Chapter 493: It's the Water Bandits

"She was widowed at an early age, and she had no children and no daughters...

"Right now, it seems that I can only come to stay here for a while, my former sister."

Speaking of these, Yin Ping couldn't help but feel a little sad.

She was full of sadness, but she still didn't forget to pay attention to her cousin: "Sister Aqi, natural disasters can't be hidden, since things have happened, it won't help to miss the sad things in the past."

"You can live in the General's Mansion and treat this place as your home, and when everything is calm outside, you will think about going home."

"Yes, Aunt Chu will settle down in the General's Mansion first." Miss Chi Er also followed to speak out to convince her.

During that time, this Aunt Chu got along very well with everyone in Chi Mansion.

She liked this aunt very much, and naturally expected her to stay.

Not only her, but also Miss Chisan: "Actually, if there is no one else in Aunt Chu's family, it is not impossible to live in Kyoto." You are A-Niang's best playmate when she was a teenager, and if you can stay, A-Niang will definitely be happy.

"And in this way, you can have a companion in the future."

Everyone, every word you say to me is a word of comfort.

Chu Qi listened, and his mood improved a lot: "Ah Ping, thank you... If it weren't for you, I really don't know how to spend this day. ”

"It's okay, let's support each other in the future, and it will be fine..."

When everyone comforted Chu Qi, most of them paid attention to herself.

When Yan Chujing heard that she had fled from Pingxing, he immediately thought of asking her about the situation in Pingxing.

When her mood was almost calm, he carefully opened his mouth and asked, "I just heard that Aunt Chu is from Pingxing?" I shouldn't have asked about the disaster in your family, but the situation in Pingxing is very important to me.

"I don't know... Can Aunt Chu tell me some specific information?

"In this way, it should be able to help some disaster relief arrangements in the future."

"Absolutely." Hearing that the emperor was concerned about the disaster in her hometown, Chu Qi naturally would not shirk it, and after a little thought, she directly told Yu Yan Chujing everything she knew: "Actually, this flood did not come suddenly.

"It's rainy in the south of the Yangtze River, and there are often floods, so the locals know a little bit about floods.

"Before the rainy season, people are preparing to strengthen the river embankment to prevent the river embankment from breaking down and destroying the crops when it rains heavily.

"There is also a big river on the edge of my hometown of Qi County, which is a branch of the Luo River. Whenever the rainy season comes, the river will be aggravated by the rising water level of the river, and there is a possibility of bursting the embankment.

"So our county order went to the Xinzhou capital early in the morning, hoping that the magistrate could allocate the money so that we could strengthen the river embankment."

"But your hometown of Qi County was still hit by floods, not only the fertile land was destroyed, but even the houses and people were also affected... Come to think of it, is it because the repair and reinforcement of the river embankment has not been implemented? Is it because the state government has not allocated funds? ”

"No, Zhizhou is not embarrassed." Chu Qi shook his head and rejected Yan Chujing's guess.

After staring at her eyebrows for a moment, she said in a heavy tone: "It was the water bandits."

"Our Lord Zhizhou, although he can't be called a good official for a hundred years, he can be regarded as conscientious. As soon as the documents of the county order were gone, he compared the imperial court appropriations with the shares of previous years and distributed a share of money to our Qi County.

"But on the way to our Qi County, the silver encountered water bandits and was robbed by water bandits!"
