Chapter 380: Various Arrangements (Part 2)

Xue Fu said: "Our adult's name is Xue Donglin, and he is a famous person who has been admitted in the fourteenth year of Shengguang. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 infoBecause there is Prime Minister Xue in the clan as an official in Chaojing, my family volunteered to be sent to Jiangnan, and he was transferred to Qizhou eight years ago. The adults of my family are low-key, and they will never ask for help from the clan if they have a strong temperament, and they are conscientious officials in Qizhou. In previous years, the Yellow River would also be flooded, and the adults in the past would ask about it. Three years ago, the newly appointed prefect has never paid attention to it since he took office, and if something happens, he can suppress it, but fortunately, there has been no major incident in the past two years. ”

"But this year, there has been a lot of rain since the beginning of summer, and at the confluence of the Yellow River and the Han River in Qizhou, there are a few places where the embankment is a little loose. Mr. Zhang, who had built the embankment early in the morning, had mentioned that he would rebuild the levee this year, but this year was the year when the prefect was about to move, and he didn't want to ask the court for money for the construction of the embankment. ”

Huan Ji opened the account book and flipped through it casually.

Huan Ji asked: "Looking at the contents of the account book, the imperial court has not allocated less money to repair the river embankment. ”

Xue Fu was shocked, and said in his heart: "The wives of Qingzhou officials are so powerful, if you look at the account books at will, you can see how much money is in and out, no wonder Master Yushi wants to take his wife out." ”

Xue Fu continued: "My lord Mingjian, in order to get up and down, the prefect actually embezzled the money from repairing the river embankment. Although my family has a long history, I don't know what the adults like it, so I just do my share on weekdays. When I left, there was already a gap in the embankment of the Yellow River, and I heard that the downstream had begun to flood, but fortunately, the people downstream were accustomed to it and escaped early in the morning. We adults are afraid that the embankment will be destroyed at the intersection of Qizhou and Hankou, and now we are strengthening it day and night. My family didn't want the truth of the river embankment breach to be hidden, so I let the little one go to Beijing with the account books and the list to file a complaint. ”

Huan Ji hurriedly asked: "In other words, the river mouth is only a small place now, and the embankment has burst, isn't it very serious?" What about the prefect of Begzhou? “

Xue Fu said with a look of disdain: "When there was a gap in the river embankment, the prefect fled with his wife and children overnight. His uncle is the political secretary of Jiangnan Province, and his father-in-law is the inspector of Jiangnan Province, so it is estimated that they are thinking about what kind of blockade news. ”

Huan Ji said angrily: "It's really audacious, and you dare to deceive the people and ignore the lives of the people." ”

Xue Fu glanced up at this imposing woman, and then at the adult with a calm face and said: "Please take care of my young master for the sake of my lord, my lord has been separated from his wife for the sake of the people all these years, and he has this lone seedling when he is over forty years old, if the adult can send him to Prime Minister Xue's house in Beijing, the Xue family will be grateful to you." ”

This is a great benefit, no matter how high your status is, it will not be higher than the prime minister.

Huan Ji asked, "What is the relationship between your master and Xue Dongwei?" ”

Xue Fu said: "My master is the cousin of Young Master Dong Wei, and he is the oldest of the Dong children of the Xue family. ”

Huan Ji: "Don't worry about leaving the child here, I'll let someone send him away later, but don't you worry about us?" ”

Xue Fu said: "The villain has already inquired, the adult is an official of the Qingzhou Mansion, I heard that there are no corrupt officials in the Qingzhou Mansion, and the villain believes in the adult and the lady." The villain wants to go back to find the old lady, if it weren't for these evidences and the little young master, Xue Fu would rather die in Beggar. ”

Huan Ji said: "Now you still stay here, no one can say what happened in the end of Qizhou, and when the people here settle down, the disaster relief materials from Qingzhou will come, and we will go to Qizhou together." ”

In fact, these are secondary, and the most important thing is that Huan Ji transferred fifty ships of sediment, five hundred small boats, and fifty thousand Tang sailors.

Those ships have already departed from Qingzhou, Fuzhou, Guangzhou and other places, and they will be able to reach Jingzhou in a few days.

His Majesty's relief supplies should arrive soon.

The grain and grass transported from Qingzhou went to Xiangzhou, and then changed from Xiangzhou to Jingzhou.

The Yellow River in the lower reaches of Jingzhou is watering, and the upper reaches of the Han River can still be navigated.

Huan Ji asked people to arrange the residence of Xue Fu and the others, and Li Geng quietly asked people to carefully investigate the origin of Xue Fu and the others. See if what he said is true, after all, the origin of these two people is too easy to check, write a letter to Jingshi and ask Xue Dongwei It will be clear.

In the room, Huan Ji took off her long skirt and changed into a short dress worn by a peasant. Although it is not as easy to wear as men's clothing, it is also stronger than a long skirt.

Wang Yuyang: "I'll take people to the dam, and you will preside over the overall situation in the city." ”

Huan Ji was moved in her heart, "Are you worried about me?" ”

Wang Yuyang: "Yes." ”

Huan Ji smiled: "Thank you, then you be careful." Huan Ji didn't refuse, someone in the city needs to preside over the overall situation, and it's unrealistic for her to run at both ends. Except for Wang Yuyang, none of the others knew how to prevent floods.

Huan Ji: "Pay attention to rest, we just need to do our best and have a clear conscience." ”

Wang Yuyang hugged Huanji, put his head in her neck and nodded.

In the shock of the officials, Wang Juma participated in the flood control preparations for the first time, and he personally led people to supervise the construction of the embankment.

For them, Wang and Ma are gods, and the first one is to have the courage to marry Princess Huanji; The second is that he doesn't care about anything other than Princess Huanji; The third is his immortal temperament, erudite and talented, and those who are familiar with him are sorry for him.

Gu Yuan led a medical team to build more than a dozen refugee camps inside and outside the city, and all the sick were isolated and cared for by medical staff composed of refugees.

Li Geng took more than half of the people to follow Wang Yuyang to the dam, Wang Yuyang was not good at words, and Huan Ji was not at ease, so he let him follow.

The thirty officials brought by Huan Ji performed their duties and counted the grain and grass; Those who investigated the prefect of Qizhou went around to investigate the people of Qizhou; Even the prefect of Jingzhou took people to maintain order in the city.

After Wang Yuyang and other officers and soldiers left Jingzhou City to go to the embankment, Huan Ji found the prefect and held a small meeting with the remaining dozen or so court officials.

Huan Ji: "There will be more and more refugees, and we can't support them for nothing. ”

The prefect of Jingzhou said: "My lord, if there is no food, if the victims riot, it will be a big deal." ”

Gu Yuan sat beside Huan Ji without moving.

One official said: "Sit and listen, don't talk nonsense if you don't understand." ”

The prefect of Jingzhou immediately closed his mouth, the one sitting above was Princess Huanji, the female official next to her was the first celebrity in front of Princess Huanji, and all the officials and nobles who were hand-picked by the emperor were all around her, maybe any of them had a net worth background, but he didn't dare to offend anyone.
