"No... It's nothing ......" Tang Zhousheng looked embarrassed, raised his hand to wipe the beads of sweat from his forehead, and said in a low voice, "Xia Guan is just afraid that the realm is very filthy and dirty Lord Shen's clothes." ”

Shen Ji smiled at the corner of his mouth, and looked at him quietly to justify himself.

"But a piece of clothing, if you can do something for the people, it is worth the trip." Shen Ji sat across from him, looking at him with an uncertain look in his eyes.

Tang Zhousheng swallowed his saliva, and finally realized that the man in front of him was not good, and he was not passing by by accident.

"Tang County Commander is the parent official of the people, and he must have been disturbed by the flood, and the disaster is uncertain, and Tang County Commander is not sure, right?"

Shen Ji's words were like a boulder, pressing on Tang Zhousheng's heart, making him breathless.

Tang Zhousheng couldn't guess the meaning of his words, and he couldn't figure out the purpose of his trip.

There was no rumor in the capital, and I don't know if this Lord Shen was ordered to come to inspect......

Tang Zhousheng gritted his back molars and forced out a smile, "That's natural, the disaster is serious, the refugees are displaced, and it also affects the hearts of the lower officials." ”

Shen Ji raised his eyebrows slightly, the smile on his lips was still gentle, and the eyes that looked at him were full of interest.

After a lunch, Tang Zhousheng can be said to be sitting on pins and needles, and he has to catch a glimpse of Shen Ji from time to time.

Shen Ji's face did not change, he lightly raised his long eyelashes and glanced at him, and the corners of his mouth hooked upward.

After lunch, the two of them left the inn one after the other and walked in the direction of the carriage.

"Lord Shen......" Tang Zhousheng looked at the man's back, thought about it again, and still asked, "The refugees have no houses, no land, and it is difficult to control their emotions, and there will be riots at both ends in three days, if the adults pass, I am afraid it will be ......."

"It doesn't matter." Shen Ji turned his back to him, he couldn't see his appearance clearly, and his tone was light, and he couldn't hear half of his emotions.

Tang Zhousheng tugged at the corners of his mouth, and wanted to say something, but saw Shen Ji speed up his steps and get into the carriage.

At this point, Tang Zhousheng understood that he was just wasting his tongue if he said that he had broken the sky, his eyes were deep, and he turned back to his carriage.

-

Zhuozhou border

The two carriages stopped halfway up the mountain, Wen Mo put down the footstool first, and asked Mr. to get off.

Shen Ji stood firm, lowered his eyes, and his heart sank.

The sky was sinking terribly, and everywhere I looked, there were yellow streams, houses were overturned, crops were destroyed, the corpses of domestic animals were floating on the sewage, and the people were crowded on the opposite hill, crying and scolding God.

The flood was still rising, the sky seemed to be raining, the people were exhausted, and the mountains were full of weeping.

Every winter, the people in Zhuangzi are hard, and many people have to die.

But these people who are still alive today are all people who have survived the winter, and finally ushered in early spring, but they were washed away by the flood to live the hope of life.

With the crops gone, the houses falling, how can these people earn a living?

"Sir......" Wen Mo's heart was cold, and he looked at the man beside him, "How can you ...... here?"

"Lord Shen." Tang Zhousheng chased after him, and his fat body made it extremely difficult for him to run, "Adults, don't get close to those refugees, in case they target ......"

Before he finished speaking, Tang Zhousheng saw the man who had been silent turning his head and staring at him.

The words that came to his mouth were so stuck, Tang Zhou Sheng looked at him stupidly, and he didn't dare to gasp.

"Can the Tang County Order answer the official's confusion, why didn't you see a porridge shack on the road?" Shen Ji narrowed his eyes, his face was gloomy, "Where did all the disaster relief funds allocated by the imperial court go?" ”

Tang Zhousheng's face changed suddenly, and he said in a low voice, "In order to let the people have a place to live, the disaster relief funds have been invested in reconstruction. ”

"A good one so that the people have a place to live." Shen Ji frowned slightly, turned his head to look at him, his eyes were very cold, "The people are starving to death, can they still live in the house prepared by the Tang County Order?" ”

Tang Zhousheng lowered his head and hurriedly spoke, "The adults are angry, and the lower officials know their mistakes." ”

"Within a quarter of an hour, if I can't see the porridge shed, can the Tang County Order know what the consequences are?"

Shen Ji's words came out, Tang Zhousheng's body stiffened, and the coolness rushed from the soles of his feet to the top of his head.

"Lord Shen, rest assured, Xia Guan will definitely be able to do this well!" Tang Zhousheng lowered his head and responded in a deep voice.

Shen Ji waited quietly, and within a moment, a porridge shed was erected on the opposite hill.

When the people saw that they finally had something to eat, their anger was a little less, and although they were hungry, they did not fight or grab, and let the old man and the children go to get the porridge first.

The time is short, the porridge has not yet been cooked, but the aroma that wafts out affects the hearts of every people.

After another half an hour, the old people and children at the front of the queue received hot porridge one after another.

"Lord Shen, are you satisfied?" Tangzhou rushed back, with beads of sweat on his forehead and a flattering smile.

Shen Ji bowed his head, his face softened, "The disaster is serious, I ......"

didn't wait for Shen Ji to finish speaking, something happened on the other side again.

A girl didn't care about the rice porridge burning her mouth, so she blew it and poured it into her mouth, and just drank a sip, she spit it out.

"Oh my, this is food!"

"Zhang Fu's family, why aren't you optimistic about your Yingzi? Such a good porridge let her be trampled in vain! ”

"God kills, if you don't build food for nothing, you will be damned!"

The woman next to the girl also blushed angrily, raised her hand and slapped her ass twice, crying and scolding, "You dead girl, what are you doing with good porridge?" ”

The man on the side also felt ashamed, his face turned cold, and he scolded in a deep voice, "Lose money, I knew that it would be better to eat her bowl for me!" ”

The girl was very thin, her cheeks were sunken, she was hungry and tired, and she was beaten, and she couldn't hold back and cried for a while, "Dad, mother, it's not that I want to vomit, it's that there are stones in that porridge!" ”

The little girl's voice was extremely penetrating, exploding in the crowd, and the rest of the people didn't care about the excitement and hurriedly checked the white porridge in their bowls.

A boy stirred the white porridge with his fingers, and when he saw the contents of it, his face suddenly changed, he screamed, and hid in the arms of the woman beside him, "Mother, there is a mouse tail in the porridge!" ”

As soon as these words came out, the people couldn't bear it anymore, threw the bowls in their hands one after another, and rushed to the porridge shed to scuffle with several officers and soldiers who were cooking porridge.

The officers and soldiers were taken aback by the sudden outburst of civilians, and drew their long knives, trying to suppress their momentum.

The people have been suppressed for a long time, and they are afraid of the knife and dare not step forward, so the two sides are deadlocked.

The female doll named Yingzi hid in the crowd, and when she saw that the officers and soldiers were triumphant, and the uncles in the village dared to be angry and dare not speak, her head was hot, and she rushed out of the crowd with her legs and hit the knife directly.

The small body was lying on the ground, and the wound on the neck was still oozing blood.

"Yingzi!"

"You dare to kill!"

"She's a child, you're going to get retribution!"

Yingzi's death became the fuse, breaking the last shred of reason of the people, no longer fearing the officers and soldiers, and scuffling with them.
