Duan Hao's heart was broken when he received the princess's order! On weekdays, if he could have a prince and nobleman in this small county town, he would cry with joy, until there was green smoke on his ancestral grave, and now he wondered if his ancestral grave had been dug up.

For other things, Gwangnyeong Fortress is the largest city on the road to Gyeonggi in Hexi Province, and it is now the largest gathering place for displaced people in both places. The Tatar army besieged Beijing, although it was not passed by Guangling City, but the people of Hexi Mansion who had suffered a bad disaster are now running here with their families, and the people want to go to the capital to get a city seal and guide the road, these people want to go east, but they have to line up in Guangling City.

Now the homeless people in the city are overcrowded, and the people queuing outside the west gate can't see the end of the line when they stand on the city tower. What's even more hateful is that many homeless people came to Guangling City and didn't leave, and for a time there was a miasma of smoke in the city.

These people are ruined, many of them are still missing arms and legs, they have no work, no savings, no house and no land when they come to Guangling City, what else can they do except be beggars and steal and rob? For a time, the city was chaotic, beggars were everywhere, and the stench was stinking.

He ordered the west gate to be closed and blocked the homeless outside, but there were too many people, and this crowd made trouble and almost smashed the city gate, so he found someone to strengthen the city gate while limiting the speed of release. This led to a long queue outside the city, and many people lined up for half a month, setting up tents outside the city, as if it had become a self-built slum.

Every day, a large number of people inside and outside the city starved to death, those who died of serious injuries, those who fought and made trouble, and the errand workers in the yamen were busy enough to collect the corpses for a while. These people were burned and looted by the Tartars, and they had nothing to lose, and after a long time, they heard that they began to eat people. This news disgusted Duan Hao for a while, and he could only see it. Just beg Cen Zhuo to stuff some more money, he doesn't have too much appetite, he can see that he has been filial piety for many years and quickly move him to a position, don't let these bad things get involved again.

It's good now, I used to pray to God and worship Buddha, hoping to meet a noble person and let him climb up, but now he doesn't dare to take it when a noble person comes, it's really not the time. Duan Hao simply beat his chest, the second princess still has to travel the streets, how can this street full of homeless beggars swim? If you're not careful, it's possible to rob the princess! Poor mountains and bad waters come out of Diao people, Duan Hao feels that the current homeless people in Guangling City are more hateful than this Diao people.

Duan Hao smashed the scroll on the table on the head of the county prince Zhou Zhou, Wang Zhouzhou is his wife's cousin, who is very unlearned and unskilled on weekdays, and he is still sitting here and dozing off with his eyebrows, which makes him almost angry: "Get up!" Still sleeping! I can't sleep with you! Think about it, what are your ideas! ”

Wang Zhouzhou was woken up by smashing, and pulled his sleeve to wipe the corners of his mouth: "Didn't I say it all, drive these homeless people out of the city first and close the city gate!" The rest of the matter will be talked about when the princess is gone. ”

"What a bad idea you call this! The princess entered through the east gate and went out through the west gate. You drove the people out, shut the door, and when the princess came out of the west gate, the wild men would not gnaw all the bones! ”

"Doesn't the princess have an army of 20,000 and relatives? Can't cure these displaced people? Wang Zhouzhou didn't care and sniffed.

Duan Hao kicked him on the lap: "Can the 20,000 army enter the city?" That doesn't overturn Guangling City! Besides, it's the Suhe Iron Horse, if they find out that we are dealing with the homeless people like this, let alone help, we will definitely not be able to eat and walk around. ”

Wang Zhouzhou yawned: "There are other counties further east, and you can go to other counties to build roads in four or five days, and you can also go to Gyeonggi, let's let them go to other places to get stamped?" ”

Duan Hao simply felt that his wife's cousin was mentally retarded, and if he could get people away, he would have taken action a long time ago. These people can crawl and roll until Guangling City has already used their strength to feed, their bodies are weak, they have no food, no money, and they lack arms and legs, how to go? Not to mention four or five days, even hundreds of miles, you have to die on the road. They all arrived at Guangling City with a sigh of relief, and the spirit of the spirit moved again. What's more, these people are fine, if they want the next city to be the same as his Guangling City, wouldn't they leave in vain, it is better to stay outside Guangling City, as long as they wait in place slowly.

Wang Zhouzhou had no idea, and cried with a sad face: "Or, why don't you ask the main bookkeeper Zhang Haizhu?" He has passed the imperial examination and is educated. I'm an official who spent money to buy it, and I'm here to be a master to enjoy it, so how can I do things. He patted his head: "Brother-in-law, you also took the entrance examination, no, you are cheating." ”

Duan Hao wanted to strangle him, this was unstoppable. He didn't ask Zhang Haizhu! Zhang Haizhu will ask him to open a warehouse to release grain to help the people, can this granary be opened casually!

