Chapter 18 Relief for work 1

Li Yuan thought for a moment and analyzed: "Given the temperament of His Highness the Prince, he will definitely not come to such a remote place. He will probably recommend himself to patrol the Jiangnan area. So among the remaining three princes, the most likely ones to come are the fourth prince Yang Jun and the fifth prince."

Prince Yang forgives me."

Changsheng: "What are the personalities of these two princes?"

Li Yuan stroked his beard: "The third prince is kind by nature, advocates Buddhism and Taoism, and is quite accomplished in poetry. The fourth prince is bold and resolute. He has been fond of wielding swords and guns since he was a child, and he is also a warrior in his daily life."

Changsheng nodded and thought: There is really a big difference between these two brothers. He then suggested: "Father, I think the money and food for disaster relief should be dealt with from these two brothers. Do you think they are princes, and

They are imperial envoys, and what they hear and see must be heard directly by Heaven. The Emperor’s decision will definitely take their opinions into consideration first, so how to deal with their inspections becomes a top priority.”

Li Yuan had just taken office as the local governor. He had just arrived and the situation was urgent. For a while, he only thought about how to raise food and provide relief to the victims, but he did not consider this aspect at all.

Now after his son mentioned it, he remembered that someone among his colleagues had mentioned this matter a few days ago, but he didn't take it seriously at the time. Now that he thought about it, it was probably because the other party saw that he had no intention of doing this, so he kept silent.

Now that I think about it, my cultivation as an official is not as good as that of a child!

At that moment, he also blushed and praised: "My child's words are reasonable. As a father, if you think about it carefully, it is true."

Changsheng knew that Li Yuan was thin-faced, so he smiled and comforted him: "Father is busy with many things, so it is normal for him to ignore it for a while. But our next task is to first determine which prince is coming here to inspect, what is his schedule, and when will he arrive?

How was the reception of previous inspections in several states and counties?"

"Yes, I will send someone to investigate tomorrow. What else should we do?" Li Yuan asked.

"In addition to receiving inspections from the peak, disaster prevention and epidemic prevention work must be done. After all, it is related to the life and death of millions of people. However, the government must have fixed regulations on operational matters. You can operate according to them. I just

I would like to make some small suggestions.”

Li Yuan: "It doesn't matter if you just say it."

Changsheng looked at Li Yuan, candlelight flickering in his big bright eyes: "Relief with work."

…

Late at night, Li Yuan was extremely shocked by Chang Sheng's words. He looked at the curtain above his head and could not fall asleep for a long time.

Mrs. Dou on the side turned over and asked in a daze: "Master, you haven't gone to bed yet. You have to go to the government office tomorrow. Go to bed early and don't get exhausted."

Unexpectedly, Li Yuan turned over, hugged his wife and said, "It's okay, I'm fine. You really gave birth to a lucky star for our family! Wife, why don't we work hard and have another baby?"

Mrs. Dou was made red-faced by him, and said, "Oh, sir, what are you talking about?!"

…

The next morning, after Li Yuan got up, he followed the plan discussed last night and sent several groups of servants out. After washing, he sang a little tune and came to have breakfast.

Due to the locust plague, the private schools here have temporarily suspended classes. Jixiang is now reviewing his lessons at home.

Li Yuan asked about Jixiang's academic performance, Changsheng's injury, and whether Ruyi insisted on exercising. The atmosphere throughout the breakfast was joyful and peaceful, unlike the serious and depressing atmosphere of the previous few days.

After breakfast, Li Yuan said goodbye to his family and went out.

Mr. Dou breathed a sigh of relief and said happily: "Your father finally smiled today, unlike the past few days when he was gloomy every day and looked scary."

Changsheng smiled and said: "My mother takes good care of the family. My father no longer has any worries, so he can do things easily and feel at ease."

"You are the best at talking and making me happy. It's not my fault." Mrs. Dou's face lit up with joy. She stretched out her hand and nodded Chang Sheng's head: "By the way, what did you say to your father in the study yesterday? He said yesterday

I stayed up half the night and kept talking strange things." Dou's face turned red as if he remembered something.

