Pampered Tian's Wife: The Little Weaver Girl in the Farmhouse

Chapter 621 News from the capital

The emperor issued a death order, and the ministers had no choice but to try every means to collect money to collect taxes and food, and mobilize troops and horses.The national treasury was empty. Although the Chu family had stolen a lot of gold and silver before, they were still unable to make ends meet. There was no choice but to collect taxes from the people again.As for food, let alone, it can only be collected from the people.

At the same time as taxes and food were collected, strong men were also transferred from various places to serve as troops.Originally it was supposed to be above the age, one out of three men, but now it is over 16 years old, two men out of one to join the army.For a time, crying could be heard in every household, and no one was willing to let their men serve as soldiers.

After all this tossing, the lives of the people became even more miserable. Whether it was in the south of the Yangtze River or in the north, the people everywhere were complaining.Some families couldn't afford taxes and food, or they were reluctant to let their family members go to war, so they simply hid in the deep mountains and old forests, or directly entangled a group of people to take over the mountains and become kings, openly resisting the court.

Of course, those who were closer to the rebel army went directly to the rebel army, and at least they could make a living in the rebel army.Both left and right are going to fight on the battlefield, why do they have to be servants of the imperial court?The Han people have been oppressed for so many years, and once they rebound at this time, it will be difficult to suppress them.

Under this situation, rebel armies everywhere also took the opportunity to increase their strength, and Gao Yu's side was no exception.In just ten days or so, thousands of people were recruited, and Gao Yu was so happy that he couldn't close his mouth from ear to ear.

For a while, Gao Yu was very busy.On the one hand, people were sent to send letters to invite the leaders of the rebel army from all over the place to come to the alliance. On the other hand, they arranged people to be busy receiving those young and strong men who came to join them, and they took the time to train soldiers.

Naturally, these things have nothing to do with Qiaoyun. After Qiaoyun moved to a new residence, he sent someone to inquire about the news, and waited for Mo Anyuan and others to arrive.

Finally, on February [-]th, Mo Anyuan brought Chun Tao Xia He and others to Anqing Mansion.Chuntao Xiahe was very excited when she saw Qiaoyun, and she wanted to kneel down to salute, but was stopped by Qiaoyun. "It's good that you can come over safely. These days, I have suffered for you."

These two maids are loyal, Qiaoyun really can't worry about them, and now they meet, she can't help being a little excited. "Is everything okay on the road? The world is in chaos now, and I've been worrying about it all the time. I don't know if you will encounter any danger."

The mood of Chun Tao and Xia He became a little calmer at this time, "Thank you Madam for your concern, the journey was relatively safe, but the inspections everywhere were stricter. Fortunately, Big Brother Mo and the others are here, and nothing went wrong."

As Chuntao said, she couldn't help but look back at Mo Anyuan, and there was endless affection in that look.These two people made a marriage contract before, and it was basically Qiao Yun's decision. The two didn't have many opportunities to get along. Although they had some good feelings for each other, they were still not close.On the contrary, the support in adversity along the way made the relationship between the two of them heat up quickly, and now they look like glue.

Mo Anyuan looked at Chuntao with a somewhat obsessive gaze, the two of them met each other with happy smiles on each other's faces.Qiaoyun was also very happy to see this situation.Chun Tao is her right-hand man, not to mention Mo Anyuan, he is also a rare talent, these two people can be regarded as a talented couple, a very suitable couple.

"Brother Mo, how is the capital? Is there any news about the Chu family?" Qiao Yun asked casually.Chu Kangsheng and the eldest princess were rescued by her, but the rest of them were still in the capital.Qiaoyun didn't care about Chu Kang'an's three brothers, and the old lady secretly tipped off the news that the three brothers might not be a good thing either.There must be their shadows in this, and Qiao Yun is too lazy to care about their life and death.

On the contrary, Chu Kanghe and Chu Kangtai were implicated innocently. Qiaoyun felt a little sorry, and asked Mo Anyuan to go back to the capital to inquire carefully.In addition, is there any news about the servants of the Chu family?

Mo Anyuan was not idle when he returned to the capital. Besides settling the property there, he also asked about everything Qiaoyun wanted to know.Hearing Qiaoyun's question at this time, he said it in detail. "Master, the entire Chu family was also implicated, and all their homes were confiscated and thrown into prison. However, the emperor did not kill them, but sent all the members of the Chu family to the army in Mobei."

"I heard that the second and third masters of the Chu family have been calling for grievances, saying that they should be regarded as meritorious and should not suffer such crimes. But it is useless. They shouted like this, but they were scolded by the people in the capital. Five masters and six Master and others didn't make any movement, they were just taken away."

"I've already ordered people to follow me and secretly take care of the family members of the Fifth and Sixth Masters, and try to help as much as I can, so that they will suffer less. After the news has passed, if the master is really worried, we will find a way Rescue people." Mo Anyuan's work is relatively safe, and Qiao Yun doesn't need to order many things, everything is arranged properly there.

"Our property in the capital is fine. Master and the third and fourth are staying behind. No matter what troubles there are in the capital, they will find a way to send the letter. However, there are many refugees along the way. I heard that The emperor was furious when he failed to send troops to encircle and suppress Anqing last time, but this time he had to send [-] troops. As a result, the imperial court extorted money in order to send troops, and the people suffered so much that many people fled from their homes."

When Qiao Yun heard this, her heart felt a little heavy. On the surface, all this seemed to be the fatuous and violent emperor of Daliao, but in the final analysis, it had something to do with her.If it weren't for her, the emperor would not have been so angry, and he would not have repeatedly deployed troops, so that people's livelihoods withered and people were displaced.

However, at this moment, what else could she say, and she could only sigh heavily, "I have caused everyone to suffer, if it wasn't for me, perhaps we wouldn't be in the situation we are today."

Seeing Qiao Yun's depression, everyone couldn't help but persuade them, "My sister is wrong, the emperor of Daliao is a fool, and the older he gets, the more powerful he gets. Even if there is no sister, have the people suffered less these years? Not to mention the pacification of Nanshao last year, many problems have been exposed, and the people will not be able to live a peaceful life if the court is still alive."

Qing Lei suddenly spoke, and these words clearly expressed the dissatisfaction in his heart, "In this world, a capable person should come out to lead, and just drive the Liao people back to the grassland. If this is not the case, there will be no peaceful days in the world. These years, the Han people have suffered too much, and they really should resist."

Qing Lei's words made Qiao Yun stunned, she really didn't expect that Qing Lei, as a member of the princess mansion, would say such a thing. "These things should be done by those who are ambitious and capable. We can save our strength now and wait for Siyuan to come back. I really don't ask for the rest."
