Chapter 967: On the way to the county seat
Chapter 967 On the way to the county town
"Your Highness, why are we not as good as the city?"
Qingzhu sat in the carriage, gently rubbing her temples with her tender little hands.
Looking at Chi Dao in the distance from the car window, his big eyes were full of doubt.
In order to inspect the whole country, the emperor repaired the road.
But it is only linked to the counties and cities.
From the county town to the county town below, the road conditions are relatively poor.
This trip was a private visit. Why did you pass the county town and not enter? Instead, you put on the spacious road and entered another path?
Qin Xuan closed his eyes and enjoyed the gentle rubbing of his hands in his temples.
He smiled and said, "The county town doesn't need to be seen. There is a prime minister and a patrol team staring at it, and no one dares to be careful.
On the contrary, the more remote counties and townships are the focus of this trip.
There is a saying that ignorant people are fearless, and those who understand the pros and cons, know more about fear.
On the contrary, those old turtles below who think they are noble in their identities are truly arrogant and amazing!”
Qingzhu blinked her big eyes, and a thoughtful look appeared on her pretty face.
When she was in Zhao State, she saw too many playboys arrogant and domineering.
On the contrary, these playboys were cautious in their work.
Even if you are not so bad, you have done enough superficial skills on the surface.
The same is true for the local officials of Qin State.
The important officials in the court held high positions and paid more attention to etiquette and image. Even if they were ruthless, they would have some concerns.
Know how to judge the situation better.
On the contrary, those who rely on being a minor official with real power act erratic and indulge their family members to ignore the laws and regulations, are extremely arrogant!
Qingzhu nodded her little head and understood His Highness’s intention.
Those county magistrates and lieutenants will definitely handle the affairs of the victims.
On the contrary, the local emperors who think that the mountains are high and the emperors are far away are more unscrupulous.
The purpose of this trip is to visit these places.
Check whether the disaster relief is really carried out according to the court's instructions.
Dongdong ~!
The car door knocked gently.
Second update of the voice came from outside: "Your Highness, the news from the spy has been sent."
Qin Xuan closed his eyes and said lightly: "Remember."
Second Geng hurriedly looked at the note in his hand and read it according to the two words on the note:
"Kuishui County!"
Then, a faint voice came from the carriage: "Accelerate!"
In the second update, I realized immediately and immediately conveyed the order to accelerate the progress.
And the direction we are heading is Kuishui County 30 miles away!
As for the road guide needed by the caravan, the road guide cannot be opened as the prince's identity.
A road directed with the mark of the official office was directly led to the county mark, and in the name of the official office, we went to all counties unobstructed!
...
In the afternoon, the weather was still hot.
Qin Xuan sat in the carriage and looked out from the window where the curtains were lifted.
Although you can't see the locusts at this moment, it's not because you haven't suffered any disaster.
But because at this moment, you can hardly see green!
The locusts cannot find plants that can be eaten, so they will go to the next place!
From time to time, three or five people could gather in the fields that had been damaged by locusts to search.
Everyone's body was thin and his face was sallow, and there was no sign of his eyes, and there was only numbness.
When Qingzhu saw a woman peeling a piece of tree bark not far away and feeding it into the mouth of a four or five-year-old child next to her, she frowned and her eyes were full of solemnity.
Born as a lady from a wealthy family, she has been frugal since childhood, and even after her country was destroyed, she was sent to the palace.
This is the first time I have seen a disaster scene.
Especially when I saw the woman tearing the bark that had been washed with water to make it easier to swallow and feed it carefully into the child's mouth, my heart couldn't help but feel sore.
A layer of mist appeared in the big eyes.
"parking!"
Suddenly, a low voice came from beside him.
There was a chill in the calm voice!
Immediately, the convoy stopped.
Qin Xuan looked at the mother and son not far away and said in a deep voice: "Bring her... please come here!"
The second update immediately took the order and ran towards the mother and son.
A kind smile appeared on his face, pointing at the convoy as if he was saying something.
When the woman looked at the convoy, her eyes showed panic.
After Qin Xuan was regent, he did not clearly improve the status of merchants.
However, vigorously promoting and supporting commercial development also proves the court's attention to merchants.
Especially some big taxpayers have received the reward from the official office.
Invisibly, the status of the identity has increased slightly.
Now a woman who was so hungry that she was gnawing on the bark of a tree, she saw a dozen carriages and a caravan protecting the hospital, and she was naturally in awe.
However, at the gentle invitation of the second update, the former child came over carefully.
Qin Xuan took care of his clothes and walked out of the carriage.
Second Geng said respectfully: "Young Master, I've brought it here."
Seeing this, the woman hurriedly saluted respectfully: "I've seen the uncle!"
Although he didn't know the other party's identity, he was definitely not an ordinary person to be able to travel with dozens of guards.
Moreover, seeing these people are full of energy, they can see that they are rich at first glance.
Most importantly, there is obviously no shortage of food…!
But even if I long in my heart, I don’t dare to speak.
Qin Xuan felt very uncomfortable when he looked at the thin mother and son.
As the master of the Qin Dynasty, it is his responsibility to see his people starve!
He said in a gentle voice: "No need to be polite."
Then he ordered: "Go and get some food and drinking water."
The green bamboo has already made the scene of eating the bark so sad.
I immediately took a few naan breads with minced meat and a bag of clean water.
However, the woman looked at a few minced naan breads, but she was a little hesitant and did not dare to reach out for a moment.
It’s not that I’m worried about meeting bad people, or that I’m afraid that the food is toxic.
But because of the strict hierarchy, especially when it is time to eat the bark to satisfy your hunger, I feel even more humble.
Even when facing merchants, I dare not look up.
The child looked at the naan bread and swallowed it hard, and saliva flowed out of the corner of his mouth.
But seeing that my mother did not agree, she could only look at the naan bread longingly, but she did not dare to reach out to pick it up.
Qin Xuan felt very complicated when he saw the reactions of the mother and son.
He said with a gentle expression: "You don't have to worry. We are just passing by here and want to ask you for directions.
How about these naan breads being rewarded for guidance?”
The woman hesitated for a moment and looked at the child with longing faces again.
He bowed deeply: "Thank you!"
After all, although these foods are not much, they can survive!
He took the naan carefully, but he couldn't bear to eat it himself, so he just tore off a small piece and handed it to the child.
The other naan breads were quickly stuffed into my arms, as if they were afraid they would be stolen.
Chapter completed!
