Three Kingdoms: Madam, I am a decent person

Chapter 29: It was actually the "Unparalleled General" Pan Feng

The second lady Zhen Mi felt a little embarrassed when she heard what Zhang Sui said.

It turns out he recognized it!
Fortunately, I had black makeup on my face, so the changes in my complexion were not noticeable.

Zhen Mi looked down at the items in her arms again, feeling a little confused.

Are these bows and arrows?

It’s not like she hasn’t played with a bow and arrow before.

Although she is a woman.

However, I also learned the Six Arts.

But why is this bow and arrow different from the ones I’ve used before?
Bizarre.

If she hadn't seen Zhang Sui demonstrate it just now, she really wouldn't have thought of it!
Zhang Sui ignored the doubts of the second lady Zhen Mi and called on two soldiers and Zhen Mi to follow.

This time, Zhang Sui set up two granaries and grain relief points in Wuji County.

One is at the south gate of the city, led by Captain Zhen Hao and his troops.

The other one was at the east gate of the city, led by deputy captain Zhao Xu.

There is a lot of traffic in these two places.

It is easy to publicize the Zhen family’s opening of warehouses to provide relief grain.

And now, Zhang Sui wants to go to the south of the city to take a look.

The closer you get to the south of the city, the more people of all kinds you can see on the streets.

Moreover, it's like two worlds that can't be integrated.

Some of them were potbellied, dressed luxuriously, and holding bird cages with various birds in them, looking very contented.

Some were ragged, half-naked, and skinny.

These people are not just men, but women as well.

Zhang Sui looked at this scene and his expression dimmed.

Before he traveled through time, he often saw keyboard warriors online who thought themselves knowledgeable and boastful, saying things like how women in ancient times were so reserved, needed to observe women's virtues, and needed a sedan chair carried by eight people to get married.

What they don’t know is that only women from wealthy families can meet these conditions.

The vast majority of women are ordinary people.

They can't even meet the basic needs of food, clothing, shelter and transportation, so why should they be so particular?

Zhang Sui looked at the women walking around and shook his head.

For the first time, he understood why the ancients called for "helping the world when you are successful."

As he got closer to the south gate of the city, Zhang Sui saw more and more refugees.

These refugees were lying under the eaves and on the ground.

Some women were in disarray, pressed down by men, with dull eyes.

Some women and children were already motionless, emitting a foul odor.

Passers-by and yamen runners passed by from time to time, but no one even looked at them.

Zhang Sui sighed and said, "What do these yamen runners do for a living? Even if we don't consider burying these refugees, we still have to consider the plague, right?"

Zhen Mi followed behind him and said, "The yamen runners all obey the county magistrate."

"The county magistrate here was bought with money during the reign of Emperor Ling."

"Because he could collect money and pay taxes to the Jizhou government, his official position has never been removed."

"How can he have the time to care about these things?"

"He also wants to eat and drink with the various noble families in our county in order to get more money!"

"The day before yesterday, he went to my mother and asked her to give him 500 rolls of silk. Then he could get in touch with the higher-ups and recommend my second brother as an honorable and honest official."

"Only if he becomes a filial and honest official will my second brother have the opportunity to enter the government."

"As for the dead people, a plague would be what he would have liked most."

"Each aristocratic family must protect itself."

"By then, he will be able to receive a lot of money from various noble families."

"At the beginning of last year, there was actually a plague in Wuji County, and hundreds of people died."

"Our family donated 100 rolls of silk and invited medical workers."

"The medical workers used a very simple method to deal with the plague. They threw all the bodies and people infected with the plague into the lime pool."

"How much do these cost?"

“All the donated money was swallowed up by the county magistrate.”

Zhang Sui: "What do you want a county magistrate like this to do? Can't you hire a doctor yourself?"

Zhen Mi sighed and said, "Even if this county magistrate is driven out of office, the next county magistrate will be the same."

“It’s not like we haven’t done that before.”

"As for us, if we dare to do this, the Jizhou government will make things difficult for us."

"Unless there is someone from the Jizhou government, how can an ordinary noble family dare to resist?"

At this point, Zhen Mi's pretty face dimmed as she said, "This is the situation in our Zhen family." "When my father was alive, he was the magistrate of Shangcai. Whenever the magistrate came to my house, he would go through the side door."

