Jingshi, northern suburbs.

Jia Lian was somewhat uneasy because he listened to Jia Zheng's persuasion yesterday and mentioned that the imperial court's harsh government had caused the people in the northwest to disperse. Therefore, he left his official duties early this morning and inspected the outer wall with Wu Yong, accompanied by officials such as Shuntianfu Yin and the soldiers and horses of the Five Cities.

In recent years, he has been in charge of the temple, and he has not been to the outer city for a long time.

The more you wait and see, the more frightening it becomes.

As far as the eye can see, the countryside is full of chaotic tents, shanty, and yellow-skinned people wandering at the foot of the city wall.

This is outside, and there are people who are crowded into the city to survive, and there are not even tents for shelter. Seven or eight people in the southeast were brought out of the land temple by the temple, and after a few people washed and excreted on the spot, the old and young women and children begged along the street, and the men rolled up their trousers and didn't know what to do.

Because he saw that there was an official on the city tower, inside and outside the wall, the nearby homeless people couldn't help but show sadness on their faces, and their voices of mourning were not stopped.

"Why is that?"

Wu Yong opened his eyes in surprise for a while, turned around, and couldn't help but shake his head and sigh.

That Shuntianfu Yin arched his hand and replied: "My lord is benevolent, but all the people here are also Diao, and they don't know the emperor's grace, so there should be this report." If you want to be in Haiyan Heqing today, these people do not keep their duty, they abscond here for the taxes of one family, and they are unable to go back, so they disturb the order of the capital all day long, although it is pitiful, it should be hateful!"

In recent years, Wu Yong has seen a lot of praise from hundreds of officials, so he waved his hand and smiled, not impressed, and only looked at Jia Lian's complexion.

Jia Lian looked at the city tower and muttered for a long time, and suddenly opened his mouth: "Shuntianfu."

Shuntianfu Yin hurriedly came out and said, "Please also ask the heavenly official to command."

Jia Lian said: "The governor of Shaanxi and Gansu went to Shangshutai and said that there was a great drought in Shaanxi, and the imperial court imposed harsh policies and increased taxes, so that the people fled from the famine. What about him over there, right now that tens of thousands of displaced people are gathering in Beijing, how do you deal with it?"

Shuntianfu Yin said: "Heavenly official, the lower official has first asked the court and the central government for this matter, but according to the usual practice, the treasury is opened for disaster relief, and there are two soup kitchens in the morning and evening every day, and then the young and strong people are selected from each family to work for relief, and so on."

Jia Lian said: "There are so many people in the mess, are there any female criminals among them?"

Shuntianfu Yin replied: "I have sent all the internal inspections to patrol the outside to prevent chaos."

Jia Lian was speechless for a while, only looking at the homeless people kneeling at the foot of the wall and wailing, his eyebrows tightened.

Shuntianfu Yin was only afraid that the answer was wrong, and he was worried for a while, but he still lowered his head and didn't dare to get up.

Wu Yong waved his hand, retreated from the people who followed behind him, and then said to this Shuntianfu Yin: "There are tens of thousands of homeless people, dancing with mosquitoes all day long, which will inevitably give rise to epidemics, and it really needs to be taken care of by Shuntianfu. I think my predecessor was only a month in office because of this incident, I don't know how long can the prince be in office now?"

Shuntianfu Yin hurriedly said: "Please also ask for your advice, and the lower officials will be remembered in the five!"

Wu Yong didn't say much, waved his hand, and told this person to retreat first.

Shuntianfu Yin had no choice but to go back and stand far away from everyone.

Wu used this to find Jia Lian to bring up the matter, and his words were difficult to hide his urgency.

"You can't retreat from the army!"

Jia Lian turned around when he heard this.

Wu Yong said: "If it weren't for us to send troops in charge of the DPRK, how could Shi Guangzhu easily lead the Jingying Festival and dismiss the secretary of the Ministry of Advance Industry on the grounds that it was unfavorable? How can we make the generals of the frontier return to the center of the court, and make the emperor rely on us everywhere?"

This is a power technique, not a power technique.

Since the main soldier has risen and gained benefits, it is easy to get out, and Wu Xuexue has already seen it clearly.

Jia Lian couldn't help but shake his head when he heard this, and said in his mouth: "You don't need to say this, you can't retreat from the military affairs, the first emperor is in power and is like this, can't I be compared to him?" I have already made up my mind about the continuation of the war, and the ministers of the DPRK and China are dissatisfied, and they are all pressed for General Duan."

Wu Yong was so happy that he said yes again and again, and he was a lot more relieved now.

Seeing Jia Lian's sad face again, Wu Yong said: "As for these people outside the city, my brother doesn't say it, I see pity as well. It is not advisable to give soup porridge in Shuntianfu, and there is no plan in it

Thou shalt not deceive the corrupt officials who are above and below them, and do not care about life or death outside the city. If you want to rectify it, I am afraid that it will be easy to paralyze the Shuntianfu Yamen and not be able to govern. In this case, it is better to send another 'Qin Mission', not to enter the Shuntian Mansion and the Yamen, but only to chase the food for disaster relief to disperse, so as to do practical things."

