Chapter 082 Disaster Relief Porridge Factory, Disaster Relief Resettlement Area
In the past, the military department was controlled by their Cao Fu traitorous party, and the armory was their spare warehouse, and the accounts were seamless, and there was no way to find out the flow at all.
Yuan Zhi nodded, suddenly laughed, and said in a deep voice:
"Forget it, don't waste any more effort, this matter is a lesson, we will strengthen security in the future, the enemy is too strong, if the conditions allow, they will remove the heavy weapons such as the Eight Bull Crossbow and the Car Crossbow from the arsenal for use."
"The secret guard side must increase its efforts to seize the secret arsenal of the traitor group in the capital, now that the military department is in our hands, if they can have a legal identity in the past, in the future, it will be impossible, with Lone's guess, they will definitely have to re-establish a secret arsenal."
"At that time, please ask the Ministry of War to carry out an inventory of the arsenals in the capital and the surrounding areas, strike at the grass and startle the snakes, let them expose their targets, and secretly guard them to find out the melons, and strive to wipe them out and eliminate hidden dangers."
"Your Highness is wise, and the slave and maid understand, and they will definitely obey the order to the letter."
"Well, it's nothing, everyone is gone! Gao Jin, the sacrificed thousand cattle guards, notify the family, the body is properly buried, enter the martyrs' shrine to erect a monument, and issue double pensions. ”
"Yes."
Everyone bowed their hands and watched the prince leave the palace.
……
Prince Bathhouse.
Yuan Zhi soaked in the hot water of the bathtub, rested his head on the knees of the concubine Luanfeng, and closed his eyes to recuperate.
In the bathhouse, those who served the prince in the bath were still Luan Feng and Xiao Cui.
Last time, Luan Feng and Xiao Cui were both fortunate by the crown prince one after another, and their identities suddenly changed.
Both of them were promoted to concubines, and both of them were registered as the head of the East Palace, Gao Jin, and reported to the Royal Zongren Mansion.
The crown prince is different from ordinary princes, and the woman he is fortunate to be in charge must declare himself to the head of the chamberlain, and then his identity will be determined by the investigation of the Zongren Mansion, in case he is pregnant, it is the prince's child.
If it is a prince, maybe a future prince, or an heir to the throne, it must ensure the royal orthodox bloodline.
Although Luan Feng and Xiaocui are concubines, they still adhere to their duties as female officials, especially in matters such as bathing, and they are willing to serve in person.
The first is to increase the relationship with the prince, in order to rise again in the future, and seek the status of a beauty and a concubine.
Second, of course, it is to prevent the actual palace from taking advantage of the situation to compete for favor.
The harem competition is equally fierce and cruel.
……
Since the crown prince gathered on the first day of August, the entire imperial court, Jingzhao Yin Mansion, and various wealthy families have mobilized. In just three days, hundreds of porridge factories and porridge sheds have been built in a radius of dozens of miles outside the capital.
Those porridge factories are large-scale, with at least a dozen large pots of porridge in them, which can solve thousands of disaster victims every day.
The Yamen of the Commander-in-Chief of the Beijing Division for Disaster Relief and Relief was established, and the commander-in-chief was responsible for the military and political affairs of the disaster relief, responsible for the security of the suburbs and counties of the Beijing Division, the distribution of disaster relief materials, and the construction of porridge factories and living quarters for the victims.
This disaster relief commander-in-chief is, of course, concurrently served by the great Sima Guo Wei.
The royal family sent a condolence group headed by the King of Jin to visit the disaster area to appease the people, and Cao Qichang, Yang Du and others gave advice to the King of Jin and organized the linkage of various yamen, which was highly effective and attracted the attention of Yuan Zhi.
This is the first joint action between the East House and the Cabinet in unison.
More than 100,000 victims poured in, and the pressure on Jingshi was indeed great.
However, with the increasing number of porridge factories and resettlement areas for the victims, the people's grievances gradually subsided.
