Chapter 272: Please

Palace.

Around the main hall, there is not a single tall tree to be seen, and as far as the eye can see, the walls on all sides can be seen. The reason for this design was for security reasons, so that no Assassins could hide in the shadows. On the four sides of the main hall, the ten-person-wide corridor is all made of white jade, which is white and flawless in the autumn colors.

Emperor Qingfeng called Zhou Jinxuan.

"Zhou Aiqing, Lin Lao has been called back by me, and you will be responsible for the disaster relief he is responsible for in the future."

Isn't this asking Zhou Jinxuan to clean up the mess? Zhou Jinxuan smiled and declined, saying that he was not in good health.

Emperor Qingfeng's eyebrows furrowed.

Also, Zhou Jinxuan took the initiative to ask Ying to go to disaster relief, but as a result, Emperor Qingfeng didn't let him go, and asked Lin Lao to go instead of him.

Now it's okay, Lin Lao failed, but he thought of him. Anyone who changes will be unhappy.

"Wu Guogong, although this Lin Lonely was chosen by me, didn't I want to give him a chance to exercise? Who knows that he doesn't know how to cherish it at all. I originally thought that if Lin Lonely couldn't do it, the person with the most ability to clean up the mess would be Wu Guogong. Isn't this coming for you? If you go over once, you can be regarded as doing your duty for the people. "Emperor Qingfeng's words are particularly good, and he really deserves to be the emperor's eloquence.

Zhou Jinxuan then knelt down: "Minister, take the order." ”

So, Zhou Jinxuan set off overnight, and for the sake of the people, he didn't dare to stay for a moment.

Zhou Jinxuan had been very concerned about disaster relief before, and when he learned that Lin Lone's disaster relief had not been done well, he originally wanted to go over, and he deliberately shirked in front of the emperor, but he wanted Emperor Qingfeng to use his determination. Zhou Jinxuan quickly rushed to the flood-stricken place.

Some uninformed local officials saw that Zhou Jinxuan was old, and thought that maybe there was no one in the court who was willing to do this drudgery, so they sent an old man casually and didn't pay much attention to it.

When they saw that Zhou Jinxuan only brought a dozen or so domestic servants, they thought that Zhou Jinxuan had no background, and originally organized a group of local officials to vacuum Zhou Jinxuan, but it was also canceled later.

On Zhou Jinxuan's side, he has always disliked the flattery in officialdom, but now he is less clichéd, and he is clean.

After a simple placement, Zhou Jinxuan rushed to the flood hazard as soon as possible for an in-depth investigation.

As far as the eye can see, there is a depression, and although it has been governed for a while, the situation seems to be worse than before the governance.

A lot of inferior materials were placed haphazardly, blocking the traffic arteries, and some slightly better materials were taken away by people, leaving only some empty sacks.

In addition, Zhou Jinxuan also visited the people affected by the disaster, and heard the most true voice in the hearts of the people, and the people expressed their dissatisfaction with the imperial court, and even some people, in order to express their dissatisfaction, went to do the business of stealing and robbing while the fire was burning.

"Lord Guogong, you have been tired for several days, so let's rest first." The servant persuaded hard, because he followed Zhou Jinxuan everywhere, and the servant wore out a pair of shoes.

"So many people, hungry and cold waiting for me, how can I rest." Zhou Jinxuan was righteous, and as soon as his words fell, there was a sudden commotion outside the door, and a group of local officials came to visit with a large number of gifts.

"Lord Guogong, you don't remember the villain, you have no eyes under it, and you are neglected!" A magistrate hunched up, his eyes smiling into a line, revealing a gold tooth.

"Yes, I didn't expect Lord Guogong to visit in disguise, it's really sluggish!"

Zhou Jinxuan didn't have time to chat with this group of people, since these people were automatically sent to the door, he simply took them to visit with him.

Along the way, Zhou Jinxuan looked righteous and went straight to the house of the bribed vendor, while the local officials who followed him were all like frightened birds.

They didn't expect that in just a few days, Zhou Jinxuan would find out all the rich people behind them.

"Either take out the corrupt silver taels, or go to jail and squat." Zhou Jinxuan did not deal with these bribery dealers by force, but used the means of surrendering without a fight to regain a large amount of money, even more than the imperial court allocated it.

The reason for doing this is that Zhou Jinxuan really needs silver taels for disaster relief, and it is difficult to ask the emperor for it. Second, these bribery dealers are all greedy for life and afraid of death, and if they can pay to save their lives, they will definitely cooperate with each other, and they will not resist stubbornly.

In this way, Zhou Jinxuan gathered a large amount of silver taels, and there was a solid foundation for disaster relief.

The people are suffering and there is no time to delay, Zhou Jinxuan asked people to purchase food as soon as possible, and these candidates turned out to be the group of local officials in front of him.

The servants couldn't understand it, and the local officials were even more shocked.

It stands to reason that according to the law, Zhou Jinxuan can completely correct them on the spot, but now, no one can understand Zhou Jinxuan's move.

"You are limited to three days to raise a hundred stones of grain, and within seven days, another hundred stones." Zhou Jinxuan's face was flat, but every word was loud, like a sharp sword piercing the heart, stabbing every local official.

On the other side, Zhou Jinxuan personally supervised and spent more time on reinforcing the embankment.

The embankment project is time-consuming and labor-intensive, but it is the foundation of Anmin, and Zhou Jinxuan attaches great importance to it, and even sleeps by the embankment at night to supervise the work.

Two days later, when Zhou Jinxuan was supervising the work, the local officials came to report with a full 100 stone of grain.

"Lord Guogong, here is a hundred stones of grain, please check it." The local officials were trembling, but their eyes were firm. For it is indeed a good grain, a hundred stones.

"Okay, let's distribute it to the people from house to house." Zhou Jinxuan didn't even look at it, and sent the group of magistrates and food away.

This made this group of local officials even more confused, but they obediently went door-to-door to distribute grain.

Soon, under Zhou Jinxuan's governance, the people's lives have improved to a great extent, and even the previous group of local officials who ate and drank happily were like different people, and they all worked diligently for the people.

Palace.

The red walls are opposite, and the dark green roof is covered by a patch of autumn leaves. In the shade, thick moss, like a green carpet, is thickly covered at the base of the wall.

Not far away, by a pond, a yellow cat stared at itself in the reflection with round eyes. Suddenly, the cat's claws stretched out and made a ripple on the surface of the pool, and the yellow cat jumped away.

Xiao Guifei was helped and slowly sat down on a chair by the pond.

Lin Lao drooped his head, didn't dare to look at Xiao Guifei, and stood in front of Xiao Guifei with his hands down.

"This palace has worked so hard to find you a meritorious opportunity, I didn't expect you to be good, but it was wasted! It also upset your father. Concubine Xiao was extremely disappointed in Lin Lone, "This palace is smart, why did you give birth to such a stupid son as you!" ”
