Chapter 300 0297 [Your father is stupid in cultivating immortality]

After leaving the Agricultural College, Han Zhen went on a tour of the surrounding countryside.

Every village looks prosperous and lively.

It wasn't until the evening that I returned to Shaoyang Palace under the afterglow of the setting sun.

I thought I could escape from wandering around all afternoon, but I didn't expect that I was caught by Zhao Fujin and the girls as soon as I returned to the harem.

After forcing themselves to eat a plate of pastries and giving high praise, the little girls left with satisfaction.

night.

Zhao Fujin was like a little kitten, huddled in Han Zhen's arms.

The little girl followed Han Zhang's example and gently stroked her belly.

I don’t know how long it took, but Zhao Fujin said softly: “Husband, do you think this slave is pregnant with a baby?”

Han Zhen replied: "No."

"How can such a thing be said accurately? My husband is not a doctor, how can I be so sure?" Zhao Fujin pouted, somewhat dissatisfied with Han Zhen's answer.

Ah!
If you can get pregnant, then you are really a ghost.

In order to prevent Zhao Fujin from getting pregnant, Han Zhen stayed outside every time.

For a little girl who is only 16 years old, pregnancy is too dangerous, and she may die twice.

Seeing that he didn't speak, Zhao Fujin said to himself: "Nuguan Suyi Youyou and the others are still virgins. They have been together for such a long time, and it's time for my husband to be happy with them. These sisters all have lovely temperaments. Don’t be left out in the cold.”

Han Zhen explained: "They are still too young. Let's talk about it in a few years."

Zhao Fujin retorted: "Not too young. Many of my father's concubines are younger than them."

Song Huizong is really a beast!
Han Zhen cursed secretly in his heart, and then said softly: "Your father is stupid in cultivating immortals. How can such a young woman have sex, let alone give birth to a child, if her body is not even long?"

Zhao Fujin sighed slightly: "Father has been a little strange recently. He wrote a letter to me a while ago. It was so confusing that I couldn't understand what my father wanted to say."

Married daughters, spilled water.

Before leaving the palace, Zhao Fujin also made a solemn promise to persuade Han Zhen not to rebel.

Now, it has long been forgotten.

Han Zhen loved her very much, and she was not restricted by her parents-in-law. She was the largest in the harem. She played and played with a group of little sisters all day long, and her life was very happy.

"It's late at night. Let's go to bed early. We have to go back to Linzi tomorrow."

"Ah."

Zhao Fujin responded obediently and slowly closed his eyes.

The next day.

Han Zhen took Zhao Fujin and a group of female relatives, as well as a group of personal guards, and set off for Linzi.

During the Cold Food Festival, it is traditional to worship ancestors.

The Chinese people respect their ancestors far more than the gods and Buddhas in the sky.

A person who believes in Buddhism may only feel sad for a while when he hears that Taoist temples and temples have been destroyed.

But if he learns that his ancestral grave has been dug up, let's see if he will fight with a knife.

……

……

Under the scorching sun.

A group of ragged refugees walked along the official road.

Among the crowd, two people stood out.

Although they were equally embarrassed, the two of them were dressed in Confucian robes with wide robes and long sleeves. They had fair faces and extraordinary bearing. It was obvious at a glance that they were scholars.

These two people were Xu Cun and Liu Mianzhi.

Fujian is thousands of miles away from Shandong, and the road is difficult and dangerous.

It was okay at first. The two of them were quite famous in Fujian, and many caravans and official ships were willing to take them for a ride.

But since arriving in Zhejiang, everything has changed.

The official ships didn't buy it at all, so they could only spend money to rent civilian ships.

As a result, they encountered water bandits halfway through the journey. The two of them were alert and jumped into the water in time to escape.

Although most of the property was lost, his life was saved.

After this disaster, Xu Cun and Liu Mianzhi no longer dared to take a boat, and bought an ox cart with the only money they had.

It was unlucky for the two of them that a few days after leaving, while sleeping in the wilderness, the old cow pulling the cart was bitten by a big insect.

Just when the two were at a loss, they happened to meet a group of refugees fleeing famine. After a conversation, they learned that these refugees were going to Shandong. They were overjoyed and joined the ranks of the refugees.

A few days later, we finally arrived in Chuzhou (Huai'an).

A few dozen miles further north along the official road, the Huaiyang Army entered the border of Shandong.

Refugees continued to join in the process, and the initial team of 30 people has now expanded to several hundred people.

Liu Mianzhi said with a sad face: "Jiangnan and Liang Zhejiang were prosperous places in the Song Dynasty, but along the way, what I heard and saw was simply horrifying. The people were in poverty and had no means of living. This is even the case in Jiangnan and Liang Zhejiang. The people in other states and roads only I’m afraid it will be even more miserable.”

Xu Cun sighed: "Your Majesty allowed Zhu Meng to set up the Huashi Gang in the south, and he imposed tyranny for many years, and Fangla revolted. Although the imperial court dispatched the Western Army to suppress it quickly, the bandits were like a comb, and the soldiers were like a grate. There were [-] Western troops. How can the people get any favors when they cross the border?"

While the two were talking, the old man on the side agreed: "Bandits go through like a comb, soldiers go through like a grate, these words of a high official have touched my heart."

Liu Mianzhi asked: "Has this happened to my father-in-law?"

