By the steaming cauldron, Xiuniang was so busy that she was sweating and her back hurting, but she still smiled and gave porridge to the hungry people.

After the hungry people took the porridge from her, they all left with great gratitude.

Guo Wei sighed when he saw it, and said to Lin:

"Xiu'er is willing to give alms, so let her continue to give porridge, but in the evening, the prince may come over and let her wash up and dress up earlier."

"What, the prince won't return to the palace tonight?" Lin exclaimed.

"His Royal Highness said that he will not return for the time being, and tomorrow morning, he will go to the neighboring counties to inspect."

"But so dangerous?"

"It's okay, except for Fan Hu's three hundred thousand Niu Wei, I asked Rui'er to lead two thousand forbidden troops to accompany me, and there is no problem with security." Guo Wei is confident.

"Oh, that's good." Lin nodded, followed behind Guo Wei, and walked towards the porridge factory.

……

Twilight falls.

Outside the east gate of the city, whether it is officials, officials, soldiers, disaster relief personnel, or tens of thousands of victims, they all drink porridge and gnaw on their nests inside and outside their tents.

In the midst of a crowd of hungry people sitting and drinking porridge, an old man suddenly stood up.

The old man slowly walked to the front of the prince's tent, turned to face the hungry people and said loudly:

"If you receive the grace of a drop of water, you should repay it with a spring! My generation has been blessed by the current prince, how can I make up for it? In the future, everyone will be safe and do nothing! ”

Then, he sang generously, it should be a local folk song, and the song was sad!

Tens of thousands of people present burst into tears.

Yuan Zhi was also sour when he heard it.

"The sky is ruthless, the people's livelihood is difficult, we have read the books of the sages, but we have done nothing, ashamed, ashamed!"

On the edge of the shack for the hungry, there were a few Confucian scholars standing in the distance.

The first man, nearly fifty years old, wore a square scarf and a straight shirt, although it was old, it was very clean, with a long beard and a clear face.

The old man among the victims sang and sang, his eyes filled with tears, and he just looked up to the sky and sighed.

Beside him, there were two middle-aged men, both in their forties, listening to the sad songs, and they were also moved.

One of the Confucian scholars sighed:

"Indeed, hundreds of thousands of victims, if it weren't for the prince raising his arms and shouting, the court and the famous families would have given porridge one after another, and the consequences would be unimaginable."

"Looking at the number of hungry people at the moment, I'm afraid that there are millions of victims in several state capitals, I don't know what about those disaster victims?"

Seeing that the two Confucian scholars blamed themselves and sighed, another middle-aged Confucian student persuaded:

"Mr. Kong, Mr. Fang, why do you blame yourself, these days of hard work and hard work are obvious to all, and the Confucian scholars are worthy of their hearts."

These three people are the great Confucians in the hall of Beijing Normal University, and the leader is Confucianism and Confucius.

That is, the prince Yuanzhi saw the 'slamming' grain buyer at the mouth of the grain market in Chuanji Bridge.

The two around him are Fang Zhiyao and Xu Zhuxin, the Confucian instructors of the University Hall.

As soon as the hungry people gathered under the capital, Confucius took the lead in mobilizing Confucian teachers and students in the university hall to run around the capital, calling on the wealthy government to set up porridge factories outside the city to help the people.

He and more than a dozen Confucian scholars raised funds to build a porridge shed to relieve the victims.

In these days, in order to prepare for disaster relief money and food, Kong Xuesi has suffered countless blank eyes.

The Li family in the south of the city was originally a wealthy family, and there were thousands of acres of fertile land in the state capital outside the city, and there were many rice shops in the capital state capital.

But after Kong Xuesi found Li Huchen, he refused because he had a large family.

Even the outsiders who read the books of the sages and sages have this attitude, and those businessmen who do not read much are even more insensitive, and they also take the opportunity to raise prices.

Therefore, Kong Xuesi and others have been running around for a long time and have gained little.

He lamented that the world was hot and cold, and the people were not able to make a living.

is still the crown prince, he raised his arms and shouted, after the god of war, the Guo family responded positively, and the court followed, and the situation suddenly opened up.

I used to hear that the prince was cruel and immoral, and he was bloody and killed.

But there was a disaster relief scene in front of him, orderly and orderly, which made Kong Xuesi and others unbelievable.

If you hadn't seen it with your own eyes, you wouldn't have believed it.

For this reason, he sent many Confucian scholars to the suburbs and counties on the outskirts of the city that were far away from Beijing, and not just superficial.

Several people came all the way, and on the way, they were surprised to find that the place was in order.

In the past, during the disaster months every year, the hellish scenes of starvation are now basically gone.

The soldiers patrolled the area, all the bones were buried, and the hungry people just helped the old and the young, with hope in their eyes, and gathered at the resettlement site.

The so-called hungry people all spoke with various accents: "Today, the prince is benevolent and righteous, and he has set up porridge factories in various places, and we are all going to live!" ”

When I arrived at the east gate of Jingshi City, I saw a larger scale of hungry people, the number of whom was nearly 100,000, but everyone was happy, and everyone could save their lives.

The future crown princess also gave porridge in person, and several people were surprised, and when they heard the sad songs and ballads of the old man, Kong Xuesi sighed with feelings.

At this time, the prince heard the news and walked out of the Chinese military camp tent, and first saw Kong Xuesi and a few people.

He couldn't help but be taken aback.

The Confucian student at the head was not the one he had seen in the grain market a few days ago.

"Lone recognizes this Confucian scholar from the Beijing Normal University Hall, what is his name?" The prince asked.

"Your Highness, the minister recognizes that his name is Kong Xuesi, and he is one of the great Confucians in Beijing."

Xu Xinchun said.

"Let's go, go up with Gu to meet this great Confucian."

As he spoke, Yuan Zhi took the ministers out of the tent and walked towards Kong Xuesi and the others.

Respecting teachers and valuing education is the virtue of the monarchs of all dynasties, and it is also the best time to buy the hearts of the people.

What's more, this great Confucian scholar is very respectful from the bottom of his heart.

Kong Xuesi had never seen the prince, but looking at this posture, he came out of the prince's tent again, and knew that the prince himself had come.

"Kong Xuesi of the Beijing Normal School, etc., meet His Royal Highness the Prince." Kong Xuesi and the other three didn't wait for the prince to approach, so they knelt down on their knees and made a great salute to the monarch and ministers.

"Sir, please."

Yuan Zhi took two steps forward, stretched out his hands and bent down, and personally helped Kong Xuesi up.

Seeing this, Xu Xinchun and the others hurriedly stepped forward to help Fang Zhiyao and Xu Zhuxin up.

"Several gentlemen came to the disaster area to help the victims, and they were very touched by Lonely, which shows that the practical things that the court has done for the people are still insufficient."

Yuan Zhi sighed in person, and also made a self-examination, which is really commendable, and the ministers present all showed a look of astonishment.

The crown prince is the prince of a country, and he supervises the country on behalf of the Son of Heaven, so condescending and humble, it is rare to be a corporal of courtesy.

Seeing this, Kong Xuesi hurriedly bowed to the prince and said loudly:

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince doesn't have to blame himself, such a disaster relief scene, the old man has never seen it in his life, so far, the old man has thanked His Royal Highness the Crown Prince on behalf of these victims, His Royal Highness is young and promising, so gracious, saving dozens or millions of victims in dire straits, it is really virtuous and righteous, and it will be famous all over the world!"
