Not far away, Xiao Yi and Nangong Yue paid no attention to Sun Xinyi. The young couple only focused on talking to each other.
"Ayue, did you see the 'letter' I left for you this morning?" Xiao Yi blinked with a smile.
Not only Nangong Yue understood it, but Lily behind her also understood it. Isn’t it the cut piece of white cloth? Thinking of the allusion to "the habit of cut sleeves", she almost laughed out loud, trying hard to hold back her laughter, her shoulders shaking.
Fu Yunhe and Han Qixia also came over. Han Qixia looked at Lily who was laughing so hard that she was confused. She really couldn't figure out what joke she heard.
Nangong Yue couldn't help laughing, and nodded with a smile: "Of course I kept the letter you gave me."
Xiao Yi's eyes suddenly lit up, and he took Nangong Yue's hand without caring about everyone's gaze, and said, "Xiao Bai said he wanted to come over to see how the food supply was going, so I came over with him." As for Well... Xiao Yi smiled and blinked again. Of course he took this opportunity to see his crown prince! As for business matters, Xiaobai is here anyway, so you don’t have to worry about it yourself.
Xiao Yi looked at Guan Yubai with a smile, feeling that he could not have been wiser in deceiving Xiaobai to come to southern Xinjiang.
Everyone has his or her own strengths, so the world’s talents are divided into scholars, farmers, industry and merchants, and each performs his or her own duties. As for him, he is good at charging into battle and killing enemies in battle. As for these tedious things, he has to leave more work to the novices!
Suddenly, Xiao Si raised his eyes to look at Xiao Yi. His cold eyes revealed a hint of sharpness and energy, as if he could see through Xiao Yi's inner thoughts.
Xiao Yi showed no guilt and gave him a bright smile.
Xiao Si turned away his face in disgust. At first he was looking at his young master, but unknowingly, his mind wandered away: He didn’t know what happened to Han Yu in the garrison, and he shouldn’t leave it to Feng Xing to take care of him. , Feng Xing has never been reliable in his work, Han Yu will definitely suffer in his hands...
Beside Xiaosi, Guan Yubai was talking cordially to an old man who had just received rice: "Uncle, I wonder how many people are in your family now?"
Although the old man didn't know Guan Yubai's identity, he saw that he had just arrived on horseback with several people. He must be from the Southern Xinjiang Army. His attitude was respectful and he replied: "Go back to the old man's house, sir." There is also a son and a granddaughter..." But the difficulty in his words could not be concealed. He once had a prosperous descendants, but after a war, only the three of them survived.
Guan Yubai was born as a general, and experienced hundreds of battles at a young age. He was able to frighten Xirong on the battlefield at a young age. He has definitely experienced the cruelty of war better than many others. Profound... He looked at the old man with gentle eyes and a kind of soothing power, and then said: "Uncle, is the rice you received today enough to feed your family for five days?"
The old man subconsciously looked at the bag of rice grains in his arms, and couldn't help but smile broadly: "Enough, enough, enough! It must be enough." When he thought that there would still be food in five days, the old man was determined. As long as there is food, everyone can survive.
The old woman who was originally in line behind the old man also received rice grains. When she saw the two talking, she couldn't help but interjected: "The old woman still has some white flour from last time at home. When she gets back, she will add corn flour. Steaming a basket of steamed buns is enough for the family to eat for five days. It's all thanks to the mercy of the prince." The old woman said happily, smiling so much that the wrinkles on her face were piled together.
The old woman's answer was much more detailed than the old man's. After listening to Guan Yubai, he had a rough idea.
Currently, food reserves are a big problem in both Yanding City and Yongjia City. Guan Yubai once read the records of the granary in Yanding City. The grain stored there is only enough to last for one month, and the grains are mainly coarse grains, with only 20% fine grains.
Previously, every time grain was distributed in Yanding City, fine grain grains were mostly distributed first, which Guan Yubai felt was inappropriate.
Fine grains are expensive, while coarse grains have a rough texture and are dry.
Guan Yubai has calculated that based on the last grain distribution standard, each household should still have extra white flour, so this time the grain distribution is mainly corn flour, sorghum noodles and other coarse grains, just as the old woman said That said, you can add some white flour and mix it together to make steamed buns, which can fill your stomach without being too difficult to swallow. After five days, you can also add some refined grains.
Furthermore, using five days as a standard to release grain can more accurately control the grain storage in Yanding City.
Let’s do this for now, and then make other plans after there is more food in the city.
The old man and the old woman each held their own bags of rice and walked away in a hurry. Guan Yu sent them off with blank eyes, and asked a few more people one after another until Xiao Yi's voice rang in his ears: "Xiaobai, how are you?"
