Ning Yayun took A Liang around several nearby villages.
Not much gained!
Ning Yayun looked at A Liang who was sleeping in her arms, reached out and touched his cheek gently, and couldn't help but smile when she saw him smacking his lips.
"go back!"
He took A Liang back to Taoxian County.
Yang Xuan was making arrangements at the Jiedu Envoy's house.
"Officials from all over the country, except for necessary manpower, will go down to the most difficult places to find problems and solve them."
An official said, "Deputy envoy, there are poverty in some places that cannot be solved."
Northern Xinjiang is a poor place, and development is uneven in various places, so some local governments are poor.
Yang Xuan said: "First try our best to let the people have food to eat and a place to shelter from the wind and rain. I will do the rest!"
When an important minister encounters a natural disaster like this, he will be cautious in expressing his views and will not get into trouble.
But Yang Xuan chose to take the responsibility on himself without hesitation, which is admirable.
Yang Xuan looked at the crowd, "The ugly words are ahead. Anyone who hesitates to move forward, is afraid of difficulties, is lazy in government, and does not give the people a way to live, then I will cut off his life first!"
These words were full of murderous intent, but Liu Qing praised them: "Those officials are all skinned, and that's how it should be."
Will these officials listen to what you say all day long about caring for the people?
It's strange to hear it.
There are only two ways to make them change, reward and punishment!
Yang Xuan stood up and said, "Let's all go!"
"yes!"
Everyone resigned.
Yang Xuan and Liu Qing were the only ones left in the lobby.
Liu Qing took a sip of tea and said, "This is a natural disaster. It makes me laugh when I think about it over there in Chang'an. In the opera garden, the singing and dancing are even more joyful. Northern Xinjiang is just Northern Xinjiang after all."
The old man has a complaint.
Yang Xuan said: "Has Chang'an ever taken action against natural disasters in Northern Xinjiang in the past?"
Liu Qing shook his head.
Yang Xuan smiled and said: "Then what do you expect?"
Liu Qing sighed, "After all, we are all in the Tang Dynasty! Having a mouth full of oil while eating and being hungry and cold at the same time, this is not a prosperous age, damn it! This is absurd!"
This is true, Yang Xuan said: "The emperor regards the people of the world as nothing, and the people of the world will naturally regard him as nothing. However, this requires a process."
Both of them knew that when this process was over, it would be the time for Northern Xinjiang to raise high the banner of rebellion.
Liu Qing's eyes became more intense, "It's said to be a natural disaster, but it would be a good thing if it can be undone."
"I don't just want to save it, I want to take this opportunity to make a difference to the world."
"What's the meaning?"
"Just wait and see."
A petty official came in and said, "Deputy envoy, Master Ning is here."
"Please come in quickly."
Yang Xuan got up and went by himself.
Ning Yayun came in with A Liang in her arms. Seeing him running this way in a hurry, she couldn't help but smile, "I took A Liang out. Even if I encounter thousands of troops, I can still bring him back."
Yang Xuan felt relieved when he saw his son sleeping soundly, "I'm not thinking about your hard work."
"You are becoming more and more hypocritical."
Yang Xuan smiled dryly, "Many times, hypocrisy is sincerity."
Ning Yayun talked about her trip, "...those villagers are honest and honest, don't blame them."
Yang Xuan shook his head, "The sky above their heads is only that big, and when they look up, the world they can see is only that big.
Their wealth and life are in their hands and in the fields.
Farming hard is their only way to survive.
Otherwise, they see no chance to change the status quo.
As time passed, those hopes were lost.
People are desperate.
When despair reaches the extreme, you will give up.
Then I gave up, surrendered to life, and accepted whatever came my way.
Find joy in suffering.
He looked cheerful.
This is ignorance in the eyes of outsiders - living such a difficult life and still being silly and happy, what else is this but ignorance?
In fact, I just gave up on life."
Ning Yayun was moved, "I am quite surprised that you can think of this."
"I was born in hardship." Yang Xuan thought for a moment and thought of Yuanzhou, "When faced with natural disasters, they are powerless. Who can they only rely on? Ethereal gods. Whose fault is this?"
Yang Xuan pointed to himself and the officials walking around.
Everyone stopped.
Yang Xuan said: "Herdsmen and herdsmen, the word "herds" fully expresses the mentality of officials.
We don't seek development, we just want the people to produce something like cattle and sheep every year...that is, to pay taxes.
You said it was absurd before, but I want to say that this mentality is even more absurd.
The people put all their efforts into supporting the officials and those in power, which is us.
Then, we should do our best to plan for them and make their lives better.
Those who have a herdsman mentality will sooner or later be overthrown by the common people whom they regard as cattle and horses."
Yang Xuan looked at the officials and asked, "Is there nothing left to do?"
The officials handed over their hands and went their separate ways in silence.
"What you said impressed me deeply. I believe these officials will remember it in their lifetime."
