When the eunuchs and gentry of other counties heard that there was still this allusion in it, they also came to Luohekou to donate things. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info Those who didn't want to donate, when they look at this situation, what else do they say? Donate.

For a time, with Luohekou as the center, donating money and materials became a common practice. Even the folk customs in this area suddenly corrected. This form quickly spreads to the periphery. In less than five days, the entire southern disaster area has been united by the government and the people, and they have worked together to tide over the difficulties. If you walk in the disaster area, as long as you are thirsty, someone will give you water to drink, and when you are hungry, you will go to the porridge shack and have some food, and someone will naturally give you food.

People who have never met each other are like a family here. Everyone trusts each other unconditionally and helps each other. Even the thieves and scoundrels on weekdays seem to have been reborn and become human beings in the world.

The sons and young masters of those big families who are high up on weekdays all throw off their arms and work together with the ordinary people. There is no hierarchy here, only the affection of the villagers who stay with each other, and only the will to rebuild their homes together.

The county magistrate at Luohekou was kicked out of the county government at the beginning, and he still felt resentful in his heart, and his face was still dull. Now, he won't do anything if you ask him to go back. Although it is hard every day, that kind of steadfastness, that kind of selflessness and fearlessness, and that kind of people's aspirations are something that you can't experience after reading a lifetime of books and being an official for a lifetime. He even asked his wife to help out in the porridge shed. A county magistrate's wife lit a fire with a group of women every day, and delivered water and food to people who were busy building embankments and dams and rebuilding their homes. This in itself is a good example.

So the women of the big families followed suit. Of course, Lu Xiaoxiao was not to be outdone. Rolled up his sleeves and went to the front line of disaster relief. At this moment, what men and women are defended. Whatever rules and dogmas, stand aside. Disaster resistance and self-help are the first priority.

No one cared about the relief materials of the imperial court anymore, because even Qincha and the county magistrate were working with everyone day after day with mud on their legs and sweat. Doesn't this prove that the imperial court is at everyone's disposal? What if you don't have that little bit of supplies? With the imperial court supporting our people, what kind of catastrophe can't be overcome?

So, many times, the power of the spirit is endless. People in difficult situations, as long as they have faith, will give birth to unstoppable courage.

However, the world is not always complete, and two discordant notes unexpectedly jumped out in this piece of unity.

Donations from various parts of the south have been collected to the disaster area. In the past few days, Cheng Linghui has been planning for the people to save themselves, and on the other hand, he has to accept and regulate these materials. I was so busy that it was dark, and my feet didn't touch the ground.

This wind of donations spread in a certain south, and soon touched other prefectures and counties. There are also a certain west, there are also Zhili, and there are also a certain east have donated materials here. After all, no one is squeezing their lives to live, and who knows what obstacles they will encounter in the future. Help others by themselves. In case there are ups and downs in the future, leave yourself some hope. Checkpoints and piers along the way are the icing on the cake. These materials went all the way to a certain south.

Those who were not affected saw the supplies pass by their doors and be delivered to others in vain. It's a lie to say no-blushing. So there were people looting relief supplies. At first, it was just one or two people, and then it was ten or ten, and ten was hundred, and it became a gang.

Cheng Linghui has never been an official, and he is busy every day, and he is always unable to separate, who knows that these people are becoming more and more bold, and they even killed the people who came to deliver the materials because they suspected that they had grabbed few materials.

When Cheng Linghui heard it, it was worth it. At the moment, the prefectural order that was busy with mud was brought back. handed over the matter at hand to the county commander and fellow acquaintance Lu Gongmei, took the people and horses to disguise themselves as a material convoy, and went around the accident site.

Those people grabbed the hand, and they were more daring than the sky. I don't look at who it is, I want to rob when I rush up. The straw on the carriage was lifted, and the soldiers hiding inside jumped out. The two sides immediately fought together.

Those people were just ordinary people, but because they were jealous of those materials and greedy for their own selfishness, they went farther and farther on the road of robbery, so that they caused people to kill and attract officers and soldiers. It's too late to turn back.

As the old saying goes, don't do it because the good is small, and don't do it because the evil is small. Don't lie to me.

Those who were affected by the disaster, whose houses and property were all flooded, and even their families, wives and children were in trouble, and they worked hard to rebuild their homes because of the kindness of others. These people, just because they were interested in the interests of others for a while, moved by the evil idea of getting something for nothing, and gradually embarked on the road of plunder. Good and evil are really just a matter of thought.

Cheng Linghui straddled the horse and watched as those people fell under the swords of the officers and soldiers. The original anger has long since vanished. Looking at the red blood, my heart felt sour. She was looking for Chang Jiwen, but she accidentally put on an official robe. Wearing official clothes is the parents of the people. How can a parent be beaten to death because his children are unscrupulous?

Saving one side and defeating the other side is not useless work? Thinking of this, he raised his hand to stop the officers and soldiers who were fighting.

