Chapter 3215: Encounter on a narrow road (additional update)
They also found a fire and sat around it. Someone brought meat porridge. Zhou Man took a bowl and ate it slowly, "I didn't put any ginger. You should have brought some ginger."
Bai Erlang: "It's good to eat some. You still have to choose."
Zhou Man turned to Tang He and asked, "How is the investigation going?"
Tang He went up the mountain at noon today, and she knew as soon as she saw it that he went to check out the situation on the mountain.
Tang He said: "It was indeed a natural disaster. The earthquake caused some of the mountains to collapse and the rocks and soil to loosen. In addition to the continuous rainfall, the water on the mountain gathered in a corner of the mountain that collapsed due to the earthquake, so a flash flood occurred. The trees along the way were destroyed.
It can be blocked."
Governor Guo first went to express condolences in other places, and when he finally met Zhou Man and others, it was already the seventh day after the disaster occurred.
Many injured patients were transported back to the county hospital for continued treatment, while others were placed nearby. Zhou Man and other doctors would visit them every day and prescribe medicine...
Governor Guo came with people and supplies, accompanied by County Magistrate Sun, and arranged for people to build houses for the victims. Some villages had to be relocated because the damage was too serious.
Guo Jishi saw dressing in the shed for the injured patient who came for consultation. He happily raised his hand to say hello. Then he accidentally saw a person next to him who was supporting the patient. The man looked familiar. Guo Jishi's face
Shang's smile suddenly froze.
The master was puzzled, "Sir, what's wrong?"
Governor Guo put down his hand, with a smile still on his face, but it dropped a lot, "It's nothing, I saw an acquaintance."
Guo Ci came forward to say hello, "Master Zhou."
Zhou Man raised his head and took care of the patient before standing up, "Here comes Governor Guo, please take a seat."
"Mr. Zhou, you are so polite. Thanks to the quick action of the Medical Department, so many people were saved this time."
Zhou Man said with a smile: "This is what we should do. Treating patients injured and sick due to natural disasters is one of the responsibilities of the Medical Department."
Governor Guo smiled and exchanged greetings with her, and then looked in the direction where his acquaintance had left, "Mr. Zhou, I seemed to have seen the right minister of the Ministry of Punishment just now. I wonder if it's because I haven't slept enough in the past two days and my eyesight has been dazzled."
Zhou Man: "You are not dazzled. It is indeed Mr. Tang. He should be in the medical shed. I am short of manpower here, so he is here to help take care of the patients."
As soon as Tang He, who was helping the patient back, came out, he saw a man from Bu Gong's family standing in the medical shed not far away. He couldn't help but raise his eyebrows and stepped forward.
As soon as Governor Guo turned his head, he met Tang He's gaze. Governor Guo raised his smile and said, "My nephew, it's really you, distinguished guest, honored guest!"
Tang He also raised a smile and said, "Master Guo, don't be surprised if Tang comes here uninvited."
He smiled and said: "I sensed an earthquake here when I was staying at Mount Tai, so I came to take a look."
Can Governor Guo not welcome him?
That's definitely not possible. Tang He was the censor of the imperial censor, and after receiving the imperial decree, he patrolled around the country and determined unjust cases in the world. He could go anywhere in the world.
Governor Guo was actually mentally prepared. Qingzhou had developed too rapidly in recent years. He felt that Tang He would come one day, but he didn't think he would come so early.
In addition, after he got the news, he would call back to the capital soon. Whether he came or not would not have much impact on him. Who knew that it was such a coincidence that he came when he was least prepared and in the most embarrassed state.
Governor Guo's face froze with laughter.
Bai Erlang went to preside over the distribution of supplies and did not come back until evening. When he came back, he saw Governor Guo leading Tang He around to express condolences to the people affected by the disaster. The two parties met on the road, and Governor Guo almost excitedly took Bai Erlang's hand.
, said with enthusiasm: "White Consort, you and the princess are extremely kind and virtuous. I, on behalf of all the people in Changshou County, would like to thank the consort and the princess..."
Bai Erlang was so frightened that he quickly grabbed him and said, "It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter, this is what we should do."
After saying this, I felt that these words were not appropriate enough, so I added: "As a member of the royal family, the princess should love and cherish the people. Governor Guo does not need to be so polite."
Governor Guo said: "I have wronged my consort these days. How about we rush back to the county town in a while, and I will host a banquet in honor of our consort, and also clean up the dust for Mr. Tang?"
Bai Erlang refused: "It doesn't have to be like this. The disaster is not over yet, so it's not appropriate to have a banquet. Besides, rather than eating, I want to have a good sleep now."
Tang He also refused and said with a smile: "I came here this time, firstly, to take a look at the disaster situation, secondly, to inquire about the case files of various county offices in Qingzhou, and thirdly, to take a look at Longchi Pier, so I'm not in a hurry to go.
Changshou County County Government."
Just as Governor Guo was about to express his regrets and say goodbye, he heard Zhou Man say from behind: "It's already this hour, do you still want to go back, Master Guo?"
Governor Guo sighed: "There are still many things to do tomorrow. We really don't have time to stay. We will go back overnight to save some time. Mr. Zhou, I leave it to you. All the materials we brought will be left to you."
You, please make arrangements on your behalf."
Zhou Man was surprised, "Do you want to evacuate all the people from the county government?"
"No, no, no, they are staying to help Mr. Zhou," Governor Guo was afraid that Zhou Man would misunderstand, so he explained: "Didn't Mr. Zhou say that there are not enough manpower? They are still staying. If it is not enough, I will call you here again.
Several people?"
Zhou Man did not refuse anyone who came, and nodded and said: "Okay, just call it. By the way, it's best if you can read and keep accounts."
Governor Guo agreed and was about to say goodbye and leave.
Zhou Man looked up at the sky and said, "But, will it rain tonight?"
Governor Guo also took a look at the sky and saw a ray of sunset on the horizon, so he felt that the problem was not big, so he smiled and said that even wind and rain could not stop him from caring for the victims of the disaster.
Zhou Man could only watch him leave with a look of admiration.
After the group of them walked away, she took back the admiration on her face and said, "I'm serious, it should rain tonight."
Tang He also looked up at the clouds and nodded after a while, "It may rain."
"It's so pitiful. Even though it's June, it's very uncomfortable to be exposed to the rain, especially at night." Zhou Man turned to look at Tang He, "Why do I feel that he seems a little afraid of you, Senior Brother Tang?"
Bai Erlang's eyes suddenly widened and he began to speculate, "Did he commit some crimes in private? For example, he took money to release a death row prisoner, and wrongly accused other innocent people..."
Tang He slapped him hard on the shoulder, "Don't talk nonsense without evidence."
He said: "It should be because he doesn't have a good relationship with my father, so he doesn't like me, and he is afraid that I will cause trouble for him in Qingzhou, so he seems a little worried."
Zhou Man: "That's not the case. He is a governor after all. Senior brother, you are not someone who deliberately seeks trouble. Take a step back. Even if you do, there is no need for him to be afraid of you."
She said: "If you are upright, you are not afraid of slanted shadows!"
Tang He said with a smile: "He will never be upright in this life, but he is afraid of me, not because his shadow is slanted, but because it is related to his official career, and he is afraid that I will say nonsense in the notes to the court.
"
Zhou Man and Bai Erlang looked puzzled, "Huh?"
"Why, haven't you received the news?" Tang He said: "The imperial court intends to transfer the governor Guo back to the capital. At that time, a new governor will be appointed to Qingzhou."
