Zero Court

Before the sunset was over, the two of them arrived at the county gate in front of Qingping County.

The hungry, sallow and emaciated guards were resting against the wall, squinting their eyes.The gates of the city are almost all victims in ragged clothes.

There was no riot, no discontent.Because other villages have heard the news that the government has shipped relief food.So they just wait here numbly.Waiting for hope, waiting for salvation.

The two dismounted one after the other.Hao He pursed his lips and said nothing.Yan Ting knew that he must not understand these things.Just shook his hand, let him feel the warmth.Then he led him to the gate of the city.

The two wore clean clothes, and their aristocratic temperament and handsome appearance still caused a little commotion.But when there is no food to eat, even if you can see Tianyan, you can't be full.

Yan Ting led the horse in one hand and Hao He in the other and walked to the gate of the city. Yan Ting showed the token to the city guard who stopped them. When the two were about to salute in fear, Yan Ting waved his hand Said: "Take me to meet your county magistrate and prepare to resettle refugees."

Some people who listened with pricked ears suddenly became agitated.But because the two had already entered inside.They can only wait anxiously like ants on a hot pan.But the joy on his face and the rest of his life have long replaced the numb despair in his eyes.

The county magistrate of Qingping County is a good official who is relatively strict in his post and sticks to it.The management in the county and outside the county is not bad, there are no riots and riots, and people are reluctant to use the government's surplus food to survive.

However, because of the steep mountains here, there is not much land to grow food. After a few heavy rains, coupled with the steep terrain, mudslides are prone to occur.So this is one of the most severely affected places in Qingzhou Province.The county magistrate here is also well-informed, and moved all the villagers living near the mountain to the gate of the county seat. Although they were poorly clothed and hungry, their lives were no longer in danger.Moreover, the surrounding villages and counties have received more or less funding, which also raised hope for life in their hearts.

Wen Sijie, the magistrate of Qingping County, looked at the young man from the prefectural capital who came late with a handsome young man in shirts, but he didn't show any dissatisfaction, because he could tell that the boss was from Yan Ting's self-imposing temperament. Must be a capable one.So he hastily welcomed the two of them into his clean and simple county government office.

"Your Excellency of the state capital is here. If you don't come again, the officials and the common people will really be overwhelmed." The thin Lord Wen said bitterly, shaking his beard.

Yan Ting gradually eased his ugly face when he saw the bad situation in the county, and said: "My official's disaster relief team is almost here, and I hope Master Wen will send some policemen to go there." Pick it up ten miles away."

"No problem, no problem." Master Wen said excitedly, and just as he was about to give orders, Yan Ting said: "Organize people to set up a cauldron, and let them set up porridge sheds and simple houses inside and outside the county by the way." Sheds. It is easy for people to get sick if they live outdoors all the time.”

"Hey, hey, I'm going to give orders, my lord, please rest here for a while because of your grievances." Lord Wen almost burst into tears. It is a blessing for me and my people to have a considerate boss!

Hurry up and ask the master to make arrangements, Yan Da and Yan Er have rushed to the county with disaster relief supplies before they can wait for a cup of tea.

Yan Da came in with the cages that the adults put in the government, Yan Er took his hands to the porridge shed to distribute some food, Hao He waited for the adults to dress, and followed the adults and Wen adults to the disaster-stricken areas inside and outside the city to check.

All the victims outside the city lined up to be resettled in an open space inside the city.Some relatively strong young people helped the officers, soldiers and guards to build simple houses, and some big households in the city who lived fairly well also picked up spoons to serve porridge and meals for the old, weak, sick and disabled.

"I only brought [-] carts of grain. I wonder if I can survive this year?" Yan Ting asked with a frown as he watched the population surge.

Mr. Wen thought for a while and replied: "There are five other villages living in Qingping County, with about 4 people. If we live frugally, we can barely survive the winter."

Yan Ting breathed a sigh of relief and said: "That's okay. After the year is reported to the court, the emperor will distribute food. There are many mountains and forests in the area of ​​Qingzhou, and some places are relatively steep. The southern part has been the worst hit The people have lived here for many years and they must have a lot of ways of life. The 2 taels of silver should be distributed according to the population."

Master Wen nodded gratefully, and couldn't help but said: "My lord is really upright and upright. After you came here to take office, the atmosphere in Qingzhou has changed a little."

Yan Ting smiled sarcastically: "It's just people who have changed their colors after hearing the news. What I'm afraid of is not the family power behind me. If they think I'm weak, why don't they rush to oppress me?"

Master Wen was a little embarrassed.But the awe-inspiring sense of admiration in his heart persisted for a long time.This man is young and promising, as the son of You Cheng, he is neither arrogant nor pretentious.This kind of open-mindedness alone is beyond the reach of all the officials, and since he took office, the officialdom in Qingzhou has been cleaned up a lot. Although most of them are probing and probing, it can be seen how powerful this oppressive method is.

This time the disaster is over, and I don’t know how many times I used to eat and wait to die in Qingzhou, and corrupt officials were pulled down.

There will be another wave of turmoil.Wen Sijie shook his head and sighed.

Hao He silently followed the adults beside him. Although he didn't quite understand what charades they were playing, his intuition told him that the adults were not very happy now.

Relying on his instinctive intuition, he tugged on the sleeve of the lord, leaned into his ear and said to him what was in his heart: "It is said that there must be an epidemic in a disaster year, should we prepare some preventive medicines and distribute them to everyone?" .Besides, it’s almost autumn, why don’t you buy some quilts and clothes for everyone. It’s much better than just handing out money.” Besides, there’s nowhere to spend the money now. It’s good if the merchants don’t drive up prices, and at least the government can buy them. to cheap goods.

Yan Ting squinted at him, with a little smile in his eyes, but jokingly said with a serious face: "With writing and ink in your stomach, your brain will be different immediately. It's much smarter than in the mansion!"

Hao He was taken aback when he heard the words, Su oh, originally he just wanted to change the subject briefly, but he was not praised and was slightly ridiculed, which must be unbearable, then he pretended to be angry, glared at the adults and whispered: "But! My lord didn't even think of what I could think of!"

Yan Ting couldn't help laughing, touched the man with fried hair, and he was in a much better mood and shouted: "Ada, did you hear what the young master said, hurry up and give orders."

Yan Da, who had been standing behind him silently, twitched his mouth, replied "Yes." and turned around to deal with the matter.

Master Wen watched this scene with a miraculous face, and felt deeply that people in high positions really possessed the miraculous face-changing skill!