Jia Lian pondered for a while, and also felt that this matter was reliable, and said, "Just ask Zhao Da and Zhao Er to go on a trip."

"These two... It's also available."

Wu bowed his head slightly.

The matter of resettlement of displaced people has to be done, and the court cannot relax even a little.

Looking at the officials who followed him again, Wu Yong had another idea.

Jia Lian saw that he had decided to provide disaster relief from the capital division, so he didn't stay longer, and immediately went down the city wall to the other side.

Seeing this, Shuntianfu Yin and the others quickly followed.

Wu Yong was half a position behind, and while going down the stairs, he whispered to Jia Lian for a while.

Jia Lian pondered for a moment, and then agreed.

"Suncheonfu."

Coming down to the foot of the city tower, he heard Jia Lian stop in front of him, and this Shuntianfu Yin was busy and came forward to listen to the lecture.

Jia Lian said: "The imperial court also has special affairs, and now that the displaced people are gathered, even if they are full, they will also cause chaos, and hunger will also cause chaos, so it is not wrong for you to deal with it according to the old practice. But in the end, they are all the people of the Son of Heaven, where can they be allowed to waste outside for such a long time? This official will first come to donate 200,000 catties of grain, and you will preside over it, and then go to the high-ranking families and the official eunuchs to raise donations, just say my words, you must not see a single person freezing to death or starving to death inside and outside the Jingshi."

Under the city tower, there was a group of homeless people who were lined up by the soldiers and horses of the five cities, and when they heard this, they immediately heard a cheer.

"How many stones is 200,000 catties? How dare this official donate......

Jia Lian didn't pay attention to it, but suddenly heard the applause, and he couldn't help but be happy for a while.

After all, it is to do things for the people.

But the west side still has to be fought......

At this point, Jia Lian restrained those smiles.

Shuntianfu Yin next to him listened to the order, although he felt embarrassed, but he couldn't find a place to refuse, so he had to claim that it was.

Jia Lian looked at Wu Yong again, and then turned around, this time he really left first.

Wu Yong followed, patted this Shuntian Mansion Yin's shoulder, and said with a smile: "In the end, it's just tens of thousands of homeless people, where is the need to turn over everyone's portal in the capital? It's just that the extra money and food raised will be sent to the western state capital, and they will also be asked to bother to provide disaster relief on the spot, regardless of the dignity of the court, and drive the displaced people to the capital, which will not only make the government embarrassed in office, but also make it difficult for the court to deal with it. If you do a good job of collecting money and food, and you are from a Hanlin bachelor, are you not worthy of the position of governor?"

The expression on Yin's face changed for a while, and finally a sycophancy appeared, and he said deeply: "How dare you not do your best for your lord and your lord? The lower officials will not be willing to do a good job of collecting donations day and night, and it will also be seen that at this time when Li Shu is in misery, which of the ministers in the capital dares to disrespect the orders of the heavenly officials."

While speaking, Shuntian Mansion Yin looked at Wu Yong's face on the side, lest he say something wrong.

"Fu Jun is really a teachable material!"

Wu Yong laughed loudly, and personally straightened the black gauze hat for this Shuntianfu Yin, and praised it in his mouth.

……

Jia Lian is not a stupid person.

Stupid people can't be born in a half-decayed honor, and now they are in power.

Wu had already guessed the meaning of the fundraising idea, got out of the car from the outer wall of the Beijing Division, and returned to Shangshutai to do something, Jia Lian couldn't help but close his eyes and ponder along the way.

The pedantic brothers are now getting more and more inferior, which is somewhat disliked.

However, it is also to blame Prince Zhongshun for not knowing the importance of the matter, presiding over the Yushitai only caring about party disputes, if there was no interference from these people, maybe the West Sea should have been peaceful.

When the country is cleared, why not be at ease and be a free country?

Thinking about it, Jia Lian became impatient, hammered on the wall of the carriage with a fist, and scolded.

"Fight with these birds! How can the Sprinkle family do great things?"

The poor outcasts were so accustomed to seeing them that they had to blame the king for this. I only complained that the loyal and obedient king hid too deep in the palace that day and did not go well

Dao killed, and now I want to start again, but it's not a good move.

was secretly hating, but unconsciously the car had arrived at Shangshutai, and Xing'er Zhao'er outside opened the curtain and asked Jia Lian to get out of the car.

Jia Lian was about to draft a letter of Shuntianfu fundraising and submit it to the palace, but before he could go to his own office, the eunuch Wu Quan, who had been waiting for a while, came to find him.

Eunuch Wu hurriedly sent a message: "Your Majesty sent slaves and maids to invite Grandpa Guo to Linjing Palace, in order to decide whether there is war or peace along the West Sea.

Jia Lian had expected this, and if the war dragged on again, he was afraid that it would disturb the morale of the army when it reached the front line.

Without hesitation at the moment, Jia Zhishen didn't have time to take a sip of water, and Jia Zhishen boarded the car again and went to the palace Linjing Palace.

How can the kingdom of the Heavenly Empire still be bullied by foreign races? It still has to be the main battle.
