"Your Majesty, the villain deserves to die, the villain deserves to die! The villain really didn't know the identity of His Majesty, so he took this offense. My father didn't know about this matter, please Your Majesty just execute me alone, bypassing my father's life! " Li Deng said with a runny nose and tears.

To say that this Li Deng is also a bachelor, after knowing Yan Hao's true identity and knowing that he is doomed, he immediately took all the blame on himself, and only wanted to give his father a way out.

Chapter 193

At this time, Li Deng's father, Li Taisu, the prefect of Xuancheng, finally appeared.

"Evil barrier, evil barrier, what have you done!"

The father and son hugged each other and cried.

After crying for a while, Li Taisu seemed to be thinking of Yan Hao, and climbed to Yan Hao's feet: "Your Majesty, it is all because of the criminal minister who has no way to teach his son that he raised such a lawless evil. But the boy really doesn't know the real identity of the emperor. It's just that I'm used to being domineering and domineering. Your Majesty can punish the criminals in any way, but please save the boy's life!"

Yan Hao shook his head, these two guys are father and son, but usually Li Deng bullies the people, Li Taisu doesn't say that he has any connection with him, but he must know about it.In essence, Li Dengzui was mobilizing troops to vent his personal anger, and Li Taizui was conniving and covering up, but it had nothing to do with treason, after all, they didn't know Yan Hao's true identity.

So, if he insisted on characterizing this matter as treason, there would be no problem. After all, it was true that Li Deng led 500 soldiers to surround the emperor, but it would be too cruel to implicate the nine clans.

At this moment, there was another sound of horseshoes and noise in the distance. It turned out that Tang He, the governor of Xuanzhou, also came after hearing the news!

"Your Majesty!" When Tang He saw Yan Hao, he patted his sleeves and knelt on the ground from a long distance away, "The old minister welcomes you!"

This Tang He was also a Beijing official before, so he had seen Yan Hao's appearance, so he knelt down neatly.

And the governor of Xuanzhou, who saw the dignified fourth-rank officials, bowed their heads and ears in front of Yan Hao, and everyone present had no doubts about Yan Hao's identity, and shouted long live my emperor.

At this moment, Tang He walked up to Yan Hao and said in a low voice: "Your Majesty, General Xuanzhou Dutongsi has dispatched [-] elite soldiers to come here. Do you want to let him go back..."

"Don't, don't, don't!" Yan Hao was taken aback when he heard that, but he still wanted to continue private visits in micro-services, if he did this, all his future plans would be ruined.

"Hurry up and inform him that I'm fine here, let him go back and forth wherever he goes!" Yan Hao ordered.

"Your Majesty obeys!" Tang He was about to turn around, hesitated for a moment, and asked cautiously, "How does Your Majesty plan to deal with Li Taisu?"

"What do you think?" Yan Hao was worried. This Tang He happened to be Li Taisu's immediate boss, so it would be good to ask him for his opinion.

"Your Majesty, the behavior of Li Taisu and his son is of course worthy of death. But Weichen has also worked with Li Taisu for a while. Big mistake. If Your Majesty can be lenient, it will also show your benevolence."

"Okay, okay, I understand your opinion." Yan Hao said.

"By the way, Your Majesty, I don't know what your plan is when you come to Jinghu Road, and where will you go next? Do you need to inform the chief political envoy?"

"Don't meddle in your own business!" Yan Hao said angrily, "I'm a private interviewer on a micro-service, do you know that I'm a private interviewer on a micro-service? Today's matter, you should do the aftermath for me! If you leak any of my whereabouts, I will take you as a question!"

"Subordinates understand!" Tang He said knowingly.

"Okay, Li Taisu, I think you have done well as an official, so I will spare your life, but the official will be demoted by two ranks, so you can become an eighth-rank accountant in a small county town!"

"As for Li Deng, I will punish you and send you to the southern border for ten years. No one else will accompany you on the way!"

"Thank you, Lord Long En!" Of course, Li and his son are very grateful.

Chapter 194 Lingling Disaster Situation

When everything was arranged, Yan Hao emphasized again that everyone present must not leak the news of Yan Hao's arrival, and then he ordered everyone to disperse, and he took the three girls and Jade Sword Girls back on the road.

"Oh, it's also Li Taisu's bad luck to have such a son. A good sixth-rank prefect can no longer be a prefect, and he has become a eighth-rank small accountant. What a crime!" Bao Si sighed.

"Hmph, it's not his own fault. The way to be an official is to take care of the people around you first, otherwise you don't know how you will die in the end!" Qi Yun said.

"Okay, okay, even if this matter is over, let's hurry to Lingling and see how the people there are doing!" Yan Hao urged.

……

Originally, Yan Hao was in a good mood along the way, but the closer he got to Lingling County, the more his heart sank.

