Rebirth of the King of the World

"Shi Bo let us have fun, have fun, have fun, don't worry about everything, and he is here." Jiang Yuan said with a leisurely smile, with as serious an expression as he wanted, Completely like a dude who doesn't know the sufferings of the world.

Jun Lv suddenly came to his senses, and hurriedly said: "In that case, let's leave quickly, this ghost place is nothing interesting."

When they are away from home, Jun Lu and Jiang Yuan’s clothes are much simpler than when they are at home, but judging from their manners and temperament, the people sent by Wang Anyuan can tell at a glance that the two young masters have extraordinary identities, and they must be Zhaoyang Who is the king.

So when he heard that Jun Lu and Jiang Yuan didn't intend to go to Yao'an with Jun Lan, a little vigilance flashed in his eyes.

There has just been an unprecedented earthquake in Yizhou. The emperor specially sent King Zhaoyang to supervise the disaster relief, but the two young princes who came with him actually want to part ways with King Zhaoyang. What do they want to do? What secrets are hidden.

Before the visitor could give full play to his imagination, Jiang Yuan started complaining, saying how hard the journey was, how boring the journey was, he couldn’t eat well and sleep well, and finally arrived in Yizhou, he wanted to find It was fun.

Jiang Yuan's performance made everyone dumbfounded. The purpose of their trip was not to travel around the mountains and rivers, okay?

Junlan quietly explained to the officials who came to welcome them that Jiang Yuan was the only son of Princess Ankang, and he had longed for the mountains and rivers of Yizhou for a long time. In the past, the princess spoiled her son and was reluctant to let him go far away. This time, King Zhaoyang went with him. , he was allowed to follow.

Xu is that Jiang Yuan's performance is too convincing, and now the officials of Yizhou look at him, it is a matter of course.

It turned out to be the precious son of Princess Ankang, the nephew of the Holy Majesty, the hereditary prince of Yong'an, with such a prominent family background and a future without worry, it is no wonder that the prince still has leisure time to play around at this time, understandable, understandable ...

As for the little son who is inseparable from Shizi, although King Zhaoyang didn't say who he is, but looking at that childish face and the expression on his face eager to try, he doesn't need to think about who it is. Grandpa came to play with his companions, so there is no need to worry too much.

In this way, Jiang Yuan and Jun Lu barely aroused anyone's suspicion, and they left the big team smoothly.

Acting has to be a complete set, and Jun Lan can't go to Yao An, and they immediately follow the path, which seems too fake.

So Junlu and Jiang Yuan really went to Ziwei Mountain, which is the most famous and beautiful place in Yizhou.

"Now you can tell me the truth, what did uncle tell you?" Ziwei Mountain has a pleasant scenery. If there is nothing else, Jun Lu will definitely calm down and enjoy it with peace of mind. It's a pity that he and Jiang Yuan are on mission. I don't have time to spare right now.

Jiang Yuan couldn't understand why Jun Lv was so obsessed with this matter, he shrugged, and said helplessly, "What can Shi Bo say, just let me take care of you and take care of you more, lest you be impulsive Whatever misfortune it causes, there is nothing else."

"Really? You didn't lie to me?" Jun Lu didn't doubt Jiang Yuan, he just didn't expect that he would be such an uneasy image in Jun Lan's eyes.But even so, he still brought him to Yizhou, which shows how much he loves him.

"What did I lie to you for?" Jiang Yuan raised his brows unhappily, "Little friend, tell me your conscience, have I lied to you before, never, okay?" He came here on the emperor's uncle's secret order , Isn't it normal for Jun Shibo to ask a few more questions?

Jun Lu curled his lips helplessly, he thought about his own age, then Jiang Yuan's age, and sighed: "Obviously you are not a few years older than me, why uncle treats me like a child." He It's okay not to say this, but it's even more childish to say it.

"What do you mean by not being a few years older? I am three years older than you. Kid, if you want not to be treated as a kid, you have to grow taller quickly, otherwise I have to keep my head down when I talk to you." Jiang Yuan said He raised his hand and gestured, it was the height difference between him and Jun Lv.

Jun Lv was very upset that people disliked his height again. He was obviously tall in his previous life, but now he lost because of his age.

