Before confiscating the house and going into exile, he emptied the enemy's warehouses and fled.

The person who contacted Governor He had always been Xi Twelve, but since the prince left, Si Twelve had gone somewhere unknown, so Governor He came to see Xie Xiangxiang in person.

When Governor He saw Xie Xiangxiang for the first time, his Adam's apple rolled up and down twice. He also had several wives and concubines, none of whom could compare to Xie Xiangxiang's beauty and dignity.

But he was a high-ranking military governor and one of King Xi's close friends, so he wouldn't be so confused as to flirt with her.

He nodded lightly and said, "Madam, how many counties do you plan to support people in?"

Seeing the blasphemy in his eyes, Xie Xiangxiang was a little disgusted. He put on the airs of "Princess Xi" and said condescendingly: "How much can the warlord get?"

"Madam, do you know how many acres of farmland there are in a county?"

"Does Governor He know?"

Governor He couldn't figure out Xie Xiangxiang's depth and did not dare to be careless. He said: "A county has at least 10 acres of cultivated land, and wheat alone accounts for more than 3 acres. This requires about 8000 stone wheat seeds. If other crop seeds are counted, It costs more than 8000 shi per season.”

"Oh, then 8 shi of wheat seeds and 8 shi of other crop seeds." Xie Xiangxiang said, "Let's bring all the wheat seeds from 10 counties to Jingshan County."

Governor He looked at Xie Xiangxiang calmly for a while and couldn't help but chuckle.

It turned out to be a straw bag that didn’t do anything for farming!
Xie Xiangxiang saw the contempt in his eyes, and the increasingly grasping look, his face sank, and he said: "Rescuing people is like putting out fires, it's better for the governor to be faster."

Governor He said scornfully: "Madam, do you know that 16 stones of seeds will require three years of military resources from the Northwest Frontier Army?"

If military rations and military expenditures are taken out, what will the soldiers and horses eat? What are you using to guard the border?
Xie Xiangxiang said coldly: "This should be something the governor considers. Since the governor has promised the prince, he must keep his promise."

***
After the prince left, Chu Xiwang heard that Xie Yanyan did not go back immediately, so he came to visit Xie Yanyan.

"I originally invited you to go to Sihai Pavilion to have fun, but there is something urgent that I want to tell you."

Chu Xiwang said that Xie Xiangxiang, through Governor He and the foreigners, was purchasing seeds to send to several counties and cities in the west to win people's hearts.

Xie Yanyan was surprised: She hasn't gone back yet?

"She wants to win over the people. But Governor He used all his military supplies to get the seeds."

"Does Lord Jade know?"

"I don't know! If he knew, he would definitely impeach Governor He." Chu Xiwang said, "Misappropriating military funds and rations is a capital crime. Everyone in the family will be executed."

When Xirong or Beidi invaded, Governor He could not stop them. In the end, it was the people of Qin who were enslaved.

"Brother Chu, your Sihai Pavilion is here. If you go to the government to provide information, Lord Yu can take care of your business."

"Sihai Pavilion does not deal with the government."

[I just want you to get another credit and be freed from guilt as soon as possible]

It turned out that I wanted to give her a credit.

After Chu Xiwang left, Xie Yanyan held his chin in one hand and turned the pages of the book with the other. For a long, long time, he did not turn a page of the book.

"Scan Xie Xiangxiang."

Xie Xiangxiang also lived in Jingchuan County, which was not too far away from her. In an instant, she saw Xie Xiangxiang in another courtyard.

Xi Si: "Madam, the seeds Governor He exchanged from Beidi will be delivered to Jingshan County tomorrow."

Xie Xiangxiang: "Wang Zhen has some connections with Zhou Qi, the third elder of Jingshan County. It would be best to leave this matter to Zhou Qi. With his prestige, the 10 border counties will be grateful to the prince."

Xie Yanyan put down the book in his hand.

