Chapter 163
Yin Xiang's mind had returned to clarity, and when he heard Yi Rao's words, he sneered, "Severe punishment for what? This is not a heinous matter. Although it can make Huang Ama angry, it will not remove their official positions. Just now Having said that, the disaster has not reached the point where corpses are lying everywhere and people are exchanging their children for food, so even if I tell the truth, Huang Ama will only reprimand them and will not dismiss her from office."

If this matter was put aside when Kangxi was young, Kangxi would definitely not tolerate it, but now that Kangxi is getting older, although his courage is still there, he is much more lenient towards the officials below him. Officials were allowed to borrow money from the treasury.Can the treasury's money be borrowed and moved at will?The annual disaster relief, building bridges, paving roads, military salaries, officials’ salaries, etc. all come from the national treasury. There is no money in the national treasury. In case something happens, where can I change the money?
In his previous life, in order to recover the money owed to the state treasury, Yinzhen suffered a lot and offended many people.Kangxi's policies in this life are the same as those in the previous life, Yinzhen is still working in the household department, Yinxiang seems to have seen the bitter scene of Yinzhen turning into an iceberg to pursue Ku Yin.

Sighing in his heart, Yin Xiang patted Yi Rao on the back, signaling her not to think too much, and go to bed quickly.He won't tell Yi Luoming about these things, it's enough for him to worry about it.

"Huang Ama, it's too kind to these people." Yiluo sighed, she was not born in the boudoir as a girl who knows everything, and when the water is clear, there will be no fish. Even the best officials will not be perfect, but they hide the disaster like this What's the use of keeping officials who don't care about the life and death of the people?It will only make the people complain that Kangxi doesn't know people clearly.

"Don't think so much, this is not something you should worry about, go to sleep, you will be busy tomorrow." Without answering Yi Rao's words, Yin Xiang only urged her to sleep quickly.

Seeing Yin Xiang perfunctory herself, Yi Rao pouted dissatisfiedly, but didn't say much, turned over, put her butt facing Yin Xiang, and fell asleep dissatisfied.

After getting up the next day, Yinxiang hurried out after breakfast was useless. Yirao only drank a bowl of porridge and ate two small steamed buns, and then took a carriage to the governor's yamen. They were temporarily piled up in the Governor's Yamen, and Yi Rao came over to join the governor's wife, Mrs. Kaifeng Fuyin and other officials' wives and merchants' wives, and then went out of the city together.

When Yi Rao arrived, everyone was already waiting. Seeing her coming, the governor's wife hurriedly greeted her. After paying her respects, she talked about building the porridge shed, "Fujin, the porridge shed has been built, and the porridge is very thick , The chopsticks are inserted without falling over, the steamed buns are mixed with white flour and black flour, steamed one after another, the clothes have been distributed, and two doctors have been invited to sit outside the city."

Yi Rao nodded in satisfaction when she heard the words, and said with a smile, "You have worked hard. After I go back, I will tell Huang Amata in detail."

"What is Fujin talking about? We should do our best to serve the people. We are embarrassed by Fujin's words." The governor's wife was happy, but she said so.

Yi Rao smiled slightly, and said, "Your thoughts are very precious, Huang Amata, you should know." Give more sweetness, these people will do things wholeheartedly, and carry Kangxi out from time to time, which is more useful than saying a basket of words .

As Yi Rao said, she called everyone to follow her to the outside of the city to have a look. They had to see the porridge shed with their own eyes, and saw the suffering of the people. I hope these people would feel compassion and spend more money. some silver.

Yi Rao only brought more than a thousand taels of silver with her when she went out of the palace this time. She brought it because she wanted to buy some special products for Kangxi, the Empress Dowager and others. She donated all the silver yesterday.

It's not that she's stingy, it's that she's really poor. Her dowry silver is only 1 taels. In the past two years, Zhuangzi's shop's income has been spent on gifts during the festivals, so it's not a small amount to bring 1000 taels of silver this time. up.

But no one dared to laugh at her, no one dared to make irresponsible remarks in front of her, no matter how much they paid, it was all out of their hearts.

As soon as she left the city gate of Kaifeng, Yi Rao saw dozens of white sheds. There was a long queue outside the sheds. People held broken bowls in their hands, and all of them were dressed in rags. They stood on tiptoe looking at the steaming sheds.There are many soldiers maintaining order standing around the greenhouse, so although there are many people, they are still in order.

The carriage left the city gate, and the governor's wife stopped Yi Rao from going any further. Yi Rao's status was noble, and she was stunningly beautiful, making people forget their minds. The governor's wife was worried that these victims would bump into Yi Rao, so stop her.Anyway, I saw the porridge shed, and I also saw the victims coming to get the porridge and steamed buns, so there is really no need to go any further.

Seeing this, Yi Rao took out a veiled hat from the carriage and put it on her head. Yinxiang had thought of this last night. Seeing Yi Rao put on the veiled hat, the governor's wife didn't stop her, and Yi Rao So I got out of the carriage and walked to the porridge shed I just entered.

