Murong Zhao looked at these officials, the official uniforms on their bodies were all dirty, all of them were dark and green under their eyes, most of them were haggard with yellow faces and thin muscles, some of them unconsciously showed panic on their faces, and some were heartbroken, as if they were silently sighing that Murong Zhao didn't know the price of firewood and rice.

This picture of worrying about the people doesn't look like it's pretending at all.

Hong Jun said: "We haven't been to Guijin Tower, and we know that a seat here is worth a lot." I can chew it in the porridge fields around Xincheng County for half a month. ”

Everyone echoed and said: "Yes, Your Highness Eleven, we are leading the emperor's errand, we don't have to accept your hospitality, we can still do our errand." ”

"Your Highness, my salt official has suffered the hardest, but the rice and grain should be allocated for a long time, I am afraid that there will be four more days, and I can only boil rice soup for the victims."

"Your Highness Eleventh, most of the rice transported to Fuyang is shoddy, and Weichen has appealed many times, but there is not even a response. Your Highness can entertain us small officials with sesame mung beans today, listen to the words of our people, how we came here and how to go back, and our hearts are also happy. ”

Murong Zhao saw that they were all anxious, and some officials talked about the local disaster, but their eyes were red, and they didn't feel sad, and said busily and modestly: "If you don't eat this meal, go back to Jinlou to take care of the banquet every day." I invited you here today because the owner of this house has some friendship with me, and he doesn't take a penny. Murong Zhao saw that everyone was a little indifferent, his face sank, and he personally invited Hong Jun and said: "I have a lot to ask Lord Hong, and I have to listen to everything you say, we can't stand here and say it." ”

These officials reluctantly entered the door of Guijin Building, but they all sat down, and the dishes were put on one plate after another, but everyone did not move their chopsticks, and they all talked about the disaster situation in the prefecture and county where Murong Zhao was located.

Although Dayan has a system of imperial examinations, most of the officials are officials who rely on grace. Most of the Jinshi who came up from the scientific examination were sent to the local government as small officials, and an official like Hong Jun, who had no way, might not have wandered around in the position of the county official for the rest of his life. Not to mention going to Beijing to see the emperor, it is extremely rare to see the prince.

These people are all in one place today, and when Murong Zhao personally feasted them, they all relied on their courage and reciprocated carefully.

Murong Zhao has sources, but there are many places in the five counties of Jiangnan that have been affected, and he can't take care of them all. Now that the careful audience has said it again, they are even more angry that the high-ranking officials in the five counties in the south of the Yangtze River are colluding and deceiving their superiors and subordinates.

Murong Zhao's eyes were heavy, and he got up and bowed deeply to the officials first, "I want to have a banquet for you in Guijin Mansion today, and I have another layer of ideas." Everyone who is honest and loves the people, they are all clean and clean, but I am afraid that I will not want to enter this Guijin Building for a meal in this life. I hope this is the first and last time in my life. ”

Murong Zhao's words were very heavy, but he was not wrong at all.

A place like Guijin Lou is not a place they can go. Unless there is a hairpin family, a family of wealth and nobility for generations, it is not a corrupt official and corrupt official, forming a party for personal gain.

When the crowd heard this, they couldn't help but fall silent. Murong Zhao's eyes couldn't help but turn a little red, and he silently drank three more glasses of wine.

"I don't have to explain the matter of helping the victims, you must also take care of it. I won't talk about this, just two things, one is, please take care of your health. The second is that if there is any deception in the states, prefectures, and counties, you can go directly to the post house and report it to me in person. Every day, morning or night, I will not delay a moment when it comes to matters related to the relief of the victims. Murong Zhao's voice was not high, but every word was like a nail falling to the ground, sonorous and loud.

The officials of the Han clan said that their blood was boiling.

After this meal is finished, the shopkeeper of the Jin Building will come to settle the money with An Liang. An Liang said to Murong Zhao with a bitter face: "Your Highness, we really don't give a penny." ”

Murong Zhao smiled meaningfully, "You told him what I taught you, he would never dare to ask for your silver." ”

An Liang had no choice but to go to the big shopkeeper of Guijin Building, and said: "His Royal Highness Eleventh said that your big boss and the young proprietor of the He family gave him this meal in vain, if you don't believe it, go and ask Mr. Chu." When it was over, An Liang was a little uneasy, and added: "Besides, we live in a post house, and we will lose you the money for a meal, aren't you afraid that you will come to the door." ”

The big shopkeeper of Guijin Lou listened to him and could tell the young proprietor of the He family and Chu Xuwen, although he was skeptical, he knew that the eleventh prince was running away, and the monk couldn't run away from the temple. Naturally, he didn't dare to entangle with An Liang, and said generously, "I am very good at being a man, and let An Liang go."

Out of the door of Guijin Tower, Murong Zhao got on the horse and went all the way back to the post house.

Tan Fujia also rode a horse and followed him, and said with a smile: "What His Highness just said moved the humble and almost cried. If you think of these officials, you must be grateful. Although these people are of little use at the moment, they can ...... in the future."