But it's easy to grow tall, but he has to work hard not to be treated as a child, Jun Lv secretly clenched his fist.It seems that he still has to prove himself quickly, otherwise what comes out of his mouth will hardly be convincing.

Seeing Jun Lu lowered his head and did not speak, Jiang Yuan mistakenly thought that he had been hit by him, and was about to comfort him, but saw Jun Lu raised his head and said to him: "Let's stop wasting time here, let's hurry up!" Go down the mountain, uncle is still waiting for us."

Jiang Yuan thinks about it too. He specially asked the emperor's uncle for an order. He didn't really come to visit the mountains and rivers. It was because he was worried about the law of the king. He didn't know why he wanted to join in the fun, and it was difficult to persuade him, so he had to follow along. Here you go, help him if you need anything.

Although Emperor Shenyou is conceited, suspicious and self-willed, he still attaches great importance to people's livelihood. He sent Jun Lan to come over for disaster relief, just to supervise the officials of Yizhou and the counties and counties below. In order to supervise Jun Lan.

It can't be said that the emperor doesn't trust Junlan, but his style of doing things is like this, and everything needs to be more sure.

Of course Jun Lan knew the emperor's intentions, but he had a clear conscience and didn't care about it.Besides, Jiang Yuan's personality is always more down-to-earth than Jun Lu's, and he can let them do some inconvenient things if he is with him, which is considered a wrong way.

Hearing what Jun Lu said, Jiang Yuan suddenly felt that there was no need for him to comfort him, the child was not hit at all.

Having no time to appreciate the beautiful scenery of Ziwei Mountain, Junlu and Jiang Yuan walked along the path that they had inquired about before entering Yizhou, and quickly went out of the mountain and went to several counties near Yao'an.This is the place Junlan arranged for them to go in advance, mainly to see how the local disaster relief is going.

The scale of the earthquake in Yizhou this time is not trivial. In addition to the heavy loss of Yao'an in the center, the nearby counties are also affected.

Junlan went to Yao'an, accompanied by Yizhou local officials, some things may not be clear, he let Junlu and Jiang Yuan act alone, obviously also thought of this.What Junlan wants to know is the most real disaster situation in Yizhou and the actual situation of disaster relief.

Coming down from Ziwei Mountain, Jun Lu and Jiang Yuan arrived at Jinyun County first, and before entering the county seat, they felt something was vaguely wrong.

It has been half a month since the earthquake happened, but the houses they saw along the way were all crumbling, and no one was repairing them at all.

"Where have all these people gone? It's the end of October, shouldn't the most important thing be to repair the house first?" If it's summer, it's fine, and you can just find a place to build a pergola, but this is all It's the end of October, maybe people will freeze to death.

Jun Lu frowned, with a look of inability to understand.Are the local officials just eating and not working? At this time, their primary task is to organize the people to help themselves. Only when the most basic food and clothing problems are solved, can we talk about other things.

"Let's go to the city to have a look." Jiang Yuan was also puzzled when he saw this.On the way to Yizhou, he also told Junlu that the earthquake occurred in winter, and all the grain that should be harvested had been harvested. As long as the casualties were not heavy, it should not affect the spring plowing in the coming year.

But seeing the situation in Jinyun County now, Jiang Yuan doubted his own words, let alone next year, if they don't even have a decent place to live, many people will not be able to survive this winter.

The temperature in Yizhou is not lower than that of Yujing, or even higher, but Yizhou is mountainous and watery, and the air humidity is extremely high. The coldness in winter makes many people from the north unbearable.

"Yeah." Jun Lu nodded with a serious face, he suspected that Yi Zhou's situation was much more serious than he remembered.

As Jinyun County approached, more and more people appeared in front of Jun Lu and Jiang Yuan.It's just that those people, no matter men, women, old or young, are all sallow and thin in ragged clothes, as if they haven't had enough food for many days.

"Didn't the emperor order to open granaries long ago?" It's normal for ordinary people's scattered grain to be crushed by collapsed buildings and cannot be dug out, but the big granary built and maintained by the imperial court is a granary. It's easy to dig out when it's broken.

As early as in Chengzu's reign, Emperor Chengzu ordered the establishment of Changping warehouses in various states and counties, both to stabilize prices and to use them for famines.