"We can't expect officials to consciously do things for the people. They have to look to their superiors."
Yang Xuan pointed to himself, "I am here. If I do things for the people sincerely, I will keep an eye on them. Then, the officials in the entire northern Xinjiang will follow my will."
"But the one in Chang'an is enjoying himself in the pear garden!"
Ning Yayun never concealed her disdain for the false emperor.
"So, he is destined to leave a record of shame in the annals of history."
Ah Liang woke up and said, "Yeah!"
Yang Xuan reached out and hugged him and said with a smile: "Is it fun outside?"
"Play!" A Liang clapped his hands. For some reason, Yang Xuan felt that the child's eyes were getting darker.
After hearing the news, Zhou Ning sent Zheng Wuniang to pick up the child.
"Xiao Langjun."
Seeing A Liang, Zheng Wuniang had tears in her eyes, worried and excited.
A Liang stretched out his hand and Zheng Wuniang took it, looked at it carefully and touched it.
There were also several Qiu Long Guards who came with them, and Zhang Xu personally went out to escort the eldest young master back.
This lineup is extremely powerful.
As long as they can resist for a moment, Lin Feibao and others from the Jiedushi Mansion can arrive for reinforcements.
Yang Xuan asked: "Will there be any gains from this trip?"
"You mean A Liang?" Ning Yayun was about to go back.
"yes."
"I don't know either."
"You..."
"That ancestor's soul was extremely powerful back then. This is the only thing I know."
"Okay! By the way." Yang Xuan said: "Other places are also offering sacrifices to the so-called drum god..."
Northern Xinjiang supports metaphysics, and now it's time for them to contribute in return.
"I will ask my disciples to inspect various places to expose the so-called drum god."
"appropriate."
There are a bunch of masters in metaphysics, only Ning Yayun and An Ziyu can control them.
Ning Yayun went back.
Yang Xuan went to the street and inspected various places first.
The accompanying official introduced the situation, "In the early morning, I ordered various inspections to be carried out. I found more than 100 collapsed houses, and then called in rescuers."
Yang Xuan looked at the official's red eyes, which were so cold in winter. There were a few fire bubbles hanging from the corners of his mouth, and his face was flushed. He suppressed the dissatisfaction in his heart and said, "Well done."
Many times, what he needs more is attitude.
If the ability is great but the attitude is wrong, then the greater the ability, the greater the mistake.
The ability is small, but the attitude is right. Although the ability is small, it can be superimposed.
Just like a false emperor, how powerful is he?
big!
But he used all his abilities for checks and balances, for fighting for power, and for enjoyment.
The greater this ability, the more dangerous the Tang Dynasty is.
Yang Xuan visited the victims, and after seeing that they had no worries about food and clothing, he went outside the city.
"Not back yet?"
Yang Xuan was a little anxious.
Jiang He'er said: "It's only been half a day before we set off! Mr. Lang."
Yang Xuan urgently needs to know the situation everywhere, and many people in the city also want to know about the disaster in Northern Xinjiang.
Lin Qian and Sun Xian were drinking.
Snowflakes were flying outside, and it was as warm as spring indoors. The two of them exchanged cups and cups, and they were very happy.
"I don't know what happened." Sun Xian glanced outside.
A servant came to report, "Mr. Lang, Deputy Ambassador Yang has brought people out of the city and is waiting."
"He's anxious!" Lin Qian smiled.
"I'm in a hurry!" Sun Xianzi drank a glass of wine and said happily: "But what's the use of being anxious? Will God still obey his orders? Let's continue drinking."
"Dry!"
…
Wang Zun was also drinking.
Sitting alone in the study room, looking at the snowflakes outside, I didn’t use any food, just drinking one cup after another.
Lin Xi hurried in.
"Sir, after Yang Xuan inspected the city, he went out of the city and waited."
Wang Zundan said calmly: "He is anxious!"
Lin Xi smiled and said: "Yes! It is said that his eyes are red."
Wang Zun pointed to the empty wine glass, Lin Xi picked up the wine jug in the warm water and filled it for him.
Wang Zun took the wine glass and said: "When faced with such a thing in the past dynasties, the only way was for the government to intervene to provide disaster relief. But Yang Xuan and Chang'an had a falling out, who could they count on?
The more miserable those people are, the more they will hate him. What is this?"
Lin Xi said: "This is your own fault."
Wang Zun shook his head, "This is God's will! God wants to kill Yang Xuan!"
…
Ta-ta-ta!
The first group of people are back.
"Deputy envoy, many houses have collapsed everywhere."
The second group of people is back...
All it brings is bad news.
Everywhere is trembling under the power of God.
"what to do?"
In Jiedushi's house, the officials were waiting for Yang Xuan, and they were talking a lot.
"The only way to open a position is to open a position," an official said.
"That's right, the only way is to open a position."
