Enter the Room

  Chapter 374

   "Yuan Yunzhong!" Zhao Laowu stared at Yuan Yunzhong with bloodshot eyes.

   "It seems that you know me." Yuan Yunzhong said slowly, drawing the bowstring again.

   "Let's go!" Zhao Laowu shouted at his nephew, but after a few falcons, he fell from the sky again like a bird with broken wings.

  Yuan Yunzhong handed the bow in his hand to the accompanying guard, and said coldly: "Ask me clearly, where are the others?"

  His memory has always been good.

  This Zhao Laowu should be the person in charge of Zhaojiaji when he and Song Jiyun lost their way.

   There are many people in Zhaojiaji.

   What Zhao Laowu is doing is rebellion and treason, and he must be a confidant with him.

   And when Lord Bai and Lord Xiang heard the news that Yuan Yunzhong had personally captured the bandit leader, they all opened their mouths in surprise.

   "Did anything come out of the trial?" Mr. Xiang asked the captain who came to report the letter with concern.

  The lieutenant saluted, and said respectfully: "No. Master Yuan handed him over to Master Chen. Master Chen inherited the Jinyiwei from his ancestors, so he should not fail Master Yuan's entrustment."

  Master Xiang breathed a sigh of relief, and discussed with Master Bai: "Should we write a memorial and send it to the cabinet. The quelling of the refugee riot is also something worth celebrating."

  But it also makes people feel that Yuan Yunzhong's previous persistence was correct.

Lord Bai pinched his beard, and said in a strange tone: "It's time to make a statement to the cabinet. Lord Yuan is wise and powerful, and put an end to the chaos of the refugees. I just want to ask the elders what to do with the 50,000 refugees? This daily food and drink is not a small amount. It can't just be raised in Shijingshan like this?"

   It is precisely because they do not know how to deal with these matters that even though most officials in the DPRK and China feel that they should appease, they cannot justly oppose the Ministry of War.

   Most of the discussions between the DPRK and China will develop into whoever raises the problem and whoever is responsible for solving it.

  They have no way to deal with the 50,000 refugees, and naturally they have no way to oppose the decision of the Ministry of War.

   Lord Xiang couldn't help frowning, feeling that Lord Bai is still thinking about the gains and losses of the Ministry of War, and his appearance is too ugly. His tone couldn't help being a bit colder, he said: "Since Mr. Bai has other plans, then I won't ask Mr. Bai to do the book together."

  Master Bai has a higher official rank than him, if Master Bai plays tricks with Yuan Yunzhong, it will be really difficult for him.

He simply said: "Then you rest first, I will go to Master Yuan to have a look. This Sun Yan didn't expect that we would lead troops to suppress the riots of the refugees. He wanted to strengthen the walls and clear the fields, and brought the monks of Bixia Temple to burn all the stored food. Bixia Temple is not attached to one thing, I am afraid that the Senglu Division will have to say hello. It's just that I am not familiar with the Senglu Division, and I don't know if Master Yuan is familiar with it."

   As he spoke, he walked out, hurried out of the meeting hall, and stayed where Lord Bai could not see, then called a passing captain and said, "Where is Master Yuan?"

  The lieutenant saluted, pointed to the Lufang not far away, and said: "Master Yuan, Lord Shi, and Lord Sun are discussing matters over there."

  Master Xiang said "Yes" and went to the room.

  Before he asked the captain to report, he heard Sun Yan say: "Chengde Mansion, Zhengding Mansion, and Baoding Mansion near the capital are all hard to find, let alone Changping and Miyun. There is simply no way to house so many refugees near the capital."

   Master Xiang shook his head secretly.

  This Sun Yan is a character, but after all, he has limited knowledge and cannot be used by Yuan Yunzhong. At most, he can only be a commander of Wanpingwei.

   "Master Yuan!" He said with a smile, and pushed the door open.

  Master Shi and Sun Yan immediately stood up and saluted.

  Yuan Yunzhong also politely asked him to sit down.

  Master Xiang was not polite, and said: "Master Yuan, have you ever thought about letting these people be registered as military households and serve in the Nine Sides?"

  Yuan Yunzhong's eyes flickered slightly, and he said, "Master Xiang, please tell me."