Guan Yubai looked at the sound with a smile. Everyone led by Xiao Yi and Nangong Yue walked towards him, followed by Fu Yunhe, Yu Xiufan... and Sun Xinyi.
Guan Yubai's eyes paused on Sun Xinyi for a moment, and he said: "I had a few chats with a few elderly people... let's proceed with the distribution of rice grains as it is for the time being." As he said that, he seemed to He said with some emotion, "Nowadays, out of ten houses in Yanding City, nine are empty. Those who survived by chance have also lost most of their relatives. It is really sad..."
The few words spoken in the official language made everyone feel a little solemn and the atmosphere was a little heavy.
Xiao Yi and Nangong Yue understand Guan Yubai better than others. Guan Yubai was by no means the kind of scholar who lamented spring and autumn. He was essentially a soldier. His hatred, anger and sorrow were to demand the enemy's life in return, rather than a sigh of rebuke.
Guan Yubai is not a pretentious person, then...
Xiao Yi and Nangong Yue looked at each other in tacit understanding, planning to wait and see what kind of medicine was being sold in Guan Yubai's gourd.
Guan Yubai raised his eyes to look in the direction of the city gate and sighed: "When Master Sun and his son died fighting on this city wall, I probably didn't expect that he would not leave a single blood descendant. God has no eyes, but the Sun family is full of loyal people, but they ended up like this... If Mr. Sun had made some plans and found a reliable person to protect his direct grandson, maybe there would still be a trace of blood left in the Sun family today."
Could it be that Guan Yubai’s behavior was aimed at Sun Xinyi? Xiao Yi's heart moved, and he remembered that during last night's dinner, Guan Yubai seemed to be particularly concerned about the Sun family's affairs, and asked several more questions...especially about the Sun family's direct grandson who withered and died alone in the well.
Xiao Yi narrowed his peach blossom eyes and followed his words: "Actually, I have always thought this matter is very strange. Mr. Sun is brave and resourceful, not a reckless man who only relies on his own whim. He is really Are you not prepared at all? His grandson was only two years old, how could he die alone in a dry well?"
Hearing this, everyone around him showed thoughtful expressions. Could it be that there was something really fishy about it.
Sun Xinyi, who was standing behind, shrank her pupils and hurriedly lowered her eyes to cover the strange color in her eyes. However, her body was shaking slightly uncontrollably, but she didn't know that Guan Yubai, Xiao Yi and Nangong Yue were all He quietly observed her expression without leaving any trace.
Sun Xinyi gritted her teeth, raised her head resolutely, walked towards Xiao Yi and Guan Yubai, and saluted: "Your Majesty, Mr. Hou."
For a moment, everyone's eyes were focused on her.
Sun Xinyi's face was slightly pale, and her whole body exuded a gloomy aura, as if she was immersed in sadness.
She took a deep breath and said slowly: "To be honest, my late father also wanted to leave blood for the Sun family. Unfortunately, the Nanliang army came too quickly and surrounded Yanding City tightly in an instant. In fact, the whole city is paralyzed with wings and it’s hard to fly!”
As he said that, Sun Xinyi's face became more and more ugly, as if he had recalled something, and his lips trembled slightly, like the delicate flowers trembling in the wind and rain. If there were more men here who were as compassionate as the King of Zhennan, I'm afraid... It’s time to speak out to protect each other with compassion.
Sun Xinyi calmed down and continued: "Actually, I didn't want to live alone that day, so I decided to go to **** with my mother and sister... Unexpectedly, the white silk thread I used to hang myself broke." As she spoke, she subconsciously touched her neck, as if she could still feel the pain and heartache at that time, "I wanted to hit the wall again, but my loyal maid stopped me and advised me that since God wouldn't let me die, I Why don't you give it a try... Caiwei and I hid in the firewood pile in the woodshed for three days. Later we heard that the Nanliang people massacred the city for three days after breaking it, and the city was filled with blood..." He said , she was so choked that she couldn't speak anymore.
"Miss Sun..." Han Qixia took out a handkerchief from her arms and handed it to Sun Xinyi.
"Thank you, Miss Han." Sun Xinyi forced a smile with her eyes red, took the handkerchief and wiped the corners of her eyes, her eyes were red, and her expression could not hide the sadness.
Guan Yubai looked at Sun Xinyi calmly and said nothing more.
Sun Xinyi used the tragedy in Sun Mansion to gain sympathy from everyone, but in fact, she avoided the question of why her two-year-old nephew died alone in the dry well.
That child is her nephew, her blood relative. As an aunt, shouldn't she explore the cause of her nephew's death and ponder the strangeness in it?
But she didn't, and even couldn't wait to avoid the topic.
Why?
The reasons are really worth pondering!
