The tide of displaced people is coming much faster than anyone could have imagined. On the last day of April in the second year of Jiaxi, when the soldiers in charge of the major gates of Lin'an City woke up, they found that in just one night, all the people under Lin'an City were occupied by dense and unkempt homeless people. The crowd is crowded, and I am afraid that there will be no less than 100,000 displaced people.

As far as the eye can see, it can be clearly seen that there are more displaced people who are gathering around Lin'an City.

The news was naturally sent to Zhao Yun's desk in the imperial city as soon as possible. Zhao Yun, who hadn't opened his eyes yet, heard the news, so he naturally fell asleep and hurriedly summoned the ministers, but after half an hour, the Taihe Hall was already full of civil and military ministers who were still in the capital.

In the Taihe Palace, hundreds of officials stand according to their ranks. Even Prince Rong, who rarely went to the court, rarely appeared at this court meeting.

In fact, after the earthquake in Huizhou, many people in the DPRK and China had already expected that there would be a large number of displaced people, after all, the earthquake that could make Lin'an City feel the earthquake was already rare in a hundred years in the Great Song Dynasty. Coupled with the drought situation in various parts of the country, which was not widely spread before, these things are not a secret in the DPRK and China. However, it is one thing to anticipate, and the real face is another.

Everyone didn't expect that the tide of displaced people would come so quickly and in such a large number, but in just half a month, the first batch of displaced people had already arrived under Lin'an City, and it is said that the number of displaced people outside Lin'an Mansion had exceeded 200,000 in just one night.

200,000 displaced people is nothing to the more than one million people in Lin'an City, but these 200,000 are obviously not all displaced people. And it's just the first batch of displaced people, and these displaced people are obviously displaced people who are very close to Lin'an, and those who are farther away must still be on the way at this moment.

There are already so many displaced people in the first batch, so how turbulent the tide of displaced people will be this time, just thinking about it makes the ministers of the court and the central government rush from the bottom of their hearts to powerless.

In the Taihe Palace, Jia Rudao, who has been promoted to the prefect of Lin'an Mansion, is naturally on the list, and his position is still very high. It's just that I didn't see Jia Yidao's figure at today's court.

The ministers, looking at the empty seats, were different from the same month ago. As the youngest important minister to enter the cabinet, what kind of scenery was Jia Rudao more than 20 days ago? But today, many people have a look of schadenfreude on their faces.

It has only been more than 20 days since Jia Nidao took office, and it is no secret that Jia Nidao has been raising food and banqueting those rich businessmen and giants these days. In fact, as long as you are a little well-informed, you know that Jia Rudao is hitting a wall everywhere. In these more than 20 days, even with Zhao Yun's support, it is impossible to raise enough food to feed the more than 200,000 displaced people outside the city in just over 20 days.

What's more, the 200,000 displaced people who are now appearing outside the city will obviously not be all. The number of people affected by the disaster is said to have reached the millions, and the panic caused by the burning and looting of some of the rogues is likely to increase.

Most of the grain that was the only one in the treasury had been shipped to Ezhou in order to support Meng Heng's battle of Xiangyang, and Shi Songzhi and Yu Tianxi left Lin'an City with more than half of the few grains in Lin'an City.

With no food in his hands, in the face of the more than one million displaced people who may come, Jia seems to know what the outcome of the prefect of Lin'an Mansion will be.

An hour later, the will from the imperial city also arrived in Lin'an Mansion.

Close the major gates of Lin'an City, and no one is allowed to enter the city; ordered the prefect of Lin'an, Jia Yidao, to immediately preside over the disaster relief matters, and there must be no mistakes. This is the only way that Zhao Yun has reached in the face of the swarming homeless people who have discussed with the ministers of the DPRK and China for a long time at the court meeting.

But he threw everything to Jia Yidao in one go.

Jia Rudao was not surprised by such a will, and it can even be said that he had already known a few days ago that there would be such an edict when the displaced people arrived.

It was such an edict that he had been waiting for in Lin'an Mansion. And obviously he was not waiting alone, early in the morning, the officials of Lin'an Mansion, large and small, including the commanders of the front of the palace, were all summoned to the Lin'an Mansion Mansion.