The old man said excitedly: "Don't talk about me anymore. Ask these people, who among them has not been bullied by those thieves and the army. In the second year of Zhenghe, there was a banditry in our county. Strong men attacked the county seat, and the imperial court sent troops to suppress it. But those Qiu Ba , more ruthless than the bandits, snatching everything they saw, even pots and pans. The poor old man’s eldest son argued with Na Qiu Ba, but was chopped with a knife, and pretended to be a bandit and took it in exchange for military honors. "

"Ugh!"

Xu Cun and Liu Mianzhi sighed, not knowing what to say.After a moment of silence, Xu Cun asked, "Does my father-in-law still have any relatives at home?"

The old man shook his head: "No, none. There was a severe drought last year, and my mother-in-law and grandson also starved to death."

There was deep despair in his calm tone.

The heart is as gray as death, nothing more than that.

Liu Mianzhi asked again: "Why do I want to go to Shandong? I heard that the rebels have taken over that place. The soldiers and bandits are in power, and it is very chaotic."

"Fuck your shit!"

The old man cursed vulgarly, and then hurriedly explained: "Officials, don't blame me. I'm not scolding you. Don't listen to the nonsense of those officials. Shandong is very good now. As long as you go there, you will be given land and land. Where are the money, food, and paper clothes?”

Xu Cun looked curious and asked, "How does my father know?"

The old man said matter-of-factly: "At first, the people from Wangcun went there first, and not long after, a few people quietly came back and said it was very good there. Then everyone went, and all the surrounding villages were gone, even those in the county. Everyone is running to work. We are already too late. Those who went first probably think that the crops in the fields have sprouted by now."

Hearing this, Xu Cun and Liu Mianzhi looked at each other.

How could they not know that this was Han Zhen's method?

After walking for a while, the refugee team stopped to rest.

Taking advantage of this time, many refugees went into the woods on the roadside to dig wild vegetables and fruits to eat.

Xu Cun and Liu Mianzhi also joined them. They were now penniless, they had finished eating their dry food yesterday, and they were hungry now.

Xu Cun had never farmed before, so how could he know which wild vegetables were edible? Fortunately, Liu Mianzhi had farming experience.

So Xu Cun followed Liu Mianzhi, and he followed Liu Mianzhi to dig whatever he wanted.

After a while, the two of them returned to the roadside carrying some wild vegetables and cooked them in small earthen pots.

The taste of wild vegetables without salt or other seasonings is hard to describe.

Xu Cun took a bite and stopped eating.

Feeling the hunger in his belly, he had no choice but to take up a book to distract himself.

Liu Mianzhi advised: "Brother Chengsou, please eat more. We are still dozens of miles away from Shandong, and I don't know how many days it will take to get there."

"Okay."

Xu Cun thought about it and thought it made sense.

The two of them gathered in front of the small earthen pot, boiled wild vegetables in plain water and ate happily.

After eating some wild vegetables, I finally had something in my stomach, which made me feel less uncomfortable.

"Bah!"

Suddenly, there was a bang.

Immediately afterwards, more than twenty bandits emerged from the nearby forest and surrounded them.

These bandits were also dressed in rags. The leader was sturdy and held a steel knife. Some of the remaining bandits held simple knives, and some simply had sharpened bamboo poles.

There was a sudden commotion in the refugee team, and Xu Cun and Liu Mianzhi secretly said something bad.

The bandit leader played a trick and said loudly: "I only ask for money and food, without harming life. Hand over the money and food obediently, and I will not embarrass you and wait."

Hearing this, the old man who had spoken to Xu Cun stood up and said with a bitter look on his face: "Hero, how can we have any money or food? We are all miserable. I beg you, my dear man, to be noble and give us a way to live." "

After looking at the group of refugees up and down, and then at the wild vegetables in their earthen jars, the bandit leader cursed: "Straight thief, you are so unlucky to meet a bunch of poor people!"

"Third brother, there are some young ladies who are quite handsome."

At this moment, a bandit suggested.

"Snapped!"

The bandit leader slapped her back and scolded: "Have you forgotten how your sister died? If we rape women, what's the difference between us and those corrupt officials?"

"Third brother, I was wrong."

The bandit covered his face, not knowing whether it was because of the slap or thinking of his sister, tears welled up in his eyes.

This conversation actually made the refugees feel at ease a lot.

Looking back now, we can see that there are old, young, and even a few women among the bandits.

These are no bandits, they are clearly another group of refugees.

The bandit leader sat down on the ground and asked, "Where are you going?"

"A good teacher knows that we are going to Shandong and voted for County Magistrate Han." The old man replied truthfully.

At this time, the bandit leader discovered Xu Cun and Liu Mianzhi. They were very popular and stood out among a group of refugees. He couldn't help but ask: "Why are there two scholars?"

Hearing this, Xu Cun cupped his hands and said: "The two of us came from Fujian to visit friends in Shandong. We didn't want to be attacked by bandits on the way and were penniless. We happened to meet my father-in-law and others who were also going to Shandong, so we chose to go with them. It was a good thing. Take care of me."

"Oh!"

After hearing that the two of them were penniless, the bandit leader lost interest.

He didn't think Xu Cun would lie. If he was really rich, would it be his turn?

I'm afraid I'd have been robbed by these refugees.

Money moves people's hearts, don't think these refugees are so simple.

The old man asked: "This good man, can we go?"

"and many more!"

The bandit leader stood up and said, "We are also going to Shandong."

The old man said happily: "This is the best thing."

With this group of people joining, they won't be afraid of tigers, leopards and wolves at night, and they will be able to fight other bandits when they encounter them.
