"What else do you have to say!" Ji Mi's roar scared several men enough.

Trembling and continuing to kowtow without speaking, Ji Mi asked them, "Why don't you look for something to do in the soup kitchen?" I see that you are not missing arms or legs, and if you have hands and feet, why do you eat and drink for nothing? Don't you feel panicked? ”

These people are usually lazy, how can they feel ashamed.

Ji Mi explained to the soup kitchen, from now on, she is not allowed to give relief to these men, and let them see clearly in the future, if they encounter such a lazy person again, they will be driven away directly, and they don't need to report to her.

During this period of time, there have been a lot fewer beggars in Beiyue, and Ji Mi tried her best to help them, but I don't know how this Beiyue capital is doing here, the sun is shining day by day, the land is dry and cracked, and many of the people who usually make a living by selling vegetables are idle at home and have nothing to do.

But I heard that there was a flood in that place in Qi County, is this God messed up, the sun is exposed, the rain is rainy, Zixun is very sad about this matter, and some people are stubborn and unwilling to move out of the original place where they lived, even if the house is washed away, they still have to stay there.

After returning to the mansion, Ji Mi wrote several notices and ordered them to be posted in the most eye-catching place in Beiyue.

The notice was written on it to ask these dignitaries and nobles to donate the surplus clothes and fabrics in their houses, preferably those cloth clothes worn by their subordinates, not brocade. If you don't have it, you can donate rice and vegetables, you can donate anything, and when the time comes, Ji Mi will let people sort it out and sort it out.

Ji Mi didn't make any promises in the notice, he just hoped that they, the pampered rich people, could show kindness, and according to the situation in Qi County, the imperial court would definitely let Chiyo Mu go in person, and now collect these things first, and when Chiyo Mu set off, he would go with him.

If all the expenses come out of the national treasury, whether it is post-disaster reconstruction or comfort for the victims, or material support, it is bound to be a large amount of money, so if something happens to the capital of Beiyue, the funds can't keep up...... The capital city must not be messed up.

The matter of the notice reached Bai Yanjun's ears, and even the emperor called on everyone to donate money and materials enthusiastically, where is there any reason to shirk, many officials took out their own private silver, and some of the mansions were really poor and simply asked the ladies and concubines to sell their jewelry for silver and donate it, as long as they can show their faces in front of Ji Mi, it is just some silver, what is it.

Some of them do business and promise to go to other countries to buy them in person as long as the divine envoy and Ji Mi are in need, but this is only a small-scale natural disaster after all, and their promise is not as real as silver in Ji Mi's opinion.

Seven days later.

As Ji Mi expected, the imperial court sent a team, including fifty men and women who were good at healing, ten men who were good at formations, thirty elites who were assassination, and ten doctors with superb medical skills, led by Chiyo Mu to Qi County.

Healing can restore physical strength and heal wounds, but it cannot cure diseases, so you must have a doctor with you.

The night before departure, Ji Mi checked the list, counted all the donated materials, loaded them into a carriage, and tomorrow as long as the three-headed carriage was pulled, he would soon be able to reach Bailiang City, where Qi County is located.

But Chiyo Mu didn't want her to go with her, "Mi'er is good to stay in the capital, although it is only a flood over there, it is also dangerous, and I will be distracted to take care of you if you go with you." ”

Why do you want me to go with me but be distracted and take care of me, I am not a child, Ji Mi protested silently, but did not explicitly resist Chiyo Mu.

Chiyo Mu was also curious, why was this girl so obedient today, he was not allowed to go, so he really obediently went back to the room to sleep, and if he didn't refute, he was still a little unaccustomed to it.

In the wee hours of the morning, the rooster had just crowed.

Ji Mi quietly got dressed and got up from the bed, and crept to the Negri in the parked carriage outside, "Hmph, if you don't let me go, I won't go, I want to go." ”

Because she was too sleepy, Ji Mi fell asleep in a daze, and I don't know how long it took for her to wake up leisurely and hear a voice talking in her head, it was a woman.

That's not right! How could there be a woman's voice in Zixun's carriage! Ji Mi decided not to go out yet, or listen to it.

