Several provinces suffered from drought at the same time. Even if the court actively provided disaster relief and distributed relief grains and drought-tolerant grain seeds, it still could not completely solve the problem.

After August, large numbers of refugees gathered outside many cities.

At first, officials in the disaster-stricken provinces were reluctant to allow the refugees to move to Xiliang. After all, the number of people under their control was related to their annual political performance.

But in September, the weather started to get colder, and some officials couldn't sit still.

There is no way, October is already very cold in the north, and it has begun to snow in some places. With lack of food and clothing, the number of refugees starving to death and freezing will rise sharply.

Most importantly, officials are worried that a civil commotion will break out among the refugees, and if many people die, it may even trigger a plague.

As a result, some provinces that were unable to cope with the disaster relief continued to submit offers to the capital and agreed to relocate the refugees.

......

Weiyuan Palace.

In front of the gate, Daozi jumped out of the carriage neatly, and then ran back to the main courtyard happily. Before anyone could enter the house, excited voices came in: "Mom, dad went to the academy to ask for leave for me today, saying that he would be there tomorrow.

Take me out for a walk."

Daohua was painting with the twins when she heard the sound and looked up at the door. After a while, she saw Daozi running in happily.

When Daozi came to him, Daohua took out a handkerchief and wiped the sweat on his forehead, and asked with a smile: "Where is your father taking you to?"

The look on Daozi's face was still very exciting, and he said loudly: "Dad said he was going out of Xiliang, saying that he was going to receive the migrating refugees. This time he took me with him to let me follow him to learn more. Mother, hurry up

Let me pack my things for going out."

Looking at her son who can't wait to go out and see the world, Daohua's mood is a little complicated. Her son has grown up and is no longer the little dumpling who likes to stick to her every day.

The complicated mood passed in an instant. Daohua looked at her son with a smile: "What do you want to take out?"

Daazi counted with his fingers: "Clothes, shoes, toys, story books... I brought all the things I'm used to."

Hearing this, Daohua did not express her position immediately. She asked the maid and mother-in-law to look at the twins and accompanied Daozi to the wing where he lived.

"You go out by yourself, prepare your own things, and your mother is watching you."

When Daozi saw that his mother was letting him make the decision, he immediately went to pack his things happily.

Bring your favorite doll clothes, the fragrant pillow that your mother gave you, and the multi-treasure box...

Daazi happily put the things he wanted to take on the table. Soon the table was full, and then he put it on the table next to him.

A pile of busy work, the table, the bed, were all piled with things that Dazai wanted to take away.

"I'm so exhausted!"

Seeing Daozi's exhausted expression, Daohua smiled and shook her head, giving him the milk tea brought by the maid.

After Daozi took a breath, Daohua asked: "Are you sure you have to bring all these things?"

Dao Zi nodded hurriedly: "Of course, Guard Jiang told me when I came back that it's very hard to go out and not eat well or sleep well."

Having said this, Daozi quickly looked at Guyu aside: "Aunt Guyu, please quickly ask the people in the kitchen to help me make more pastries that I like to eat. I have to bring them tomorrow."

Daohua laughed: "Do you know what it means to travel with a light carriage and a simple journey?"

Dao Zi was stunned for a moment, then shook his head.

Daohua: "The meaning of light carriage and simplicity means that when you go out, you should try to pack as simple as possible and take as few things as possible. Do you know why this is?"

Daozi's eyes widened: "Why?"

Daohua: "Because when you go out, you will encounter many things and some unpredictable accidents will happen. If you bring too many things, not only will it not make you comfortable, but it may become a burden to you."<

/p>

Daozi looked puzzled.

Daohua pointed to the exquisite ornaments that Daozi had brought with her: "These things were given to you by your grandfather. They are difficult to see outside. If you take out any one at random, it will arouse the peeps of others.

”

"Don't show off your wealth when you go out. Don't let others know that you are a big fat sheep when they see you."

"When a hungry wolf sees a fat sheep, you know the consequences."

Daozi was silent, a little unconvinced: "Dad will protect me."

Daohua: "What if your father is not with you for something? If you are not afraid of thieves, you are afraid of being missed. Even when you are away from home, your father is not omnipotent."

By saying this, Daohua just wants Daozi to know how to be respectful and fearless outside. It is very dangerous to run rampant.

Dao Zi thought for a while, then walked over and collected the more delicate-looking things: "Then I won't take them with me."

Daohua smiled and nodded, watching Daozi delete things encouragingly, and continued: "We all go out for a purpose."

"Like when your grandmother and Grandpa Chu left, because they were returning home to the capital and would basically never come back again, they could take away everything in their courtyard."

"But this time, what is the purpose of your going out?"

Dao Zi: "Go out with dad and learn more."

Daohua didn't need to continue talking, Daozi took the initiative to delete the things he wanted to bring again.

Daohua nodded and kept talking: "Your father is on an errand, so the journey won't be too slow, so you won't need the doll clothes with you at all."

"When preparing things when you go out, you don't just take whatever you want. You have to decide based on your purpose, the length of time you will be away, and your destination."

"Now think about it carefully, what should you bring?"

Daozi looked at the rice flowers, sighed heavily, and then pretended to accept his fate. After a lot of busy work, in the end there was only a small half-collapsed thing left.

"Is this okay?"

Daohua looked at the remaining things, which were all clothes, shoes, socks and other necessary items. She nodded with a smile and praised without hesitation: "Daohua is so smart."

Dao Zi looked at the things he had deleted reluctantly, and sighed inwardly. He would play with it after he comes back with his father.

After Daozi packed up her things, Daohua returned to the main room and began to help Xiao Yeyang pack up and salute.

In the evening, Xiao Yeyang came back a little late, and the twins were almost asleep.

Thinking of not being able to see the twins for a while when he went to pick up the refugees this time, Xiao Yeyang felt reluctant and played with the twins for a long time.

"Why are you walking so fast?"

After the twins fell asleep, Daohua asked.

Xiao Yeyang: "Officials from the disaster-stricken provinces are reluctant to release the refugees. They have been dragging them until now. It is almost October. October in Xiliang is very cold. We must pick up the refugees and resettle them as soon as possible."<

/p>

Daohua asked again: "How many refugees does the emperor agree to move over?"

Xiao Yeyang silently calculated: "The total number of provinces should be 100,000. It sounds like a lot, but if you divide it into several prefectures, you can get more than 10,000 people. If you divide it further,