Mr. Xiang said with a smile: "There are only two difficulties in the resettlement of these refugees. One is that there are too many people. Even in a high-class county like Jurong, there are only 30,000 households. Now 50,000 people, even if it is They were divided into ten counties, and they were probably not resettled on idle land. After a long time, they might become refugees again. The second is that it is difficult to manage. They have not been educated for a long time. If they are resettled and their livelihood is difficult, they may be robbed and cause harm. neighbors."

"It's different to join the military households and serve in the Nine Sides." Yuan Yunzhong mused, "First, the Nine Sides are sparsely populated, and these people can open up wasteland. Second, although there have been no wars in the Nine Sides these years, there are not enough military households." .”

   "Exactly!" Mr. Xiang smiled, walked to the place where the map was hung, pointed to Xuanfu, Datong, Taiyuan and other tunnels, "Look, there are a lot of land here."

  Yuan Yunzhong nodded and said, "I'll think about this matter later."

  There are so many people, even if they are placed in Jiubian, which is a place of bitter cold, it is not that simple to move there.

  Master Xiang also knows that this is a big event, Yuan Yunzhong should discuss it with Mr. Jinghu. He changed the subject tactfully and talked about Bixia Temple.

  The Senglu Division manages the affairs of the monks. Bixia Temple is a registered temple. It was burned down by the inspectors. No matter what, they have to say hello to the Senglu Division and discuss compensation.

  Yuan Yunzhong said: "I have sent someone to the Senglu Department for this matter, and I will not blame Mr. Sun."

  When Sun Yan burned the temple, he didn't think about it at all, so he got up and thanked Yuan Yunzhong.

  Yuan Yunzhong waved his hand and said: "I can admit that you are a patrolman under your command. Wanpingwei and the Twelfth Army choose at will, let alone a talent like you. Don't worry, I will definitely give you credit."

   Sun Yan and Master Shi thanked you again and again.

Yuan Yunzhong's personal guard begged to see him, and said, "My lord, I took your handwriting and went to Langfang County. The magistrate of Langfang County immediately agreed to borrow food when he saw that it was your handwriting. When the house was receiving the grain, they began to push back and hold back, saying that they would not lend us grain until the official document from the household department arrived.”

Having said that, he raised his head and carefully looked at Yuan Yunzhong's expression, and saw that Yuan Yunzhong had no obvious anger, so he continued: "I also said that a personal friendship is a friendship, but there is no official document. What happened, petty officials like them can’t bear it. I asked to see the county magistrate again, but the concierge said that the county magistrate went to the countryside to inspect the crops.”

   That is to say, I promised well at the beginning, but changed my mind in a blink of an eye.

  Yuan Yunzhong frowned unhappily, and said, "Where are the people going to Tongzhou Granary?"

  There is a water transport granary at the Tongzhou Wharf, and the grain shipped from the south will be stored there temporarily.

  The guard faltered and said: "It is also said that the official document of the household department is required to borrow food."

  Yuan Yunzhong thought for a while, and asked Mr. Shi: "How long can the food in our hands last?"

  Master Shi said without thinking: "It can last for three days."

  Yuan Yunzhong called Xu Guangzeng to come in, and said: "I'll write a note, you can take it directly to the Supervisor of Rituals, and let Lord Qin pass it to the emperor."

  Xu Guangzeng answered "yes" repeatedly as if he had finally found something to do.

  Master Shi and Sun Yan exchanged a surprised look.

  It’s really a close minister of the emperor, so it’s okay.

  Don't even care about the cabinet, just ask the emperor for approval.

  The two have more confidence in doing things with Yuan Yunzhong.

   And what they didn't expect was that Yuan Yunzhong asked Master Shi and Xu Guangzeng to go back to the city together: "Master Shi is in charge of handling affairs, Xu Guangzeng, you just need to knock on the door."

   This is to use the face of the Dingguo government to do things for him.

  Xu Guangzengsheng was afraid that he would not be able to curry favor with Yuan Yunzhong, so he naturally said "yes" repeatedly.

  The two of them took Yuan Yunzhong's booklet and returned to the city under the **** of a team of school captains.

  But two days have passed, they have not come back, and there is no official document from the household department.

   This is not right!
