Cao Cao called me to rob a tomb

Chapter 500 Disaster Relief (4000)

"In addition, you don't know, because Jizhou was plagued by locusts this year, and many people had no food or food. As a result, the Zhen family did the opposite. Not only did they not take the opportunity to collect gold and silver treasures like other noble families, but they also saved their The tenants of the field tenants are now opening warehouses to distribute grain to the refugees in the Zhongshan Kingdom."

"It is rumored that this matter was also written by Zhen Mi."

"It was she who persuaded the mother of Zhen's family: "Seeking treasure in troubled times is not a good strategy. A man is innocent, but he is guilty of carrying a jade. This is the so-called death due to wealth. Now that many people are starving, it is better to open the grain at home. It is a kind of virtue that benefits everyone.” The mistress felt that what she said was justified, so this matter was facilitated, and because of this matter, the prestige of the Zhen family in Zhongshan Kingdom was second to none. The voice among the common people is extremely high, and everyone says that the Zhen family has produced a kind-hearted, young and sensible young woman, who will be very precious in the future."

"My lord, this is the news I've been looking for. Due to the rush of time, some rumors can't be verified yet, but I have personally witnessed the opening of the Zhen family's granary."

Speaking of this, Yang Wanli even took out a small cloth bag from his bosom, then quickly opened the small cloth bag, poured a handful of corn inside into the palm of his hand, brought it to Wu Liang and added, "This will It's the grain distributed by the Zhen family. I found a way to get it secretly. It is indeed genuine grain. It is not old rice or bad rice, and it has not been mixed with bran to make up for it. It seems that this move is not just for fame, but for Sincerely release food to save people, please make up your mind."

"..."

Wu Liang raised his hand to pick up a few grains of corn, but in his mind he was pondering the news that Yang Wanli inquired, comparing it with the historical records he knew, trying to learn more about Zhen Mi's real situation.

Seeing this, Yu Ji leaned over, took a few grains of corn from Yang Wanli's hand, and chewed them in his mouth. Unfortunately, his teeth had already fallen out, and he couldn't chew the corn. At most, he could only taste it.

"Um……"

Whispering his lips, Yu Ji nodded and said, "Young master said that he had an inexplicable act a few days ago, and had a premonition that he and the Zhen family in Zhongshan Kingdom would have unavoidable intersections. Now it seems that the Zhen family is related to those There is an essential difference between rich and unkind family members, so the intersection of the young master and the Zhen family should probably be due to a good relationship, and this old man feels relieved."

"This girl named Zhen Mi is about the same age as me. She can say such general words, which makes me a little admired. Such a thing is true. I would like to admit that she is at least half as talented as me, which is also considered to be a good one. She is a rare woman."

Zhuge Liang also nodded repeatedly at the side, and when he said this, he noticed that Bai Jingjing frowned slightly with his eyes, and then said, "Of course, if we have to make a ranking, she is only ranked third. It still has to be ranked behind sister Jingjing and my sister Dusk."

"Wu Youcai, don't teach Zhuge Liang such crooked ways in the future. He is at least half as shameless as you."

Bai Jingjing immediately failed, but held back a smile and rolled her eyes, angrily reprimanded Wu Liang.

"It can't be my fault, I don't usually teach him these things, is this completely self-taught?"

Wu Liang came back to his senses, defended himself helplessly, and gave Zhuge Liang a glare by the way.

"That's right, that's right, I'm self-taught, the talented brother is just teaching by precept and deed, he didn't really teach me."

Zhuge Liang said quickly.

"Hey! Your skin is itchy, isn't it?"

Wu Liang immediately dunked him on the head.

"Hahaha……"

The crowd burst into laughter.

After laughing, Prince Chamu, a real social bully, took the conversation over, puffed out his chest and said solemnly: "I just don't know what this girl named Zhen Mi looks like. She is so kind-hearted and young. If the young girl of Youtongli has a beautiful appearance, she is already qualified to become the princess of Shanshan. Although I haven't learned the skill of the room, but I have no resistance to such a girl , so if she has any thoughts about me, it's not that I can't give her a chance to return to Shanshan Kingdom with me and become queen."

In fact, after returning to the Central Plains with Wu Liang, Prince Chamu was unaccompanied, and after all he had accepted his life a little. During this period of time, he was much more honest than when he was in Shanshan.

