Chapter 237: Human Blood Steamed Buns
After the emperor finished speaking, the commander of the Praetorian Guard left and withdrew all the people who were secretly staring at the Nine Princesses.
When Long Jiuling found out, he showed a sly smile, and then went back to the house.
……
Chen Xiao waited outside the city for almost an hour before he saw a figure coming this way.
If you look closely, it is Long Jiuling.
He was very curious, and when Long Jiuling got closer, he asked her:
"Girl, how did you get out?"
Long Jiuling smiled and said, "Dress up as a palace maid, and then take the token I stole from my father, and come out!" ”
She said it very lightly and justifiably!
Chen Xiao smiled: "Awesome, worthy of being my woman, awesome!" ”
Long Jiuling also smiled.
It's just that Tobe Kurabe Shiro was stunned.
He had seen the Ninth Princess, and his face had changed at this moment.
I thought that Chen Xiao was too bold and abducted the emperor's daughter?
Of course, he didn't dare say anything.
Just pretend you didn't see it!
Then, Chen Xiao and Long Jiuling entered the carriage, and this disaster relief team really set off.
It will take several days to get to the disaster area in the south.
Along the way, you have to pass through a lot of places.
Chen Xiao also regarded it as a publicly-funded tour, and it was not boring to travel with Long Jiuling along the way.
After they were gone for most of the day.
Suddenly, someone from the Nine Heavens Hall came, and the Nine Princesses were gone!
When the emperor heard the news, the whole person was stunned.
Then he slapped himself on the forehead:
"Oops...... I'm careless...... I should have thought that he Chen Xiao left so easily, and Jiu'er didn't move at all, which is not normal......"
The old eunuch was also a little speechless, and said, "Your Majesty, this ...... Do you want to send someone to chase after you? ”
"What are you chasing, I've been running for so long now, it's strange to catch up and come back...... Alas...... Don't worry too much, by Chen Xiao's side, there should be no danger. ”
What can the Emperor do now?
sighed helplessly: "Female university, don't stay ......"
The old eunuch smiled bitterly, and he didn't know what to say......
At the same time!
Zongren Mansion, Hu Zhaoyi, who had been thinking about it on the wall, looked at his son and said:
"Chen Xiao, did you really go to the south?"
"It's true!" The third prince said.
"Okay, what a chance!" Hu Zhaoyi was very excited.
The third prince also said: "The child also thinks the same, he left the imperial capital, and we are easy to do." After all, there are too many eyeliners in the imperial capital, so it's not good to act rashly! ”
"Well, you contact the ministers on the south side who have a relationship with us, and ask them to find a way to kill him...... Benefits are indispensable! Hu Zhaoyi said.
The third prince gritted his teeth: "The child understands, this time, Chen Xiao will not be allowed to come back alive!" ”
After finishing speaking, the third prince left with a serious face.
Hu Zhaoyi took a deep breath and said:
Chen Xiao...... Only you are dead, everything ...... to stop......"
……
The other side!
Chen Xiao, Long Jiuling and the accompanying officials traveled for a full four days, and finally arrived in the south.
In the south, the affected ones are Sankou County and Qingchuan County under the jurisdiction of Thuan Ninh Province in Nam Giang Province!
In these two counties, there were floods, countless deaths and injuries, and the people were hot!
After arriving at the place, Chen Xiao saw the scenes, which simply shocked him!
Near these two counties, almost everywhere you can see, there are people affected by the disaster.
The people I saw were all homeless.
Many elderly people and children even sit on the side of the road, and they don't even have the strength to beg.
From time to time, an old man or a child falls asleep and never wakes up!
Some young and middle-aged people begged for alms along the way, or dug wild vegetables in the hillside fields to find anything to eat without eating the dead.
You can see people selling children and daughters everywhere, just for a bite of food, just so that their children can stutter!
This scene is heart-wrenching!
"This ...... It's just approaching the land of the two counties, and it's already like this? Where are millions of people affected? I think...... It's almost two million people......"
Although I had already guessed that the disaster was more serious than I imagined, I didn't expect that it would be twice as serious!
Long Jiuling didn't even dare to look at those scenes.
How had she ever seen any of these scenes?
At this moment, the whole eye is red!
"What about the magistrates? What do they eat? Doesn't care about this situation? Long Jiu Ling said angrily.
Chen Xiao sighed: "They only dare to report as lightly as possible, so as not to affect their assessment, as for the people, where do they really care?" ”
Long Jiuling said, "They ...... Is it really that bold? One party is an official, how can this situation be ignored? ”
"Along the way, you have seen many victims, but have you ever seen a person from the yamen!" Chen Xiao said lightly!
Long Jiuling thought for a while: "There is no ......"
"All, where is there anyone who really cares about the life and death of the people?" Chen Xiao sneered.
Long Jiuling was stunned, and then said angrily: "If you really do such inaction, you should die!" ”
"Right...... Damn it! ”
Chen Xiao nodded, and then said, "Speed up and go to Sankou County." ”
So, the carriage passed by the victims one by one, and quickly headed towards Sankou County.
After entering the city, Chen Xiao said to Kurabe Shilangzhong: "This official goes to the county government, you, take someone to the county government department grain storage." ”
Kurabe Shiro was puzzled: "My lord, what are you going to do?" ”
"Take the first step and go to see the grain, in addition, this officer warns you that the officers and soldiers must take care of the grain reserves!" Chen Xiao ordered solemnly!
Kurabe Shiro was still puzzled, and Chen Xiao continued:
"If there is a problem with the grain storage, such as a fire or something, then you will be burned together!"
Kurabe Shiro suddenly understood: "My lord is worried that when you come, they will set fire to the so-called granary, which has no food?" ”
Chen Xiao sneered: "It's good if you understand!" ”
Kurabe Shiro nodded admiringly: "Xiaguan will go immediately, and promise not to give anyone a chance to burn the granary!" ”
After saying that, Kurabe Shiro left with someone.
Long Jiuling didn't understand: "Why would someone burn the granary?" ”
Chen Xiao said: "Because of local corruption, many local granaries are empty, and they do not meet the grain storage standards required by the imperial court. ”
Long Jiuling nodded: "So, the flood in this place, the county order has not done anything, you are worried that there is no grain in the granary at all, and when the time comes, he will send someone to burn the granary, just say it was an accident?" Nothing to check out! ”
Chen Xiao nodded, it goes without saying!
At this time, the carriage had already arrived at the county office.
Chen Xiao got out of the carriage, and the accompanying officers and soldiers wanted to come forward to report, but he stretched out his hand to stop him.
and signaled to the officials of the county government that they were not allowed to move.
Immediately, he took the officers and soldiers and entered the county office.
There was no one in the front yard, only a few small officials.
Further into the backyard, I heard laughter.
Chen Xiao continued to go in, and saw that in the hall in the backyard of the county government, the officials of the county government were eating big fish and meat around a large table.
There are also beautiful maids and big fans pouring wine around.
At this moment, Chen Xiao only felt anger rise from his heart.
Where is this table full of dishes? It's clearly a human blood steamed bun!
