Weak Concubine [Qing Wear + Red House]

Seeing the behavior of Fei Ling and Zhao Qian, the child thought that he was going to cut off his hand, and begged for mercy loudly in fright.

"I beg my kind grandma to spare the little one. The little one has no other choice. There are brothers and sisters at home who are starving to death. I, I will never dare again!"

Jin Yao shook her head:

"Poor man, the left and right things have been brought back, let him go! Just remember, we let you go this time, if you continue to make a living with this, the next person you meet may not be as kind as me !"

Feiling let people go:

"If we catch you again, we won't let you go so easily!"

The child was dirty all over, and his eyes were black and bright. He rolled his eyes and knelt down in front of Jinyao and kowtowed:

"Good-hearted grandma, please buy our brother and sister, we can do all kinds of dirty work, and we don't need to pay much money for selling and living, as long as we can provide two full meals a day, just accept me! "

Jinyao put away her sympathy, led her away, and left without saying a word to him.

Do you really think of her as a Bodhisattva?

But for a moment, her heart softened. If she was as kind as he thought, she would not be able to save the poor people in Hubei who were hit by the disaster.

That child is just a dog, but usually he is very proud of taking advantage of his cleverness, but now seeing Jinyao ignoring him, he just left, confused, confused, not knowing what he did wrong to annoy him people.

Different from others, Jinyao doesn't like smart people, she prefers to use down-to-earth people, unless they are placed around for fun, otherwise she thinks such slippery people are unreliable.

Taking her with her, Jinyao went to the medical clinic. There were many people around the medical clinic, most of whom were seeing patients. Feiling didn't let her get close to her, fearing that the epidemic might spread, so they just stood outside and watched for a while.

"The doctor seems to be quite capable, but there is a lack of medicinal materials, and he is the only one who has no helpers, so I don't think he has time to develop the medicine to control the epidemic!" .

Jin Yao shook her head:

"Look more, and learn more from Nanny Sun, maybe you will be on the field in a few days."

"Nurse Sun said that she and I cannot leave your side at the same time, we will arrange a good time, master, don't worry."

"Oh, that's good. It's heart-wrenching to see people falling down on the side of the road along the way. I don't know when this natural disaster will pass!"

After stopping in Jingzhou for a morning, the fourth master and the thirteenth elder brother were not idle. After arranging the distribution of relief food, they asked about Jingzhou's material storage. They transferred some stored food from Jingzhou to load the car, and continued to Jiangcheng.

It is not easy to walk this way, the road is muddy, the vehicles are heavy, and the road is somewhat difficult.

And all the way from Jingzhou to Yongzhou City passed through the hardest-hit areas, and the scene of corpses strewn all over the ground, not to mention a woman like Jinyao, even those big men were all moved, especially some officials who rarely left Beijing. His face turned pale.

In the carriage, fourth master held Jin Yao's hand:

"Are you scared?"

Natural disasters are not man-made disasters, but there are too many uncontrollable factors. It is false to say that you are not afraid at all, but if you really want to say how afraid you are, Jinyao realizes that she seems to have some problems. This kind of scene is comparable to a battlefield. Not much fear! ! !

It was this discovery that really terrified her.

There are puddles on this road from time to time, the rain has never stopped, and it is not small, there is moderate rain, how many days of moderate rain in a row, and the period of rising water, it is really worse!

Along the way, there is mostly white water, and few can see the color of the land. I am afraid that there is not much grain that can be harvested this year.

Every year there are reports of disasters everywhere, asking the court to distribute relief food, but where does this food come from?If grain production in the south is reduced or disasters occur, and tax grains cannot be collected, how can the state treasury be used for relief if there is no grain in the treasury?

In the past, she only saw in books that she couldn't eat the bark, and she didn't even dare to think about the more terrifying ones. Now that she saw it with her own eyes, the shock cannot be easily described in words.

Jin Yao secretly made a decision in her heart.

After finally reaching Jiangcheng safely, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

Except for Jinyao who didn't get out of the car very often, everyone else was in a panic.

The officials in Jiangcheng obviously knew about the fourth master and his party, and they also found out the date. As soon as they entered the city, all the officials, big and small, came to welcome the imperial envoy.

Seeing the faces of officials big and small in Jiangcheng, fourth master couldn't help frowning, and went up to greet them.

Headed by the current governor of Huguang, Kali.

Coming up is a series of troubles:

"My lord has worked hard on this journey. The slave waits day and night and worries endlessly. Finally, the lord has come to look forward to it! The mansion has prepared a banquet. Please ask the lord to wash up and have a meal while talking, how about it?"

Fourth master took a deep breath, without any expression on his face, nodded:

"Follow Master Kali's arrangement!"

Jinyao was accompanied by the wives of the senior officials present.

Listening to their flattery, Jinyao only smiled and nodded the whole time, the atmosphere was much stronger than that of the men.

This time I lived in a post house, but the environment was much more grand than the magistrate's house in Jingzhou, but Fourth Master's mood was obviously much worse than then.

Jin Yao helped him rub his shoulders:

"Why are you so angry?"