However, after going through the incident with the Bai family with Wu Liang and others, this guy no longer regards himself as an outsider, and his words are somewhat revealing.

"..."

When everyone heard the words, they were speechless for a long time.

"Brother Chamu, I heard that you know a lot about our Han culture, but our Han culture is extensive and profound, so why don't I rely on you, do you know how to write the word '贱' and how many ways there are?"

Zhuge Liang asked disdainfully.

"I don't know which sao word Brother Zhuge said?"

Prince Chamu didn't understand the meaning, and asked with some doubts.

"Ashamed, if you don't reply, I can teach you."

Zhuge Liang said with a half-smile.

"I still know this word, it should be..."

Prince Chamu nodded quite complacently, and was about to write it out for Zhuge Liang to read, but he finally came to his senses, and immediately said with a straight face, "Okay, brother Zhuge, you are deliberately playing tricks on me, right! "

"Ha ha ha ha……"

There was another roar of laughter.

Even Prince Chamu couldn't stand it this time, his face was slightly flushed, but he still pouted his neck and said: "I'm not wrong, although Shanshan is a small country in the Western Regions, the queen's position is not comparable to that of a big man, but After all, in Shanshan Kingdom, one person is under one person and above one thousand people, no girl from any family has ever humiliated her when she became a queen!"

"That's all right, all right, I can figure out that you have nothing to do with this Zhen Mi, you should put this thought away."

Wu Liang finally came out to smooth things over, and said with a smile, "The current plan is to find out more about the situation of the Zhen family. My psychic appearance shows that the intersection between me and the Zhen family is destined, but it is a pity. What exactly will happen is unknown. In addition, we are now in the hinterland of Yuan Shao's territory, and the Zhen family is a famous family in Zhongshan. It is inevitable that we will have some contacts with Yuan Shao, so even if we want to contact the people of the Zhen family, You must also master the scale and skills, and you must not easily reveal your identity, which requires a suitable opportunity."

"Yang Wanli, I will still teach you how to handle this matter, and continue to inquire into the situation of the Zhen family... The focus of the next investigation will be on Zhen Mi's second brother, who is the current head of the Zhen family, 'Zhen Yan', and pay special attention to him. Is there any hidden illness, and at the same time, we should also pay special attention to the cause of death of his father 'Zhen Yi' and eldest son 'Zhen Yu', I always feel that the death of these two people is not as simple as illness, so try to investigate in detail."

When her father "Zhen Yi" died, Zhen Mi cried more than anyone else.

When the elder brother "Zhen Yu" died, Zhen Mi was not so sad and forgot it very quickly.

Naturally, it will make Wu Liang doubtful. Human nature will not change easily. If Zhen Mi is a person who values ​​her family, then she should not have such a completely different behavior when her father and elder brother died.

But there is another reason for focusing on investigating the second elder brother "Zhen Yan" who is currently leading the family.

Because according to the official history, "Zhen Yan" will also die when Zhen Mi is 14 years old. This is an upcoming event, and it is not far from now.

His father "Zhen Yi" died early.

The eldest brother "Zhen Yu" died early.

The second brother "Zhen Yan" is about to die prematurely.

And the third brother "Zhen Yao" is still unknown, because there are only five words about him in the historical records: "Ci Yao, cite Xiaolian", and there is no record of his deeds and life in the rest. It is even more impossible to explain the date and cause of his final death. Wu Liang is also a clever woman who cannot cook without rice.

But this does not prevent Wu Liang from making some inferences based on known information.

The Zhen family has three sons and five daughters, their father died early, the eldest brother died early, and the second brother is about to die early...

He had to suspect that the third child might also have a rare and happy death.

It didn't feel like a natural phenomenon, bad luck happened to the men of Zhen's family one by one, and they happened in order, it looked a bit like some kind of unexplainable curse.

Even if things were not as Wu Liang deduced, this matter could be used as an excuse for Wu Liang to approach the Zhen family.

"promise!"

Yang Wanli responded, and immediately went out to do so.

……

Wu Liang was not in a hurry, and led the Huan army to temporarily stay in Zhongshan City, waiting patiently for opportunities and opportunities.

