Population migration has always occupied a fairly clear vein in the history of China, and the most famous of them is the large-scale migration caused by the Anshi Rebellion.

Whether it is the shame of Jingkang or the Anshi Rebellion, it is the northerners who moved south to avoid war and disasters, and the reason why the Anshi Rebellion can be more iconic in the historical process of population migration is that this migration is no longer centered on the Yellow River Basin, so that the distribution of the population in the north and south has reached a balanced state for the first time in history.

War is the initial reason for migration, and similarly, natural and man-made disasters are also an important reason for large-scale population migration, whether it is to go to the east or take the west exit, the ancient road, the north garden, and the South Sea, it is enough to say that the people have to be forced to migrate in order to survive.

When Ye Qing was still in the Liao Kingdom, he had been worried about the famine in the north led by Jinan Mansion, and the Guandong was to send the people here to the old nest where the Jin Kingdom is now, so this matter made Ye Qing have to worry about whether it would be because of the famine, so that the people who fled the famine would make a living, and then yīn formed a false impression that the Jin Kingdom was more popular with the people.

Huainan East Road and other places took the initiative to receive a large number of victims, and the Beidi Fifth Road was thrifty and frugal, and there was no shortage of food from Li Lifang, but the disaster of the flooding of the Yellow River was obviously not solved in one or two years, and Ye Qing still needed to find a way to make the Beidi Fourth Road stable as always.

The construction of Jinan Mansion can make the majority of the people who are not willing to go south without enough food and clothing, and temporarily have a livelihood to barely survive and make ends meet under the construction of the city by Lu Yanlun and Xiao Zhen in Jinan Prefecture.

And now that he wants to rebuild Chang'an City, Ye Qing also hopes to consume and absorb the victims in this way, and temporarily alleviate the current people's livelihood dilemma by building and recuperating the disaster.

Xin Qiji was busy in the five roads of the Northland, there were a large number of victims who needed to be resettled every day, and there were countless mouths to eat every day, especially in the month or two before Ye Qing was trapped in Guanshan, the grain transported by the Transshipment Division from Jiangnan was also stopped by the imperial court.

Fortunately, after everything was safely escaped from Guanshan by Ye Qing, although the imperial court had not yet loosened, the people of the Transshipment Division began to transport a large amount of official grain by water again.

Bai Chun and the Red Mansion listened to Ye Qing talk about the various reasons why this winter was difficult, and asked with beautiful eyes: "Although the Yangzhou Chamber of Commerce can't enter the Xia Kingdom during that time, can't even guarantee the grain in the north?" ”

"After all, it's a business, even if Allure puts everything on the line, how can it compare to the Shangguan Mansion to release grain? Although the Yangzhou Chamber of Commerce is a drop in the bucket, it is precisely because of the Yangzhou Chamber of Commerce's nearly two months of buying grain that it can be regarded as barely making the Beidi Fifth Road run out of food, and there is no cause of resentment among the people. Otherwise, once there is a slight public complaint on the five roads in the northland, it will be empty to talk about anything. "Ye Qing is rare to be able to eat hot pot, drink fine wine, and have beauties on the left and right.

"And what are you going to do next?" Bai Chun asked thoughtfully.

Ye Qing was stunned for a moment, then his eyes began to look to the west, and he muttered to himself: "The reason why I suffered such a big loss this time is that in addition to the umbrella's attention being too concentrated, it is the spy ...... we can use in the Xia Kingdom." ”

Bai Chun was speechless and glanced at Ye Qing, who was muttering to himself,

patted Ye Qing's arm and said angrily: "I mean, Allure, Qingyan, and Zhong Qing, what should they do?" Who asked you about that nonsense. ”

"They can't leave, Huainan East Road can't be empty, it's like the rear of the Beidi Fifth Road, and almost everything in the future will go through Huainan East Road to the Beidi, so Allure must stay in Yangzhou. Zhong Qing has no way to leave, and if he leaves, unless it is ....... Ye Qing stopped talking halfway through the words, but whether it was Red Mansion or Bai Chun, they understood that unless Ye Qing really wanted to rebel, then he might take Zhong Qing over.

Ye Qing's concept is very good, with Yangzhou as the rear and then radiating to the various major cities in the north, the first will be Chang'an, Luoyang, and Jinan Mansion, to this day, he is still very afraid of Kaifeng, so he does not plan to touch there, after all, if it is lost by the people, it will not be easy to do.

On the third day of the arrival of Bai Chun, the snow finally fell silently before dawn, and the whole world was covered in silver, and every part of the world under the sun was full of fresh tranquility and purity.

Standing on the tower of Chang'an City, the world in front of you is particularly dazzling under the reflection of the sun, and on the ground like snow-white rice paper, a small group of cavalry is slowly moving towards Chang'an City.

When Ye Qing took Bai Chun down the city tower and walked on the street after the snow had just been cleared, the sound of horses' hooves sounded behind him.

Watching the dozen or so horses pass by, and then drive in the direction of the government office, Ye Qing's cheeks showed a slight smile, and without waiting for Bai Chun to speak, he said: "It seems that the Xia people should not be able to hold on, you can add some spies to the Yangzhou Chamber of Commerce." ”

"What if not?" Bai Chun asked rhetorically.

