Chapter 123 Anger

"Yes!" Hong Lianshuo curled up his lips and looked at his son with a smile, "Let's go, let's sacrifice to the five internal organs temple first!" He smiled and said, "It's done."

With Hong Lianshuo's skills, they naturally returned home with a full load of small wild animals such as pheasants, hares, and wild ducks.

There are more wolves and less meat, so having broth is already good. If you can have some minced meat, it’s really better than the Chinese New Year.

After they had eaten and drank enough, Hong Lianshuo arranged for Han Youxin and others to clean the two barracks and repair the ones that needed repairing. For example, the doors and windows were broken, and carpenters were there to measure the sizes of the door curtains to prevent mosquitoes and flies. Those with skills would weave them together.

And she gathered her troops, took protective measures, and went into the inner city to find out how much wealth she could get.

Hong Lianshuo stood in front of these 600 people and said, "The main purpose of our entering the inner city is to find food, clothing, and fabrics!" He raised his index finger and said, "I only want to say one thing, everything seized must be returned to the public and must not be hidden for personal use!"

"Yes!" Chen Zhongyuan and others responded in unison.

The troops were divided into three groups. Lin Nanzheng and Han Qinhu each took 200 men and pulled them onto carts and ran towards the inner city.

Hong Lianshuo went to the palace city. As she thought, the emperor's private treasury had been wiped out, including food and cloth, which were also hard currencies.

Because the cloth was transported in such a hurry, a lot of cloth was scattered on the ground and was messed up by people trampling on it. It was a good thing for them who were tight on daily necessities. They picked it up and went back to starch it so that it would not hinder their use.

Then we fetched water and cleaned and scrubbed the library and the imperial study room.

"We can go in." Hong Lianshuo directed and spread out the moldy bamboo slips and scrolls written on silk in the palace to cool down.

"Mrs. Hong, why don't you put it in the sun? It will be dry in a moment." Sixi said carelessly.

"It has faded due to exposure to the sun and the words cannot be read clearly. The loss is too great." Hong Lianshuo lowered his head and looked at the silk silk spread on the ground. He was a little confused that the weight of this library paper was not too much.

There are some, they look a bit rough, and they are not bound. They are piled in piles, they feel damp to the touch, and they are also very fragile.

"What is this?" Sixi blinked and looked at the thing in her hand curiously and said, "I've never seen it before. It doesn't look like cloth."

"This is paper! As a writing tool, it is easier to write than bamboo slips, lightweight, and easy to carry." Hong Lianshuo spread the papers one by one in the hall.

"There are so many words, I wonder when I can finish them?" Sixi said, looking at the 'books' covering the hall.

"That's not much." Hong Lianshuo chuckled after hearing this.

Mo Sanya, who was squatting on the ground playing with bamboo slips, raised his head and looked at Hong Lianshuo and said, "What do you mean by too much?"

"The two floors of the library must at least be full." Hong Lianshuo looked around the library and said.

"Ah!" Mo Sanya opened her mouth so wide that she could fit an egg in it.

"Why are you so surprised? You will only regret it when the book is used!" Hong Lianshuo looked at them amusedly and said.

"Dear me, when will I be able to finish reading this?" Mo Sanya took a deep breath and said.

"Live and learn until you are old, and there will always be a time when you finish reading." Hong Lianshuo looked at them with bright eyes and said, "The most important thing is not to just study, but to apply what you have learned."

Mo Sanya scratched his still prickly head and said, "Do you want to learn how to use it?"

"Yes, yes!" Hong Lianshuo nodded hurriedly, "You can't just apply it mechanically, like trying to find a sword while carving a boat."

"Carving a boat to ask for a sword?" Si Xi asked curiously after hearing this, "What is that?"

"A story from Lu's Spring and Autumn Annals..." Hong Lianshuo told this fable with great emotion and vividness.

"Oh my God, how could there be such a stubborn person?" Sixi smiled and shook his head.

"So learn and use it, but don't become him." Hong Lianshuo looked at them with gentle and jade-like eyes and said.

"I remember." Sixi and the others responded in unison.

"Ms. Hong, do you want this book to hang out like this forever?" Mo Sanya asked with concern.

"It needs to dry for two or three days." Hong Lianshuo ordered them to be spread out. "Close the doors and windows and let's go and see if they have harvested anything."

All the 'books' were spread on the wooden floor, the doors and windows were closed, and they left the hall.

"It won't rain today!" Sixi said, looking at the flaming clouds in the sky.

"If you don't go out for the morning glow, the sunset will travel thousands of miles." Mo Sanya said, her whole body dyed red.

"Don't let it rain, our shack can't bear it," Sixi said quickly after hearing this.

"We will move in two days." Hong Lianshuo said with a smile on his face.

"Isn't this city currently uninhabitable? How to move?" Mo Sanya looked at her doubtfully and asked.

"Move to the barracks outside the city. Wherever the buildings are crowded, we can't fit in." Hong Lianshuo looked at them with bright black eyes and smiled, "Let's slowly pack up the buildings in the city before winter comes."

move in."

"That's great!" Si Xi said with a smile.

Hong Lianshuo led his people out of the palace city and saw Han Qinhu galloping towards him on horseback.

"Xu Xu..." Han Qinhu pulled the reins, the horse stopped, jumped off the horse, pulled the reins and walked over, cupping his hands and saying, "Ms. Hong, we found a lot of food in the official warehouse."

"The official warehouse?" Hong Lianshuo looked at him in surprise and confusion and said, "It was not emptied by Hu Bing."

"The ones on the ground have been evacuated, and what is found now is the ones underground." Han Qinhu said with a frown.

"General Han, it's a good thing to find food!" Mo Sanya bowed his hands and said, "But why are you unhappy?"

"Most of the food is moldy and cannot be eaten," Han Qinhu said angrily with a dark face.

"Let's take a look." Hong Lianshuo frowned slightly and looked at them.

The group of people followed Han Qinhu to the official warehouse. The musty smell hit their noses before they even entered.

When Hong Lianshuo stepped into the official warehouse, the musty smell became even stronger, and he saw that the grain had been transported up from the ground.

Hong Lianshuo looked at the mountains of grain with a dark face and said angrily, "Those who waste grain should be struck by lightning."

"It really can't be eaten." Sixi looked at Hong Lianshuo with red eyes and asked, "Can't you think of a way? This is wheat."

"No!" Hong Lianshuo looked at him with cold eyes and said helplessly, "You will get sick if you eat it."

"They damn it, why didn't they distribute the food to the people in the city? They were surrounded at that time, and the people in the outer city had nothing to eat, so..." Mo Sanya squatted on the ground and swallowed, his voice hoarse and unable to speak.

, put his clenched fists into his mouth and whimpered...

Hong Lianshuo patted him on the shoulder and swallowed the words that came to his lips. Any words of comfort were pale.

"Is it much?" Hong Lianshuo looked at Han Qinhu and asked.

"There are nine official warehouses." Han Qinhu said sadly.

Hong Lianshuo was furious. He suppressed his anger and said, "Is it all wheat?"
