276, as I thought

The time for disaster relief is undoubtedly fast.

Under Ah Cha's leadership, the impact of the floods in the past few days has gradually decreased, but her worries have become more and more serious.

There should have been a famine after the flood, and she had even prepared food in advance, but now there was no shadow of famine.

How could she not panic.

Just as she was thinking this, Zuochug walked in with a letter.

"Goddess, I've got a letter from Kyochu."

Ah Cha gently rubbed her eyebrows and took the new letter from the eldest princess from Zuo Qiuge's hand.

"The left minister is coming."

This was her biggest feeling after reading the letter.

She placed the letter on her lap and sighed deeply.

In fact, her mood at the moment is also very complicated.

The eldest princess on the letter made it very clear that it was the left minister who insisted on coming to the fiefdom to take over the affairs.

Of course, she can understand Zuo Xiang's intentions and considerations, and calculating the time when this letter was written, it is estimated that Zuo Xiang has already left the capital.

She will definitely not worry about Zuo Xiang's ability and way of doing things, but she is worried that after Zuo Xiang takes over the affairs of the fiefdom, the famine will suddenly break out.

If there is another plague suddenly, then she really has no energy to parry.

She still really didn't want to see the fiefdom situation worse when there was internal turmoil in Daxing.

But at this point, she couldn't think of anything else.

Her headache was seen by Zuochug.

"Goddess, is there anything wrong with Lord Zuo Xiang coming?"

Ah Cha shook his head.

"There's nothing wrong with it, it's even good."

"But behind this goodness, our control over the fiefdom is about to gradually decrease."

"In the past, there is naturally no need to be too strict in the control of the fiefdom, but I am worried that if we can't understand the actual situation of the fiefdom in time in the future, the left minister will not handle it properly for a while, I am afraid that it will lead to some new incidents."

No matter how you say it, it's an eventful time.

A little carelessness can trigger a butterfly effect.

The consequences may be much greater than they expected.

However, these Ah Cha didn't plan to say more, and waved his hand at him.

"You go down first, I'll think about how to reply to the eldest princess."

At the same time, the situation of the eldest princess and Zuo Xiang, who was remembered by her heart, is simply a reappearance of the past.

That's right, the eldest princess took on the responsibility of giving people away at the city gate this time.

She now felt like she was about to become a royal concierge.

It's still the kind of concierge that specializes in sending off high-level status.

But complaining is complaining, and the business still has to be done.

"Prime Minister Zuo, this palace is ordered by His Majesty to send you out of Beijing."

The eldest princess picked up her princess shelf and deliberately pretended to be unfamiliar with Zuo Xiang.

Zuo Xiang was also very cooperative, and said respectfully: "Your Majesty is very kind, and the old minister can't repay it." ”

"Please also ask the eldest princess to return to Your Majesty for the old minister, the old minister will definitely manage the affairs of the fief and share his worries when he goes."

Even the left minister himself knows very well.

Now this is just the last time he will give the Dog Emperor an official tone and draw a big cake before leaving Beijing.

I'm afraid that by the time he returns to Beijing from the fiefdom, the sky in Beijing will have already changed.

Seeing that Zuo Xiang was deep in thought, the eldest princess coughed lightly, "Zuo Xiang, the supplies that will go to the fiefdom with you have already taken a step ahead, and you can catch up later if you speed up your march." ”

Supplies one step ahead?

The corners of Zuo Xiang's lips twitched slightly uncontrollably.

The eldest princess could come up with such a statement.

Emperor Dog ordered him not to carry too many supplies, and the original plan was that he needed to be inspected before leaving Beijing.

The inspection process was not omitted, but the time of the inspection was advanced, and the inspection was ordered to be completed before the eldest princess had even arrived with the personnel sent by the emperor.

It is even more important to let the materials go first on the grounds that the speed of the material march is slow.

Of course, these are not things that can be said.

Zuo Xiang nodded slightly, indicating that he understood.

"The eldest princess, please rest assured, after the old minister leaves Beijing, he will go to catch up with the supplies as soon as possible."

"Lord Zuo Xiang is so loyal, no wonder the Imperial Brotherhood values you so much." As she spoke, the eldest princess took out a token from her sleeve and handed it over, "This is the token that the imperial brother gave you to mobilize the guards, so please accept it." ”

When he first heard the words of the eldest princess, Zuo Xiang was still a little puzzled, but at the moment when he took the token, Zuo Xiang understood it completely.