"But where is the house?"
"Where are the clothes?"
"What about the epidemic?"
Questions were raised one after another, and the atmosphere became more and more solemn.
Liu Qing was deep in thought.
"The deputy envoy is here."
Everyone turned around.
Yang Xuan entered the lobby wearing snowflakes, shook himself, and the snowflakes fell.
He looked at everyone, rubbed his face, and said, "Are you all here?"
"yes."
Yang Xuan walked up to the table and sat down. A clerk brought him hot tea. He took a greedy sip and felt a stream of heat extending from his mouth, which was very pleasant.
"The situation is not good everywhere."
An official said: "Deputy envoy, please provide disaster relief!"
"Open the granary and store grain."
"People have a lot of food in their homes. The most important thing is to have a place to shelter from the wind and rain."
"yes!"
The crowd was noisy.
When Liu Qing saw Yang Xuan frowning, he said, "Stop it."
Everyone shut up, and Yang Xuan said, "It's better to do it than to say it. The entire northern Xinjiang is suffering at the moment. Send a message to the officials in various places."
Someone started recording.
The atmosphere was a bit tense.
"Your salary is your salary, and the people are fat and the people are anointed."
On the occasion of a natural disaster, officials from all over the country must take action and go to the front lines of the disaster. As the same saying goes, discover problems and solve them.
There are no problems that cannot be solved, only problems that we don’t want to solve.
Anyone who slacks off...engages in military law!"
Is there actually a need for military marching? Everyone was shocked.
"Send orders to garrison troops everywhere."
The generals stood up.
Yang Xuan put down his tea cup, "The food, clothing, housing, transportation, and armor you are waiting for are all made from the sweat of the common people.
At this time, troops stationed everywhere must be mobilized and obey the deployment of officials from various places. Go to the disaster area to rescue the trapped people and help them clean up and rebuild their homes..."
"Deputy Ambassador, there are no such rules!"
An official stood up and said, "In all dynasties, the most important thing for the army is to defend against the enemy. If the troops in Northern Xinjiang are mobilized, what will happen if Northern Liao attacks?"
Yang Xuan glanced at everyone, "Are you all worried about this? Don't worry, by the time they send troops and arrive, this snowstorm will be over."
This is the time difference.
Moreover, with Nangui City as an outpost... At this time, the great value of capturing and holding Nangui City is reflected.
The officials and generals all looked at Yang Xuan with something special.
Deputy envoy, it is indeed remarkable!
Yang Xuan stood up and said, "Everyone!"
Everyone stood up and stood with their hands tied.
Yang Xuan said: "A natural disaster is an order. Starting today, officials from all over the country will donate half a month's money and food."
No one had any objections.
"For soldiers everywhere, food supplies will be halved next month."
this……
Historically, natural disasters have used less troops and more men.
But Yang Xuan set a precedent today.
They even have to make the army cut back on food and clothing to help the victims... There's no such thing!
"Deputy envoy...the army will be dissatisfied!"
Yang Xuan said: "There has always been a sense of arrogance in the army. Without it, the world would be in chaos.
Today I want to tell them that without the common people, they are nothing.
Pass it on according to my words, I am here to see who dares to change the world!"
"yes!"
Everyone was awestruck.
Yang Xuan said: "Liu Gong will stay in Taoxian County, and the rest, those who should be left behind, will go to help with those who can spare their hands."
"yes."
"Nan He!"
"exist!"
"Keep an eye on Tao County. Anyone who dares to act strangely will be killed and their homes will be confiscated without asking for permission!"
"yes."
"Jiang Cunzhong."
"exist!"
"Twenty thousand people were left in Taoxian County, and the rest of the army was dispersed and rushed to various places for disaster relief."
"yes."
"Go for it!"
Yang Xuan waved his hand.
Everyone resigned.
Liu Qing asked: "What about you?"
"I'll go look around."
Yang Xuan said: "Under natural disasters, people will be helpless and complain. At this time, I should be with them."
He walked out of the lobby.
"Deputy envoy, Xin Wuji would like to see you."
"Well, it came quickly."
Xin Wuji came in, knelt down, and said piously: "Xin Wuji has met the master."
"How much jerky did you bring?"
"Two hundred cars."
"Okay." Yang Xuan called an official, "distribute the dried meat to the soldiers."
At this time, dried meat is the fighting force.
"yes."
Yang Xuan looked at Xin Wuji, "Don't be idle. Take your men and horses to patrol everywhere. If you find a horse thief... put up a pole!"
"yes!"
"Go for it!"
Xin Wuji kissed his boots devoutly, then stood up and left.
He is really not used to this habit!
Yang Xuan went back home, explained some things, and then left Tao County with his people.
Yang family.
Zhou Ning said: "Put some money and food at home!"
Those powerful men were drinking and having fun at home, celebrating this natural disaster.
The wine is like nectar, watering the black heart.
