Chapter 147: Disaster Relief (2)

In the canopy of the cold night, half a golden moon hung obliquely, and a few sparse stars were quietly fixed in the night.

In the dark night, the entire land of Jiangnan was shrouded in the night, and at a glance it was full of broken arms Hengyu, every place exuded desolation, and even the trees were listlessly erected in the land.

However, a mansion in the town is completely different at this time, the mansion is indeed bustling with activity, and the courtyard is even brightly lit.

In this small mansion, local officials from Jiangnan gathered, and the table was full of fragrant food.

The singers and dancers performed on the small stage in the courtyard.

It is in response to Du Mu's poem: "The merchant girl does not know the hatred of the country, and she still sings the flowers in the backyard across the river.

After three rounds of wine, Li Jingzhi, the assassin of Jiangnan, raised the wine in the cup and said with a smile: "Ladies and gentlemen, the fourth master has a letter, let us stand still first, after tonight, the old man is afraid that he will be seriously ill, and he will not be able to accompany you to the disaster relief site tomorrow." ”

"My lord, what shall we do?" Liu Jinlong hurriedly asked.

"You'll have to figure it out for yourselves." Li Jingzi said meaningfully.

"We are all the people of the fourth master, what is Lord Qincha, can it be that his little founding uncle can still ride on the head of the fourth master and." Li Duyun stood beside Li Jingzhi and replied.

"Master Li, you have to be careful when you speak, disaster comes from the mouth, but don't forget, Chen Yi is not the only one who is on the mission this time, don't forget that there is also the prince."

"My lord, what I said is that the lower officials will definitely take care of their mouths." Li Muyun replied with his head down.

The next day, in the morning.

In the bustling streets of the past, there were no crowds coming and going, only sparse and scattered pedestrians hurriedly passing by on the street, and the whole street was a little deserted and monotonous.

Under the orange glow of the morning sun, the streets look depressed.

Ox carts carrying sacks of relief grain slowly drove across the bluestone paved roads.

The ox pulled the hope of the victims and drove slowly to the north.

"Grass people Feng Yinhui, see Lord Qincha." Looking at the two Qincha who were sitting on the chair and drinking the disaster relief porridge, they knelt on the ground and said loudly.

Chen Yi and the second prince slowly put the porridge in their hands on the table, and said, "Lord Feng, please get up quickly." ”

Feng Yinhui stood silently aside, at this time, he was both excited and nervous, and he didn't know how to speak for a while.

"Since the floods in Jiangnan, the emperor is concerned about the affected people, and ordered the two of us to go to Jiangnan for disaster relief, and learned from the people that Lord Feng is a good official who is fair and honest and not afraid of power, I don't know if Lord Feng still dares to stand up, and he will not hesitate to offend others again, and help the two of us to carry out the disaster relief to the end." Looking at the people affected by the disaster, Chen Yi said a little weakly.

"Two adults, the grass name has been dismissed by Governor Liu, I'm afraid it's powerless." Feng Yinhui bowed his head and said.

"This is easy to do, what about Lord Liu, the history of the Jiangnan assassin?" Yuan Yufeng opened his mouth and asked the official standing in front of him.

Officials, look at me, I look at him, all low and silent.

At this time, Chen Yi stood up and asked, "Since the assassin is not here, what about your prefect Lord Liu?" ”

"Back to the two Lords, Lord Li and Lord Liu said that they were unwell and could not come to the disaster relief, so let the lower officials convey it to the adults." Li Muyun stiffened, stood up from among the officials, and spoke.

"Well, well, well! I think he and Jiangnan Thorn Shi are..."Yuan Yufeng's heart was full of anger, Chen Yi hurriedly pulled Yuan Yufeng and shook his head.

The anger in his heart is also very big, but the strong dragon can't suppress the ground snake, and he has to slow down the urgency, since Li Jingzhi himself doesn't dare to move, but the prefect Liu Jinlong, Chen Yi plans to move.

"Come on, please come out with the sword of Shang Fang given by the emperor." Chen Yi said to the thirteen behind him.

When the officials present heard this, they couldn't help but be shocked, Shang Fang Baojian had never heard of it.

"When I see Shang Fang's sword, I will come in person." Chen Yi held Shang Fang's sword in both hands, and his voice was deep and rough, and the victims not far away could hear it clearly.

"My emperor, long live, long live, long live." Whether it was the officials present or the victims not far away, they all knelt on the ground tremblingly.

