Chapter 40: Mobilizing Manpower

The news of the disaster relief outside the city soon spread, and the refugees around gathered towards Zhu Cihong. From a hundred or so people at the beginning, thousands of people gradually gathered here.

The cart of dry food was quickly distributed, and some of those who did not receive it began to become agitated. Seeing this, Liu Wu hurriedly stood up and pulled out the sword at his waist, and shouted loudly: "Don't mess with anyone, the dry food will be there in a while, if anyone dares to take the lead in making trouble, there will be no forgiveness!" ”

Looking at the chilling sword in Liu Wu's hand, those who planned to take the opportunity to make trouble so as to fish in troubled waters dispelled their thoughts. Wait a while, there will be something to eat, in case of trouble and being killed, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will die in vain.

Zhu Cihong hurriedly instructed Xia Nuan to take people to the city to buy another cart of dry food, and he followed Liu Wu here to comfort the victims.

After waiting for half an hour, Xia Nuan and his people came with a carriage, which was full of dry food. When everyone saw the cart full of dry food, they stared straight at Xia Nuan with their eyes, if it weren't for Liu Wu staring at the side, I'm afraid they would have swarmed up and looted the dry food on the car.

When Liu Wu saw that the dry food was coming, he hurriedly shouted loudly: "All of them are lined up, don't rob them indiscriminately, don't come to receive the dry food again, once you find it, report it directly to the official and arrest him, let him taste the taste of prison." ”

Those who had already received dry food, and who planned to fish in troubled waters to receive another one, dispelled their thoughts. It's not that there is nothing in the future, if you get it again, it's okay if you don't find it, but once you are found and caught in prison, you will lose a lot.

Those who did not receive dry food at the scene consciously lined up and stepped forward to receive dry food one by one. Order is like that, if everyone follows it, even if someone wants to disobey it, then it's embarrassing. On the other hand, as long as one person does not obey the order and is not punished, then many people will not obey the order, after all, the law does not hold the people accountable.

In addition, Liu Wu was staring at the side, the sword on his waist exuded a faint chill, and the victims on the side did not dare to act rashly, for fear of accidentally offending this killing god, and the sword clicked itself.

Gradually, there were fewer and fewer people in line, and when the dry food was distributed, Xia Nuan's tired hands couldn't be raised.

Zhu Cihong and others saw every word and deed, the victims all saw it, and after the dry food was distributed, the victims spontaneously knelt down and said with gratitude: "Thank you, Your Royal Highness the Prince, thank you for all the living Bodhisattvas!" ”

Zhu Cihong saw that the victims were no longer hungry, and a smile appeared on his face. yes, isn't that what he's aiming for? May the people of the world no longer suffer from hunger, and may the people of the world no longer suffer from war.

Zhu Cihong hurriedly stood up and said with a smile: "Everyone get up quickly!" Tomorrow, the palace will also give porridge here, everyone will consciously line up at that time, don't mess with everyone's share. ”

Everyone was grateful to Dade again, and then Zhu Cihong went to Zhuangshang to inspect the Flying Tigers.

Fubo waited anxiously in the village, like an ant on a hot pot, anxious to turn around. Usually His Royal Highness the Crown Prince should have come over at this time, but now it is two hours late, and the people have not yet arrived, and the flying pigeon passed a book to Chunxiang in the palace, but Chunxiang said that His Royal Highness left early in the morning. Until now, how can I not be in a hurry, in case something happens, what face will I have to see the queen.

Just when Fu Bo was in a hurry, Zhu Cihong's carriage was late. When Fu Bo saw Zhu Cihong's carriage from afar, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and then hurriedly greeted him.

Zhu Cihong saw that Fu Bo's face was flushed, and he couldn't help asking, "What's wrong with Fu Bo?" Something happened to make you rush like this! ”

After hearing this, Fu Bo patted his chest and said: "Your Royal Highness the Prince, where have you been today, I haven't seen you for two hours, you don't know what the old slave is in a hurry, if you don't show up again, the old slave will have to inform Captain Qi and mobilize the entire Flying Tigers team to look for you." ”

After hearing this, Zhu Cihong hurriedly explained: "A large number of refugees poured in outside the city, and the palace couldn't bear it for a while, so he ordered his subordinates to buy food and help the victims. So the delay made Fauber worried, and Hongu apologized. ”

After hearing this, Fu Bo hurriedly knelt on the ground and said in horror: "Your Highness, you can torture the old slave by saying this. However, you have indeed handled today's affairs inappropriately. If you have something to delay, please delay on the road, so you have to inform the old slave, otherwise you will not come again for a while, and the old slave will let the Flying Tigers go to look for it, and it will be bad to cause unnecessary trouble at that time. ”

Zhu Cihong knew that it was better for Fu Bo to say this, so he hurriedly smiled and said: "Okay, this palace knows, if something is delayed, this palace will definitely send someone to inform you, and it will save you from being afraid, get up quickly!" ”

After speaking, Fu Bo slowly stood up and welcomed Zhu Cihong into the village.

Zhu Cihong beckoned Qi Long over and said, "Qi Long, tomorrow, you will select a group of people and follow the palace to the outside of the city to appease the homeless." ”

After hearing this, Qi Long hugged his fists and said, "Yes, I don't know how many people His Royal Highness the Crown Prince needs?" It's good to arrange it! ”

Zhu Cihong thought for a while after listening and said, "Look at the arrangement!" It's hard to do things when there are more people, and you can't do things when there are fewer people,"

Fu Bo asked at this time: "Your Royal Highness the Prince, the old slave knows that you care about the common people in the world, and you can't bear to see those hungry people suffering from hunger. The old slave took the liberty of asking, how do you plan to appease those displaced people? If you give porridge every day, if it is just a hungry person outside the city, each person can give porridge twice a day, and their lives can be saved. However, the old slave was afraid that the news of the soup soup outside the city would spread, and not only all the hungry people around him would come to ask for porridge. Although Liu Meng still has some money, he can't afford to support such a large number of hungry people. ”

Zhu Cihong said anxiously: "Then you can't ignore them, they are all the people of my Ming Dynasty, and this palace really can't bear to see them starving." Did you know Fuber? Today, those hungry people are even going to eat people, they have already reached that point, how can this palace sit idly by! ”

Fu Bo didn't expect things to be so serious, and then said: "Your Royal Highness the Prince, the news of the opening of the porridge field tomorrow is estimated to be known to everyone within a radius of ten miles at this time. According to the old slave, tomorrow we should send more people to open a few more porridge points, otherwise there will be just one porridge point, and the hungry people will be so hungry that they can't stand it, I am afraid that it will cause riots. In addition, additional manpower had to be dispatched to maintain law and order at the scene. ”

Zhu Cihong nodded after hearing this, and said: "These palaces also know, so this palace ordered Qi Long to arrange people to help the victims with the palace tomorrow." ”

After hearing this, Fu Bo couldn't help but praise: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is still thoughtful. ”

While everyone was talking, Liu Wei led people to pull dozens of carts of grain.
