Chapter 75 Disaster Victims
Yuan Tan got the revelation of Xin Ping, and his heart was already determined, and a vicious plan that seemed to be something and gradually took shape began to gradually enter his mind.
The third brother, born in troubled times, born in a noble and wealthy family, this is the fate of you and me! Don't blame your brother for being ruthless, the world is like this, you can't force it. If you want to complain, blame yourself for receiving too much attention and opportunities that you shouldn't have took.......
On the way back from Yuan Tan's mansion to the pavilion, Xin Ping's heart also rose and fell, inexplicably, like the stormy waves, swept with infinite unease, surging into his heart.
Is it right or wrong for me to do this?
Xin Ping's heart is really a little uncertain, he is a capable minister who swears allegiance to the Yuan family, and he has determined to tie the honor and disgrace of his life tightly with the Yuan family, floating and sinking.
But now, he went against his original intention, got involved in the battle for the heir of the Yuan family, and wholeheartedly assisted the eldest prince he was optimistic about, and even helped him to poison the branches and leaves of the Yuan family, is this kind of thing right or wrong? Even he couldn't tell.
Xin Ping's complexion changed and turned, changed and changed, and finally made up his mind fiercely!
I wasn't wrong! I'm absolutely right! Since ancient times, the law of etiquette has established the long and not the young! The eldest prince is the best person who can really carry the hegemony of Hebei, Yuan Xianfu is just an arrogant and arrogant embroidered pillow, can An achieve great things? If Hebei is in his hands, how can he return the nest?
Where you go, it's worth it! Giving up the son of a nobleman, and getting the hegemony of the world, and ensuring that the Yuan family is prosperous in the world, even if the lord knows, he will not blame me!
Because my heart is flat and absolutely loyal to the Yuan family!
********************
The Licheng land in the northern border of Xuzhou is already close to Jishui, and after passing two ferries, it will be able to turn back to Hebei, and it will be convenient to return safely, and everything will start from scratch.
The autumn wind is not cool, the sky is slightly warmer, the fog near the city is very big these days, walking on the street, just like the Haohao Yuantian, dissolving and dissolving the bright sun, only to see the white sideburns, a little bit of the dense clothes, the road is complete and not divided, the suburban trees are the same.
On the official road from west to east, several fast horses slowly drove in, and the rumbling sound of horses' hooves rolled up a cloud of dust on the official road, and quickly dissipated into the fog.
Among the knights, a young man was the leader, and everyone faintly surrounded him, the man was dressed in a black shirt, his face was like a crown of jade, his eyes were like stars, he looked quite handsome, and the starry eyes were full of light, mixed with a bit of cunning.
The person who came was Yuan Shang.
Last night, after a lot of hard work, the soldiers and horses of the Yuan army finally arrived at the place of Licheng in the north of Xuzhou, and their troops were all secretly stationed near the upper reaches of Jishui, led by Zhang Jaw, Gao Lan, and Lu Lingqi.
The original intention of everyone was to be on standby, and the whole army would rest for a day, and after waiting for the night, they would march together to find a way to cross Jishui North and go to the north of Jishui at night, so that within two days, they could reach the realm of Qingzhou and meet Yuan Tan.
The better thing should have been a certainty, but Yuan Sangongzi began to be a moth again.
After rushing for several days in a row, Yuan Shangxian's double eggs were painful, and he saw that he was about to turn around successfully, and his heart, which had been silent for several days, began to come alive again, and he wanted to taste the taste of a private visit to Weifu, go to Licheng to walk around, and observe the people's feelings by the way.
When it was, there were Zhang Jaw, Gao Lan, Lu Lingqi, Deng Chang, and Xiahou Juan who wanted to accompany them.
After a visual inspection one by one, Yuan Shang vetoed them all.
Zhang Jaw and Gao Ran need to sit here to take care of the soldiers and horses and take charge of the overall situation.
Lu Lingqi is a thief, I don't know if anyone will be able to recognize her, besides, this woman acts differently from ordinary women, from the inside to the outside with an arrogant heroic spirit, the return rate is too high, and it is a little eye-catching to bring around, but it is still not good.
Xiahou Juan is a beautiful and sensible girl, eye-catching and comfortable to take with her, but unfortunately since she drank with Lu Lingqi that time, this girl has changed and become the mute who can only "Abba Aba", Yuan Shang wants to make a private visit to inspect the people's situation, and it is easy for others to misunderstand with a big tongue, and it is very difficult to speak and do things, which is not very convenient.
