Overlord's Road to Ancient Emperors

At night, the Habayashi Army divided into two shifts and took turns to guard Li Xu's residence into an iron bucket, so that even a mosquito would not even be able to fly in.

In the middle of the night, several rapid screams came from the backyard, and then the flames shot up into the sky, and the whole yard was shrouded in flames.

There was a Yulin army who wanted to take people to check, Ye Changqing stopped them, and said calmly: "The sky is dry and the things are dry, it's normal if the water leaks, anyway, it can't burn here, so don't worry about it."

In the room, Li Xu also saw the fire from the window, he stayed for a while, then closed the window and went to bed.

That house was burned by the servants Wan Chunlin gave him. There might be someone who really wanted to kill him, or someone who was really innocent, but so what? Would he want to arrest them one by one and interrogate them, and then kill them after distinguishing them clearly? ?

Li Xu never knew that he could be so cruel when he was cold-blooded, but he did not regret his decision.

The next day, there was a light snowfall in Yuhang, which was the first snow this year. People who were used to the heavy snow in the north did not take this little snow seriously, but the team had just left the city gate when they saw Xixi Everyone was a little shocked by the refugees who came from all directions.

The little princess looked out the car window and saw the naked civilians, and asked Li Xu curiously, "Father, aren't they cold?"

Li Xu naturally also saw this scene, his lips moved, and whispered: "It's not that it's not cold, it's that there are no warm clothes to wear."

"Well, then they will freeze to death. I heard from my mother that many people freeze to death every year when it snows."

"Yes."

"Then father, why don't they have clothes to wear?"

"Because of being poor." Li Xu knew very well that being poor was the original sin, and nothing could compare to having enough food and clothing.

"We are also very poor, will Shu'er have no clothes to wear in the future?"

Li Xu hugged her and assured her, "Of course not, with Father and King here, I won't let the little baby starve and suffer from cold."

"Oh, Shu'er understands, they are starving and freezing because they don't have a good father."

This is true, people cannot choose their origin, their parents and even grandparents were poor, so they will appear here.

The convoy stopped, and Li Xu told Liu Shu, "Go and ask what happened."

"Here."

Liu Shu jumped out of the carriage and came back soon after the questioning. He stood outside the carriage and said, "Your Highness, they came from the north. They said that it snowed heavily in the north for three consecutive days, and many houses were collapsed. They couldn't, so they had to go south to find a way out."

Li Xu doesn't know where their way out is. If the government manages well, they should reinforce the houses of the people before winter. people.

But Li Xu also knows that disaster relief means asking for money and food, but these two things are the most scarce things in the whole country.

"Your Highness, the city gate is about to close." He Zun was riding on the horse and heard the sound of the door closing.

Lin Zhao also came over to ask for instructions: "My lord, there are too many disaster victims ahead, and it is difficult for the convoy to pass."

"Qiao Rui Fufa, who is in charge of Yuhang now?"

This Lin Zhao knew, and he replied: "It's the county magistrate of Yuhang, the young man I saw at the banquet yesterday, tall, thin, with a mole on the corner of his mouth."

When he said this, Li Xu also remembered it, because that young man stood out among a group of senior officials, he was also handsome, with elegant demeanor, and he looked like a scholar.

But Li Xu also remembered that the young man was inexperienced and a bit noble, and it might be difficult for him to manage the people in this area well.

Li Xu tapped his fingers and asked, "This king seems to have forgotten one thing."

"What's the matter?"

"Then Qiao Rui Fufa, the house hasn't been copied yet, right?"

"Never, just arrested Qiao's family and sent them to prison."

"Looking back, I'm going to see if the Qiao family's wealth is rich." Li Xu told Lin Zhao, "Let the Yulin Army inform the folks along the street, saying that King Shun came to Yuhang. Fu Zhu, all major affairs in Yuhang will be in charge of the county magistrate."

Lin Zhao didn't understand why he made such a big fuss, but he didn't ask any further questions, just explain it.

When the team returned to the city, the city gate would naturally be opened. Li Xu got off the carriage, climbed onto the city wall, and looked down at the shivering people outside the city.

"Go and invite all the medical craftsmen in the city, let them sit at the gate of the city, and check every victim who wants to enter the city. Only those who have no fever or disease can enter the city, and they will be placed in the village where we lived last night. Those who enter the city will be housed outside the city, in the open space outside the city..." Li Xu pointed with a long hand, "Temporarily build a few large sheds in that open space."

Lin Zhao hesitated and asked, "Does the lord want to take care of these disaster victims?"

Li Xu looked at him very seriously, "Can I take care of it? Can I ignore it?" Lin Zhao was ashamed to ask these two questions.

"Of course, I will obey the prince's orders."

Li Xu knew that what he did was asking for trouble. An exiled prince meddling in the government affairs of other places. To put it seriously, he overstepped his authority and seized power. He was suspected of rebellion, but seeing more and more disaster victims outside, he could just ignore it ?

"Xiao Liu, take someone to raid Qiao's house, and make an inventory before you reply."

Liu Shu loves to do this kind of thing the most, and happily led people to ransack the house.

"Send someone to the yamen to call everyone, and the king will wait here." Li Xu simply sat on the city wall and couldn't go down. Without him in charge, I really don't know if the announced policy can be implemented.
