The powerful minister's palm is reborn
Chapter 61
Chapter 61
Bai Qingyin looked back and saw soldiers carrying food and grass, and not far away, a middle-aged man in official uniform approached.
Before the man reached Mr. Wu's side, he cupped his hands and saluted, and said in a friendly way: "Master Wu, you are three days earlier than expected by the lower official, and you must have traveled day and night."
"It's been a tiring journey, and the journey has been exhausting. The officials have prepared drinks, my lord..." Ruan Weifeng immediately stepped forward and invited him.
"My lord, please worry about it." Wu Tongzhou immediately refused: "The food and grass escort is the most important thing. I will just use some meals as I like."
Along the way, they only had two meals at the post station, morning and evening, and their lunch meals were also dry food and water prepared by the post station.
In order to transport the grain and grass safely, they never eat any food on the road.
"Okay." Ruan Weifeng paused for a while, and then said: "I ordered someone to bring the food over."
While speaking, Ruan Weifeng looked at Bai Qingyin beside Wu Tongzhou, and asked, "Who is this little girl?"
Tang Yisheng stepped forward and explained: "She is the daughter of my good friend. She has been very intelligent since she was a child. She is good at accounting and medical skills. When my friend learned that I was going to Tongzhou for disaster relief, she asked her to go with me. It is also good to take the opportunity to let her practice for a while. fan."
It is inconvenient to tell outsiders about Miss Bai's identity and origin.
Bai Qingyin looked at Tang Yisheng with a hint of gratitude in her eyes.
She did not expect that Tang Yisheng would fabricate an identity for her in order to prevent her from being suspected.
For an honest person, fabricating a lie is a big deal for him.
"My daughter pays homage to Master Ruan." Bai Qingyin saluted according to the rules.
Old Liu and Mrs. Yan looked at Bai Qingyin saluting Ruan Weifeng, with a hint of confusion and distress in their eyes.
The little princess is really flexible, she has never bowed to His Majesty several times, but today she bowed to a rank five eunuch?
"No, no, you're welcome, girl." Ruan Weifeng replied politely, then turned to Wu Tongzhou and said, "You wait here, and I'll order someone to bring the food to you."
After Ruan Weifeng left, Bai Qingyin looked at Wu Tongzhou and Tang Yisheng, and whispered, "My lords, there is something that my daughter should say or not?"
"But it doesn't matter." Wu Tongzhou looked back at Bai Qingyin and said with a smile.
Bai Qingyin passed the two of them, looked at Ruan Weifeng's figure with clear eyes, and whispered: "Is this Lord Ruan trustworthy?"
His eyes were unpredictable, revealing a shrewd and evil spirit.
She has seen countless generals and officials, and has come into contact with many officials. This is the first time she has seen such evil officials.
Just one glance gave her a very uncomfortable feeling.
"Girl, why did you say that?" Tang Yisheng walked up to Bai Qingyin's side.
Bai Qingyin replied in a low voice: "I don't know, I just think he is too considerate."
If it is really a classmate confidant, why would it propose to have a meal when the grain and grass are transported and handed over?
How much is it deliberate to act like this?
Bai Qingyin's eyes flickered as she looked at the soldiers who were carrying food and grass.
The shi of grain and grass had to be escorted by dozens of boats. If someone tampered with it, no one would be able to find out for a while.
If Mr. Wu and the others used the Guandu water transport in the previous life, then the grain and grass were most likely lost during the water transport.
There are dozens of ships here, how can we keep an eye on them?
"Girl is overwhelmed. This is the Guandu Water Transport. Unless they can communicate with each other, unite, cooperate with each other, and get along with each other, they won't be able to move this batch of food and grass." Wu Tongzhou looked back at the worried little girl and comforted him.
Bai Qingyin's heart sank: I'm afraid they really cooperate with each other and get along with each other.
"Come here, the food is here." When Bai Qingyin was thinking about what to do next, Ruan Weifeng walked towards them with someone.
Tang Yi was afraid that the little girl would be cautious, so he brought the food box to Bai Qingyin: "Miss Bai, I have been working hard for the past few days. There is nothing to worry about now that I have been transported by water. After lunch, let's take a good rest!"
After several days of traveling, the little girl lost a lot of weight.
Bai Qingyin took the food box and thanked, "Thank you sir."
Bai Qingyin walked towards Mrs. Yan carrying the food box.
At night, Bai Qingyin looked at the brightly lit ferry in the distance. Madam Yan walked up to her with a cloak, tied the cloak around her body, caressed her body and wanted to send her back to rest: "It's cold at night, don't be cold. Take care of yourself. Go back and rest!"
"Auntie, we can't keep food and grass!" Bai Qingyin whispered while holding Madam Yan's hand.
Mrs. Yan paused her hands, then tried her best to hide the shock in her eyes, and asked in a low voice, "How did the girl know?"
Madam Yan firmly believed in Bai Qingyin's words.Although I believe it, I still have doubts.
Now the grain and grass are being shipped, and it is almost time to arrive in Tongzhou. Why did the girl decide that the grain and grass could not be kept.
Bai Qingyin pointed to the lights in the distance: "Once it is transported by water, it is equivalent to handing over food and grass to others."
"Just now I found an opportunity to ask Mr. Tang, and I learned that there are four water transportation stations to go to Tongzhou from here."
As she said that, she looked back at Mrs. Yan, and smiled bitterly: "They don't need to do anything. Just prepare the same boat not far from the ship's shore. Then take the night to replace the lagging boat, and you can easily replace the old boat." The grain and grass were transported away without a sound."
"Then let's go and tell Master Wu and them." Mrs. Yan took the little girl's hand and went to Wu Tongzhou.
"It's useless." Bai Qingyin held Madam Yan's hand to stop her from moving.
Madam Yan looked back at Bai Qingyin, puzzled and eager: "Why?"
Now that you know what they are going to do, why don't you tell them to stop moving grain and grass?
"These people are determined to buy food and grass. They must have already deployed it early. Master Wu and the food have already reached their boundaries. How could they easily let Master Wu and the food and grass leave? If they insist on leaving, these officers and soldiers will die .”
"How dare they attack the imperial court officials so frantically?" Mrs. Yan looked at Bai Qingyin in disbelief.
Bai Qingyin replied softly: "The water area here is vast, and it is the best place to destroy corpses and traces. Just find an excuse to say that the food and grass were robbed by water bandits, and you can deceive people."
Afterwards, randomly find some water bandits to act as scapegoats, which can not only hide people's eyes and ears, but also make a contribution to suppressing bandits.
It's a no-brainer!
"If Master Wu could have told us earlier that we hadn't stepped into Tengning, we would have been able to keep the food and grass." Madam Yan was sitting on the chair, feeling weak all over.
The fire in the distance was reflected in Bai Qing's eyes like ink, and she whispered: "Master Wu is an official of the imperial court. He wants to send the grain and grass to Tongzhou with all his heart. Suddenly, a letter comes saying that the water transport can save time. Wu My lord will definitely choose water transport without hesitation."
"Furthermore, he is an official of the imperial court, how can he tell the course of action to those of us who are insignificant."
I can't blame Mr. Wu in his previous life for not defending himself. It turned out that he was atoning for his dereliction of duty.
Calculated in kind, during the Zhenguan period of the Tang Dynasty, 1 tael of silver was 1000 copper coins, which could buy 200 catties of rice.One tael of silver in the Zhenguan period is equivalent to 6345.6 yuan now.
10 Dou of rice is one stone, and one stone in Tang Dynasty was 79.32 kilograms.
Another: After passing the last round of pk, it will be on the shelves on the th, and it will be updated on the same day.
