Zhao Hanzhang said to the watchman: "Take them to the county government office to register."
Zhao Hanzhang turned his head and looked at them, "Magistrate Fan died in the battle and his household registration was lost. This is your only chance to get the land again."
An old man couldn't help but asked: "What about taxes..."
Zhao Hanzhang said: "Xiping is suffering from such a calamity, and we still have to plead with the court for food relief. Where can we turn over taxes and food?"
Zhao Hanzhang directly made the decision, "All taxes and grain for the Golden Autumn period will be exempted."
Surprise burst out in everyone's eyes, and even those who handed over the treasure were no longer stifled, and hugged each other happily.
Zhao Ming asked Buqu to collect all the belongings on the ground and followed Zhao Hanzhang away.
The young man looked at it for a while, and hurriedly caught up with Zhao Hanzhang and said: "Girl, they haven't finished handing over yet. I know there are still several families who have picked up pearls and gold nuggets."
"Really? That's a pity," Zhao Hanzhang responded casually, stopped and turned to look at him, "What's your name?"
"I, I don't have a name. I am the girl's now. Please give me a name, girl."
Zhao Hanzhang thought for a while and then said: "There is a word that is good for a name, Yi. This is Xiping, so you can call it Pingyi."
The young man's eyes widened, and he suppressed his excitement and said, "Thank you, Miss, for the name. Miss, can I take your last name?"
Zhao Hanzhang smiled at him and said, "Then you have to work harder."
Zhao Ju glanced at the boy, a little unhappy.
Not everyone can follow their master's surname. There are thousands of Zhao clan members, but only a few can be given the surname Zhao by the clan leader.
This guy dared to make such a request just after he came in. He was so ignorant.
The two teenagers beside Ping Yi tugged at the corners of his clothes, and Ping Yi immediately said: "Girl, my two brothers don't have names either. Please give them names too."
Zhao Hanzhang looked at the other two young men and saw that they were all looking at her eagerly. She pointed at the taller young man and said, "Since he has chosen the word "righteousness", then you can take the word "loyalty", Pingzhong."
She looked at the other boy and said, "Ordinary letter."
The three young men all became excited and knelt down to kowtow to Zhao Hanzhang, thanking her for the name.
Zhao Hanzhang did not let them leave, but asked them to follow him and lead the way. Even though they were young and lived in a slum, if they had the courage to sneak out to pick up treasures when the two parties were fighting, they would know too much information.
.
For example, "This is Mr. Song's house. A lot of gold, silver and jewelry were robbed from his house. I secretly saw them carrying out boxes one by one."
Zhao Hanzhang asked: "Is their family willing?"
"If you don't want to, what can you do? The rebels invaded, and many of their servants died. I don't know where they hid in the end to avoid the rebels' search. They came out after you fought off the rebels."
Zhao Hanzhang knew it in her heart, and she went directly to the Song family.
Since we want to offer condolences, we must treat them equally, and every family will not be disappointed.
The Song family was in a mess, and their vitality was indeed severely damaged. There was no one guarding the door. It took Bu Qu a long time to knock on the door before opening it.
Seeing Zhao Hanzhang appearing at the door with so many people, the person who opened the door felt weak in his legs and almost knelt on the ground.
Zhao Hanzhang stretched out his hand to support him, looked him up and down and asked, "Is your surname Song?"
The young man nodded.
Zhao Hanzhang said: "No wonder he looks familiar. I am the third wife of the Zhao family. I come to see your father."
The young man said silently: "The head of the Song family is my brother."
"Oh," Zhao Hanzhang apologized immediately, "My husband looks quite young, and your father is really old and strong."
Song Zhi:……
Zhao Hanzhang originally wanted to express condolences at the door and then leave. After all, the county is so big and there are still many places she needs to go to.
But she heard some sounds coming from deep inside the house. After twitching her ears, she was not polite and walked in. "I came to see how each family is doing. Is your family okay?"
Song Zhidao: "Thank you very much for your concern, girl. Although the family is sad, it can still support us."
Zhao Hanzhang nodded, and just as he was about to ask them about the number of casualties, he heard loud cries and screams from a woman inside.
Zhao Hanzhang stopped asking and walked over quickly.
Song Zhi hurriedly followed behind, but did not stop him. When he saw Zhao Hanzhang going in, he hurriedly ran two steps to catch up and lead her the way.
Seeing her looking over, Song Zhi smiled sheepishly at her, lowered his head and said, "My eldest brother is over here."
Zhao Hanzhang followed him and soon walked around the screen wall to a courtyard.
A group of people in the yard were pulling a young girl, and a middle-aged woman was trying her best to stop her and stood in front of the young girl.
Zhao Hanzhang stood by the screen wall and asked, "What are you doing?"
Mr. Song, who was so angry that his face was red and his neck was thick, his face was frozen. He realized what he was doing and quickly stepped forward to salute, "Why is Sanniang here?"
"The people in the city are panicked. I came out to comfort them." Zhao Hanzhang's eyes fell on the young girl. She remembered her and recognized her at a glance. She had just snatched someone back from the rebels not long ago. Zhao Hanzhang withdrew his gaze and asked: "
What happened at Mr. Song’s house?”
Naturally, Mr. Song couldn't tell the scandal to anyone, so he smiled awkwardly and said, "It's nothing. It's just that many people died in the family, and the female family members were a little frightened, and they started making noise for a while."
Zhao Hanzhang looked at the young girl, his face darkened, and he said solemnly: "This is my fault, the war has been so cruel, and it is not easy for people to survive. You are lucky to be alive, you should cherish this life and comfort your loved ones.
How can we add to the grief of our loved ones at this time of grief?”
She looked at Zhao Hanzhang with tearful eyes, and they stared at each other for a while. Tears fell from her eyes, and she knelt down respectfully towards Zhao Hanzhang, put her hands on her forehead, and said with a choked voice: "Wei, I just obey.
The teachings of a girl.”
Mrs. Song looked at her daughter-in-law in surprise and turned to look at Zhao Hanzhang.
Master Song's face turned green.
Zhao Hanzhang raised his eyebrows. He wanted to leave after persuading her, but she didn't want to leave now. She simply took two steps forward and asked, "What's your name?"
She glanced at her hairstyle and asked with a smile, "Are you the aunt of the Song family, or your daughter-in-law?"
She said: "My maiden name is Chen, I am the fourth in the family, and my husband is Song Erlang."
Zhao Hanzhang asked: "Where is Song Erlang?"
Chen Siniang almost burst into tears as she said: "My husband was killed by the rebels."
Zhao Hanzhang sighed and said: "My condolences and submission."
Then he asked: "Are you literate?"
Chen Siniang was stunned for a moment and then said: "I have read a few books with my brother."
"Then are you willing to come to me temporarily to help me?" Zhao Hanzhang turned around and said to Mr. Song: "Master Song, Xiping County is in desperate need of development. It is the time to employ people. I wonder if you are willing to let Chen Siniang come to me.
help?"
Mr. Song was stunned for a moment and then said: "If Sanniang needs someone, why not ask my second brother to help?"
Zhao Hanzhang glanced at Song Zhi and said with a smile: "Come all, I am missing more than one or two."
Mr. Song pondered for a moment and then responded.
Zhao Hanzhang then took his leave and said to Song Zhi and Chen Siniang: "You should rest today and come to the county office to see me early tomorrow morning."