Xiao Yi and Nangong Yue have also thought of these doubts. Both of them have dark eyes. Xiao Yi has a playful smile on his lips. It seems that he should find a way to find the surviving old servants in the garrison. Asked and asked...
Seeing that Guan Yubai didn't ask any more questions, Sun Xinyi secretly breathed a sigh of relief, pinched Han Qixia's handkerchief and said, "Miss Han, wait until I wash this handkerchief clean before returning it to you." She Her eyes were red, and she couldn't hide the sadness in her expression. She said anxiously, "Your Majesty, Lord Marquis, I'm going over there to help divide the rice. I'll take my leave now." She walked away quickly, as if she wanted to avoid it temporarily. Open these sad things.
Looking at her leaving figure, Guan Yubai, Xiao Yi and Nangong Yue exchanged tacit glances, but they all smiled and said nothing.
Lily looked at the masters and the young master with a strange expression, always feeling that something was not right.
Xiao Yi changed the topic with a smile and said: "Ah Yue, I think you are almost busy here, right?"
Nangong Yue looked around subconsciously. There were less than ten people queuing in front of the pergola. They were sparse and sparse. It must not be too busy next time.
Xiao Yi confidently held Nangong Yue's hand again and said, "Ah Yue, I'm hungry. Let's go have lunch together."
When Xiao Yi said this, Nangong Yue also felt hungry. After being busy all morning, she had not yet eaten, so she said to Lily: "Lily, go and call Mr. Yu and Mr. Chang. They have also worked hard all morning. Let the prince treat them to lunch."
Yu Xiufan came over soon with Chang Huaixi. Yu Xiufan, who was usually so indifferent, was very sensible at the critical moment. He said with a smile: "Brother, Xiao Xizi and I will go and eat something casually." Just eat, I won’t disturb you and my sister-in-law." He gave Xiao Yi an attentive and almost flattering smile, and pulled him away without waiting for Chang Huaixi to react.
Xiao Yi looked at Yu Xiufan happily and gave him a credit. Xiao Fanzi just has eyes.
Seeing this, Guan Yubai also smiled and said: "That flat food restaurant is really good, Xiaosi, why don't we go together too."
Seeing that Guan Yubai and Xiaosi had also left, Fu Yunhe wanted to follow Shan Ruliu, but was interrupted by Nangong Yue: "Ahe, are you going to eat Bianshi too?" Nangong Yue looked at it with a half-smile but not a smile. he.
Fu Yunhe touched his nose and nodded, with a rare hint of shyness on his face.
Nangong Yue glanced at Xiao Yi, these people were not all forced by his "obscene power"!
Wouldn't that be nice? Xiao Yi blinked proudly, then smiled at Fu Yunhe and said: "Xiao Hezi, I have already handed you the post asking for credit. When the imperial edict comes down, you will be the one to treat me!"
Fu Yunhe was startled, then showed a bright smile and responded: "Brother, that's natural!...Brother, sister-in-law, I'll leave first." As he said that, he grabbed Han Qixia's wrist through his sleeve, He ran away almost impatiently, shouting, "Xiao Fanzi, don't walk so fast, wait for us!"
Han Qixia was stunned, staring blankly at Fu Yunhe's big palm grabbing her wrist, feeling that her wrist was burning. She didn't react for a while.
Nangong Yue shook her head with a smile and watched them go away... She suddenly thought of Xiao Yi's "asking for credit" and couldn't help but look at him with an inquiring expression.
Xiao Yi took her soft and delicate hands and was very excited. While matching her steps and walking out of the pergola, he said with a smile: "Xiao Hezi made a lot of achievements last time, so naturally he has to let the emperor Just reward him well!"
It is certainly a good thing to ask the emperor for a reward. After all, as a general, you fight for your life and your future on the battlefield, but...
"I wonder what will happen to Ahe and Sister Xia?" Nangong Yue frowned slightly, with a bit of worry in her tone.
Xiao Yi raised his eyebrows and asked suspiciously: "What does it have to do with Miss Han?" Aren't they talking about Xiao Hezi's future?
Nangong Yue subconsciously stopped and turned to look at him, only to see him looking at her blankly, obviously not seeing anything...
Nangong Yue blinked and said with a smile: "Ayi, don't you think there is something unusual between Ahe and Sister Xia?"
"Really?" Xiao Yi shook his head naturally. In his eyes, there was only one person from beginning to end, so how could he care about other people's love and affection. If Xiao Hezi likes Miss Han, then he should find a way to marry her home. He wouldn't have to teach her as the eldest brother, right?
He shook Nangong Yue's little hand, and the two of them continued to walk forward.
Xiao Yi didn't take it seriously, but Nangong Yue still couldn't let go. He hesitated for a moment and couldn't help but said worriedly: "Ayi, do you think that if Ahe gets a reward for his military exploits this time, will the emperor give him a reward?" Marriage?"