"Why didn't the divine envoy bring Miss Mi out this time......" The woman's voice was like a yellow warbler, and it was very good, Ji Mi was looking forward to Chiyo Mu's answer, but after a while, she didn't hear anyone speak.

The woman spoke again, "Didn't you quarrel with Miss Mi...... In the past, where the divine envoy was, Miss Mi would also be there. ”

Ji Mi was a little skeptical that her ears had heard it wrong, but how could she think that the tone of this woman when she said this was obviously different from just now, slightly raised, as if it was ...... I'm looking forward to her arguing with Chiyomu.

"Mi'er is very active, for fear that she will encounter something unexpected when she goes, so she simply won't let her go with her." After saying that, Chiyo Mu seemed to be very disgusted with the people in the car, closed her eyes and pretended to be asleep, and didn't say anything anymore.

Sitting in the carriage with him were several leaders with the team, not counting Chiyo Mu, two men and two women, and the woman who spoke was leading the healing team.

I didn't eat in the morning, Ji Mi's stomach was already rumbling with hunger, and when I didn't pay attention, it screamed again...... And the voice...... It's so big, I don't know if anyone outside heard it.

The answer is, I must have heard it, but they all thought that they were hallucinating and didn't pay much attention, and everyone didn't speak, only Chiyo Mu's expression changed slightly, and he frowned, he wouldn't ...... It's really as he thought, he wanted to say goodbye to Mi'er this morning, but the girl in Chang'an said that she hadn't woken up yet, so in order not to wake Mi'er, she turned around and left.

"Come out." The man sitting in the middle suddenly spoke, confusing everyone and wondering who the divine envoy was calling out.

Of course Ji Mi knew that she was calling herself...... was actually discovered by him before she arrived, will he put her down halfway and ask someone to escort her back......

While she was struggling, Chiyomu said "come out" again. Ji Mi had no choice but to put her hand on the wooden board on her head, and the leader of the healing team felt that something was about to emerge from under her buttocks, so she quickly pulled the leader of the assassination team next to her to get up and get out of the way.

I saw a fluffy little head slowly coming out of it, Ji Mi didn't know how to comb those bells and whistles, she combed it all when Chang'an was there, she didn't tell anyone about today's plan, she was afraid of leaking out, so she only combed a simple ponytail, but I didn't expect that the sleeping position was too ugly, and the hair was scattered.

Looking at Ji Mi, Chiyo Mu didn't know whether to cry or laugh for a while, took her hand and sat beside her, "Didn't you come?" Why are you still here? It's nonsense! ”

Facing the little girl in front of him, he was also rare and serious, but Ji Mi buried her head and didn't speak, and suddenly became aggrieved, "I'm not worried about you yet!" I heard that the river over there is rising and flooding the house, in case you have three long and two short, then what should I do! You're still murdering me! ”

actually murdered her, Ji Mi cried regardless of the eyes of others, and a drop of tears fell on Chiyo Mu's hand, which also broke his heart, and now it is the main thing to find a way to coax her first, "Okay, okay, I'm also worried about Mi'er, it seems that the two of us are worried about each other, and we really have a heart." ”

Chiyo Mu gently patted Ji Mi's back, and comforted her in a gentle voice, "Okay, okay, don't cry, Mi'er is hungry, there are a lot of delicious foods in my space, they were all prepared for me by Mi'er yesterday, do you want to eat some?" ”

As soon as it came to eating, Ji Mi immediately stopped her tears, but she still couldn't stop sobbing, her little appearance was so cute that she was so cute, and it warmed Chiyomu's heart.

The delicious pastry was placed in front of Ji Mi, and the girl grabbed one in one hand and ate it up, not caring at all about the surprised eyes of the four people around her.

Chiyo Mu took out a wooden comb and a hairpin from the space, and gently combed Ji Mi's hair, "Why is Mi'er's hair messy, did it come out without combing?" ”

"Not really! I combed it, but I slept out of place! As she spoke, Ji Mi still had two pieces of pastry stuffed in her mouth, and her bulging cheeks looked like a squirrel hiding food.

