The next day, An Cheng couldn't sleep until the end of the day, and after breakfast, he asked where Han Tao went.

Han Tao was helpless.

Early in the morning, he and his subordinates went to several other counties involved, and they planned to call An Chengluo together, but after sending someone to invite them, they found out that the eleventh prince had not woken up yet, so he had to go alone.

Pity him and the eleventh prince came to Ningzhou to investigate the case together, the eleventh prince eats and sleeps well, but he has to work back and forth, this is the difference between people and people.

The eleventh prince is used to being an idle prince in the capital, and he doesn't care about anything, and he doesn't expect the eleventh prince to give him much help in this case.

Since you can't help, as long as you don't pull him back, then thank God.

The eleventh prince eats, drinks, sleeps and sleeps in the inn, saving him from pointing fingers in front of him and adding unwarranted trouble to him.

At the end of the day, Wu Qing sent people to other places to transport the ingredients to the post house, An Chengluo went to take a look together, looking at the three-horse cart full of chicken, duck and fish, An Chengluo smiled helplessly.

Wu Qing is planning to fill the entire kitchen of the post house before he feels satisfied?

The small place in the kitchen of the post house is not wider than the place of King An's Mansion, and it can't fit so many things.

An Chengluo asked people to call Li Tieniu, selected some ingredients from them, and sent the rest to the Fengquan Mansion for them to send to the affected people.

Li Tieniu was so happy that he jumped three feet high.

Yesterday, I was worried that there were no ingredients suitable for making pots in the kitchen, but I didn't expect that today's Eleventh Prince himself sent the ingredients, which saved him from bothering to get the ingredients, and he didn't have to worry about the Eleventh Prince's dissatisfaction with eating, so he pulled him to the court staff.

The ingredients were sent by the eleventh prince himself.

Li Tieniu selected some left and right, called a few post house officials, and moved all the ingredients to the kitchen, knowing that the prince still had it for these ingredients, and he didn't dare to make any decisions about the rest, so he left after choosing.

Wu Qing planned to go to the government by himself, An Chengluo thought for a moment and followed.

Anyway, Gangneung hasn't come back yet, and it's okay to stay in this post house all day.

When the messengers who stayed behind in the yamen saw the carriage of the eleventh prince appear at the yamen, they did not dare to slack off at all, and several people hurriedly stepped forward to salute.

An Chengluo lifted the curtain, looked at a few errands next to the car, and asked, "What about you adults?" ”

Naturally, it was Pang Dehou who asked.

One of the officers replied with a sincere fear: "Back to the eleventh prince, my lord has been giving porridge to the victims in the porridge shed for the past two days, and he has not come to the palace. ”

An Chengluo frowned slightly, lowered the curtain, and instructed Wu Qing to turn around and send the ingredients directly to the porridge shed.

Pang Dehou placed most of the affected people in a vacant lot outside the western city of Fengquan Mansion, and a number of poorly built wooden sheds occupied the entire vacant land.

The ragged people lined up in a long line, waiting outside the porridge shed, Pang De held a big spoon in his thick hand, and filled the bowl in his hand with sticky porridge for the people spoonful after spoonful.

Pang Dehou's expression looked a little more haggard than when he first greeted him outside the city gate, his eyes were deep-set, his eyes were bloodshot, and his face was full of stubble.

"My lord, the eleventh prince is here." A small official approached Pang Dehou's side and reported.

Pang Dehou's hand holding the big spoon paused slightly, pursed his lips, and continued to fill the bowl in front of him with porridge, and then handed the spoon in his hand to the little official next to him, and said, "You are here for me." ”

The little official took the big spoon and nodded yes, and continued to give porridge to the victims behind.

Pang Dehou straightened the wrinkled official uniform on his body slightly, picked up some water from the basin on the side, wiped his face, and walked straight in the direction of An Chengluo.

An Chengluo was directing several attendants to unload the ingredients from the carriage.

Pang Dehou came to his side and said, "Xia Guan has seen the eleventh prince. ”

An Chengluo just glanced sideways at Pang Dehou, then withdrew his gaze, and only listened to him: "Fengquan Mansion suffered this catastrophe, as the governor of the mansion, the huge man has the responsibility that cannot be shirked, but the huge man only stays here all day to give porridge to the people, but he has never seen the huge man deal with other government affairs, is it possible that in the eyes of the huge man, the entire Fengquan Mansion only has these disaster victims, and there is nothing else?" ”

Pang Dehou lowered his head, remembering that when he was at the city gate, the eleventh prince he had never seen would speak for him, which was beyond his expectations, but that was all.

He smiled weakly and said: "Outsiders think that I am in the position of Fu Yin, and I should be regarded as a powerful person in Fengquan Mansion, but no one knows that my Fu Yin is just an empty position, and even my behavior is limited by others." ”

An Chengluo raised his eyes and said: "The huge man is the official of the imperial court, and he is the governor of Fengquan Mansion appointed by the imperial court, who dares to empty the authority of the huge man?" Is it the foolish Nine Emperor Brothers of this king? Or is it someone else? ”

"No matter who it is, it's a word from those powerful people in Beijing, we petty officials and officials are worthless in their eyes, even if we really want to be a parent official who loves the people like a son and does things for the people, but as long as it involves the interests of those magnates, it is still light to lose the official and dismiss him, and if it is serious, it will be the head of the person, and even the family will be harmed, this is the imperial court!"

The more Pang Dehou spoke, the more indignant he became, and the implication was that the eleventh prince in front of him was in the Beijing Division, and he was also a member of the powerful.

He gritted his teeth and continued: "When the matter is really revealed, and when it is out of control, it is our people who have become scapegoats, and I don't want to fight anymore, and I will admit how the court wants to condemn me this time." ”

Although he had also thought that the Eleventh Prince might be different from other powerful people.

But there is not much difference between the eleventh prince and others, who are also relatives of the emperor, and in the eyes of these people, interests and power are greater than everything.

An Chengluo frowned and said, "This king doesn't know why a huge number of people have such a big grudge against the imperial court, but this king firmly believes that there is justice in this world. Even if there are really traitors who run rampant, there will always be a day of retribution. ”

Pang Dehou sneered and said, "Retribution? I can't imagine that the eleventh prince is so naïve, no wonder the eleventh prince will be reduced to sitting in a wheelchair today. ”

"Presumptuous!" Wu Qing snorted coldly, and the gaze that shot at Pang Dehou was like a sharp blade, and the sword on his waist was slightly sharpened, and the cold light appeared.

Pang Dehou glanced at Wu Qing, but he was not afraid of the sword in his hand, but straightened his waist, raised his head slightly, looked directly at An Chengluo, and said, "Isn't the eleventh prince curious why I have been staying in this porridge shack and not caring about other political affairs?" Don't hide it from the eleventh prince, even if Xia Guan is now sitting in the mansion, Xia Guan is still a Fu Yin who doesn't know anything about Fengquan Mansion. ”

"No one will tell the lower officials, what is the current situation in Fengquan Mansion, how are the people, the lower officials only need to swallow their anger and do their meager efforts here, as for the rest, naturally someone will deal with and arrange for the lower officials, even the charges of the lower officials."
