The smile on the corner of Nanhong's mouth became even stronger, and the kind of look that saw through it without saying it was obviously overdone.

Zhen Chutian was embarrassed by Nan Hong's small feelings, and patted the back of her hand, "If you don't go to Han Shuangyi, that kid should be in a hurry." ”

"What's this, shy?" Nan Hong smiled ambiguously, squeezed her eyebrows at Zhen Chutian, and then left in a dashing manner.

After Nanhong left, Zhen Chutian's breathing became smoother.

At this time, Zhen Chutian was the only one left in the room, so it was quiet.

After packing up everything and changing clothes, Zhen Chutian went directly to the back kitchen.

At this time, there were not only the cooks of the yamen in the back kitchen, but also Gu Chenghan.

In Zhen Chutian's opinion, he is a person whose fingers do not touch the rain and dew, and he is even more a gentleman who cooks far away, what is wrong with him today?

With such doubts, Zhen Chutian quickly came to Gu Chenghan, "Lord Gu, what's wrong with you today?" ”

"What, what's wrong?" Being asked by Zhen Chutian like this, Gu Chenghan was even more dazed, he didn't find anything unusual about him.

At this moment, Zhen Chutian felt that he was talking too much, and spread his hands, "Just when I have nothing to say." ”

Zhen Chutian smiled slightly, trying to fool all this past.

If it were the past, maybe Gu Chenghan would really fall for her, as if she hadn't heard it, but today, I don't know if it was the leisure and leisure that I brought it, and I actually had the idea of asking to the end.

Slightly closer, the posture of the two became very ambiguous again.

After the cook added firewood in the firewood room, she coughed, "My lord, this pot is stewing, and the women will go out first, and they will come back later." ”

After speaking, without waiting for Gu Chenghan to reply, the cook ran out with a cigarette.

At this time, Zhen Chutian was inexplicably embarrassed, and there was an indescribable emotion.

Zhen Chutian specializes in the study of human psychology, and when she saw the corpse, she quickly and accurately gave the murderer's test, because she could infer his inner activities based on any traces left by the murderer.

And when facing Gu Chenghan, it seems that all the things she learned have been handed over to the teacher, and those past experiences have become just words.

"I don't know where this cook is from, but it's not bad to smell it." Zhen Chutian diverted the topic and looked at the meals in the kitchen.

easily dodged from Gu Chenghan's side.

Gu Chenghan wasn't embarrassed, just followed behind her, watching her wander around the kitchen aimlessly.

To tell the truth, this cook's skills are really good, although Zhen Chutian is not particular about eating, but this dish is also pleasing to the eye, but I don't know how it tastes.

"My lord, the cook said that everything is ready and ready to eat." Yu Linglong shouted from the kitchen door inside.

This will make Gu Chenghan hear Yu Linglong's voice, so he looked at Zhen Chutian.

"Brother Yu, let the cook come in, what is stewed in this pot we don't know yet?" Finally, someone rescued him, and Zhen Chutian's heart was naturally full of light.

Hearing Zhen Chutian's voice, Yu Linglong also knew why the cook didn't come in person and call Gu Chenghan.

"Okay, let's go." Yu Linglong didn't wait for Gu Chenghan to speak, so she went directly to the cook.

Originally, Gu Chenghan planned to tease Zhen Chutian, but eating was the most important thing, so he simply chose to compromise obediently.

All the meals in the front hall are on the table, Han Shuangyi is a child after all, although he has not been treated badly in Lizhou for several days, he has not eaten anything good, and now looking at the table full of good wine and food, his eyes are shining, and the corners of his mouth are drooling.

"What are you waiting for, let's eat." Gu Chenghan lightly threw out the word and began to eat.

The rest of the people did not continue to twist, picked up the chopsticks and began to eat.

Three days later, a letter came from the capital, and at the same time the new prefect also arrived, he knew Gu Chenghan, surnamed Zhu, a single name and a back, although it was only a small prefect, it could be regarded as a local parent official, so the people came to watch.

However, when they saw that it was a young man, they all felt that this court had sent an unknown junior, but only Gu Chenghan knew that he was this year's new science and technology scholar, and he was a talented person with complete civil and military skills, and he was only slightly inferior to the champion of the era.

Naturally, he is the empress's party, and it is best for the empress to send him here this time.

It can not only appease people's hearts, but also pocket this piece of Lizhou, this is actually the empress is strengthening her own power, as long as this famine is settled, then the empress will be able to compete with those old stubborn in the court in the future.

On the second day after the lord returned to the town, he implemented a new policy, and the people of the town all benefited, although they let their families give money to relieve the refugees, but they were also willing to help, after all, the prefect promised that after this incident, the prefect would return the silver, and there was interest, and it was a good deal.

Gu Chenghan somewhat praised Zhu Hui's approach.

At the same time, Zhu Hui also brought back a letter from the empress, and the disaster relief money sent by the court will arrive in the town in a few days, she ordered Gu Chenghan and others to wait in the town, don't go to the famine, after all, the displaced people there are lost, and everyone can kill red-eyed people for a mouthful of food.