After all, when a catastrophe strikes, food is more valuable than gold. If it is not stored locally, it will be too late to transport it from other places.For more than a hundred years since then, many natural disasters of various sizes occurred in the north and south of the Dayan Dynasty, and Changping warehouse played a very important role.

Yizhou is mountainous, which mainly refers to the circle around Yizhou, which makes it particularly difficult for Yizhou to communicate with the outside world.

But within Yizhou, there are still several fertile plains, and the annual grain output is not low.Other states and counties with high grain production have to hand over a certain percentage of grain to the imperial court every year, but Yizhou does not need it, because the transportation is too inconvenient and the freight is too high.

Because of this, when the earthquake occurred in Yao An, the emperor did not order the allocation of food, but just let Jun Lan come to supervise.

Because Yizhou's food reserves are too sufficient, and it is second only to Yujing in the country. As long as the dispatch is appropriate, it will be no problem to survive the disaster and complete the reconstruction.

Standing among the disheveled crowd, Jun Lu, Jiang Yuan and their subordinates were very conspicuous.Although they looked a little haggard due to the exhaustion of the past ten days, they were still much better than the locals.

The gates of the city are guarded by heavily armed soldiers, who check each person who enters and exits one by one, and only those who pass are allowed to go.

Jun Lu was not in a hurry to enter the city, he pulled Jiang Yuan to stand near the city gate for a while, and said in a low voice: "Have you noticed that they check people entering the city very strictly, and they are more relaxed when they go out of the city, as if to prevent looking for someone, or looking for someone."

Jiang Yuan pursed his lips unconsciously, nodded and said: "People who enter the city are carrying empty buckets and bowls, and those who leave the city are packed tightly. It seems that there are Shi Mi in the city, but the control is very strict. "

"I still don't think it's right. It's an earthquake, and it's not floods and droughts that have reduced food production. Is it necessary to distribute rice like this? Just distribute food directly to each household. It's so troublesome, unless it's... "Jun Lu's expression became even uglier.

Before Jun Lu finished speaking, Jiang Yuan leaned close to his ear and whispered: "Seeing is believing, and it's pointless for us to speculate here. Why don't we go in and have a look. But I don't know who they are looking for. It will be a little troublesome if you startle the snake."

"It's okay, just wait for me." Jun Lu looked around and suddenly had an idea.

Jun Lu saw a pair of teenage brothers who had just left the city and were walking in their direction, and immediately had someone call them to him.

"Young master, do you have something to do with the younger one?" The older of the two brothers asked tremblingly.Jun Lv may feel that he has restrained himself, but he has been a high-ranking person for two lifetimes, so he has no chance to deal with real ordinary people.

Seeing that he was scaring people too much, Jun Lu's expression and tone became softer: "It's nothing serious, I just have a few words to ask you."

"My lord, you just have to ask, you don't dare to hide anything small." Seeing that Jun Lu had no malicious intentions, the young man relaxed a little.

"You queue up to enter the city to get food?" There is also a long queue at the gate of the city, but the order is orderly.

The young man nodded, not understanding what was the point of asking, but he still replied honestly: "Our Jinyun County is considered good, and the porridge we bring home every day is always enough for the whole family. Unlike In Yunshan County and Shinan County next door, the porridge is so clear that it can be used for people, and it can only be mixed with water to fill up, and it doesn’t matter at all. Some people heard that the porridge in our county is really good, so they come here to claim it. The old master found out, so he sent people to check every day."

It's good that Ganqing is like this, but Junlu's face is even more ugly. Yizhou's grain storage is estimated to be enough for at least three years, and it is on the premise that Yizhou will not produce grain for three years.Now it is only half a month before the earthquake, why can't even give out porridge.

"Can I see your porridge?" The younger brother of the young man was holding a small bucket in his arms and wrapped it tightly with a ragged cotton jacket. Jiang Yuan couldn't see what was inside, so he interjected at this moment Mouth.

The boy who was about thirteen or fourteen looked at Jiang Yuan vigilantly when he heard the words, he hugged the small bucket in his arms tightly, and said nervously: "You don't want to eat our porridge, do you? My grandma, my mother, and my sister I’m still waiting at home, but I can’t give it to you.”

