"My lord, did you come to me to explain something?"

Rao Zhiming, the master of Tianzhucheng County, is also a distant relative of Yu Wenbai.

"Do you see the refugees outside?"

Yu Wenbai pointed ahead and said indifferently.

When Rao Zhiming heard this, he was stunned at first, and then nodded.

"Go! Expel these refugees to me, and we can't let these refugees be active in the Prince's sight anymore, otherwise it will be very bad for us! ”

Yu Wenbai said coldly.

"Second uncle, I'm afraid this is a little inappropriate! His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has already seen these refugees outside the city, and if we drive them away, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will inevitably be suspicious. ”

Rao Zhiming is a person who has read books, but his thoughtfulness is not comparable to that of Yu Wenbai, the prince is here for the disaster, if they drive the victims away at this moment, maybe it will backfire.

After hearing Rao Zhiming's words, Yu Wenbai lowered his head and pondered for a moment, then frowned and said, "What you said is not unreasonable, but if these refugees have been begging along the road outside the city, it is also a troublesome matter. ”

"Adult, villain has a way."

Rao Zhiming said.

"Oh? Master, if there is any way, let's hear it. ”

I only heard Rao Zhiming speak: "This time the prince came to Tianzhu City to check the disaster, didn't the adults want to show in front of the prince?" Instead of being a burden, these victims can become bargaining chips in the hands of adults to gain the prince's appreciation! ”

"There are too many people to help, but we can select some obedient people from these victims to cooperate with adults to put on a good show."

"Huh?"

Hearing this, Lu Wenbai's eyes suddenly lit up.

"Good, good! That's a good idea! It's up to you to do it, remember, you have to do it beautifully! ”

"Yes!"

……

Two days later, the official residence.

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!"

A guard hurried towards the backyard where Li Gan's room was located.

"What's so alarming?"

Li Gan, who was in the courtyard, couldn't help frowning when he saw the guards who came in a hurry.

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, the household clerk is here."

After speaking, the guard immediately handed the Chinese book to Li Gan.

took the document and unfolded it, and when Li Gan saw the content on the document, he couldn't help but show a smile on his face.

Immediately, Li Gan stood up, waved his hand, and said, "You go and inform Lord Yu immediately, just say that the grain and grass of the household department will arrive in Tianzhu City at noon today." Let him contact the officials of the other cities and counties in Pingzhou and come to Tianzhu City to discuss relief! ”

"Your Highness, I am afraid that it will be a little difficult to contact the officials, early this morning, I took the people in the palace and the arrest of the yamen to the outside of the city."

The guard replied cautiously.

"Went out of town? Do what? ”

"I heard that it was for the victims of the disaster."

Well?

Li Gan was slightly surprised when he heard this, and after some thought, he first went to see if this Wen Bai was really as the guard said, relieving the victims.

"Lead the way!"

Li Gan waved his hand, and immediately left the mansion with a few guards and went outside the city.

At this moment, outside Tianzhu City, several simple bamboo sheds are standing up, and in front of each bamboo shed, there is a long queue at this moment.

In each bamboo shed, there are two wooden barrels about one meter high, the barrels are filled with heat, the servants of the Yu family are responsible for giving porridge to each refugee, and the officials of the county government are responsible for maintaining the order of the scene, and the whole soup soup site is in order.

Those refugees who had already received the porridge looked excited, and went to the side to gobble it up, and Li Gan, who had just come this time, couldn't help but nod with relief for Lu Wenbai's behavior.

"Your Royal Highness the Prince, why are you here?"

With the arrival of Li Gan, Lu Wenbai also discovered him for the first time, and then hurriedly stepped forward.

"Lord Zhu did a good job, no wonder the city can be managed by Lord Lu in an orderly manner this day, and it is a great blessing to have a good official like Lord Zhu on this day."

Li Qian looked at the scene in front of him and couldn't help but nodded. In his opinion, it is a good start to be able to feed these refugees now.

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has won the award, this is what the lower officials should do."

Receiving the praise, Lu Wenbai was excited.

Afterwards, Li Qian slowly stepped forward and went to one of the bamboo sheds, where he personally served porridge for the victims.

For this kind of opportunity to make a fool of himself, how could he miss it, he immediately stepped forward and said, "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is really close to the people, and the officials are really ashamed." ”

After speaking, Lu Wenbai looked at the queue of victims in front of him like a long queue and said, "People, do you know who this person is?" This is the crown prince of my Dawu Dynasty! His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has come down to express his condolences to us! ”

These so-called victims were originally the people who were carefully selected by Yu Wenbai to cooperate with his acting, and after hearing Yu Wenbai's words, all the victims at the scene hurriedly pretended to be sincere and knelt down in fear.

"See the Prince!"

Hundreds of victims shouted in unison, and the momentum shook the sky, and this scene fell in Li Gan's eyes, and Li Gan was naturally extremely pleased.

"Get up, rest assured, the Pingzhou drought court attaches great importance to it, the prince is just the first to comfort the people, and later, whether it is food or disaster silver, it will arrive one after another, this drought, our officials and people are united, and we will be able to get through it smoothly!"

Li Qian spoke passionately.

At the same time, on the official road leading to Pingzhou, a huge procession was moving slowly.

This team is quite strange, dozens of people on the periphery are all men on horseback with knives, and in the middle of the team are dozens of carriages.

In the team, in a luxury carriage, Chu Mo and Li Chengwen sat opposite each other.

It's no wonder they're so careful, after all, they're here to escort relief supplies, and they can't afford to be sloppy.

Along the way, the road was full of displaced people, and the place around which you could still see the land was now dry and cracked, and turned into a wasteland.

The procession traveled several miles, and it was somewhat strange that the closer they got to the city, the fewer displaced people there were on the way, and even by the end, there was no one within a radius of a few miles.

This difference between before and after made Li Chengwen in the carriage frown.

"Stop!"

Just as the team marched to a village, Li Chengwen finally couldn't help but speak.

When the guard driving the horse heard this, he immediately stopped the carriage, Li Chengwen lifted the curtain, first glanced outside, and then jumped straight out of the carriage and walked slowly towards the dry crops on the side.

Li Chengwen walked to the dry land on the side, squatted down and looked carefully, looked up again, and couldn't help frowning his brows......

Thousands of miles of red land, deserted!
