Fu Bo persuaded without giving up: "However, Your Highness, if you privately appease the displaced people without the permission of the Holy Lord, are you not afraid that someone will come to visit you in front of the Holy Lord?" ”

Zhu Cihong's face turned cold after hearing this, and he said lightly: "This palace is still afraid that they won't participate!" Even if this matter is in front of his father, the palace is reasonable. All the households are busy with party fighting, no one cares about these homeless people, if this palace doesn't care, won't these people starve to death? Yesterday, those hungry people were even hungry to the point of eating people, and this palace was deeply touched when they saw it, even if they participated in front of their father, this palace did not regret it. ”

After hearing this, Fu Bo couldn't help but feel ashamed of the officials in the court, a four-year-old child can think about the country and the people, and those officials are all busy with party struggles, ignoring the hungry and cold people.

Then Zhu Cihong's tone changed, and he said helplessly: "It's just that the palace is young and its strength is limited, so it does some soup kitchen, and there is no way to solve the fundamental problems for those displaced people." ”

After hearing this, Fu Bo hurriedly comforted: "Your Highness don't be discouraged, it's good that you can do this, if it weren't for you, I'm afraid these homeless people would have starved to death." The attack of the displaced people this time was due to the troubles of the people in Linhai, and the people could not survive, so they had no choice but to flee all the way to Beijing. If we want to solve the problem fundamentally, I am afraid that we have to start with the Japanese invaders. It's just that with our strength now, fighting the Japanese is tantamount to hitting a stone with an egg. ”

Zhu Cihong nodded approvingly and said, "Yes, this palace also understands this." At present, the Flying Tigers have too few personnel, their training is not yet mature, and their weapons and equipment have not been updated. The expansion of the palace has long been thought about, but now whether it is the weapons and equipment research and development of the Ordnance Bureau, or the training of the Flying Tigers, it is a time when money is used, and the palace has no extra silver to expand at this time. ”

"Why don't you cut down on the Flying Tigers' food? If you cut it down, you should be able to raise some more elites. ”

After hearing this, Zhu Cihong hurriedly refused: "This matter must not be done, the consumption of the Flying Tigers' daily training is too great now, and the current food is not available, and if it is cut again, I am afraid that it will be down in a few days." Besides, if the food is reduced, how many more people can be recruited? Now the training is all elites, and they are still counting on them to train a new batch of people in the future, and I will tell my father when I go back and see how my father arranges it! This palace is now more than enough and not enough. ”

"There are too many displaced people this time, if there are hundreds of people, we may still be able to resettle them, but there are more than 1,000 people outside the city, and the total number of displaced people in other places is probably tens of thousands. All young adults are a little better, you can find some hard work to make ends meet. It's just that those old and weak women and children are miserable, and I am afraid that no one wants them to work, let alone settle down. ”

"Yes, if the number of people is small, it happens that Liumeng has a lot of land, so you can send them to grow high-yield food, although they can't be rich and expensive, but they can also ensure that they don't have to worry about food and clothing. It's just that there are too many of these displaced people, and even if they divide it, the land of the Liu League will not be enough. ”

"In the final analysis, we have to solve the problem fundamentally, and the only way to do this is to drive the Japanese out and let these displaced people return to their homes. At present, the only thing we can do is to ensure that these displaced people do not starve to death, fortunately, the weather is gradually getting warmer, otherwise in the harsh winter, I am afraid that all these displaced people will freeze to death. ”

"In this way, go back and ask Qi Long to count the number of displaced people, send some warm clothes, or some firewood for the displaced people to make a fire to keep warm. Although people can't freeze to death in this weather, if people have another headache and brain fever, their bodies can't stand the toss. ”

After hearing this, Fu Bo said with a look of embarrassment: "Your Highness, this firewood is a little easier to handle, and let the Flying Tigers find a mountain forest to solve it." However, this kind of warm clothing is only a large expense, so it is said that the cheapest warm clothes cost three dollars of silver, and the clothes of tens of thousands of people are only afraid of three thousand taels of silver. ”