As for Deng Chang'er, he was brave, resourceless and useless, and he couldn't even hold a fart with him, so Yuan Shang didn't want to lead it in his heart.
In this way, the final result was that Yuan Shang led a few capable soldiers to go to the nameless town of Licheng to inspect the customs and customs...........
"Childe, look, there are a lot of people in front of you!" Seeing that he was about to approach Licheng, a soldier of Yuan dressed as an entourage said respectfully towards Yuan Shang.
Yuan Shang looked at it, but saw that around Licheng not far away, there were many people sitting or standing or lying on the side of the moat, all of whom were in tattered clothes, ragged, filthy in appearance, yellow and thin, and starless, looking extremely pitiful.
Yuan Shang was puzzled when he saw this, and then asked a guard behind him, "You go and inquire and see what's going on." ”
When the guard heard this, he went away.
When he was young, the guards rode back and arched their hands to Yuan Shang and said, "Son, my subordinates have made it clear!" Last month was the rainy season, and the upper reaches of Jishui collapsed, and there was a flood, which flooded many villages. Fortunately, there are not many people, and there is no big threat to the city, and the county magistrate in the city reluctantly let them settle here, but the city is narrow and narrow, and it can't accommodate so many disaster victims, so they can only let them gather outside the city temporarily, and live temporarily according to the moat. ”
Yuan Shang nodded when he heard this, and sighed: "Born in the autumn of troubled times, and suffered the disaster of destroying the township, these refugees are really pitiful..... Let's go, let's go into the city and have a look. ”
The guards behind Yuan Shang frowned when they heard this, and admonished: "Childe, now Licheng is already a place where disaster victims gather, not a good place to visit, General Zhang and they are still waiting by Jishui, let's go back early." ”
Yuan Shang shook his head and said: "I'm not busy, since it's a private visit to Weifu and sympathetic to the people's feelings, then we should take a look at this kind of situation that we can't see on weekdays, the world is so big, and the disaster is not only in Licheng, earthquakes, locust plagues, and floods can happen from time to time, and there are more disasters in the world, who dares to guarantee that the next disaster will not be under the jurisdiction of Hebei?" Close your eyes, regardless of what your neighbors think is the most important. ”
The guards all bowed when they heard this, and then followed Yuan Shang towards Licheng.
Passing by the moat and beating horses from the group of refugees, Yuan Shang suddenly wrinkled his nose, but felt a pungent fishy smell coming to his face, its smell was unbearable, very sultry, and he almost didn't let Yuan Shang vomit out.
Frowning and looking at the stenching moat, Yuan Shang's heart seemed to be thoughtful.
***************
Licheng County Yanei.
Guo Jia was dressed in white, sitting cross-legged on the main seat, leisurely holding a small tea cup, sipping it carefully, and the Licheng County Governor below was serving on the side, smiling vigorously.
"Licheng around the flood this time, refugees poured in, there is not much grain in the city, Xiaguan Zheng does not know how to deal with it, just in time for Guo Sai Wine to tour the east, borrowed food from Xuzhou, solved the current emergency, Xiaguan is here, instead of thousands of refugees affected by the disaster around here, Mr. Xie Guo!"
Guo Jia waved his hand indiscriminately and said with a grin: "What I said is that I am outside, you and I are both Hanchen, and we are both working under Cao Sikong's rule, and the people have suffered from floods. You just come with me to this false trick, and say that now the victims of the disaster in Licheng still need what disaster relief things, Guo will ask Xuzhou Taishou for you to go in the future. ”
The county magistrate shook his head with a smile when he heard this, and said: "Mr. Guo came this time, the grain and straw cultivation are all ready, the victims are hungry and have food to eat, and clothes to wear in the cold. ”
Guo Jia nodded when he heard this, then stood up abruptly and walked out, saying as he walked: "Since there is no shortage of other things, then you can let go of the disaster relief, Guo still has important matters, so I will not accompany you here." ”
Seeing that Guo Jia was leaving, Licheng County couldn't help but be surprised: "Mr. Guo has only been in the mansion for half a day, where is he going in a hurry?" ”
Guo Jia waved his hand casually and said, "Guo is not used to sitting in your county, I want to inspect the disaster situation, sympathize with the people's feelings, and find a wine shop to eat a few by the way...... Thou shalt give thee calamity, and thou shalt not care what thou shalt do. ”
