Wang Yun naturally saluted Leqing, and said in a respectful tone: "In the past few days, the official has been busy with official business, and he has neglected the adult for a while, and he has forgotten that the adult has a lot of Haihan. ”

Le Qing didn't know what Wang Yun wanted to do, and he didn't answer, just looked at Wang Yun puzzled.

"In order to apologize, the lower officials want to set up a banquet in the city, please be sure to appreciate your face." Wang Yun's attitude was very sincere.

Le Qing shook his head, pointed to the victims of the disaster all over the place, and said solemnly: "Lord Wang, forgive me, Jin sees that the people everywhere are not clothed and hungry, where is there that leisure and elegance to go to the banquet." ”

Lin Xingyu knew that with Le Qing's compassionate and compassionate character, seeing such a scene, his heart was more uncomfortable than anyone else, and at this time, the prefect Wang, who happened to not know how to look at his face, invited him to have a pastime, and he couldn't complain that Le Qing, who was kind to others, did not give Wang Yun a good face.

It's just that these are not the point, the most important thing is that in addition to disaster relief, there is another important thing to do for the purpose of Leqing's coming to Huaizhou.

And this matter is widely implicated, if you want to find a breakthrough, you have to start with this arrogant prefect first.

If they didn't dare to act rashly a few days ago, but now that General Qu is in charge, these big officials and small histories in Huaizhou have to make a show and give a few thin noodles.

Looking at the faces of the prefect Wang before and after General Qu came, you can know that he is afraid of General Qu.

At this time, if Le Qing was only a momentary emotion and tore his face with Wang Yun on the surface, then I am afraid that the next thing to do would be much more troublesome.

Wang Yun's face froze, and his smiling expression was almost overwhelmed, but he still echoed in his mouth: "Yes, seeing that the people everywhere have become homeless, the lower officials are also anxious, but even if they are anxious, it will not help!" ”

Le Qingyu's eyelashes flashed a few times: "Since Lord Wang doesn't want to see the people suffer from the wind and rain, why don't you order someone to find a shelter with tiles to cover the people's heads?" ”

Wang Yun's eyebrows flashed with a little disdain, and he said helplessly: "The unflooded places in the city are full of people, although there are vacant rooms in the inn restaurant, but Xiaguan, as the parent official of Huaizhou, can't forcibly occupy the merchant's house and let the refugees move in, right?" ”

"Why not?" Le Qing naturally continued: "Lord Wang, it's really not a secret, Jin has asked General Qu to lobby the owners of vacant houses in the city, and let them vacate the vacant houses temporarily to resettle the victims. ”

"How's that going to work? Lord Qincha, who else would dare to do an inn restaurant business in my Huaizhou after you do this? Besides, Xiaguan is also the prefect of Huaizhou, according to the normal order, if you have any ideas, you should always tell Xiaguan first. Wang Yun's voice suddenly rose, and in a fit of rage, he almost overturned the umbrella that the subordinate was holding for him.

Le Qing stretched out his hand and brushed the water droplets splashing on the hem of his clothes, and said lightly: "Didn't Jin already tell Lord Wang about you?" The number of victims is still increasing, and I am afraid that no matter how many vacant houses there are in Dongcheng, it will be difficult to accommodate them, so I also ask Lord Wang to cooperate with Jin to build some tile sheds, and try not to keep the victims under the wind and rain. ”

Wang Yun couldn't calm down at this time, a stinky boy who didn't have any hair dared to instruct him, if he didn't give some color, this stinky boy wouldn't be called Wang Yun.

"Happy ......."

"Lord Wang."

Wang Yun was just about to speak, but was interrupted by someone who came.

"Lord Lin." Wang Yun turned around and shouted, his tone was quite polite.

Lord Lin first said hello to Le Qing, and then approached Wang Yun, who had a bad face, and whispered.

Wang Yun's face changed a few times, and finally reluctantly smiled at Leqing: "Xiaguan must cooperate with the adults to settle the refugees, and after this matter is over, Xiaguan will pick up the wind and dust for you." After a pause: "Xiaguan will go back first and order people to prepare, and everything will be under the orders of Lord Qincha." ”

Le Qinghu stared at the two suspiciously, and then nodded.

After Wang Yun and Lord Lin glanced at each other, they turned around and got into their carriage.

And Xiao Shi, who was standing on the side, quickly left the eastern suburbs under the pretext of official business when Wang Yun came.

"Miss Lin, what's wrong with you?" It wasn't until the carriage disappeared from sight that Le Qing turned around and looked at the woman in front of her who wanted to hide her whole body behind her.

Lin Yuniang shook her head with a pale face.

Le Qing saw that her face was not very good, and there was obviously something, but since the other party didn't want to say it, he was not reluctant.

General Qu was very efficient, but in half a day, he persuaded the owners of all the vacant houses in Dongcheng by forceful means to agree to give up the houses temporarily.

Most of the victims lived in vacant houses in Dongcheng at the first time, and a small number of victims also moved into places where they could shelter from the wind and rain.

Overnight, the stables, firewood houses, and utility rooms of the entire eastern city were full of people, and even the ruined temple was occupied by beggars in the past.

Early the next morning, Le Qing took Lin Xingyu to the largest vegetable market in Dongcheng to give porridge.

The victims of the disaster, who had received a notice from the officers and soldiers last night, lined up at the vegetable market before dawn, and by the time the two of them arrived at the vegetable market, they had already lined up in a long line.

Under the porridge shed, dozens of officers and soldiers wore thick coats to maintain order.

The hot and fragrant rice fragrance was blown around by the wind, and some of the hungry children swallowed dryly, staring at the steaming cauldron.

General Qu, who was standing next to the catastrophe, rolled up his sleeves and stirred in the pot with an iron spoon, saw Le Qing walking towards him, so he handed the iron spoon in his hand to the soldiers on the side.

"General Qu, is the porridge ready?" Le Qing did not use an umbrella today, but wore a heavy coat and a hat.

General Qu walked up to Le Qing and said, "It's almost." ”

"Then let's get started, don't keep the people waiting." Le Qing nodded and motioned to start the soup kitchen.

General Qu passed down the order.

For the people who have been hungry for a long time, not to mention the fragrant white rice porridge, even if they eat bran vegetables, they are all delicious.

The idea of people living at the bottom is very simple, as long as they can fill their stomachs every day, it is the greatest happiness to not be cold and hungry.

"Jinzhi, the food I brought can only last for ten days at most, and if the heavy rain continues, the number of victims will definitely continue to increase, so this food may only last for less than a week." General Qu and Le Qing are the same age, and the two of them are very good, so when Le Qing took over the task of disaster relief, he did not hesitate to ask the emperor for orders to come to Huaizhou to escort grain and grass.

It's just that the heavy rain in Huaizhou has been falling for nearly two months, as early as half a month ago, the imperial court has sent four or five ministers to come to the disaster relief, but before these ministers arrived in Huaizhou, they either died or were carried back to Kyoto with a breath left, and the materials for disaster relief naturally disappeared.
