"You..." The maid was furious, thinking that their young lady is the most popular in the Jiangnan area, from high-ranking officials and dignitaries, down to scholars who have not entered official positions, everyone bows down to her young lady. Under talent!

"You bumpkin who has never seen the world!" The maid snorted angrily, turned around and left.

As soon as the guard saw her leave, he retreated to his original position.

Zhu Xu naturally got up early, tidied up and just opened the door.

The guards immediately turned their heads and bowed to signal.

Zhu Xu waved his hand, glanced at the back of the maid entering the door, and said, "Have your heads returned yet?"

One of the imperial guards hurriedly said: "Go back to your son, and go to check what you explained. It may take a while."

Zhu Xu nodded slightly, Cao Bianjiao was going to check the specific situation of the disaster relief.

"Come on, go to the nearby disaster relief site and see if we can have breakfast together." Zhu Xu lifted his foot and went out.

"Yes." A group of guards followed.

Cao Huachun greeted him at the door, and said in a low voice, "My lord, someone is spying on our fleet."

Zhu Xu smiled and waved his hands, and said, "It's okay, let the stand-in live normally, and go out for a walk if there's nothing to do, just keep it so far away that people can't see clearly."

Cao Huachun understood, and said, "Yes."

"Let's go." Zhu Xu said.

There is no disaster relief site in the town, so we have to go to Tai'an City.

In Gu Hengbo's room, he was also startled when he heard the maid's reply, and said, "You said, he didn't see me, or even you?"

The maid was quite indignant, and said: "Yes, Miss, I think he must be a bumpkin from the north, and I don't even know who Miss is."

Gu Hengbo's expression remained unchanged, he nodded thoughtfully, and said, "It's fine if you don't see me, Mr. Gong has already arrived in Jinan, please write to me to invite me to see the spring, pack your luggage, and leave now."

The maid pursed her lips and smiled, "Good miss."

Sitting in the carriage, Zhu Xu said: "Old Cao, make arrangements, I plan to visit Jinan." Tai'an is just a corner, not representative, as the capital of Shandong Province, Jinan should be able to explain a lot of problems.

"Yes." Cao Huachun responded.Although it can't be said to be a wolf's lair, the emperor still needs to ensure safety when traveling. There are too many things to arrange. With the lessons from last time, the arrangements are now more stringent.

It is said to be a county seat, but in fact Tai'an is a state under the jurisdiction of Jinan Prefecture. It is not big and the population is not large.

Now it is the slack season, and there are not many people coming and going in the county. Perhaps there was a banditry before, and the people here gave Zhu Xu a feeling of "listlessness", without the "vigor" of the capital.

Zhu Xu and others got out of the carriage and were let in after being interrogated for a few words at the gate of the city.

The imperial guards had found out where the disaster relief point was, and they took Zhu Xu and his party there.

In Zhu Xu's mouth, it is disaster relief, but the actual name is "congee soup shed". In front of a big yard, a big shed is built, and there is a very long queue.

"For you, a bowl of porridge, a sweet potato, and a steamed bun."

"Your, after eating the sweet potatoes in the box, put the bowl there, there is only one steamed bun, and you can get the porridge again..."

There were five people working there, and the victims went from east to west, receiving porridge, sweet potatoes, and then steamed buns, squatting not far away to finish eating, and returning the bowls.

On both sides of the gate of the courtyard, there were seven or eight government servants, who looked around vigilantly, and took a few extra glances at Zhu Xu and his group.

Zhu Xu looked at it not far away for a while, and said strangely: "That's right, did the news leak out?"

Cao Huachun's expression was a little strange, and he said, "Young master, don't worry, today is at the back."

"Behind?"

Zhu Xu was startled, a little confused, so he watched patiently.

When the porridge and steamed buns are gone, they will be moved out of the yard soon.There are more than 200 victims, and now only a small part of the work has been done.

A pair of half-centenarians who were obviously grandparents and a little girl of four or five years old squeezed forward. The old man was quite anxious, but the little girl looked curious.

The old man seemed a little dirty, but the little granddaughter was very clean.

"Master, two bowls of porridge, two steamed buns, and two sweet potatoes." The old man said to the young man who distributed them.

The young man frowned when he saw the old man, and said with some dissatisfaction: "Old man, this is to save the lives of the victims. Look behind you, there are still many people. Every day is not enough. You are not..."

Hearing this, the old man quickly said with a smile: "My granddaughter has come to see me, so I want to treat her to dinner. She has been hungry for a long time, please..."

The young man looked at the old man, then at the little girl, frowned and still served him porridge, muttering in his mouth not knowing what he was talking about.

The old man didn't care, took the bowl, handed it to the little girl, and said with a smile: "Come on, drink it, this is polenta porridge, it's delicious."

The little girl blinked and was about to drink while holding the bowl.

Snapped!

Suddenly, a horse whip came over and hit the little girl directly, and the bowl of porridge fell to the ground.

With a wow sound, the little girl folded her arms and threw herself into the arms of the old man, crying loudly.

An arrogant young man came over, pointed at the old man with a horsewhip and yelled, "Old man, it's you again, you have so many homes, and you still come to grab the relief of the victims, you don't want to live..."

Chapter 619

The old man's face changed slightly, and he smiled stiffly: "Mr. Feng, my granddaughter came to see me, so I want a share..."

The young man was fifteen or sixteen years old, with an overly drunken face, he spit thick phlegm on the old man with a bah sound, and said loudly: "I don't look down on people like you, who eat what's in the bowl and look at what's in the pot, get out of here!" , if you don’t get out, I’ll kill you!”

The old man's face changed, and he looked at the crying granddaughter in his arms again. His eyes were cloudy, and he hugged his granddaughter and left with a stiff smile.

"Come on, pretend for me!" The young man waved his whip and said arrogantly.

The servants behind him rushed over immediately, and put the drums and large boxes from the disaster relief site directly onto the carriage.

Those yamen servants and people at the disaster relief site turned a blind eye.

Zhu Xu had a panoramic view of everything, and said calmly, "Is this what you said, wait and see?"

Cao Huachun nodded slightly. Just as he was about to speak, the crowd of onlookers started talking in low voices not far from Zhu Xu.

"Young Master Feng really came to snatch it again..."

"Hey, whoever told him that he was the son of Zhizhou, who would dare to stop him if he wanted to rob him, would he turn a blind eye if he didn't see those officials..."

"It's a good excuse to prevent unruly people from looting, and to go to the state government to serve porridge, but I have never seen it out..."

"Who said it didn't happen, there are always leftovers thrown out at night, and I don't know how many disaster victims from other places are waiting there..."