After all, this is not the first time that the emperor has granted marriage to someone.
Nangong Yue bit her lower lip and continued: "Or, could Mrs. Fu have arranged a marriage for him in the royal capital..."
If this is true, Han Qixia's situation will be even more embarrassing...
Nangong Yue was afraid that Han Qixia would be hit again.
This time, Xiao Yi stopped and Nangong Yue looked over in confusion, but Xiao Yi tapped his forehead with his index finger.
"Stinky girl, you have too little confidence in Xiao Hezi." Xiao Yi smiled brightly, "Xiao Hezi seems a little careless on the surface, but he is actually a very independent person. I won’t let anyone manipulate me, otherwise..."
He paused deliberately and deliberately, until Nangong Yue raised his eyebrows eagerly, then he continued: "Otherwise, he wouldn't be smart enough to choose to come to Southern Xinjiang with me, right?"
As he spoke, he raised his eyebrows proudly and with high spirits.
Nangong Yue gave him a helpless look and told him about business, but he was nice, and started bragging about himself again!
Xiao Yi looked at Nangong Yue with an innocent face. What he said was the truth. He, the elder brother, could not be more kind to his younger brother.
For example, Xiao Yi had actually sent the document to Fu Yunhe on an urgent basis from Sibaili 20 days ago. Now, the document had just arrived in the hands of the emperor.
The emperor read the book over and over with great joy, and said to Eunuch Liu who was waiting on the side: "Brother He is worthy of being taught by my little aunt. He is as brave and good at fighting as my little aunt! Huairen, what do you think? How should I reward him?"
Eunuch Liu was the most attentive and said jokingly: "Sir Mr. Fu has made many military exploits in recent years. Your Majesty, you must reward him well."
The emperor laughed happily and said proudly: "Brother He is a descendant of our Han family! And Huaijun, he has the blood of his father in his bones! ... It's a pity that Huaijun's child ."
Speaking of Han Huaijun, the emperor couldn't help but sigh slightly.
The emperor had a headache when he thought of the things that had happened in Prince Qi's house in recent days.
Han Huaijun has come to him several times to beg him to be released, but the emperor is always reluctant to let him go. He must say that Han Huaijun is the most outstanding boy among the children of the clan, and the emperor originally wanted to keep him by his side. If you educate him well, he can be Xiaowu's right-hand man in the future.
It’s just that Prince Qi’s Mansion has been getting worse and worse day by day. Keeping Huaijun as a child would only make him suffer.
"It was better for me to take the initiative and straighten Huaijun's mother!"
Having said that, at that time, the emperor himself was only a prince, so how could he go beyond his parents to decide on his younger brother's marriage.
Eunuch Liu smiled and poured the emperor a cup of tea.
Eunuch Liu actually felt very sorry for Han Huaijun, seeing such a father, aunt, and younger brother.
"Huairen, look at Brother He, that kid is still very popular in Southern Xinjiang. Should I just send Mr. Huai to Southern Xinjiang? When he comes back with military exploits again, I can justifiably grant him A title will allow the young couple to move out and live there." The emperor said jokingly, knowing in his heart that this was unlikely.
First it was Fu Yunhe, and then Guan Yubai. If Han Huaijun was sent there again, Xiao Yi might be suspicious of him and fear him.
Fu Yunhe, Guan Yubai, and Xiao Yi have arranged well, and the emperor does not want to upset Xiao Yi's heart because of trivial matters.
It’s just Han Huaijun...
Unless he makes another contribution, he can't just reward the title and mansion.
The emperor rubbed his eyebrows, and the more he thought about it, the more headache he got. Not only Han Huaijun, but also Fu Yunhe gave him a headache. With Fu Yunhe's military exploits, it was still not enough to get a title.
What should I reward?
Gold, silver and jewelry... my aunt’s house is not in short supply either.
While the emperor was distressed, there was a knock on the door outside the royal study. Eunuch Liu went over and received the message from the young eunuch, and reported to the emperor: "Your Majesty, Master Cheng is asking for an audience."
The emperor put down the fold in his hand and said: "Xuan!"
Not long after, Cheng Qiusheng, the Minister of Rites, was admitted to the imperial study. After a great ceremony, he reported: "Your Majesty, I have already drafted a title. I hope the emperor will choose it personally."
The emperor summoned his cabinet ministers the day before yesterday to discuss the matter of enfeoffing three adult princes.
The edict establishing the fifth prince as the crown prince has been issued. Although the fifth prince is still just a prince before all the rituals are completed, everyone in the court has already regarded him as a prince. Now that the crown prince has been decided, it is natural for the other princes to be entrusted with titles, and the cabinet has no objections. So today, the Minister of Rites came to show the emperor the title he had prepared.
