My husband is a coward

Chapter 109

Huo Shu went to the county seat to make sure that his subordinates were not acting recklessly. He even sent someone to check the county magistrate's tone and found out that he was indeed not unjustly accused.

What one school does is effective.

Although some people had expected that officials in troubled times might not be much better than bandits, they never expected that they would be so bad.

The air pressure of the group was a little low.

In addition, Huo Shu inquired about the situation in the south in the city. Today, what the Yamen said was true. The Sixth Prince defeated the enemy pirates at the customs, causing the pirates to retreat steadily.

Jiang Yu later received another letter from the capital, and the situation in the capital also changed. The old emperor Long Yan Dayue greatly praised the sixth prince's trip. Although he did not make any promises, the three princes in the capital made many moves, which was visible. The old emperor's respect for the sixth prince.

"If Hailinfu is recaptured, the army will definitely attack Tongzhou."

Huo Shu said coldly: "I heard from a traitor that the rebels in Tongzhou have already reached out to Lianping Mansion with the intention of expanding northward."

Jiang Yuhou responded: "The rebels are not stupid either. They don't dare to invade south, and they don't dare to cause trouble. If our army cannot suppress the customs, pirates will rush into our territory and cross the sea to the next one." They will definitely attack the same state, after all, who doesn't know that it is a fertile land, and they will not be able to get any benefits at that time."

"The rebels don't want my territory to fall, but they can't sit still and wait for death. The best thing is to expand their territory as quickly as possible while their troops are at sea."

Huo Shu declined to comment.

After gathering information and purchasing what the villagers wanted, they hurried back.

Just when they returned to the village, the villagers dropped their hoes and surrounded them when they saw them: "What do you think? Can the government allow us to settle down?"

"In the past, when local disasters occurred and refugees moved to new places, as long as there were strong men, they were favored by the government. We can increase the population and improve their performance. We have so many strong men, so we should be able to negotiate good terms."

Ji Yangzong acted quickly and had already told the villagers that Huo Shu would go to inquire about the household registration.

In the past, they were waiting for Ji Yangzong to return to the village to announce the autumn harvest taxes to everyone, but now it was them.

Taoyu looked at the eager eyes of the villagers and finally understood why his father used to feel so heavy every time he went to the city for a gathering.

If it is good news, everyone is naturally happy; but if it is bad news like today, it is indeed disappointing.

Huo Shu only said: "Say in the courtyard."

When the villagers saw this, they immediately ran to tell each other, and soon a bunch of villagers gathered in the courtyard.

Huo Shu didn't hide anything from everyone, and made the government's attitude clear. If he didn't make it clear in advance, the villagers would not know the government's attitude, and it would be bad if they were blindly deceived by the government officials and brought people over to reveal their location. .
