At the beginning, I became a county magistrate with greed of 500 million. The empress asked me to be

"That's fine. I'll just wait for the Governor-General in the camp."

Xia Yun laughed.

He didn't care that Lei Zhenning didn't come to greet him.

In fact, when he heard that Lei Zhenning was heading to the southeast coastal area, he felt a little more at peace.

After all, as the governor of Zhejiang Province, he hopes that the governor-general of Zhejiang Province will be someone who can actually lead troops to fight.

"Governor, please follow me."

Soon, under the leadership of Chen Jingzhong, Xia Yun entered the governor's tent where Lei Zhenning was for the first time.

When he was the prefect of Hangzhou, he was busy fighting with Chen Hanzhi and others and had never been here.

"General Chen, I brought 200,000 dan of grain and fodder with me. Please take them to the grain and fodder warehouse."

After sitting down in the governor's tent, Xia Yun mentioned the matter of 200,000 dan of grain and fodder.

Upon hearing this, Chen Jingzhong's face immediately showed joy.

Although he had seen the food and fodder convoy following Xia Yun when he came to meet him, he did not know the exact amount of food and fodder at that time.

"Give me more kindness, Governor!"

Chen Jingzhong had a respectful look on his face and immediately bowed to Xia Yun.

Not long after, Chen Jingzhong left Xia Yun and went to deal with the issue of food and fodder.

Xia Yun waited quietly in the governor's tent until an hour passed and it was almost dawn.

Xia Yun, who was drowsy in the armchair, suddenly heard a slightly rough voice.

"I am late for coming back, please forgive me, Governor."

Xia Yun was startled by the voice, his pupils suddenly widened, and his mind instantly became clear.

Looking closely, it turned out to be Lei Zhenning who had returned from outside and appeared in the governor's tent with a kind look on his face.

"Master Lei is joking."

Xia Yun immediately stood up and bowed to Lei Zhenning.

Lei Zhenning returned the greeting at the same time.

In Xia Yun's eyes, although Lei Zhenning was only in his fifties, he looked like an old man.

At least those he had seen in the capital, whether it was Zhao Gongming, Xiao Yan, Prince Zhao, or the Little Cabinet Minister, all looked far less haggard than Lei Zhenning.

"I am not in the camp, so you guys don't know the rules?"

Suddenly, Lei Zhenning looked at Chen Jingzhong beside him.

Seeing this, Chen Jingzhong showed a look of slight surprise on his face, not understanding where he had failed to understand the rules.

"Hurry up and prepare the wine and meat!"

Lei Zhenning looked helpless and scolded softly.

Chen Jingzhong suddenly realized.

Xia Yun had been here for so long, but he actually forgot to entertain him properly. He quickly turned around and left the tent to prepare the wine and meat.

"Don't be surprised, Governor. People on the march don't know etiquette."

Seeing Chen Jingzhong going downstairs to prepare wine and meat, Lei Zhenning turned around and looked at Xia Yun again, with a slightly apologetic look on his face.

"You don't have to do this, Governor. Xia is not a spoiled person."

Xia Yun laughed.

"Let's not talk about that anymore. Come on, Sir Xia, please take a seat."

Lei Zhenning laughed and led Xia Yun to the front of the governor's tent and sat down.

"I heard that Lord Xia sent another 200,000 dan of grain and fodder. This governor is extremely grateful."

After the two sat down, Lei Zhenning talked about food and fodder.

Since Xia Yun came to Hangzhou, he has delivered 400,000 dan of food and fodder to the camp, which made him quite grateful.

You know, ever since the famine in Zhejiang, the imperial court has assigned the task of transporting food and fodder to the Zhejiang camp to Nanzhili.

However, due to geographical barriers, the transportation of grain and fodder in Nanzhili often encountered various bad weather conditions or accidents.

Therefore, every time the grain from Southern Zhili was transported to the Zhejiang camp, a small half of it would be soaked and moldy.

Even though Lei Zhenning was the governor-general of Zhejiang, it was not easy for him to punish the governor of Southern Zhili for such a matter.

But since Xia Yun took office as the prefect of Hangzhou, all problems were solved.

"You are too polite, Governor. The Zhejiang Camp is to protect the safety of Zhejiang. Xia is now the Governor of Zhejiang, so it is natural for me to ensure the supply of food and grass for the Zhejiang Camp."

Xia Yun was not bragging.

According to the calculation of the 100,000 troops in Zhejiang Camp, the food and fodder consumed in a month was about 70,000 dan.

Even if all of the 70,000 dan of grain and fodder were supplied by Zhejiang every month, Xia Yun could fully handle it.

"Xia came to the Governor's Camp mainly to thank Lord Lei for the letter he sent to the capital."

"The situation in the capital is dire. Thanks to the care of the Ninth Prince, Xia is safe."

As he spoke, Xia Yun's face revealed a look of sincere gratitude.

Although what he said was a bit exaggerated, the Ninth Prince Xiao Yan did give him a lot of help in the capital.

However, after hearing this, Lei Zhenning suddenly burst into laughter.

"Haha, Lord Xia is too modest. If you hadn't slaughtered thousands of soldiers of King Zhao and King Mu in the capital, even with Xiao Yan here, it would have been difficult to save them."

Obviously, Lei Zhenning already knew what Xia Yun had done in the capital.

Xia Yun was a little surprised, but after thinking about it, he understood.

Since Lei Zhenning could send letters to Xiao Yan, Xiao Yan could naturally also write letters to Lei Zhenning.

Presumably, before he returned to Hangzhou, Lei Zhenning had already learned what happened in the capital.

At this time, Chen Jingzhong, accompanied by several guards, entered the governor's tent carrying a table of wine and meat.

"Master Xia, this is beef shipped from Nanzhili. It has been pickled in the camp for many days."

After Chen Jingzhong brought the wine and meat to the table, he looked at Xia Yun with a bit of apology.

"Master Xia, this is a military camp. We can't compare to the delicious food in Hangzhou City. Please forgive me."

When the table was brought to him, Lei Zhenning also burst into hearty laughter.

"Master Lei, why do you say that? Xia will respectfully obey your orders."

Xia Yun said with a smile at the same time.

For him, he doesn't have too many pursuits when it comes to food, but he certainly likes carefully prepared delicious meals.

He can also enjoy this purest beauty of food.

"Lord Xia brought us 200,000 dan of food and fodder, and distributed the rest of the wine and meat to the brothers."

When Chen Jingzhong left the big tent, Lei Zhenning's voice sounded right behind him.

"The general will get the order!"

Chen Jingzhong responded and accepted the order.

Soon, Lei Zhenning and Xia Yun were the only ones left in the big tent, and they started eating in front of the table full of wine and meat.

After a few drinks, Lei Zhenning finally asked Xia Yun about his other purpose.

"Master Xia, you are here so late at night. Is there anything else you want to do?"

Lei Zhenning looked at Xia Yun with a smile and asked.

In his opinion, if Xia Yun wanted to transport food and fodder, he could just wait until daytime.

But Xia Yun came to the Governor's camp overnight, so there must be other things.

"Lord Lei is wise. In addition to escorting grain and fodder to thank you for your care, I am here for two other things."

Don't tell lies in front of smart people. Xia Yun immediately nodded in response.
