Chapter 532 Chapter 531 Pingbei County Earthquake

Chapter 532 Chapter 531

Although Zheng Haoran was wearing a military uniform, he smiled kindly, and he was serving porridge to the victims here. The porridge was not so thin that only rice grains could be seen, so the victims were not very afraid of him.

The old man fell behind, and a middle-aged man behind the old man also said: "Master, most of us are from Songxiang Town. The earthquake has spread widely, and Pingbei County has also been affected. At first we were Fleeing to Pingbei County, where many houses have collapsed, the city is in chaos, and the government has no time to control us, so we can only go to Pingcheng."

The county doesn't care about them, they can only come to Fucheng.

When they first arrived and saw the outside of Pingcheng and saw the city gates closed, everyone was almost desperate.

Fortunately, the imperial court did not really give up on these poor people, and Pingcheng still opened the gates to give them a way out.

After the earthquake, the county town didn't care, and when the gates of Pingcheng were closed, Pingcheng opened the gates to give out porridge; all the ups and downs, every one of the victims held their bowls with tears in their eyes.

Zheng Haoran's face changed drastically, he turned around and ran towards the city.

What the hell, there was a riot in Pingcheng just now, why did Pingbei County have another earthquake?
In the government office, the study room.

"The princess, the princess is not good."

Qi Baoer flipped through the ledger without looking up, "I'm fine with him."

Zheng Haoran: "No, no, princess, do you know where all the victims outside the city came from? They all came from Pingbei County. There was a major earthquake in Pingbei County six days ago, and several towns were affected. , the most serious one is Songxiang Town, the ground of the whole town was torn apart, and there were heavy casualties.”

Qi Baoer jumped up from the chair, "What did you say?"

"A big earthquake, a big earthquake happened in Pingbei County."

Qi Baoer suddenly threw herself on the table and began to rummage through it.

Zheng Haoran was taken aback, "Princess, what is this...?"

Was the news of the earthquake not shocking enough, or was there something wrong with his way of expressing it? Why did the princess react like this?

"Help me find it quickly. The earthquake in Pingbei County will definitely ask Pingcheng for help. The earthquake in Pingbei County happened six days ago, and Pingcheng was destroyed by violent people five days ago. One day is enough for Pingbei County to quickly The horse arrived at Pingcheng.

However, Mucheng did not receive the memorial about the earthquake from Pingcheng, and the memorial must still be here. "

Zheng Haoran: Yes.

Busy also pounced on the table and rummaged through it.

After a while, Qi Baoer found a memorial to the imperial court for help from Pingbei County, which was sent by Pingcheng from a pile of documents.

After reading it, Qi Baoer pursed her lips and handed the memorial to Zheng Haoran, Zheng Haoran took it and fell silent.

The cover of the memorial has been stamped with Screen City's urgent seal.

What does this mean?
It shows that Prefect Sha originally planned to send this memorial to Mucheng urgently, but because the people broke the city, this memorial could not be sent out.

and many more,

"Princess, it seems that this memorial was pressed under other documents just now?"

He looked at it seriously, the princess found this memorial from the bottom after flattening a pile of documents on the table.

Qi Bao'er tapped the table with her fingertips with a heavy expression, "Prefect Sha has already stamped the expedited seal, it is unlikely that Prefect Sha hid this memorial, and if he really does not want this memorial to be discovered, he will not Wouldn't it be easier to destroy it just by pressing it down?"

Zheng Haoran: "Princess, could it be that Sha Zhifu just temporarily withheld the memorial?"

"This is even more impossible. With such a major earthquake happening in a local area, it is not only meaningless for an official to withhold the memorial, but it is also harmful. Unless someone wants to use the earthquake to do something without letting the court know, otherwise it will The sooner you inform the court about such things, the better, and the responsibility is not something a magistrate can afford."

People at this time were superstitious. In the eyes of the common people, the earthquake was not just a natural disaster, but a punishment from God.

Just imagine, there is waterlogging and heavy rain in the south, and now there is a natural earthquake; what will the common people think?
Is it very likely that all this will be blamed on the emperor, for example, the emperor is not benevolent, and this is the punishment from heaven?
It's not that this kind of thing has never happened before. The Jun family was able to snatch the country from the dynasty smoothly because the emperor of the previous dynasty was benevolent, and natural and man-made disasters continued, causing the people to live in poverty.

Therefore, natural disasters and earthquakes, at least in Qilin Kingdom, officials from all over the country dare not conceal or report such things.

"That is, someone moved the memorial?"

After saying that, Zheng Haoran was puzzled, "But what's the point of doing this?"

If you want to hide it, hide it deeper. What does this mean?
Qi Baoer shook her head, how would she know?

But that's not important right now.

"Immediately send scouts with my token to Pingbei County to find out the real situation of the earthquake, and inform the county magistrate of Pingbei County to appease the people first, and do your best to treat and settle the victims. As for the relief money, it will be here soon." Will call him over.

Then send people to Pingnan and Pingxi and other counties to check whether they have been affected, whether the impact is serious or not.

For places that were not affected by the earthquake, let them draw out all the yamen servants and local credible forces, such as bodyguards and guards, to rush to Pingcheng as quickly as possible while ensuring the safety of the local area first. "

Zheng Haoran understood the meaning of Qi Baoer as soon as he heard it, but he was worried: "Princess, when the scouts go to inform, do you want to tell the truth about Pingcheng?"

Will the destruction of the Fucheng make the officials at the bottom think about things they shouldn't have?
Qi Bao'er heard what he meant, but this is not the time to be concerned about this, first stabilize Pingcheng, and as for someone's thinking about this, Prefect Sha is still alive.

"Tell me, I can't hide this matter."

"……Yes."

After Zheng Haoran took the order to leave, Cheng Si hurried in again.

"Princess, the result of the interrogation has come out."

"Say."

"Yes, the bandits have already confessed. They were originally members of the White Ghost Sect. Later, the White Ghost Sect drove them out of the White Ghost Sect for some reason. Those people were originally bandits. After being driven out, they returned to their original places and continued to work. There were bandits.

This time when they attacked Pingcheng, someone sent them a letter saying that the disaster relief money from the imperial court had arrived in Pingcheng, and the amount was considerable. "

The disaster relief of the Qilin Kingdom, the word disaster relief only represents a generalization. The money and food that come down are not only for a temporary disaster relief; there are also follow-up funds for post-disaster reconstruction and resettlement of the people.

Of course, the imperial court has clear regulations on where the pen and silver should be used.

Therefore, the amount of each disaster relief fund is extremely large.

Like theirs this time, the silver is a full 2000 million taels, of which 500 million taels are cash and the other 500 million taels are bank notes.As for the food, in addition to the food used for almsgiving and distribution to the victims of disasters, there are also various types of food.

It is not impossible for the bandits to become malicious when they heard that the relief money had arrived in Pingcheng.

But, who is the person who sent the message to the bandits?

"Princess, something is wrong with the White Ghost Cult. How could they drive those bandits out?"

The White Ghost Sect was originally an uprising army assembled by the disaster victims and bandits. Naturally, the number increased. How could the disaster victims not chase after the bandits whose combat effectiveness was far stronger than the disaster victims?
This is not reasonable.
