The Reborn Lady is Farming

Jiang Ze chuckled, "Oh, so it's the prefect, Shu Xiao's eyes are clumsy, I really didn't see it right now, the little eyes looked back, and the eyes were glued to the person behind you, I haven't seen you for a while, please forgive me."

   Said to be forgiven, but he didn't even get off his horse, and waved his hand directly: "My sons, open your eyes and take a closer look. Is the man behind the prefect who wears the yamen, is the money tree that is collaborating with the enemy and betraying the country."

Qian Shu was shocked, sat on the ground, and defended: "I didn't cooperate with the enemy to betray the country, I didn't." Then he hugged Wu Shancai's thigh and cried, "Sir, my lord, Xiaguan did not cooperate with the enemy and betray the country, Xiaguan is You're cowardly, you just lost the city and ran away, you really didn't betray your country, you must save me, I'm the uncle of the young master."

Wu Shancai's face was blue and white, and he reprimanded: "What are you yelling about? Go away." He turned his head and looked at Jiang Ze with anger, "Jiang Ze, you are not worthy to talk to this official, let your general come, Qian Shu is The local officials are under the jurisdiction of their own officials, and it is not your general’s turn to send and deal with them.”

Jiang Ze's face slowly sank, looked at Wu Shancai coldly, and said slowly: "Master Wu, Qian Shu is under your control, but he condoned Jin soldiers into the city, collaborating with the enemy and betraying the country involves the Ministry of War, we adults have the right to inquire. Now this money tree has not gone anywhere, so he has escaped to you. Xiguan remembers that when General Qi returned to the city to rescue, he was locked outside the city gate by the prefect. If my general did not try his best to jump to the city gate, this Xingzhou Mansion is probably also captured by the Jinbing, right?"

   Master Huang couldn't help but close his eyes, the thing he was most worried about had happened.

   Qi Xiuyuan's failure to protect the prefecture and county was his dereliction of duty, but it was also a fact that he was locked out of the city gate and missed a good opportunity. It is very likely that the imperial court would not convict him, and ordered the prefect of Wu, who ordered the city gate to be closed tightly and not let anyone enter the city, hang.

   In addition, Qian Shu is Wu Shancai's proud student, and he abandoned the city and fled. Qian Shu's concubine is now the third concubine of the family.

  Wu Shancai also broke out in cold sweat on his forehead, but he couldn't say that he was ordered by others. Once he said this, he was neither guilty nor guilty. Now he can only blame the soldiers guarding the city.

   "Come here, take Qian Shu back for questioning, Master Wu, if you have any questions, just come to Xiying and ask."

The soldiers rushed up and pulled out Qian Shu who was hiding behind Wu Shancai. Qian Shu hugged Wu Shancai's thigh tightly and cried, "Sir, save Xiaguan, Xiaguan is wronged, Xiaguan is really wrong. Innocent……"

   "Didn't you eat? It takes a long time to arrest everyone. Seeing that you have torn Wu Zhifu's clothes, don't you just pull it out for me."

   The two soldiers who came here looked at each other and worked hard together, not only pulling the money tree out, but also breaking the clothes of the prefect of Wu.

   Jiang Ze looked at the embarrassed appearance of Wu Zhifu with satisfaction.

  Qian Shu was dragged to Xiying, and when he saw the soldiers who were eyeing tigers, he bowed bitterly, "Xiaguan really didn't cooperate with the enemy and betray the country, really not."

Qi Xiuyuan paced over, circled him three times, and said with a smile: "Of course I know you can't betray the country, you don't have the ability, but you need to live in Xiying for a while, by the way, our soldiers' clothes are just right. If there is no one to wash, you should contribute to us before beheading."

  Qian Shu's legs trembled slightly, and his voice trembled, "Cut... Behead?"

Qi Xiuyuan looked at him with a smile but not a smile, "Why, do you think you can still live? Run away from the city, if you escape without a trace, you will be no one will know if you change your name and surname. Go, you should be glad that I didn't force you to admit the crime of collaborating with the enemy and betraying the country, which is the crime of punishing the Nine Clan."