Oh~ It turned out that she was asleep, Chiyo Mu raised her eyebrows and looked at Ji Mi and smiled, didn't say much, and continued to help her comb her hair. Chiyo Mu, a big man who has been single for so many years, is already very interested in helping her comb her hair, and Ji Mi doesn't care about his craftsmanship.

But after combing it, when Chiyo Mu took out the mirror from the space to show her, it was surprisingly good-looking, a white jade hairpin was simple and fresh, and Ji Mi was very fond of it.

"Have you eaten enough?"

"Hmm~" Full and full~ I'm a little sleepy.

Ji Mi belongs to that kind of person, she can't hear any sound when she sleeps, so she didn't sleep last night, and she only slept in the carriage for a short time.

Seeing her half-eyed and half-squinted appearance, Chiyo Mu understood, put the girl's head on her shoulder, put her hand around her shoulder and said, "Then go to sleep, I'll call you when it's time." ”

Well...... Then let's sleep for a while, even if it is sleepy, Ji Mi still doesn't forget to go to Qi County, "Don't ...... Don't send me... Go back ......" and fell asleep.

Ay. Chiyomu sighed, found a small blanket and put it on Ji Mi, "Okay, don't send Mi'er back." ”

It was also the first time that the people in the carriage had seen a compromise messenger, let alone such a gentle, combing the hair of a beloved woman. Chiyo Mu gave Ji Mi Shunshun back from time to time, what did this girl dream about, why did she sleep so unsteadily.

When Ji Mi was about to arrive, she had already woken up, yawning and stretching her waist regardless of the image, and her misty eyes were covered with a layer of mist because of the yawning, which was full of color, "Where are you~"

Ji Mi's whole person was already hanging on Chiyo Mu's body, Chiyo Mu kissed Ji Mi's forehead with a smile and said, "It's almost there, let's wash my face with some water in a while, little flower cat." "I'm still drooling when I sleep, I don't know if I've dreamed of delicious food.

"You wash me~" As soon as she woke up, she was coquettish, just like in the house, Ji Mi didn't mind being seen by others her and Chiyo Mu's affection, Chiyo Mu didn't mind even more, I wish everyone knew that he had a cute and beautiful baby.

"Okay, I can't help it." Habitually pinching Ji Mi's face.

It was noon when he arrived at Bailiang City, and when the three-headed horse landed outside the city, Ji Mi saw him greet him outside the city gate, "Lord Divine Envoy." ”

"Well, arrange a place for these people first, and if there is no place to live, the rest of them will take them to stay in the guest house, and the account will be recorded on the head of this seat. You take this seat to the yamen of the office to have a look, as well as the tax books and large and small case records of the past few years. ”

Ji Mi Taishou is known, where does the god make the adult's female dependent, Wang Taishou, dare to slack off, arrange Ji Mi to live in his own mansion, and instruct his subordinates to be good and not to be lazy.

Many places in Bailiang City have also been made miserable by the heavy rainstorm, but it has not yet reached the point of Qi County, but many people have been displaced, and they can only live in a relatively simple place arranged by Wang Taishou, but they can shelter from the wind and rain.

After flipping through a few pages, Chiyo Mu didn't raise his eyes and said, "This place has a lot of taxes, how can there be no silver to rebuild homes for the victims?" ”

Wang Taishou rubbed his hands together and hesitated and said, "Most of the previous tax money has been handed over to the state treasury, and only a small part is left for the construction of towns. Some time ago, the sun was exposed to the sun, the crops could not survive, and finally looked forward to a rain, but it kept falling for a long time, the people had no income, let alone paying taxes, in the face of natural disasters, everyone's business was not easy to do, and the rest of the silver was bought to buy rice and vegetables to help the victims, and there was really no excess...... I had no choice but to ask the court for help. ”

Chiyo Mu thought that this Taishou was telling the truth, every income and expenditure in the account book was recorded in detail, and if he asked Taishou, what he said and the date could match.

"Tomorrow we'll go to a few of the hardest-hit places and then we'll make a decision. By the way, the carriages outside were loaded with donations from the officials and people of Beiyue to the affected people, and Wang Taishou watched and distributed them to the victims. Closing the tax ledger, Chiyomu rubbed her temples tiredly.

