Fortunately, Li Lao Er took the prince's token and went to the dock barracks to transfer another 200 wounded soldiers back.

The wounded soldiers drew their waist knives, and the bright blades were almost blinded under the sun, which also made people extremely frightened.

So, the ranks immediately took shape, and there were no more crowds and noises, even fights.

I have to say that at any time, a big fist is a truth!

The prince changed into ordinary clothes, and took on the appearance of a steward, and now he walked around in the crowd.

Gonggong Feng was sweating hotly, and quietly followed behind him, wanting to step forward to persuade the prince to rest, but he was afraid of exposing the identity of the master.

Fortunately, Li Lao Er came over and invited the prince to talk in the temporary shed.

"Your Highness, it's too busy today, so you might as well go back to the palace. Tomorrow when everything is arranged, you can come and appease the people. ”

The crown prince retreated half a step, half hidden behind Li Lao Er, and responded, "Uncle, don't worry, no one knows that I am out of the palace, and I am safe."

"It's best to register the displaced people in this way, so that it is convenient to arrange the follow-up return to their hometowns. It's just that the food and housing of 10,000 people is not a trivial matter, and it is not enough to rely on the manpower of the Relief Department. ”

Li Lao Er said with a smile, "Don't worry, prince, I have found a helper, and it is absolutely reliable." ”

The prince still has to inquire, and a large group of people has already come in the distance.

More than 200 villagers from Shajintan rushed to the scene in horse-drawn carriages, pulling iron pots, clay pots, wooden barrels, and the like.

The old village chief was tired of walking, his face was flushed, and he was the first to come to Li Laoer, but when he saw the prince behind him, he was even more excited.

Li Lao Er was afraid that he would reveal the identity of the prince, so he preemptively beckoned, "Uncle Village, is this bringing all the people in the village?" ”

The village chief waved his hand and said with a smile, "Don't worry, uncle, there are people left at home to take care of the house." I'm afraid that there won't be enough manpower, so they asked for dozens more people to find Lao Jing. Lao Jing said that there is no work at home. If it's not enough, go back and shout again. ”

Li Lao Er nodded and instructed, "Uncle the village chief has worked hard for you, hurry up and build the shed, light a fire to boil water and make porridge." These people have been hungry for a long time, so let them eat their stomachs first, and then everything can be arranged. ”

"Okay, uncle, don't worry, just leave it to me Zhang Luo." The village chief also knew that it was not good to talk to the prince, so he nodded quietly, and hurried to tell the villagers to unload the car and work.

The crowd quickly unloaded the truck, selected ten places and began to build the shed.

It's not a big project because it's easy to work.

It was just digging pits and burying pillars, nailing purlins, and putting up thick straw curtains to make roofs.

Then quickly stack the green bricks and put a large iron pot on the shelf.

The carriage had unloaded its stuff and was already pulling buckets to fetch water again.

When you have to pull back the water, pour it into the pot with a bang, light the firewood, and the green smoke will come out.

Not far away, the registered homeless people almost had their eyes looking through the shed.

No promises are worth believing in them.

Only this smoking stove is the hope of survival!

It's the most affordable thing in the world!

However, in an hour, the displaced people had not finished registering, and the cornmeal porridge had already been boiled.

Golden brown porridge in a large pot with chopped greens and even sprinkled with chopped green onions and salt.

It's not delicious, but the fragrance wafts out.

The stomach of the homeless people has long been howling, and they have completely rebelled.

Seeing this, Li Lao Er asked the old people of the Relief Department to knock on the copper basin and shout again.

"It's the first meal, you can eat it first without a stick! But if someone makes trouble, they will be kicked out immediately, and they will starve to death in the future, and they will not even want to eat a bite! ”

The homeless people immediately flocked to the porridge shack, and they lined up quickly, even if they pushed and scolded, they didn't dare to raise their voices.

Soon, the porridge was distributed.

The homeless people held the bowls, and without waiting for a few steps to take them, they sucked them up, and they refused to stop grinning their hot teeth......