This group of female relatives dressed in silk and satin attracted the attention of the victims as soon as they left the city gate. However, because there were soldiers all over the place, and the victims were concerned about hot porridge and steamed buns, they only took a few glances before turning their attention to the city. On the porridge shed.

Yi Rao walked towards the nearest porridge shed, followed by twenty or thirty female family members, each female family member brought a girl, dressed in red and green, a group of five or sixty people in total.Seeing Yi Rao coming, although I don't know Yi Rao's identity, but the porridge cooking porridge and the fire and the soldiers standing next to him all came to salute, Yi Rao hurriedly looked at the governor's wife, she couldn't speak, so I left these things to the governor's wife Do.

The governor's wife waved her hand when she saw it, indicating that they should go for whatever they want, and don't worry about them.

Yi Rao took a look into the cauldron, and saw that there were only clear soup and water and rice grains, so she nodded in satisfaction, and seeing that the steamed buns beside her were bigger than her palm, she couldn't help feeling a little more satisfied.

Looking up at the porridge receiving team, I saw that although everyone was wearing the distributed clothes, they were still shivering and shivering with the cold when a gust of wind blew.Seeing this scene, Yi Rao frowned, it seemed that there were still not enough clothes and there were too many victims.

Looking around, she found that not far away was a shed with a doctor sitting in charge, and there was a long queue outside, so Yi Rao walked over.There are two white-haired doctors sitting in the shed. These two doctors are checking the patient's pulse. Behind them are two cabinets, which contain commonly used medicinal materials. Keep your feet off the ground.

Instead of paying respects and presents, Yi Rao stayed here for a while, watching the doctor treat his illness.Seeing this, the governor's wife pulled her to let her out. This place is full of sick people. If Yilao gets sick, it will be bad.

Yi Rao shook her head, rejecting the governor's wife's kindness, she is very strong now, so there is no need to worry about these things.Looking up, she saw the thin clothes of the patients lined up, shivering in the cold wind, and some coughing uncontrollably, Yi Rao couldn't help frowning, with a distressed look on her face.

"It's okay, can I invite more doctors? Two, it's too little." Yi Rao turned her head and asked the governor's wife.

The governor's wife hurriedly replied, "I don't know if I don't look at it, but I feel that the two doctors are really too few. I will order someone to invite a few more."

"Thank you, you are a blessing to the common people." Yi Rao never forgot to praise these people.

Seeing this, the governor's wife smiled slightly, turned her head and ordered people to go.

At this time, Mrs. Kaifeng Fu Yin took a step forward and said to Yi Rao, "Fu Jin, it's late autumn and the weather is turning cold, which is the season when illnesses frequently occur. I thought, not only to cure diseases, but also to prevent diseases, how about this? Boil the commonly used herbs to prevent colds and colds into soup, and let the victims come over to get a bowl, which is the best way to cure the disease, and if it can’t be cured, it can also be prevented. I wonder what Fujin thinks?"

Yi Rao's eyes lit up, she couldn't help but nodded and applauded, praised Mrs. Kaifeng Fuyin a few words, and then ordered people to start to do it quickly.

So a medicine shed was set up next to the porridge shed. After the victims heard about it, they came to line up regardless of whether they were sick or not. In ancient times, medical conditions were poor, and a casual cold could kill a person. Now there are free soups and medicines to drink, so everyone hastened Come and get it.

The medicine shed was built after Yi Rao and the group came, and everyone understood what was going on, and kowtowed to Yi Rao to thank her. Beloved, it is really her duty to do something practical for the common people.

After wandering around the porridge place, Yi Rao took people in a carriage to the shelter of the victims.In order to welcome Yinxiang into the city, the local officials in Henan specially drove away the victims in the city and outside the city. Fortunately, these officials still have a conscience and built a temporary shelter for them.

After Yinxiang came, he ordered people to bring these victims back, and did not let them enter the city for unified management, but it was better than being in the wilderness, so now the victims are all living outside the city, Yinxiang ordered people to bring them back to the city. They built a greenhouse, which was covered with thick straw, and they could live on for the time being.

Yi Rao walked around the sheds where the victims lived, and her brows frowned even deeper. These victims were all farmers near Kaifeng City. During the autumn harvest, many people had no crops. They went to beg for their lives, and most of them flocked to Kaifeng City. They carried a bowl with them, and they had no change of clothes, let alone bedding.

Seeing this, Yi Rao decided to ask all the female relatives to pack up some unused bedding after returning to the city. Of course, they also need a lot of old clothes. There are a lot of old clothes to wear.Moreover, these women's families have sewing rooms. Buy some coarse cloth and let the people in the sewing room do it. The workmanship does not need to be meticulous, as long as it can be worn, and hundreds of sets of clothes can be obtained in a few days.

Yi Rao did it when she thought of it, Dang even told everyone her idea, and then went back to the city by car to supervise everything.The coarse bedding didn't cost much money, and a lot of money had been donated yesterday, so everyone had no objections and went home to tidy up.

 Tomorrow is National Day, everyone Happy National Day~~~