Jia Rudao is the first time to know how many officials there are in his Lin'an Mansion, and how many generals are in the front of the palace.

With a huge contingent of more than 1,000 officials, the Lin'an Mansion is naturally not enough to stand. Therefore, even the patio outside the government office is full of officials, and this is only the high-quality officials in the Lin'an Mansion, and there are constantly officials who are coming to join this army of officials.

When Dong Songchen arrived at Lin'an Mansion with Zhao Yun's will, the officials of Lin'an Mansion who were called to come were already about to line up outside the Lin'an Mansion.

Dong Songchen, who sent away the edict, with Jia Rudao high-fived, more than ten heavy boxes with inner library seals were lifted down from the five carriages on the square outside the Lin'an Mansion under the escort of more than 100 inner hall direct forbidden troops and placed in the patio in front of the mansion.

Seeing these boxes with inner library seals, a group of Lin'an Mansion officials couldn't help but feel a commotion. However, seeing Jia Yidao standing on the corridor, the commotion quickly subsided.

Jia Yidao nodded lightly at Zhao Yi, and with Zhao Yi waving his hand, after more than ten knife sounds, all the boxes were opened.

"Wow!"

As the box was opened, the officials, who had been active and prepared, could no longer keep their composure, and there was an uproar, and the quiet group of officials suddenly surged like a tide.

There were fifteen chests, each of which was densely packed with silver ingots. Under the sunlight, it is almost impossible to look directly.

Jia Rudao looked at these standing officials coldly and did not stop them. These people, he felt familiar with only one percent, and he could name them, and he was afraid that there were less than twenty people.

He thought that there would be enough officials in Lin'an Mansion for him to use, but he didn't expect that there would be so many officials in front of him who he had basically never even seen.

The commotion lasted for a long time before it gradually stopped.

Countless pairs of eyes focused on Jia Yidao.

"This is the 150,000 taels of silver that the Holy Lord has allocated to his official from the inner treasury. In addition to the official, four products are one hundred taels, and five products are eighty taels; 6 taels for 6 grades, 40 taels for 7 grades; Twenty taels for each officer under the seven grades, you only need to register in the general judgment room afterwards and receive the silver immediately. ”

The huge Lin'an Mansion was instantly silent.

Compared with the shock of seeing these silvers, Jia Rudao's words brought more surprise to these officials. No one expected to hear such a statement. What's to be done? Divide the emperor's silver taels?

"You don't have to worry, this silver is not the money of the official who is greedy for ink, but the holy gift to you. As for what reward will be given to you, after listening to the words of the official, you will know the way.

The Holy Decree and the others just now have also heard it, and now there are hundreds of thousands of displaced people gathered outside Lin'an City, and more displaced people will appear outside Lin'an City in the future. In the next period of time, the Holy Lord needs you to really think about my Great Song Dynasty and do things for the court wholeheartedly. This silver is given to you in advance. ”

"Long live your majesty, long live, long live!"

Hearing this, the officials of Lin'an Mansion below finally felt relieved.

"Don't rejoice too soon." When the chanting of long live gradually dissipated, Jia Rudao smiled suddenly and continued: "In this disaster relief, the Lin'an Mansion and the official are fully responsible, and the front division of the palace assists, presumably you have just heard it from the holy decree. ”

"The lower officials and others are the only ones who are looking forward!"

"Hehe, don't be in a hurry to show your loyalty. The silver that should be given to you has been given to you by the Holy One. If someone dares to hold back the official in this disaster relief, greedily pay for food, withhold grain, ask for bribes, and do not do things with all his heart, the official will definitely make you regret taking this white money today. This official will not give anyone a chance to quibble, only three words for you, there is no forgiveness for killing! ”

"Wow!"

After the officials heard the words Jia Rudao's three words of no mercy, they were in an uproar. However, the commotion soon quieted down again, and many people looked disapproving.

Taizu has a will, and he can't be punished by a sergeant.

No one thought that Jia Yidao really dared to do such a big thing.

Jia Yidao naturally saw the looks of the officials below, but he didn't plan to continue to bother with this tongue.