Those who robbed fled one after another, and for a moment ran away without a trace. Zhao Qiao said: "Third brother, you are returning to the mountain like this, I am afraid that there will be troubles." ”

Cheng Linghui sighed lightly: "They are just ordinary people, and they were blinded by greed for a while and went the wrong way. Sin is not unto death. ”

Zhao Qiao sneered: "You say this, let those benevolent people who donate money and materials hear it, don't you chill the hearts of good people in the world?" ”

Cheng Linghui was speechless. Looking at the people who fell to the ground, he said for a long time: "Tie these corpses to poles." Here, the county magistrate, the township chief, and the squire paraded through the streets. It is clear that he was killed by us for looting relief materials. I believe that after receiving this lesson, those people will no longer dare to have evil thoughts. ”

She looked at the people who were injured and not in serious trouble, and said, "These people have been found to be in good shape, and they are all in the army. ”

After sending out these people who robbed the supplies. I saw a little brother kneeling in front of the horse's head and crying. Cheng Linghui asked and found out that this little brother was going to the disaster area with the person who was killed to deliver donated materials. It was a good thing, but who knew that it was robbed. The horses and vehicles were gone, and the people who accompanied them died.

Cheng Linghui dismounted and personally helped the little brother up. I felt guilty in my heart: "It's me who can't mediate, and I'm tired of your kindness and suffering from this." If you are like this, you will not be able to return home. It's better to stay here for now. Wait for this to happen. I will support the coffin with you, and go back to your hometown to apologize to your fellow villagers. ”

When the little brother heard this, he cried even more: "How can that be done?" ”

Cheng Linghui said: "If something like this happens, it's my incompetence." I can't teach you to be embarrassed. ”

At that moment, he was escorted to the mouth of the Luohe River. I took people to the southern capital. Nandu Prefecture is a prefecture of a certain south. It is equivalent to the current provincial capital. Cheng Linghui went to Nandu to find Governor Fan Xiu. The looting of disaster relief materials made Cheng Linghui feel that it was inevitable that there would be omissions in completing the disaster relief matters based on the wishes of the people. On her own, she is really incompetent.

Originally, I heard Quansheng say that Fan Xiu withheld the disaster relief materials issued by the imperial court. So much so that Chang Jiwen couldn't successfully provide disaster relief, so he went to borrow grain from the squire, and died because of it. Cheng Linghui didn't plan to go to Fan Xiu. However, now that she is wearing official clothes, she has the responsibility of educating the people. We can't watch the tragedy of looting supplies happen again, and we can't let the hearts of good people in the world chill because of this.

Therefore, Cheng Linghui changed her mind and decided to go to Fan Xiu.

Nandu Prefecture was also affected this time. The city was flooded, and many houses collapsed. There was also a mess inside and outside the city.

For disaster relief, Fan Xiu did not dare to be lazy. However, progress has not been as significant as at the mouth of the Luo River.

Fan Xiu first used the excuse that he was busy with disaster relief matters and refused to see Cheng Linghui. Fan Xiu is a second-rank official, higher than Chang Jiwen's official rank. Therefore, those rogue tricks, Cheng Linghui really didn't dare to use them on Fan Xiu. But she can't help it, that is, to chase and intercept.

Unless Fan Xiu shrinks into the mansion forever and doesn't come out, he will always be caught by Cheng Linghui.

Cheng Linghui came to talk to Fan Xiu about escorting the disaster relief materials donated from various places, and did not mention the grain money issued by the imperial court. Fan Xiu's face became more pale. reluctantly agreed to Cheng Linghui to coordinate the personnel and horses and escort those supplies.

Cheng Linghui originally wanted to talk to him in detail, but who knew that Fan Xiu received a post report that the prince's car drove to Nandu Mansion and asked him to meet him.

Cheng Linghui pretended to be Chang Jiwen, and there was a ghost in her heart who didn't dare to see Su Tong's face. Although she was surprised at how Su Tong walked so slowly, she still left Nandu quickly. I went back to the mouth of the Luo River.

Although the county order at the mouth of the Luohe River is a bit mediocre, if someone commands it, it is still quite diligent. Not to mention Lu Gongmei. This person is thoughtful and good at scheduling. Luohekou should be in an orderly manner. Even the looting of materials that Cheng Linghui was most worried about never happened again.

Cheng Linghui couldn't figure it out, Lu Gongmei had such a talent, how could he be a nine-grade fellow here?

When Cheng Linghui returned to Luohekou, it was already five days later in the afternoon. Sleepless days and days of hard work, even an iron man can't stand it. Cheng Linghui returned to the back office, and fell asleep as soon as she dipped her head on the pillow.

Shen Cong and the others also went to rest.

Lu Xiaoxiao and her personal girl are not there, so they must have gone to the porridge shed.

This time it was quiet, so Cheng Linghui slept very sweetly.

