Several people got out of the carriage, Luo Hanzhuo stayed and lived in the General's Mansion for the time being, and Ying Binxiao was very satisfied when the news reached Ying Binxiao's ears.

The next day, Ying Chen, as the main person in charge of disaster relief, pretended to be a wealthy son who didn't know the sufferings of the world, and brought Yan Zheng, Luo Hanzhuo, and the loyal guard Xia Hong to the street.

Just when I was about to leave the city gate, when I arrived at the city gate, I found that the front seemed to be very noisy. When I walked in, I saw how many disaster victims were dressed in rags.He was stopped outside the city by the guards, and suddenly he became dissatisfied and made a fuss.

Before they walked in, they heard them arguing about something. The team leader guarding the city yelled at the refugees fiercely.

"Let us in! Why do you stop us!" One person glared at the captain of the guarding squad with a face full of resentment. It seemed that they were all leaders.

Sure enough, as soon as the man finished speaking, the refugees who followed behind him began to roar, with the courage to stop until they achieved their goal.

Looking at these people, Ying Chen couldn't help frowning, seeing that these people should be the residents of the area where the epidemic was implicated, but... didn't expect it to come so fast and so fiercely.

The government's disaster relief funds and relief food should have already been distributed, so how could this phenomenon happen.

Luo Hanzhuo waved his fan and watched the disturbance ahead calmly, and said leisurely: "Our emperor only knows how to allocate money, but he doesn't think about how many people there are and how much needs to be allocated. The last thousand 800 taels will do.”

Or is it incompetent?Incompetence is not a problem, but incompetence and arrogance are not a material that can secure the throne.

Hearing what he said, Ying Chen became interested, glanced at him, and raised his chin slightly.

"How to say?" He was really a little curious.

Luo Hanzhuo showed a touch of sarcasm: "Master, you don't know. I just got the news not long ago. After the imperial court, Ying Binxiao specially reserved the people from the household department to discuss the consumption of disaster relief."

He closed his fan and shook his head ironically.

"The Minister of the Household Department proposed to allocate tens of millions of taels of silver, set up porridge sheds outside the city for relief, and at the same time send the guards of the imperial hospital to diagnose and judge, and allocate thousands of medicinal materials for disaster relief. Guess what, our emperor rejected them all. .”

"The payment was reduced to one million, and the porridge shed suggested that it be rejected. Even the imperial physician regarded the head of the hospital as the emperor's heavy responsibility for treating diseases, and only sent two newcomers to go through the motions, let alone any medicinal materials. The million taels would cost another For disaster relief, porridge relief, medicinal materials purchase, and the exploitation of officials at various levels, what is left when it is really used for practical purposes.”

Yan Zheng listened to the discussion between the two of them without saying a word at first, and as Luo Hanzhuo described, the anger in his eyes intensified, and after listening to his narration, he even sneered, his mouth full of contempt.

"Is this the emperor? The first thing I think of is myself. What are the people? I'm afraid they are not as good as dogs in his eyes." Yan Zheng's dislike for Bin Xiao has reached the extreme at this moment, he never knew that he would one day Hate such a person so much.

Ying Chen didn't refute Yan Zheng's blurted words. Emperors, they have always been like this, but they are not as blatant as Ying Binxiao. They are more concerned about their own reputation, and what's more...they want to be Mingjun, so they won't be upright Some people use untenable reasons to do things that make them lose the hearts of the people.

Along the way, from the beginning to the present, Ying Chen has seen too many worlds and too many people, including princes and generals, knights and beggars, Ying Binxiao is not ordinary among the people he has met but Nothing special either.So he didn't feel much about Yan Zheng's anger, but the bottom line he kept in his heart made him not agree with Bin Xiao's behavior.

They were still sighing, but the opposing sides seemed to be about to fight.Seeing that the conflict between the two parties became more and more intense, the captain of the guard team turned pale, waved at the guard team members behind him, and took the lead in slashing at the unarmed refugees who were just paper tigers.

Ying Chen's eyes were quick and his hands were quick. When the opponent's blade was about to fall on the flesh and blood, the strength in his hand condensed and merged into a small transparent ball, bringing some fluctuations in the air to hit the blade.

The captain of the guard only felt that the blade in his hand was hit by something, and the knife in his hand left his side and fell to the ground.

The refugees were taken aback by this turn of events, but fortunately Ying Chen's move slowed them down, picking up the knife that fell on the ground to fight back.The battle between the two sides gradually became fierce. Although the refugees did not have any weapons, they were strong in numbers, and they would use local materials. They even looked for the nearest handy guy to fight with the guards.

For a moment, neither of the two sides had the upper hand, Luo Hanzhuo couldn't help but sigh, lamenting that people's potential is indeed infinite, and when they are emotional, they can really do anything.

This has to be put in the past, who would have thought that they would dare to fight with the guards one day.

Leaving aside the situation of the two sides for the time being, after confirming that the two sides would not be able to tell the winner for a while, Ying Chen took them out of the city while they were not paying attention.Although I watched such a big show early in the morning, I still have to do the things that should be done.