It has to be admitted that Zhongshan Kingdom is the rear of Yuan Shao's territory, and there are "kind-hearted" family members like the Zhen family sitting in it, so the security situation is naturally better than most of the places Wu Liang has been to before.

Even if there is a plague of locusts this year, the lives of the people should be relatively stable, and starvation on the roadside is rare.

Wu Liang and others lived in Zhongshan City for a week. Except for those who went out to inquire, the rest of the people ate and slept. The customs and customs make life more enjoyable and comfortable than in Chenliu, and even a little bit reluctant to leave.

Now the matter between Wu Liang and Bai Jingjing has been acquiesced by the Bai family, and they can act as husband and wife at any time.

However, although the two lived in the same room recently, they still did not easily break through that relationship.

It wasn't Wu Liang's reluctance, nor was it Bai Jingjing's resistance.

But considering the current situation, it is really not suitable for messing around.

There are already many risks when going out, and I am afraid that we will have to go deep into dangerous situations in the future, and there are no proper security measures in this era. If Wu Liang hits the target with every shot, his next actions will be greatly affected, especially the dialogue. Jingjing is very bad.

Although Wu Liang is not an expert in parenting, he also knows some basic knowledge about childbirth.

If a woman is pregnant, the first few months are often the most critical period. There must be a stable and comfortable environment to ensure the healthy development of the fetus. Otherwise, the fetus will have problems, and the mother's body will also be greatly irreversible. Therefore, this matter cannot be done casually.

not to mention.

Wu Liang felt that it was necessary to give Bai Jingjing some sense of ritual before this matter, and he couldn't be as ignorant as before, teaching his woman to be wronged in this matter.

Of course, this does not prevent him from being a central air-conditioning scumbag at heart.

Otherwise, why did he go to Zhongshan country this time?
Isn't it just eating from the bowl and looking at the pot?
However, in this era, polygamy is the mainstream and recognized marriage system. A scumbag like Wu Liang is eager to try it, and the aborigines in this era are not so difficult to accept.

This is also a kind of doing as the Romans do...

During this period, Yang Wanli went out in disguise every day to inquire, but the Zhen family's awareness of prevention in Zhongshan was obviously not as high as that of Chen Liu's Zhu family. In addition, because the Zhen family opened a warehouse to release food, many refugees from outside entered the city every day. , naturally did not cause any unexpected troubles.

It's a pity that there was no trouble, and Yang Wanli didn't inquire about any useful news.

Especially what Wu Liang explained to Yang Wanli, maybe Zhen Yi and Zhen Yu have died for a long time, and maybe the Zhen family has done a good job of keeping this matter secret, and the cause of death after inquiring is all due to illness , As for what the disease is, no outsider can say clearly.

As for the second brother "Zhen Yan" who is about to die early in history.

It is also only known that he is still alive and well, and outsiders think that he is in good health, and there is no clue.

at the same time.

Wu Liang finally got a chance to meet Zhen Mi with his own eyes.

Yang Wanli brought back news in advance that Zhen Mi would personally distribute food to the victims on behalf of the Zhen family the next morning, and his second brother "Zhen Yan" as the head of the family would also accompany him.

"Tomorrow, Prince Chamu will disguise himself with me and go to Zhen's house to collect food."

Wu Liang immediately made a decision, "The rest of the backbone can also go, but just take a look outside, don't get close together, lest they form gangs and attract the attention of Zhen's family."

I also know that it is Zhen Mi and Zhen Yan who distribute the food together.

Then the Zhen family will definitely arrange a lot of guards to maintain order, and naturally they will inevitably ask a few questions when they meet someone they think is suspicious. Otherwise, you will be limited in what you want to do later.

So came the second day.

After Wu Liang got up, he wiped a handful of ashes on Prince Chamu's face, and took him a rag to cover his curly hair, so as to teach his Western Region style face not to be so eye-catching.

He himself is the same, after all, his half-length hair is not very fashionable in this era.

When they arrived at the Zhen Mansion, the refugees who came to receive Zhen’s food had already lined up under the instructions of the Zhen Mansion’s guards. The line had been lined up in the alley opposite the mansion. It was roughly estimated that there were at least two to three hundred people in front of them. .

It's just that Wu Liang and others came relatively early, and there will definitely be more people coming later.
