 Old Man Hua fell silent.

Although he has never seen the doomsday scene of flooding and vast oceans.

But at the end of the Sui Dynasty, when the world was in chaos and people were starving everywhere, he had personally experienced it.

Man! When he is extremely hungry, he is no longer a man...but a beast dominated by his nature!

For the sake of food, they would give away their wives and children without hesitation, even if they watched them being cooked and turned into pieces of meat in the pot.

And in order to prevent themselves from being hungry any longer, they dared to do anything that they had never even dared to think about before!

As Xiao Han said before, if someone dares to give alms in a disaster area, countless victims will immediately come after hearing the news and completely drown this "good man"!

This is not alarmist, but something that actually happens!

"This matter is difficult to handle!"

After a long time, Old Man Hua let out a sigh of relief and looked at Xiao Han with a worried expression.

At first, he thought that as long as there was food, things in the disaster area would be solved immediately.

But now it seems that this is not the case.

"This matter is said to be difficult to handle, but it is actually easy to handle!"

At this moment, Xiao Han didn't have the same worries as Old Man Hua. He smiled and turned behind Old Man Hua, while lightly tapping Old Man Hua's shoulder, he said: "When we get to the place, we will immediately send people to contact the surrounding areas! Let those

Those who are qualified can join us in giving porridge! This will prevent disaster victims from gathering in one place and reduce the number of disasters."

"Let them give porridge from all over the place?" However, when Old Man Hua heard this, his brows furrowed even more tightly: "Are they willing?"

"No?" Xiao Han grinned, showing his sharp white teeth and said: "At that time, it's not up to them to decide whether they are willing or not! Don't you think Liu Hongji followed me just for fun?"

"Hiss...you want to use weapons?"

Although he had expected this in his heart, when he heard these words coming from Xiao Han's mouth, Old Man Hua couldn't help but take a breath of cold air. He turned around and looked at his precious apprentice in confusion.

"I don't want this either! And if they are obedient, there will naturally be no disaster of ruining the family!" Xiao Han smiled softly, but for some reason, his young face was illuminated by the flickering oil lamp.

Wow, it actually looks a bit ferocious at this moment!

In fact, before setting off, Xiao Han knew that this was not a good job! He was not the most suitable candidate either!

Otherwise, Li Shimin would not have hesitated. In the end, he volunteered himself to take on this job.

Shandong has produced heroes since ancient times, and Hebei also has many generous and tragic people.

What's even more terrible is that these two places, one of which is a sacred place of Confucianism and authentic Taoism, have always been somewhat dismissive of Li Shimin who came to seize the throne.

As for the other one, after Dou Jiande's death, he became in conflict with the current Xiao Lizi.

At the beginning of his ascension to the throne, Li Shimin was in a laissez-faire manner towards these two areas that were causing him a lot of headaches, and wanted to use time to heal the gap between them!

But this flood really caught Li Shimin off guard!

As the emperor of the Tang Dynasty, Li Shimin was not afraid of natural disasters!

Because no matter how big the disaster is, there is always time to get through it!

What he is afraid of are some people in the dark corners!

These people have no ability to lead an army or govern a country, but they are good at stirring up trouble and fishing in troubled waters!

Li Shimin is confident that if the two armies confront each other, these clown-like existences will definitely not be his enemies!

But the problem is that these things are hidden in the darkness and cannot be easily revealed, and there is no way to trace their whereabouts!

This time, in order to prevent these people from taking advantage of the chaos again, he once again messed up the country that he had finally stabilized.

Li Shimin made a decree long ago, asking Cheng Yaojin, Qin Shubao and others to secretly pay attention to abnormal situations. If they find any abnormality, they would rather kill them! Don't let them go!

However, although there are these fierce generals in charge of Shandong and Hebei, Li Shimin is still worried because Lao Cheng and others are originally members of the Shandong gentry!

And those poisonous weeds have already infiltrated into the Shandong nobles! By then, will they turn a blind eye to these poisonous weeds due to family reasons? Or should they be open-minded?

Li Shimin himself didn’t have much confidence!

Therefore, he wanted someone who was not a Shandong military general to patrol the disaster area for him. Once he found something was wrong, he would make an immediate decision to eliminate the disaster invisible.

For such a person, Li Shimin's first choice was the executioner Hou Junji.

But this guy was kicked to Gaochang by him last year, and now he is having a fierce fight with Ju Wentai, the king of Gaochang Kingdom, and there is no way he can come back.

As for the second candidate, it is Heitan Yuchi Jingde!

But Li Shimin didn't know that this murderer who had killed countless people had become crazy recently.

He actually put down the knife in his hand, put on his cassock, and devoted himself to practicing Buddhist scriptures every day. It is said that in order to worship the Buddha, he even stopped drinking wine and eating meat.

Is such a person still the invincible general he was before the battle?

Apart from these two candidates, the remaining people such as Li Jing, Chai Shao, Changsun Shunde and others are now in a state of semi-retirement.

As for Xue Rengui and other young men in the army, they lack sufficient qualifications and reputation, and may find it difficult to control the situation if they fail.

In the end, after all the calculations, Xiao Han, the general of the Seventeenth Guards who was not the best candidate, became the tallest man out of the thicket.

Together with Liu Hongji, who had a lot of free time, he was sent on this disaster relief trip.

"Refugee, refugee!" He muttered this word softly, and Xiao Han suddenly smiled bitterly.

Tonight, those Luoyang gentry paid for their food so simply. It must be that the refugees had a big influence on it!

If all the refugees from the lower reaches crowded into Luoyang City, then these Luoyang nobles would be very worried.

As an official, my favorite thing is to provide relief to the victims of disasters in my family.

Because this can not only build a good reputation for caring for the people like a son, but also allow many accounts to be prevaricated quietly!

This is also the safest and safest way to settle the accounts. Even when you get to the Jinluan Palace, you can tell the emperor with all your heart that the food was eaten by the victims! If you don’t believe me, open their stomachs and have a look!

Similarly, the thing I dislike most about being an official is to help other people’s victims!

Because those foreigners could bring nothing but diseases! And in order to feed them, officials would have to use official grain silos.

And with this move, all the people in the city will explode!

We have worked so hard to save what we ourselves are not willing to eat, so why should we give it to those beggars outside?
