Chapter 205
In Mentong County Government Office, the county magistrate was kneeling on the ground trembling. Although the official uniform was added and Wan Yanlin was already a dead prince in the royal family, but the opponent's sword was sharp enough, the county magistrate could only succumb to the power of force. Down.

The yamen servants are counting the granaries of the county government and are preparing to open them to release grain. The gate of the county government has long been surrounded by the people, and the wealthy households in Mentong County are reluctantly transporting tents to the gate of the county government. Materials, as well as clothes, shoes and socks to keep the victims warm and keep out the cold.

Su Mianyue, who just came back from a walk, saw Yan Lin sitting behind the desk in the yamen hall with a serious fugue, and couldn't help but chuckle.

"The county magistrate is the parent officer here. I'm afraid something will go wrong after kneeling for so long. The Seventh Prince can't stay here for a long time. After all, someone needs to guard one side." Stepping into the county office, he received Han Zezhong's vote. Seeing that disapproving gaze, Su Mianyue asked very calmly, "Mr. Han has something to say?"

"The seventh prince is the direct prince. The old man was ordered by the Supreme Emperor to welcome the seventh prince back to Beijing to proclaim himself emperor. Since Miss Su is the seventh prince's right-hand man, she should know what is acceptable and what should not be done. Mentong County belongs to the imperial court. How can Miss Su use violence to solve the problems of the victims, how can she make officials and gentry submit?" Han Zezhong's voice trembled slightly, and his anger could not be concealed.

Glancing at Han Zezhong, Su Mianyue walked to the county magistrate, leaned slightly and asked, "Master county magistrate, do you feel dissatisfied with this girl's behavior?"

"Don't dare." The county magistrate hurriedly shook his head, with those black and blue eyes, it was very funny.

"Don't dare or won't?" Su Mianyue asked again with a good temper.

"Don't dare...of course I won't." The county magistrate replied in a polite manner, as if he was afraid that Su Mianyue would not believe it, and hurriedly cupped his hands and said, "It's because the lower officials are stupid. As a parental official, the lives of the people are of course the most important thing." , You shouldn’t wait for the edict from above and dare not open the granary to release grain, even if you want the head of the subordinate, the subordinate will not be so stupid again.”

Because the speed of speaking was too fast, involving the injury at the corner of the mouth, the county winked in pain, but dared not even cry out for pain, which showed that he was terrified of being beaten.

"How can you be loyal and courageous under the power of lust?" Han Zezhong said angrily.

"Mr. Han's words are wrong." No longer teasing the cowardly magistrate, Su Mianyue turned around and sat down, and said slowly: "My girl has always been a law-abiding person, but she also believes in the principle of special affairs. To be reasonable, this girl is absolutely too lazy to use her fists, but for those ignorant and ignorant people, why waste her words when she can solve them with her fists? Mr. Han thought that the foundation of a country is the thousands of people, or one or two officials, or dozens of people. A squire?"

Han Zezhong couldn't answer the question. He knew that the people were the foundation of the country, but if there were no officials to govern, the people would become villains.

Without businessmen, the country will not be able to prosper, how can we talk about stability and stability?
Glancing at Han Zezhong with a sneer, Su Mianyue sneered and said, "Mr. Han is free to talk about the rules here, why don't you go out and see what the people are doing outside, the county magistrate may as well go out and see together, so you can know how to deal with it in the future." Be an official, otherwise you will be just a county magistrate at the end of your life."

After finishing speaking, Su Mianyue got up and walked away, not bothering to pay attention to Han Zezhong who had a sour smell all over her body.

"Look, Seventh Prince, how can a woman of such character be by His Highness's side?" Han Zezhong slipped out of words out of anger, turned around and saw Wan Yanlin's face covered with frost, and immediately changed the topic: "The magistrate went out with the old man to see Look at it, I really want to know what the common people are doing."

The county magistrate secretly took a look at Wan Yanlin, seeing that he had no objection, he hurriedly followed behind Han Zezhong with his sore kneeling legs, he was afraid that the black gauze hat on his head would be lost.

When the two of them arrived at the gate of the county government, all kinds of noisy voices from the common people filled their ears.