The prince couldn't help but sigh, and said to Li Lao Er in a low voice, "It is said that Tianwu is now a peaceful and prosperous era, and the country is rich and the people are strong, but the reality is so vulnerable.

"It's just a year of drought, and the people are in such a state of distress. There are also those state officials, who hold high salaries, sing praises and virtues are good hands, but when they really do practical things for the people, they all become turtles with shrunken heads. ”

These words are not elegant, and it is obvious that the prince is angry.

If it was in front of the emperor and courtiers, Li Lao Er would definitely not respond.

But in the face of the prince who grew up in Broken Gold Beach since he was a child, he is also half of his own family.

He said, "The prince doesn't have to be discouraged, it is not easy for half of the country south of the Yangtze River to support all the people of Tianwu, especially the northern expedition every year, and the military food is also consumed a lot." Therefore, Tianwu looks rich, but in fact, the foundation is still empty.

"When the northern expedition is over, the rivers and mountains are recovered, and grain is planted in Jiangnan and Jiangbei, and it will only take one year to relieve the vitality.

"As for those officials who do not fulfill their responsibilities, the emperor is benevolent and unwilling to be harsh. The prince can watch slowly, and one day you will be able to dispose of it as you wish. ”

The prince was stunned, then smiled and nodded solemnly.

At the end, he remembered something and said, "By the way, Uncle don't worry about Jiaren, although Fengshan was attacked by the Maitreya Sect, Jiaren responded in time and had no losses."

"And the Maitreya Sect deliberately came to the new capital, and there was no time to take care of Fengshan. Immediately, my father will also order the southwest border pass to dispatch people and horses to clear the Maitreya Sect, and the matter will soon be calmed down. ”

Li Lao Er naturally knew that his son was fine, after all, the herald who went to Xindu to send the herald also went to the Earl's Palace.

But when the prince said this, he still had to appreciate it.

As soon as he was about to thank him, Zheng He came to find it, and it turned out that a new batch of grain had been delivered......

Jiayin and her grandmother came out of the palace "crying", only to know that the second uncle had taken on such a big errand, and Mr. Wen would also leave Kyoto early tomorrow morning.

Mrs. Li was taken aback and asked, "Why did you leave Beijing at this time?" Didn't you say that Maitreya was making a lot of trouble, would it be dangerous? ”

Mr. Wen hurriedly responded, "Auntie, don't worry, the Maitreya Sect has just begun to bewitch the people, and there are not many followers, so it will not be a climate." Besides, the state capital I went to was near Fengshan, and I happened to go to see Jiaren.

"The first time he became an official, he was a parent of a common people, and he encountered a disaster year, I am afraid that he has no bottom in his heart, so I will give him a strong courage."

Someone supported her grandson, and of course Mrs. Li was happy.

But she still said, "Jinrou is not at home, can you bring enough clothes and supplies?" And don't lack manpower protection on the road, what if there are mountain bandits who can't open their eyes to block the road! Hurry up and go to Dayong again, and ask a few veterans to go out with you. ”

Jiayin also said, "I'll go and sort out some standing medicines for Mr., as for the guards, Uncle Dayong is not familiar with sending people from there, so it's better to choose a few from the second village."

"Sir, don't shirk, when you go out, safety is the top priority in everything. My aunt and the child are still waiting for my husband to reunite in Quanzhou! ”

Mr. Wen couldn't refuse, so he could only nod.

Soon, Mrs. Li and Jiayin gathered another bag of clothes and supplies, and the ten veterans of the second village also rushed forward after the city gate was closed.

Li Lao Er stayed outside the city and lived directly in a grass hut, so that he could deal with it at any time.

It just so happened that early the next morning, he saw off Mr. Wen.

In the Ten Mile Pavilion, because all the imperial histories have to go south, relatives and friends come to see them off, and it is crowded here.

Now the Maitreya religion outside is in turmoil, and there are homeless people everywhere, and everyone knows about the new capital.

Going out of Beijing at this time is almost the same as looking for death.
