Chapter 526: The Art of Inspecting People

I listened to Su You continue: "Back then, the river was flooded, and the people ate it. The rich minister ruled the Daimyo Mansion, persuaded the people of the department to go out of the millet and benefit the officials, and then found out more than 100,000 public and private houses, scattered the victims, and the salary relief was more convenient than centralized. ”

"The Daimyo's Mansion was Beijing, and there were many officials who were waiting to live in vain, and at that time, the rich minister gave them a fortune to go to the place where the refugees gathered as managers, and selected the old, weak, sick and barren to give alms, register their hard work, and promise him to ask for a reward for them one day."

"Every five days, he sent men to comfort them with wine, meat, and food, because out of sincerity, everyone did their best."

"After the water recedes, all the mountains and forests will be profitable for those who can survive, and the displaced people will take it for themselves."

"The deceased was buried in a large mound, called 'Cong Mound'."

"When the rice and wheat are ripe in the second year, the refugees will be given food and returned from far and near, and there are more than 500,000 refugees at that time, and tens of thousands of soldiers have been recruited."

"Judgment, unity, before the natural disaster, all available forces must be mobilized. With only one strength, it is difficult to save millions of lives in Hebei. ”

After speaking, he turned his head and asked Sima Guang: "Bachelor, is that so?" ”

Sima Guang nodded: "Yes, after Emperor Renzong heard about it at that time, he sent an envoy to praise him and worship the rich minister as the waiter of the Ministry of Rites." Fu Xianggong said: 'This is also the duty of a minister. 'Excuse me. ”

Su You said: "Therefore, the disaster relief strategy must be simple, and the second must be exhaustive. ”

"Now that the imperial court's relief has arrived, there are still many relevant relief and assistance measures to be announced, and the conditions for the judgment today are much better than those of Fu Xianggong, so I just take this opportunity to do it again. In order to boost the morale of the government and the people. ”

"Seeing that autumn is coming, it will be the day of winter wheat planting, and if things are delayed, it will be even more difficult to turn over the year."

Sima Guang said: "There is also a plague that is easy to break out in autumn, so we have to disperse quickly." What Mingrun said makes sense, since Fu Xianggong was effective back then, he might as well use it. ”

Su You continued to add: "In addition to the power of the government, the power of the private sector should also be used as much as possible. 100,000 copies of the booklet on disaster relief and epidemic prevention were also urgently printed. ”

"These are all done with the power of non-governmental charity, and when the time comes, we will take some of them to the epicenter of the disaster area, and leave some of them for Yunju to help you succeed."

Sima Guang said: "The Daimyo's Mansion is the most important in Hebei, and the disaster relief measures are carried out from the Daimyo's Mansion, which is the outline. After the matter is done, the old man and Mingrun will return to the capital, and they will ask the official family to take the judgment as the first credit! ”

Wang Guanglian is a person who is keen on official careers, otherwise he would not have tossed the Qingmiao Law privately in Shaanxi, and stood up when he heard the words: "Bachelors and servants, they are really important ministers of the state, after some guidance, the lower officials know what to do!" ”

Sima Guang also stood up: "Hearing is false, seeing is believing, so I will ask the judgment to take us to inspect the warehouse, and on behalf of Your Majesty, to comfort the officials and the people, without further ado, we will rush to Yingzhou." ”

Two days later, Sima Guang and Su You set off again with the survey team and grain ship.

Along the way, put down the boat, let the survey team go into the water to measure, and make an appointment to finally meet in Yingzhou.

Sima Guang was reading the hydrological data and newspapers sent from all over the country, and when he saw that Su You was well arranged, he expressed his admiration and said: "That Wang Guanglian is not as good as Brother Nai, and even less as Mingrun you." Why did Mingrun say a lot of good things to him? ”

Su You said: "If you want to overcome the difficulties together, you must use all the strength you can use, and when you are in the same boat, you can't pick and choose." ”

"As long as the measures are spread and more refugees can be saved, what is the point of a few kind words? How does the bachelor not think highly of him? ”

Sima Guang said: "The old man has his own ability to observe people, Wang Guanglian heard that you had a suggestion, and his expression was a little unpredictable at that time; When I heard that it was a rich and fair technique, my face turned a little back; When I heard that you and I would play with him, I was immediately in good spirits. Hehehe, such a person ......"

Su You was a little strange: "Then why doesn't the bachelor know that I am also enthusiastic about my career?" ”

Sima Guang laughed: "Su Mingrun's enthusiasm for his career is the biggest joke." The old man has been with you for many days, and knows that you seem to be on track, but in fact you are as anxious as a furnace. It can also be seen that your efforts are really for the people of the Great Song Dynasty, and not for the official career. ”

"Starting from Shuzhong, you have been doing all the way, Kuizhou, Weizhou, Wangzhou, and now as a prisoner, are they all good places? You're afraid that you're the most unlucky Tanhua of the country, haven't you ever noticed it? ”

Su You thought about it carefully, damn! And so it is! Coupled with the current river investigation, Lao Tzu's proper Great Song Dynasty is the saddest to explore flowers!