He sent two points of the grain in the granary to Hexi Mansion as filial piety, and left three points in the warehouse at home, joking, the Tatar army is gone this time, so it will come again next time, how can I do it if I don't have any reserves at home. There were still two points of Tatar invasion, the grain merchant thought that there was going to be a war, and the price of grain was soaring, so he hurriedly got some to sell, and deliberately sold the news that the war was about to be sold to the highest price, making a lot of money. Therefore, there are only three points of grain left in the granary of the government office, and he is looking for someone to fill it up with some old grain, defective products and sand, which has not been placed yet, how can he open the granary!

Wang Zhouzhou saw that Duan Hao couldn't do it on the left or right, and he was very impatient: "Otherwise, you will be killed." If you want me to say, first drive out the homeless people in the city, and then put some gruel and some medicine outside the city, and then dig a pit in the field and bury them when they are all killed, so that everything will be clean. Anyway, they are all outcasts, helpless, and if they die, they will die. It's just that it takes a little trouble to dig a pit overnight, and when the time comes, I'll find a group of brothers to help," rubbing two fingers: "Spend some silver." ”

Duan Hao was startled, poked his finger at his heart, and said angrily in a low voice: "How dare you! So many people! At a glance, there are thousands of them, but I don't know how many are still on the way! ”

Wang Zhouzhou grabbed his finger: "Brother-in-law, you have said it, I don't know how many are on the road, just these thousands are still the first, and tens of thousands of people are coming, what should you do?" His eyes showed a grim look: "Besides, these thousands of homeless people gather together, and they don't get any plague, and the plague doesn't die as soon as they die." ”

Duan Hao sat in the chair and rubbed his head: "You let me think, think about it." ”

Wang Zhouzhou stood up and lifted his pants: "Brother-in-law, the princess Ming'er has already entered the city, and now we can drive out the refugees in the city first, and when the princess settles down and rests in the evening, we can spare the manpower to bury people." If you don't make a decision quickly, it's too late. You want to hurry, it will take time for me to gather the brothers to work. And this matter has to be kept secret, you have to give me some silver as hush money. ”

"Don't argue, don't argue, I want to think, think about it." Duan Hao stretched out his hand and waved weakly at Wang Zhouzhou. "You go first, let your sister arrange the reception of the princess in the house, and greet the Oiran and Kabuki of the Qinglou in the city, and the soldiers will serve me with all their strength if they want to come!"

"Didn't you say that the Suhe army would not enter the city?" Wang Zhouzhou said.

"If the army does not enter the city, how can the generals not enter the city and be happy! All day long in the men's pile, those people can see the sow can be bloody! Go, go, go! "The Suhe Iron Cavalry is very powerful in battle, but in other aspects, the soldiers in the world are black, and Cen Zhuo's people are very familiar with that virtue every time they come.

"Master, there are a large number of displaced people gathered in the west outside Guangling City, about 3,000 people. On the way to the west, a large number of displaced people are slowly moving eastward, and they are all people who have lost their homes and relatives in the south of the Tatar army.

Guangling City is very chaotic now, there are about nearly seven hundred displaced people stranded in the city, Duan Hao did not settle them, let them become beggars in the city, or steal, the city is very chaotic. "Although I have received a message from the scout in front of me a few days ago, Hongchan is back at this time, so I still ask her to come over and talk about the details.

"Duan Hao didn't open a warehouse to release grain, and let these displaced people scatter to other counties to build roads? I estimate that this Tatar invasion will cause a total of about 100,000 displaced people, and if the Hexi Prefecture, Youbei Prefecture, and Gyeonggi areas along the way can be properly resettled, they can be handled. ”

Hongchan shook her head: "I didn't open the granary, let alone entangled." Every day a large number of people died of starvation, wounded and sick. ”

"If the situation is so chaotic, do you want to stop the second princess from entering Guangling City?" Eleven said worriedly.

"Since she wants to go, let her go, as a princess on the top, it's good to know more about the people's suffering." Turning his head sideways to Hongchan, he said, "You send a message to the scouts in front of you, so that they can always keep up with the movements of Guangling City, and send back the news in time." I estimate that the second duke is going to Guangling City, and Duan Hao will not let the current situation go unattended, just worried about what extreme means he will use. ”

"Yes! Do you want your subordinates to go again in person? Hongchan said.

Wei Qikang lowered his eyes, raised his head and said, "No need, you just came back and had a good rest." After a pause: "Tomorrow, you follow Jiang Li and take care of her safety." ”

"Tomorrow when you come to Guangling City, you follow me." Ni Xiaoye said to Puhui: "Xiao Peixi is too quiet, unlike her character, I'm worried about what kind of demon she will be." Puhui nodded: "Okay, everything is up to you." "I'm excited again, is this the first time I've gone out on a mission? I'm looking forward to it, I'm so excited!

