Chapter 180: Striking the Grass and Startling the Snake

"That's why you pay attention!" Wang said: "You are a woman, be reserved, pay attention to your reputation!" Even if you have this mind, it can't seem to be rushed. ”

"Eniang, I, can't I go if I don't go in the future!" Zhao Furong blushed.

Mr. Zhao frowned on the side and said, "Did you say that about your daughter!" Our two families have always been close. The children also grew up together. Now that Mingxuan and Tongtong are not at home, it is also appropriate for Furong to visit her sister-in-law. ”

"Do you know that there's gossip out there now!" Wang glared at Mr. Zhao again, and said, "There are many people in Yangzhou City who want Ming Xuan to be their son-in-law!" Now the sister-in-law is rejecting the matchmaker. Otherwise, the threshold can be broken! You look, when Mingxuan Chunyu comes back next year, there will be more people who talk about matchmaking! So, let's not go up. Even if you have this thought, wait for Mingxuan to come back next year, and let's come back again! ”

"Who is so full and has nothing to do and gossip!" Zhao Zongbing said with a calm face: "You women and Taoists are the east and the west are all the long. It was originally fine, but it was a bit of a rout! ”

"Hey, just talk about things, what kind of women are talking about people!" Wang was not happy to listen to it, and said: "Anyway, just one word, in the future, Furong is not allowed to go to the garrison mansion alone!" Unless I'm with you. ”

"Yes, my daughter knows." Zhao Furong hurriedly responded. She didn't want her own Ama and E-Niang to quarrel over this.

"It's fine." Mr. Zhao also nodded and said: "Furong is older, follow your mother to learn how to take care of the house at home, so as to save yourself from being looked down upon by your in-laws in the future." ”

"Yes." The flush on Zhao Furong's face did not subside.

Since returning from defeat, Ama and Eniang have been showing her husband's family. It's just that when I saw it now, I didn't pick a favorite.

She Ama and Eniang take a fancy to it, and people look down on their family a little. People like their family, but she Ama and Eniang can't like it. As a result, there are some high and low.

Let's talk about the prince and the eighth master. The two went to the prefect of Jinan together.

Because he had already received a letter from the county order, the prefect of Jinan was ready and did not panic about the arrival of the two. When it comes to disaster relief, it is also the first thing to say.

"The crown prince and the eighth master, because of the wide range of disasters, the statistics made by Weichen have not yet been collected. In general, there are three aspects. First, the damaged houses should be registered so that they can be repaired uniformly, or directly subsidize the silver; second, how many people are currently homeless, so that daily rations can be distributed according to the number of people, and temporary settlements will be built so that they will not sleep on the streets; The third is to count the damaged fields to get an overview of next year's harvest. ”

"Hearing what the prefect said, the various matters of disaster relief are carried out in an orderly manner." Prince Road.

These are also the rules that have been followed over the years. Wechen just adjusted it in a timely manner according to the disaster situation this time. The prefect of Jinan said modestly.

"But as far as I know, it seems that your current states and counties are not implementing this." Prince Road.

"It stands to reason that the order has been passed down a long time ago. It's about bad weather, and some remote states and counties haven't received the order yet. The prefect of Jinan explained.

"Huh! Are you really blind when you and your eighth brother come all the way? The prince suddenly sneered, his voice raised a few points, and said, "Lone will give you another chance, what is the situation now!" If you don't want to tell the truth, this prefect, you don't want to do it! ”

"Weichen is telling the truth in every word, and please ask the prince and the eighth master to see clearly!" The prefect of Jinan did not change his words at all, and still insisted.

"Good!" The prince suddenly showed a smile and said, "If what you say is true, then I ask you, why can you see a large number of disaster victims homeless and abandoned in the wilderness when you enter the territory of SD?" Why did Lone ask a random person and say that he didn't get rations from the imperial court? Some states and counties still have porridge sheds set up by government offices, and some don't even have porridge sheds! That's what you're talking about: disaster relief? ”

The prince thought that when he said this, the prefect of Jinan would be flustered. Who knew that he said calmly: "Weichen really did his best!" I am afraid that some of the following states and counties have limited financial resources, so they cannot provide relief to more victims. ”

"What about the silver grain allocated by the imperial court?" The prince asked.

"Wechen hasn't been issued yet." The prefect of Jinan replied.

"Why?" The prince asked again.

"Wechen must wait for the data from all over the place to come up, and then dial it according to the actual situation of each place." The prefect of Jinan replied.

This is reasonable, and the prince can't refute it for a while. I was choked.

The eighth master said at this time: "As far as I know, last year's wind and rain were smooth, and the harvest was good in various places. SD's harvest was 3 percent more than usual. In addition, due to the flood three years ago, Huang Ama issued a decree to exempt him from taxes for three years. Although this year's snow disaster is big, the imperial court has already made you prepare in advance. It stands to reason that even if the silver and grain allocated by the imperial court have not yet arrived, there should not be so many victims who have not been relieved and resettled! ”

This made the prefect of Jinan's eyes flash, and he hurriedly said: "Although the harvest in the past two years is okay, the flood three years ago also suffered heavy losses, but it has just been relieved." The situation is not as optimistic as the eighth master said. ”

"Oh? Really? Does the prefect want me to report to you all the harvest and taxes you have been exempted from for the past three years? The eighth master said coldly.

At this time, the prefect of Jinan's face showed a slightly flustered look, and his forehead began to sweat.

The prince glanced at the eighth master, but he didn't expect him to say this.

"I advise the prefect to think clearly before replying! Some wealth can be made, and some wealth will be lost! The eighth master said again.

"What Weichen said is true." The prefect of Jinan said hard. At this time, even if he wanted to tell the truth, he couldn't say it. At this point, there is no turning back.

Seeing that he was still holding on, the eighth master didn't bother to talk nonsense anymore. These corrupt officials don't shed tears when they don't see their coffins.

The prince also saw this, and said with a sneer: "Since this is the case, then the prefect should not be afraid to check here alone." Tomorrow, you will accompany Gu and Eighth Brother to take a good look at the disaster relief situation in your area. ”

"Yes, Weichen will accompany you." The prefect of Jinan was busy.

That night, the prince and the eighth master did not accept the invitation of the prefect of Jinan to live in the prefect's mansion, but found an inn to rest.

After dinner in the evening, the two of them discussed in the room.

"Eighth brother, this prefect doesn't have oil and salt, it seems that we still have to investigate secretly." Prince Road.

"It's good to be scared today. Just to see what he does. "The eighth master said.

"Well, let's have a few guards go and have a look tonight." The prince nodded.

"Hmm." The eighth master nodded in agreement.
