In the past few days, Wang Yuan has been very busy. It is not difficult to settle Xuanzong and his party, and the several princes and a bunch of palace maids and officials accompanying Xuanzong only need to throw them into the scattered flower building, allocate them money and food, and they can take care of everything by themselves. Serving the emperor's affairs, those people are familiar with the road. But what happened next broke Wang Yuan's heart.

On the way to Shu with the army, Xuanzong issued an edict to the world, announcing that he would enter Shu. At this edict, those scattered officials who had lost the news of the emperor and were scattered all over the country and were uneasy, like weaned children who had found their mothers again, flocked to Chengdu. Three days after Xuanzong arrived in Chengdu, these people began to flow in an endless stream, filling the avenue into the city.

Among them are officials in the court, veteran nobles and ministers, and there are also escaped Praetorian Guards and petty officials at all levels in the capital. Wherever Your Majesty is, these people will follow. All of a sudden, the city of Chengdu was bustling. But for Wang Yuan, the arrival of these people meant more business. Xuanzong only met and appeased them in batches in the Sanhua Building, and the rest of the settlement could only be arranged by Wang Yuan. It's just that these people are all pampered, and they have to say strange things if they are a little unsatisfactory, which makes Wang Yuan full of anger. Several officials under Wang Yuan, who arranged their residence with Wang Yuan, were very angry, these people from the capital were already lost dogs, and when they came to Chengdu, they still looked down on Jiannan officials in their low words, and said that they were not coming.

Fortunately, Wang Yuan is now in a high position, and these people don't dare to make a mistake, just say a few strange words, and don't dare to really make a fuss. I can settle down gradually.

However, Wang Yuan really didn't want to deal with these people anymore, and he once again mentioned to Xuanzong that he would send people to settle these officials and nobles who followed. So a problem that must be solved was put on the table, that is, to rebuild the order of the court, first of all, it was necessary to pay homage to the prime minister again, and then to make the government run normally, so that Wang Yuan could get rid of this busy trivial matter.

In terms of the selection of Xiangguo, Xuanzong selected a few among the officials who followed, and specially asked Wang Yuan to discuss who was more suitable. Of course, Wang Yuan would not make up his mind, but suggested that the officials above the squire should be convened to discuss the election, and the elected officials would be decided by Xuanzong. Xuanzong accepted Wang Yuan's proposal, so he convened officials for a selection, and finally two people surfaced, one named Wei Jiansu and the other named Fang Xuan.

Although Wei Jiansu Wang Yuan was not very familiar with him, he only knew that he was a servant of the Ministry of Officials before, and he presided over the examination. But Wang Yuan did some investigation in private, this person has a good reputation, he is fair and impartial in presiding over the election, and he is also very modest. At this time, the chaotic situation needs such a person to preside, who can not only act fairly, but also be humble and convincing to the public, should be a good candidate. The reputation of the person named Fang Xuan is not bad, although he was a servant of the household department in the imperial history before, but this person is a little timid. It is said that he once openly disobeyed the order of the imperial court to open a warehouse to release grain to help the people, and was almost beheaded by Li Linfu because of this.

Although the candidate of Xiangguo is extremely important and needs to be carefully considered, the situation can no longer be delayed, so Xuanzong made a decision, Bai Wei Jiansu was the secretary of the military department, and he was the bachelor of the Tang Dynasty under the Pingzhangshi and Jixian Academy. Fang Xuan is the secretary of the Ministry of Shangshu, Tongping Zhangshi, plus the golden purple Guanglu doctor, worship as the right Xiangguo. In fact, according to Wang Yuan's thoughts, regardless of qualifications and ability, it seems that Wei Jiansu should be more suitable for the position of Xiangguo, but for some reason, Xuanzong dropped the positions of the two candidates, although Wang Yuan was a little surprised, but he didn't really want to care about it.

Once the left and right ministers were appointed, the DPRK and the central government suddenly had a skeleton, so the affairs of the six departments of the political affairs hall could be carried out, and Wang Yuan could finally retreat, he had more difficult things to deal with, and he really didn't have time to spend on these affairs.

An extremely important thing is that in addition to the arrival of officials and nobles in Shu, a large number of refugees of more than one million people also arrived in Longyou and Jiannan one after another. For Wang Yuan, this is the real problem. The influx of so many refugees is no small matter, and if these hungry and cold people are not dealt with well, it will cause a catastrophe. If a person is very hungry and cold, and has no way to live, he can do anything. These refugees are like locusts in transit, looting everywhere they go, sweeping away the bark and grass roots. Therefore, if this million refugee influx is not handled well, it will be a disaster.

Wang Yuan convened his subordinates to discuss countermeasures, and the problems were concentrated on several points, one is the relief of refugees, millions of refugees are almost nothing, and food, drink and clothing will be a big problem. Although Wang Yuan's Chengdu Mansion had a large amount of food and materials hoarded in dozens of large granaries, it was impossible for Wang Yuan to consume all these materials. In addition to relief, these refugees also need to have a livelihood.