I saw Xie Anfeng sitting in the yard, carving on a piece of wood. The prototype of the wood carving looks like a girl, fat and plump, with two rough knobs on her head.

"I want to go to Jingshan County," she said. "Xie Xiangxiang is going there to provide disaster relief and distribute grain crops. I want to see it."

Xie Anfeng stopped his hand and asked, "What will happen if you go? We don't have any seeds either."

"Just take a look."

"Yan'er, Xie Xiangxiang went to provide disaster relief to gain merit for King Xi and win people's hearts. The court doesn't know that you went to provide relief, so what's the benefit of doing this to you?"

"I'll just take a look." "There are too many hungry people in the disaster area and it's not safe."

"I heard that there is a porcelain kiln over there, and the porcelain they produce is very famous. I'll go take a look and buy a few pieces to give as gifts later."

Xie Anfeng knew that she was determined to go.

Then go for it!

He put the wood in his hand into his bag and prepared to pack the carriage and take Xie Yanyan to Jingshan County.

Just when he saw Zhou Shaoyu coming back from outside on horseback, Xie Anfeng asked: "Prince Zhou, do you have the seeds to help the victims?"

This question was strange. Zhou Shaoyu blinked and said: "I got the news that King Xi wanted to win over the people and sent seeds and grain to 10 counties and villages in the northwest. All the seeds and grains he sent to the counties and villages in the northwest were obtained from Beidi by misappropriating military rations and military expenditures. This is not about drinking poison to quench thirst. ?"

This answer was specious, but Xie Anfeng's face darkened.

He knew that Zhou Shaoyu must have instigated Xie Yanyan to go to the disaster area.

Zhou Shaoyu looked at Xie Anfeng striding away with an unkind expression and blinked. Why did he offend General Xie?

[Is she going to provide disaster relief? Are you afraid that if General Xie refuses, he will blame me? 】

[Well, come on, I do! 】

The next day, Xie Yanyan and Zhou Shaoyu went to Jingshan County.

Just the two of them. She left a note for Xie Anfeng, changed into men's clothes, and ran away with Zhou Shaoyu.

They are enough to stop Hu Xie Xiangxiang.

The further west we go, the worse the situation becomes. Not only does the ground yield no grains, but also all the fresh dates that are abundant here.

A world lacking plants is devastated.

"Good Samaritan, please give me something to eat! The child is dying..." A woman was holding two black children, looking at the fast horse from a distance, and knelt down on the roadside to beg.

What answered her was the sound of horses' hooves clattering away, and the flying dust.

The woman lowered her eyes and looked at the two four or five-year-old children in despair.

Xie Yanyan: "Xiaomei, exchange it for 10 steamed buns, 2 in a pack."

[10 steamed buns, redeemed successfully]

"Mother, mother, bun, bun!"

Where the smoke and dust fell, there were five oily paper packets placed at the woman's feet. The children scrambled to get out of the woman's arms, grabbed the paper packets and started to gnaw them before they had time to open them.

The woman opened the paper bag and saw two snow-white steamed buns inside. Really, she had never seen such white steamed buns.

5 packs, 10 steamed buns in total.

"benefactor……"

The words of gratitude floated away in the wind, and Zhou Shaoyu and Xie Yanyan could no longer hear them.

When they arrived at Jingshan County, they saw a huge crowd of people. Horse-drawn carriages, donkey carts, and army grain trucks were constantly coming towards the county town.

A large group of drummers beat gongs and suonas at the city gate.

"Prince Xi has sent us food."

"I also sent seeds."

"King Xi is indeed a wise king..."

In the crowd, there was an old man in his fifties with a fluttering beard, followed by a group of old men who looked very prestigious. In front of them, stood a woman wearing a veil, and several guards were standing nearby majestically, holding hands. Press it on the Yanling knife at your waist.

A fast horse came quickly on the dirt road in the distance, riding on the billowing smoke and dust.