Ying Binxiao gave Ying Chen the position of Minister of Disaster Relief, but he had no authority, and even posted a notice to inform subordinate officials that he had no authority.It can be said that none of the officials below knew of such an existence.

Fortunately, Ying Chen didn't intend to be a minister of disaster relief, Ying Binxiao just wanted to find an excuse to let him stay in the epidemic area so that something satisfying could happen to him.

It just so happened that Ying Chen just wanted to find a reason to approach the situation openly and honestly, and it would be best to win over the people's hearts by the way.Everyone takes what they need.

But even though he doesn't need anything to be able to exercise his authority, if there is any eventuality, it would not be wonderful, but it's not a big problem. He still has Luo Hanzhuo by his side, and Prime Minister Luo's power is much easier to use than a disaster relief minister. up.

As soon as he left the city, Yan Zheng looked at the direction and wanted to walk towards his destination.After walking a few steps, he realized that something was wrong. He turned his head and saw that the three masters and servants of Ying Chen were still in place and did not take a step.

He backed up strangely again, looking at them, to be precise, at their boss: "What's wrong?"

Don't you want to do something?Nothing.Maybe it was because the eyes were too obvious, Yan Zheng was attacked by Xia Hong's death sight again.He spread his hands and pulled the corners of his mouth, saying: You go on, he won't say anything.Can't he just shut up?

Ying Chen stood on the spot, looked straight ahead, and said softly, "Come out."

Yan Zheng looked at him because he didn't understand what he said, so in just a short while, what did he miss?

Without giving him a chance to figure it out, the answer was revealed in front of Yan Zheng.A timid and weak figure appeared at the corner of the city wall, lying on the wall, looking at them timidly.

It was a little boy, about eleven or twelve years old. His clothes were tattered, his face was yellow and thin, and his face was dirty. It seemed that he had been hungry for a while.

Ying Chen frowned unobtrusively. Although he had always had no feelings, he inevitably softened his attitude towards children.

He knelt down and waved to the little boy: "Come here."

The little boy hesitated for a moment, stepped forward and looked at him a little scared.

The corners of Ying Chen's mouth raised slightly, showing a gentle smile, and stretched out his hand to Xia Hong, asking him to take out the sweet-scented osmanthus cake they brought out from the mansion.

Xia Hong moved the box containing the sweet-scented osmanthus cake to Ying Chen's side, and opened it while holding it.Ying Chen took a piece and handed it to the child.

The little boy hesitated for a while, but finally hunger prevailed, took the piece of sweet-scented osmanthus cake and ate it voraciously, finishing it in a few mouthfuls.After tasting the sweetness, he looked eagerly at the box containing the remaining sweet-scented osmanthus cake.

Ying Chen took the food box and put it in front of the boy: "Do you still want to eat?"

The little boy nodded without hesitation, and said, "Yes."

Hearing the answer, Ying Chen smiled even brighter, chuckled, and handed a piece of sweet-scented osmanthus cake to the little boy, letting him listen while eating.

"If you want to continue eating, tell me why you follow me, okay?" Ying Chen paused, then added: "Tell me why, the rest is yours."

The little boy glanced at him, a blush appeared on his yellow face, and he seemed a little embarrassed: "Brother is handsome, so powerful, I saw that my brother immediately knocked that vicious uncle's knife away. I want my brother Help us."

Everyone in their village fell ill. At first it was the uncle who lived next door. Later, the uncle, the second uncle, and his parents all got that strange disease. The doctors in the village didn’t like it. All gone, only him and his sister are left at home.

Hearing that the imperial court distributed disaster relief today, he was the only surviving male in his family, so he followed the village chief and the others, but he didn't expect that the disaster relief funds were simply a cover, and the things distributed were all old and moldy things.The village head and the others quarreled with them.

He was young and couldn't get in, so he could only stand aside. Because of his stature, no one noticed his existence, so they saw the actions of the fierce uncle, and also saw Ying Chen standing next to him make a move.

Out of instinct, he followed, hoping that the other party could help them.As long as you can help him, let him do anything.He knows that there is no free pie in the world, as long as it can be achieved, even if it takes his life, he will have no complaints.

After getting the answer, regardless of whether it is true or not, Ying Chen kept his promise and handed the remaining osmanthus cake to the little boy: "Eat it."

After Ying Chen handed the food box to the little boy and stood up, Luo Hanzhuo clicked his tongue twice.

"I didn't expect this kid to be quite discerning, and he picked the leader among us all at once." Luo Hanzhuo said regretfully, "I can help too, why didn't you ask me?"

Yan Zheng glanced at him, and taunted him mercilessly: "Just you? Yes, Prime Minister Luo has no other skills, but his acting skills... are top-notch!"

Luo Hanzhuo glanced at him, but he didn't understand, did they have any enmity?Didn't you say a few words when we first met?As for being so vengeful?
