Li Zhixian, like Gong You, had some misunderstandings about Xiao Xiao's actions before because of the influence of his notoriety.

But now that he heard such an explanation, and then heard that the Xiao family, together with Qin Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites, was able to sell their property and donate it to the people in the disaster area to buy rice and grain, and also ordered that it should not be publicized, Li Zhixian's eyes were hot.

No one is a fool in the officialdom, and everyone has a scale in their hearts, and they donate silver, but they don't make a noise, and they don't mean to beat gongs and drums to announce the world at all.

Yang County is so close to the old capital, if Governor Gong didn't say it, he wouldn't know about it, let alone the emperor who was far away in the capital?

So at this time, Xiao Xiao was really just doing things for the people silently, not wanting to show merit, and willing to hide behind the scenes and pay silently.

This kind of approach is much stronger than some people who say that they want disaster relief, but they don't come for a long time, and they don't send rice!

Who wants to be willing to do such a thing to the detriment of themselves and others? What is the reason for the silent payment, everyone present knows it in their hearts.

Li Zhixian sniffed, and when he looked at Xiao Xiao and Qin Yining again, his expression was a little more solemn.

"Don't worry, the lower officials promise you that every penny you have will be used on the blade, and try to ensure that more ordinary people survive!"

Li Zhixian's voice was loud and thunderous. Enough to express his determination.

Xiao Xiao was infected by his emotions, and he was quite moved for a while, and said: "I believe that if we work together, we will definitely let more people live." ”

Gong Zhifu and Li Zhixian were enthusiastic, and they both nodded heavily: "Definitely!" ”

It was already dark, and everyone rested in the palace for the time being.

There are many mosquitoes, and he is worried that Qin Yining will be bitten by poisonous mosquitoes again and have a fever, so he hasn't slept much all night, and he has to get up from time to time to help Qin Yining catch mosquitoes and fan the wind.

In the early morning of the next day, Xiao Xiao was still refreshed, and others couldn't see the clue at all, Qin Yining served him for a better time, so he got up and accompanied Xiao Xiao to inspect outside.

The disaster in Yangyang County is slightly lighter than that of the old capital, perhaps because it is no longer the center of the earth's dragon turnover, and there are not many high-rise brick houses, so the number of casualties is much less.

They inspected the city, and found several large houses, the walls of which had been repaired, and even one that had raised the walls.

In this way, there is really a bit of a point of no silver three hundred taels here, and it is not difficult to guess that there must be food in their house.

Governor Gong asked Li Zhixian: "Is the grain of the Ding family and the Pei family still at that price?" ”

Li Zhixian nodded bitterly, "Not only did I refuse to reduce the price, I asked a few more times, and I even had the meaning of sitting on the ground and starting the price." ”

Governor Gong gritted his teeth and cursed in a low voice: "These dog thieves who are rich and unkind! They used to exploit the people like this in Dayan, and now they dare to eat the flesh and blood of the people! ”

"I think they just want to open their mouths with the lion of the government and make a fortune in a national disaster! If the government can't come up with this money, they will have reason to say that the Holy One is reluctant to give the people food! There was anger in his deep voice, and it was not difficult to see his anger from the green tendons that burst into his forehead.

"The prince analyzed. These people are rich and unkind, and they are not worthy of being human at all, so we should teach them a hard lesson! "Li Zhixian is young and impulsive.

Xiao Xiao was domineering and hearty, and at this time, his thoughts coincided with Li Zhixian, and he said in a deep voice: "Don't worry, this king will go and talk to them when he turns around." ”

He conquered the battlefield, and if he was really serious, he could shock people with just one sharp eye.

Seeing this, Li Zhixian and Gong Zhifu were a little more sure in their hearts, as long as they were willing to make sincere efforts, they believed that the people's food problem could always be solved.

Both of them had a feeling of having a backbone after they arrived.

When Xiao Xiao, Governor Gong, and Li Zhixian took Master Lu and others to inspect, Qin Yining also took the people around him to act alone, looking around the city for signals that the Qingtian Alliance might leave behind.

Since the saint said that the treasure might be in Yangyang, if the treasure was not swallowed by the silver-faced spies, then the people of the Blue Sky Alliance would definitely handle it.

If the people of the Qingtian Alliance completely betrayed her, and they didn't care that they would face Qin Yining and Xiao Xiao's crazy revenge in the future, then it would be another matter, otherwise the Qingtian Alliance would definitely contact her.

Qin Yining and his party acted separately, and finally found the hints left by the three Qingtian Alliances.

"Madam, you see, the code of these locations is connected to mean that you want to go to the mountains to the north. It's the mountain we passed by yesterday. ”

Qin Yining nodded and said, "Destroy all the markers, we just need to know in our hearts." ”

"Yes." Xiao Man immediately received the order and quietly destroyed all the marks.

Jiyun and Bingtang whispered, "Madam, are you going to go?" ”

Bingtang anxiously persuaded him: "Madame, it's better not to go, they changed their minds temporarily, and they don't tell you where they got their things, and now they suddenly come out and want to lead you to this kind of broken mountain road with worrying road conditions, they don't have a good heart at all!" ”

"Yes, ma'am, I find it suspicious too." Da Han also said, "You better be careful and make a decision after discussing with the master." Don't go alone, but be fooled. ”

Qin Yining knew their good intentions, and she also felt that this matter was not something she could solve alone.

After the inspection that day, Qin Yining returned to the mansion and hid in the room with Xiao Xiao to whisper.

Xiao Xiao put his arms around Qin Yining's waist, pillowed his chin on her shoulder, and whispered in her ear: "Did you really find the mark?" ”

"yes, but I didn't dare to go alone." Qin Yining also tilted his head and whispered in his ear: "I don't think things are that simple. ”

"Good thing you didn't go. Today I got a secret report from the capital. Didn't I leave someone with my father-in-law? This news was ordered by his father-in-law to be sent to him. ”

Xiao Xiao's voice was lowered, and the heat sprayed on Qin Yining's ears, "The Holy Lord has come to Yang County secretly." Our actions are under surveillance, and if we act rashly, I am afraid that sooner or later we will have to let the Holy God know, and then we will be at a loss for words. ”

Qin Yining stiffened when he heard this, and he couldn't help but be afraid.

Fortunately, she has now developed the habit of relying on the owl, and she likes to discuss and act with the owl in case of trouble, if she still makes her own decisions as before, I am afraid that this time she will really capsize in the gutter, and bring the tired owl, and it is possible that the people of the Qingtian Alliance will also be exposed, and even more on the two families in the capital.

"It's a good thing I didn't go." Qin Yining let out a long breath.

"yes." Xiao Xiao kissed her forehead and said, "From now on, we just have to concentrate on disaster relief, don't worry about the treasure and the contact of the Qingtian Alliance, and we can't show any horses and feet in our actions, otherwise our family in the capital will be in danger." ”

Cold sweat broke out on Qin Yining's back, and he nodded hurriedly.
