Chapter 147. Fireball from the Sky
Chen Xiaoyu didn't expect her luck to be so good, and she wanted to catch Wu Zhizhou's handle, but such a big handle was automatically given to her door.

However, this handle was too big, and it made Chen Xiaoyu a little terrified.

what can we do about it?

poked out?If the people of Pingjiang Mansion knew that there was no grain in the official warehouses of Pingjiang Mansion, their hearts would be fluctuated, and the price of grain on the market might be several times more expensive.

Don't poke it out?

The common people are willing to endure the high grain prices at the moment, why are they all waiting for the government to open grain warehouses?
The Xuanyuan Dynasty has been established for thousands of years, and the process has always been like this: in good years, the government will vigorously purchase the extra grain on the market, so as not to hurt farmers due to cheap grain.When it comes to a disaster year, when the government sees that the price of grain on the market has risen sharply, it will release some grain from the official warehouse to curb the price of grain so that the people will not be able to afford the grain.

At critical moments, the government will open warehouses to distribute relief food.

It is precisely because of the "benevolent government" of the Xuanyuan Dynasty that the Xuanyuan family can sit safely on the throne and rule this land for thousands of years.

The people also really love Xuanyuan.

Even though the Northern Wei Dynasty had stared at the Xuanyuan Dynasty in recent years, they had not been able to step into the gate of heaven.

But now, the food in the official warehouse of Pingjiang Mansion has been embezzled by the "big rat" Wu Zhizhou.

Wu Zhizhou was careless about replenishing the food in the official warehouse. You know, this year is a famine year!The grain tax that Pingjiang Mansion can collect is very little.

It must be a catastrophe when the higher-ups ask Wu Zhizhou to open the warehouse to release the grain.

Relief food is the government's last line of defense for the people. If the people have no relief food to receive, they will starve to death.

Chen Xiaoyu looked it up in the original body's memory.

In her previous life, the Pingjiang Mansion was starved to death because of this disaster.

So many people starved to death, but why was this Wu Zhizhou not held accountable by Emperor Tianjing, but promoted all the way?
This... is unreasonable no matter how you think about it!

Chen Xiaoyu searched and searched, and finally found a strange thing from the original body's memory.

On the day of the winter solstice this year, a fireball fell from the sky and set the official warehouse of Pingjiang mansion on fire.

There happened to be a strong wind that day, and the wind took advantage of the fire, and in less than half a day, all the granaries that stretched for ten miles were burned to ashes.

The people of Pingjiang Mansion looked at the official warehouse that had been turned into scorched earth, and they all cried out.

Just the day before, the Zhizhou Yamen issued a notice and posted it everywhere, saying that after receiving the emperor's decree, starting from the day after tomorrow, the counties began to distribute relief food.Relief food is distributed according to the head of the person, and each person is given half a bucket of food for half a day.

When the news came out, the common people burst into cheers, and all of them automatically knelt down towards the capital, thanking Emperor Tianjing for loving the people like a son.

When the relief food was about to be distributed, the official warehouse with the most food reserves in Pingjiang Mansion was burned by a big fireball that fell from the sky.Is it because God doesn't give them a way out for the people of Pingjiang Mansion?

After the official warehouses in Pingjiang Mansion were burned, there was not much food in the official warehouses owned by the counties. Therefore, the amount of relief food distributed directly shrank significantly.

On the day of receiving relief food, each person only received half a catty of food.

Moreover, the follow-up relief food has not been seen.

In this way, the people of Pingjiang Mansion waited and waited and hoped. After waiting for more than a month, they did not expect the news of the government redistributing relief food.

After more than two months, the government transferred food from the south before redistributing relief food.

But at that time, more than half of the people in Pingjiang Mansion had starved to death.

Because of this matter, Emperor Tianjing also issued an imperial edict of guilt.A big fireball fell from the sky and burned the granary. No matter how you look at it, the sky is dissatisfied with him, the "son of heaven"!

Emperor Tianjing couldn't get sick after he issued the Edict of Guilt, and passed away after two or three years.

Combining what he heard today, Chen Xiaoyu thought about it, and felt that so many people in Pingjiang Mansion starved to death in his previous life, it was not about Emperor Tianjing at all, but Wu Zhizhou's fault.

There was no grain in Wu Zhizhou's official warehouse. In order to respond to the imperial decree of "opening the warehouse to release grain", Wu Zhizhou did not know what method he used, so that a big fireball fell from the sky and burned the official warehouse.

After the official warehouse was burned to scorched earth, who would have thought that there was no food in the official warehouse?

In his previous life, Wu Zhizhou relied on the "big fireball from the sky" to overcome the difficulties and climbed straight to the sky.

Who will pay for the lives of so many people in Pingjiang Mansion?

The more Chen Xiaoyu thought about it, the angrier she became.

In order to verify whether her guess was correct, Chen Xiaoyu released her spiritual consciousness and extended it to Ping'an Town.

The official warehouse was built near Ping'an Town, stretching for more than ten miles, and looked magnificent.

Chen Xiaoyu's consciousness went around in the official warehouse and then took it back.

Chen Xiaoyu really wanted to curse.

This son of a bitch, Wu Zhizhou, is really not human.

In the official warehouse, there are only two warehouses where grain is piled up, and the other more than 20 warehouses are all empty.

Chen Xiaoyu sat on the bed and thought about it for a while, and finally made a decision.

Now that Chen Xiaoyu knew about this, he definitely couldn't just watch the common people repeat the old ways of their previous life.

It is only July now, and there are still more than four months before the relief food distribution in the previous life.

During these four months, if the imperial court could go to the south to adjust grain and come to Pingjiang Mansion in advance, the people of Pingjiang Mansion would definitely not starve to death.

After Chen Xiaoyu made up her mind, she went to the desk and wrote a letter.Fortunately, Chen Xiaoyu's eyes can see at night, otherwise, Chen Xiaoyu was really afraid that after lighting the lamp, she would wake up her mother Jin Cuicui.

The letter was written to Prince Rui's son Xuanyuan Muye.

Chen Xiaoyu told Xuanyuan Muye in the tone of a "sister fairy" that when she passed by Pingjiang Mansion, she found that there was no food in the official warehouse of Pingjiang Mansion.But now, Pingjiang Mansion has encountered a severe drought, and this season's harvest is almost nonexistent.

If the imperial court does not respond as soon as possible, the people of Pingjiang Mansion will face the threat of starvation to death.

In the letter, Chen Xiaoyu asked Xuanyuan Muye to tell Emperor Tianjing about the lack of food in the official warehouse of Pingjiang Mansion.Otherwise, the Xuanyuan Dynasty would be seriously injured.

Because Xiaozhan devoured Xiaoyu Pendant, Chen Xiaoyu actually didn't really want to contact Xuanyuan Muye.Every time she thinks of Xuanyuan Muye, Chen Xiaoyu always has an inexplicable sense of guilt.

However, who told Chen Xiaoyu to only know such a powerful person as Xuanyuan Muye?Apart from Xuanyuan Muye, Chen Xiaoyu has no one to trust.

After Chen Xiaoyu finished writing the letter, she sneaked out again.

When she used her spiritual sense to investigate the official warehouse just now, Chen Xiaoyu also found the post by the way.

In the post station, there are postmen who specialize in delivering letters.Every day, the postmen will distribute the letters so that the passing officials can send them to all parts of the country by the way.

Chen Xiaoyu sneaked into the post station quietly, and stuffed her letter into a large stack of letters sent to the capital.Early tomorrow morning, this pile of letters will be taken to the capital.

After finishing these things, Chen Xiaoyu was in a happy mood.