The empress didn't let Gu Chenghan and the others die anywhere.

Knowing the empress's worries, Gu Chenghan didn't refute it, but he still wanted to go to the famine to see, so he asked the official to go to the front in disguise to find out.

For a long time, when the official came back, his face was covered with dust, and the clothes on his body had turned into tattered strips of cloth, and his face and body were all injured, Zhen Chutian frowned and looked at these people, "What's the matter?" ”

Zhen Chutian greeted these people and beckoned Yu Linglong behind him to hurry up to find Gu Chenghan.

When Gu Chenghan came over, Zhen Chutian had already asked the matter clearly.

"My lord, the hungry people are now a group of hungry wolves, they will rob people when they see them, and now they can't go, if we go, we probably won't be able to come out alive, so let's wait for the disaster relief money to come, and then go, this is a record of where the small one came from."

The officials not only went to see the situation of the hungry people, but most importantly, they went to see the situation there.

According to the records of the officials, Gu Chenghan quickly made a judgment.

The disaster relief money of the imperial court, plus the 10,000 taels of the Zhang family, plus the silver from the people of the town, is hundreds of thousands of taels.

There were only three places not far from the town where there was a famine, and those three places were first in a drought for many years, and then experienced insect infestations, and then they collapsed.

From these three places, the other surrounding towns were also more or less affected, so the entire north was affected, and the empress began to panic.

And a doctor with a conscience like Xiang Songjiang, they were afraid that riots would follow, so they rushed over, everything was straightened out, and what to do in the follow-up, Gu Chenghan also had a plan here.

Since receiving the letter from the capital, Gu Chenghan began to discuss with Zhu Hui, and now he has discussed countermeasures.

They decided to live in the town first, and use the 10,000 taels given by the Zhang family to buy rations and send them to the famine land, so as to stabilize the mood of the refugees first, so as not to really riot and affect more innocent people.

Of course, just relying on the town's official service, it was impossible to send dry food over, so Gu Chenghan asked the capital to issue an edict to inform the prefects of the surrounding towns, leaving a small number of people to stay in the local yamen to guard, and the rest of the people came here to deal with it.

The empress is not stupid, and naturally knows that this is the best way at the moment.

And Gu Chenghan sent people to keep an eye on the capital, and also sent people to keep an eye on the disaster relief money, for fear that someone would move this batch of money, which was life-saving money.

Although Gu Chenghan doesn't love money, he knows the importance of this batch of silver, so he values it very much.

In the past few days, Zhen Chutian has seen the exhaustion on Gu Chenghan's face, and wanted to comfort him, but he didn't know what to say, and the words were swallowed back a few times.

It was also the first time for Yu Linglong to see Gu Chenghan like this, and she was worried in her heart.

He and Zhen Chutian glanced at each other at the door of Gu Chenghan's room, and sighed inexplicably.

"Zhen, what do you say about us, what's wrong, I've encountered so many things before, and I've never seen him so worried?" Yu Linglong couldn't figure it out, and was scratching her head and looking at Zhen Chutian at the moment, hoping that she could solve her doubts.

Zhen Chutian barely squeezed out a smile, she had seen Gu Chenghan an hour ago, and from his eyes, she saw reluctance.

She knew that he was pitying those hungry people, although he had never seen them with his own eyes, but along the way, what they saw was only a small witch, and now the official sent to report it, he was a little uncontrollable.

"Don't worry, it's okay, Master Gu will figure it out himself......" Zhen Chutian comforted Yu Linglong.

But before she could say anything, the official outside stumbled in, "My lord, my lord, it's not good, the Zhang family is dead." ”

"Zhang's family?"

The official panted and looked at Yu Linglong and Zhen Chutian, seeing her so confused, the official nodded solemnly, "Yes, it's the Zhang family, it's dead, now it's all in the yamen, Lord Zhou went to the front for disaster relief, and now there is only Lord Gu in the yamen." ”

The voice of the official became smaller and smaller, Zhen Chutian naturally knew what he meant, frowned slightly, and thought for a moment, "Brother Yu, you go and have a look first, and I'll go find Master Gu." ”

After explaining, Zhen Chutian went directly into the house.

knocked on the door and heard the movement inside, and seeing that Gu Chenghan did not refute, she went in directly.

Gu Chenghan, who bowed his head to deal with the official document, did not raise his eyes, but he knew that the person who came was Zhen Chutian, and seemed to feel her lowness, and then said, "What's the matter?" ”

"My lord, the Zhang family is dead, and now we are waiting in the front hall." Zhen Chutian looked at Gu Chenghan expressionlessly.

Gu Chenghan didn't reply, just glanced at Zhen Chutian, hesitated for a moment and got up to put down the object in his hand, and went to the front hall with her.

As soon as I walked into the front yard, I heard crying.

The voice can't be described as heartbreaking, but it's real.

Zhen Chutian couldn't help but rub his ears, and then frowned and looked at Gu Chenghan, "My lord, who is the woman you are talking about?" ”

"Just go in and see." Gu Chenghan said and took the lead in entering the lobby.