He was sure that this token was definitely not the one that the Dog Emperor gave him.

To be precise, it is true that the Dog Emperor gave himself a token to mobilize his guards, but those guards were specially sent by the Dog Emperor to monitor him.

Those people are directly under the orders of the Dog Emperor, and he can't mobilize them with the token.

But the eldest princess took the opportunity to make a plan to divert the tiger from the mountain, and gave herself the token that could really mobilize the guards.

For him, this is no less than a tiger with wings, and it greatly facilitates his plans after leaving Beijing.

So he didn't shirk it, and without hesitation, he received the token into his sleeve.

"Then the old minister will thank Your Majesty and the eldest princess for their love."

Seeing that everything has been almost explained, "Zuo Xiang, it's not too early, you should leave Beijing with everyone." ”

Because the time was urgent, when they arranged the plan, they still tried their best to let Zuo Xiang, a civil official, ride the fastest horse and rush to the fiefdom at a speed that did not stop day and night.

But that's not enough.

When Zuo Xiang turned around and was about to leave, the eldest princess suddenly spoke.

"Prime Minister Zuo, Your Majesty still has a little command."

"Huh?"

Rao had some discussions with the eldest princess in advance, but Zuo Xiang was also confused at this time.

According to their plan, there really isn't much going on now.

"Your Majesty told you to take care of the goddess's body after you go to the fiefdom, don't let her work too hard, and when the time stabilizes a little, you must ask the goddess to return to Beijing as soon as possible."

The eldest princess said these words in one breath, and Zuo Xiang guessed the reason for the words.

This is what the Dog Emperor gave him.

In his opinion, it was completely the eldest princess who was worried that the goddess would be stubborn and unwilling to return to Beijing.

But he didn't break it, and took it anyway.

"Yes, the old minister obeys the order and will live up to His Majesty's trust."

Everything was almost explained, but the eldest princess remained in place.

"Zuo Xiang, this palace still has a few words to say."

She deliberately lowered her voice and said in a voice that the two of them could hear.

"The palace has already placed several sons in the mansion, and the guards from Mr. Teaching to the Zuo Prime Minister's Mansion are all credible people."

"As for your wife and Miss An, the emperor also ordered them to be received in the palace this morning, Madame is in the queen's palace at the moment, and Miss An is at Concubine Chen's place, everything is fine."

Listening that his wife and children were all arranged, Zuo Xiang's eyes flashed with tears of excitement.

The treatment of following the eldest princess and doing things for the dog emperor is immediate.

He looked at the eldest princess deeply.

"Thank you, eldest princess."

He also knew a little about the situation in the palace, how could he not know that this was already the eldest princess's greatest consideration for the safety of his family within his ability.

The Dog Emperor wanted to put his sons under house arrest, and the eldest princess arranged guards so that they could carry the Dog Emperor in and out relatively freely.

And his wife is not young, the dog emperor often lingers at Concubine Chen, and his wife is afraid that it will be difficult to deal with, so it is most suitable to be placed in the queen's palace.

As for Qingge, he is at a prime age, and he can talk to Concubine Chen, even if the Dog Emperor is very sexual, he can protect one or two with Concubine Chen.

Everyone in his family was given the best arrangement.

This time, the eldest princess turned slightly sideways, avoiding his thanks.

"Prime Minister Zuo, why do you want to thank me?"

Compared with Zuo Xiang taking the coffin away to the fiefdom to take over the affairs, and leaving all his blood relatives in the capital to dispel the suspicion of the Dog Emperor, and dealing with the Dog Emperor at any time, what he did was really nothing.

She was able to do this by just using some forces in the palace, which was nothing compared to Zuo.

The eldest princess cast her gaze on the coffin carried by sixteen guards not far away.

"Prime Minister Zuo, this palace wishes you to return safely."

"This coffin will only come in handy in a hundred years."

Zuo Xiang smiled modestly and finally saluted.

"The old minister retired."

This brief farewell ceremony can be regarded as the curtain has come to an end.

Zuo Xiang rushed to the fiefdom with people all the way to the fiefdom as quickly as possible.

But even so, when he arrived, it was already a full day and a half.

Ah Cha received the news that Zuo Xiang was about to arrive early, and he was waiting for Zuo Xiang outside the city in advance.

This time, she is still very unaccustomed to standing here in the role reversal.