"You can see what kind of life the people outside are living, but look at these officials, eating, drinking and dressing are no different from usual. The people outside can't even eat porridge. Talking and laughing, I don’t worry about the people outside at all, do they have any sense of being an official? You can’t swallow a mouthful!”

Jinyao was a little helpless, Fourth Master's temper sometimes became stubborn, and it was really hard to persuade.

"Then you should eat well and rest well. Otherwise, if you get angry and sick, wouldn't it be more in line with their wishes, and no one will care what they do!"

Unexpectedly, when the fourth master heard this, he felt that it made sense, ordered a bowl of plain noodles, rested after eating, and slept better than Jinyao.

Jinyao: ...

For the rest of the time, Jinyao just ate and drank, chatted with local officials and wives, and went shopping in Jiangcheng. She was treated very well and had nothing important to do.

Anyway, she would answer anyone's request, accept anything from anyone, and return the gift, but whoever wants to make something out of her, it's a lot of money, a few words are taken away, and I want to beg her To do things, as long as it doesn't involve men, she will not refuse to help, but it's a pity that most of them ask for their own men.

In this way, Fourth Master and Nanny Sun and Feiling beside her have been busy for more than half a month, and finally when the rain stopped, everyone's worries were relieved a lot.

"Is there a clue?" It's rare to see Fourth Master return to the post office so early.

Fourth Master's eyebrows are bright:

"The epidemic is under control. Grandma Sun has the ability. The medicine she developed is really suitable for the disease. No refugees are infected anymore. The previous illnesses are almost as good. The water has also been diverted. Now that the rain has stopped, the water will slow down. Slow down, it's more than half done."

Mostly?Jinyao raised her eyebrows and didn't ask any more questions. She remembered that the task she came out this time was to find out the corruption accounts of officials in previous years.

"Fourth brother is really powerful, he has brought the situation under control so quickly, so capable!"

Straightforward praise makes the corners of the mouth turn up:

"Half of the credit is due to you. If you hadn't stabilized those wives, my place wouldn't be so smooth."

"Oh? Then how are you going to reward me?"

Fourth Master is funny:

"What reward do you want?"

"Well, when I come to Jiangcheng, I naturally want to visit the 'Yellow Crane Tower' to see how good it can attract immortals."

"... What scripts have you read recently?"

"Xunxian asked, immortality." Jin Yao flattered casually.

Fourth master frowned:

"That's all fake, don't really get caught up in it."

"Of course I know it's fake. Didn't the literati deify the 'Yellow Crane Tower'? I just want to see how it differs from other buildings."

Fourth Master is funny:

"It just so happens that I haven't looked at it either. If you have free time, let's go together."

At this moment, Governor of Huguang Kali looked at his accountant in shock:

"What did you say?"

"I suspect that the account book has been tampered with. If I look closely today, I always feel that it has been tampered with."

"You mean the real account book? Didn't I tell you to keep it in a safe place? How could it be discovered?" Just because the goal of putting yourself here is big, I thought of letting the master hide it.

"Even my mother-in-law doesn't know where the villain is hiding, but it just feels like someone has touched it. When I took it out to check today, I found some slight changes. The villain is afraid. You should be careful about such things. Dare to hide it from adults!"

Kari sat on the chair and slapped the table hard:

"Is there anyone else who is interested in the accounts of repairing the canal, besides the fourth and thirteenth elder brothers who have not yet left?"

"Then, how are you going to deal with it?"

Kali's face was stern, if that's the case, don't blame him for being rude!

The fourth master took Jinyao out to relax, so naturally it wasn't just the two of them, except for the thirteenth elder brother who had something to do, most of the other accompanying ministers were also interested in the Yellow Crane Tower. We met each other, but we just said hello and went shopping.

Jinyao also took Nanny Sun and Feiling who had been busy for half a month, and asked them to relax as well.

The Yellow Crane Tower has always been deified, and everyone climbed up with admiration, but found that it was just the same thing, and it was far from what I imagined in my heart.

Of course, it is true that it is many times stronger than the towers you usually see.

What's more, the scenery seen from the heights is different, but it can also make people relax.

It's a pity that the river has not completely receded, and there is mostly water in the distance, which covers the original scenery and looks a little desolate.

"There's nothing to see here, why don't we take you for a walk on the street?"

Fourth Master asked.

Jin Yao smiled and said:

"Okay, the fourth brother can arrange it any way he wants."

There was a flood down there, but nothing happened in the city, and the prosperity remained undiminished. Although the shops had difficulty purchasing goods due to inconvenient roads, they still had enough stock to sell, and every shop was still open.

Jinyao has also shopped a lot in the past half month, but she didn't really expect much, she just wanted to cooperate with Fourth Master.

Although the fourth master didn't say anything, Jinyao could still tell that the fourth master didn't come out for a walk just to accompany her.

No matter what the purpose is, she can only cooperate.

As soon as they arrived on the street, a group of masked people suddenly appeared. They didn't hesitate when they saw the group of them, and rushed up with weapons.
