Qianyan has come to see the homeless people here a few times, and now there is still a steady stream of homeless people rushing here. If this continues, it will not be long before there will be a larger-scale phenomenon of displaced people grabbing food, and only innocent people will be killed or injured.

Shu Yao floated to the city wall and looked down, it had only been a day, and the number of homeless people outside had more than tripled, and some homeless people had already begun to starve to death outside. From above, it looks like a dense bunch of small black dots huddled together. Shu Yao looked at the scene below, and felt very uncomfortable, because she had never seen the scene where so many people would starve to death one day. In modern times, even if Shu Yao lived to be 100 years old, such a thing would not happen, but since she picked up this system and entered this world, she has truly seen that so many people will die this summer because of drought and lack of food.

Another of the men under the walls could not stand it anymore and fell.

Shu Yao couldn't bear to continue looking, looking into the distance, he could vaguely see that some homeless people were still coming here.

Returning to Qianyan's side, Shu Yao found that Qianyan's face was also very bad, thinking that he didn't expect that so many people would be hungry. Looking at the hungry people outside the city gate desperately rushing in but being suppressed by the officers and soldiers, Shu Yao really couldn't bear to look at it.

Above the court, when the refugees just began to come in, the emperor was furious about this matter, why did there be refugees from so far away to come to Kyoto, and the ministers did not dare to say a word.

Now more and more displaced people are pouring in, and if they continue to be kept out of the city, riots will break out sooner or later. The emperor couldn't sit still, and gave an order to the many ministers under the court: Whoever can solve this matter for me will be rewarded.

No one dared to respond. No matter who goes to this matter, it's just a hot potato, and it can't be picked up. The emperor looked at the court of Nuoda, and no one was willing to stand up and take over this matter. angrily threw the piece in his hand down; "Did I raise you to see that you are here now?!"

Several princes stood below and did not dare to speak, and the seven princes thought about the recent situation in Kyoto, there were more and more displaced people, and if some measures were not taken, it would eventually turn into a rebellion of displaced people.

Thinking about it, the Seventh Emperor stood up and said, "Father, the sons are willing to govern some homeless people, and over time, they will definitely give their father a satisfactory result." ”

When the emperor saw someone standing up, his face looked a little better: "It's still my seventh brother who is willing to take on big things, my seventh brother, I will leave this matter to you to take full responsibility." Three million taels of silver and two hundred quintals of grain were allocated from the household department for disaster relief, and if any of them dared to stumble. Even if you report it, I won't believe it, who dares to be so rampant and dare to make a stumbling block for the prince. ”

As soon as these words came out, people who had the idea of stumbling over them all took back this idea one after another. Those who don't have such thoughts don't dare to have such thoughts, and for a while, there was only the voice of the Seven Princes answering in the court.

Back at the city wall, Qian Yan looked at the homeless people outside and restrained herself from wanting to go out to help them. Because there are too many displaced people, in order for these displaced people to be able to eat, they need to have a high-ranking and powerful person to organize them, and he needs to find someone to do it.

After receiving the holy decree, the Seven Princes led hundreds of soldiers to quickly come to this place at the city gate, and Qian Yan saw the sign of the Seven Princes from a distance, stopped wanting to go back, and stood in place waiting for them to come.

The Seventh Prince rode all the way over with the Holy Decree, and when he saw Qian Yan here, he stopped his horse, turned over, glanced at Qian Yan, and turned around and walked towards the city gate. He walked up to the city wall, stood on a high place, stood in front of the homeless people, and said, "I am the Seventh Prince, and the Emperor has given full authority to this prince in your affairs. As long as you settle down, the prince can guarantee that you can eat food. You won't starve to death, and you'll have a place to live without having to sleep outside. ”

The homeless people have been blocked outside the city gate for so many days, and they no longer believe their words: "We have been here for so many days, and I don't know how many people have starved to death, and now you casually say that you can guarantee that we will eat food, who will believe you." ”

Faced with the questioning of the homeless people, the Seventh Prince did not show any anger, and replied: "As long as you keep to yourself, I can guarantee that you will be able to share the food and will not starve to death, if you don't believe me." If there is any further disturbance outside, I will not order them to open the gates, you should know that. Only those who listen to me will have a glimmer of life, and if you continue to consume, more people will die. ”

The homeless people quieted down, and if they could enter the city, they would have a glimmer of life, and if they couldn't get in, they could only wait outside for death, and some homeless people said: "Then how do the outsiders know if what you say is true, and how can we believe you." ”

The Seven Princes saw that some of the homeless people began to loosen, and waved their hands, and some soldiers carried more than a dozen frames of steamed buns up the city wall, and the homeless people below saw the steamed buns, and they went crazy in an instant, they were already hungry, and now they wanted to go up and grab the food when they saw it.

If the Seven Princes did not give an order, the soldiers would not pour these steamed buns down, and the Seven Princes looked at the people below quietly, knowing that they were quiet before saying, "As long as you believe in me, I will fulfill my own promise." I hope you can give me an answer tomorrow, these steamed buns today are for you to eat. ”

The Seventh Prince waved his hand, and the soldiers began to throw down the steamed buns, making sure that everyone could receive the steamed buns in their hands. When the homeless people saw that they could really eat steamed buns, they stopped making trouble, just waiting for him to answer tomorrow.

Qian Yan has been watching the reactions of those homeless people from the sidelines, because he was often hungry when he was young, and he knew that the taste of hunger was not pleasant, and it was very uncomfortable to see so many people at the risk of starvation.

After believing him, the Seven Princes walked to Qianyan's side and asked him to go to the attic next to him to discuss what to do next.

After entering the attic, the Seventh Prince said to Qianyan: "The recent affairs of the homeless people, thanks to the foresight of the gentleman, made me prepare early, but now there are more and more homeless people coming to Kyoto. The number of displaced people in Kyoto has already exceeded the previous expectation, and it must not work if it goes on like this, sir, is there a solution? ”

Chiyan also underestimated the drought this time, and there are more and more displaced people, and Chiyan analyzes the situation in Beijing recently: "There are more and more displaced people. It is certainly impossible to survive this drought with the grain in Bai Gongzi's hands alone, and now the grain prices of various grain merchants have risen a lot. Ordinary people simply cannot afford to consume it, and it is possible to solve the problem of displaced people if they can get more food. ”

The Seventh Prince said: "Today, in the court, my father gave me 200 loads of grain and 3 million taels of silver as disaster relief materials, I don't know if these are enough. ”

Chiyan thought that if it didn't rain all the time, more and more people would go hungry. But for the situation that there is no special number now, we can only deal with the food first.

Another problem is that there is no place to settle the displaced people, and there is a place as large as Kyoto that can be used as a place to settle the displaced people.

Qian Yan thought that he had ten acres of land on the outskirts of the city, because of the lack of water, the crops there were already dead, and he could resettle the displaced people there. After hearing this, the Seventh Prince immediately instructed the matter, and those dead crops could also be used as sleeping mats, so they saved the expense in this regard.

I discussed with the Seven Princes some small details of solving the homeless people, and when I returned to the small courtyard, the sky had already become a little dark, and the evening had already come. Walking on the streets, you can see people everywhere looking for food on the ground because of the drought. The recent events have caused panic in people, and there has been a phenomenon of grabbing food, and some people are afraid to go out. I can only come out when necessary, and I don't dare to go out and hang around in normal times.