Sima Guang looked at Su You's stunned look with satisfaction: "With the appreciation of the rich Xianggong, Ouyang Yongshu, Zhang Fangping, and Zhao Luan, when they are in the court, if you think about your career, wouldn't it be easy to move a noble position of Hanlin Chengzhi?" ”

"But you never thought of doing this, and the old man admired you, but he didn't even think about it!"

"A few days ago, Sun Neng came to ask for advice on the Book of Han and said that you once told him that you had an old man's relationship, right?"

Su You didn't admit it: "This kid knows how to talk nonsense!" ”

Sima Guang smiled: "Let me tell you why, because the old men and old ladies have their own set of skills for inspecting people, and they have already practiced a pair of fiery eyes in the court, understand?" ”

I see, after all, I'm the real good person!

Sima Guang picked up the newspaper: "Teng Fu also arrived, knowing that the people did not dare to go home, so he lived in the official mansion, sleeping alone under the house, and said: 'The people rely on me to live, and the house destroys the people to die, and I should be the same as myself.'" 'The people began to return to their rooms. It's not easy......"

Su You said: "This is just the beginning, and it will be even more difficult to bury the dead, eat the hungry, remove the field tax, inspect the lazy officials, repair the embankment, repair the armor soldiers, and supervise the thieves." ”

……

The tragic situation along the way is shocking, there are human and animal corpses floating on the river from time to time, and in some places where the backwater is muddy, the corpses are gathered in one place, no less than dozens, and its state is unspeakable.

Below the current river are often roads, villages, and fertile fields. Many of the collapsed houses and the remnants of the pillars and walls stood in the middle of the river, like statues of despair, watching the fleet pass by.

Shi Wei hid in the cabin, unable to bear to see such a tragic situation.

What Sima Guang and Su You are worried about is that the epicenter of Yingzhou, I am afraid that the scene will be even worse than now.

A few days later, the fleet arrived in Yingzhou, and the two breathed a sigh of relief.

After the earthquake, the news was closed for a long time, and as a result, Yingzhou, which was the most severely affected, was in much better condition than the surrounding areas.

Officials here have played an active role.

Li Suzhi, after the Li family of Zhao County of Shandong Guan, Li Di's nephew, is absolutely capable.

Li Di is the champion of the Great Song Dynasty, he has served as the prime minister twice, he was mentioned in the previous book, Zhang Fangping was pitted the worst when he was young, it was Li Di who was sentenced to the Tianxiong Army, and then recommended to go to Que, Zhiji Xianyuan, and since then his career has begun to be open.

So when it comes to the family circle in the officialdom, it is actually not big, and it can be related to it when it comes around.

The Great Song Dynasty used literature to control the military, and when Peng Shixi rebelled, the old man was the transfer envoy of Hubei Road. So Ah Ho Lie, ah no, when Su Lie entered Hubei to quell the rebellion, he was the old man's real subordinate at that time.

The old man had a very good impression of Su Lie, compared to Di Qing Guo Kui, and the old man also mentioned Kuizhou Road Prison, and knew how hard that place was, so he was very blue-eyed to Su You, who turned Kuizhou over in two years.

Su You also admired this old man who was both civil and military, and he was worried about Sima Guang along the way, and he got an easter egg in Yingzhou.

"Heavy rain and earthquakes, government buildings and people's houses are bulldozing. Su Zhi went in and out of the mud, and the exposed people who built grass to store the millet were the residents, and the people who were enlightened and vibrated were given, and the theft was strictly punished, and one was engaged in military law. ”

After the earthquake, the people of Yingzhou rumored that there was going to be a big flood, so the people were very shocked and rushed to flee.

Li Suzhi was the pacification envoy in charge of Gaoyang Guanlu, and was also in charge of Yingzhou affairs, and sent people everywhere to persuade and pacify, and the rumors disappeared.

Immediately after the organization built warehouses, pulled up tarpaulins, built tents and grass huts, collected materials that had not been destroyed in various places, and stored them in a centralized manner.

By the time the heavy rain came and went, the old man had already raised 1.3 million stone of grain, and the amount of weapons and other supplies was also equivalent to this.

Immediately after, Li Suzhi ordered the soldiers to be issued weapons, always on alert, to maintain public order, and Yingzhou to implement military control.

Then the relief began, and at the same time, the countryside set drums than households, and there were thieves, beating drums, and the thieves responded from far and near, and the thieves declined.

By the time Su You arrived, Yingzhou had not only finished dealing with the disaster, but also repaired the affected houses in the city, and had already begun to rebuild the new city walls!

Absolutely fierce!