"After my father passed away, the county magistrate always came through the front gate when he came to my house, and he asked for things in a legitimate way, using the excuse that the Jizhou government needed them."

"Now Jizhou and Youzhou are at war every year. Where do you think the food and grass come from?"

"All these refugees who were useful were taken away to be exiled. Those who were useless could only sit and wait for death. Who would care?"

"We, the aristocratic families, have become the targets of extortion by the Jizhou government."

"If my second brother can stand up, my Zhen family will just have to endure it."

"But my second brother is like this. I don't see any hope at all."

“I am this identity again.”

"Now, my hope lies only in my third brother."

"I hope I can hold on until my third brother becomes successful and then get married."

Zhang Sui glanced at the second lady Zhen Mi.

It is indeed not easy.

In this chaotic world, everyone is a leek.

The group rushed to the south gate of the city.

A long line had formed at the south gate of the city.

Captain Zhen Hao commanded dozens of troops, constantly reorganizing the refugees to prevent accidents.

There were also a few other people who were cooking porridge in a big pot.

Zhang Sui walked over and called the captain Zhen Hao over and said, "Captain, why is there no sound? Shout! Let everyone shout, let people know that this is our Zhen family doing good deeds. Now that the gates of Yanmen County are open, the Hu people have joined forces with our Han army, and everyone is in danger. All the noble families are hoarding food, and the people are getting hungrier and hungrier. Sooner or later, something will happen. We must let these people know that our Zhen family is different from other noble families."

"It's okay for them to attack other aristocratic families, but they can't attack our Zhen family."

"Because our Zhen family supports them."

Captain Zhen Hao scratched his head and said with a flattering smile: "I don't know how to shout."

The second lady Zhen Mi is about to recommend herself.

Zhang Sui shook his head and said, "Find someone to fetch the bronze gong."

"Also, find two loud voices and repeat after me!"

Captain Zhen Hao quickly took action.

After a while, two big men came over.

Zhang Sui looked at them and said, "I will only shout five times. If you still can't learn it after five times, don't expect me to tell you stories in the future."

The two big men's faces suddenly changed, and they hurriedly smiled and said, "You say."

Zhang Sui then glanced at everyone and shouted at the top of his voice: "Fellow villagers, we are the Zhen family!"

Zhang Sui stopped and looked at the two big men.

The two big men started roaring.

Zhang Sui waited until they finished shouting before continuing, "There is a severe drought in the world right now. Our Madam, Master, and Miss know that everyone is having a hard time. Therefore, we have used up all our family wealth to open the granary to provide food. I hope everyone will abide by the rules and not fight over it. We in the Zhen family will do our best to ensure that everyone has food to eat. We are all in the same boat, and only when everyone is well, is it truly well."

The second lady Zhen Mi looked at Zhang Suizhang's words with a strange expression.

This lecher is indeed a pervert, but he does have some skills.

Someone brought a gong.

Zhang Sui took the gong and started beating it while yelling at the crowd.

After being taught several times, the two big men learned it.

Zhang Sui looked at the two big men beating the gong and roaring, and was about to take two of his men and the second young lady to the east gate of the city to take a look.

Suddenly, dozens of big men on the street came towards this side with ferocious looks, and even dispersed the group of refugees.

"Spread out, spread out!"

"Get the hell out of here!"

"The captain is here, get out of here if you don't want to die!"

Zhang Sui looked at the person who came and asked the second young lady Zhen Mi beside him: "What's going on? How does the Zhen family usually deal with it?"

The second lady Zhen Mi glanced at Zhang Sui and said, "Let's talk about reason first, and if that doesn't work, just shoot him. This man is called Pan Feng, and he was a general of Han Fu, the former governor of Jizhou. He has no intelligence and his martial arts are average. After Han Fu, the former governor of Jizhou, died, he was demoted here."

Zhang Sui hissed and looked at the arrogant man surrounded by dozens of big men.

A county commander, if he fails, you’ll just shoot him?

It seems that I still underestimated the Zhen family!

And, Pan Feng?
Han Fu's subordinates?

Isn’t this the unrivaled general in Romance of the Three Kingdoms?

Unexpectedly, in reality, it was just a little Karami.

No wonder there is no record of this person in history books.

Zhang Sui looked at the second young lady Zhen Mi and asked suspiciously, "Are you sure you can shoot her?"
