Chapter 449: Yang County
Qin Yining wore a simple light green muslin gown, with a black gauze hat, and was only dressed as an ordinary woman, with four silver-faced spies such as rock candy, Jiyun and stunning, standing not far from the street corner.
The stunned whispered, "Madam, do you want to continue to spread the news?" ”
Outside, they were afraid of revealing their identities, so they all called Qin Yining Mrs.
Qin Yining nodded and said, "Go on." You can't let the master always take the blame for others, he himself is unwilling to publicize it, but we can. ”
Da Han said in a low voice: "I'm just worried that the one above can't get used to the master's exploits, and then it will be sour and boundless." ”
Da Han was the most experienced among the four silver-faced spies who followed Qin Yining's side, and he was also the best at analyzing the situation.
Qin Yining couldn't help but laugh when he said it, "The one who wants to use the policy of fooling the people to make everyone a blind and deaf person with a misty eye, otherwise it will be difficult to rule." But he didn't want to think about it, no one is a fool, who is really good to himself, and who is hypocritical, isn't it easy to tell the difference? To judge how a person is, you only need to look at what he has done, not what he has said. And to determine how a superior person is, we only need to look at what the people eat and wear. ”
Saying this, Qin Yining turned around and walked towards the yamen with the group. He whispered again: "Now everyone can't eat enough, homeless, and worried every day, but someone is still struggling with the treasure......"
These are all her henchmen, even if they don't know all about these things, they all know everything.
Xiaoman sighed: "That's why there is the sentence 'Xing, the people are suffering, dying, the people are suffering', and the most unlucky people are always ordinary people." ”
"yes." Everyone whispered in agreement, and their hearts were desolate.
All of them, none of them have not suffered hardships, and one of them was born with a silver spoon, but the family was also persecuted by the faint king, and finally made a displacement, from the eldest lady to the fate of a maidservant.
As for Qin Yining, who has never enjoyed a good life since he was a child, let alone him.
Therefore they are the ones who know best the suffering of the people. I can best understand their feelings.
Many times, ordinary people don't even care who they are under their jurisdiction, all they care about is whether they can be fed and clothed. Can you not be disturbed by war?
It's a pity that this is a troubled time, especially the land of the Great Yan Dynasty, as if half of it has been cursed, and disasters continue one after another. Sometimes even the most basic food and clothing are extravagant for them.
The group returned to the yamen with a heavy heart, and Xiao Xiao and Gong You had already led people to prepare horses.
Because the roads were badly damaged and often blocked by landslides, they could not ride a car when they went out, but could only ride horses.
"Lord Wang, the road in Yangyang County is not easy to walk, and we may need to climb through the stone pile halfway. The princess is weak, can she follow? ”
Xiao Xiao smiled and said: "She's fine, don't look at her soft and weak, but she is a man who does not lose our man's temperament, and there is a Zhuangzi in Yang County who he married, she wants to go and see." Wouldn't it be nice if we could raise food? ”
Gong You nodded with a smile and said, "A woman who can be worthy of the prince, where can it be simple?" By the way, was the princess a native of the Yan Dynasty before? ”
At this time, Qin Yining had already approached, and said with a smile: "Yes, Lord Gong, my father was originally the prime minister of the Yan Dynasty, and was later named the crown prince and the princess, and led the Marquis of Anping." Later, the Yan Dynasty was chaotic and decaying, and my father became obedient to the Holy Lord. ”
"Ahh I know, I know! Ling Zun is the one who is the Qin Shangshu of the dynasty, known as Zhi Pan'an, isn't Lord Qin? ”
Qin Yining smiled and nodded.
"I see, it turns out that the princess is from a famous family, no wonder this person-like bearing is different from ordinary women, so the dowry and silver money donated this time have been sold to the house, and it is also Qin Shangshu'......"
Qin Yining smiled and said, "It's good to be able to help." My father meant not to be public. ”
When the officers heard this, they became grateful.
Even the casual Jinghu Wei and Long Xiang Jun admired Prince Zhongshun and Lord Qin a little at this time. They all understand why they are not prepared to preach merit. They just want to do some facts for the people, they don't want to take away anyone's reputation, and they don't want to set themselves on fire.
It is so simple to do practical things for the people, which is even more moving.
Xiao Xiao led a meek horse with a red date, and the black steed also followed, rubbing Qin Yining with his long face.
Qin Yining was amused, and couldn't help but stretch out her slender fingers and touch the horse's mane, her white hands looked as white as snow under the dark clouds and black hair.
Xiao Xiao handed the reins of the horse to Qin Yining, and said, "My dark cloud is too hot-tempered, although it likes you very much, but if it is happy to take you and run wild, it will be dangerous." This horse has good stamina and is docile, you can ride it. ”
Qin Yining took the reins and said with a smile: "Okay, but you don't have to worry, my riding skills are okay, I have ridden wild horses outside before, and I have lived with the wild horses for a while." ”
Qin Yining said, put on the hat, and then stepped on the stirrups, and then turned over and rode on the horse.
She was wearing a short gown today, and the long skirt on the lower body was a pleated skirt, and when she got on the horse, the skirt fluttered, like a butterfly spreading its wings. The people who watched couldn't take their eyes off it, and she sat on the back of the horse with her back straight, which really gave people a sense of sassy and heroic.
Xiao Xiao's eyes lit up, patted Qin Yining's hand, and then turned around and jumped on the back of the dark cloud.