"It should be said that the official has already said it, and your colleagues can go to the judgment room to receive the money and the tasks assigned to you by the official. The generals in front of the palace can stay. ”

"Retire from the lower ranks!"

In just a moment, more than a thousand officials of Lin'an Mansion, large and small, rushed to leave and went to the general judgment room to receive the silver, where Yu Ci was waiting for them.

There are not many generals from the front of the palace, but there are only more than a hundred.

Zhao Qi has been removed from the position of the commander of the front division of the palace by Zhao Yun, and Jia Rudao is now also the commander of the front division of the palace temporarily, as for Zheng Kuo, the deputy commander of the front division of the palace who had a conflict with Jia Yidao, he did not see it in this time.

But these naturally have nothing to do with Jia Nidao, and he doesn't bother to ask if he doesn't come to Jia Nidao.

"Here, there are also 50,000 taels of silver, which is also a gift from the Holy God to the head of the temple. Twenty thousand of you were left and divided, and the remaining thirty thousand taels were to be distributed to the ministries as silver. ”

"Thank you, sir!"

More than 200 generals in front of the palace were overjoyed when they heard Jia Rudao's words, and they bowed down in unison.

"Don't thank me, if you want to thank you, thank the saint. The silver that is due to you has been given to you by the Holy One. The 30,000 taels of silver, if anyone dares to deduct half a cent...... Hehe, this official doesn't mind borrowing the saber of the inner sanctum again. ”

Hearing Jia Rudao's words, the commanders who were originally ready to think carefully in their hearts couldn't help but tremble in their hearts.

Borrow a saber straight from the inner sanctum?

At the beginning, Jia Rudao borrowed the saber of the inner temple last time, but he personally cut off the head of a green forest thief. This is not a secret. Basically, all the soldiers in front of the palace knew about it, because they were eyewitnesses.

borrowed the saber, which means that he will slaughter them with his own hands.

"The last general will not dare to wait!"

Regardless of whether he is afraid or not, no one dares to show it at this time.

The respect for these generals in front of the palace, Jia Rudao was noncommittal. Just as he did with the officials of the Lin'an Mansion who were already swarming to receive the silver. He knew that there were some things that would never have much effect when he said them, and these old fritters were obviously not scared.

However, these Jia Yidao knew it in his heart.

Believe it or not, it has nothing to do with him. He just had to say the ugly things in front of him, and as for what would happen next, it would be up to them to do what they would do.

"Now, go back with the money and send all the money down, and then go out of the city with the whole team."

"Ahh

"My lord, the Holy Lord has issued an edict to seal the city gates, how can we get out?"

"Yes, sir!"

Hearing that they were going out of the city, these generals of the front division of the palace suddenly became anxious.

"The Holy Lord has sealed the city gate and prevented those displaced people from entering, but if the official does not go out of the city, how can he provide disaster relief? Give you an hour, and after an hour, the officer will be waiting for you at the south gate. ”

"Yes, sir!"

"The last general obeys!"

Hearing that he was going to leave the city, the response of the generals was obviously not so willing.

In this regard, Jia Rudao just smiled coldly.

……

When Jia Rudao arrived at the south gate, the soldiers in front of the palace guarding the city gate had already driven all the displaced people in front of the south gate hundreds of steps away. Because of Jia Rudao's order, he didn't use any drastic means, but just used arrows to drive the people away little by little. But even so, there are still a lot of people who are injured by avoiding trampling.

The reason why he drove away was because Jia Yidao was worried that once he lowered the drawbridge and opened the city gate, those displaced people would rush to the city. For these hungry homeless people, Lin'an City is the only way to live.

If the bullet can't be suppressed, I'm afraid that before this relief disaster starts, the entire Lin'an City will be occupied by displaced people. Although there are less than 200,000 people outside Lin'an City today, although it is still increasing, these 200,000 people are obviously not enough for the huge Lin'an City. What's more, not all 200,000 people gathered outside the South Gate.

Jia seems to say this, just in case.

After all, once those homeless people really rushed to the city, then there was no doubt that the imperial court would definitely choose to send a large army to drive these homeless people who entered the city out of the city, and what kind of consequences would be caused when they were driven away, obviously no one could control it.