After hearing this, Zhu Cihong said firmly: "Don't say three thousand taels of silver, even if it is thirty thousand taels of silver, we can get it." They are all the people of my Ming Dynasty, and this palace really can't bear to see them suffering and cold, only if you help them when they are in danger, they will help us when we are in danger. ”

After hearing this, Fu Bo said: "The old slave sent a message to Liu Meng, asking Liu Meng to prepare tens of thousands of sets of warm clothes, and send them to the displaced people outside the city in a few days." ”

Zhu Cihong nodded after listening, then stretched his waist and said: "After tossing for a long time, the palace is also tired, so the palace will find a place to rest for a while." After a while, when Qi Long came, he ordered him to come to see the palace, and the palace wanted to understand the situation of the displaced people outside the city. ”

"The old slave retired first, His Royal Highness the Prince, you are resting, and when Qi Long comes, the old slave will notify him to come to see you as soon as possible." With that, Fauber withdrew. Zhu Cihong saw that Fu Bo had retreated, so he went into the inner room to rest.

By the time Zhu Cihong woke up, it was already evening. Zhu Cihong saw that it was getting late, and immediately shouted: "Someone! ”

Xia Nuan heard Zhu Cihong shouting, hurriedly pushed open the door and walked in, knelt on the ground and said, "What does His Royal Highness the Crown Prince command?" ”

Zhu Cihong asked, "What time is it, is Qi Long back?" ”

Xia Nuan hurriedly replied: "Back to His Royal Highness the Prince, it's two o'clock in the unitary time, Captain Qi has just come back, Captain Qi said that he was covered in stinky sweat, and he was afraid of colliding with His Highness, so he went back to take a shower first, changed his clothes and came to see His Highness." ”

Zhu Cihong couldn't help but shake his head after hearing this, and said helplessly: "This Qi Long... Forget it, I'll wait a little longer! ”

After waiting for about a quarter of an hour, Qi Long hurriedly came over after changing his clothes.

When Qi Long saw Zhu Cihong, he hurriedly knelt down and saluted: "See His Royal Highness the Prince!" ”

Zhu Cihong waved his hand, signaled Qi Long to get up quickly, and said, "Okay, hurry up!" What happened to the outcasts outside the city! ”

As soon as the words fell, Qi Long stood up, took out an account book from his arms, and said: "Back to His Royal Highness the Prince, today's soup kitchens will register all the hungry people, one is to count how many people there are, and the other is to distribute the soup tomorrow according to the population." Each person can only receive it twice a day, so there are all the numbers of porridge that are distributed in total, but a very small number of people have to receive it after receiving it twice, because there are many people who cannot find out one by one, so they need to prepare a little more every day. ”

Zhu Cihong thought for a while and said: "In this way, everyone receives a small ticket when giving porridge, and takes the porridge with the bill, as long as they receive the porridge, the receipt will be withdrawn, so that it can effectively avoid some people from receiving it repeatedly, but in this case, you have to work hard, after all, there are so many hungry people, to let them line up one by one to receive the receipt, you not only have to issue the receipt, but also to prevent some people from messing around." ”

After hearing this, Qi Long hurriedly patted his chest and promised: "Your Highness, this method is very good, so that you can effectively prevent some people from fishing in troubled waters." ”

Zhu Cihong nodded after hearing this and said: "Tomorrow, Liu Meng will give you a batch of cold-proof clothes, and you will hand over the cold-proof clothes to those homeless people outside the city to prevent them from freezing and getting sick." In addition, tomorrow your Flying Tigers will work hard, go up the mountain to chop some firewood for those homeless people, and let them make a fire to drive away the cold. ”

After hearing this, Qi Long hurriedly clenched his fists and said, "Yes, the minister will go down and make arrangements!" The account books will be placed here first, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is invited to have a free look. After saying that, he put the account book on the table, and retreated in a hurry.