After thinking about it, Wang Yuan and the others couldn't think of a good way for a while, so they could only open a position to help them for the time being, stabilize their hearts first, and then think of a way slowly. Wang Yuan thought that as long as they survived this winter, they might be encouraged to cultivate wasteland and become self-sufficient, but at least they would have to spend a lot of supplies in the past few months. Fortunately, the reserves are sufficient, and there are enough food and a large amount of supplies to be eaten for a year in the twenty super material warehouses.

The second problem is the problem of resettlement, these people are refugees, after coming to Shu and Longyou, they can't rely on relief completely, they must have a source of livelihood. Once you are idle, there will be trouble. The solution that Wang Yuan could think of was to recruit a large number of soldiers from among the refugees when the army was about to be greatly expanded, and to stabilize 100,000 families by recruiting 100,000 soldiers. Of course, this is not a long-term solution, after all, the imperial court has nothing now, and all these soldiers' salaries, money and food can only be supplied by themselves. But at present, this is a way to solve the problem of the supply of soldiers and allow the people to be resettled.

The third issue was the issue of public security, and it was reported that the tide of refugees was coming to Chengdu, and in their opinion, the emperor should go wherever he was in order to feel at ease. But Wang Yuan couldn't let them do that. Chengdu is now the same status as the capital, and the influx of these refugees will bring a lot of security problems, and I am afraid that it will be a mess before the resettlement is completed. The solution to this problem is forced diversion. Wang Yuan ordered state and county officials and state and county garrisons to set up checkpoints on the mainland to intercept the refugees who had come in droves, and to bring them back to the prefectures for resettlement in their families. In this way, things will be much easier and easier.

In addition, there are all kinds of problems that need to be solved, and Wang Yuan is very sad and heartbroken about this.

In order to be busy with these things, Wang Yuan has to go out early in the morning every day, and can only return to the house in the middle of the night. In just a few days, Wang Yuan has obviously lost a lot of weight, which makes Wang Yuan's wives and concubines who only met in the middle of the night distressed. But they actually didn't have much to do, the only thing they could do was to wait until Wang Yuan returned home in the middle of the night, talk to him a few words, massage his tired body, or make some supplements for him to replenish his body. However, Wang Yuan often fell asleep tired when he was talking or taking a bath, leaving his wives and concubines speechless and distressed. Each sighed.

"If you are so tired, how can your body eat? I hope that Your Majesty will leave Chengdu as soon as possible, and come here to make Erlang tired like this, and catch him in a hurry every day. ”

Although Li Xin'er's words are a bit rebellious, they represent the voice of the Wang family's wives and concubines. In their eyes, Wang Yuan is much more important than His Majesty who fled to Chengdu and brought many troubles. Especially when they knew that His Majesty had given the concubine to death in order to protect themselves, they had no good impression of this negative Majesty.

But fortunately, after the appointment of the left and right ministers, the various departments of the imperial court also began to function again. After the plan to resettle the refugees was also implemented, Wang Yuan was finally able to catch his breath. When chaos gradually turns into order, when everything has rules to follow, things will be much easier. Although Wang Yuan is still not idle, after all, as the master of Jiannan Longyoudao, many things need to be coordinated and involved, but compared to a few days ago, it is much easier.

At the end of February, Wang Yuan was finally able to sneak out of his free time to meet some people he had long wanted to meet. The first person to visit is Gao Xianzhi. Gao Xianzhi has been in Chengdu for more than half a month, but Wang Yuan and Gao Xianzhi have only met in a hurry, and they don't have time to talk deeply. A few days ago, Xuanzong summoned Gao Xianzhi and tried his best to comfort Gao Xianzhi, hoping that Gao Xianzhi could return to the mountain to lead the army, but Gao Xianzhi refused on the grounds that he was unwell. Wang Yuan felt that he needed to have a good talk with Gao Xianzhi, and he needed to persuade Gao Xianzhi to come out of the mountain to help him. In addition, you should also visit Gao Xianzhi, otherwise it will be too rude.

After Gao Xianzhi came to Chengdu, Gao Moyan bought a big mansion in a secluded place in the west of the city with the help of Huang San, and settled her brother's family of dozens of people. Gao Moyan also moved to live with his brother's family because he did not marry Wang Yuan, although he came a few times, he and Wang Yuan did not see her once, and Wang Yuan also wanted to see her.

In a secluded alley in the west of the city called Luoguxiang, Gao Xianzhi's new home settled here. When Wang Yuan came here on horseback with a few relatives, Gao Xianzhi was already waiting in front of the door. Gao Moyan also stood on the threshold with her skirt and looked at the mouth of the alley, until she saw Wang Yuan riding a horse, and the long-legged girl finally stretched her eyebrows and waved her hand happily.