It is naturally best to be prepared.

Not long after Jia Rudao arrived, more than 1,000 officials of Lin'an Mansion also arrived under the escort of the Inner Temple Forbidden Army, and these officials had obviously been divided into more than ten groups. Each group was led by a highest-ranking official, who had more paper in their hands.

"My lord, as soon as the accrual is divided, the officials have already been distributed, but it is just ......"

Yu Ci looked at the officials who obviously didn't take it seriously, and said to Jia Ru with some concern.

"Are you worried that they won't be able to do well? Can't complete the task? ”

"Exactly!"

"Hehe, there is no doubt about it, they will definitely not be able to complete it, I don't need more than a thousand officials, I just need to be able to leave thirty percent of the available talents, it is enough, and the rest ...... Hey. ”

"Then why do you give them all the money? You must know that it is the Holy One who took it out of the inner treasury and gave it to the adults to buy food......

"Shh

Jia Rudao glared at Yu Ci, who was a little excited with a look in his eyes, "Two hundred thousand taels of silver, how much grain can you buy?" Do you know how many homeless people there will be? I'm probably the most optimistic estimate of millions. Now that they have reached a condition with Zheng Huaijin and the others, there is no need to waste these 200,000 taels of silver."

"But my lord, if I am told by Taiwan, my lord, this is a crime of bullying the king......"

"I will give an appeal to the Holy One. Where is the sin of deceit? Not only will I tell the saint, but I will also return the 200,000 taels of silver to the saint as it is, so you can rest assured. ”

"Then why did your lord give these silver to those officials in the name of His Majesty, and even pay the soldiers in front of the palace? They will inevitably be greedy for most of the ......"

"I know they will be greedy, and I am what I made them greedy. But if I don't let them be greedy, they will still be greedy...... Hehe, my silver, it's not so easy to take.

Well, none of these things matter. Those officials in Lin'an Mansion can't be trusted, and I must be even more untrustworthy. Therefore, the better it is for Zisheng and Pingfu and Komeito to work harder. After leaving the city, according to the plan, the refugees in various places were first divided according to the state capital and clan affairs, and it was important not to let them gather together, but also to let those displaced people elect people of high moral standing to be their leaders; Then, let the soldiers in front of the palace take them to cut down trees and build houses; There is also enough space to be prepared to accommodate more displaced people.

As long as these displaced people do not gather together, then we will be more than half successful in this disaster relief. Tell the principals elected by the displaced people that if the houses are built quickly enough, in many places, and in good order, the officials will give priority to providing them with enough food. There are also medicinal herbs and other things. Alas...... Why did you tell you that I tied it again, we have deduced it many times, hard work, Zisheng! ”

"The lower officials will not fail in their mission! Adults can rest assured! ”

Just as the two were talking, 10,000 soldiers in front of the palace had already rushed to the south gate of Lin'an City under the command of Liu Xiang, the commander of the front division of the palace. There are a total of 50,000 soldiers in the front division of the palace, of course, these 50,000 soldiers are reported to the military department, according to Jia Yidao, the actual number of soldiers in the front division of the palace should not be 40,000.

Now the displaced people outside the city have gathered, and the people in the city are already panicking. It is impossible for him to transfer all the soldiers of the front division of the palace out of the city, and at this time, the stability in the city of Lin'an City is actually more important than the outside of the city.

After all, the displaced people outside the city lacked food and clothing, as long as the imperial court could provide food and appease them. These homeless people will not be a big deal. If there is chaos in the city, then there is no way to talk about so-called disaster relief.

Seeing that Liu Xiang had arrived, Jia Rudao patted Yu Ci, Zhou Tan and Qin Shou on the shoulders and waved his hand suddenly.

In a series of "Crunch Crunch! In the sour sound, the south gate of Lin'an City slowly opened under the gaze of countless anxious homeless people outside the city.

"The gates are open!"

"The gates are open!"

An earth-shattering shout suddenly came from outside the city, followed by countless dense footsteps.

Hearing this voice, Jia Rudao's expression involuntarily changed.