Without waiting for him to finish speaking, Murong Zhao smiled heartily and said slowly: "When I said this, I really didn't think about it so much. These people, who come from a hard background, naturally know the people's sufferings best. I'm not complimenting them, but they deserve it. ”

Tan Fujia sighed at Murong Zhao's mind, and remembered that he didn't give any silver to Guijin Lou after eating, so he must be the only one in the world. couldn't help but say: "Your Highness doesn't give silver, I don't know if the shopkeeper who returns to Jinlou will sue the Yuguo Mansion in the Eastern Capital, Yang Qiniang." ”

Murong Zhao thought that he had been away from Luoyang for a long time, and he didn't know what interesting things Yang Qiqi had done when he was trapped in the Yuguo Mansion. He smiled slightly, "This kind of thing, as the number one boss behind the scenes, you can't not know anything about it." ”

Tan Fujia sighed: "Miss Yang Qi really has some ability, this Guijin Lou first appeared on the ground three years ago, and in such a short period of time, there are so many semicolons in Dayan. ”

Murong Zhao was a little unimpressed, "I also owe it to the eldest and second disciples under Mr. Qingping." The battle of Guijinlou is still accumulated by the He family for several generations of business. ”

Tan Fujia sighed with a smile: "These disciples of Mr. Shan Chong Qingping are willing to spare no effort to help Yang Qi, and they are also capable. According to the humble position, if His Royal Highness has to marry a girl from the Chen family as the princess in the future, it is not as suitable as Miss Yang Qi. ”

Murong Zhao's thick eyebrows raised slightly, as if he was listening to Fu Jia's words, and as if he was thinking about something else. After a while, I saw him say slowly: "The queen mother has already made up her mind, besides, Yang Qi's fat meat, I don't know how many people are worried about it, and Murong Xi is stirring up all day long, why should I follow the mixture and make myself uncomfortable?" ”

"Your Highness the Thirteenth?" Tan Fujia pursed his lips and sighed: "Isn't this a pearl covered with dust!" ”

Murong Zhao frowned and shook his head with a smile, "None of us have anything to do with it, in the end, whoever I marry is the same." As for who Yang Qi girl marries, it depends on the meaning of the Yang family. We are all people who can't help ourselves, and it's useless to talk about it. Murong Zhao finished speaking, tightened the reins, and said: "Draw out sixty percent of our people, and plug in all places where disaster victims are likely to make trouble." ”

Tan Fujia nodded hurriedly in response, but he thought in his heart what Murong Zhao had just said that marrying anyone would be the same. Thinking of the female official who followed Murong Zhao and was called Ah Yao every day, Tan Fujia couldn't help but shake his head secretly, in addition to being beautiful, what else is there to love about this Ah Yao?

Let's say that in the Yuguo Mansion in Luoyang, the eastern capital, he has been busy mourning for Xinyang for several days.

When Mrs. Li and Mrs. Chu heard about the trip to the lake during the Shangyuan Festival, they immediately asked the people in the sewing room to make two more new clothes for the third girl, the fourth girl, the fifth girl, and Yang Qiqi.

The house and the outside are busy, Mrs. Chu is in charge of the funeral, and Mrs. Li personally goes to choose the patterns and jewelry for Yang Yuyan. After the second girl made trouble a few times, she was punished and grounded by Mrs. Chu, and she never left her room again. Yang Qiqi entered the palace twice, and the days passed leisurely and quickly.

On the eighth day after Chu Xuwen left Luoyang, Yang Qiqi received a message from Yuhang County, and the person who came to deliver the message was Qiu Xu, the second manager of the department who followed Chu Xuwen to the department. Chu Xuwen was afraid that there would be a mistake in the letter, so he personally sent him back and forth.

Mr. Chu went to Ulsan first, and Mr. Pei heard that opening a porridge field was such a good thing to accumulate virtue and blessings, so he sent two people on the mountain to go with Mr. Chu. According to the girl's instructions, we didn't go to Yuhang County. Wait for He Gongzi to leave Yuhang for three days before entering the city. Who knew that as soon as he entered Yuhang, he saw a lively ......" He said, and told Yang Qiqi what Murong Zhao said in front of the City God Temple, and how to appease the officials in Guijin Tower.

After hearing this, Yang Qiqi was also quite enthusiastic, and praised repeatedly: "He is really alert enough." As soon as I heard about the civil uprising, I came up with such a good method. ”

At this time, there were only bamboo branches in the house, and he said "Huh" and asked Yang Qiqi: "Girl, why did His Highness Eleventh still treat guests separately, beat the instructions together, and buy all the forbearance!" ”

"What does it mean to separate these officials with and without backgrounds? That's a knock on the mountain. Yang Qiqi explained to her with a smile: "Moreover, His Highness Eleventh did this, it looks like he was trying to beat the officials of the five counties in the south of the Yangtze River, but in fact, such a big battle, I am afraid that it is the people in Yuhang County who will be alarmed the most." In doing so, he told the victims of the five counties in the south of the Yangtze River that the officials sent by the imperial court to supervise the disaster relief were doing practical things, which was equivalent to giving the victims a dose of reassurance. With this layer of assurance, who will rebel against serious ordinary people? ”

Zhuzhi didn't seem to understand, "Listening to the girl say this, His Highness Eleventh is really amazing." ”

Yang Qiqi thought to himself, of course. Even if there was a civil uprising in his previous life, didn't Murong Zhao finish this errand? She reminded one more thing, she didn't want the Seven Princes and others to profit from it. is also a pity for the people of Jiangnan, who don't want Murong Zhao to stop being ruthless and killing people without blinking.

Qiu Xu nodded again and again, and said, "The girl is right, His Royal Highness the Eleventh Day distributed the 20,000 stone grain sent by He Gongzi to Yanguan and Fuyang counties. Songs spread among the victims in several places, praising His Highness Eleven for doing practical things and being a living Bodhisattva. ”

Yang Qiqi smiled, "This is someone deliberately guiding." ”

When Qiu Xu said this, he couldn't help but lower his head and whispered: "Seventh girl, His Highness Eleventh also had a meal in the semicolon of our Yuhang Guijin Building. ”

Yang Qiqi said that he was thirsty and just took a sip of tea. Hearing this, I almost spit out the tea in my mouth.

"Why did he put on a score, why did he eat us for nothing? The shopkeeper of the Yuhang branch is just watching it dryly? ”
