Chapter 930: Famine, Natural Disasters 87

The reality is that he does not have the ability to act.

returned to their homes and fell asleep peacefully, but Cheng Yuanxi couldn't sleep in the middle of the night; The facts in front of him made him toss and turn.

The rest of the clan does not study and take the imperial examination, and his family wants it.

The tribesmen feel that they can go anywhere, as long as they can live; But he couldn't think like that, he had to think about his son.

Cheng Yuanxi tossed and turned in the middle of the night, and he fell asleep when he was so sleepy.

The station was silent, and only the sound of breathing could be heard, which seemed to be deep and shallow.

Mingyi opened her eyes and made sure that her brother and father were asleep, she gently lifted the quilt and got up quietly, and got off the wheelbarrow; Glancing at the situation in the station again, he made sure that no one had woken up, and he flew away in the dim night light.

The black shadow leaped into the county seat in the darkness of the night.

The county town is dark, and the dim night light does not shine into the narrow streets and alleys, causing the county town to be two points darker than the outside.

She flew onto the roof and first figured out the layout of the entire county; Then he found the location of the county office, jumped down, and landed lightly.

She followed the location of the light first, and heard someone talking in the room.

"My lord, the word from Fucheng is that let's pacify the victims first, if we drive people out, is it really okay? I've asked people to ask them, they're a member of the same family, and if they really want to make a fuss, we won't be able to get out of it safely. ”

"Whatever you are afraid of, just drive them out and send them to the border area; When the prefect asked, we said we didn't know, we hadn't seen them. A strong voice sounded in the room.

I think it's the staff and the prefectural commander talking about something.

Mingyi crouched under the window, used the darkness to hide her tracks, and listened quietly.

"My lord, why don't you settle them down in the village below?"

"However, today the lord has already sent someone to let them go, and suddenly there is another arrangement, where is the majesty of the lord?"

"Is what a few hundred people say credible, or is ours credible? Your Excellency you know. ”

There were about two staff members in the house, arguing with each other.

At this time, a slightly calm voice sounded, "The prefect only said that we should arrange the disaster victims, but did not say that we should take over the work of the disaster victims; Wouldn't it be good to send them to Fucheng? If they are really bloody, they will go to the city to make trouble and see what the prefect will do. ”

"Your Excellency is clever."

The voice of flattery brought a little pride, thinking that it was because he won another staff member's argument, and the county commander was so proud of him.

Mingyi's eyes were filled with coldness, bullshit county order, the prefect's meaning couldn't be more obvious; Is it difficult for them to arrange their group of disaster victims and send them to the villages below the county seat, or to open up a piece of wasteland for them to resettle?

If you don't want to do it yourself, you have the following people to perform your duties; However, this dog official doesn't even want to do such a thing for the people, so he is a parent official in vain.

She quietly took up the light work to find the county government treasury, and touched a treasury to collect one; Grain, gold and silver treasures, after collecting the county office, she returned to the courtyard where the current county order study was located.

At this time, the staff dispersed, and the county ordered the lights in the study to be extinguished; I saw a slender figure walk out, walked out of the yard and went to the small courtyard where she lived next to her, she didn't rush out, but waited until the lights of the house where the county order lived went out before going to the study.

Gently push open the door of the study, do not explore the study, and directly collect the bookshelves, tables and chairs together.

The desks, chairs, and bookshelves in the study were emptied, and she was keenly aware of a groove in the place where the bookshelves had been placed; If it weren't for the missing bookshelves, she wouldn't have found them.

Press it down.

The walls made a subtle muffled sound, but the sound was not loud and would not be transmitted outside the courtyard.

A stone door opened, and Mingyi took it out of the space before collecting the lantern in the study; He took out the fire fold and lit it and walked into the passage, and walked a few steps forward to make sure that the light would not illuminate the study outside the stone gate before lighting the lantern.

With the light, Mingyi can see the layout of the secret room thoroughly; In front of me is a bluestone staircase that goes down, and I go down all the way, and I walk about 30 steps before I see the head.

Standing on the last step, the lantern sticks out and looks inside; The boxes were piled up, and there was no dust on the boxes, so I thought that the prefectural magistrate often came in to clean them.

Step forward and open the chest closest to her.

It was filled with large ingots of silver, ten taels per ingot; Judging from the arrangement of the silver, there are ten in a row, five in a vertical row, and fifty on a layer.

The chest is fifty centimeters high and can hold at least ten layers, which means that there are at least a thousand taels of silver ingots in a chest.

Boy.

Proper corrupt officials.

Picked up a silver ingot and looked at it, and the bottom was engraved with official characters.

Official silver!

Is it for disaster relief?

No, even if the disaster relief is in a small remote county, the government should be responsible, and the small county town can only get food instead of silver; So where did the money come from?

Wherever it came from, it's hers.

Mingyi waved his hand and took away all the boxes, and then took a look when he had time; Walking out of the secret room, she returned to the original state, extinguished the lantern and closed the stone wall, and quietly walked out of the study and closed the door.

She took the opportunity to go to the courtyard where the prefectural lord lived, but there was no movement in it, thinking that she had fallen asleep.

To make sure she wasn't discovered, she didn't have a bedroom in the prefectural order; Instead, they were scraped in the surrounding wings, and all the valuable ones were taken away, and even the tables, chairs, and tea sets were not left.

Finally, push open the bedroom of the prefectural order.

"Who?"

Mingyi flew away and floated behind him and kicked his legs.

"Ahh

Screaming in pain, he disappeared halfway, and Mingyi took advantage of the county order to kneel on the ground and stun him with his hand; looked at the puddle of mud on the ground, and kicked it several times in disgust.

A parent official who doesn't think about the people, he also deserves it.

The original intention of being an official was to serve the country and the people, since he couldn't do it, he only had selfishness to let him be corrupt and take bribes; Then let him be a poor bastard and collect all the things in the house with his backhand.

He didn't even leave a bed frame.

After collecting her things, Mingyi heard what seemed to be footsteps coming in a hurry outside the courtyard; took off his shoes and slapped more than twenty times in the face of the county commander, can't he kill him to relieve his hatred.

Put on your shoes when you're done, push open the window and go!

As soon as she left, a group of people dressed in sect clothes came in a hurry.

Mingyi didn't even look at it, but these people were alert, and they woke up only half of their screams.

Standing outside the county office, Mingyi felt that she should do something; turned around to look for the grain shops in the county, but found two, and after collecting the grain on the surface of the two grain shops, one family left three hundred taels of silver, but it was official silver.

The official bank cannot be blatantly taken out and used, and it must be used after it has been melted; Moreover, she did not take all their stockpiles.

There was a glimmer of leeway.

The grain is harvested, and by the way, seasonings are also harvested, such as salt is indispensable; She didn't want to go to the beach to boil salt, how could she tell her father and mother that she would boil salt?

How could she know a secret that no one who lives by the sea knows all year round, right?

Therefore, she is still a simple, cute and innocent little girl.
