475. Contentment
They were already content, and they were able to run out early without losing their lives, which was much better than other villages.
In addition to the house is gone, everyone is fine, the Lu family also let out all the tents they purchased in advance, and most of the things in the house can still be used, what else do they want?
It's just that the plan to build a house has to be postponed, and from the third day after the earth moves, the rain in the sky has not stopped.
Even though they desperately want to rebuild their homes, they can only look at the sky and sigh.
If God doesn't give you anything, who can do it?
Lu Qingjiang, who was far away in Huima County, was also in a hurry, although the county seat under his jurisdiction did not belong to Qingsheng Province, but it was very close to Qingsheng Province, and the aftermath of the ground movement could still be felt in Huima County, although it was not strong.
Lu Qingjiang sat in his bedroom, his hands were clenched tightly, his eyes were red, and he looked like he had not rested for a long time.
How could he rest well when something so big happened in his hometown? He hadn't slept for two nights in a row, and he was afraid that if he closed his eyes, he would dream bad things.
Now that he doesn't know the situation at home, how can Lu Zhongjiang be at peace in his heart? Fortunately, it didn't take long for the county government to quickly find out that the disaster in Beichi County was not serious, and Lu Qingjiang was a little relieved.
Alas, he wanted to run home for a while, but he was completely bound in Huima County with a layer of skin, and he could only hope in his heart that his father and mother and everyone in the Lu family would be safe and sound.
Lu Qingjiang stood up and walked to the window to look at the gloomy sky, as if he wanted to see his home through the thick clouds, and silently thought in his heart about his son's unfilial piety, such a big thing could not go home as soon as possible.
……
At the same time, looking at the sky and Xiao Qi, it rained for two days in a row, and this girl watched the rain for two days in a row, with sadness on her face.
No matter how you look at this rain, it doesn't look like it's going to stop, everything is as she dreamed of, how can Xiao Qi be happy?
I really hope that this rain can be lighter, it is better to stop, it has been raining for two days and two nights, and if it continues to fall, there will really be flooding.
Don't go down, hurry up and get smaller, rain.
Xiao Qi prayed silently in his heart.
Although I know that this prayer of hers is of little use.
After all, this is irreversible catastrophic weather, and her little luck is too small compared to this.
Through the ground movement, the problem has already been explained, and she has worked hard, and the ground movement is not still happening as usual.
It's just that compared to the scene in her dream, Beichi County seems to be lighter than the tragic image in her dream.
Other places did not have such good luck, and through the news that came, Xiao Qi learned that even Beichuan County, Linxian County, was much more severely affected than Beichi County.
Xiao Qi didn't know if it was because of the efforts of Grandpa Mountain God, or if her prayers in her heart played some role.
Except for Qingyun Village, although there were casualties in every village, the proportion was indeed much smaller.
Most of the people escaped early, but the houses that should have fallen still collapsed.
After all, those mud houses are really unreliable.
There were fewer casualties in the towns and counties, and their lives were better off than those in the countryside.
The houses are also built more solidly, and there are really not many houses that have collapsed.
In the past few days, with the efforts of the county magistrate and the efforts of each village head, Beichi County has temporarily returned to normal.
It's just that just after returning to normal, the rain is coming again, and it is not worrying at all.
"Huh" seems to be a little lighter than the previous heavy rain.
I guess it was his previous prayers that worked.
……
Kyoto
The Jinluan Palace, which had been avoiding the dynasty for a few days, was finally full of people today.
“…… Shengshang, the disaster situation in Qingdao Province is urgent, the ground movement caused the two counties to be almost razed to the ground, and other prefectures and counties are also affected. ”
Master Liu Yuan, the general political envoy, reported the disaster situation in Qing Province to the current saint with a serious face.
Today's saint looked at the civil and military officials under the high hall with a gloomy face.
He was in a good mood when he heard the sad news early in the morning.
Today, the Holy Lord has turned to the Qin Taishi who is standing in the chief.
"Master Qin, what is Aiqing's opinion?"
Qin Taishi: "Holy Lord, as Lord Liu, the general political envoy said, the disaster situation cannot be delayed, Your Majesty should hurry up and send people and materials." ”
"Where is the book of the household?" "Where is the book of the military department?" The emperor said coldly.
"Holy Lord, the old minister is here." The Lord of the Household Department, Sun Yingliang, hurried out of the ranks.
