Chapter 95: The Land of Fish and Rice (2)
Yuan Xiaochen and Tong Ling distributed the food as soon as possible, so that the refugees could all retreat, their food was limited, and everything that could be distributed was distributed, but only a small number of people received food. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
A woman dressed in tatters, her hair haphazardly coiled up as if it had not been washed for many days, barefoot, with multiple wounds on her feet, some of which were already grunched, some of which were still thin and bloody, held a thin child, who stared at the people who had been given food, and ate heavily, and the woman wiped the child's head and wept slowly, "Her poor child is about to starve to death." ”
Tong Ling walked over and looked at the last bun left in his hand and gave it to her, "Sister, this is the last bun for you!" ”
The eldest sister looked at the bun in front of her, took it, and said gratefully, "Thank you, you are such good people." ”
The woman picked up the bun and ate it, and after a few bites she realized that the child had not eaten it, and seeing the child looking at her with longing eyes, she spit out the bun in her mouth and fed it to the child.
Tong Ling looked at this sad scene, how could she ever worry about a steamed bun.
Yuan Xiaomo saw that there was no way to go on like this, and he would definitely ask the magistrate of the Najiang River to open a warehouse to help grain.
Qianchuan sent a letter to Doctor Xia Feige and came back, and it would take three days for Doctor Xia to come over at the earliest, and I don't know if the people of this river can persevere.
The group returned to the carriage and began to walk towards the city gate.
The soldiers on the city tower saw Yuan Xiaomo and his people under the city wall, and shouted, "I don't know who is here!" Our lords have instructed that no one should be allowed to enter the city, so let's go back to where we came from! ”
Chikawa looked at the people on the city wall and replied, "My grandfather is from Kyoto, and he came to inspect on the orders of the emperor. This is the token. Chikawa pulled out the token from the collar on his chest and showed it to the people on the wall.
The soldier looked at the token and was shocked, and felt nervous that people should inform Ding Jian'an.
Ding Jian'an is the prefect of Yanjiang, one thing on the surface, one thing behind the back, he regards wealth as his life, and he is insidious and cunning, he is a traitorous minister, colluding with his superiors, and embezzling court property.
The soldiers fought hard and opened the city gate and let Yuan Xiaomo and his party enter the city.
Ding Jian'an came to ask, and when he saw Yuan Xiaomo and his party, he quickly knelt down, and the officials were afraid that they didn't know which adult came to Kyoto for a private visit, and he missed the welcome, so please forgive me.
Yuan Xiaomo spoke, "You are Ding Jian'an, the prefect of Yanjiang?" Yuan Xiaomo had already heard of his personality.
"It's Xiaguan." Ding Jian'an raised his head and looked at the person who spoke, this look startled Ding Jian'an, the man on the horse was majestic, upright, with sharp facial features, and a sense of oppression came from his body. Ding Jian'an thought that this man was definitely not a thing in the pool. Be careful.
"Why did you close the gates of the city and leave the refugees out, when you knew that thousands of people outside were suffering from sickness, without food and clothing. As the prefect of the river, you did such a thing for your own selfishness. Yuan Xiaomo wanted to frustrate his spirit first.
"The lower official is wronged! A few days ago, there was a flood in the Qianjiang River and the plague was infected, and the Xiaguan had no choice but to isolate those infected with the plague and some people who had been in contact with the plague out of the Qianjiang River for fear of the spread of the disaster. Please see me clearly. "Ding Jian'an's mouth can say that the dead are alive.
Yuan Xiaomo pulled the corners of his mouth and sneered, "I see, Lord Ding has worked hard, I will definitely report to the emperor and ask him to promote you and increase your position." ”
Ding Jian'an laughed, "Then thank you, my lord, the lower official arranged a reception banquet for the lord, and the lord will come with the lower official!" ”
Ding Jian'an invited Yuan Xiaomo and his party to his mansion, dragged them all the way, and finally arrived at the gate of Ding's mansion.
Yuan Xiaomo came to the carriage to pick up Feng Meili down, Xue Qing rolled up the curtain, and Feng Meili slowly walked out of the carriage.
Ding Jian'an knew that there was a carriage behind, but he didn't know who was in the carriage, and now Feng Meili walked out of the carriage and let him see the true face of the people in the carriage.
This look really shocked him, his skin was as white as snow, his slender hands were slender, and his beautiful and delicate face all shocked him, Qujing actually had such a woman, and it was really different from Kyoto.
This had to make him doubt Yuan Xiaomo's identity, looking at Yuan Xiaomo so young, not like a courtier who was an official in the court, but more like a prince.
Thinking about it this way, Ding Jian'an already has a number, and now only the King of Mo and the crown prince will come to him to inspect the river! So will he be the crown prince or the king of Mo?
He still thinks that the crown prince is more likely, after all, King Mo is a god of war, and he always pays attention to the battle situation in Qujing, how can he have time to come to the river.
No matter who comes, he has to deal with it carefully, and it is best to hug his thighs, then he will be more comfortable in the future.
At present, it is decided that the affairs of the untouchables outside are the most important, in case there is a real riot and the plague is spread to the city, then he should not say that he will be promoted and rich, and his life will be gone.
"I don't know who this is?" Ding Jian'an asked Feng Meili about her origin.
"This is my wife." Qianchuan answered Ding Jian'an's question.
"It's the lady's wife! And adults are simply talented and beautiful, made in heaven. Ding Jian'an patted his ass.
“。。。。。。”
However, no one at the scene replied to his words. Ding Jian'an felt very embarrassed, and found another topic, like confirming Yuan Xiaomo's identity, "I don't know your surname?" ”
Yuan Xiaomo looked at Ding Jian'an, feeling that there was no need to hide his identity, it was time to press him, "What do you think of this king's surname?" ”
When Ding Jian'an heard the word prince, he immediately knelt down, "It's the lower official's clumsy eyes that he didn't know that it was His Royal Highness the prince, and asked the prince to forgive him." ”
"Lord Ding, our prince is the famous Seventh Prince Mo King, open your big eyes and see clearly!" Qianchuan said to Ding Jian'an.
"Xiaguan knows, thank you for telling this son, Xiaguan was frightened, and set up a reception banquet in Ding's mansion, and I hope that King Mo and Princess Mo will not dislike it." Ding Jian'an pinched a handful of sweat for himself, but he didn't expect it to be the King of Ink.
And Yuan Xiaochen and Tong Ling did not reveal their identities, but only played Yuan Xiaomo's entourage, following Yuan Xiaomo and Feng Meili.
The group was invited into the Ding Mansion by Ding Jian'an, and when they walked into the Ding Mansion, they really frightened Yuan Xiaomo and them, and he had to fight with the Ding Mansion and the Mo Wang's Mansion.
There are magnificent everywhere, there are front yards and back yards, comparable to palaces, how much money did Ding Jian'an embezzle, how many benefits did he get!
Feng Meili looked at all this, unspeakably angry, the people outside were suffering from disasters, while these people were enjoying the days like gods.
took the court's money, but what he did was not what a Qing official should do.
Yuan Xiaomo took everything to heart, but now was not the time to expose all this, he held Feng Meili's hand and made her calm down.
Yuan Xiaomo stepped forward to sit down and sat on the main seat, Ding Jian'an took the initiative to toast, "King Mo will toast you, I hope King Mo will achieve what he wants as soon as possible." After saluting, he sent someone to get something, "This is a little bit of the lower official's heart, it is for Princess Mo, and I hope Princess Mo likes it." ”
