Bright sunlight pierced through the clouds and shone in through the wooden window lattices. The days when it doesn't rain in Huaizhou are almost always sunny.

Jiang Yu sat upstairs on the safe ticket number, looking at the scrolls piled up in front of her. It's all the current distribution of Moon Shadow's forces and the information in the city.

The window of the room on the second floor is facing the main street in Huaizhou City.

Outside, gongs and drums rang out, and the sound of celebration rose and fell.

Many children from large families have achieved good results, and even spread their wealth on the street.

The private rooms of the major restaurants are fully booked, and they all have to wait for the celebration banquet in the evening. Prepare for a big feast and rest when you get drunk.

"Oops, I really let this kid get in." The shopkeeper's Qian Lao sat opposite Jiang Yu and touched his beard. "What a champion."

Today is the day of the release of the list, and no one thought that the champion would be a poor little white face from the countryside.

Jiang Yuwaner: "Does Qian Lao regret not exchanging silver taels for him half a month ago?" ”

After all, if you are the champion in high school, you will have a bright future in the future. Now it's something that everyone wants to stammer.

Jiale has a political and legal system, and all the cities will take the test. The top three can enter Beijing as officials or be placed in various places to assist the prefect.

"What can you do when you enter the capital? I am deceitful, and the wind and clouds are sophistry. It's good to be able to stand firm, but have a relationship with him? Hum. ”

Qian Lao showed all his disdain on his face. "This kid is from the township and county, and he is very ambitious, and he is estimated to go to the capital to become an official."

Qian Lao sighed: "I hope he can become a good official for the people and the country, don't go to the capital and be dazzled." ”

Jiang Yu's eyes looked at the stretched tea leaves in the teacup in front of her with deep and soft eyes, swirling, rising, and sinking slowly in the clear turquoise liquid.

Rise and sink again, three ups and three downs, elegant shadows and water, reflecting each other.

"Looking at his appearance that day, he was also a literati, Qian Lao disliked him on the surface and couldn't even understand a silver ticket, but in fact, he was already moved by his stubbornness standing at the door."

"I said, you little girl, how do you know I'm not tired of him?"

Jiang Yu said: "If you really hate it, just drive it away, why do you have to use money bags to send it away?" ”

Jiang Yu said: "If you really hate it, just drive it away, why do you have to use money bags to send it away?" ”

Qian Lao suddenly became excited: "How do you know ......?"

"That's it, you have great powers. I don't know where you came from, but the eldest princess actually chose you to accept the Moon Shadow Guard. ”

Jiang Yu raised her eyebrows and motioned for him to continue.

Qian Lao said: "Although I haven't seen the eldest princess a few times, you really feel like ...... to me."

"Oh?" Jiang Yu's eyes sharpened: "Let's get down to business, why have prices soared so high recently?" ”

Jiang Yu looked at the thick stacks of ledgers on the table: "Just looking at the price of salt is ridiculously high." ”

Qian Lao took a sip of tea and sighed twice: "Natural disaster, natural disaster." ”

Jiang Yu's brows furrowed fiercely.

"It's not the Huaizhou flood, it washed away a county last night."

"What about the people?"

"Next to the street of the homeless, a few rows of tiled houses were built. It is still only sheltered from the rain and not the wind, only the eaves and two walls. ”

Qian Lao said in a low voice: "I don't know what the prefect thinks, I should have reported to the court as early as the continuous heavy rain, otherwise I wouldn't have been able to get to this point today." "Outside the chaotic cheers drifted in through the window,

"It's really a few happy and a few feuds."

"I see." Jiang Yu closed the scrolls and got up, "I've basically finished reading these, I'll go first." ”

Qian Lao nodded, and Jiang Yu stopped him from getting up to send him off.

***

Qiang Ji carried a large bag of goods into Jiang Yu's courtyard in his hand, "Miss Jiang, I bought it back." ”

Qiang Ji entered the house and put a few noble gift boxes on the table, paused, and flashed to the back of the house: "Where is your young lady?" ”

Chun Tao's wrist was pinched by the sudden appearance of Qiang, and she suddenly exclaimed.

Chun Tao was arranged by Jiang Yu in a side room a few days ago, and in her free time, she came to the open space behind the house to plant fruits and vegetables.

Jiang Yu doesn't need her to take care of her usual things, she is only responsible for taking care of her daily life and keeping her clothes.

Where Jiang Yu was going, she didn't consciously ask much.

"Let it go...... Let go! You're hurting me. ”

Qiang Ji's face was extremely embarrassed, he was too anxious in his heart, and the strength in his hand was confiscated: "Where did your young lady go?" ”

Chun Tao hesitated to tell Qiang Ji.

"Say it! If something happens to her, can you take care of it? ”

Jiang Yu usually doesn't go out of the house, she looks lazy, either sitting at the table knocking walnuts, or lying on the recliner in the courtyard to bask in the sun.

Today, I suddenly made a list and told Qiang to go out and buy things.

Qiang Ji was negligent for a while, and happily agreed. Unexpectedly, Jiang Yu turned her head and walked out.