Jiang Yuan didn't know whether to laugh or cry, but at the same time he felt sour in his heart. The small bucket really didn't look that big. Even if there was only one younger sister in this pair of brothers' family, there were five people in their family. Such a small bucket of porridge was the ration of the whole family. It is too little.

"I don't want your porridge, I just want to see, if you cooperate obediently, I'll give it to you..." If it was in the capital, Jiang Yuan would have given out two golden leaves, but for such a pair of young It doesn't seem like a good thing for brothers to have such a precious thing.

Seeing that Jiang Yuan was stuck, Jun Lu immediately followed up his words and said, "After you cooperate, I will give you two more sesame seed cakes."

The two gold leaves suddenly turned into two biscuits, and Jiang Yuan couldn't change it for a while.The reason why he hesitated before was that he was worried about the crime of being pregnant, which would bring trouble to the younger brothers instead, but the two biscuits, aren't they too shabby?

Unexpectedly, before Jun Lu finished speaking, the expressions of the two brothers became very excited, especially the younger brother, if it wasn't for the worry that the porridge in his arms would spill, Jiang Yuan felt that he would jump up on the spot.

It was just two biscuits, but it made them so excited, Jiang Yuan felt more and more upset.

Now that the conditions have been discussed, the young man carefully unwrapped the ragged cotton jacket wrapped outside the small wooden barrel.

Jun Lu and Jiang Yuan approached at the same time, and their expressions became uglier at the same time.

"Wrap the porridge quickly, so that it won't go cold when you go back." Jun Lu was very worried, because they didn't even have firewood at home.

Jiang Yuan asked the brothers a few more questions, and the answers he got were all he didn't want to hear.Seeing that he had asked all the necessary questions, Jun Lu asked the accompanying guards to bring out two biscuits and handed them to the young man.

The young man took the biscuits and was reluctant to eat them, wrapped them up and stuffed them into his arms to thank Jun Lu repeatedly.

Jun Lu shook his head with a wry smile, and asked again: "Can you exchange your clothes for me? I don't want it for nothing, I'll exchange it with you." He just felt that the stature of the two brothers was about the same as that of him and Jiang Yuan. They will be called over, and if they don't change their looks, they won't be able to enter the city smoothly.

"My lord, are you going to enter the city?" The young man immediately guessed Jun Lu's purpose.

Seeing that Jun Lu was expressionless and silent, he added, "It's not difficult for you to get in, but Shi Mi came based on household registration, and you won't be able to get it when you go."

"Brother is so stupid, son and the others have no shortage of food." The boy said relaxedly beside him.

Jun Lu secretly smiled wryly when he heard the words, they have no shortage of food, and in Yizhou now, even if they have money, they may not be able to buy food.

The two brothers were in a hurry to go home, they gave Jun Lu their coats, changed into the clothes given to them by the guards, and left in a hurry.

"Do we really want to wear such clothes?" Jiang Yuan frowned and couldn't help it. Since he was born, he really hasn't worn such tattered and tasteful clothes. Jun Lu really made it hard for him.

Jun Lu stayed in the cold palace for 18 years, and didn't wear any rotten clothes. While changing clothes without any burden, he even smeared his face and messed up his hair, and said to Jiang Yuan: "Why don't you wait for me outside the city, I'll go in and have a look and come out."

Jiang Yuan's embarrassment for Jun Lv is very understandable, if he can't bear it, he thinks it's nothing.

But Jiang Yuan hesitated for a moment, but he decided to change his clothes, and said while changing: "Little friend, it is meaningless for you to say that. Do I seem to be such a ungrateful person? You go in and take risks, and I am outside Wait, how could I do such a thing?"

"It's an adventure, I just go in and have a look, nothing will happen." Seeing Jiang Yuan gritted his teeth and changed his clothes, Jun Lu felt a little unbearable for some reason. The well-behaved Prince Yong'an came to Yizhou with him. ask for trouble.

Jiang Yuan shook his head, and said resolutely: "It's okay if you don't take risks, I have to see you in person to be at ease."

Jun Lu cleaned up first, and then turned around to help Jiang Yuan tidy up. Hearing him say this, he couldn't help but joked: "Are you so reluctant to part with me?" He also wiped mud on Jiang Yuan's face, making him look so handsome His fair face was smeared beyond recognition.