  Qian Shu fell to his knees with a "thump", and felt infinite regret in his heart.

  Qi Xiuyuan snorted coldly, turned around and left, instructing Jiang Ze: "Take the people down, if you have any dirty work recently, feel free to call me."

   Jiang Ze responded, watched Qi Xiuyuan leave, crouched in front of Qian Shu, twitched the corner of his mouth, and said, "Do you know how many people died in Mingshui County?"

  Qian Shu looked at him blankly.

"Three townships, the number of people who survived in the end was less than two-thirds of the previous township, especially Qili Township, where almost all the villages were torched by the golden soldiers. If it wasn't for you who fled with most of the yamen in the end , they could have been spared, just half an hour, and another half hour, our reinforcements will arrive, you say, should you kill?"

  Qian Shu murmured: "I...I didn't mean to, I just didn't want to die..."

  Jiang Ze got up, looked at him condescendingly, and said, "No one wants to die, but because of you, so many people died, you should kill them. Before you die, you should contribute to us."

   Actually, in Jiang Ze's opinion, not only Qian Shu should be killed, but Wu Shancai should also be killed. If he hadn't locked the general outside the city gate, they wouldn't have been so passive. Why did it take so long for reinforcements to be dispatched?

   Wu Shancai panicked, looked at the disaster victims surrounded by the government office, gritted his teeth, and said, "Master Huang, why don't we take out some food to help the disaster victims? It's not a problem for them to always be surrounded by the outside."

   Ever since Mu Yangling broke the grain depot, the disaster victims refused to mortgage their land deeds, but gradually surrounded the government office and couldn't drive them away.

   There were a group of hungry victims outside. Wu Shancai couldn't sleep well at night, and he couldn't stand it after only two days.

  Master Huang knew the plan of the prefect of Wu and the squires. After hearing the words, he thought about it and said, "I'm afraid they will have opinions..."

   "I still have an opinion, the victims are not surrounded by their homes," Wu Zhifu said in a circle, "If I say they are ruthless, the interest rate set is higher than that of usury. As long as they are not stupid, who will borrow food from them?"

   "Either starve to death or borrow food, as long as they starve hard, they will naturally be subdued."

   Wu Zhifu sneered, "In addition to being soft, they will also riot, and we will be the first who live behind the prefecture to suffer."

   "Sir, why don't you mention it to General Qi and ask him to send troops to protect it."

   Wu Zhifu rolled his eyes and said, "We are both living and dying, do you think he will agree?"

   "Your Excellency didn't mention it, so how do you know he wouldn't agree?" Master Huang pointedly said, "Your Excellency will be working with General Qi for a long time in the future, and you will have to pay for next year's army."

   Wu Zhifu pondered and asked, "Do you really think it's feasible?"

   Master Huang nodded slowly, "But you can give it a try."

   "Okay, I'll listen to you," Wu Zhifu said, "Go ask someone to prepare a sedan chair, and we'll go to Xiying."

   "Sir, it's better to take a carriage. There are disaster victims on the way. It is safer to take a carriage."

   Wu Zhifu nodded again and again, "Yes, yes, take a carriage, hurry up and prepare the carriage."

   At this time, Mu Yangling was taking out the last piece of silver to Mu Shi, and sighed: "Yes, let's not talk about repaying the medicine money, now we don't lend them money."

Mu Shi collected the money and said indifferently, "We can always make money when we live, but now the most important thing is to buy more food, don't let the villagers survive from the sword of the Hu people and starve to death instead. already."

  Shu Wanniang took out a silver hairpin, "Take this one too, I can buy some more."

  Mu Shi stopped, "It's not bad for you. I bought it for you when we got married. Unless it's for the children, I won't allow you to spend it."

  Shu Wanniang bowed her head and smiled shyly, "You can buy it for me in the future, isn't it difficult now?"

   Seeing her parents show their affection, Mu Yangling felt that her teeth were sore, and covering her eyes, she said, "Oh, it's going to grow needles."
