Chapter 44

Everyone looked around, and couldn't help but widen their eyes. They saw Wang Dang and the others carrying a fat wild boar, walking here with difficulty. The size of the pig, at first glance, they thought it was a cow.

"Hey, old Wang, did you get a good product?!" Zhao Lie also exclaimed, and hurried over to help, followed by several other officials.

The exiles suddenly became excited, and they ate meat again!
At the same time, on the official road to the Jiaming River, several fine horses were walking slowly, perhaps because they ran too fast before, and the horses were panting heavily.

"The general understands that child named Lu Anran?" Xing Yijiang shook his feather fan lightly, with a little humor in his words.

Yan Qingyao glanced at him, "You really care about her."

"Look at what the general said." Xing Yijiang raised the corners of his mouth slightly, with a warm smile: "It's rare for me to meet a little girl who suits me, so naturally I should pay more attention to it."

"Heh," Yan Qingyao sneered, "Why don't you pay more attention to Princess Dorothy?"

"Since ancient times, monarchs and ministers have been different. How dare you talk about the affairs of the princess."

Yan Qingyao glanced at him, too lazy to argue with him, this man is a Confucian giant, no one can argue against him, even himself.

Seeing him keep silent, Xing Yijiang felt relieved, he won this game.

da da da da-

At this time, there was a rush of whipping, and the people immediately stopped and got off the horses. Soon, Gao Lin came to the people, stopped the horses with a yell, and then cupped his hands: "Young master."

"Have you found out?"

"Return to your son." Gao Lin cupped his hands and said slowly: "The Lu family's great grandfather is the sixth son of the No. 17 concubine of the former Minister of the Household Department. He was kicked out of the house by the Minister of the Household Department because of a mistake."

"Heh, it's all just being kicked out of the house," Xing Yijiang said with a smile, "It's really unfortunate that he still encounters Zhulian Jiuzu."

Yan Qingyao's face darkened, and sometimes he really wanted to strangle Xing Yijiang to death, but the other party was so wise that he was almost a monster, so he couldn't kill him, so he had to endure it, after all, he was a think tank he found.

Too lazy to talk to Yijiang, he asked, "Where's Miss Lu?"

"Miss Lu was born to Mrs. Liu, and she has never left her side. She almost starved to death a few days ago. After being rescued, she changed a little, and her temperament has matured a lot.

But she has never been out of the sight of her family since she was exiled, so..."

There will be no other people pretending to be, will they?
Yan Qingyao's eyelids were slightly closed, and Lu Anran's posture when he spoke kept appearing in his mind. Every word, every word, his body was straight, his attitude was neither humble nor overbearing, and his momentum even faintly showed a tendency to be equal. These are not like what an eight-year-old child possesses. .

However, according to Gao Lin's investigation, she has never left her family, and it is absolutely impossible for someone to pretend to be. But what are these changes?

Yuzui dike, Feishayan overflow and Baopingkou, etc., can an eight-year-old child really tell?

Or is it really as Xing Yijiang said, like Gan Luo?
"General, I'm afraid there will be heavy rain this day, but we still have twenty miles to reach the station."

Xing Yijiang's voice was a little teasing, and seeing Yan Qingyao's slightly gloomy face as expected, he immediately felt refreshed and won another game.

Yan Qingyao had nothing to say to Xing Yijiang, who was as naive as a five-year-old child, and rushed out first with his legs clamped between his horse's belly.

Xing Yijiang smiled, and followed closely behind.

The other guards looked at each other, and they all patted their horses and accelerated.

In the barracks, the granary, Chu Yiheng (heng) looked at the few grains and grass, and his face was slightly dignified: "Wei Xin, when will the grain planted by those prisoners be harvested?"

Wei Xin from behind cupped his hands: "General Bing, there are still two months." After a pause, he continued: "It's just that the grains are not very good, not to mention that the ears of grain are not full, and there are very few grains.

After several months of drought, the water level of the Ling River continued to drop, and there was no water for irrigation. Many fruits and vegetables died of drought.Not to mention our portion of food, many prisoners have started to eat wild vegetables.If this continues, I'm afraid..."

"Hey..." Chu Yiheng sighed deeply, raised his hand to rest on the nearest bag of rice, and said in a helpless tone, "Lingnan is prone to drought, and there are many mountains, so planting is really not easy.

There is not much food and grass now, and several groups of exiles are about to come over. This little food and grass together with those who have not been harvested is not enough.

And I don't know when it will arrive. If it arrives in November or February, it will be troublesome.

The fields can only be planted in April in spring, and the food shortage for four months is too big. "

Hearing this, Lin Chong frowned: "General, the court's food and grass should arrive soon."

Chu Yiheng smiled wryly and shook his head: "Through the layers of exploitation, how many can really reach here."

After saying this, Lin Chong and Wei Xin's faces turned ugly. If the general didn't say anything, they had forgotten that there was such a thing. What's more, the feud between the city lord of Lincheng and the general was not a matter of a day or two. It's normal to get stuck for a month or two.

Thinking about it, it's really girly...

Wohuo!

They are guarding the border with their lives, but the people behind them are always thinking about stabbing themselves, so they have to guard against it. This feeling is really...

Uncomfortable!
Lin Chong said uncomfortably: "General, it will be October soon, and the first batch of exiles will get to the end of the month anyway. I'm afraid it will be too late for farming."

"Not only is it too late, we have to find a way to ensure that they can survive this winter." Wei Xin sighed, and said slowly: "The brothers have been asked to build houses these days."

Chu Yiheng nodded: "Build as much as possible, food can't be guaranteed, at least don't let them freeze to death in winter. Go, watch more, especially the food."

"Yes."

"Yes."

After the two left, Chu Yiheng sat down slowly, looked at the last granary, and gradually frowned.

Logically speaking, the imperial court's official rations should have arrived long ago, but why hasn't it arrived yet?

Could it be that the guy surnamed He was really detained?
No, no, he didn't have the guts.

So, what is going on?

bump!
At this moment, the man with a big belly in the city lord's mansion slapped the desk hard, glared at the eight people below, and said angrily, "Say, who did it?"

No one spoke, and no one looked up, but the eyeballs rolled around.

Seeing this, He Chengguang's face trembled, and his cheeks trembled with anger: "Tell me, if you don't tell me, I will go to jail. I'm so fucking courageous, that's official food! Official food! Official food! Dare to move, why dare not admit it, ah?!"

Under the instigation of everyone, a middle-aged man with a mustache came out and said softly: "Master, there is nothing we can do about it."