Jiang Yuan froze suddenly, looking straight at Jun Lu, as if he wanted to see some clues from his eyes.

Jun Lu was smearing Jiang Yuan's face with great interest, and he naturally noticed his abnormality. Whoever made Jiang Yuan's ears so red that it was difficult for him to ignore it.

"I'm sorry, I was joking, don't take it seriously." Jun Lu didn't want Jiang Yuan to misunderstand him, so he apologized quickly.

But after hearing what he said, Jiang Yuan became even angrier. He raised his hand and waved Jun Lu's hand away, and said in a muffled voice, "You've always been joking?"

Jiang Yuan's topic changed too quickly, and Jun Lu didn't react for a while, but when he figured it out, his complexion immediately turned bad.

"Are you serious?" Jun Lu never thought that Jiang Yuan really wanted to marry him, and there was no such feeling between them.It's just that the two of them are temporarily bound by fate, and they happen to be very congenial with each other, so they seem much closer than ordinary friends.

Jiang Yuan didn't expect Jun Lv to ask such a question, and he was stunned, speechless for a long time.

For a moment, Jiang Yuan frowned, and said irritably, "I don't know, why are we talking about this?"

Jun Lu was stunned, then laughed and said, "Since we don't know, let's forget about it and change our clothes and go to the city."

Jiang Yuan is not a person who knows how to get into the horns, so let's ignore the emotional affairs if he is not clear, anyway, he is going to follow Junlu into the city.

Although they changed their clothes and hairstyles, and even covered up their appearance, when Jun Lu and Jiang Yuan entered the city, they were still interrogated by the soldiers guarding the city. They were not from Jinyun County, and they could not receive food when they entered the city. What to do in there.

Thanks to Jiang Yuan's good eloquence, he told a long story without hesitation, which moved people to tears. In the end, they were allowed to go to the city to visit their sick elders.

After successfully entering the city, Jun Lu gave Jiang Yuan a thumbs up. He will never have such a skill in his next life.

The situation in the county is much better than outside the city, and some people are repairing the houses damaged in the earthquake, and it is being done in an organized manner.

"So it's not that no one is responsible. Why is it like that outside the city? Could it be that there are not enough people?" Jiang Yuan guessed wildly.

"Let's go to Shi Mi's place to see." I looked at the porridge bucket of the brothers before, and the porridge in it was not too thick, but it was not so clear that it could be seen.

Emperor Chengzu once stipulated that when rice is used for disaster relief, the consistency of porridge must be so that it will not fall when inserted into chopsticks.In previous years in Yujing, many aristocratic families would give porridge when they arrived in Laba, and several royal residences were no exception. Both Jun Lu and Jiang Yuan had seen the porridge at that time, and it was indeed very thick.

There are several Shi Mi's places in Jinyun County, Jun Lu and Jiang Yuan went to the nearest one, only to see that the team was so long that you couldn't see the end.

First they went directly to the place where the porridge was made, and saw a dozen large pots lined up side by side, each one was full and steaming hot.

Of course, the pot is full of water, and the rice grains are tumbling in the boiling water. If you want to boil it to the point where you can't put your chopsticks in it, at least half of the pot of water has to be burned.

But Jun Lu and Jiang Yuan went to see the porridge place again, each pot still had more than half pot of water, so they started scooping out for fun.

There was a lot of voices around, Jiang Yuan lowered his voice and said in Jun Lu's ear: "Is this water too much?"

Jun Lu corrected with a blank face: "You should say that this rice is too little." But the brothers said that Jinyun County has already been calculated, and Yunshan County and Shinan County are far inferior to them. Some people came to rub their porridge.

What happened to Yizhou? It is said that the grain that would last for three years has gone.

Jiang Yuan said speechlessly: "Isn't this all the same meaning? They are too stingy."

"I'm afraid it's not being stingy, but something else is hidden." Walking on the street, Jun Lu could clearly feel that the people here are very calm, and they don't think there is a problem with the thin porridge at all. It is very neat, and there is no situation where you scramble for each other.

Jiang Yuan nodded slightly, he also noticed that the order in Jinyun County is very good: "It's not too late, let's go to Yunshan County, maybe we can get there before dark." The closest to Jinyun County is Yunshan County, he wants to see the situation over there.
