184 Disaster relief

Ling Xiaoning couldn't help but sigh.

She happened to hear about some of the great generals' former great achievements, and the image of a man who galloped on the battlefield and was invincible immediately appeared in her mind.

It is said that the general is not only very strategic, but also quite skillful and should be a first-class master in today's rivers and lakes.

Unexpectedly, his son not only does not know martial arts, but also is a waste of firewood.

Dragons give birth to dragons and phoenixes, and the sons of rats are born to make holes.

Why did the general give birth to such a waste wood?

"Do you think this matter is a deliberate rumor spread by King Qin, but in fact, he is just an ordinary young master and not the son of a great general?"

Song Zhiqiu shook his head gently.

"Impossible, those generals had a deep affection for the generals back then, and if there were really any descendants of the generals, they would not recognize people indiscriminately. Presumably, King Qin must have come up with convincing evidence to identify him. ”

"Even if he is really the son of a great general, he shouldn't be allowed to be a general without any ability...... If it's time for a fight, I'm afraid he'll be the first deserter. ”

"Don't say that, if you don't see each other for a day, it's like every other autumn. Letting him mix with those generals now might have a lot of effect on him...... He didn't know his true identity before, but now that he knows, he will hear more stories about how he got rich first...... He must have been affected a little bit. ”

"Perhaps, but I don't think there's much chance of him becoming a useful person."

When Ling Xiaoning was alone, he couldn't help but sigh.

Time flies quickly, and it's been almost a year since I crossed over.

The people I know around me have also changed a lot.

Mo Feiwan is about to marry His Royal Highness the Second Prince and become a wife.

The eldest young master An Rong, who used to look down on him, also became the son of a general in a blink of an eye and became a general.

Song Zhiqiu's father died unexpectedly, and he experienced some setbacks and successfully ascended to the throne.

Ji Xuanchen left the capital after both of them entered the palace and resumed his previous life of traveling around.

Ling Xiaoning originally planned to keep him in the palace and let him enjoy some good days with him, but because he was afraid that the king would be jealous, he didn't dare to force him to stay.

Song Zhiqiu is sometimes jealous, but it should not be underestimated, not to mention that now that his status is a little higher, the consequences will become more serious.

The form of the imperial court has just stabilized, and because of natural disasters, the people in some places are struggling to make a living, and they have begun to make trouble again.

There was bad news just now.

Song Zhiqiu found someone to mobilize some money to go over for disaster relief, but he met a corrupt official and spread out more than half of the first batch of disaster relief materials, which did not have any good effect.

After hesitating for a while, he planned to temporarily act as the agent of the imperial court, and he personally took people to disaster relief to check the situation.

lest the people have been suffering from natural disasters and have not been rescued by the imperial court for a long time, causing panic and turmoil.

This can also be said to be the first good thing he did after he took office. If this is done quickly, it can also reassure the people and win a good reputation.

He didn't know how long it would take.

Ancient and modern times are not the same, and a few hours of driving between the two provinces may be a little farther away from their side, and it can even take months to ride in a horse-drawn carriage.

Ling Xiaoning naturally offered to follow him to disaster relief, and by the way, he visited different scenery and appreciated different customs.

Song Zhiqiu was a little reluctant at first, worried about what accidents would happen on the way to the disaster relief.

What's more, the two of them went to disaster relief this time to do good deeds, not to play.

If those victims knew that the two of them were playing in the mountains and rivers all the way, but the victims were living in dire straits, they would definitely be quite dissatisfied with them.

At that time, it will not achieve the effect of regaining the hearts and minds of the people, but may bring about some bad things.

Ling Xiaoning had no choice but to compromise and plead again and again, ensuring that there would be no trouble on the road, and that he would suffer a little if it was a big deal.

After two days of preparation, the two of them officially set off.

In order to prevent any accidents on the way, they brought many experts to protect the disaster relief materials.

Relief supplies include some food, some cloth, gold and silver temporarily transferred from various warehouses.

It is not known how much of the affected area will be affected, and it is not certain whether the relief supplies will solve the problem all at once.

The exact situation will only be determined after they have visited the affected areas.

Before Song Zhiqiu left, Hou Ye was still planning to prepare, and he would take out some more grain from some relatively wealthy places and prepare to go to disaster relief.

Judging from the previous pedestrian time, they need to take a horse-drawn carriage to arrive at the disaster relief site, and travel day and night, at least five days.

Along the way, in order not to be tongue-in-cheek, the two of them ate and lived together with ordinary people and did not settle down in a good inn to rest.

Ling Xiaoning originally planned to come out with him to relax, but he didn't expect to come out and suffer instead, and he couldn't help but regret it a little.

Suffering from the bumps of the carriage every day, not taking too long to rest every time, and not eating very well, this is simply out to suffer.

It's just something you choose, and it's too late to regret it.

On the fourth day, the carriage was still a short way to reach the disaster area.

On the way to the disaster area, you can see some ordinary people who have been affected by the disaster. When a natural disaster strikes, many people want to go to other places to seek refuge with relatives and find a way to make a living.

They all looked yellow-skinned and thin, quite pitiful.

Ling Xiaoning suddenly didn't feel how hard it was to travel these days, at least every meal was well eaten, and there was a carriage to sit in.

These people are different, they can starve to death at any time if they eat the last meal or not.

The carriage continued to run for half a day, and people from the local government and county government came to greet them.

In order not to make a big scene. Although Song Zhiqiu is the king, he has already said hello before, and this time he came to deliver disaster relief materials as a pro-him.

There is no need for anyone else to know who he really is. Except for a few officials such as the county magistrate, other ordinary people did not know his true identity.

"Well, you don't have to bow down, you have to be a messenger in front of the others...... In addition, my official position as a chaplain is only one grade higher than yours...... There's no need to be so grand. ”

"The lower official understands, please go back to the yamen to rest."

Then several of them followed the county magistrate to rest in the yamen, and the others led the supplies to a nearby warehouse to settle down.

It's been a hard time for everyone these days. Song Zhiqiu planned to go to the street alone to learn about the situation of the victims after sending the county master away for a while.
