Good son-in-law of the Ming Dynasty

Hearing this, the secretary was shocked.

The reason why he said how great Su Mu was in front of Guan Jizong before, and asked the master of Futai to write to Su Mu to ask for relief money, etc., besides being a scholar who worships the No. 1 scholar in China, he also saved a trial. It doesn't hurt to try the psychology.

In his heart, he didn't think that this letter would have any effect after it was written.But as a native of Datong Prefecture, it is impossible to watch the refugees from the same village starve to death, right?

But now, after hearing what this soldier said, he understood Su Mu's ability.A mere ambassador of the Ministry of War and the Embassy can make his disciples a senior general of the third rank.Looking at the whole world, I am afraid that only the cabinet veterans have this kind of ability.

My family's lord and Su Ziqiao have such a good personal relationship, it should not be difficult to ask him to report to the imperial court to write relief money.

The book office felt a surge of joy, and called out Amitabha in his heart, the people of Datong were saved!

Xie Ranran made an appointment with Guan Jizong, and after he finished meeting Wang Xun, the commander-in-chief of Datong Town, he would go to the magistrate's yamen.

……

After all, Guan Jizong is a 70-year-old man, although he is only in his early fifties.After a day of helping refugees in the wild, I just feel exhausted physically and mentally.The wind blew again, sitting in the lobby, covering the fire cage with his hands, making some noises from his mouth, but he couldn't slow down for a long time.

Outside the hall, the north is still whistling, and the snow particles are getting denser.

Seeing that the official uniform on his body was made of mud and trembling so badly, Xie Ranran didn't take it seriously, and secretly said: My teacher doesn't know why, but he actually supported such a dying old man, and placed him in such an important position.If this old man has something good or bad in the future, or commits an old fool, wouldn't it cause controversy and damage the reputation of the teacher.

The mentor is good at everything, but nostalgia and empathy.As long as it is his own people, no matter how useless they are, if they just ask to come to his door, they will give some face.

Hey, sometimes it is really frustrating!

However, I thought that the prefect of Guan was just an old bureaucrat with a corpse and a vegetarian meal.

When I arrived in Datong today, I heard people say that Guan Zhifu had been comforting the people outside for many days.

Seeing his chapped face and hands again, Xie Ranran secretly admired him, but this is a person who is loyal to the king's affairs, which is different from what I thought before.

Xie Ziran was observing Guan Jizong, and Guan Zhifu was also observing the young general.

In fact, a year ago, because both of them came from Su Mu's sect, and both belonged to Su's bachelor's lineage, they also met once when they arrived in Shanxi.

When he saw Xie Ziran back then, Guan Jizong still didn't take it seriously, thinking that he was just a young man.Moreover, this kid was suddenly promoted to the high position of the third rank, and he was proud of his youth, and he naturally carried a frivolous air about him.

Today I met Xie Ziran, but I saw that this kid is taller and burlier.The person was also dark, showing a vigorous spirit, and his piercing eyes were as sharp as two knives.

In the cold weather, he only wore an unlined garment, and sat there upright, with his hand on the handle of the knife at his waist, motionless.His aura is astonishing, like a brave general who has been on the battlefield for many years.

After roasting on the fire for a long time, Guan Jizong felt some heat in his body, he calmed down, and said: "Jun Fu, if you hadn't escorted ten boats of food this time, these 2 refugees would have to stop cooking tomorrow. Thank you on behalf of the people of Datong."

As he spoke, he cupped his hands.

Xie Ranran: "It's just a matter of little effort. The governor is recommended by your teacher. If someone starves to death under your rule, the teacher's face will be disgraced."

This was a bit impolite, but Guan Jizong was not angry, but smiled wryly: "You are right, but the ten boatloads of food and grass won't last long. Just now, the government thought about whether to write a letter to Ziqiao." Letter, please help him to speak in front of the cabinet elders, to see if the court can allocate some more funds, at least we have to deal with this winter."

Xie Ranran shook his head: "Mr. Guan, I advise you not to write this letter. Even if you write it, I'm afraid that my teacher and his old man don't have time to give you a message."

Guan Jizong was stunned, and asked anxiously: "What's the matter, could it be possible to watch the people starve to death?"

Xie Ranran didn't answer this question. He frowned and thought for a moment, then said, "I pleaded with the Commander-in-Chief of the Shanxi Metropolitan Commander to make enough for the ten ships. The Commander also sold the last general. Thin noodles, just nodded and squeezed out from between the teeth."

Guan Jizong: "Thank you, Junfu. Cough, after all, you are in the palm of your hand, so the commander still has to give you some face."

The Shanxi Metropolitan Command Division has one commander who is the second-rank commander, two Tongzhi commanders from the second rank, and four commanders who are the third-rank commanders.The so-called thing, to put it bluntly, is the director of the office.And Xie is naturally in charge of the affairs, responsible for the commander of the capital and the driver, and is the fourth person in the commander of the capital.

After admiring, Guan Jizong asked again: "If you have nothing to do, then what should you do?",

Xie Ranran: "I've already thought about this matter. Because Datong borders Tatar and is on the front line of border defense, many people flee and the land is abandoned. However, there are also many military households here. It is better to disperse the [-] refugees. Dao Junhu's place."

Before he finished speaking, Guan Jizong shook his head and said: "No, the refugees are all civilian households, even if they starve to death, I am afraid they will not be willing to become military households."

Xie Ziran: "Mr. Guanfu, listen to me. I don't mean to let them become military households. I want to disperse the refugees to the military households and ask the military households to support them. The refugees will reclaim wasteland and reclaim land. The barren land that comes out is owned by the military households. I know the officers in the military households. They only have money in their eyes. As long as they see practical benefits, they will not object."

Guan Jizong's eyes lit up, and he patted the fire cage: "It turns out that it's a good idea to use work as a substitute for relief. In this way, the common people get relief, the military households get land, and the local area is prosperous. care about."

Guan Jizong became excited when he thought that more than 2 people were saved.Because of too much force, the ashes in the fire cage rose.

However, after thinking about it, Guan Jizong suddenly became depressed: "I'm afraid it still won't work. The newly reclaimed land is raw land, and it will take at least two years to have a certain output. I'm afraid the people in the military households are not willing."

Xie Ranran said coldly: "If you don't want to, you have to be willing."

"How to say?" Guan Jizong asked curiously.

Xie Ranran said indifferently: "I have just applied for a post, and I will temporarily take up the post of Shanxi Xingdu Division, directly in charge of the military household office in Datong. In an extraordinary time, we should use extraordinary means. If someone does not open his eyes and wants me to thank him, naturally he will not accept it." If he is happy, I will tell him to be unhappy for the rest of his life."
