Chapter 253: The eldest princess spares her life

The thief's eyebrows and mouse eyes were excited, Chunhua had served the eldest princess, and no one would dare to say anything about her in the future, and Chunhua would be the most decent girl in the future.

Jiang Fuguang called a secret guard over and explained a few words.

The Dark Guard immediately pointed over to the thief's eyebrows.

Where did the official dare to deceive, he confessed on the spot, and returned the innocence of the Chunhua girl, and the secret guard immediately tied up the official and turned around and put him in the county prison.

Everyone saw that the eldest princess was resolute, and they were very happy.

One after another, villagers came forward to accuse the officials of robbing property, bullying the villagers, and other heinous acts.

Jiang Fuguang dealt with them one by one.

She knew very well that the contradictions between the officials and the villagers were irreconcilable, and if they could not be properly handled, even greater contradictions would erupt later.

The consequences of public anger and resentment are unimaginable.

At this time, a villager stepped forward with fear: "Eldest princess, the little one night was in a hurry to urinate, and when she went out of the house to release water, she saw a few officials sneaking together, saying that Wang County ordered them to come over and make a show, don't contribute, you must let the disaster expand......"

"Yes, we saw that they often pushed sandbags piled up on the embankment into the river when the villagers were not looking."

"I saw it too."

"Just now we were looking for the theory of officers and soldiers, and we almost started fighting."

“……”

The voices of gossip all around made the officials frightened to the ground, and one by one they collapsed to the ground, breaking down and shouting:

"I didn't, not my ......"

"The eldest princess spares her life!"

"The eldest princess spared us this time!"

“……”

Jiang Fuguang finally figured out where the villagers' hatred for the servants was rooted.

She sneered, walked up to the group of officials, picked up a whip on the ground, remembered this whip, not long ago whipped a villager to the point that he fell to the ground.

She summoned a tall villager: "What's your name?" ”

"My name is Wang Dagui."

Jiang Fuguang handed the whip to him: "It takes a lot of people to build an embankment, you take this whip, and in the future, they don't do their best, so they will smoke it directly." ”

The villagers couldn't help but be stunned.

Jiang Fuguang continued, his tone serious: "However, the whip can't be pumped indiscriminately, you look at the current water level, if you hurt one person, there will be one less person to carry a bag to build an embankment, there will be a lot less sandbags on the embankment, and the danger of the dam being flooded will be one more point, do you think this is the reason?" ”

Wang Dagui clenched the whip in his hand excitedly and nodded vigorously: "The whip can only whip those lazy donkeys." ”

"Yes." Jiang Fuguang smiled.

The best way to resolve a conflict is never persuasion, let alone mediation, but the reversal of roles between the two sides.

The villagers have turned from being victims of oppression to being oppressed by the oppressive side, and they have been psychologically balanced, and their grievances will naturally dissipate.

The servants are acting for the tiger, and it is not worth her to mediate.

Looking at the mighty river and the rising water level, Jiang Fuguang's face was very solemn, and after inspecting the dam, he went to the resettlement site in the town non-stop to check the shelter of the victims.

There were hundreds of tents in the open space, and before he got close, Jiang Fuguang smelled a sour and moldy smell.

Men, women, and children were crowded together, unable to stretch their bodies, the cries of children, the coughing of the sick, the yelling of men, the howling of women......

As far as the eye can see, there is suffering.

Jiang Fuguang was furious: "I took off the official uniforms of Wang County Ling and Li Taishou, put them in a prisoner car, and paraded in the major towns of Xin'an County, so that everyone knows what will happen if you are an official and not for the people." ”

Yu Linwei immediately offered his hand.

"Pass the orphan order, set up camp in the open space in the town, bring women, the elderly, children, and the physically handicapped back to the town for proper placement, ask the doctor to come and screen the patients, place the patients alone, and treat them, and the healthy ones are sent to the dam to build an embankment, three meals a day, and the government will provide food."

"From tomorrow onwards, the victims will be given two meals a day, and women, the elderly, and elderly children who are free of illness and pain will be arranged to collect wormwood, atractylodes, perilla, calamus, angelica, incense, Xinyi, banlan root, houttuynia cordata and other herbs with disease and plague prevention, boil them every day, distribute them to the victims, and the garrison battalion will dispatch manpower to protect their safety."

"Mobilize the masses of the whole county to collect anti-epidemic medicinal materials, and collect the medicinal materials they collected at market prices in the name of the government."

Ji Ruxuan's eyes flashed, these herbs are widely distributed in the warm and humid areas of the south, and can be seen everywhere on the edge of the fields and on the mountain paths.

It is now May and June, which is the time when these herbs are collected, and the herbs are also at their best.

Epidemic disease is better than prevention.

The people living in the resettlement sites all day long mourning and sighing, eating and waiting for death, coupled with the large number of people and chaos, can easily lead to contradictions, conflicts and riots, causing serious consequences.

Instead of letting them stay in the resettlement sites to exhaust their spirits, it is better to arrange something for them to do to relieve the pressure of law and order and disaster prevention, and at the same time let them feel the hope of survival.

"The yamen posted an article reminding all villages and towns to pay attention to epidemic prevention and drink some anti-disease medicine every day."

"Every day, the government sends messengers to the streets to beat gongs to remind the people to pay attention to cleanliness and prevent diseases."

"The resettlement sites for the victims are supervised and managed, and the cleanliness of the victims' and camp tents is inspected every day, and the incense medicine used to avoid evil spirits and prevent pollution is burned every day."

"The victims of the disaster monitored each other, and the whistleblower added an extra piece of meat to their daily meals."

"As soon as anyone is found to be sick, they should be separated immediately, and those who camp together in the tent should also stay in the tent for three days, and those who are not sick will be allowed to leave the tent."

“……”

Jiang Fuguang acted resolutely, and as soon as the order was issued, it was immediately executed, and he also sent secret guards to supervise the progress and mobilize the townspeople to come over to help.

The chaotic containment site suddenly became orderly.

By this time, it was already dark.

Jiang Fuguang dragged his tired and hungry body back to the county office.

Yingluo prepared ginger soup to ward off the cold, Jiang Fuguang drank a big bowl, and felt that his cold body became warm, and his body was more comfortable.

"The slave maid prepared a medicinal bath, and the eldest princess's body and bones were affected, so she had the energy to run for the victims after soaking in it." Yingluo was worried that the eldest princess would be in better health, and she would be tired and sick again.

"Good!" The disaster prevention and rescue of Xin'an County has not been fully carried out, and there will be more and more troubles waiting for her in the future, and she can't get sick at this time.

The paperwork on the bookcase was piled up, and the rush was late at night.

Ji Ruxuan brought a bowl of perfect tonic soup into the house: "After drinking the soup, I will go to sleep for two hours, tomorrow before dawn, I will go to the shelter point, inspect the rectification of the shelter, and the distribution of materials, and work all day." ”

Jiang Fuguang put the pen on the pen mountain, rubbed his somewhat sore wrist, and sighed lightly: "There are thousands of things, and there are no big or small things, even if there is a riot in the shelter, we must repeatedly consider how to deal with this matter, so as not to cause public resentment, public anger, and civil unrest, and we must also figure out what the cause of the riot is, investigate its root cause, and how to avoid it." ”

It's just too hard.
