Therefore, Li Jingsheng attached great importance to Zhu Yunyan's instructions, and personally climbed the embankment every day to check the flood situation. At the same time, it worked together with Xu Huaimin, the head of the household department, to minimize the number of people affected by the disaster.

However, these preparations will not change the natural disasters that should come.

When this heavy rain, which had never been experienced since the establishment of the Chu and Qin dynasties, lasted until the fifteenth day, most of the streets in Xiyang City were covered with rain half a foot high, and many families had already retreated to higher ground.

People not only have problems in housing, but what is more terrible is that many families in Xiyang City have been cut off from food, and the people in the city are living in misery.

The price of grain in the grain shops in the city has risen again and again, and although the household department has issued an official document in time to stabilize the price, the grain price has always remained high in the case of more people and less rice.

The situation outside the city is a little worse than the situation inside the city.

Although the Ministry of Industry has been consolidating the flood control dikes during this period, dredging the blocked rivers and expanding the urban and rural roads, so that the roads leading from outside the city to the city will not be washed away by the rain, it has indeed alleviated the problem of some affected villages outside the city being besieged and waiting for death.

However, the influx of a large number of victims has put more pressure on Xiyang City than usual.

Fortunately, as soon as the disaster occurred, Shen Youxia led the people of the Rui Wangfu and the Dingguo Marquis Mansion to set up soup kitchens in various parts of the city, and also sent doctors in the mansion and shops to provide free medical treatment for the people in the city at important nodes in the city.

At the same time, Zhu Yunyan was busy outside Xiyang City with the guards and the manpower of the household department.

Enter the affected villages, rescue the besieged victims, clear the roads, maintain order, give porridge to the victims, rectify the order of the victims, and avoid the occurrence of looting. Zhu Yunyan also transferred some doctors from the Tai Hospital to directly treat the victims outside the city. This has alleviated the anxiety of the victims to a large extent and avoided the occurrence of incidents such as the victims wanting to rush into the city to smash, loot and burn.

After the Rui Wangfu and the Dingguo Marquis Mansion took the lead, there were finally some unbearable Jishan families in Xiyang City, and they also joined the ranks of giving clothes and porridge.

This incident shocked everyone in Xiyang City. Even above the court, there were many officials who deliberately proposed this matter to the emperor.

The impact and damage caused by such an unprecedented rainstorm, if not handled properly and slowly, is immeasurable with silver. After listening to the imperial historian's impassioned praise for King Rui and Princess Rui, the emperor praised King Rui in front of the Manchu Dynasty's civil and military affairs.

If King Rui does this, then the other princes and grandsons will not be able to watch it; The royal people have done this, and the big families with heads and faces can't watch anymore.

Therefore, the imperial court and the government began to open warehouses to release grain one after another, and soup porridge and clothing were also given to the affected places all over the country, so that the disaster situation in the whole country was greatly alleviated.

At the same time, the reputation and good deeds of the Rui Wangfu spread throughout Xiyang City.

And this kind of preaching is different from Zhu Yunyan's previous military exploits, and it is easy to be feared by the emperor if he has high merit.

However, this kind of preaching was very popular with the emperor, because it showed that under his rule, some people were willing to spend their wealth to help alleviate the disasters caused by natural disasters, and the princes were willing to put aside their prejudices to help the victims.