In addition to the government-run porridge factory, the Zhan Mansion of the East Palace posted notices to mobilize wealthy families and wealthy families to donate money, materials and food, or set up porridge factories outside the city.
In addition to the construction of a porridge factory for disaster relief, security is also a major issue in the resettlement areas for the victims.
Guo Wei's side promptly arrested dozens of extremists who fanned the flames, and solved the danger factor of the riot.
His Excellency ordered the establishment of a nursing home under the Jingzhaojun Mansion, which was responsible for sheltering the victims of the disaster and providing for the orphaned, poor, disabled and helpless.
A mound was also set up to bury the bones of the remains. In the early days, hungry people gathered under the capital, and because of the lack of relief, many people died of starvation.
In the past, burying a corpse required dozens of dollars.
There were too many hungry people to die, and where could the yamen under the Jingzhao Yin Mansion be buried, and the corpses were just thrown into the river and on the wilderness, at the mercy of dogs, crows, and goshawks.
However, this is prone to disease.
For this reason, the prince strictly ordered Guo Wei to let the forbidden army send a number of small detachments to patrol the rivers, barren mountains and mountains, and there were corpses of victims who died of disease and starvation in the territory, and collectively dug pits and buried them.
The corpses on all rivers and rivers must all be fished out and buried deeply, and none of them can be left behind.
This is not only due to humanitarian considerations, but also because the water source of the river is polluted, and it is a widespread plague.
That's a big deal.
In ancient times, the spread of plague over the years was extremely harmful to the government and the people, and it was more serious than floods.
Natural disasters are often followed by plagues.
The two worlds are the Yuan Zhi of people, this is very clear, he must take precautions before it happens, and strictly order Guo Wei to pay attention to this matter.
The cabinet demanded that the porridge boiled in a pot should meet the standard of "inserting chopsticks and not falling down, and unwrapping the cloth bag without falling apart".
This kind of porridge, even if the hungry people fall to the ground with rice soup, and then use thin porridge to continue to eat, ten people can save five or six, close to the hungry people, can be saved.
At the same time, the scale of the porridge factory is expanding, and a large porridge factory can accommodate 3,000 people to eat porridge at the same time.
The hungry people who came to the capital before have become more and more vibrant, and the hungry people who arrived in the latter can also live.
For a time, the hungry people were grateful to the imperial court, and they also avoided these hungry people from becoming rogues and harming the people.
Guo Wei received the prince's order from the first day of August to go to the outskirts of the city to quell the riots, and at the same time, set up a command envoy yamen for disaster relief and relief in Beijing, which was very busy.
He had to stay outside the city for long periods of time.
But he did not forget to respond to the prince's call for disaster relief, let his eldest son Guo Rui return home, and mobilized Guo's family members to come out to set up a porridge factory for disaster relief.
Guo Rui returned to the Dingguo Mansion and informed his father of his father's order with his mother Lin, his wife Tian, and his third sister Xiuniang.
"Evil, I heard that the flood in Henan and Huai, coupled with the drought in Shaanxi and Gansu, starved to death countless people, and I heard that on the edge of the Hunhe River, there are corpses everywhere, and they are discarded in the water, it is really miserable."
When the housewife Lin heard this, she said:
"I heard that as many as tens of thousands of hungry people are coming today, and there are nearly 200,000 hungry people outside the city, can Jingshi come to the relief?"
Guo Rui sighed: "My father is doing his best to control the situation, mainly because the porridge shed of the porridge factory must be fast, and there is a shortage of manpower, so he can only do his best!" ”
Guo Xiuniang said: "Big brother, it is a great act of kindness to help the victims, Xiuniang responded to the imperial edict and my father's instructions, so I organized the Guo family's daughters and other sisters in the official family to build the largest porridge factory at their own expense." ”
Lin said: "Yes, Xiu'er is right, our Dingguo government's positive response this time is for the prince of the prison country, and the second is for the comeback of your father and son, our porridge factory is called Guo's Disaster Relief Porridge Factory." ”