"My poor son, if you don't give up that morsel to your mother, you won't have to worry about living now. The Seventh Prince is so kind and virtuous that he gave us something to eat, woo woo woo..."

"I said that the imperial court will not ignore us. The Seventh Prince is benevolent. Today he ate the porridge from the yamen. Even if he dies in the future, he must be loyal to the Seventh Prince and the imperial court. Otherwise, I will fight him with my old bones."

"Grandpa, I'm hungry. Will I be able to eat porridge with rice grains in the future? Grandpa said that the county magistrate is the parent officer. Will he be like Gouwazi's parents and prevent Gouwazi from starving to death?"

……

The common people are talking one by one, as if they are talking differently, but the general meaning is to thank Wan Yanlin, thank the court, and even the county magistrate who has been scolded for almost three years is also grateful .

Han Zezhong was a little surprised. He didn't seem to have heard such words of thanks when he rescued the victims in the past. At least the victims would keep their strength until they were sure they had a way out, instead of...

Looking at the ashamed county magistrate from the corner of the eye, Han Zezhong suddenly understood the key point. This must be due to the woman who subdued the county magistrate with violence, otherwise the common people would not know the identity of the seventh prince.

In the backyard of the county government office, Su Mianyue was sitting in her room drinking tea and having snacks, when she saw Wan Lin enter her room gracefully, she poured a cup of tea and pushed it to the opposite side, and said in a low voice: "The county government office There is not much food, and according to the number of victims in Mentong County, even if there are only two meals of porridge a day, it can last up to a month."

Wan Yanlin seemed to have known this for a long time. He took a sip of tea calmly and ate another piece of pastry before he said, "Hengyuan Kingdom suffered from three consecutive years of extensive drought. Having these grains in stock is enough to show that the county magistrate is pretty good."

"What are you going to do?" Su Mianyue asked calmly, believing that Wan Yanlin still had a backup.

"Xiao Yueyue exposed my identity, so I have no choice but to bite the bullet and get on with it. First, I will allocate some of the military funds to support the army, and ensure that these people can wait until next year's autumn harvest. If God continues to keep his eyes open, even if I No matter how much you want to save these people, you still have more than enough energy.” Slightly frowning, Wan Yanlin put down half of the pastry in his hand, looked at Su Mianyue and said, “It’s just the current situation, the disaster-stricken people There are too many areas, and there are at least a million victims, but the food and grass in my hand cannot save everyone, if it is Xiaoyueyue, how should I deal with this matter?"

She lowered her eyes and pondered for a moment, and Su Mianyue also lost her appetite for food. The problem of food and grass is really a top priority. If the food and clothing problems of the people cannot be solved, the rebel army will rise from time to time. And riddled with holes.

Su Mianyue had never encountered such a thing, and she had never carefully studied how the ancients dealt with this situation in the history she had learned before, so she had to rack her brains at this moment.

Seeing Su Mianyue thinking seriously, the corners of Wanyanlin's lips curled up slightly. Since he had planned for so long, he already had a solution. He just didn't want to reveal too much, and wanted to see what Su Mianyue could do for him. how much he does.

After a cup of tea, Su Mianyue raised her eyes, looked at Wan Yanlin with complicated eyes, and said calmly, "The situation of the victims is urgent. Since Wanyan Zhen abandoned these disaster areas and Wanyan Lei withdrew from the disaster areas, you Do you plan to call yourself king in this generation and create another small court?"

"Rule in separate courts?" Wan Yanlin raised his eyebrows.

Su Mianyue nodded, and said: "For Wanyan Zhen or Wanyan Lei, the disaster area is undoubtedly a tasteless, even a heavy burden. But for you, it is the most solid foundation. For food and grass, I will I believe you have already made preparations, and if there is something missing, I will try my best to mediate for you."

"The one who knows me is Xiao Yueyue." Wan Yanlin laughed loudly, and did not directly answer Su Mianyue's words, but his eyes were shining brightly. The woman Wan Yanlin was looking for was indeed not an embroidered pillow. Even his two imperial brothers are even worse.