"Ah, it's nothing. I just agreed that I would go out today. Could you please mother point me to some strong servants?"

"My hand is not healed yet, why are you running around?" Mrs. Dou frowned, with a look of disagreement.

"I've been at home these past few days, either sleeping or lying down. It's really boring and uncomfortable. Why don't you go around the streets to see if there are any novel gadgets to buy back, and take a look at Xiao Cui's injury by the way. Second

Brother, will you come with me?"

When Ruyi heard the name "Xiao Cui", she subconsciously wanted to refuse, but she also wanted to go out to play. After thinking for a long time, she finally nodded and agreed.

Changsheng clapped his little hands and said, "Dele, mother, where is the money I deposited with you last time? Take it out for me."

"Ah? What do you do with so much money when you go out?" the mother asked nervously and doubtfully.

As Changsheng walked into the house, he turned around and made a reassuring gesture, "When a child goes out, of course he wants to buy something~" After that, he took the maid and ran away with a smile.

"It's not a festival, what kind of trouble is this?" Mrs. Dou felt confused.

…

Not long after, Chang Sheng, dressed in Tsing Yi, set off with his second brother and three or four servants.

The locust army has passed through the border for three days. Although the streets are still in a mess, most of the insect corpses have been cleaned up and various shops have opened one after another. However, many shop doors are still stained with some dried yellow-green sap, which spreads out.

Has a weird smell.

Except for the occasional sight of a few grasshoppers that escaped from the large army, as well as bare tree trunks and dotted windows, the whole street looked as before.

Ruyi was nibbling on a piece of sugar cane she had just bought. She seemed to be in a good mood. She walked up to Jixiang and asked, "Where are we going to play?"

Changsheng turned back to look at the leader of the servants behind him, "Which Renyazi market did my father send people to?"

The servant hurriedly bowed to her ear and said: "Several people in the city have sent people there. The nearest one is in Dongshi, but there are a lot of refugees there recently. If you want to buy someone, tell us to go there."

That’s it.”

Changsheng waved his hand, "No problem, I just want to go for a walk."

When a few people swaggered into Dongshi, they realized that something was wrong.

The streets here in Dongshi are narrow and there are many people coming and going. The morning is the busiest time. Although the flow of people is not crowded, there is still a lot of pushing and shoving when walking.

But no matter where Changsheng and his party went, people would automatically get out of the way, as if Changsheng had a protective circle of his own.

Looking at the awed looks from the people around him, Changsheng lowered his head and looked at the clothes on his body, and instantly understood that his mother didn't know the purpose of her coming out today. She thought she was just going out for fun, so she specially prepared a light blue brocade robe with a waistband.

There is also a tiger-head jade pendant hanging in the room, and there are a few strong servants behind him. This is not just shopping. Isn't this a show of wealth?

Compare the people around you, they are all dressed in linen and coarse cloth, some of them don't even have straw sandals, let alone silk and satin, and they are barefoot.

Although Chang Sheng was a human being in two lives, his state of mind was very different, but facing the gazes of countless eyes, he felt like thorns on his back. He cursed in his heart for not checking clearly before going out. He touched his nose and whispered in a low voice:

"It seems that today is not a good time to come here. Let's go somewhere else for now."

Ruyi took a mouthful of the candied haws she just bought and said, "Ah, are you going to stop turning it now?"

"Change a place." Chang Sheng said and led everyone to escape in embarrassment.

Just after he had walked a few steps out of Dongshi, the servant behind him suddenly grabbed Chang Sheng and kicked him out.

A young man who looked like a scholar was immediately kicked to the ground, clutching his belly, and his waist was bent like a shrimp.

Ruyi shouted excitedly: "It's so heart-warming!"

Chang Sheng complained silently: "Wo Xin Jiao", as the name suggests, kicks the chest. This kick is obviously in the stomach. But the weight of this kick is not light.

Take a closer look: this man has a thin body, wearing a green robe with wide sleeves, the cuffs are frayed and patched a few times, washed white and clean, with a square scarf on his head and a pair of cloth shoes at his feet

.

It turns out that he is a scholar.
