearly half a day, and Tian Yang didn't leave until it was getting dark.
Han Jianming sent Tian Yang away in a good mood. If this is accomplished, then attacking the capital will be more effective with less effort.
When Han Gao saw this, he knew that Tian Yang must have brought good news, otherwise the master would not be so happy. As for what was going on, Han Jianming didn't ask without saying anything.
Han Gao said: "Master, the old lady just sent someone to ask when you will come to have dinner?" Qiu Shi is used to having meals with her son, as long as Han Jianming is in the mansion, unless he can't say it, otherwise he will always be there. Waiting for him. The older she gets, the more dependent Qiu becomes on her son.
Han Jianming said: "Go now." (To be continued)