Suddenly, a sweet and greasy taste rushed into his nasal cavity, Cheng Linghui was startled, and instantly sobered up. When I turned over, I was about to get up, but I felt that my head was as heavy as a thousand pounds. Suddenly he fell on the bed again. I wanted to call someone, but I found that I couldn't speak. I secretly screamed in my heart: "Oops, I'm afraid it's Chinese medicine." ”

I saw a masked man pry open the window and roll in. Slowly leaning towards the bed. The steel knife in his hand shimmered in the afternoon sun. Cheng Linghui said secretly: "It seems that I am going to confess here today." ”

The man touched the side of the bed and lifted the tent suddenly. Seeing Cheng Linghui lying on the bed with his eyes wide open, he raised his knife and slashed at Cheng Linghui. Cheng Linghui said secretly: "It's over." ”

After a while, the man's knife was not cut off. He tilted his body and fell to one side. I saw a man with a withered appearance, a pale face, and a scruffy beard, standing in front of the bed with his shoulders shrunk and trembling.

Cheng Linghui's tears welled up all of a sudden.

Although Chang Jiwen is a man, he has had no worries about food and clothing since he was a child. Even in the unlucky years when the Chang family was unlucky, he didn't suffer much hardship with Su Houye. It's really that I haven't even killed a chicken, and now I'm actually killing someone.

He was scared, but he didn't forget to comfort Cheng Linghui. hugged Cheng Linghui and said incoherently: "Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, I'm here." Silence is not afraid. ”

If Cheng Linghui hadn't been unable to move, he would have hugged Chang Jiwen and cried at this time. But now she can only let her tears drown herself......

Chang Jiwen also cried, but he didn't forget that there was still a dead body lying on the ground. He got up and looked at the corpse in sorrow. After a while, he realized Cheng Linghui's strange appearance, and said hurriedly: "What's wrong with you?" ”

Cheng Linghui couldn't speak, and signaled with his eyes that he had an antidote on himself.

Chang Jiwen hurriedly found the antidote and sent it to Linghui's mouth.

After the fifth master left, Cheng Linghui developed the habit of carrying various medicines with him. Because she knew that the fifth master would never protect herself again.

After a while, Cheng Linghui was able to move. She sat up and looked at Chang Jiwen: "Are you okay?" "There are a thousand words, but there is only this one sentence.

Chang Jiwen shook his head: "It's not good." I can't find you, how can it be good. ”

Cheng Linghui bowed her head: "I know it's wrong." ”

Chang Jiwen said: "Don't say that. Let's settle our accounts later, and deal with the matter in front of us first. ”

Before the words fell, I heard Deng Ku's voice shouting: "Third child, how are you?" A figure swirled in. Chang Jiwen was taken aback, and subconsciously blocked Cheng Linghui behind him.

Deng Ku saw him and shouted, "Who are you, why are you in my family's house?" ”

Chang Jiwen was about to speak out. Cheng Linghui said: "He is the person I sent to impersonate me before. ”

Deng breathed a sigh of relief: "I'm scared to death." I vaguely smell the smell of sweat medicine, I'm afraid that you have something wrong with you. Thankfully, thankfully......"

Cheng Linghui said: "I'm fine, please trouble Second Brother Deng to move this corpse out." I still have something to say to this man, and I'll check on this assassin later. ”

Deng Ku did not doubt that he had him, and immediately moved the body out.

Chang Jiwen waited for Deng Ku to go out, and grabbed Cheng Linghui's hand: "Where have you been for more than half a year?" The tone was urgent, but the countenance was serious.

Cheng Linghui was a little afraid to look at his face, and half-hung his head and said, "Don't worry, and listen to me to explain to you." "I only talked about how I met Quansheng and how I impersonated him. Of course, he didn't forget to tell him that he had married Lu Xiaoxiao for him.

"You......" Chang Jiwen gritted his teeth, eager to poke a hole in Cheng Linghui's head with one finger to see how her brain grew. But he was not so confused that he didn't understand what the situation of the two of them was now.

Impostor for Qincha, that is a big crime of killing the head.

It turned out that Chang Jiwen lost consciousness after falling into the water and was washed up in a shoal and stranded. At that time, the flood had just crossed, and there were people everywhere who lacked food and clothing. It's really hard to say that people can retain a little bit of humanity in a difficult situation. Chang Jiwen finally climbed ashore, but was robbed by several homeless people. Keep only one garment to cover your shame. Since then, he has been mixed in with the ranks of the victims. In order to survive, fishing, digging grass roots, it is really hard.

Fortunately, he also knew that he could return to the mouth of the Luo River by going upstream. He was originally a scholar, and he lacked food and drink, so he walked slowly along the way. Later, when he heard that someone was pretending to be himself in Luohekou for disaster relief, he was first angry. But what happened next made him admire the man who was pretending to be him. So, I didn't rush back, and worked with the people to fight the disaster and save myself.

Not long ago, I suddenly heard that the prince was coming. Chang Jiwen thought about it again and again, and felt that once this person pretending to be himself saw the prince, he was afraid that his life would not be guaranteed. It's a pity that such a talent fell because of disaster relief. And he returned. I hope I can do something for this person, at least to save this person's life.

He had lived in the county government before, and the officials in the county government knew him. Because of Cheng Linghui's relationship, they all thought he was Qincha's entourage. And let him in. and also told him where Cheng Linghui lived. (To be continued.) )
