Qi Bao'er and others were so shocked by this answer that they forgot to eat.
Are there any people in this world who take the initiative to go to jail?
Lao Wang nodded heavily and gave them a look: Yes.
Lao Wang, who can produce beef, does have some connections. His brother-in-law is a yamen servant in Fancheng Prefecture.
Therefore, he can understand to some extent some things that ordinary people don't know.
For example, those disaster victims not only took the initiative to get into the prison, but also organized a riot in the prison. Several prisoners who committed serious crimes escaped, and several government officials were injured. One of them was seriously injured until now.
Still unconscious.
Therefore, as long as they did not go too far, the government not only kicked out those who were originally arrested, but also turned a blind eye to the outside world.
And this is not excessive, there are only two rules: do not hurt others, do not harm others.
If he hurt someone or harmed someone else, the official punishment would be several times heavier than the original one. Once when a disaster victim hurt someone, he was slapped on the spot by the government officials.
But if something was just stolen or robbed and you have no evidence, the government will basically not ask anything.
Not to mention being stolen, you don’t even know who did it; the same goes for being robbed, after the government officials slapped people on the spot, the victims did not dare to rob openly anymore, but they were all smart.
He was dragged away and ran away, and you couldn't even see clearly whether the other person was a boy/girl.
Therefore, the next order to evacuate the people was equally urgent.
This was a big problem, and Chen Yi and others seemed to see someone's head falling to the ground in front of the Meridian Gate.
The matter of dragon veins is of great importance. The emperor is anxious and so is the prince.
But he could see that the others were not only respectful to the girl, but also respected her from the bottom of their hearts.
You also heard what the boss said just now. The government here has never given porridge to the victims, instead of always giving alms as stated in the memorial of the Kezhou magistrate. The food stored in the granary is no longer enough."
None of the people in front of me looked like ordinary nobles, and this girl, the only one, looked harmless.
As a result, a secret message was conveyed to Qi Bao'er via the carrier pigeon.
The emperor was always decisive in matters of life and death for the people, so he immediately allocated food for disaster relief.
After Kezhou officials discovered that the victims had no food, they mobilized the government's food reserves to provide disaster relief. At this time, the situation became quite urgent, because in recent years, various natural disasters have occurred in various parts of the Qilin Kingdom.
, the grain reserves in various places are often used first, resulting in the fact that no one place's grain reserves can supply tens of thousands or even more than ten or two hundred thousand people for more than half a month.
As long as the officials in Fancheng weren't out of their minds, they wouldn't have dared to hide the grain disobediently.
They dare not refuse the edict, but the prince and Da Sima stayed in Fancheng for a long time. Although His Royal Highness the prince arrived in Kecheng first, because Fancheng is the nearest big city to the place where the dragon veins were damaged,
So the prince only stayed in Kecheng for one day and then came to Fancheng.
If they saw Prince Jun Chenyuan, they would have to go to the mountains to find him instead of coming to Fancheng.
So after the people settled in the city, people from the government came to register. Good guy, not many households had food in their hands.
....If he hadn't been having a hard time at home and had an elder brother-in-law who was a government official as his backer, he wouldn't have dared to open this noodle stall.
After the dragon veins were repaired, the prince rushed back to Fancheng to handle the follow-up matters.
I don’t know whether there is a serious error in the information between the upper and lower parties, or there are other reasons that are currently unknown.
He has been running a noodle stall here for more than ten years and has seen many noble people coming and going. He thinks he has some knowledge.
After Lao Wang returned to the stove, Chen Yi looked at Qi Bao'er with a solemn expression and asked in a low voice: "Your Majesty, with the current situation in the city, if the disaster relief food is transported in, will it...????"
Before Lao Wang left, his gaze seemed to pass by the only woman present inadvertently.
You said that as it is now, who would dare to take a walk on the street if there is nothing urgent?!
Lao Wang sighed again, got up, put the stool back in place, and warned: "Fancheng is really uneasy now. The guests look like they are nobles in their dress. Even if they look at each other, the guests still eat."
After the interview, hurry back to where you live, and don’t go out unless there is something urgent.”
As for Da Sima, he was always with the prince.
Chen Er answered: "Before the imperial court allocates disaster relief food, it will definitely order localities to provide porridge first. Fancheng's move is very suspicious."
Qi Baoer appeared here now, firstly, to receive the first batch of disaster relief food shipped from the imperial court; secondly, to find out the real reason why Kezhou still needed disaster relief food even though the people had already evacuated in advance.
clear.
Therefore, it happened that when the government officials notified the people, they gave the people a very short time to evacuate. It was so short that the people could only take some money and pay the day to pack some clothes.
Yes, Qi Bao'er and the others rushed back to Fancheng just to receive relief supplies.
The others were all immersed in eating noodles and showed no reaction. It looked like they didn't pay attention to what Lao Wang said just now, and they seemed like they didn't take it to heart.
But who is the emperor, and how can he not have any doubts about this matter?
Unless Fancheng really can't spare any food for charity.
Then this is harmless...
Because those "disaster victims" were not those who fled after the disaster, but had already evacuated the disaster area before the disaster; they all felt that they should and should bring all their belongings, at least the most important food.
As the noodle stall owner said just now, the government had no intention of giving alms to these victims, and the imperial court had no such intention.
For the next half month, the prince stayed in Fancheng.
What's more, it is still unknown when these victims will return.
Kezhou could only ask the court for help.
Then the problem comes again. Even if the imperial court allocates food from a local area in an emergency, it will not use up all the food stored in a place. It will always leave enough food to save the lives of the local people.
After setting up a soundproof spiritual shield, Qi Baoer said: "I must receive the food, but...
Chen San smiled and thanked her repeatedly, looking like he was being taught.
Many people failed to load the food stored at home. Some people packed the food, but because the government servants were rushing halfway and were afraid of not being able to keep up with the team, they had to throw away the heaviest food.
Jian Bai said that if there were 200,000 people in Fancheng, according to the lowest standard, Fancheng's government would at least have enough food to feed the 200,000 people for a month, regardless of coarse or fine grain;
This is to ensure that if Fancheng is hit by a disaster, self-rescue will ensure that the people of Fancheng will not have food shortages for at least a month, and will also leave one month to ask the court for help.
The above are just the lowest standards. Normally, the grain stored in each city is enough for the local people to survive for at least half a year, depending on the local harvest conditions.
So, where is Fancheng’s food?
As for the fact that the wealthy businessmen in Fancheng did not go to charity, it is understandable. After all, there were too many victims, and they had exceeded the local population.
When the government doesn't offer porridge, if a wealthy businessman dares to give alms, and the government has no choice but to deal with the troublemakers, what's the difference between this and being robbed at your door?!