"What if not? It can't be that Li Heng threw away Guanshan in such a short period of time, right? Ye Qing said with a smile.

This is one of the few moments when he has completely relaxed since he came to this world, when he was in Lin'an, he had to worry about how Zhao Gou and other royal families would calculate and use themselves almost every day.

And even after being sent to Huainan East Road, Ye Qing also had an easy life, and he always needed to guard against the black hand that stretched out to him from the secret, and after being an official in the court for many years, the whole person was like a beast in the wilderness, and he needed to be vigilant all the time in order to survive.

And since the battle of Guanshan stopped in Jingzhao Mansion, with the arrival of Bai Chun, and the relationship between the forces of the Song Dynasty, Jin, Xia, Tatars and other forces has become clearer and clearer, Ye Qing can finally really relax, no longer like when he was in Jiangnan, even when he has nothing to do, he has to be vigilant and plan the affairs of the court at all times.

The oncoming Qingwang Zhao Kai and Chongguo Gong Zhao Shichun were obviously the first time after the snow, once again with excitement and novelty, enjoying the world after the snow stopped.

Seeing Ye Qing come with Bai Chun, as a royal family of the Southern Song Dynasty, the hedonism in the bloodline will naturally be revealed at the first moment, with novelty and excitement, inviting Ye Qing to his mansion today for a snow feast.

And Ye Qing also agreed to the two without hesitation, and there was more than a month left before the Yuan Ri, and now whether it is the people or the officials, after this heavy snowfall, they are almost in a state of having nothing to do.

Although compared to the people in the south of the Yangtze River, the people in the north who spend the winter will have a lot of things to do before the Yuan Day, but for Ye Qing, it is not his turn to worry about those things at this time.

The four of them walked along the cleaned streets, and Zhao Kai began to ask: "There are many famous families in Chang'an in the government office, and Lord Ye doesn't go to see it?" ”

"I guess Yu Yunwen is hiding, right?" Ye Qing smiled, in the past two days, in the distance at the entrance of his mansion, some people who were probing their brains could be seen from time to time, but these people did not dare to get too close, for fear of upsetting Ye Qing.

And the only two officials who could get in touch with them, the famous families of Chang'an, did not choose those few luxury restaurants in Chang'an when dealing with these famous families, but faced the heavy snow and wandered around the area where the poorest people lived.

And every time they see the people's houses with a similar temperature inside and outside the house, Liu Minxing and Liu Minxue will look up to the sky and sigh sadly: Lord Ye remembers these people who are struggling to survive the winter, but helplessly, now the court has given too little money to Lord Ye and Lord Yu......

So in the past two days, the famous families in Chang'an City, instead of seeing Yu Yunwen and Ye Qing, under the leadership of the two Liu brothers, have been like great benevolent people to help the poor people of Chang'an.

Aimin's reputation was earned by Ye Qing and Yu Yunwen, and the money and materials were paid by them, but after two days in a row, they still couldn't get in touch with the bigwigs in Chang'an City, which made some Chang'an families and wealthy families can't help but start to be resentful, but they don't dare to easily offend the two Liu brothers who thanked them for bleeding.

As soon as he stepped into King Qing's mansion, Mo Xiaobao chased after him from behind: "My lord, Lord Li's letter." ”

"Did you say anything?" Ye Qing asked with a smile.

"The last general hasn't had time to see it, so I'll send it to you first." Mo Xiaobao said with some gasp.

Ye Qing did not avoid the few people present, and opened Li Heng's letter in front of several people, the content was very simple, Hot Gongji came to Pingliang Town again, and then sent an envoy to Guanshan, hoping that before the first day, Lord Ye could talk to him, the location was determined by Ye Qing, Longcheng on the east side of Guanshan Mountain, and Pingliang Town on the west side of Guanshan Mountain.

Ye Qing finished reading the letter in front of King Qing, Chongguo Gong, Bai Chun and Mo Xiaobao, and then said with a smile: "What does King Qing think?" ”

"The matter...... It's still Lord Ye's idea to do this. Zhao Kai was slightly stunned, he didn't expect Ye Qing to ask for his opinion first.

"After we occupied Guanshan, the hot Gongji launched a fierce attack, trying to recapture Guanshan in a short time, but a series of defeats made their military morale begin to become more and more low, coupled with the defeat in the first battle of Guanshan. Now it seems that Hot Gongji can't withstand the pressure from their young emperor...... So do you plan to admit it, or do you have other plans? Ye Qing said analytically.

Zhao Shichun had completely transformed into a qualified businessman at this time, and the Song Dynasty had wanted to buy back the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun from the Liao people, so after listening to Ye Qing's words, he couldn't help but blurt out: "You don't want to buy back that Guanshan, right?" ”

Ye Qing, Bai Chun, and Mo Xiaobao looked at Zhao Shichun with some surprise, and Zhao Kai actually nodded in agreement after thinking about it for a while: "It's possible, since the hard one can't work, it's soft, if you stand in the position of the Xia people, it's not a solution." ”
