Stop acting, Your Majesty, the queen knows you're faking it

Chapter 494 Is the Water Bandit

"She was widowed at an early age and had no children...

"At the moment, it seems that I can only come to live with my former sister for a while."

Speaking of these, Yin Ping couldn't help feeling a little sad.

She had a sad face, but she still did not forget to pay attention to her cousin: "Sister Ah Qi, natural disasters cannot be avoided, since it has already happened, no matter how much you miss the sad things in the past, it will not help.

"Just live in the General's Mansion and treat it as your own home. When everything outside is calm again, you can think about going home."

"Yes, Aunt Chu should settle down in the General's Mansion first." Second Miss Chi also comforted her.

During that time just now, this Aunt Chu got along very well with everyone in the Chi residence.

She liked this aunt very much, and naturally expected her to stay.

Not only her, but Miss Chi San also said the same: "Actually, if there is no one else in Aunt Chu's family, it is not a bad idea to live in the capital. You are A Niang's best playmate when she was young. If you can live here, A Niang Definitely happy.

"Besides, you can have a companion in the future."

Every word you say to me is a word of comfort.

After hearing this, Chu Qi felt much better: "A Ping, thank you very much... If it weren't for you, I really don't know how to live this day."

"It's okay, let's support each other in the future, and it will get better..."

When everyone comforted Chu Qi, most of their attention was on her.

When Yan Chujing heard that she had fled from Pingxing, he immediately thought of asking her about Pingxing's situation.

When she had almost calmed down, he thought about it and asked, "I just heard that Aunt Chu is from Pingxing? Your family suffered a disaster. I shouldn't have asked, but the situation in Pingxing is very important to me.

"I don't know...Can Aunt Chu tell me some specific information?

"In this way, it should be helpful for future disaster relief arrangements."

"Of course." Hearing that the emperor was concerned about the disaster situation in her hometown, Chu Qi naturally wouldn't shirk it, and she straightened up her thoughts, telling Yu Yan Chujing everything she knew: "Actually, the flood didn't come so quickly. Not suddenly.

"The area in the south of the Yangtze River is very rainy and often suffers from floods, so the local people are somewhat aware of floods.

"Before the rainy season, everyone prepared to strengthen the river embankment to prevent the river embankment from being washed away and damage the crops when the heavy rain continued.

"By the edge of my hometown, Qi County, there is also a big river, which is a branch of the Minjiang River. Whenever the rainy season comes, this river will rise due to the water level of the Minjiang River, and the water flow will intensify, and there is a possibility of bursting its embankment.

"So our county magistrate went to the Xinzhou capital early in the morning, hoping that the magistrate of the state can allocate funds so that we can use it to strengthen the river embankment."

"However, your hometown, Qixian County, was still hit by floods. Not only the fertile land was destroyed, but also the houses and people were damaged... I think it is because the repair and reinforcement of the embankment has not been implemented? Is it because the state government has not allocated funds?"

"No, Zhizhou is not in trouble." Chu Qi shook his head, denying Yan Chujing's guess.

After concentrating her eyebrows for a moment, she said in a serious tone: "It was the water bandits.

"Our Lord Zhizhou, although he can't be called a good official with a long history, he can be regarded as conscientious. As soon as the county magistrate's documents are gone, he will share a share of the money with us in Qi County according to the proportion of previous years, compared with the imperial court's appropriation. .

"But on the way to our Qi County, the sum of money encountered water bandits and was robbed by water bandits!"
