Don't move, this child bride is not easy to mess with.
Chapter 275: Stealing money, food, and attacking local tyrants
Su Mulan knew Chen Xingxue's thoughts, but she was still a normal person. Seeing Liu Yurou dragging the little baby girl, how could she bear to drive her away?
Chen Xingxue was so determined to die that he had a big hole in his head and there was no need to even ask a doctor for treatment. As his body grew colder, Su Mulan had no choice but to send someone to buy a coffin for burial.
It's unlucky that it would be a bad idea to die, but in Su's house!
This Chen Xiucai was nothing more than a piece of land when he died, and he even left three mouths for her to feed.
But Su Mulan really couldn't be tough-hearted, so she had no choice but to comfort Liu Yurou and Chen Xinglian, and promised to take them in.
Chen Xingxue's funeral affairs will be handled by two women.
Su Mulan finally had time to discuss with Xie Chengan and Jiang Ruiyan about escorting the grain to Beijing.
Xie Chengan explained his purpose of coming and said that he would take Su Mulan and abandon his official position and escape. Su Mulan smiled bitterly after hearing this. She originally had this idea too.
After all, this is ancient times. Although the household registration system is strict, transportation is not developed. You can hide in the mountains and forests without fear of being caught by the government.
With the system in place, they are not afraid of not being able to survive. She is naturally willing to live away from the world and become a couple of gods and immortals.
However, the problem lies in the system. The latest and final system task is for her to assist Xie Chengan in escorting grain and grain to Beijing!
When Xie Chengan saw that Su Mulan advocated going to Beijing and wanted to accompany him personally, he was willing to do anything. I have made preparations for the near-death situation, and since I have my sweetheart to die with me, I have no regrets.
Seeing them smiling at each other, Jiang Ruiyan seemed to be ready to live and die together. He did not dissuade them, but decided to go to Beijing with them.
Although Jiang Ruiyan is now indifferent, he has not been good at doing things since he was a child, and he is really unwilling to do so. This is also his biggest knot. Once you encounter some setbacks, it's easy to blame them.
Xie Chengan can be said to be his only confidant. Su Mulan was also classified as a friend of the opposite sex in his heart, still the same "Brother Su".
Seeing the two of them in danger, he was unwilling to continue to live in disgrace.
Now that the three of them have decided to go to Beijing, they must prepare for their aftermath.
Today I heard about the chaos in Qingsong County, and even Li Zhixian died in the civil uprising. Xie Chengan finally made up his mind to use Zhao Jingzi to grab grain!
Although they used the same ruthless tactics as Li Zhixian, people like Zhao Jingzi were small in number and easy to control. To avoid harming innocent people as much as possible.
During this period, although Xie Chengan had not yet made up his mind, he asked Zhao Jingzi, Lao Shiba and others to contact the old department, and three hundred people had already gathered in Da'anliang Temple.
Among them, about a hundred people were Ma Hu who followed Zhao Jingzi in the uprising. There are hundreds of people who also followed Zhao Jingzi. The other hundred or so people were military households who respected Zhao Jingzi among the thousands of households in the past.
While there is no civil unrest in Anlan County yet, prepare more money and food as early as possible to ensure that the place is not in chaos. It is also capable of receiving refugees fleeing from Qinghan Prefecture or Beppu.
In the future, Daianliang Temple will be the base camp for accepting refugees!
The 200,000 stones of grain and grain from Jiangbei Province were not concentrated in the capital city. Xie Chengan needed to organize all the states and counties to transport them to Anlan, and then set off from the waterway and transport them northward to Beijing through the Grand Canal.
This journey is not dangerous, but how to transport the grain and fodder to the capital after landing is the biggest problem. We can only take one step at a time and see what happens.
Now several people went their separate ways.
Xie Cheng'an was responsible for coordinating the grain supply of various states and counties, and Jiang Ruiyan was responsible for commanding Zhao Jingzi and other three hundred "horse thieves" to ransack the homes of the rich and unkind gentry in Anlan!
Su Mulan settled everything at home.
She even invited Jiang and told them that the three of them would go to Beijing together. If something unexpected happens, the Xie and Su families will count on Jiang to take care of them.
After all, Yu's knowledge is limited, and his temperament is not as strong as that of Jiang's businessman.
This year's academy examination was postponed because the emperor was captured. Although Su Xiaobai and Li Fan have made great progress in their knowledge, they have no chance to take the scholar examination for the time being and can only continue to study at Gaoyang Academy.
Su Xi'er also made a lot of progress in studying nvhong at Xiangxiu Tower, and even accepted Jiang as her godmother. Jiang even revealed that he intended to let Su Xier take charge of the entire Xiangxiu Building business in the future.
The younger siblings all have promising futures, and at least they will have enough food and clothing in the future. Su Mulan also puts her mind at ease.
If he left just like that, he wouldn't worry about his younger siblings surviving. Although they may not be able to see the two of them get married, start a business, and have children, they are finally cultivated into talents and the task is completed.
In the days before leaving, she decided to spend more time with her siblings and enjoy the last sibling relationship.
Jiang knew that under the strict orders of the imperial court, she could not prevent Xie Chengan from coming to Beijing after taking office, but she never expected that Jiang Ruiyan and Su Mulan would also go.
Seeing that he was about to lose his two sons and his future daughter-in-law, Jiang was naturally grieved, but there was nothing he could do.
I can only promise to take care of Su Xiaobai and Su Xier.
In the blink of an eye, ten days later, the few grain reserves in various states and counties were seized under strict orders and transported to Anlan County one after another. Zhao Jingzi and other three hundred horse thieves wielded their butcher knives and looted 800,000 shi of grain and goods worth five million taels of silver.
Under the command of Jiang Ruiyan and suppressed by Zhao Jingzi, these horse thieves only stole food and money, but rarely killed anyone. Although the squires and landowners in Anlan County suffered a great disaster and no longer lived as extravagant as before, their lives were still intact.
There were many squires who were hoarding grain and preparing to make a fortune from the country's financial difficulties, but this time they were all in vain. Looking at the impoverished yard, the family members and servants who were waiting for food, these squires wanted to cry without tears.
If this was someone from the county government, they would still dare to resist. But what came were horse thieves with swords in their faces and murderers without batting an eyelid. The big men like them were smarter than rabbits at the time and couldn't think of revenge in the slightest.
Except for the Qu Yuan who was released by the county government, they were among the few who were hacked to death by horse thieves. Originally, he had a wind disease and was paralyzed, so naturally he would not resist.
However, Su Mulan learned that Guo Xuan had died in the defeat, and there was no need to keep this member of the army. If he dies, then the batch of documents and land deeds in her hands will see the light of day. Only by distributing it to ordinary people in the future will there be no future trouble.
Su Mulan gave the deeds of those shops and the house deeds to Jiang, and she would slowly take them back later.
The land deeds and land deeds were handed over to Jiang Ruiyan for processing by the county government, and would be distributed to local poor people or migrants in the future.
Although Anlan County also suffered from drought, the fields along the river were fertile fields with high-quality water sources. The yield was only slightly reduced, but the harvest was not eliminated.
It's just that these fields belong to either the squires and landlords, or to powerful people like Qu Yuanwai. Usually these people just enjoy the fine fertile fields.
When the whole county was hit by a disaster, these people not only lost everything, but also took the opportunity to purchase grains in an attempt to make a fortune. That's really not too many deaths.
Therefore, Su Mulan knew that using Zhao Jingzi to rob them of all their money and food was somewhat inhumane, but she did not feel any psychological burden at all.