"Holy Lord, the old minister is here." Meng Dong, the lord of the military department, was listed.
Today, the saint looked at the two of them with frowns, and said: "Meng Dong, you quickly send 10,000 soldiers to support Qing Province, and send an order to the provincial capitals near Qing Province to send troops to support. ”
Meng Dong, the secretary of the military department, was overjoyed when he heard this, when the news came yesterday, he was still worried, afraid that the saint would not go to court?
It has been many years since such a tragic disaster occurred in Dasangguo, and the rescue operation is indeed urgent.
Fortunately, today, when they went to court, the court hall finally opened.
Hurriedly said: "Yes, the old minister obeys." ”
Hubu Shangshu Sun Yingliang knelt in the court with a bitter face.
"Holy Lord, I'm afraid that the grain and grass are not enough, and this year's new grain has not yet been fully harvested, and as for the grain storage, there is not much in the grain storage warehouse." Speaking of this, Hubu Shangshu's gaze quickly glanced at Master Qin.
"Bang" The emperor was furious when he heard this.
"What does it mean to not have much? How did you become a household secretary? Why is there no food? ”
"Holy forgiveness! I really don't blame the old minister, although there is a lot of grain handed over to the national treasury every year, and the demand is even greater. ”
"Shengshang, just tens of thousands of soldiers in the borderlands, the annual demand for grain and grass is a large amount, not including the provinces and provinces, but also to build military supplies, the court officials' Fengyin and so on have to come out of the household, the old minister really tried his best."
The words of the head of the household department made the eyes of the officials below flicker.
Even if the book of the household department sells badly, none of the people under them believe it.
There is no money and no food, how is it possible, not to mention that the taxes paid every year are completely enough to support all the expenses of the Great Sang Kingdom.
It is only the state monopoly of koji, iron, copper, and money...... And so on, a series of incomes are very considerable every month, how can there be no silver and no food?
They just want to hehe...... If possible, I would like to take a bite of this shameless Tobe Shangshu.
"How did you become a household secretary? I don't want to hear about these things, in short, you have two days to prepare all these things such as food, supplies, etc., otherwise you will come to see me. The Emperor said angrily.
Speaking of this, the emperor glared at Qin Taishi, who was standing in the first place, and his face was very ugly.
The frightened Qin Taishi looked stunned, and quickly straightened up.
Don't think that he is in the harem all day long, and he doesn't know the small actions that Master Qin does.
He, the emperor, is not really incompetent, but he is impatient to manage the affairs of the court, and he watches every move of the ministers under him, as long as it is not too excessive, it does not affect his mood to look at the beauty, he is open and closed.
The emperor subconsciously forgot that half of the household bank's silver would enter his private treasury every month.
Hubu Shangshu said bitterly: "Yes, the old minister obeys the order." ”
The military supplies of 10,000 soldiers and the supplies for rescue made the head of the household book sweat coldly.
Although he embezzled a lot, relatively speaking, it was the Taishi who got the most benefits.
After dealing with some things again, the current saint can no longer bear to sit in the court, and announces his retirement from the court!
After retreating from the court, the Shangshu of the Household Department outside the palace quickly caught up with Qin Taishi.
With a bitter face, he said: "Master Taishi, you can save Xia Guan this time, where does Xia Guan have so much silver to prepare supplies, you must know ......"
"Okay, I know, I'll ask the housekeeper to send five thousand taels of silver when I go back." The remaining words of the Hubu Shangshu were interrupted by Qin Taishi.
"Where are the five thousand taels ......" Lord Shangshu's words were not finished when he was interrupted by Master Qin again.
"Okay, don't say it, go back, I know that you can take out this silver, and being able to produce these five thousand taels of Taishi can be regarded as benevolent and righteous, don't take an inch." Qin Taishi said with a gloomy face.
If it weren't for the fact that the book of the household department was still useful and could provide him with silver, he wouldn't even have a copper plate at all.
Five thousand taels of silver can buy a lot of food, plus the household department Shangshu has been greedy enough for all these years.
After saying this, Qin Taishi brushed his sleeves and left, sat in the sedan chair of the Taishi's Mansion, and left quickly.
Tobe Shangshu looked at the figure of the Taishi leaving, and spat resentfully.
There is no such thing as the previous posture of bowing his head and begging for help.