The prince never had the intention of restricting Jiang Yu's activities when he left him here, but his safety must be guaranteed.

Now no one can find it, in case of any accident, it is unimaginable. "You'll be out of the house in a short time. As for where to go, Miss didn't tell me......"

Hearing this, Qiang immediately let go of the hand that was holding her and jumped out.

With a whistle, the guards came out from all corners. "Everyone can see that they are lost, and they will all be punished when they come back! Now I immediately went out of the house to look for it, but I couldn't find a person to see him. ”

The sky, which had just been clear, suddenly became cloudy, and rolling thunder roared among the clouds.

Everyone knows that another heavy rain is coming.

"Ahem, cough, cough," a pale-faced old man clutched his chest, coughing unconcealably.

He sat in the corner with his back bent, his eyes bloodshot. It makes people look terminally ill at first glance.

The young man on the side half-knelt and patted the old man on the back. "Dad, you're pretty strong. I made a lot of money working today. I'll be able to buy you medicine tomorrow. ”

The old man spoke weakly, and his hoarse voice seemed to be burned: "It's useless, your fate has been decided, you can keep the money to buy some food for the child." ”

A child stood in the distance, looking at the old man with red and swollen eyes.

It was from the small county town of Huaizhou. Their home had just been washed away by heavy rains, and overnight, all their savings were destroyed.

And there are countless people like them.

The makeshift sheds were filled with people who were lucky, and many died in the floods and on the roads.

There are still many people who have not been resettled here and are still scattered in the city.

And the people here will not receive medicine and treatment. The germs have long since spread among the population.

The raindrops fell on the ground, and the eaves also fell on the hearts of the people in Pengzhong.

"Oh my God, don't let people live?" The voice of grief grew louder. Some people who couldn't hold back even cried.

"Heaven will destroy me, and my kingdom will not save me. The fiery life of the water kills me! ”

Jiang Yu watched this scene from under the eaves in the distance, and she was angry.

Is this the life of the people of Jiale? Campaign after battle, so that the country is now sound.

At this moment, some people are enjoying the song and swallow dance in the restaurant, but some people are dying under the rain curtain.

What if it's a natural disaster? As long as there are people, the country is there, and the rule of law is there.

It is not permissible for the people to lose their livelihood security.

Qiang Ji flew down from the eaves, "Miss Jiang, why did you come here." It's not safe here! We were assassinated here last time, so let's go back."

"Did you see that?"

"See what?" Qiang Ji followed Jiang Yu's gaze. "Hey, it's just some outcasts. I'll send you back first. ”

"They are not outcasts, they are the people of Jiale."

"Go back." Jiang Yu said.

Prefect's Office.

"Ridiculous, do you know what you're talking about? There was not enough silver to feed them. Not to mention healing! ”

Jiang Zhihe slammed the table in front of him.

"I have already reported to the imperial court, you don't need to worry about this matter, just wait for approval. As soon as the appropriation from the imperial court arrived, disaster relief was immediately provided. ”

Jiang Yu stood in front of her with a straight waist: "Where did all the previous taxes go?" Can't Kaizhou release grain? ”

"To put it mildly, where did the money come from for last year's war? The money in the treasury is collected by us in these places. Just because of this battle, a group of displaced people have already been helped. And since then, the symptoms have not been cured, and more and more displaced people have come one after another. What to do then? ”

"Even if there was a war last year, there shouldn't be nothing left on the account." Jiang Yu said.

"What do you know about a woman? Don't think that you can point fingers after following the regent for a few days with your cheeks. You took out two pieces of silver. ”

The implication is that the little girl with insufficient intelligence should stop being a vase

Jiang Yu was not annoyed, and said firmly and forcefully: "Okay, I'll take out the silver taels, and you can arrange disaster relief." ”

Jiang Zhihe sneered: "What are you kidding? You? ”

After all, he didn't know what he remembered. "Okay, three thousand taels. No more, no less. I will arrange disaster relief as soon as possible. ”

"Not soon, but immediately."

"You don't want to get an inch!"

Jiang Yu said: "Stop slapping the table, can this table stand up to you for so many years?" ”

"In the afternoon, I see free food in the streets. We want the patients in the street to get the treatment they deserve! ”

Jiang Zhihe said angrily: "What about the silver tael? When will it be fetched? ”

"When I see that people are guaranteed basic livelihood, you should know that the consequences of letting these people continue will be even greater, don't use the officers and soldiers to suppress that, you can't afford the people's riots/chaos and the contagion of the disease."

The abacus in Jiang Zhihe's heart crackled, and his tone softened: "You, you're lucky to walk shit, when will the regent's favor come?" I'll watch. ”

When Jiang Yu came out of Jiang Zhihe's study, Qiang Ji was waiting outside: "Miss Jiang, don't listen to what the old thief said, our prince is in love." ”

"Did you hear it all?"

Qiang scratched the back of his head: "No, ah no, I didn't mean to eavesdrop." You're arguing too loudly. ”

Qiang Ji observed Jiang Yu's expression, and after seeing that the latter was not angry, he then whispered: "It's only three thousand taels, I'll take you to my master's house to get it." Hey. ”
