"What you see is just the tip of the iceberg, and the most severely affected is the slum area of Xicheng that you just bought, and the embankment of Xicheng in the lower reaches of the Wei River has been washed away, and hundreds of families have even washed away their houses dozens of miles away."

Bai Song's face was in an uproar!

According to Bai Song's experience, last night's rain was indeed very heavy, but in modern memory, he had experienced such heavy rain many times, but it was far from the level of a flood.

But ancient cities were too fragile to withstand the test of nature, especially in summer, when a heavy rain would almost certainly lead to a flood, and looking at the indifferent expressions of pedestrians and officers and soldiers on the road, it seemed that they had long been accustomed to such a scene.

"Bai Song!"

Suddenly, an exclamation interrupted the conversation between Bai Song and White Bee.

It was Jiang Yu who ran towards Bai Song.

Lord Jiang was wearing an official uniform today, covered in rain, and for some reason he was very excited, and he didn't even care about the official hat falling off on the way over, and grabbed Bai Song's hand.

Bai Song was taken aback: "Master Jiang, what's wrong?" ”

"Something's wrong! Something happened! Jiang Yu was panting and couldn't understand what he said.

"What's wrong? Is it a flood? ”

"It's not just floods! Yes...... Yes...... Someone is missing! ”

"Someone is missing?" Bai Song couldn't figure it out for a while, and said in his heart that under the flood, there were still fewer people who didn't see it?

Jiang Yu gasped and continued: "You have a lot of industries under your name, and you have a lot of guys in your hands, hurry up and let your guys find them." ”

After speaking, he stuffed the stacked notices into Bai Song's hand.

Bai Song saw that the notice was a portrait of a young girl, which was extremely beautiful, and the most striking thing was that her eyebrows were a little burning cloud.

Ancient portraits are not sketches, and it is difficult to distinguish a person from the portrait.

I don't know if these portraits are from the hand of a painter, but several paintings look a little different, the only thing that is the same is a little red on the eyebrows.

"Is this a person?" Bai Song asked.

"You don't care so much, hurry up and let your people find it! As long as you see a young girl with a petal-like birthmark on her eyebrows, she is her! The person is missing in the Xicheng you bought, and you must be responsible for this matter to the end! ”

"Master Jiang, you're a little unreasonable! This ......"

"I don't have time to listen to you! Hurry up and look for it, and find this official who exempts you from Xicheng 10,000 taels...... No, as long as I find this person, I don't want all the 100,000 taels! ”

When Bai Song heard this, he saluted: "Received!" Rest assured! ”

Find someone worth 100,000 taels?

How can this business not be done?

Bai Song turned around and was about to go home, took a step and came back: "My lord, who is this person?" Could it be the illegitimate daughter of an adult? ”

"Presumptuous! This is Princess Runan! Summer trip to Youzhou, the day before yesterday to Xicheng encountered heavy rain, has not returned! ”

Princess Runan!

Isn't it Tang Taizong's second daughter?

There are few historical records, and it is said that he died early.

It can't be folded in the water of Jixian County, right?

Bai Song thought about it for a while, and saw that Master Jiang was so anxious that his beard was about to burn, and he knew that this matter was very important, so he didn't say more, anyway, he did his best, he could find it, and if he couldn't find it, he might be able to see what the princess looked like.

Bai Song returned home, passed the news out, and asked his men to go out and post the notice, as long as they found the person on the notice, they would be rewarded with a hundred taels of silver.

Jiang Yu has already said that the person was lost in Xicheng.

Bai Song himself and White Bee went directly to Xicheng.

But when people arrived in Xicheng, they found that not to mention entering Xicheng, the entire flower street had been flooded, and one of the flower buildings had been washed away by the flood.

Now the water has not receded, and countless people can't enter Xicheng at the entrance of Huajie. I could only watch Xicheng soaking in the water, and from time to time I could see one or two people calling for help in the water, but no one could do anything.

The world was shrouded in misery, and Bai Song felt for the first time the insignificance of human power in front of nature.

The embankment of the Xicheng River was destroyed, and the land fell off layer by layer under the washing of the river, while the officers and soldiers and civilians on the other side of the river could only watch in amazement, and the contingent of thousands of people stood silently on the edge of the Wei River.

……

After another day, the flood waters receded and the Wei River waterline was back in a safe position. But it left the world in shambles.

Bai Song has put aside the matter of finding the princess, and it is more important to appease the survivors than to find someone.

God seems to know that Bai Song has made a development plan for Xicheng, and directly destroyed Xicheng with a rain.

Bai Song spent a day contacting the major families in Jixian County, saying that the major families would open warehouses and release grain to appease the people of the county.

There is not much food that can be used in Jixian County, but this is one thing that has to be done.

At noon on the same day, on the ruins of Xicheng, there was a long queue of porridge shops under the straw hut, and after the heavy water washed, the loess road in Xicheng was painted with a layer of oil black, with a variety of flavors.

And more often than not, the moans and cries of the people for the rest of their lives.

The porridge shop was jointly opened by the Bai family and the Chen family, and although most of the families verbally agreed to release grain, only the Bai family and the Chen family acted so quickly.

Bai Song looked at the scene in Xicheng, and felt a lot of emotion in his heart, beside him was Miss Chen's pity, and she also went to the most severely affected area for the first time.

After this incident, Bai Song had a better impression of Chen Xirong, if it wasn't for the Chen family to take the lead in making a statement, I'm afraid that no big family would be willing to support him to open a warehouse and release grain.

"Miss Chen, I really want to thank you this time."

It is rare that Bai Song took the initiative to say words of thanks.

Chen Xirong was personally making porridge for the people, and when he heard this, he couldn't help but smile, and looked back at Bai Song: "It's not that I have a good heart, it's just that I will repay you for giving the Chen family five thousand taels of silver to come back." ”

Bai Song didn't explain much, pointed to the dead wooden stake on the side, and remembered that this place was the entrance to Dregs Street, connecting Xicheng and Flower Street, where he first met the Turkic prince and had a fight with him here.

And now, except for the dead wood stakes, everything else has been washed away.

Bai Song sighed silently on the side, but he didn't pay attention to the periphery of the crowd, a handsome boy wearing a square hat followed a man with three or five thick men silently watching the crowd.

The handsome boy spoke in a beautiful voice: "I didn't expect that there were scholars in Jixian County who were so quick and decisive, and as soon as the flood receded, they began to give porridge." ”

"It seems that this Lord Jiang is indeed well-governed, and in just half a year, the folk customs of Jixian County have changed so much."

"I heard that the rice grain around Jixian County is different from other places, and the fields I saw when I came were unusually lush, all of which were planted by the Bai family, is the grain released by their family different from other families? Why don't I try it too? ”

"No, how can you ...... the princess's daughter?"
