When Ion Yuan and Yi Yunqu got off the carriage, they saw a tall and straight man standing at the gate of the city with his hands behind his back. Seeing the two get off the carriage, he saluted them neither humble nor overbearing.

"I have met the general and the lord, and my next official is Liu Yiyu, the governor of Longshuizhouzhou City, who is in charge of handing over the materials with the two lords."

"You don't need to be too polite," Ion Yuan said lightly. Looking around, it was almost bleak. In this most lively first month, the gate of the city, which was supposed to be a place for people to communicate with each other, was actually deserted. talk."

"We may stay for a while, this inn and restaurant may be inconvenient," Yi Yunqu said from the side.

"My lords, don't worry. The lower officials arranged for everyone to settle in this mansion. Even if you want to live in an inn in Longshui Island, you won't be able to find an inn." Liu Yiyu was quite worried in his words.

"The general knows, so I will go with you to the governor's mansion first." Ion Yuan looked around the desolate city entrance, frowning.

"Yes," Liu Yiyu was upright, with a handsome face, advancing and retreating gracefully, beckoning the soldiers to carry supplies, and walked towards the city.

After entering the city, I realized that there is another scene in this city. On the thick snow in the bustling wide alleyways on weekdays, there are two or three corpses lying down, black and purple from the cold, and half of the body is covered by snow. Looking at it, it looked extremely ugly, and there were some ragged people leaning against the door, shrinking their necks and shaking their bodies. When passing through an alley, it was crowded with people asking for food, making a lot of noise.

On the other side is a restaurant, and there are actually two or three people in thick clothes asking for wine.

The wine and meat of the rich family stinks, and the road is frozen to death, which is roughly what they said.

Sitting on the horse, Ion Yuan led the carriage and drove alongside Liu Yiyu and Yi Yunqu.

When a group of people passed by, they attracted the attention of many people.

"Is this heavy snow a disaster?" Ion Yuan asked with a frown looking at the scene.

Liu Yiyu nodded with a serious expression, "In the past half month, it has snowed heavily for ten consecutive years, with more than a foot of snow, and many street dwellers froze to death. The people lacked warm clothes and food, and many cities in Longshuizhou died. many people."

"I'm afraid the heavy snow will fall for a while longer, and the materials brought this time may not be enough to support it." Yi Yunqu said worriedly.

Several people looked dignified.

Several people walked through the avenue and came to Liu Yiyu's governor's mansion. The two stone unicorns in the gate were majestic and domineering, which made the simple gate a bit more official.

Some servants also stood respectfully outside the door.

"The lower officer has already prepared, should the general and your lord go to rest first?"

"Discuss the matter of disaster relief first," Ion Yuan said decisively, leaving the corner of the eye to look at the carriage, and then added: "Yi Yunqu, you and Mr. Liu go to discuss matters first, I will come as soon as I go."

Liu Yiyu just watched Ion Yuan go back to the carriage with Zhang Nuanqian in his arms, feeling puzzled.

Waiting for Ion Yuan to be led to the prepared wing before he came to his senses, General Li is really a weird person.

"Lord Liu, the person wrapped in the quilt is his wife, it's not what you think, it's better to discuss the disaster relief first," Yi Yunqu joked.

"Uh..." General Li actually cared so much about his husband and wife?Sure enough, the rumors were not entirely wrong.

When I was in the wing room, Ion Yuan hugged the listless Tang Anle to the bed with distress, only to see his frowning eyebrows relaxed.

Ion Yuan suddenly felt some regret.

The feeling of falling to the ground suddenly woke up Tang Anle in his sleep, his face was obviously tired, and he was weak, "Ionyuan, where are you going?"

"We've arrived at Longshui Island in the south, we don't need to take a carriage, just sleep on the bed for a while." Ion Yuan stroked the hair on his forehead gently, his tone so soft that he trembled without knowing it.

"Well... I'll just sleep," Tang Anle closed her eyes and fell asleep while talking.

Ion Yuan sat by his bed and looked at him for a few times, then turned and left.

Under the guidance of a servant, he turned around and stopped in front of a room similar to a study.

When Ion Yuan entered, Yi Yunqu and Liu Yiyu fell silent.

"How far has the discussion reached?" Ion Yuan looked at the open book on the desk, picked it up and read it.

"This brochure records the number of people affected by the snow disaster, as well as the scope, and the comparison of the amount of supplies this time. The amount of supplies this time can only be topped for a while. If Longshuizhou is to survive safely, this batch The supplies are really insufficient." Liu Yiyu said simply.

Yi Yunqu put away his usual foolish look, with a serious face, "We also saw it on the way here, and almost all of them were homeless people who were frozen to death. The two biggest problems are hunger and cold, and only one problem can be solved. Cotton clothes, as long as the quantity is enough, can deal with the cold winter, but this is the problem."

"Last year's autumn harvest was unsatisfactory. This year's winter storage is not enough, and the food we brought is not enough to support it. If it is not distributed properly, it may cause civil unrest." Yi Yunqu burst into tears.

This is the most difficult problem to solve, food.

"If the food distribution is uneven, it may cause competition, but this time the food can only last for about half a month at most, and the food needs to be delivered from the capital...Let me think about it," Ion Yuan still held the booklet in his hand , think carefully.

"If I send an additional emergency ticket, if the speed of the capital is fast, it may be able to meet the gap of this food." Liu Yiyu said calmly.

"Tell the common people to come to collect the cotton-padded clothes, distribute the food every day, remember not to disclose the lack of supplies to the outside world, and wait for the imperial court to supply food." Ion Yuan put down the booklet and ordered directly.

"Yes," Liu Yiyu bowed respectfully and saluted. This General Li is really different from those corrupt officials who withheld money for disaster relief.

Yi Yunqu nodded, and vigorously pulled Liu Yiyu to get ready to go to work.

Soon, at night, the snow was getting heavier, and the windows and doors were slapped by the wind and snow, making creaking sounds.

The sound disturbed Tang Anle, and he lay on the bed tossing and turning, unable to fall asleep.

Ion Yuan braved the wind and snow to go back to his room, and when he changed into his clothes that were stained by the wind and snow, and crept into bed, he found that Tang Anle was not asleep.

"It's so late, why didn't you sleep?" Ion Yuan was cold and didn't touch him, but they were separated by a quilt.

"You didn't come back, so you can't sleep..." It might be because of the weather, Tang Anle felt uneasy, he lifted the quilt and slid into Ion Yuan's quilt, even though he was shivering from the cold, he refused to let go of his arms.

Ion Yuan smiled, and rubbed Tang Anle's back with a pair of big palms, "Is this confession?"