"Feng Yinhui listened to the order, and from now on he ordered you to be the prefect of Jiangnan, fully responsible for disaster relief, and the officials present must fully cooperate, otherwise, all the adults here, don't blame this official sword for being ruthless, as for Lord Li of Jiangnan Assassin Shi and Lord Liu of Jiangnan Prefect, since the two adults are unwell, let them stay at home to recuperate, and in a few days the Qin Cha and the second prince will visit in person."

Under the auspices of Feng Yinhui, the disaster relief was carried out in an orderly manner, and the disaster situation was also alleviated.

For himself and the second prince, the top priority is to find a way to raise food.

"Come on, hand these posts out right away." I handed the name card I had written to my subordinates.

"General, second prince, this game has won again." Chen Yi picked up the teacup on the table, took a sip, and spoke.

Feng Yinhui would come to the post house every day to report the progress of disaster relief to himself and the second prince, and he had nothing to do, so he invented chess, and the two of them were in full swing in the post house every day.

Yuan Yufeng looked at the chess game in front of him with a sad face, sighed weakly, and said, "It's the little brother who lost again." ”

After a few days, the relationship between the two became more and more intimate, and he also found out a lot of secrets in the palace from Yuan Yufeng.

Knowing that Lord Qincha was going to entertain the rich people in Jiangnan in his shop, the owner of Qingyulou prepared overnight, for fear that he would not entertain well.

"This time, the second prince and I invited you to come, I think you have roughly guessed what the official wants to find you, no matter what, the official and the second prince will give you a cup first." Chen Yi and the second prince stood up and raised the wine glass in their hands and drank it all, before they came, the two had already discussed, first salute and then soldier, and then one sang white face, one sang red face, of course he played the bad guy.

The local tyrants present, you look at me, I look at you, and no one spoke first.

took the donation book in the thirteenth hand, gathered around the table, walked up, and said: "This time in the disaster in Jiangnan, the imperial court specially sent the official and the second prince to come to the disaster relief, and I have to ask you to donate generously." ”

At this time, the owner of the restaurant walked in from outside the door, stood at the door and said: "Two adults, the small people are doing small business, unlike the bosses here, the rich party, but after more than ten years, the villain has also saved some money, and today he donated it to the two adults, and he also made a little effort for the people." ”

"Someone, bring in. Four young men walked in from outside the door, carrying this wooden box and walking in.

Thirteen glanced at himself, and Thirteen walked to the side of the box and opened two chests, one of which was full of bits and pieces of silver, both large and small.

But his eyes were on another box, which was full of bronze and jade, antiques, calligraphy and paintings.

"My lord, these bronze and jade, antiques, calligraphy and paintings, are all handed down by the little ancestors, and the villain decided to donate them." The boss reluctantly glanced at the contents of the box and withdrew.

In his heart, he is really an iron rooster, and he doesn't pull out a hair.

"Since you are reluctant, the official can't force it, the thirteenth class will find a few people, saying that the official wants to try the case of redressing the grievances of the people in Jiangnan, and all the people who have grievances can go to the post house to find the official."

"Childe, I'll do it."

Thirteen was about to leave, one of the rich men stood up, wiped the beads of sweat from his forehead, and hurriedly said, "My lord, how can we not donate, we are just thinking about how much to donate?" ”

"Yes, yes, what Boss Wang said is very true."

“……。”

took out a small book, put the pen and ink and the notebook on the table, stretched out three fingers, and said: "The bosses here start with 300,000 taels, and when the second boss writes, they can only rise, at least 20,000 taels of silver each time." ”

The middle-aged man who had just stood up to speak snatched the book in his hand and hurriedly wrote his name and the amount of money he had donated.

The rest of the rich people, still counting, found that someone had already taken the lead, and the rest of the people rushed to grab it, for fear that they would write slowly and ask for an extra 20,000 taels of silver.

Chen Yi and the second prince stood aside from afar, watching them quarrel with each other, but did not persuade each other, and watched the play silently.

The two of them wished that these people would quarrel, at least this time, there would definitely be a crack in the originally solid relationship between the people present.

"Chen Yi, how can you be so sure, these rich people are afraid that the common people will seek revenge from you." Yuan Yufeng on the side asked in a low voice.

"Second prince, do you think these people are innocent, even if these people are innocent, but what about their children?"

Yuan Yufeng looked at Chen Yi who was standing in front of him, and secretly said that he must pull such a character into his camp.