The same was true of the previous time Tuoba Jun came to greet himself who had just arrived in the fiefdom.

As a result, it didn't take much time for things to happen.

Ah Cha sighed, and a mighty convoy of material transportation broke into his sight.

Then, I saw the coffin that Zuo Xiang was carrying and Zuo Xiang who walked down from the carriage.

"Zuo Xiang, you're here."

"I've seen ......"

Before Zuo Xiang's salute was finished, Ah Cha supported him in time.

"Why should Prime Minister Zuo be polite to me?"

"Since you're here, let's check the current situation with me in the city."

Ah Cha didn't give Zuo Xiang time to refuse, and walked towards the city with a step.

Zuo Xiang was slightly stunned, and then followed.

"Zuo Xiang, you see, now the city has recovered a lot, and the people have temporarily shaken off the previous panic about the flood and rekindled their hopes for life."

Zuo Xiang was silent and did not speak.

He has been in a high position for a long time, and although he has also gone deep into the people to investigate the situation, he has never seen such a scene in his life.

The streets are full of mud-colored traces after the floodwaters, and the crooked roofs can be seen on the people walking at any time.

It looks like a lifeless city after a disaster.

But he also clearly saw the people who spontaneously cleaned the streets, the smoke wafting from the rooftops, and the smiles on the faces of the people.

He finally understood the meaning of Ah Cha's words.

"Goddess, you are great at saving a city that has just experienced a flood to such a point."

was praised suddenly, and Ah Cha was still a little uncomfortable.

"Zuo Xiang laughed, this is just what I should do."

"Speaking of which, I have another interesting phenomenon that I would like to share with Zuo Xiang."

Her Qianqian Su hand pointed directly at the lifeboats not far away, "That's the lifeboat I ordered someone to build before, so that the people can hide in it." ”

"Because I thought that the people might not be used to living in it, I also specially trained the people responsible for maintaining order on each lifeboat, but then none of these people came in handy."

"The people all spontaneously and consciously acted as the maintainers of order, so that there was great harmony in every lifeboat."

"I'm also thinking, maybe this is the real meaning of the improvement of the quality of the people."

From this one thing alone, Ah Cha did feel a lot.

And after listening to it, Zuo Xiang nodded again and again.

"The goddess said that the phenomenon Lao Chen had seen it before, and at that time he thought that this was the most critical point in social life, but he didn't think about it, but now it will reappear again."

"It's just that the old minister has a sentence that I don't know whether to say or not."

Ah Cha nodded, "Zuo Xiang, please speak." ”

"I also hope that the goddess will also give the people a certain amount of space for consciousness in the future, and constantly take measures to improve the quality of the people, so that the people can be as autonomous as possible."

Ah Cha's heart moved slightly, and he aimed his gaze at the left phase.

Only she knows that Zuo Xiang's words are right in her arms.

That's what she intended.

She smiled knowingly, "Then I will ask Lord Zuo Xiang for more advice in the future." ”

As she spoke, she led the left minister to the granary they had temporarily established in the city.

"Zuo Xiang, this is the granary that I specially ordered someone to build temporarily."

"The amount of food in it is not much, it is only enough for the people of the city to eat for three days."

"It is said that famine is most likely to occur after floods, and although there has been no famine so far, it is necessary to prepare for a rainy day."

"I'm leaving here, and you need to dispose of this food properly."

"In addition to this, I have several granaries outside the city, and a road has been built to transport grain to higher ground, and the whole city is heavily guarded."

"In the event of an emergency in the future, the left minister can transfer manpower from outside the city as appropriate, but it is ......"

Ah Cha's words paused, and before she could say anything, Zuo Xiang picked up.

"The goddess is trying to say that you just don't be impulsive."

Ah Cha stared at him for several seconds, but nodded in confusion.

Zuo Xiangchong smiled faintly at her.

"The old minister has been an official for many years, and this truth is naturally very clear."

"The occurrence of famine will cause panic among the people, and the existence of granaries will inevitably lead to the people to rush wildly, and once the situation gets out of control, then the order here will completely collapse."

"The existence of the granary outside the city must be kept as secret as possible, so that no one can know about it in advance, and it must be ensured that it can be used to relieve the people's difficulties at a critical moment."

Listening to his explanation, Ah Cha breathed a deep sigh of relief.

"The left phase is really the same as I thought."