Huzi also helped the rock candy to get on the horse at this time, and couldn't stop quipping: "Fortunately, I taught you at least earlier, otherwise wouldn't you be unable to keep up with us now?" ”
Bingtang glanced at him and said, "It was Madame who taught me, not you." ”
"Whoa! How ungrateful you are. ”
"Who is ungrateful. Drive! As soon as Bingtang shook the reins, he rode his horse to Qin Yining's side.
Huzi had no choice but to touch his nose and get on the horse.
Gong You's carriage with Master Lu and the four young servants also got on the horse, parallel to Xiao Xiao and his party, and the remaining Jinghu Wei and the silver-faced spy were mixed with the horses of the Long Xiang Army.
The group left the capital and went all the way to the direction of Yangyang.
Yang County is far from the old capital, and it can be reached in half a day if it is non-stop.
But that was when the roads were good.
There are many roads to Yangyang. This led to the fact that after the earth dragon turned over, the landslide and the boulder rolled down, and there was no place to let the horse gallop on the road to Yangyang.
In some places, there are no roads anymore, and they need to lead their horses to step on rocks and crack mounds of earth.
At first, Gong You was still a little worried, after all, it is not uncommon for everyone to learn riding skills, but few women can bear to cross mountains and mountains like this.
When he came, he said that he hoped that Xiao Xiao would give up taking the woman on the road, but Xiao Xiao didn't listen, and he had no other way.
But when they really arrived at the mountain road, Gong You, Master Lu and the four errand soldiers were really eye-opening.
Qin Yining is extremely dexterous, bold and careful.
For example, on this section of the road, a large rock on the mountain rolled down and blocked the whole way, and there was only a small narrow road that could allow one person to pass for a day, but this narrow road was a boulder on one side, and an abyss on the other side, and even the horses refused to go forward. Qin Yining insisted on holding her jujube red horse to the side, and persuaded the jujube red horse to go over.
This is really impressive to everyone.
Even some people who were too timid to leave, seeing that a female streamer was so powerful, they all mustered up the courage to walk over without hesitation.
The group was really trekking through mountains and rivers, and they didn't arrive until dark after half a day's journey.
And the situation in Yangyang County is not much better than the old capital. The only thing that is better is that there are not as many buildings in Yangyang County as there are in the old capital, and it doesn't look so miserable.
There are still many refugees on the streets. Seeing this group of people leading the horses, the procession was huge, and there were many soldiers among them, and the refugees avoided it even more.
Gong You took the group to the county office.
Half of the walls of the county government were half collapsed by the earthquake, and standing outside the wall, you could see tents set up in the courtyard, and many refugees were huddled inside.
Gong You handed over the horse to the servants, and entered the courtyard with Xiao Xiao, Qin Yining, and a few guards, and shuttled between the poorly formed tents to the front room.
"What about you Li Zhixian?"
"Huh? You are the prefect of Gong! How did you come here in person? The magistrate has just entered the house, so I'll call you! The person who replied had seen Gong You, and he had already disappeared between words.
Gong You explained to Xiao Xiao: "That's Li Zhixian's entourage. ”
Xiao Xiao nodded, and stood in the courtyard waiting.
Qin Yining looked at the tents around him, most of the people living there were homeless people whose houses had been destroyed, and some of them were families living in a tent. There are also some rooms for several men, or a room for several women with children.
It seems that the magistrate of Yang County loves the people like a son.
It's just that Qin Yining has some doubts that the treasure will come to Yang County. She felt that Li Qitian's spies might not be right. Because the mountain road they came on was really too difficult to walk.
Especially the mountain near Yangyang, the mountain road is blocked by boulders, and she is leading the horse to walk over with trepidation. Where will the convoy of that treasure pass smoothly?
Unless there are other roads to come to Yangyang.
Just pondering, Li Zhixian walked out quickly with his entourage, and when he saw Gong You, he didn't be polite, and asked with a face: "Lord Gong!" What about food! Has the Holy Rice arrived? ”
Li Zhixian is a man who is nearly thirty years old, with a white face and beard, with good facial features, thick eyebrows and thick black eyebrows, and he looks straight.
Gong You coughed and said, "Let's go in first." ”
Li Zhixian found that there were still people on the side, touched his nose a little embarrassed, and said, "It's rude." It's really too anxious to lose your temper, let's go inside. ”
Xiao Xiao smiled and waved his hand to show that it was okay, and then took Qin Yining and his entourage into the house.
Gong You then introduced: "Li Zhixian, this is the disaster relief ambassador sent by the saint, the scholar of Wuyingdian, Prince Zhongshun. ”
Although this introduction is comprehensive, it is also a little nondescript.
But as soon as Li Zhixian heard this, his eyes lit up, and he hurriedly saluted the owl: "It turned out to be the prince!" It's really rude, it's rude. ”
Xiao Xiao returned the salute with a smile and said, "There are many disaster victims in this king's courtyard? Li Zhixian has been placing them in the courtyard? ”
"Yes, their house is destroyed, and I am afraid that they will get close to the ruins and catch some kind of disease, which will make people fall under their noses. It's just that the prince, hasn't the holy rice arrived yet? I opened a soup kitchen, and even the thinnest gruel couldn't last long. ”
"The king knows this. But this king is also ordered to be in danger, and the holy disaster relief money and food must have to be delayed for a while. ”
As soon as Xiao Xiao finished speaking, Li Zhixian frowned aggrievedly.
It was Gong You who pulled people aside, and told him what he had done after he came, as well as how much he had donated.
