Wei and Jin cooks

Chapter 406: Indulgence

Unfortunately, the opportunity had been lost, so Fu Zhi suggested that the emperor take control of the gates of the capital, then close the gates tightly to deny the King of Donghai entry.

The emperor hesitated. Although he now had 20,000 soldiers and horses, King Donghai left more people in the capital. He didn't think he could defeat them with this small number of people. When the time comes...

Thinking this, the emperor became timid, so he did nothing and allowed King Donghai to return to the capital. Naturally, the newly formulated decree was blocked by King Donghai again.

What a joke, if the emperor made Zhao Hanzhang the governor of Yuzhou, then what would he be who just fought with Zhao Hanzhang?

As a result, Zhao Hanzhang's official canonization was gone again. In front of all the civil and military officials, her reputation as the governor of Yuzhou was not justified, and anyone could attack her in the name of crusading against the rebels.

Not to mention the people governed by other states, there are many people in Yuzhou who are ready to take action.

However, most of them just have treacherous intentions and are not brave enough yet. After all, Zhao Hanzhang is someone who can defeat the Huns.

However, the disadvantage of not having a formal canonization was still exposed. Except for Liang State where Chen County is located, Runan County controlled by the Zhao family, Ruyin County without the prefect, and Yingchuan County, which was once under her special care, all other counties were Don't really listen to her orders.

When Zhao Hanzhang gave orders, they accepted them but did not obey them. Some counties even returned her official documents, blatantly showing their disobedience.

Zhao Hanzhang was not in a hurry when she received the returned official document. After throwing it aside, she concentrated on conducting internal affairs in the four counties she had completely controlled. Oh, and by the way, she subdued the Nanyang Kingdom, which was still obedient but was caught in the middle. .

The five commanderies once controlled by He Cishi were Liang, Runan, Ruyin, Yingchuan and Nanyang. The remaining five commanderies were all pulled over by other forces, especially Gou Xi.

Although it belongs to Yuzhou in name, it is actually at the disposal of Yanzhou.

After Zhao Hanzhang took over Yuzhou, he had been testing the intentions of various counties and states, and now the testing came out.

She would not be able to control the counties and counties that He Jishi had not controlled in the short term, and she had to conquer the counties and counties that He Jishi had already controlled.

Among them, Nanyang Kingdom, which had always been peaceful and quiet, fell into Zhao Hanzhang's eyes.

This county is interesting. The governor ordered all the counties to support Chen County. He also sent troops, but only a small number of troops and horses were sent to spread the soy sauce in the rear. A partial general took the order.

Oh, Nanyang Kingdom is the fiefdom of King Nanyang.

Only then did Zhao Hanzhang think of it. No wonder it had been so dissociated.

However, the King of Nanyang was not in the fief at this time. The prince was in Chang'an now, so Zhao Hanzhang wrote to the prefect of Nanyang, asking him to appease the people and provide relief to the victims like other counties. If he had any difficulties, he should tell her.

Of course, whether she agrees or not, and to what extent she agrees, is another matter.

Along with Zhao Hanzhang's orders, she also issued food and financial support to various counties. Zhao Hanzhang was particularly generous, so generous that he spent all the money he had on hand to distribute.

Ji Yuan and Fu Tinghan, who vaguely guessed something, remained silent, waiting for her to have an attack.

The corruption of the Jin State is from top to bottom. There are those who serve the people, but most of them are officials who serve their own interests.

Zhao Hanzhang sent a large amount of supplies and directly helped her test out a group of people who couldn't use them.

She didn't say anything, as if she didn't know that someone secretly concealed the support materials she sent and still kept them in Xinsong County.

As the first snow fell, the houses in Xinsong County also stood up a little, and even five- and six-year-old children went to the construction site to carry bricks every day.

Although they are small, as long as they are willing to come, the county government will use them and keep a list for them. As long as they complete a certain amount of work, they can receive food. They have no copper coins to take, but as the weather gets colder and colder, the ten-year-old The following children were all assigned a set of clothes and shoes and socks.

When they were given clothes, shoes and socks, the children were shocked. After confirming repeatedly that this was for them and would not be taken back, they immediately took off their tattered clothes and braved the cold wind to put on their new clothes first, and then Put on your own rags...

After getting dressed, they kicked off their straw sandals, put on their socks first, and then their shoes, and a group of children looked silly at each other.

Seeing that they were all dressed, the soldiers who had been handed out clothes immediately waved their hands to drive them away, "Go, go, don't block the way here, come, come, everyone is looking over. Today, Zhenbao Pavilion has ready-made clothes, shoes and socks for sale. Anyone who participates in the work-for-relief program can buy it with a note, the price is favorable, the quantity is limited, and it’s first come, first served.”

"All children, go aside and don't block the road here."

The children dispersed in a hurry, but did not go far. They just stood aside and looked this way.

I saw the soldiers moving out large boxes one after another, taking out sets of gray or cyan clothes, and taking out a lot of big shoes and socks and placing them aside.

Immediately, an adult came forward holding copper coins and asked the price.

Zhao Hanzhang seems to want to open Zhenbao Pavilion all over Yuzhou. The place where she sells things in Xinsong County is called Zhenbao Pavilion, which specializes in selling grain, cloth, shoes and socks.

It was just a spacious wooden shed, with everything placed in front of the shed. It would only be moved into the wooden shed at night or when it rained or snowed. It was very simple.

Zhao Kuan and others did not understand where Zhao Hanzhang had the nerve to name such a place Zhenbao Pavilion.

But the refugees here accepted it easily, because there is food here, isn't it the Zhenbao Pavilion?

This is the busiest place after work every day. Even if they don't buy food, just seeing bags of food in the wooden shed can make them feel at ease.

When they saw an adult actually coming forward to buy clothes, the children raised their heads and leaned in to listen.

The soldier said: "This set of linen clothes costs twenty cents a piece, a pair of trousers costs ten cents, and a pair of shoes costs eight cents. The socks are cheap, three pairs cost five cents."

"This set is more expensive, warmer, and costs twenty-five cents a piece..."

Children with good memories quickly wrote down the price, turned around and ran away.

He ran all the way to the brick kiln and shouted to the workers who were still working overtime: "The cold clothes are out from Zhenbao Pavilion. The cheaper ones are twenty cents each, and the more expensive ones are twenty-five cents each. The quantity is limited. First, Come first served!”

When the worker who was baking bricks heard it, he immediately ran out and asked, "Is it ready-made clothes?"

"It's ready-made clothing," the child said loudly, "It's made by female workers in Runan County. The stitching is fine and the fabric is good. It's very durable. If you want to buy it, hurry up."

Someone couldn't spare time, and there was no one at home. He immediately scanned the group of children and found a child he knew well. He immediately stretched out his hand to pull the child over, counted out the money from his arms and said, "Help me buy some." A set of clothes should be cheap. The most important thing is shoes and socks. Buy me two more pairs. After you buy them, I will give you a penny as reward."

The child agreed immediately, and after writing down what he wanted to buy, he went to look at the others, "Who else wants to buy, I can only buy five sets!"

He can only remember so much, and he can't remember too much.

The envoy said that he will have to study in the future. After studying, he will know numbers and can remember more things, so he has to save money to study!