In several prefectures and counties around Lingling County, houses and farmlands that have been washed away by floods can be seen everywhere, which shows the destructive power of the flood.However, the disaster relief and disaster relief work in these areas has been done very well, so the living conditions of the people are quite good.

But once you step into Lingling County, the situation is completely different.Hunger is everywhere, people are displaced, and all kinds of miserable scenes are unbearable to look at.

Lingling was originally a rich place, but now it has become a vast ocean of water. The crazy floods have submerged all the land that should have been able to be harvested here, and the grain harvest has been completely wiped out, followed by widespread famine.

Not only that, but diseases also thrive in this environment.Under the double threat of disease and hunger, the homeless victims could not get effective assistance, so they could only wander around, looking for everything that could be eaten. Grass roots, bark, and everything they could see were killed by the victims. It was eaten up, and finally there was even a horrific incident of cannibalism.

As for those who can't find anything to eat, the weak can only starve to death in the disaster.The corpses of starved people cannot be buried. In a few cases, some local governments will pay people to collect and bury the corpses, but this is only a very small number. Hao and the others can see the stench of corpses in the open air everywhere!

Along the way, the conversation between Yan Hao and the three daughters became less and less. Yue'er was kind-hearted and had teary eyes all day long. Although Bao Si didn't talk much, everyone could see the boundless gloom hidden deep in her eyes. As for Qi Yun, she has been furious all the time, angrily scolding the chief of the local government for their inaction!

"Your Majesty, what is going on? Why is the situation in the counties near Lingling so different from that in Lingling? It is said that although the disaster in Lingling is serious, the relief work has been going on. Is the situation getting out of control?"

"It's hard to get back, it's hard to get back! The current scene of Lingling is definitely not formed overnight. It is not a day's cold to freeze three feet. There must be a big problem in Lingling County!" Yan Hao said.

What he keenly noticed was that the damaged area of ​​houses and farmland in Lingling County was several times that of Jiangxia County next door!However, Jiangxia County was the place where the flood directly occurred. Logically speaking, it is impossible for Lingling's disaster situation to exceed that of Jiangxia.

There is only one possibility, and that is that Lingling's water conservancy projects and protection measures have completely failed, resulting in no resistance to such severe floods!So how did this failure come about?Behind this is very thought-provoking.

Chapter 195

"Your Majesty, look over there, what does that person want to do?" Yue'er suddenly exclaimed at this moment.

Yan Hao looked forward, and saw a man in ragged clothes was holding an infant baby by the edge of the flooded river. It seemed that he wanted to throw the baby into the river!

"Stop!" Qi Yun hurried forward, snatched the child off, and asked sharply, "Who are you! Why did you harm this baby!"

Seeing that Qi Yun snatched the child, the man didn't get angry or surprised, but had a blank expression on his face: "This is my son. I can't live anymore anyway, and I have nothing for the child to eat. In order not to let the child suffer , it’s better to let him go first, and I will accompany him soon.”

Qi Yun was also stunned when she heard it, she couldn't speak a word because of the bloody tragedy.It was still Bao Si who looked calm at this time, and said to Yue'er next to him, "Sister Yue'er, quickly bring some cakes for them to eat!"

Yue'er quickly took out a few jujube cakes from the package and delivered them to the man.

When the man saw the food, it was like a hungry wolf seeing a lamb, his eyes lit up. He took the jujube cake and swallowed one piece in two mouthfuls. After a short while, he ate all the jujube cake that Yueer gave, and his eyes glowed. And finally recovered.

Yue'er hurriedly took out some more yuan for him, and fed the baby in Qi Yun's arms a few mouthfuls of white fungus soup.

Yan Hao came over and asked, "What's your name? Where is your home? Where did the child's mother go?"

"Mother, the child is already starving to death!" the man said sadly, "The villain's name is Liu Fugui, and he comes from Liujia Village in Donghu County. His mother couldn't hold on, and left three days ago."

"Xiaomei! You have a spirit in the sky. Lu'er and I met a benefactor. If only you lasted for two days!" The man wailed in pain.

"Benefactor, I think you are also a son of a rich family. Why do you come to Lingling to ask for trouble? If you go further, even if you have money, you may not be able to buy food!" The man reminded Yan Hao after calming down.

But Yan Hao said: "Liu Fugui, right? To tell you the truth, I came this time to help the victims. You might as well take me back to your village to have a look. Maybe I can help you. The place."

After hearing this, Liu Fugui opened his eyes wide and looked at Yan Hao. After a long while, he nodded and said, "My lord, you are so kind! It's just that the situation in our Liujia Village is worse than here. Please benefactor, be mentally prepared!"

So under the leadership of Liu Fugui, Yan Hao and others went straight to Liujia Village, Donghu County.

After entering Liujia Village, Yan Hao found that this was indeed the hardest-hit area, with damaged houses, women and children begging, and wailing old people everywhere.