The next day, near noon, the army of Heqin arrived ten miles east of Guangling City, stopped and waited to camp in place.

"Why only twenty guards! I'm the princess of Da Yin Kingdom! Xiao Peixi stood in the carriage and shouted, she was happily waiting to enter the city, but when she lifted the curtain and saw that there were only twenty guards in her honor guard, she rushed out in a rage. Just this little person, how can this support the princess's ranks, she still wants 20,000 horses to follow her into the city!

"The second princess Guangling City is small in area, and the streets are narrow and can't accommodate too many people." Eleven arched his hand.

"Can't squeeze it? What is the maximum number of people that can be accommodated? Why don't you go with the main palace and then stay outside the city? Xiao Peixi was in a hurry, only twenty people were paraded alone, and there was no momentum at all.

"On the streets of Guangling City, the princess's five horsemen, gold ornaments, silver ornaments, embroidered belts, and Qingman carriages can't pass, and they have to untie two horses to barely pass. If the army arrives at the gate, it will block the normal entry and exit of the city gate, the princess's original intention is to take care of the people, if it hinders the people's livelihood, it may not be beautiful, if the official knows that the impeachment is a misinterpretation of the original intention of the second princess, but it will damage the royal prestige, and I hope the princess will forgive. Eleven's words were reasonable, and there was a hint of threat.

"Since it's so crowded, I can't bother." Jiang Li walked over slowly, followed by "Xiao Ye National Teacher", both of whom were wearing huge weird hoods and similar figures, and if they didn't speak, they couldn't tell who was who.

"No way!" Xiao Peixi immediately retorted, joking that Jiang Li and Wei Chukang were the protagonists this time, how could they not be present! Afraid that Jiang Li's elm pimple would not bend, he hurriedly added: "You are the messenger who accompanied the palace to make peace, you, you have to accompany me." You go in with me in my carriage. ”

Look, I knew you were going to be a demon! Okay, let me appreciate where your IQ is offline. Jiang Li nodded: "That's okay, the courtiers will obey the will of the princess." Xiao Ye Guoshi stepped forward: "Master Remnant Entrusts this seat to take care of Jiang Junjun all the way, and this seat and Jiang Junjun go together." Xiao Peixi pouted, just go, anyway, she is a nun, so she nodded: "Then Xiao Ye Guoshi will also ride with the palace." Chong Eleven said: "Now that we have three people going into the city, you don't send more men." Xiao Ye Guoshi is a big country teacher from the first grade, and Jiang Junjun is also a fourth-grade teacher, if something goes wrong, can you afford it! ”

Xiao Peixi felt that he was simply too witty, Eleven just now had a taste of righteousness and salt, but now there are two more people, which one is not higher than you, see what else you can play!

Wei Qikang glanced at Jiang Li: "Then let's take forty honor guards, the second princess can't be more." The mansion of the magistrate can't accommodate so many people. ”

"Zhixian? Isn't it the City Lord's Mansion? Xiao Peixi was stunned, "Second princess, although Guangling City is called a city, it is really a county system, and the so-called city lord is the county." "Eleven is in no hurry to give her illiteracy.

"Just a county? I'm going to live in the prefect's house! Xiao Peixi was surprised, the relationship is just a small county town, so what else is there to look forward to, it must be small and broken, and what kind of sesame official is the magistrate, this palace is the princess of the dynasty who wants to live in a magistrate's house, and I don't know if it is clean! I was remorseful in my heart, and glared at Huansha, a brainless one. Huansha hurriedly lowered her head, for fear of looking at the second princess, where did she know this, thinking that the city was the kind in the book.

There was no turning back when she opened the bow, and now it is too late for Xiao Peixi to regret it, if it weren't for her big plan, she would definitely have left according to her temperament. But when he thought of Wei Zhikang, he stomped his feet, and Bengong endured it! As long as you don't marry a barbarian, it's better to live in the county government than to live in a tent on the grassland!

The situation here Bai Yiyi master and servant have been pricking up their ears and staring at them wide-eyed, seeing that Wei Zhikang, the second princess and Jiang Li are going to Guangling City, but she is left behind, these two women and one man are carrying her behind her and maybe something will happen, and she panicked. hurriedly walked out, stood behind Wei Qikang and pulled his sleeve: "The slave has to serve the master, and the slave has to go." ”

The second princess saw that it was Bai Yiyi again, a slut, and just wanted to scold, but when she saw that she didn't want to sweep her face in front of the public, she gritted her teeth and held back, okay, you go, when the time comes, when she sees Wei Yikang surrounded by beauties, her heart is moved, and she can't kill you!

Wei Chukang shook his head and said, "I'm not going." ”

What the! The second princess was dumbfounded, how could he sing if he didn't go to this play!