There is no problem with Taishou here, but Chiyomu suspects that there may be some problems with the magistrate under Taishou, so he will go to Qi County to inquire about the reputation of Niu Zhi County after a while, and then go with Taishou tomorrow.

After having lunch with Ji Mi, Chiyo Mu asked her to walk around Bailiang City by herself, and listened to the people's evaluation of this Taishou, and he set off to Qi County alone.

He is dressed very low-key, dressed as an ordinary scholar, trying to blend in with the surrounding environment, but his appearance is too good, and there are still many people looking sideways on the road.

"Kind son, give me something to eat, my child hasn't eaten properly for a few days, she's only three years old......" A woman in linen clothes suddenly knelt down in front of Chiyo Mu while holding a little girl, and looked carefully, the little girl was so thin that she was not human, her face was very poor, and her lips were white, as if she had been hungry for a long time and sick for a long time.

It's just that the little girl's facial features are very delicate, even if her face is sick, but it is also cute, Chiyo Mu took out a few rice crackers from the space, and planned to give the woman a few more taels of silver, but the woman only thanked her subordinates for the rice crackers, and did not ask for silver, "Kind son, in our place, the money is no longer worth it, and no matter how much silver you have, you can't buy anything to eat!" ”

Chiyo Mu knows that the harvest has not been good in recent years, but it is not like this, holding the little girl, and following the woman to the place where they settled, it is a small Zhuangzi, although it is not luxurious, but it is enough to shelter from the wind and rain, it seems that this woman can be regarded as self-sufficient, but why did it fall to this point, Chiyo Mu does not understand.

"Childe, don't you know, in the past few years, the weather has become hotter and hotter, and my man and I originally planted vegetables and rice to sell, but God deliberately couldn't get along with our Qi County, the harvest was getting worse and worse year by year, and the already small grain was robbed by Niuzhi County. Even my child and her father were beaten to death when they resisted......" Speaking of the sad part, the woman couldn't help crying, and the little girl saw her mother crying, and handed the rice cake in her hand to the woman, "Mother eat...... Don't cry ......"

And this kind of thing?! Chiyo Mu clenched the folding fan in her hand and held back the anger in her heart, "Sister-in-law Xia, you can make it clearer, how did this Zhixian rob your grain and how did he kill your husband?" ”

Seeing that Chiyo Mu was really a good person, the woman told him everything she knew, "We, too, rent the landlord's land to farm, and we have to pay the landlord the money for renting the land every year. But after the debt was lowered, he came to rob again, and robbed all the only rations left in the house, we were not drowned in the water, but were starved to death, and it was better when there were men for a few miles, even if they did not farm, they could go to the landlord's house to work, but now that my man is dead, I am dragging a child who can not live alone, who would want a woman like me, I can only go to the street to beg, today is also my luck, I can meet such a kind son as you. ”

She was telling the truth, along the way, Chiyomu saw that there were a lot of people who wanted food and not silver, but she didn't expect that no matter how honest and honest the officials above were, they still couldn't resist the small actions of the people below.

And the people can't report to the higher levels, which also makes the lives of these ordinary people more difficult.

"As far as I know, tomorrow there will be officials from the imperial court who will come to Qi County, and bear with it, when the officials from the imperial court come, you can talk to him about anything."

Unexpectedly, the woman smiled and waved her hand, "I don't beg for anything anymore, these corrupt officials are in a nest of snakes and rats, and the officials protect each other, hey." ”

Leaving Zhuangzi, Chiyo Mu came to the county government again, but it was a county office, but it was a little more gorgeous than the prefect of Taishou, I really don't know how big the county is, and who is behind him.

"Who are you?! It's okay, don't block the door of the county office! Didn't you see our county master coming?! "County master? Sorry, he really didn't see it.

Chiyo Mu stood aside and waited for the magistrate to get off the sedan chair, but he didn't expect to be with a woman next to him, the magistrate walked into the county government with one hand around the woman's waist, and after the people had disappeared, Chiyo Mu knocked out the guard outside the door and went in alone.

It's just that along the way, the two people who went out of the door and guarded, and the other officials couldn't see the shadows, and then listening to the obscene voices coming from the lobby, Chiyomu knew why there was no one here.
